Ke Junxia was drunk again.

Since becoming the city lord, Ke Junxia has been drunk once or twice from time to time.

Although he is usually temperate, once he has the perfect excuse to get drunk, he never lets it go.

This time it was because he welcomed his old friend, Naga Du Ziteng.

Since the last Naga cruise, they had left the metropolis and established their city-state in the Blackwater Swamp northwest of the metropolis.

Although the Naga people established a class society, they were still very generous to their "friends", and Ke Junxia was thus able to obtain a house in the western district of Blackwater City. According to the news brought by Du Ziteng, the house is now locked up by Coconut's mother, Ms. Yelia, "for Ke Junxia." In addition, there are several tenants - Ke Junxia's sister-in-law Kelina, and the construction contractor Mr. Feng's family of three, and it is said that Ms. Yelia organizes a card game every night, and everyone has a good time.

"I said you better take the time to look at your house, nominally yours, but in fact you have never seen it."

Du Ziteng persuaded Ke Junxia like this.

Ke Junxia also came simply, saying: "As long as the Blackwater City-State is still bent on maintaining slavery, I will not accept this gift from my friends." ”

Du Ziteng said with a smile: "Don't say one thing and do another, at least we will make our words and rights and obligations clear, and formulate laws, unlike the metropolis." Besides, you're committed to equality for all, but aren't you now using gangs to run the city? What's the difference between the inside and outside walls of your fortress and the upper and lower cities of the metropolis? ”

These words hit Ke Junxia's heart, so he got drunk.

In fact, Du Ziteng did not come to Fortress Town this time to reminisce about the past, but more for official business, the Blackwater City-State hoped to establish a low-level diplomatic relationship with the Fortress Town, but this was contrary to the laws of the Metropolis, so the Blackwater City-State began to seek to establish diplomatic relations with the Metropolis, but the location of the diplomatic office was located in the Fortress Town.

This is not easy to do, because although many people also use the Blackwater city-state as one of the cities to refuge and move, the Naga have a reputation for eating man-eating monsters, and the last parade caused many casualties, and the reputation of the Metropolitan Board of Directors has plummeted, and the establishment of diplomatic relations is really impossible.

But Du Ziteng didn't seem to care about this at all, he left an office, claiming that he was preparing a negotiation team, and then went back to Heishui City-State by himself, and Ke Junxia had to find housing for his group.

Since then, there have been a few more serpentine monsters in Zhuang Tianya's bar from time to time, but for alcoholics, as long as they drink boldly and often invite them for a long time, they are good friends, and even some drunkards brag that female Naga's breasts are hard and straight, and they are cold, and they feel excellent.

Ke Junxia felt that when he was solving one problem after another, he was gradually sliding into the darkness, and he was gradually becoming the kind of person he once hated. Only when he sat on the highest watchtower in the core area, with a cold bottle of Great Fortress beer in hand, and looked at the thriving and growing town, could his heart find a little comfort.

Lin Quan and the others saw that Ke Junxia's wine was drinking more and more, and occasionally persuaded him a few words, but Irina never persuaded him, but asked others not to persuade him, in her words: Xiao Ke is wrestling with his inner desires, because power is corrosive, but sometimes we have to rely on and rely on him.

On the other hand, the water lady's canal project has already begun, because food and drink are provided free of charge – in fact, it is still a patent license from the town of Fort. It has also attracted tens of thousands of metropolitan people to the construction, this time Yunmeng City-State is no longer dry, a note on the left, a statement on the right, solemnly protest today, and it will not be tolerated tomorrow, and the Metropolitan Board of Directors has now been reduced to a rubber stamp, so it is natural to push it if it can.

As for the other city-states, there are those who condemn, those who support, those who remain silent, and those who come forward to mediate diplomatically, but since the highest authority in the metropolis is losing power, this mediation is also useless.

The Yunmeng City-State finally couldn't bear it anymore and began to gather troops and recruit mercenaries.

Mrs. Shui did not show weakness here, while strengthening the guards, and recruiting part-time militiamen among the workers, as if she wanted to be tough. And the other families are also afraid that the world will not be chaotic, openly and secretly support Mrs. Shui, and also provide weapons.

Ke Junxia felt that there was something wrong here, but he couldn't figure it out, and he had a lot of his own things, so he couldn't be busy.

At this time, Shui Rouer and Hina have completed their basic security training, their fair skin is tanned, and their energy is more vigorous than before. Hina simply stopped looking for a job and returned to the core area to take care of Ke Junxia's life, after all, all the maids were dismissed by Ke Junxia, and he was busy with work, so his private life was a mess.

Shui Rou'er originally planned to join in the fun, but there were sixty or seventy people left over from the Shui family, and they needed to be managed, so she had to go to the other side. However, when she saw that the situation on her grandmother's side was tense, she also began to move, encouraging people all day long to "save yourself, save the metropolis" and then let everyone go to the construction site.

Since Lady Shui's prestige at this time has surpassed that of other families, as the only nobleman who is willing to help the metropolis survive the disaster, she is supported by everyone, so Shui Rouer has really become a "princess." The words were very effective, and in a moment hundreds of young men gave up their status as immigrants to Fort Town and went to the construction site of the Grand Canal.

