Early in the morning, Antoin came to me and asked me how he was doing today, and he also sent a message to me, a little slob, by the way.Uncle Presley was at a Chamber of Commerce meeting with Dad, and they wanted me to come over.

As soon as I arrived in front of the Chamber of Commerce, I saw Higgins standing outside, but I am not in the mood to grab an order with him today.Uncle Presley's voice was heard from afar, "Haha, remember the scene where you blew up an engine in front of Russo?"

"Ah, don't mention it again, Clara also saw it at the time."

Seeing me enter the door, Uncle Presley greeted me, "Xiao Jiu, I'm glad you're here, we're just reminiscing about our youth. Your dad gave you a suggestion, I'm really looking forward to it."

"What?" I looked at the old man next to me, feeling that something was not right.

Sure enough, he turned his head and said to me sternly, "Let's have a contest of workshop masters!"

What?I really want to give him a blank stare, I have to compete with Higgins every day, can I stop playing this boring game.

"This is a competition between workshop owners to see who is better."

"I know what it means, but why compare?"

"Why not? I heard from Presley that you are now the best workshop owner in Portia. I want to see how good you are."

Then I really can't refuse it. "I haven't seen you for so long, why did you come back for this?"

"I, listen, I know you're probably sad that I'm not around . . . but being a workshop owner is the only thing your dad can do. I really want to mend our relationship... .”

"Okay, I accept." I don't really want to hear him talk about other things, and I really don't want to recall the past, if he thinks who is the better workshop owner compared with me If we can repair our previous relationship, then I won't say anything more.

"Very well, I will be the referee for this competition. Let's take a look, since you are all illegal workshop owners, let's go find something exciting." Uncle Zeng Leslie suggested.

Since the Sky Shark incident, the league has been ordering as many planes as possible.But everyone knows that airplanes are one of the most sought-after commodities in the world, and they require very limited antique parts.

So Uncle Presley decided that the topic of this competition was to make an airplane. He also gave me two design drawings, but I had to prepare the materials for making the airplane by myself.

"Do you want to use my workshop?" Although I was extremely reluctant, I asked politely.

"I thought, I can borrow Higgins's use, and hope he doesn't introduce it, haha."

I can't control whether Higgins minds or not, but if it's Higgins' small workshop, I still have a high chance of winning.The main task now is to talk to Arlo about where to find the jet engine, and then talk to Petra about how to make the super drop frame.

I went to Petra first, and she gave me a sympathetic look when she knew I was going to build an airplane.

It's a tough goal, and most of the aircraft in the alliance are built on the Vega 5 because everyone else lacks parts, even if they know how to build them.But she is still very happy that I have the assembly drawing of the aircraft, after all, the scientific research center does not have this thing.

"I actually need a way to make the super drop frame." I told her.

She promised to help me and would let me know if there was any news.

When I went out, I found out that Arlo was going to the desert again, so I had to take the Didi bus to find him.

"Are you looking for a jet engine? Is this for racing your dad? He told us some stories about his adventures in the east." Arlo guessed my purpose in a second, and he didn't seem to be out of his mind No help.But he didn't find any jet engines near Portia, and he speculated that maybe Wendy knew the layout of the area better than we did.

On the way back, I met a girl named Shi Liuliu, who asked me how to get to the city hall.

She was a tourist from Shashi Town, and the mayor dragged her to bring a gift to Geller. I thought it was not very far from here, so I took her back to the city directly.

She was really curious about Portia and kept asking questions along the way, but I think she knows most things better than I do.Finally I took her to City Hall and told her, "This is it."

She thanked me for sending her here, and gave me a small stone from Sandstone, and I just wanted to go find Wendy.

Wendy thought I wanted the jet engine to start a war, and kept telling me war was bad, she didn't like war.

"I just want to build an airplane for the competition," I told her. "Are there any jet engines in the ruins near Portia?"

Although Wendy often said that artificial intelligence doesn't know everything, but fortunately she still knows this thing.She told me there were some facilities here to make jet engines and asked me if I had ever seen a manufacturing plant, one of the factories where she made them.

Finally, after listening to her talking for a while, she finally gave me a crafting book stored in her data.

In this production book, I have saved most of the materials, but there are still some more troublesome materials that need to be collected outside.I went to the Lying Ingle Mine, and came back when the militia was closed to release the commission. The last one that was more troublesome was the crystal and carbon fiber cloth. I had to find time to go to other ruins.

When I got home, I slept for less than 5 hours and was woken up by voices from downstairs.

"Honey, I saw your father at the door, so I let him in." Geist saw me going downstairs and explained the situation to me.

"I want to get to know your family." The bad old man standing downstairs didn't feel that coming in like this disturbed us at all. "This place looks really nice, you've done a great job of remodeling it. How are you doing?"

"Since when?" I slowly walked downstairs, the quality of my sleep has been terrible recently.

"From... well, this is more complicated than I thought."

"Eleven years ago, you left me alone in the care of Aunt Kendra, and then suddenly wrote to me about this workshop. I always hoped that you would come back, and it makes me very sad."

"I, I'm sorry. After your mother died, I don't know how my life will continue. Being a workshop owner is what I do best, and I want to find my life."

It's a pity that the man in front of him, even when his mother was alive, didn't become a good husband.

"Then did you do it?"

"I think... yes... I saw a lot of things when I was exploring the eastern continent, things that people can't imagine. After I went there, I realized that if humans can explore the entire desolate land, There must be a quick harvest.”

"So you're leaving again after the game?"

"Yes, I want to see how you are doing before I do this. My last trip is very dangerous, and it will probably be the last time in my life."

"So competing with me as a workshop master is a strange way for you to show your father's love?" I don't really understand this person, how important it is to take risks, and to be able to be more important than your own relatives and children.

"I thought you could understand, sorry, I hope you can forgive me, but it's up to you. I've wasted a lot of your time, see you another day my boy. Nice to meet you too, Geist."

"Me too, Dad." Geist replied like a dog's leg.

I gave him a blank look, and then looked at the figure of my father leaving.

"I think your father is not bad, I think he still cares about you very much, otherwise he wouldn't come back, right?" Geist commented like this.

"You should go to work."
