Chapter 333: She keeps getting richer

The next day, the official page of the Grey star which was normally dull announced the news about the honey and snails, kicking up a storm before the sun could even rise.

Governor Lancaster had started working on the suggestions which Scarlet made immediately. He had people collecting snails, taking their pictures and sharing them on star net. Nobody had cooked them or started selling them as they waited for Scarlet’s opinion.

It would not surprise her of course of someone did sell them out of greed and impatience, after all, the word edible snails was already trending on star net.

In addition to snails, the bees were trending too, and everyone could finally see for themselves the creatures that produced the honey she spoke so much of and often used in baking.

The Blue star communications page announced the establishment of a trade agreement between the two star planets with a picture of Scarlet, Esong and governor Lancaster.

A few city hall officials on the Blue star were admiring the picture as they sipped tea or coffee from Mary’s diner as seen on the logo of the cups they held.

"The governor is going to be even richer." One of them said.

"Aaah, somehow it seems like it’s easy for her to make money." another said.

Beord passed by, with minister Maurey and he wondered what they would think if they knew that she owned twenty percent of Mary’s diner. The eighty was owned by his mother and Mary, the old lady whose image they used received a handsome fee as the face and spokesperson of the homey diner.

In a few years, his sister would become as rich as the emperor if she kept up this incredible level of hard work.

He smiled amusedly all the way to the minister’s office where he took a seat as the minister ruffled around in one of his cabinets for some papers.

When he found them, he presented them before Beord.

"This is the first draft of a gaming city which the governor suggested." Minister Maurey used a hologram as well to show Beord the futuristic city which was designed to accommodate gamers, competitions and entertainment.

Beord looked at the images with an excited glimmer in his eyes as he imagined what the actual city would look like.

If it was made a reality, he would be among the first people to move into it.

"It looks good, I am not sure what you need from me however." he said.

"This city will need a lot of virtual cables, solid communication pathways, power reserves and so much more. The governor said that you will be the one to take care of all the communication stuff. As you can see, people in this city will be able to live in a virtual city or live in districts built out of their favorite games. She has picked out what kind of games will be replicated so far but one of the game companies turned us down, Hurosha game. You went to school with the CEO, Mr. Kai Hurosha. I was wondering if you would be willing to approach him on behalf of our star. A city like this has the potential to bring in hundreds of star coins yearly. My aim is to ensure that we can rely on other things other than farming to grow the Blue star, I know that.."

"I understand you minister." he raised his hand and stopped minister Maurey’s fervent rant. "Kai is a proud and arrogant business man and for this reason I make no promises however I will try and if I am successful, I will share the good news."

At this same time, Scarlet was doing a live broadcast to share the news about snails. She was forced to address this issue immediately after her training because one family on the Grey star had already ended up in the hospital with stomach pain from eating raw snails. What she had been worried about had actually happened.

She had not changed out of her training outfit yet when she was pushed in front of the camera. Today director Rodney was here in person, rushing her to handle the matter before it went out of hand.

"Hey guys," she waved at the camera. "So, governor Lancaster has already shared the good news about snails which has caused some premature excitement among many of our citizens. I am here to clear up a few things."

She held her hand up and said, "While it’s true that snails are edible, they cannot be eaten raw. They have to cleaned and cooked before eating. Those who want to know about snails can visit the Blue star education page on sea life in two hours and click on the articles titled all about snails.

I have already received a shipment of snails from the grey star and I will prepare them after week. This is because the diet of snails does not always agree with the human digestive system so we must wait for the snails to pass what they have been eating. Alternatively, to speed this process up you can feed the snails human food to get toxins out of their bodies.

Another reminder is that snails must be cleaned thoroughly before cooking. You can use cold water with salt and vinegar for the cleaning process which I will be teaching you to do when the time is right. So, I implore you to be patient and wait as you read up on snails. Do not go around eating anything you find just because it’s a snail as some are not edible and others could even be poisonous.

With that explanation finished, she looked at director Rodney and he asked her to keep going. She on the other hand hand wondered what to say when she had just said all that there on the issue for now.

"I will answer a few of your questions to kill time." she said. She wanted to answer simple questions related to food and nothing to with herself.

[Which star planet will you be visiting next?]

"I have no plans to visit any other star planet at the moment because their is a lot of work to be done on my own star."

[The pictures of live snails shared are disgusting, can that slimy thing really be eaten?]

"Uhm, you will have to wait and find out."

[I found this on my planet is it edible?]

"That looks like a pine nut but I cannot be sure, please share your location and more pictures so that I can give you a genuine answer."

[Will you be cooking often with the mecha king?]

"I think I have answered this question ten times now, no the cook off with Esong was a one time activity and I don not know if we will be doing it again."

[Do you tour star planets in search of edible foods?]

"I had business on the Grey star and the snails were purely a coincidental discovery made after the governor showed me the shells.

For another fifteen minutes, all she did was sit still and answer questions paused by viewers.

"Uhm, let’s cook something." she said slowly, unsurely. She was tired of answering questions.

It was morning, and she could not cook anything heavy as she had yet to prepare breakfast for her son, husband and herself.

She noticed the bananas in a basket on the edge of the kitchen counter and something struck her, banana bread.
