Xia Chen has always been a person with strong action, and the idea of moving just flashed in his mind in the afternoon, and he held a family meeting in the evening to discuss the matter.

He didn't meet very often, and every time he did, he would announce something important.

In my impression, the last time we had a meeting was when we had just subdued Yin Bu, Ugly Fish, and Lalu Lasi, and the content of the discussion was the secrets of the elves.

After two years, the second family meeting was held again, and this time there were many more "people" in attendance.

Counting Gu Letun, who temporarily flickered into the team, Xia Chen's team now has a total of eight elves.

If you add in the special Doron Messia and the electronic ghost Lothom lurking in the phone, that's ten.

A large family sat around the dining table lively, looking curiously at Xia Chen, who was the head of the family, and didn't understand what he was doing when he suddenly held a family meeting.

"Quiet, everyone listen to me."

Although the elves didn't whisper, Xia Chen still started like this.

"As our family grows bigger and bigger, and Doronki and Slime are about to evolve, this house is a bit cramped to live in."

In the afternoon, some of the three elves, who had just had a unilateral conflict with the furniture, nodded their heads in agreement.

As for the patriarchs of the family, Xianbu and Shanaiduo did not object.

Although the bigger the house is not the better, and the small one is also very warm, but no matter what, the size must always satisfy everyone.

Looking at the elves who did not object, Xia Chen nodded and continued: "So, home, it is definitely going to move, and today's topic is, where to move?" Okay, let's discuss it freely. ”

For ordinary people, there are only a few conditions to consider when moving, size, location, price, and transportation convenience.

But for Xia Chen, these are not the most important.

The size, the bigger the better, after all, almost ten elves have been subdued in two years, and I don't know how many will be accepted in the future.

The location and traffic don't matter, there is a reason for Loton to be there, and it doesn't take much time to get back and forth from the city.

Not to mention the price, the string of numbers in the bank card is still getting bigger and longer, and Xia Chen feels a little uncomfortable if he doesn't spend it.

When these are not constraints, the only thing to consider is two words, like.

…………

The elves have different opinions on this element.

Xianbu said that between the mountains and wilderness, the gurgling water, and the life surrounded by nature is the most comfortable.

Menas, on the other hand, prefers the proximity to the lakeside, where the water is wide and the sky is high.

These two solutions are the mainstream solutions recognized by most elves, but different elves have slightly different preferences.

Of course, there are also non-mainstream views that suggest building a house next to a gold mine.

However, as soon as this suggestion was made, it was quickly rejected by all the elves except Saifu.

After some screening and elimination, the choice of the new home address enters the finals, the mountains and rivers, or the water and the sky?

Looking at the intensity of the quarrel and the gradual increase in the volume of the two elves, Shanaiduo, who was holding a neutral party, was puzzled and asked, "Saina... (Can't you choose both...) ）”

This soul question directly silenced the elves.

The leaders of the two sides of the party dispute, Senbu and Menas looked at each other.

Suddenly I felt that the quarrel just now was a little stupid...

Wouldn't it be nice to settle down on a beautiful island like the island in the middle of the cauldron lake, with high mountains and lakes?

The elves who had unified their opinions looked at Xia Chen, who pondered slightly.

Moving to a lake island? Very good advice indeed.

Zhijiang is located in the south of Donghuang, the second longest river in Donghuang area, at the mouth of the Yangtze River.

In addition, it is adjacent to Yunze Lake, the second largest lake in the Donghuang area.

Although the size of Yunze Lake and the number of islands are not as large as that of an inland sea, it is quite large, with an area of more than 2,000 square kilometers.

Menas's hometown, Lingyi Mountain, is the most famous of the many islands in Yunze Lake, and it is also the one with the highest degree of commercial development, Lingmiao Island.

On the vast Yunze Lake, there are countless undeveloped islands in the middle of the lake.

Maybe you can ask about the alliance by the way when you inquire about the opening of the gym?

It's also a good idea to build your new home and gym on an island.

