In a flash, Chu Chen and the three of them stayed in the mountains for three days.

And in the past three days, the leadership in Ningqiu City has been unable to sleep!

The worries that make it difficult for them to sleep and eat come from three aspects: first, the situation in Beixian County; the second is the mutant earthworm under the ground of the outer city; The third is Chu Chen's safety!

Regarding the situation in Beixian, since two days ago, Liu Ruxu persuaded Jiang Huasheng to leave, and there was no news about Beixian.

The 'Dark Blade' in the base has always been a divine dragon that does not see the end of the dragon, and basically will not appear in front of everyone, only Chang He can contact them, in addition, Lei Jun and Lin Manyue also have the ability to find out a few 'Dark Blade' members.

It's just that Lei Jun was sent to the Peace Forest by Chu Chen, while Chang He and Lin Manyue followed Chu Chen out.

The 'Dark Blade' could not be mobilized, and other departments in Ningqiu City naturally had no way to get the news of Bei County, which made the leadership in the base very constrained, for fear that something unexpected would happen, and when Chu Chen came back, they had no way to deal with it.

And the mutated earthworms underneath the outer city are also a problem.

Although it is said that the two mage groups in the base have begun to take shape and are quite lethal, plus the archers organized by Zhang Shulin, even if the mutant earthworms attack in a big way, they can completely kill a large number of mutant earthworms and knock away all the other mutant earthworms.

It's just that the vitality and reproductive ability of mutant earthworms are extremely strong, and soon after they are defeated, they will make a comeback, and they are annoying!

Moreover, it is still a small problem to prevent a large number of professionals from resting normally, and the key is that every time they attack, they will destroy a large number of crops, which is the concern of the leadership in the base.

As for Chu Chen's safety, it is a topic that everyone avoids!

The bone dragon that was originally entrenched in the outer city was used to guard the farmland in the outer city, and the food grown in this field was the lifeblood and foundation for the base! The importance of this cannot be overstated!

But it was such an important bone dragon that was actually summoned away by Chu Chen, so you can imagine how critical the situation Chu Chen encountered?

On this point, the leadership of the base basically does not dare to talk about it casually, for fear that their words and deeds will affect the normal operation of the base.

It's just that not talking about it doesn't mean that things haven't happened, as long as Chu Chen doesn't come back for a day, the possibility of him having an accident will always exist, and naturally, the leadership in the base will have trouble sleeping!

……

However, if the mutant earthworms, the crisis encountered by Chu Chen, and the uncertainty of Beixian are all put aside, Ningqiu City can be regarded as entering a situation of stable development.

First of all, the number of survivors in the base has steadily risen to as much as 350,000!

With so many survivors pouring into Ningqiu City, there was naturally no way to arrange them all, and the plan for the 'third residential area' mentioned by Zhang Yuan before was naturally put on the table.

In this third residential area, Zhang Yuan was originally going to continue to build dormitory buildings, but later Chu Chen proposed the 'meritorious system' and apartment plan, so Zhang Yuan discussed with Jiang Xin and Liu Ruxu to double the area of this third residential area and design it into apartment buildings!

Naturally, the newly built apartment buildings are not built for the survivors who have newly joined the base, and about half of the apartments are allocated to the City Guards, the Knights, the Druid Legion, and the two mage regiments!

These five legions, with their families, took the lead in moving into the apartment building in the base.

After occupying nearly half of the apartment, this group of survivors walks in the base with the wind, as long as they don't see the leader, they hold their heads high when they see everyone, that's called a pride!

The rest of the apartments are all marked with numbers and hung on the meritorious wall of the base.

This merit wall is a wooden wall erected in the newly established office hall of the base, which is full of numbers, and each number has a corresponding item, or equipment, or materials, or various scarce daily necessities, of course, most of the apartments are also hung on it.

In addition, in this office hall, there is also a detailed plan on how to obtain merit points, how to use them, how to exchange them for nobles, and how to exchange them for the privileges that nobles have.

