"You have to know," Lin Yi said, "all the recipes I told Xiao D are owned by me. Now the recipes Xiao D has are enough to open a restaurant anywhere and make huge profits."
"That's right." The general did not deny it.
In fact, at this time, some dishes imitating braised pork have already been launched in the capital star, and the sales are very good. And if they put the types of food they eat in the cafeteria every day outside, not only can they open a good restaurant, but it can be predicted that it will definitely become a very popular restaurant.
"Do you mean you want to take back the access to these recipes?" the general asked Lin Yi cautiously, with a worried look between his brows.
Because according to the law, Lin Yi does have the authority to revoke the recipes authorized to Xiao D at any time, and then let the entire military canteen return to the pre-liberation era.
Who can stand this
Lin Yi smiled and shook his head and said, "Of course not. In fact, even after I leave the deserted planet, I can still provide you with new recipes that are at least several times better."
The general opened his eyes wide as if he couldn't believe it, and then asked in surprise: "Are you telling the truth?"
"Really, but the prerequisite is that Xiao D comes back with me to the Capital Star," Lin Yi said, "All the recipes can be kept in Xiao D's brain. I know that he can completely remotely control the kitchen here from the Capital Star."
This proposal was something the general had never thought of, but it was indeed a feasible proposal. The key point was that Lin Yi's suggestion that the quantity of recipes would increase several times in the future was too tempting. After weighing the two, the general immediately wavered.
"This, but I'm afraid I can't make a decision directly on this matter. Can you wait for me to report it and give you a reply?"
Lin Yi nodded: "Of course."
At this point, Lin Yi was already 90% sure.
He got up, left the military office building, and drove directly to the medical center.
Archie was still lying here receiving treatment. After Lin Yi entered through the access control, he saw a crew member at the door of Archie's ward.
The other party was sitting there playing games boredly. When he heard the voice, he looked up at Lin Yi, immediately put down his phone, stood up, and greeted Lin Yi with a smile.
Lin Yi peeked inside through the glass on the ward door. There was a soldier standing in front of Archie's bed, asking him something. Archie looked a little nervous.
"The military has just arrived and they said they are going to conduct an investigation," the staff member said to Lin Yi, "You should wait at the door for a while. These people in the military are not easy to get along with. They scared me when they came in."
Lin Yi nodded and sat down beside her. After waiting for about five minutes, the door of the ward was opened from the inside.
The soldier walked out of the door and was about to leave, but when he turned around, he saw Lin Yi. He was surprised at first, then turned around and saluted Lin Yi, then said, "I will give you a detailed report after the matter is investigated."
He said that before leaving.
The crew members were stunned, and only after the soldier left did they dare to ask Lin Yi: "What's going on? Why is he so polite to you?"
Lin Yi said: "Maybe it's because I applied for an investigation. Can I go in and see Archie now?"
"sure."
The ward door opened and closed.
Archie was lying nervously on the hospital bed in the room. He turned around when he heard the noise behind him. When he saw it was Lin Yi, a look of nervousness appeared on his face.
Although the soldier who came into the room earlier didn't get any information out of the question, it was obvious that he wasn't going to let the matter go, which made Archie very worried.
But he thought about it carefully again last night and felt that he still had to bite the bullet.
Lin Yi could not have a deep relationship with the military. He must have had some connection with the military after coming to the deserted planet this time with one or two recipes. Otherwise, Lin Yi would not have been suppressed like that for a period of time. This kind of tenuous connection with the military was bound to be severed after they left the deserted planet. This investigation might just be a formality for the military to deal with Lin Yi's departure.
But looking at Song Shu, the Song family behind her is one of the major families in the empire. Even if the investigation really reaches her, she might be able to get away with it by using some connections.
If he really used this matter to threaten Song Shu, he might end up in trouble. It would be better to be firm. Maybe Song Shu would remember his kindness and reward him afterwards.
Archie made up his mind, and his eyes looked much more determined when he looked at Lin Yi.
"What are you doing here?"
"Do you know how intentional homicide is defined in imperial law?" Lin Yi said in a relaxed tone. He sat down on the sofa next to the bed, crossed his legs, and leaned back in the chair leisurely.
"What are you talking about? I don't understand at all." Archie said firmly, "Please leave now. I want to rest."