The issue of moving was settled for the time being, and Xia Chen announced the successful conclusion of the meeting.

The elves did not disperse immediately, but discussed the move with longing and excitement.

Although elves are intelligent creatures, mentally they are not much different from children of six or seven years old.

Of course, except for the old Letun, who has lived for an unknown amount of time, and the immortal cloth who has been reborn.

However, under the influence of the atmosphere, these two "old guys" couldn't help but participate in the discussion.

Especially Xianbu, who has experience in building a gym in her previous life, she has become the most talkative one.

Looking at the twittering elves, Xia Chen shook his head with a smile, and then took Lothom back to the room to inquire about the relevant information of Yunze Lake Island.

Connected to the internet, Lothom knows almost everything.

After a while, with the help of Lothom, Xia Chen learned the general information of Yunze Lake.

To put it simply, there are more than 300 large and small islands on Yunze Island, and if you filter it, the area is more than one square kilometer... It was sharply reduced to more than 30.

Among them, nearly 20 are commercially developed.

In addition to Lingyi Mountain, the most famous is Donghuang Water Attribute Gym, Dongze Island, where Yunze Daoist Hall is located.

Xia Chen definitely didn't think about these developed islands, so he turned his attention to another big island, Huanhuan Island, located in the northwest of Yunze Lake.

…………

The reason for this strange name is not that the terrain of the entire island is a circle, but because there is a circle of bears on the island.

No one knows why this island is called Circle Island instead of Bear Island.

No one knows why the lap bears, which usually live alone, live in herds on an island, but it happened naturally.

It is for this reason that this island, which covers an area of more than 30 square kilometers, has never been developed.

The Circle Bear is one of the most ferocious elf races in the wild, and those who can compete with it for territory are usually heavyweight elves like Bankiras.

That's not all it takes for a lap bear, let alone a group of at least thirty or more.

According to the third of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence of Human Elves, when humans set foot on the land inhabited by elves, they must preserve their habitat to the greatest extent.

Therefore, even if the enclosure island is to be developed, it is necessary to leave a large enough habitat for the enclosure bear on the island.

So the question is, in a tourist attraction with so many wild bears, will anyone feel safe to play?

Well, if you really open a farmhouse on it, I don't know if it's a tourist or a circle of bears...

In short, the commercial development of Huanhuan Island is too cost-effective, and the Zhijiang municipal government simply ignores the third largest island on Yunze Lake.

After reading the information on Quanquan Island, Xia Chen's index finger tapped lightly on the table, thinking about the feasibility of opening a gym on this island and building his new home.

Undoubtedly, whether it is the size of the area or the natural conditions, this place is very much in line with the demands of the elves and themselves.

The problem of the bear does not need to be too worried.

The elves on the islands of Yunze Lake will not exceed the Daoguan level on the left and right.

Taking a step back, even if there is really a champion of the Heavenly King, he has to lie down obediently in front of Gu Leton.

On the contrary, if they are recruited, this group of bears can also become the escort of the private island of Circle Island...

Well... The name Circle Island is so ugly that it has to be changed.

What should I change for?

Xia Chen didn't react, and in a flash, he had already begun to treat Quanquan Island as his private island...

With a beautiful fantasy of his future life, Xia Chen fell asleep peacefully.

——————

When the sun shines in the sky, Xianbu smiles at me.

The weather was sunny and the sun was just right.

After a long absence, I slept until I woke up naturally, and when I opened my eyes for a long time, I saw Xianbu's dreamy and somewhat distorted blue eyes.

Xia Chen lifted the quilt and stretched timidly.

Sure enough, the mountains and rivers are good, not as good as the bed at home, this is the most comfortable sleep of Xia Chen, who has some bed recognition, in half a year.

