"Federal Weapons Bureau?" Lu Wanqing was surprised. Was that something she could participate in?
Mu Sijie smiled and said, "Don't worry, I've applied for top clearance for you. You'll join the Federal Supreme Weapons Bureau as a Super 3S frame mechanic. You'll have a lot of freedom, and unless the Federation is facing a life-or-death crisis, they can't force you to do anything or interfere with your freedom."
"The only condition is that you have to craft seven mechs for the seven legions, one Super 3S mech per legion!"
Lu Wanqing thought for a moment, then couldn't help but ask, "Are there any other benefits?"
She secretly rubbed her hands together and asked expectantly, "Like five insurances and one fund?"
Mu Sijie was stunned, then he laughed. He nodded, "Yes, and not only that, I've also applied for special privileges for you. I heard you wanted to buy a planet of your own?"
"I can have them directly approve a planet for you," Mu Sijie said.
Lu Wanqing's heart almost leaped out of her chest. Her eyes lit up, and she exclaimed excitedly, "Really?"
Seeing her happy, Mu Sijie chuckled, "Really!"
"Then I'll join!" Lu Wanqing agreed immediately without a second thought.
A planet!
That was a whole planet!
Amused, Mu Sijie handed her the appointment letter and said with a smile, "This is your appointment letter, it has your registration information. Go to the Federal Supreme Weapons Bureau to register an account, and then we'll go to the Federal Weapons Bureau together to register your identity."
"Okay!" Lu Wanqing quickly agreed.
"Thank you, Sijie, you're too kind!" Lu Wanqing looked at Mu Sijie, her voice full of emotion.
Mu Sijie looked at her sparkling eyes and inexplicably felt that she was very similar to Lan Lan at this moment. Or rather, Lan Lan might have inherited Lu Wanqing's genes. The expressions of mother and son when they were happy were truly alike!
"Why are you being so polite with me? Besides, this is a reward for your own abilities!" Mu Sijie said with a smile.
Mu Sijie wasn't lying. As a Super 3S mech mechanic, Lu Wanqing was the first person in the entire Federation. Even he couldn't achieve that. These powers and rewards were all deserved.
"And..." Mu Sijie thought, and spoke again, "Wanqing, regarding the Super 3S mech, and the news that the entire series of small Super 3S mechs you designed for the children will be on the market, I want to choose a suitable date to release the information as soon as possible."
Lu Wanqing hesitated upon hearing this, "But the mechs I designed for Xiao Shushu, and for the pirate cubs... haven't been finished yet."
She hadn't had time to make the mechs and give them to the children, and now they were going to release news about them going on sale. Would that be appropriate?
Mu Sijie also paused slightly. He apologized, "Sorry, Wanqing, it's just that this matter is too complicated. If we don't release some news soon, the Federation might truly fall into chaos."
Lu Wanqing: "???"
Mu Sijie looked at Lu Wanqing. He hesitated for a long time before finally deciding to tell her the truth.
The special status of the Mu family's mechs in the Federation, the outwardly harmonious yet inwardly competitive relationships between the seven legions, and the fact that the Wei family, where Wei Xingzhou belonged, managed the entire Federal Gene Bank, a position that everyone watched with great tension.
Even a slight inclination of their abilities towards a certain faction could make that faction suddenly powerful. Other factions would then be wary and afraid of them, and the consequence of this wariness and fear would be chaos. The entire Federation could be thrown into disarray because of this!
"Did the Zhongli family's incident this time happen because of me?" Lu Wanqing asked after listening to Mu Sijie's explanation.
Mu Sijie paused slightly. He neither confirmed nor denied it.
Lu Wanqing felt like she understood. She suddenly understood why Mu Sijie, Zhongli Feiyu, Wei Xingzhou, and Yu Nong had always insisted on not letting the children gather together, not letting them grow up together.
If Xiao Zhongli Yi and Xiao Mu Lan were together every day, would the external factions think that the Mu family and the Zhongli family were the closest, that the Mu family would exclusively provide the best mechs to the Zhongli family and the Seventh Legion when supplying mechs, and might even help the Mu family secretly tamper with the mechs of other legions, helping the Zhongli family eliminate their rivals?
And the special status of the Wei family was also something Lu Wanqing hadn't considered before. Their family managed the Federal Gene Bank. It sounded very powerful, and it was indeed easy to be feared by everyone.
Normally, if the Wei family had no special connections with other families, it would be fine. But after her revival, the previously balanced situation seemed to have changed entirely.
As the mother of five children, according to Federal law, she had the obligation to care for and raise all five children. To care for them, she had to move between several families.
For her, it might have just been going to their five families to care for the children.
But in the eyes of all the Federal factions, she was like a suddenly appearing link, connecting the Mu family, the Zhongli family, and the Wei family together. The emergence of this connection would make other Federal factions nervous and fearful of them.
That's why Mu Sijie and Zhongli Feiyu had been so anxious before, repeatedly reminding her not to care for the children together. Her appearance was already unavoidable. If she were to care for the children together as well, given the anxieties of other factions, no one knew what they might do.
No, something had already happened.
The Zhongli family's current incident was likely because someone was afraid. Because of her special talent, her ability to create Super 3S mechs, and her frequent movements between the Mu and Zhongli families, it made other factions believe that she, the Mu family, and the Zhongli family had taken sides, that they had become one family. Therefore, others became fearful that they would become too powerful if they joined forces, and thus finally made their move, targeting the Zhongli family first.
"Okay," Lu Wanqing agreed, lost in thought.
Mu Sijie couldn't help but raise his hand and affectionately ruffle Lu Wanqing's hair. He comforted her, "Don't worry, this is not your fault."
"If I join the Federal Weapons Administration and agree to make a Super 3S mech for each legion, and at the same time release the news that the small Super 3S mechs are about to be on the market, can it temporarily stabilize the current situation?" Lu Wanqing asked.
Mu Sijie nodded, "Yes."
"Then I agree," Lu Wanqing said again.
"I'm sorry," Mu Sijie hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but say. This was originally a dispute between several major families, and it had involved her. He felt very apologetic.
Lu Wanqing shook her head slightly, "It's okay, this is not your fault."
In fact, she should have anticipated this situation in the Federation a long time ago. It was her fault for not thinking deeply about it before. If she had thought about these issues earlier, and publicly revealed her abilities in advance, letting everyone know that she would not let her abilities favor any single faction, that she could create Super 3S mechs, and like the Mu family, use her abilities fairly for the entire Federation, then there wouldn't be such a situation now.
