Chapter 111: Long-Lost Earth
Two days later, Duan Ming looked at the blue planet in the distance. In this vast universe, blue is always a color that makes people feel at home, because it is the color of the human mother planet.
But when the Death Battleship got closer and closer to the planet, the gray-white color on it began to become obvious. This is because humans have been focusing on development for millions of years, but have ignored the natural environment of the Earth. By the time humans realized it, the Earth was already riddled with holes.
The last time I saw the Earth was when Duan Ming flew away from the Earth as a pioneer of the seventh domain. In a blink of an eye, it has been more than half a year.
Duan Ming called Ai Xiaoxing and told her that his battleship had arrived at the Earth, and asked her to send someone to pick him and Tang Yaqing up.
As a pioneer, you are not allowed to return to the Earth without permission. If the Death Battleship moves forward, it will be identified as an invader by the Earth's defense system, so Xingya Group has to send a spacecraft to pick it up.
Half an hour later, a medium-sized spaceship of Xingya Group came near the Death Battleship. Duan Ming and his partner boarded the spaceship and told Feng Xing to hover near the terrain in the next few days and contact him naturally when he left.
Xingya Group's spaceship passed through the atmosphere and slowly fell to the ground. The countless high-rise buildings not far from the landing base made Duan Ming excited.
Earth, I'm back!
"Our chairman is busy and can't pick you up in person. She told me to take you around Earth for a while and invite you two to go there at the next high-level meeting of the group."
After leaving the landing base, a red and black bulletproof car was already waiting there. The driver was Tang Yu, an employee of Xingya Group and a direct descendant of the Tang family. Speaking of which, he was also Tang Yaqing's cousin.
After getting in the car, Duan Ming decided to go to see the head of the Tang family first. After all, there were many things on this trip to Earth that needed the help of the head of the Tang family.
There are no countries on Earth, but 26 regions are divided according to 26 letters, and the Tang family is now in Zone G, not far from the landing base.
Entering Zone G, the car stopped under a building with dozens of floors. Duan Ming and the other two got out of the car and looked up at the building. There were various corporate signs on it. In the most inconspicuous corner, Duan Ming found the target he was looking for.
Tang Family Metal Shop.
Once upon a time, the Tang family was a giant in the metal industry, but now there is only a small shop left. The guilt for the Tang family rose again in Duan Ming's heart.
Entering the building, taking the elevator, the elevator stopped on the 23rd floor, the elevator door opened, and opposite the door was a magazine. Tang Yu pointed to the innermost direction of this floor.
"The head of the family is over there."
Walking to the small office with the sign of Tang Family Metal Shop at the back, Duan Ming heard the noise inside before he entered.
"This order is for 30 kilograms of metal. Why is it printed on this contract that it is 40 kilograms? Do you know how much the extra 10 kilograms can be sold for? Get out and reprint it for me!"
Duan Ming remembered this voice. It was Tang Yaqing's second uncle, Tang Chen.
Duan Ming took a deep breath and walked into the office.
"Buy metal? The metal of our Tang family is in the whole..."
Tang Chen's voice, which was subconsciously receiving the customer, stopped halfway, and was thrown into Tang Yaqing's arms.
"Second uncle! Yaqing missed you so much!"
Tang Chen's body was stunned for a long time, and then he touched Tang Yaqing's head with trembling hands.
"You girl still know how to come back? Second uncle almost thought you were sold by Duan Ming!"
The muscles at the corners of Duan Ming's mouth trembled slightly twice, and he coughed twice. Tang Chen realized that Duan Ming was here too.
Tang Chen shouted with a dark face: "Come here! Get this kid out! Our Tang family store is small and can't accommodate the big Buddha of Duan family's Duan family master!"
Many of the Tang family's children present did not know Duan Ming, but they had all heard of him. After all, the Tang family's current situation has a lot to do with Duan Ming.
Several Tang family children stepped forward and looked at Duan Ming with displeasure.
"Master Duan, please leave."
Duan Ming was really helpless. It was not right to stay or leave. At this moment, a voice sounded from the innermost office.
"Is Yaqing back?"
The office door opened and the master of the Tang family walked out. Compared with the last time Duan Ming met with the master of the Tang family, the master of the Tang family was obviously much older.
"Grandpa!"
Tang Yaqing threw herself into the arms of the master of the Tang family, tears could not stop flowing. The master of the Tang family looked at Tang Yaqing kindly and patted her shoulder gently.
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back."
Five minutes later, in the office of the Tang family, Duan Ming stood there, Tang Chen still stared at him maliciously, while the Tang family and Tang Yaqing were chatting about the recent experiences of the Duan family.
"I heard from Yaqing's mother that you returned to Earth this time to prepare for the marriage certificate?"
Tang Chen asked Duan Ming in a low voice, and Duan Ming bowed slightly and replied: "Yes, second uncle."
A strong hand patted Duan Ming's shoulder heavily.
"Who is your second uncle? I don't know what Yaqing was possessed by, but she fell in love with you, but remember, even if you marry Yaqing, I, Tang Chen, will not recognize you as a member of my Tang family."
Although Tang Chen's words were not loud, they were still heard clearly by the Tang family and Tang Yaqing.
"Second uncle! Why are you..."
Tang Yaqing stood up and wanted to explain something for Duan Ming, but was stopped by a look from Tang Chen.
"Do you still remember your promise?"
Hearing Tang Chen's question, Duan Ming frowned, then nodded.
"Just remember it. When you fulfill your promise and let my Tang family return to glory, you don't need Duan Ming to toast me. I, Tang Chen, will write your name into the genealogy of my Tang family!"
Duan Ming bowed his head deeply. After a long time, he raised his head and looked at Tang Chen with a serious face.
"In half a year, within half a year, I, Duan Ming, will make the name of the Tang family, together with the Duan family, feared by everyone!"
Hearing Duan Ming's words, Tang Chen was stunned and stared at Duan Ming's eyes.
"Okay, Chen'er, Yaqing hasn't been back for a long time. You take her to prepare with the clansmen. No business today, welcome Duan Ming and Yaqing!"
Tang Chen and Tang Yaqing left the office, leaving only Duan Ming and the head of the Tang family.
"You ventured to Earth Star. In addition to Xingqing Group and getting the certificate, there are other things, right?"
As the head of the Tang family said, he pointed to a chair beside him and motioned Duan Ming to sit down.
Duan Ming sat over and said, "Grandpa, I came to Earth Star and I need your help with something."
"What is it?"
"For the next development of the Duan family, I need to go to the Earth Union and obtain permission to immigrate to the Fire Rock Beast Base!"