Rubbing the fluffy and soft belly of Xianbu who was lying on his back and yawning beside him, Xia Chen greeted with a smile: "Good morning, Xianbu, it's okay if it's not good, whatever you want~"

Xianbu was disgusted on the surface, but in fact, he snorted in his heart, and replied with a lake: "Bui... (Good morning...) ）”

On the other side, Shanaiduo also looked at Xia Chen with a snow-white face, and the crimson child's hole was full of anticipation.

Xia Chen helped her comb her hair that was a little messy after a night's sleep, and her movements were soothing and gentle.

Shanado's little hands shrunk in the quilt were clenched tightly.

Some nervous, but even more anticipating.

Xia Chen pretended not to notice Shanaiduo's abnormality, and after combing his hair, he took the opportunity to move his hand away.

The warmth above her head faded away, and her clenched little hands loosened with relief, and her face was flushed.

"Saina... (Early... Good morning)"

Listening to Shanaiduo's sweet and shy voice, Xia Chen's heart tightened, and he quickly got up to make breakfast.

Because I got up late, it was almost ten o'clock after breakfast.

But it's nothing, the holidays, time is wasted.

Having just won a championship, Xia Chen forced the elves to take a week's vacation, during which the elves needed to supervise each other, not to train, not to fight.

If you find an elf who secretly rolls in, you will punish it for eating takeout for three months!

This sounds a little ridiculous, it doesn't look like a punishment at all, but for the elves whose appetite has been raised by Diao Xiachen's family, it is a punishment that is much more serious than three months of continuous high-intensity training.

So they all obediently put away their thoughts about involution and completely forgot about training.

At the moment, they are scattered all over the house, playing games, or leisurely basking in the sun.

Xia Chen didn't accompany the elves, and when he returned to the room, he dialed a number that Jiang Qian had given him a long time ago, but had never called.

…………

"Hey, it's... Miss Yan Shu? ”

Xia Chen looked at the name on the business card and greeted him a little unfamiliarly.

"Mr. Xia, it's... Woo woo, you're finally calling! ”

The girl on the other end of the phone seemed to be a little excited, and the slight crying made Xia Chen think of the poor girls who were abandoned by the scumbag.

If he wasn't sure that he really didn't know her, Xia Chen would have suspected that he was that scumbag.

He asked tentatively, "Uh... Is there anything I can help you with? ”

In the inexplicable atmosphere, Xia Chen had forgotten the purpose of his call.

But Xia Chen forgot, Yan Shu on the other end of the phone didn't forget, she sorted out her emotions, and hurriedly replied: "You laughed at Mr. Xia, as your assistant, I should ask this sentence." ”

That's right, the phone call Jiang Qian gave was the personal assistant she had for the company's boss Xia Chen.

However, Xia Chen has never needed it, so naturally he has never dialed this number.

It is precisely because Xia Chen has not looked for her as an assistant for more than a year that Yan Shu will be extremely excited when he receives this call today.

Myself... Finally a performance bonus!

As the boss's assistant, Jiang Qian's salary for her is certainly not low, but the majority of the salary must come from performance bonuses.

The boss hasn't given the task for more than a year, so she naturally has no bonus.

Not to mention the task, I haven't even made a phone call.

Today I finally see hope!

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel excited in her heart, she must do something beautiful for him today.

If you let yourself pluck the feathers of the Phoenix King, you must not pluck the lightning bird!

"What is the matter, just tell me!"

Listening to the energetic voice on the other end of the phone, Xia Chen said: "There is one thing that needs your help to do, the application for the gym and the application for land purchase......

It took him ten minutes to roughly explain his ideas and strict explanations about opening a gym and buying an island in the past few days.

“... That's probably it, do you still have any questions? ”

Xia Chen concluded.

"No problem! You'll receive an initial response by tonight! ”

Yan Shu gave a promise.

"Okay, then I'll wait for your news."

Hanging up the phone, Xia Chen nodded with satisfaction.

Sure enough, there is an assistant, which is more cumbersome, and it is much more convenient to run around and deal with various departments.

…………

The little assistant was very efficient, and before she could wait for the evening, in the afternoon, when Xia Chen was playing [Elf Killing] with the elves, her phone called.

