"Boss, the master group has no business, the mercenaries have nothing to do, they have been eating their old books, it can't go on like this!"

The big cat immediately reported to Chen Xing the problem of the master group. There are more than 200 people in the master group, but there is no food and salary for the garrison in the edge town, and it all depends on Chen Xing's personal property.

Mercenaries fight for money, and it is impossible to eat white food for a long time, and Orchid Town does not need so many soldiers. If he wants to make ends meet, Chen Xing has only two ways to go, either expand the establishment of the Orchid Town garrison and add his own people.

But Chen Xing took the canonization document of Ice Blue City, which was not as good as Pang Youcai's duchy canonization document, and Lacey had a holiday with him, so it was impossible to agree. Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if there are no problems, the Orchid Town Security Team and the city defenders add up to more than 200 establishments, and it is impossible to double the military strength.

The second way is to let the master group go out to find business to do and be self-sufficient.

"What do you think?" Chen Xing picked up a very red wine glass and touched it with the big cat.

Although he has a lot of money, he can't bear more than 200 mouths to eat and drink every day. The expenses of the master group for a month, the salary and materials consumed more than 6,000 gold coins, more than 80,000 gold coins a year, if you don't have enough business, you really can't afford to support it. And the soldiers have been idle for a long time and will soon be scrapped.

"Go to Sanchahe City to develop, and come back if you need to." The big cat suggested.

"Who's leading the way?" Chen Xing asked again. As a leader, even if you have your own ideas, you should listen to the suggestions of your subordinates first and give full play to their subjective initiative. If you say it directly, your subordinates will most likely be afraid to speak their minds because of respect for the leader.

"Me!" The big cat Mao recommended himself, thought about it, and said, "It's best to let Cassie and Lao Ji go with me, Cassie is good, and Lao Ji has many ideas." ”

"Hmm......" Chen Xing nodded in thought. He knows the roots of the big cat, although his personal strength is not good, but he still has some leadership ability, otherwise he would not be able to be the vice captain in the previous life. In the past half a year, the big cat is still very competent for the position of deputy head of the regiment, and it should not be a big problem for him to lead the team.

Cassie has a detached personality and poor management ability, and several people have reported that there are problems with his management level. As for Lao Ji, he is now the town's financial officer, but in fact, there are not many things in the town, and Lao K can concurrently serve as him. Lao Ji is well-informed, and staying in the town is a bit of a big talent, so it is better to assist the big cat.

Thinking of this, Chen Xing finalized it, and the big cat led the master group to Sancha River City for development, and the water station was handed over to the management of the three affairs officials of Kalid.

"Elder Hei and Elder Qin ask to see your lord."

As soon as a group of people were sent away, the black old monster and Qin Gui came to visit again.

"Mayor Town, we have received the special products sent by Xiao Yang, you have a heart." "The little girl is very grateful, and specially made a pastry for me to bring over, I hope the adults will not dislike the little girl's rough craftsmanship."

The black old monster and Qin Gui were very polite, after all, Chen Xing was no longer the "Chen Xiaoyou" of the year, but the head of a town, and his strength was already above them.

"Second Elder, are you still comfortable living?" Chen Xing asked with concern. The Black Old Monster and Qin Gui are now his disciples, and they are the town-level powerhouses under him except for the Moon Canglian, and they will have to rely on their second elder for many things in the future. What's more, the black old monster can also be regarded as half of Chen Xing's master, providing him with a lot of experience in cultivation. In terms of reasonableness, Chen Xing has to respect them.

"It's a good stay, the adults are bothered, if there are no adults, we two old men have nowhere to go." "Yes, thank you, sir, for giving our brothers a place to stay."

"The second elder is polite, they are all from their own family, and they will come and sit down more in the future, by the way, I brought some good wine from Ice Blue City, and I will let Xiao Yang send it to you when I go back."

After talking about the old for a while, the second elder was afraid of disturbing Chen Xing's rest, so he got up to say goodbye. Chen Xing just came back from outside, and when he saw this and that, he was really tired, so he didn't do much to keep it, and sent it to the door in person.

Then seeing that Yuecanglia put hot water, Chen Xing took a bath, changed into pajamas, and returned to the master bedroom.

