Transmigrated into a villainous guide who picks up bargains, a useless person is transformed into a

The flying vehicle that Lu Weiliang was riding in was specially dispatched by the Ministry of Commerce and took a special route, so there was no traffic jam on the way.

As soon as she got out of the car, she saw a magnificent archway and three people eagerly waiting beneath it.

She had expected to receive preferential treatment, but she didn't expect to be greeted by the department head in person. After all, there were three elderly people opposite her, and adhering to the idea of ​​respecting the elderly and caring for the young, she didn't delay and quickly walked over.

Minister of Culture and Tourism Resen was the first to go over and greet them.

"Director Lu, we've been waiting for you for ages! I'm Lei Sen from the Ministry of Culture and Tourism." He then pointed to the two smiling elderly men behind him: "This is Minister of Commerce, Garde, and that is Minister of Agriculture, Jensen."

Before coming here, Lu Weiliang had done some research. The average age of interstellar people is around 500 years old. The three people in front of her are all over 300 years old. Although they are still considered middle-aged in interstellar society, according to the calculation of Earth, these three are the age of her great-grandfather.

Lu Weiliang smiled slightly and quickly bowed.

"Greetings, elders. I am late and I am truly sorry to have troubled you three to wait for me at the door."

Gard, a straightforward person, said, "Oh my, you're a much better kid than I thought. I don't know how those rumors spread online, hahaha..." Before he could finish speaking, Jason glared at him.

"Why are you saying these things when the child has just arrived? They're already so tactless!"

"That's right, that's right," Lei Sen echoed, then led Lu Weiliang into the building. "Child, let's go upstairs first, important business comes first."

Lu Weiliang obediently followed behind, completely unaware of the intense eye contact between the three.

Leisen: Humble and polite, completely different from what is said online. I have watched the cooking videos more than a dozen times. This kid will definitely be successful in the future. He is not afraid of doubts and is quite like me back then.

Jason: We've really struck gold this time. Director Lu was the Empire's top director before, and her spirit is beyond question. With her as our spokesperson, I can't even imagine how many sentries will be dedicated to agriculture this year.

Ignoring their gazes, Gard fixed his eyes on Lu Weiliang with an incredibly gentle and kind look, even more affectionate than when he looked at his own daughter.

As he looked at it, he couldn't help but start daydreaming.

His youngest son, who was an SSS-rank officer, was not yet married. Although he could not match the commander's outstanding military achievements, he was still a rare talent in the empire. It would be a wonderful thing if he could marry this child.

Moreover, their business department is currently in a very poor state, arguably the worst performing of all departments in the empire. If this child were to join, their recruitment this year might go much more smoothly.

Thinking of this, he silently moved closer to Lu Weiliang, but before he could speak, the other two had already noticed.

Everyone knows that the old man has an outstanding youngest son, so they're wary of this.

The two reacted quickly. Jason stepped aside to block Gard's path, while Rayson gestured for Lu Weiliang to enter the conference room smoothly.

Garde's efforts were in vain.

After the servants served the tea and quietly withdrew, Gard, as the host, spoke first: "Director Lu, let's skip the small talk and get straight to the point. In my capacity as Minister of Commerce, I formally invite you to be the image ambassador for our three ministries. I hope you will consider it. As you know, the Empire's economy and trade are far less prosperous than the Federation's..."

Jansen sighed, "Not only trade, but agriculture is the same. Up to 70% of the empire's land is polluted, with only about 20% being arable. And even that 20% isn't fully developed. Compared to farming, the sentries prefer to go to the battlefield to deal with pollutants, indirectly causing the empire's land to be severely underdeveloped. Naturally, the price of food has skyrocketed, making it unaffordable for ordinary people and unavailable to nobles..."

Leisen added, "It's a vicious cycle: the lack of movement of people leads to an economic downturn, which in turn affects food prices. So we urgently need a spokesperson to correct the current state of affairs in the empire. We've considered many people for this position, but none of them were ideal. Your appearance has given us renewed hope."

"We watched your live stream, and I also gifted you over 100 million Star Coins..." Gard subtly mentioned his gift-giving, "I did some research, and the food you make has a very high audience appeal. You could say that it can be enjoyed by people of all social classes. Currently, you are the only one in the Empire who has achieved this level of accessibility."

The other two glared at him irritably. Did he have to bring up the gifts he sent? They sent gifts too, and they sent just as many as he did.

Gard: "Child, we hope you will grant our request; the future of the empire rests on your shoulders!"

The future of the empire?

Lu Weiliang suddenly felt that the burden on her shoulders was a bit heavy.

She understood the good intentions of these people, which were simply to boost the economy, but with her toxic character, was she sure she wouldn't mislead young people?

We must avoid accidentally dragging down the economy instead of boosting it.

The sentry who originally wanted to go farming saw that she was the spokesperson and resolutely rushed to the battlefield, which backfired and caused a disaster.

"that……"

"We'll pay." Jason was afraid the other party wouldn't agree; "Director Lu, don't worry, we won't use your image rights for nothing. Rest assured, you'll definitely like the terms we offer: an endorsement fee of 800 million per year, a government-funded trip to 31 planets, and a place to study at the Imperial Military Academy."

Gard once again became cunning, "Yes, child, my son is at the Imperial Military Academy, 22 years old, SSS-rank, and you are only 21, just the right age to study. You are a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman."

Jason coughed sharply to interrupt, then retorted in a low voice, "So you're the only one with a son?"

Gard raised his chin and nodded.

Yes, he's the only one among the three who has a son, and he's the only one with the opportunity to send his son over to build connections.

After a long silence, Lei Sen slowly sipped his tea. He seemed to have figured out the crux of the matter. "Director Lu, are you worried that those past negative comments might affect your endorsement deals?"

Lu Weiliang nodded obediently, "Yes."

Lei Sen laughed heartily: "I think you're overthinking it. Judging from the last live broadcast, most people have already changed their opinion of you. Besides, I don't think Director Lu is such a malicious person. Good wine needs no bush, and time will tell. There's no need to worry."

Although I know there's an element of flattery in those words, they just sound so nice.

Hearing this, Lu Weiliang straightened her back.

Leisen continued, "Moreover, since Director Lu's live stream ended, there are so many Sentinels online who want to marry you. You don't need to worry about your influence at all. Please trust our judgment."

Lu Weiliang stood up even straighter.

Gard leaned forward and asked again, "Guardian Deer, the future of the Empire depends on you. Think it over."