"Mr. Xia, there is a response to the matter, saying that it needs the approval of the alliance headquarters, and the approval can be approved immediately when it comes down to Zhijiang."

Yan Shu didn't talk nonsense, and explained the current situation concisely.

Xia Chen was surprised: "Is the efficiency of the government so high now?" ”

Yan Shu replied proudly: "Don't underestimate our strength, this year, we should be the highest tax payer among all enterprises in Zhijiang." ”

Although it was only July, her excellent performance made her say this sentence in a loud tone.

Xia Chen nodded suddenly, in this case, it makes sense...

He asked instead, "Then we need to go to Beijing, right?" ”

The headquarters of the alliance in Donghuang was naturally located in the capital Shangjing.

Yan Shu replied: "That's right, you'd better go too, this kind of project definitely needs to be there in person." ”

Xia Chen nodded in understanding, after all, he was applying to open a gym.

Even for the entire Donghuang trainer world, this is a very important matter.

"Okay, then... Book a ticket for an early tomorrow morning. ”

I don't know when the news of the Fourth Flavor Secret Plant will come from Paipa side, and the matter here must be dealt with as soon as possible.

"Understood, I'll send it to you when it's ready."

The assistant obeyed.

Hanging up the phone, Xia Chen looked at the elves who looked at him one by one because the game was stopped.

He raised his mobile phone, "You also heard, tomorrow you are going to Beijing, which of you wants to be together?" ”

Undoubtedly, there is a forest of large and small colorful arms in front of him.

Xia Chen rubbed his eyebrows helplessly, "Okay, then let's go together." ”

If he really wants to put an elf at home, he is not very relieved.

After a while, Yan Shu's text message came, and it would be a flight at nine o'clock tomorrow morning.

So, two days after returning to Zhijiang, Xia Chen had to leave non-stop and go to Shangjing, who had not been back for half a year.

…………

July 15, Beijing.

Although this was not Xia Chen's first time in the city, it was his first time in the alliance headquarters in the Donghuang region.

In this world, the functions and powers and responsibilities of the alliance are even greater than those of the town government in the previous life, so the alliance headquarters is quite majestic.

】

Xia Chen's visit to the Gym Department in the Central Building, which only serves the seventeen Gyms in the region, was relatively leisurely, and he was able to make an appointment for a free service time.

As soon as he got off the plane, Xia Chen rushed over with the little assistant Jiang Qian had arranged for him.

The headquarters of the Donghuang Alliance is very large, and it took about ten minutes from entering the door to arriving at the floor where the Daoist Department is located.

Along the way, Xia Chen received countless attentional gifts.

He has just represented the Donghuang region in the World Youth Championships to fight a legendary battle that has attracted worldwide attention, and he is on the cusp of the storm and his popularity is unprecedentedly high.

High visibility brings not only attention, but also attention.

The person who received Xia Chen's visit was the minister of the Ministry of the Daoguan, Lian Shuxiang, who had served as the Four Heavenly Kings.

Lian Shuxiang was the king of the last century, and today, he is almost at the age of retirement.

However, people are not old-hearted, just from the tiger's walking posture, it can be seen that he has not stopped exercising his body.

Speaking of which, the older the trainer, the more important his physical fitness, and there were not so many high-tech gadgets at that time, and the risk of exploring and practicing in the wild was higher.

Even some of the elders' own fighting abilities are comparable to those of elite-level elves.

Lian Shuxiang sat down in the main seat of the living room and greeted Xia Chen in a neutral voice.

"Haha, Mr. Xia Chen, it's better to see than to hear, it's really young and promising."

Xia Chen replied with a very face-saving face: "Joke about Minister Lian, I grew up watching your game, and your style of play has a great influence on me. ”

Lian Shuxiang smiled and didn't discuss the topic again.

If you ask about "that game", "which elf" or something like that, Xia Chen can't answer, it's actually himself who is embarrassed.

After a brief greeting, the two officially got down to business.
