Chapter 718: Chapter 572: The Situation_4
"But are we just going to let them wander around our city?"
"It’s fine, we don’t have anything secretive, just make sure they don’t get close to our ICSW (Life Gene Laboratory) area. That’s our top-secret area, let them do whatever they want elsewhere, they won’t stay for long anyway."
Beilo replied indifferently.
"Understood."
Xiao Mi said and then left the room.
Watching Xiao Mi’s retreating figure, Beilo’s expression revealed a thoughtful look. After talking with Spade, she found that the Federation’s politicians were more stable than she had anticipated.
It seemed they weren’t easy to fool, so the work on misdirection needed to be refined.
On the main streets of Green Gore City, Su Mo and Rose found themselves in a baffled state. Since they left the controlled area and entered the bustling main street, they realized they had overlooked something.
They had overlooked the Yanas residents’ curiosity about them as foreigners.
Everywhere they went, almost everyone turned to look at them.
Su Mo said uncomfortably to Rose in a low voice,
"They keep staring at us; we can’t do anything."
"What do you mean we can’t do anything, change your perspective, we’re just here to find good food, look, that stall over there seems quite nice."
Rose responded with a laugh and then took Su Mo by the hand and headed to the stall.
Su Mo felt a bit helpless, as Rose truly treated the situation as if they were just ordinary tourists shopping.
Soon, they arrived at a fruit stall displaying various odd-shaped fruits.
"What kind of fruits are these?"
Rose asked.
But the stall owner didn’t respond; Rose looked at her puzzledly.
The stall owner was a young woman with pointed ears, staring blankly at Su Mo.
With a slight smile, Rose said to Su Mo,
"You seem quite charming, clean and fresh, it looks like you’ve hit their aesthetic just right."
"Not at all, don’t talk nonsense."
Su Mo was somewhat speechless.
"I’m not talking nonsense, look, she’s been staring at you and ignoring her business."
Rose motioned Su Mo to take a look.
Listening to Rose, Su Mo looked more carefully and indeed found it just as Rose had described. The other person was continuously staring at him, which made him feel a bit uneasy and he called out,
"Boss?"
The young woman suddenly snapped back to reality, a hint of blush on her face.
"Sorry, I didn’t mean to stare."
"No worries, what are these fruits?"
Su Mo said nonchalantly.
"This one is Honey Fruit, this one is Five-Leaf Aroma..."
The woman said somewhat excitedly.
"We’ll take some of each, make it into two portions."
Su Mo pointed at seven or eight different fruits.
"Okay."
The woman took out thick paper bags and packed two full bags for Su Mo and Rose.
"How much is it?"
Su Mo asked.
"There’s no charge, it’s been arranged that you don’t need to pay for anything."
The young woman quickly waved her hand.
"No, we still need to pay."
Su Mo said and immediately pulled out a 10 Star Coin note and placed it on the stall.
"That’s too much, I can’t change that."
The woman saw the 10 Star Coin and her face showed disbelief. After all, her entire fruit stall wasn’t even worth one Star Coin!
"No worries, keep the change, we don’t mind."
Su Mo said, holding the two bags of fruits as he left, not because he liked being wasteful, but because the lowest denomination Spade had provided was 10 Star Coins.
Moreover, Spade had instructed him not to diminish the prestige of the Federation.
’Acting like the lord using public funds’ was something Su Mo knew well.
As Su Mo and Rose left the stall, many Yanas locals gathered around, staring at the 10 Star Coin in amazement.
"These foreign guests are so rich, spending Star Coins without even blinking."
"And that guy is really handsome too!"
"Hey, the orders from above expressly forbid harassing them."
"Pursuing a lady, that’s called harassment, but who said it’s harassment to pursue a guy? That’s called romance."
A few excited young women exclaimed.
"Sisters, let’s go!"
"Okay."
...
At that moment, Su Mo, holding the two bags of fruits, took one out and took a bite, finding it incredibly sweet and sour.
His eyes lit up as he handed one to Rose.
"Try this, it tastes really good."
Rose took a bite and said, "It’s very good; if we bring this fruit to the Federation, the price can easily multiply by hundreds. Actually, this is a kind of resource. We don’t need to purposely observe anything; just pay attention to these unique features."
Hearing Rose, Su Mo roughly understood. She was reminding him that they were there to explore the other civilization, not like a military mission purposefully spying, but fundamentally understanding the civilization’s traits.
To identify their strengths and potentially profitable aspects.
