Chapter 168 Where the Rewards Go
“But,” Li and Yu smiled helplessly, “Wei Ying and the others also say that you are their elder sister, so it’s up to you to decide!”
"Zhao Yumin, Su Youjin, and Lin Jinran are fine; they're all in China, and the rewards and honors given to them by the leaders based on their contributions can be directly distributed to them. But Wei Ying and Lan Zhan are both in the Demonic Cultivation World. How can the rewards be distributed across a world?! Besides, Wei Ying and the others have made such great contributions!"
"..." Wei Chaoyan was dumbfounded when she heard this. After all, if a country makes a contribution and benefits, it should reward it, whether it is a tangible or spiritual reward. That makes sense! But what if the two sides are not in the same world?
Although there is a live streaming system that allows cross-world communication, it does not support the transfer of items between the two worlds, and the functions of cash top-up and real-world rewards have long been shut down, so there is no chance of getting rewards in terms of money!
As for other top-secret scientific and technological information, advanced knowledge, etc., the country had already issued an order after determining the purpose of the learning space, instructing those who enter the space to reproduce as much of the country's stored knowledge as possible in the various libraries within the space!
To date, the space contains nearly 30,000 books, all of which are high-quality, contain countless profound truths, and are virtually error-free! Moreover, they are all fully accessible to everyone in the space. Without the support of these resources, Wei Ying and his group of geniuses would not have been able to produce such a continuous stream of novel creations and inventions in just a few years, no matter how exceptionally talented and intelligent they are!
Therefore, there are no rewards to offer in this regard. As for the idea of big names, professors, and academicians personally imparting their experience and knowledge, that won't work either. After all, they enter the space as instructors, and imparting knowledge is their duty, not a reward!
As for the remaining honorary titles and work-related awards, please! We're all in different worlds, who are we going to give them to?
Wei Chaoyan scratched the back of her head in frustration, and said in a fit of despair, "Ugh! Forget it! Uncle Li, Aunt Yu, just have the leaders put Aying and the others' rewards on the books for now, and we'll figure out a solution later!"
"Perhaps one day A-Ying's cultivation level will be high enough to break through the world barrier and come to China, or he may come up with some magical artifact similar to a portal or a cross-world array to break the shackles and allow travel between the two worlds, or the system may upgrade and unlock permissions later to solve the problem!"
Wei Chaoyan ran her fingers through her hair, making a tentative assumption.
“…!!” Li and Yu exchanged a glance. Although they found it absurd and ridiculous, they had no other choice but to put it aside as she suggested.
Li Yingxiang thought for a moment, his expression changed, and he licked his lips tentatively, "Ayan, is it possible that Lan Zhan's side would allow the country to provide him with a Chinese ID card and household registration, just like Wei Ying did?"
"?" Wei Chaoyan tilted her head, puzzled. "Why?"
Li Yingxiang nervously rubbed his palms together. "It's not just because of his talent; his contributions will only grow greater in the future! The things he researches are extremely useful, and if the country wants to use them, it will definitely need to reward him. And when it's promoted nationwide, his information will need to be made public. If we don't include him in the national citizen information system, these things will be difficult to handle later!"
Wei Chaoyan blinked, thought about it carefully, and felt that it made sense. So she thought to herself, "I'll ask him after he finishes his exam!"
Yu Ying hesitated several times before speaking, but seeing that Li Yingxiang and Wei Chaoyan had finally finished their conversation, she immediately reminded Wei Chaoyan, "Ayan, regarding Wei Ying's newly created series of products, we need to promote them on our side. Have you thought about how to solve this on your side?"
"Also, Lan Zhan is currently practicing Wei Ying's newly created cultivation technique. Has he said he would hand it over to the Lan Clan? What about those talismans, formations, and magical artifacts? If he does hand them over, what will the Lan Clan offer in return? If he doesn't, how will he face his family and relatives?"
"The Lan Clan is, after all, a powerful clan, and they prioritize the interests of their family! The benefits brought by Lan Zhan, or rather, those of you behind him, and even the system, are relatively small. His parents, out of their love for their son, will spare no effort to hide anything unusual to protect their young child's safety! But! When the benefits are so great that they, and the Lan Clan, can further become the most renowned clan for all time, what do you think they, especially the clan leader Qingheng-jun and Lan Qiren who prioritizes the Lan Clan, will choose?"
"..." Faced with Yu Ying's detailed and open discussion, Wei Chaoyan was speechless. After hesitating for a long time, she chose to shift the blame, saying dryly, "Lan Zhan is already an adult. He will handle it himself! Trust him. His political strategies in the space weren't learned for nothing! Even if things don't go well, there's still the political genius Qi Ye backing him up!"
"As for how to properly promote Aying and the others' invention, let the three of them take care of it themselves! Although I am their older sister, I am not smart enough and my vision is not broad enough. I don't know anything about planning or strategy. I just need to do my own thing and not cause them any trouble!"
"After all, they've really grown up! They're no longer the naive children who knew nothing!"
As she spoke, Wei Chaoyan seemed rather lost and sighed, saying to herself that she knew her own limitations. Since she wasn't cut out for it, she shouldn't take on a job she wasn't qualified for!
Following Wei Chaoyan's lead, Li and Yu recalled the three little ones' amazing talents and performances, and then they remembered Wei Chaoyan's usual half-hearted performance in political strategy classes. Oh well, the child has already done her best, so let's not make things too difficult for her!
As for how to resolve this? Aren't the parties involved still there? Solve your own problems – this is an age-old and timeless truth!
Li and Yu, who had a sudden realization that once they understood something, understood everything, laughed and said, "Ayan, we have nothing else to ask you! Since everything is settled, we'll leave now and won't disturb your rest any longer!" They bid farewell to Wei Chaoyan in unison.
Wei Chaoyan lazily got up and saw them out of the room. After waving goodbye, she closed the door behind her and plopped down on the soft sofa. She straightened up, grabbed a blanket from the sofa next to her, wrapped it haphazardly around herself, and after a couple of tosses and turns, drifted off to sleep.