Ke Junxia saw that Shui Rouer was making trouble for her again, so he talked to her a few times, but because her princess illness reached an unprecedented **, she couldn't listen to Ke Junxia's words at all. And now that she has a high reputation and the support of the family's widows, Ke Junxia can't throw her into the basement at every turn like before.

There was no way, Ke Junxia had to go to see Mrs. Shui again, and begged Mrs. Shui to take this plague god away, but Mrs. Shui smiled and said, "Everyone is handed over to you, how to deal with it yourself." ”

Ke Junxia came back dejected and thought about it all night, and the next day he found Shui Rou'er again, authorized her to handle the construction of the pressure well, and warned her that the pressure well and the canal are equally important projects, and the fortress town now lacks talents and honest labor, and must not do this kind of thing of tearing down the east wall and making up the west wall.

Then he fabricated some seriousness and told Shui Rou'er.

Originally, Ke Junxia didn't have much hope for this method, it was just a dead horse as a live horse doctor, but he didn't expect to say this, Shui Rouer actually listened to it, and complained: "Why didn't you tell me earlier." ”

As soon as Ke Junxia saw that it was effective, he immediately struck while the iron was hot, and the next day he signed a formal order and letter of appointment, and sent Shui Rouer to the pressure well construction site. It's just that she wasn't lucky, and after she went, there were several earthquakes in succession, and the project was suspended, but at the same time, it also gave her time to familiarize herself with the business.

After solving a series of problems, Ke Junxia finally had time to sit on the top of the watchtower in the core area at dusk and drink the big fortress. But before it was ten minutes, the snow came up and said to him with a malicious smile, "Come to my room, I have something to say to you." ”

Since the last time he had an accident after drinking, Ke Junxia has been more careful, so there are taboos about men and women having contact alone, so he said to Piaoxue: "If there is anything to say, just say it here, or go to my office." ”

Piaoxue smiled: "It's really unclear here, you have to go to my place." ”

Piaoxue is a woman who usually doesn't smile, and a situation like today is indeed rare, Ke Junxia thought about it and felt that there should be nothing wrong, so he reluctantly agreed.

When he arrived at Piaoxue's non-commissioned officer's room, Ke Junxia realized that it was not Piaoxue who had something to say to him, but asked him to answer a phone call, and the person who called was Coconut.

Coconut Shawl asked: "I've been gone for so long, you found a romantic seed and deceived a few infatuated women, hahaha." ”

It's a joke, of course, and then gets to the point.

It turns out that Coconut has been working on the floating city for a while now, but he can't always integrate into the floating city group. As if deliberately isolated, she found that Fucheng is not only a technical support organization, but also seems to be conducting its own research, including the deep-water blasting project, which is still in the process of research and testing.

Ke Junxia was a little unimpressed by this, "We're not fighting pressure wells, as for the solution to the disaster, of course, the more the better, maybe that's it." ”

Coconut also smiled and said that she might be too careful, and then asked Ke Junxia when she would come to see her, she was very lonely, and the man here didn't call at all......

Ke Junxia only took this as a joke, and said to her: "Now that half of my bed is empty, I can take the position when I come back." ’

So the two talked for a while and chatted happily.

Putting down the phone, Piaoxue suddenly said, "You still have to go to your heart." ”

Ke Junxia thought it was a matter of fighting the gang at first, so he said to Piaoxue: "What's this,...... A slap doesn't make a sound, my current state, the coconut will not have anything to do with me. ”

Piaoxue said: "I didn't say this, you, as the city lord, have no shortage of communication tools, why did Sister Coconut call here for you to answer?" Maybe she's found something, and it's risky. ”

Ke Junxia was stunned for a moment, feeling that what Piaoxue said made sense, but he couldn't think of any problems with Lady Shui's floating city.

Piaoxue said again: "I think, you better transfer Sister Coconut back, she is a person, she likes to investigate the roots, as the saying goes, curiosity kills cats, and if you don't get it right, you will get into trouble." ”

"No......" Ke Junxia didn't believe it, but he was really not very sure, and was hesitating, Piaoxue said again: "You'd better issue a dispatch order now, and I'll send it." ”

Ke Junxia was still hesitating, because the coconut was personally wanted to leave by Mrs. Shui, and it was also part of the covenant between the two parties, and now it was somewhat inappropriate to transfer back the coconut without consulting Mrs. Shui.

"Give me some time to think about it, can you do it tomorrow morning?" Ke Junxia said.

Piaoxue shook her head and said helplessly, "If you insist...... All right. Sister Coconut can also protect herself very well, and it shouldn't be a big problem for one night. ”

But Piaoxue's words still worked, Ke Junxia didn't fall asleep in the middle of the night, and simply got up in the middle of the night to issue an order, and lifted Piaoxue in pajamas from the bed and let her set off overnight.

At dawn, Drifting Snow rushed to Fucheng, only to be told that there was a situation on the other side of the Grand Canal, and that Coconut and some other armed men had taken an airship to the Grand Canal last night.

Piaoxue is also a woman who will never give up until she reaches her goal, she contacted Ke Junxia to inform the situation, and immediately set off and rushed to the Grand Canal construction site.