As for the person in charge of this office hall, it was an ordinary survivor personally selected by Jiang Xin.

This person's name is Shen Haifa, a cousin of Shen Xing, who is forty-nine years old, but he has worked all year round and is still in good health.

Jiang Xin arranged for him to be the person in charge of this office hall, mainly because when he was in Yuanze Lake, his reputation was quite high, and after he came to Ningqiu City, the way he treated people and things was also convinced by many people.

Originally, Zhang Yuan and others were not ready to participate in the construction of Ningqiu City, not only because the business alliance was busy, but also because Zhou Ling and others had gradually mastered the construction technology.

However, the difficulty of building an apartment building is much more difficult than that of a dormitory building, and these survivors poured into Ningqiu City together in a short period of time, so the construction time is relatively urgent.

When Zhang Yuan is mentioned, I have to talk about the branch alliance of the business alliance in Ningqiu City.

The number of survivors in Ningqiu City has increased dramatically, and the one who laughs the most is not Chu Chen, Jiang Xin and others, but Zhang Yuan, the leader of his business alliance in Ningqiu City!

With survivors, his Zhang Yuan's business has an object, whether it is an acquisition or a sale, only when there are more people, his business can be prosperous.

During this period alone, Zhang Yuan opened three branches!

Coupled with the headquarters established by the Business Alliance in Ningqiu City and the auction house approved by the Business Alliance, Zhang Yuan has a total of three large shops and two six-story buildings under his hands!

Received more, sold well, coupled with Zhang Yuan's rapid expansion, the transaction volume of the business alliance in Ningqiu City rose sharply, followed by Zhang Yuan's status in the business alliance, the tide rose!

Now Wei Shuo has a lot of plans, and he will deliberately discuss with Zhang Yuan before making a decision.

Even if most of the time, Zhang Yuan just listens and does not express his own opinions, he is the same.

Recently, Wei Shuo was thinking about seeing if he could hold an auction in Ningqiu City to start the reputation of the business alliance in Ningqiu City in one fell swoop.

After discussing with Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan's suggestion to Wei Shuo was: You can consult Chu Chen, but don't ask Chu Chen to participate, because Chu Chen himself is also busy, and Chu Chen has participated in a lot of auctions, and participating in auctions again and again will also make Chu Chen feel bored.

Since Zhang Yuan also felt that the plan of holding an auction was feasible, Wei Shuo began to prepare for this auction.

For the time being, he still stayed in the Peace Forest, buying all kinds of scarce items, including famous cigarettes and wine, high-grade raw materials, and of course, excellent equipment, pet eggs, job transfer certificates and other items.

However, Wei Shuo also discussed with Zhang Yuan, and planned to go to Ningqiu City in person to preside over the overall situation two days later, so as to avoid mistakes.

And the specific time of this auction will be decided after Wei Shuo arrives in Ningqiu City and discusses with Chu Chen.

……

In addition, while Ningqiu City is developing steadily, there has also been a major breakthrough in the armament forces in the base!

Among the 5,000 survivors trained under Zhang Min, the first Awakened One appeared, and the awakened profession of this Awakened One was a profession called 'Cavalry'.

It's strange that Zhang Min himself is a knight, but what he trained is actually a cavalryman.

Moreover, this kind of cavalry cannot recruit knight squires, but has corresponding attributes and skills, and appears more independent.

However, it's a pity that this cavalryman didn't comprehend any talent, and even if he only looked at the attribute panel, it was a relatively weak profession.

However, Zhang Min is very optimistic about this cavalry profession, she herself has been riding a mount for a long time to fight, and she has deeply experienced the power of cavalry!

Since the first cavalry appeared, Zhang Min also believed that as long as he continued to train like this, the second, third, and even countless cavalrymen would soon appear!

Therefore, after she applied to Jiang Xin, she recruited another 15,000 ordinary survivors to come in for training.

This amount was set by Jiang Xin, anyway, there are too many ordinary survivors in the base, rather than letting them be idle, it is better to let them train with Zhang Min, and they may also become professionals!
