1792 Gathering! The Constellation Society! (3)
“Why are you looking at me like this?” Yue Qiqiao asked curiously.
“What happened between the two of you when we weren’t around?” Situ Wan’er asked.
“What happened?” Yue Qiqiao was puzzled.
“Why are you acting like a housekeeper then?” Ji Haochen looked at Yue Qiqiao and w.a.n.g Teng with a sly grin.
“Look, everyone can tell.” Situ Wan’er smiled.
“Don’t talk nonsense. What housekeeper? I’m not like that. No way!” Yue Qiqiao quickly understood what they meant. She blushed and hurriedly denied it. She explained, “I’m only working so hard for the points.”
“That’s right, it’s just for the points.” Situ Wan’er nodded.
“That’s right. We understand that you’re doing it for the points.” Ji Haochen nodded.
Yue Qiqiao: …
She felt that she might not be able to explain herself clearly.
“Say something.”
She turned and caught w.a.n.g Teng wearing a smug grin as if he was enjoying the spectacle. This immediately ignited her frustration.
I’ve been running around like a horse and helping you come up with ideas, and you’re just sitting there watching the show!
Outrageous!
“What’s there to explain? I think a housekeeper is good. I need one,” w.a.n.g Teng replied without a hint of embarra.s.sment.
“Get lost. I don’t want to be your housekeeper.” Yue Qiqiao’s face turned redder.
“Hahaha…” Everyone burst into laughter.
“Brother w.a.n.g Teng, you’re amazing. You’ve already stolen Qiqiao’s heart.” Situ Wan’er gave w.a.n.g Teng a meaningful smile.
“w.a.n.g Teng, how about giving us some pointers? I’ve seen many beautiful ladies in the stellar academies. I need to make my move quickly,” Ji Haochen said.
“It’s very simple,” w.a.n.g Teng replied calmly.
Everyone’s attention was immediately drawn, especially the guys. Their ears perked up as they antic.i.p.ated his reply.
Although they maintained a calm expression.
Silence.
Everyone was left speechless for a moment, then they burst into laughter and started playfully scolding w.a.n.g Teng.
“Shameless!”
“Shameless!”
“w.a.n.g Teng, you’re so thick-skinned!”
“Huh? You noticed how thick my skin is?” w.a.n.g Teng was surprised.
They laughed and teased each other for a while before returning to the main topic.
“You all can also think about what you have that you can offer in exchange for points. It isn’t just about my pills and weapons.”
“Everyone has their specialties, and you can all leverage them. For example, Gaunt, you’re an expert in poisons. I’m sure there are plenty of people interested in that.”
“The person who contributes the item will get the larger share. That’s the principle of our Mutual Help a.s.sociation.”
w.a.n.g Teng said.
Gaunt had been silent all this while, but upon hearing w.a.n.g Teng’s words, his eyes lit up. Why didn’t he think of this before? It was like a sudden awakening.
Ji Haochen, Timothy, and the others started to ponder. It was as if a new path had been opened up before them.
“Let me back and think about it carefully,” Yu Yuanrui said.
“Can I sell my carrots?” Tu Xiaoba asked.
Everyone’s expression turned strange.
How could this young lady think of selling carrots?
Just imagine a group of martial warriors munching on carrots while battling. What a unique scene that would be.
“What’s with that expression? My carrots are filled with nutrients. Eating them can replenish your Force. They are even more effective than some pills, and I can sell them at a cheaper price,” Tu Xiaoba pouted.
“Replenish Force!” Everyone was stunned. The seemingly ordinary carrots in Tu Xiaoba’s hand had such benefits?
“If it can replenish Force and is better than normal pills, there will be a market for it.” w.a.n.g Teng glanced at Tu Xiaoba in surprise and nodded.
“I knew it!” Tu Xiaoba couldn’t be happier. She chuckled as she nibbled the carrot in her hand, “I took much effort to grow them.”
“I have a question,” w.a.n.g Teng said.
“Go ahead.” Tu Xiaoba was confident that she could answer all his queries.
“Will I fart after eating this carrot?” w.a.n.g Teng asked.
Tu Xiaoba: …
Fart?
She suddenly felt that the carrot in her hand wasn’t delicious any more.
“Pfft!” Everyone burst out laughing.
w.a.n.g Teng had such a bad sense of humor. How could he ask Tu Xiaoba this question?
A cute rabbit like her wouldn’t fart.
“You are the one who’s farting.” Tu Xiaoba’s chest heaved up and down in anger. She bared her teeth and wished she could rush over and bite w.a.n.g Teng.
“That’s good. I’m just worried that it will affect the sales,” w.a.n.g Teng said.
“Get lost. I don’t want to talk to you.” Tu Xiaoba turned her head to show that she didn’t want to speak to w.a.n.g Teng. This fellow was infuriating.
w.a.n.g Teng laughed. He found it quite amusing to tease the rabbit.
Afterward, the others enthusiastically engaged in discussions, brainstorming various ideas to earn points. They were all putting in their best effort to achieve their goal.
Everyone discussed for a few hours until the sky turned dark before they reluctantly called it a day. They prepared to leave.
Crafting all the rules and plans would take time. They couldn’t be perfected instantly.
w.a.n.g Teng could ask Round Ball for help. However, he felt that involving everyone directly would give them a greater sense of owners.h.i.+p so he decided to let them discuss and plan on their own.
“Anyway, what’s the name of our Mutual Help a.s.sociation?” Ji Haochen suddenly asked before he left.
“Oh right, I don’t think there’s a name yet,” Tu Xiaoba said.
“What good names do you have? Tell me,” w.a.n.g Teng said nonchalantly.
“Why don’t we call them the Rabbit Gang?” Tu Xiaoba thought for a moment and chuckled.
“Why don’t you call it Rabbit’s Den?” w.a.n.g Teng rolled his eyes at her. Others would laugh at them if they heard this name.
“Rabbit’s Den is fine. I like it,” Tu Xiaoba said.
“Keep quiet.” w.a.n.g Teng was speechless.
Everyone laughed. Tu Xiaoba was indeed a source of joy. She always managed to make them laugh.
“Why don’t we call it the Great Qian a.s.sociation?” Yu Yuanrui’s eyes gleamed.
“Not a good idea. In the future, people from other factions might join us. The Great Qian a.s.sociation is too region-specific,” Timothy glanced at Boret and said.
“You’re right.” Yu Yuanrui also noticed Boret’s presence after Timothy’s reminder. He understood and gave up the idea.
Initially, he wanted to gain some advantages for the Great Qian Empire.
After all, such factions formed within the academy generally held significant influence, especially when led by someone like w.a.n.g Teng. He believed that this force could go a long way and had limitless potential for the future.
It would be great if it could be named after the Great Qian Empire.
Unfortunately, the idea was rejected.
Of course, the main reason was because it wasn’t appropriate. If not, he would have insisted.
“That’s called… the Great Union?” Wade said, “The union of all great races.”
“It doesn’t sound good,” Tu Xiaoba replied.
“Alright.” Wade scratched his head.
Despite all the discussions, they couldn’t settle on a name. It was quite amusing how a single name could stump so many people.
“Why don’t we call it The Constellation Society?” w.a.n.g Teng had no choice but to think about it personally. In the end, he chose a name that was easy to remember.
“The Constellation Society!” Everyone’s eyes lit up. “This name is good!”
“Let’s call ourselves The Constellation Society!”
Little did this group of people know that the name they hastily decided on today would leave a remarkable legacy in the vast expanse of the universe in the future.
