Chapter 424 Planning
However, Lu Yize also made a request to Vincent: "Don't reveal the supply channels for the time being."
Vincent could understand why he said that; he was envious of these fruits and vegetables, and if others saw them, they might cause quite a bit of trouble for this small planet.
They are still in the early stages, so they shouldn't reveal too much for now. As for whether Vincent can handle all of this, or whether the business will be coveted by others, there's no need to worry too much about that.
Vincent's family happens to be one of the eight great families. They were once among the top three, but have gradually declined and fallen to the bottom. However, even a fallen camel is bigger than a horse.
It wouldn't be too difficult for him to protect some of his assets.
News also came from Vincent's mother. It wasn't complicated; she was determined to restore their family's former glory, so she strongly refused when he wanted to become Vivian's partner.
Although Vivian also comes from a prominent family, she is not one of the eight great families. Moreover, her family focuses on economics and is relatively weak in other aspects, so she cannot provide the assistance that Vincent's mother wants.
In addition, Vivian's supernatural talent is not very good, with a supernatural level of only three. Whether she can get pregnant with Vincent's child is one thing, but the talent of the child she gives birth to is another.
The reason why Riva was abandoned by the Insect King at birth was because her mental strength level was not high, which meant that she would have a hard time reaching the ninth rank.
The more established and prestigious a family is, the more it values the upbringing of its offspring. How could she accept that her outstanding child would give birth to a less outstanding descendant?
The thought that such descendants would affect the future was unacceptable to her. Her family had already begun to decline and absolutely could not be allowed to continue down this path.
However, Vincent was determined to be with Vivian, and their relationship had reached a point where further conflict would lead to irreconcilable differences. That's why Vincent's mother reluctantly accepted Vivian at that time.
She thought that after so many years, she should have come to terms with it, and Vincent had long since thought it through. His family was not lacking in outstanding descendants, so even if he and Vivian could not have outstanding children, it didn't matter. He could select outstanding children from the family to raise.
He had mentioned this to his mother, who always told him to decide for himself. But when Vincent looked at the investigation results, he realized that his mother had never given up on the idea of him having an outstanding child.
No, to be precise, his mother didn't care about him or the child, and she didn't care about the family either. What she cared about was whether her bloodline could get all the resources. She couldn't hand over the benefits to others.
His partner was an unappreciated daughter from one of the eight great families. They hit it off immediately, seeking both mutual benefit and the prospect of having an outstanding offspring.
They discussed making the child the point of conflict between them, and then escalating the situation in a few years, which would inevitably separate them. If they really didn't want to separate, then they would have to kill Vivian. This kind of emerging small family should be self-aware.
Seeing all these investigation results, Vincent found it ironic. He handed them over to the family patriarch to deal with, avoiding this unnecessary trouble.
He also wanted to see what choice their family patriarch would make.
Vincent's anger gradually subsided when the news arrived that the young lady from the aristocratic family had been forced into an arranged marriage and that his mother had been sentenced to imprisonment, along with a pile of compensation.
Vincent shared the news about the main planet with Vivian, reassuring her to focus on recuperating. Vivian breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the news.
Vincent also told her the specifics: the reason his mother was imprisoned was not only because of the children, but also because she had harmed the family's interests for her own benefit and probably had done a lot behind the scenes.
After resolving the trouble, Vincent instructed his wife to take good care of her health with Sheng Xue. Vivian was initially in a bad mood, but after wandering around the hospital for a while, she became very interested in the traditional Chinese medicine practitioners there.
It's interesting no matter how you look at it, and since she's also a plant-based species, it's a perfect fit. Old Zhang is also generous in sharing some basic knowledge, but of course, he won't share the core information with these aliens.
Old Zhang was still a bit old-fashioned at heart, which is why he was unwilling to share good things with other ethnic groups. He was generous to his students, but he was secretive about sharing with other ethnic groups.
Vivian noticed it, but she could understand. The Federation values cultural intellectual property rights very much, so although she felt regret, she did not cross the line.
After taking Vivian's pulse, Old Zhang gave her a bowl of Chinese medicine, which made Vivian's tongue feel so bitter. She never expected that the people on this small planet could not only make delicious food, but also make such awful-tasting water.
Seeing her refuse, Old Zhang continued to persuade her, "Good medicine tastes bitter. Your health has been ruined by that unknown medicine. If you still want to have children, you need to take internal medicine and treat external ailments. Sheng Xue and I will help you."
Sigh, Vivian, who still really wanted the cub, could only pinch her nose and drink it down. Vincent frowned as he watched from the side, and Old Zhang also showed it to him.
"He's as strong as an ox, but he can't even protect his own wife. In our human world, that's a very shameful thing." As he spoke, Old Zhang covered his face with his sleeve, looking ashamed.
Vincent looked ashamed, but Old Zhang didn't continue to make sarcastic remarks. He just patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay. You're all still young. If you work hard, you'll still have a chance."
After awakening their superpowers, they will remain at their peak for a long time. Although Zhang Lao is quite old, he clearly felt that he was getting younger and younger after awakening his superpowers, and his physical functions gradually returned to those of a young adult.
Vincent and Vivian are younger than him, so there's nothing wrong with that. With some effort, they can definitely have a child. Besides, with him and Sheng Xue working together, Vivian's minor health issues are actually not difficult to resolve.
Moreover, they knew that this matter could be easily resolved by other doctors in the Federation, but the current situation was that Vincent did not trust those hospitals that had long been infiltrated by family forces, which was why he accepted his wife's treatment at their hospital.
That's great! Of course it's great. As long as they help Vincent solve this problem, their cooperation will be even more solid.
Lu Yize privately asked Sheng Xue how long it would take for Vivian's illness to be cured, and Sheng Xue revealed that it would actually only take a week.
Vivian actually knew about Sheng Xue's special ability when she disembarked from the starship.
The whole thing they did later, having Morse bring them over, was just part of their plan to prolong the time Vincent and Vivian stayed with them.
