The bodyguards' responsibility was to protect their safety. They had stayed out of sight before, as there had been no danger. But now that danger was clearly present, they stepped forward.
With the bodyguards' assistance, their retreat was much faster.
In no time, they were back at their temporary shelter, the interstellar-era tent they had purchased.
Madam Yu was surprised to see them return so quickly. Aunt Zhang couldn't help but ask directly, "Why are you back so soon?"
"Did you find a water source?" Aunt Zhang asked happily.
"No, there was danger," Shu Shu said in a clear voice.
Danger?
Upon hearing this, Aunt Zhang immediately tensed up. She cautiously peeked outside and then said nervously, "How could there be danger? What did you encounter?"
It had to be said that Aunt Zhang was nervous at this moment, extremely nervous. This was her first time on a planet that had just been purchased and was not yet developed, and she felt a bit uneasy.
"There's a water source not far away, but there are mutated sloths near the water," Lu Wanqing said.
"What are sloths?" Madam Yu asked blankly.
Lu Wanqing thought for a moment and then explained, "I don't know what mutated sloths are like in the interstellar era, but in ancient Earth times, sloths looked a lot like monkeys. They moved very slowly on land, but in water, they were very powerful. They liked to drag passersby into the water. Many people in the folk referred to them as water ghosts."
"Ah!" Madam Yu exclaimed, frightened. "Is it that terrifying?"
"For the time being, we'll stay inside and not go out. I'll check what to do," Lu Wanqing said.
Madam Yu nodded quickly. "Okay, okay."
Aunt Zhang also nodded in agreement but remained silent.
Entering the room, Lu Wanqing wanted to turn off the recording sphere. However, the moment she opened her optical computer, she suddenly remembered something. If there was really danger on this planet, keeping the live stream on would allow people outside to know immediately if something happened and come to their rescue.
Lu Wanqing decided to continue the live stream, but she still had another matter to investigate.
A planet that had just been purchased had dangers on it; what should she do?
It had to be said that the internet was very useful in any era. Lu Wanqing found a lot of information with a quick search, but after reading it, she felt helpless.
Buying a house was fun for a while, but renovating it was like going through hell. This was an unspeakable pain for many ordinary humans in the 21st century. She never expected that now, in the distant interstellar era of the year 3000, she would encounter a similar pain.
It was easy to buy a planet, but developing it was not!
Simply put: Money!
Two words: Spending money!!!
Three words: Extremely expensive!!!
A planet, once purchased, was in its most primitive state. Everything inside had to be handled by the buyer.
The so-called handling, the most important and the first thing to do, was to inspect the planet, record all dangerous species, and then find a way to deal with them.
What to do?
Lu Wanqing's mind began to work. As she thought, she looked at her optical computer balance and felt... heartache.
She had a lot of money before, but after paying the down payment for the Water and Land Planet, only a little was left.
She originally thought this money would be enough, but now, calculating it, it seemed to be far from enough.
Perhaps she needed to find a way to make money!
She had been in the interstellar era for more than two years, almost three. She had lived a very carefree life and had been very lucky. Money and all sorts of resources had come to her naturally. This was the first time she felt she lacked money, and she lacked it severely, extremely severely!
"Mommy?" Just as Lu Wanqing finished her research and was deep in thought, a small head suddenly peeked in from the doorway. Little Yu Shu looked at her with confusion.
"Mommy, what are you doing in the room?" Little Yu Shu asked curiously, her dark eyes wide open.
Lu Wanqing snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Shu Shu, smiling. "Mommy was just thinking about how to make money."
Make money?
Little Yu Shu's eyes widened. She was small, but the Yu family's biggest problem recently was a lack of money!
Her father still owed Mommy a lot of money!
Father and Grandma also didn't have money to pay Grandma Zhang's salary!
Their family also lacked money, a lot of it!
"How to make money?" Little Yu Shu thought, and then quickly became excited, her eyes widening, looking at Mommy with anticipation.
Mommy was so smart, she must have a way to make money, right?
Then she could learn from Mommy and help Father and Grandma earn some money too!
At this moment, Lu Wanqing didn't know that Little Yu Shu, at the tender age of six, was already planning to learn how to make money with her, to support her father and grandmother!
"Mommy hasn't thought of it yet. I'll tell you when I figure it out," Lu Wanqing said with a smile.
"Ah?" Little Yu Shu was bewildered, but then the little one quickly reacted and said, "Then can Mommy tell me when you think of it?"
Lu Wanqing was amused. She couldn't help but pinch Little Yu Shu's nose and ask with a smile, "Shu Shu wants to make money too?"
The cub's eyes were shining so brightly, as if she really wanted to make money. Lu Wanqing found it amusing.
"Yes!" Little Yu Shu promised seriously.
"Pfft... Hahahaha..." Lu Wanqing couldn't help but burst into laughter. Shu Shu was too adorable!
Lu Wanqing laughed until her stomach hurt. When she turned back, she saw that Shu Shu was still watching her.
Lu Wanqing thought for a moment and quickly said, "Okay, if Mommy thinks of a way, I'll share it with Shu Shu first!"
Little Yu Shu's eyes lit up instantly. She nodded heavily. "Okay!"
So cute!
Indeed, her own daughter, without doing anything, could melt Mommy's heart with just a few words!
Lu Wanqing felt she couldn't bear it and scooped Shu Shu up, spinning her around happily.
Little Yu Shu was also super happy. Hugging her mommy, she loved her mommy so much!
Both mother and daughter were utterly charmed by each other. In the live stream, many viewers couldn't bear it, their hearts pounding in their chests.
"Ahhhh, I can't take it anymore, I can't take it anymore! How can the goddess and her cub's interaction be so sweet? I'm going to die of sweetness!"
"My heavens, such a cute cub, such a loving mommy. Goddess Wanqing's actions make me think I could do it too, and then find someone to marry and have a cub quickly, boohoo."
"Hahahaha, the person upstairs is too funny. Can you perform a live birth right now?"
"To be honest, seeing the interaction between Goddess Wanqing and her many cubs has really swayed me. I really want a cub. I just don't know if the child born after I get married will be as cute, as smart, and as adorable as Goddess Wanqing's cubs, ahhh!"
