Chapter 483 Extra: White Pearl's Troubles
************
......
Zhao Zheng felt that Bai Zhenzhu's "You're very good" was too perfunctory, more like sarcasm, which made him even more uneasy.
He wanted to say something more, such as reflecting on himself: "Besides being of average appearance, there may be other imperfections..."
Bai Zhenzhu replied firmly: "No."
"But......"
"no."
"but......"
"no."
"All right."
Zhao Zheng: A wise man knows when to yield.
Just then, the car leading the way slowed down noticeably, and the road widened on both sides, with guardrails, streetlights, and roadside trees appearing on both sides, turning in a clear direction.
Zhao Zheng's attention was instantly drawn to it.
The hovercar traversed the forest and arrived at the entrance of the termite manor.
Through the car window, at the end of the passageway was a wide garden wall formed by wrought iron railings and naturally wrapped vines.
The vines are slender and covered with abundant small red flowers, blooming like a waterfall. It's very beautiful. I don't know what variety it is; it might be a characteristic ornamental plant of Liernia.
The termite manor is built on the ground, and apart from having a few more trees outside, it is almost no different from other manors.
The flowering vines on the railings are carefully guided and pruned, forming a magnificent and vibrant natural flower wall that surrounds the manor's street trees.
The tall wrought iron gate creaked open, and several armed guards stood on both sides, saluting as their hovercars passed by.
After passing through the gate, the view suddenly opened up before me.
Zhao Zheng immediately recited "Peach Blossom Spring" in his mind.
A very spacious and magnificent manor.
There are almost no trees in the manor; all you see is a flat lawn and a driveway. The termite manor looks like a flat piece of land that has suddenly been carved out of the forest.
The manor's architecture is almost identical to that of the noble manors on the central planet of Liernia; they are all similarly luxurious, with layers upon layers arranged in a staggered and orderly manner.
The roof of the building is carved with family crests and historical reliefs, with very intricate and delicate brushstrokes. The white stone used has been eroded by wind and rain and turned yellow, but this does not affect its beauty at all. On the contrary, it makes it look very rich in history.
Countless covered bridges tightly connect these platforms and buildings, and various intricate passages form a complex three-dimensional network throughout the estate, which is extremely large and stretches as far as the eye can see.
These complex and old-fashioned items are only found in ancient families; newly rich families do not possess such traces of time.
This is not outdated; it is a symbol of old-fashioned nobility accumulated over a long period of wealth and power, like an antique that becomes more valuable with age.
In their elite family circles, seniority equates to higher status, while newer seniority results in lower status.
Ant tribe is a race with an extremely large population and significant internal differences, with many branches.
Among the ant tribes, only a few species possess offensive capabilities, such as bullet ants and army ants. These are the aggressive species within the ant tribe, lacking any other abilities; they are born solely for combat.
The ant army mainly consists of female ants of these species, possessing astonishingly aggressive and combat-specialized bodies. While their combat strength may not be in the top tier, it is still considerable.
Apart from these few fighting ants, the rest can basically be considered weak species, including termites.
However, the ant race is very large. If an individual member of a race is weak but the number of members is very large, it cannot be said to be a weak race.
The ant race has consistently ranked among the largest in terms of population size within the Zerg Empire. This massive population base brings unparalleled population dividends. In addition, the ant race is naturally characterized by extremely stable personality and a high degree of obedience to the collective will. They are able to attack wherever they are told, and no other race is more united than the ant race.
The termite race's main insect form is only 20 to 30 centimeters long, with a relatively thin carapace and weak body strength. They are semi-transparent and cute.
However, due to their stable personalities, large numbers, delicate appearance, low aggression, and unique architectural talents, termites are recognized as the leading race in the service and construction industries, and they live a relatively good life.
The service industry might sound like a doormat industry, but when it reaches the point of almost monopolizing the industry, who would dare say they are doormats?
Furthermore, the termite tribe has an innate intuition for structural mechanics and materials. They all know how to use the most natural conditions to construct sturdy, rational, and even artistic buildings. From microscopic, exquisite dwellings to macroscopic entire cities, the termite tribe can plan in an orderly manner and build them as solid as a rock.
Wherever cities are built, you can see the busy figures of termite engineers. Unless the employer is allergic to termites, it is impossible to do without their high-quality, low-cost, and efficient services.
Thanks to this unique talent, the termite clan lived quite well, accumulating considerable wealth and enjoying a high reputation within the empire.
Termites have a good status.
No advanced warrior race would be foolish enough to mock or provoke a termite colony, because they are not facing just one or two individuals, but a massive, united, wealthy behemoth that the Empire relies on.
Which nobleman's or high-ranking official's residence, or even the imperial palace, was not built without the help of termites?
Did you know they didn't leave any backup plans for your house?
Why are you provoking termites when you have nothing better to do?
The termite farm in front of Zhao Zheng at this moment is the most direct manifestation of the power and aesthetics of the termite race.
The termite manor is magnificent and imposing.
Open and outgoing, it's clear at a glance that this family is not timid or hesitant at all.
Zhao Zheng's posture, which had just straightened, shrunk by another three points.
Pearl never said their family was like that...
Marrying into a wealthy family must be incredibly stressful; I wonder how Major General Gao Tian coped with it back then.
As soon as their car stopped, a person ran towards the fountain in the garden in front of the manor.
"Uncle!"
She was a young female termite with a slender skeleton and light-colored hair typical of termites, except that Pearl's hair was white while hers was light gold.
She also has a pair of tea-green eyes.
Zhao Zheng looked on in surprise, "Ah, isn't that...?"
"Krim," White Pearl calmly replied, then gestured to the young man who had just run out, indicating to Zhao Zheng, "Say hello to him."
"Uncle," Krim bowed obediently to Zhao Zheng.
"Yes!" Zhao Zheng quickly replied.
Ah... After answering, Zhao Zheng looked at Pearl in surprise: Isn't this the little diplomat you brought with you?
"Krim is the son of the current head of the termite family, who is also my cousin. According to seniority, he should call me uncle," White Pearl explained to him.
He also emphasized: "But he didn't get into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs through connections; he got in on his own merit."
He had to explain this to everyone he met, and he got tired of explaining it.