The master bedroom is located on the east side of the second floor, with square walls of more than 100 square meters, arched floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides, and thick and ornate mercerized curtains. In the middle is an oversized bed, made of two large oak beds, and it is not a problem to sleep ten people side by side. There are also wardrobes, desks, sofas, wine coolers and more.

Chen Xing did not rush to bed, but walked to the wall on the west side of the room, pressed the secret door hidden behind the oil painting, and the wall separated left and right, revealing a downward spiral staircase.

The spiral staircase leads to the basement dark room, which is generally thought to be the owner's treasure room or wine cellar, but it does not actually work.

Chen Xing descended to the dark room, which contained a safe and a large oak barrel containing red wine. He walked to the corner, knocked on the wall, and coughed dryly.

It didn't take long for the sound of digging in the wall to be heard, and then there was a bang, and large rocks fell, and an underground tunnel appeared, and several termite worker ants crawled out.

As if ordered to do so, they immediately cleaned the ground of dirt and rocks, and then a few chubby spraying ants moved out and spewed white slime to fix the walls.

Chen Xing got into an ant cart and entered the corridor. Today, the roadway is hard and smooth, like a bomb shelter made of reinforced concrete.

The corridor is spiral-shaped, constantly spiraling downward. A few minutes later, Chen Xing went down to the hatchery deep underground and met the huge queen of the hundred nests.

Compared with more than three months ago, Suna's size is one size larger, before it was a yacht, and now it is almost in time to catch up with the destroyer. By studying the relics of the undercurrent and the remains of civilization in the fragments of the world, scholars guessed that the ultimate form of the star-eater ant queen could reach the star level, with a body like an asteroid and a diameter of thousands of kilometers.

But that's the result of how many years have passed, how many planets and lives have been devoured.

"Woo woo, brother, you're finally back, Suna thought she wouldn't see you anymore......"

Seeing Chen Xing, Suna cried with joy, and immediately turned into a human form and pounced on her, hugging Chen Xing and crying non-stop, as if she hadn't seen her for many years and reunited after the catastrophe. In her time, her brother was away for a day like a century.

Chen Xing smiled without saying a word, gently touching Suna's hair, feeling so comfortable to be missed and cared for.

"Brother, Suna misses you so much, I think about it every day, and I look forward to my brother's return every day~"

"Well, it's so good, it's not good to you in vain." Chen Xing first encouraged and recognized, then straightened his face and asked seriously, "When my brother was away, did you read and learn to write well?" ”

"Yes, Suna reads books and learns to write every day." Suna said obediently.

"Then I'm going to test you well, and I'll be punished if I can't answer." Chen Xing said.

"Well, if Suna doesn't work hard, let her brother punish her, and your brother will punish whatever he wants, Suna is not afraid." Suna said seriously. As he spoke, he subconsciously looked down at his bulging belly, as if he was ready to be punished.

Chen Xing casually picked up the book on the ground, and it read: Mathematics in the first grade of primary school.

"What is seventeen plus eight?" He picked a random question.

"Twenty-six!" Suna replied excitedly.

"Hmm!" Chen Xing was taken aback, he would, so he asked again, "Fifty-nine times three." ”

"Fifty-nine times three, three nine twenty-seven, five three hundred and fifteen, twenty-seven plus fifteen, no, no, three nine twenty-seven, three hundred and fifty-one, fifteen plus twenty-seven, ......"

Suna counted her fingers, but she counted them, and her fingers were completely insufficient, and then she used her toes as well, but they were still not enough.

"If you can't count it, you'll be punished." Chen Xing threatened.

"Ah, brother, wait, let me count again, twenty-seven, plus, fifteen, two plus one, seven plus five...... Thirty plus twelve, forty-two! Suna's eyes lit up, "Brother, I figured it out, it's forty-two!" ”

"Fifty-nine times three equals forty-two?" The corners of Chen Xing's mouth were hooked, revealing an evil smile.

"Ah, no, no, it's not right, why is it smaller than before......" Suna began to count her fingers again, but after counting for most of the day, she still couldn't count.

"Woo woo, Suna can't figure it out, Suna is so stupid!" Suna finally gave up.

"Fifty-nine is fifty and nine, three times nine equals twenty-seven, three times fifty equals one hundred and fifty, and it adds up to one hundred and seventy-seven." Chen Xing wrote it on the ground.

"Wow, my brother is so powerful, it's out at once."

"I'll test you again, and if you can't do it, you'll be punished." "Uh-huh~"
