Chapter 636 I was wrong
Chao Bufan said, "The moon was originally the most ideal place, but many countries have already built space stations on the moon, so let's build a space station on Saturn instead."
The eldest brother grunted in agreement and said, "Then let's go with Saturn. We'll build a space station on Saturn. Bufan, who do you think would be the most suitable person for us to send to the Cosmic Union as its deacon?"
Chao Bufan said, "Boss, you know what, most people really can't handle this. I think Elder Lan is the most suitable."
Upon hearing this, Elder Lan asked in surprise, "Me? Extraordinary? You're not joking, are you?"
The boss said, "Bufan, tell me your reasons."
Chao Bufan smiled and said, "Elder Lan, you've been researching aliens and spaceships for quite some time now, so you should know a thing or two. It would be more appropriate for you to go."
The eldest brother nodded and then said, "Elder Lan, what Bu Fan said makes some sense. Then you will represent our Earth to serve as the chairman of the Universal Union's tribunal!"
Old Lan gave a bitter smile and said, "Elder brother, I'm afraid I can't do it! I'm almost a hundred years old, how many more years can I live? You should choose someone more capable!"
Old Lan was speaking from the heart, after all, he is ninety-eight years old this year.
Chao Bufan laughed and said, "Age is not a problem. Extraterrestrial beings are often over a thousand years old. In their eyes, you are just like a three-year-old child!"
Old Lan said, "How can we humans compare to extraterrestrial beings? I'm old now and don't have many years left to live. It's really not appropriate for me to go, unless..."
"Unless what?" the boss asked.
Old Lan glanced at Professor Gao Tian and then said, "Unless I can live for several more decades, I will be able to contribute more to our country, but right now I am willing but unable to do so!"
Chao Bufan nodded and said, "Elder Lan, you can rest assured to do your job well. I guarantee that it will be as you wish."
"Really?" Old Lan asked in surprise.
Chao Bufan nodded and smiled, saying, "If you go with Professor Gao Tian, then Professor Gao Tian will be your assistant."
Professor Gao Tian paused for a moment, then asked curiously, "Am I going too?"
Chao Bufan grunted in agreement and said, "You two have worked together for decades, so you must have a very good working relationship. Therefore, you two should go together."
Professor Gao Tian glanced at Elder Lan with excitement, then nodded in unison and said, "Okay, let's go."
Chao Bufan smiled and then said, "Boss, I've already chosen the men for you. As for how many troops to send, that's none of my business."
The eldest brother nodded and said, "Elder Lan, I will give you two divisions of men, and you will be in charge of them."
Lan Laodao said, "Yes, boss."
Chao Bufan said, "I will personally escort them there."
The old man said, "Only you can do this."
……
After the leader and everyone else sat together and chatted about other things, they returned to Beijing, leaving only Lao Tang and the others still there.
Old Tang said, "Bu Fan, we'll go to outer space with you sometime to see what the creatures there look like, so we can broaden our horizons."
Chao Bufan said, "If you want to go, then go! I'll take you to broaden your horizons."
Just then, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Baihe and the others on the surveillance video. Seeing them carrying large and small bags, he was overjoyed and pointed at the people on the surveillance video, saying, "Old Tang, do you see that? They're all a bunch of spendthrift women. If I hadn't taken the money from the Origin Star Empire's treasury, your daughters would probably be starving! You guys are really something, you're all my fathers-in-law now, and you don't even know how to say a few good words for me."
Old Tang chuckled and said, "You little rascal, give up your shady ideas! Do you think we don't know what you're up to? The money's still inside you; who knows how much you'll take out later!"
That's true. After all, this massive amount of gold is still inside Chao Bufan's internal space. If he's in a good mood, he might hand over a larger portion to the country; if he's in a bad mood, he might only give out one-thousandth or so. This guy has his own principles; generally speaking, he only wants to share good things with his family.
Chao Bufan smiled faintly and said, "That's not very interesting. I did promise the boss that I would hand over four-fifths to the country. I'm not the kind of person who goes back on his word. If the boss accuses me of 'deceiving the emperor,' that would be terrible!"
"Alright," the old commander scolded, "you brat, you still remember we're your fathers-in-law?"
"Old Chief, what do you mean by that?" Chao Bufan said mysteriously, "You are my father-in-law, oh, do you mean you want to give your daughter to me for free? That's great, why not take it?"
"What are you talking about?"
Just then, Baihe and the others came in, and Chao Bufan's words were heard by them without missing a single one. Without saying a word, Tang Qianqian and Fangfang grabbed Chao Bufan's ears from either side and said angrily in unison, "What do you mean by giving it to you for free? Say it again if you dare."
The sudden pain made Chao Bufan grimace and cry out in agony, "Ouch, it hurts!"
"What did you just say? Say it again if you dare," Tang Qianqian said reproachfully.
"Ouch, ouch, it hurts! Wives, I didn't say anything! Please, my two wives, have mercy on me!" Chao Bufan pleaded.
Fangfang said irritably, "Didn't you say anything? Then why did I just hear someone say that you're giving your daughter away for free?"
"You misheard me, I didn't say that." Chao Bufan quickly tried to "defend" himself, hoping to get away with it.
"You really didn't say anything?" Tang Qianqian asked.
"I really didn't say," Chao Bufan quickly replied.
"You said it, we all heard it," Lily said indifferently, as if to say, "You deserve it."
“We heard it too,” He Yifei and the others said.
"That's what you said," the old commander said seriously. "Kid, you have to be honest. What's said is said, and so many people heard it! So, lying is a shameful act and will be despised." He couldn't help but raise an eyebrow teasingly as he spoke, his meaning couldn't be clearer.
"You..." Chao Bufan was almost spitting blood when he died. He then put on a bitter face and said with a "I surrender" look, "Okay! Wife, I was wrong."
"Then tell me, where did you go wrong?" Tang Qianqian demanded.
"Of course, I shouldn't have said things I shouldn't have said," Chao Bufan replied with an air of "sincerity."