Lin Yi didn't care about him and said to himself: "Generally speaking, the crime of attempted murder will be sentenced lightly. I checked some previous judgments in the capital star and found that there are many cases where the person was directly released as long as a certain amount of compensation was paid or an understanding was reached with the victim."
Archie didn't quite understand what Lin Yi meant, but what he said made Archie feel a lot more relaxed.
He has Song Shu behind him. Even if he doesn't have the money to pay the compensation, Song Shu will always help him, and he won't have to bear any responsibility at that time.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yi changed the subject and said, "But the problem is that cases that occurred on the desolate planet can only be tried by the First Legion. And referring to the cases that can be checked by the military, there is no correlation between compensation and sentencing. For crimes like intentional homicide, it is easy to be sentenced to death, and the lightest sentence is more than 50 years in prison. What kind of sentence do you think you will get?"
"I will return to the capital planet according to the original plan, then recover from my injuries and get back to work."
Archie's heart was pounding and his hands were clenched into fists, but he still managed to keep a straight face while speaking.
Lin Yi nodded slowly: "This result is not impossible. After all, you are just being instigated. It all depends on whether you are willing to tell the whole story or take the responsibility."
Archie stared, surprised that Lin Yi seemed to know everything.
Lin Yi stood up, half turned sideways and prepared to leave. Before leaving, he took a half step back. "What do you think of the relationship between the Song family and the Williams family? In other words, do you think that if the Williams family finds something on the Song family, they will give the Song family this face?"
Without waiting for Archie to reply, he turned around and walked out, leaving Archie, who was already sweating from nervousness, standing there.
Archie was flustered by what Lin Yi said. He had not thought of what Lin Yi said before. Would the Williams family give the Song family this face? Maybe, maybe not. Archie didn't dare to bet.
Not to mention that the Williams family actually doesn't need to give face to anyone. Qin Nuo's return to the capital star is obviously heading for the core of power of the empire. At this time, the Williams family should be happy to see the Song family lose face.
Because of Lin Yi’s words, Archie’s two thoughts became mixed together and he couldn’t figure it out for a while.
But for Lin Yi, he would just leave the matter alone. At least he would not pay any special attention to it until the results of the military investigation came out.
The military cafeteria responded to Lin Yi at noon the next day, inviting him to the military office building to discuss the matter in person.
Lin Yi knew that this matter was most likely to be successful.
"It's like this. After discussion, we have obtained approval from above, but there is another requirement." The general looked at Lin Yi, carefully sizing up his face and said, "We can allow Xiao D to return to the capital planet with you, but it will still belong to the military until it is officially retired in fifty years.
During this period, it needs to go to the military cafeteria branch located in the capital planet to work every day, responsible for the three meals a day there, and remotely share a storage system with our D-Type No. 2 who is its replacement. Of course, the permission to share is controlled by D-Type No. 1, and D-Type No. 2 has no right to use it on its own. "
The general finished his speech and coughed, "Of course, the premise of this is that you can continue to provide recipes."
The general seemed to feel that his demands were a bit too much, and not only did he not suffer any loss, but he also took great advantage of Lin Yi. He felt quite embarrassed.
Lin Yi didn't think it was too much. After all, it was unrealistic for him to take away someone else's advanced intelligent computer that cost millions of dollars without giving anything in return.
He nodded, but in return he made two more requests to the general: "If you can promise me two small favors, I will fully agree to your terms."
"Please go ahead."
"The first is that I hope to continue to use the military's training ground after returning to the capital planet, so if the military can give me the permission to continue using it, I would be very grateful. The second is that I wonder if the military can help me reserve a flying machine?"
The two requirements were indeed simple and easy for the military. The first one only required the military to input a string of military-specific codes into Lin Yi's personal terminal, and he could directly enjoy some of the military's benefits.
The second point is Lin Yi's own car purchase plan. Although there are many aircraft that individuals can buy, they are often out of stock. This is especially true for some aircraft with better performance.
If you ask the military to help you make the reservation, there won’t be any such problem.
This matter was considered to be settled. The general then took out a formal document from his drawer. The content of the document was brief, only giving the custody of Xiao D to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi quickly signed his name on the document, officially taking Xiao D under his name.
