You can only choose within the scope you have delineated, and don't accept other candidates. It's just the first request made by Shi Xiaolei.

"Didn't you say there are three requirements? What are the other two?" Nick Fury continued to ask, remembering what Coulson said before.

"The second rule is very simple." Coulson smiled: "Locke's original words are 'you need to buy a plane ticket when you take a plane, and you need to buy a boat ticket when you take a boat. Therefore, if you want to take a spacecraft to go to aliens for sightseeing, of course, you have to buy it according to the number of people. A ticket will do'."

"Specially listed as a separate request..." Nick Fury also smiled: "What is his asking price, shouldn't it be cheap?"

"It's really not cheap. He asked for 10 million, er, 10 million per person." Coulson shook his head helplessly: "According to what he said, the original plan was to ask for 20 million per person, and the five quotas made up It's enough for 100 million. It's because I am very familiar with him and can be regarded as a friend, so I made a discount and reduced it to 10 million per person. "

"...It's really a bit expensive." Nick Fury nodded: "But considering the significance of this trip, it's still affordable. Okay, I'll have someone call the money in a while, you remember to give it to him Make a phone call."

"I will."

"OK, I've said two things, what about the last one?"

"The last one may be a little troublesome." Coulson's face showed a wry smile: "He asked us to provide a set of living plant samples."

"Plant samples?"

"Yes." Coulson nodded: "I asked, but he didn't say why, but said that the number of samples should not be less than 2,000. Moreover, each category must be included, and the greater the difference between the samples. Bigger is better."

Not a scientist or a collector, Shi Xiaolei's request for plant samples is obviously not for research or collection.

Just like the last time he earned credit points, the reason he asked for these plant samples was just to exchange them for money.

The poor family is rich, and there are not many credit points left on hand. It is only one aspect that I plan to exchange more credit points to cover the expenses during the journey. On the other hand, I also want to save more credit points to see if I can buy some valuable things to bring back.

Like a spaceship.

Bayonetta had proposed to get a bigger ship for the family. And the last time I met Stark, he also said that he wanted to get himself a spaceship. Although he is usually careless and forgetful, Shi Xiaolei still remembers these things that happened recently.

Want to buy something, can not do without credit points. Based on the previous experience, Shi Xiaolei first thought of a way to make money, which was to sell all kinds of living samples that were only found on earth.

As for why only plant samples were requested, there was no mention of animals...

That’s because Shi Xiaolei happened to see a piece of news the day before he met Coulson—somewhere in Africa, another large-scale epidemic broke out. As of that day, more than 1,000 patients had lost their lives because of the virus. life.

Although he knew that was not the case, after seeing this news, Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but think of the word 'biochemical weapon'.

If someone uses the animal samples they sold as experimental materials, and develops a biochemical weapon specifically aimed at Earthlings... Thinking of this possibility, Shi Xiaolei's scalp tingles, and goosebumps all over his body.

It is for this reason that animal samples are abandoned and only plant samples are selected.

"...not less than 2,000 species."

"I suggest contacting the botanical garden directly, or a scientific research institution specializing in plants." Looking at Nick Fury, who frowned unconsciously, Coulson smiled bitterly with sympathy: "Although the exact day of departure has not yet been determined. , but it is not difficult to see from Locke's words of 'taking advantage of the holiday' that he should choose to leave after the start of the winter vacation. In this way, there is not much time left for us. Director, I think we'd better go early. Take a little action."

"you are right."

Nodding, Nick Fury got up and came to the desk, picked up the landline handset on the desk, and dialed the intercom.

Inside S.H.I.E.L.D., there are scientific researchers from all walks of life, including experts who specialize in plant research.

"Three experts were found for you, and they will join you at the NCGRP (National Center for Genetic Resources Conservation, also known as the National Genetic Resources Conservation Laboratory NLGRP)."

"Okay, I'll go now."

"The contact information of the three of them will be sent to your mobile phone in a while." Nodding, Nick Fury waved his hand: "Go and get busy, feel free to contact me if you need anything."

"Yes."

................................

In order to fulfill the agreement with Shi Xiaolei and prepare the plant samples he needs before departure, Coulson had to incarnate as a buyer and travel around the world.

In just one week, he visited more than a dozen world-class plant research institutions. Its action route not only covers the continental United States, but also distributes to northern Europe in the frigid zone and southern Asia in the tropics, including the Amazon rainforest known as the lungs of the earth, the South American plateau with an altitude of more than 1,000 meters, and the Sahara desert with drought-tolerant plants. The edges have left his footprints.

Even if there were Kun-style fighter jets to travel, and the agents stationed in various places helped, this big circle still made Coulson exhausted.

In contrast, Shi Xiaolei, who stayed at home and prepared for the trip, was much more relaxed.

Ark has sufficient guarantee in terms of ingredients in ~lightnovelpub.net~. It can be said that apart from preparing some seasonings as reserves, there is nothing special to prepare.

The most important 'food' item is almost nothing to worry about.

And the clothing, housing, and transportation that are second only to food...

"Loke, are these enough?" Standing tall on the back of a Diplodocus, Beyonita greeted Shi Xiaolei who was busy on the construction site from a distance.

Hearing the movement, Shi Xiaolei, who was on the roof, turned his head and saw a large pile of boards placed on the ground by Beyonita.

"It should be almost enough here." After estimating how much it would take to cover the entire roof, Shi Xiaolei raised his hand and gave a thumbs up to Bayonetta, who was a few dozen meters away: "Let's send it to the other side of the river, There's still a lot of material missing. By the way, tell Banya and the others to produce more logs that are strong enough and long enough to be used for pillars and beams."

"OK, I see."

After agreeing, Beiyunita urged Diplodocus under her feet to turn around and walk towards the 'forest farm'.

The sound of rumbling footsteps was not far away, and there was another pterosaur chirping in the sky.

Looking up, Shi Xiaolei saw at a glance that three-headed pterosaurs were flying from the north. Without exception, they all had large net pockets hanging on their claws.

"This way, this way~!" There was a clear greeting from the ground, which was the voice of the expulsion girls who were the cameos of the ground crew, directing the landing of the pterosaurs.
