"Good afternoon, Lord Mayor."
A few minutes later, Xiaocui saluted Chen Xing and said hello in the hall of the water station's main castle. This is a delicate-looking woman, about 25 or 26 years old. Although she is not as good-looking as Li Rou, she is not as good-looking as Li Rou. She has delicate features and is much better than ordinary women.
"Do you have a boyfriend?" Chen Xing asked straight to the point.
"Ah?" Xiao Cui was slightly surprised at first, then looked shy, lowered her head, and was a little afraid to look at Chen Xing.
broken……
Chen Xing thought to himself that the other party must have mistakenly thought that he was interested in her, so he quickly explained, "I have a friend who is interested in you..."
Xiao Cui raised her head, feeling a little disappointed at first, and then showing a puzzled expression.
"Do you know the radish responsible for the production?" Chen Xing asked.
"It's him!" Xiao Cui's face instantly turned cold, with a look of disgust. It seemed that she didn't have a good impression of Luo Luo.
"His current status is not low. He is responsible for the agricultural production of the entire Orchid Town. He is also a wilderness tree herder. His future is limitless." Chen Xing advised. As the saying goes, one parent protects the other's soil and water. Once upon a time, he also started working as a matchmaker part-time. It's not easy to be a good mayor. Like a big family, you need to take care of everything inside and out so that everyone can live and work in peace and contentment.
"He..." Xiao Cui said with a look of disgust, "Let's convince his tigress."
"What?" Chen Xing didn't understand.
"He has approached me several times, saying that he wants to marry me back and be his wife, and that he will live a good life with him in the future. But he just talks about it. Even when he comes to see me, he is sneaky. He is afraid of his wife to death. "Xiao Cui's voice was full of contempt, "I think he wants to have a little wife in his next life."
"That's it..." Chen Xing groaned and said, "You go back first, and I will ask him again."
After Xiao Cui left, Chen Xing sent Ye Qian to call Luo Bo.
"I'm telling you, boss, all the girls you have are more beautiful than the last. They are really enviable."
"Does your wife agree?" Chen Xing asked.
"Uh, this, this..." Luo Bao suddenly looked embarrassed and hesitated for a while, then said, "I'm not asking for help from the boss. I just want to say that I don't agree with my wife. Boss, please help me and talk about it. You She is the mayor, she dare not disobey you."
Chen Xing's face turned cold and he refused bluntly, "This is your family matter, I can't control it!" As the saying goes, it is difficult for an upright official to deal with family matters. Carrot's wife is Chief Sander's daughter. If he comes forward, Chief Sander will definitely be unhappy and think he is partial.
"If you don't care about me, there's nothing I can do." Luo Bao cupped his hands and begged, "Boss, you have to help me, I want Xiao Cui to die, and I just want to sleep on the kang with her, okay? …”
"No way." Chen Xing waved his hands impatiently, as if he was shooing away flies, "Li Rou, Bo Na, get him out!"
Li Rou and Bo Na immediately stepped forward, grabbing Carrot's arms from left to right and dragging them out.
"Boss, you are so romantic and happy every day, even if you eat meat, you have to give me some soup!"
The screams gradually faded away, and silence returned to the hall. Chen Xing leaned on the executive chair, put his feet on the desk, took out a portable screen, and passed the time.
After watching for a while, assistant Xiao Yang came in and reported beside him, "Boss, Elder Zhengyang wants to see you for something."
"Let him come in." Chen Xing agreed.
"Good afternoon, Lord Mayor." Elder Zhengyang came to the desk and saluted Chen Xing. Elder Zhengyang is the leader of one of the first three relocated tribes at the water station. He is now the town affairs officer with the mayors of Garid Village and Sander Village. He has organized the elders of more than a dozen refugee gathering places to form the "Orchid Town Refugee Management Association" ”, responsible for affairs related to refugees.
In order to manage the refugees well, Chen Xing also implemented some measures.
First of all, he divided the refugees into two types. One is the permanent residents of Orchid Town. They must meet the requirements of "residing for three months" or "having a fixed occupation in the town". After registration, they will be issued a "temporary residence permit". This is the same as on earth. China's policy towards foreigners is similar. Anyway, they just give them temporary status.
Because refugees have no identity, they have no scruples about committing crimes. Recognizing their identity to a certain extent will help reduce crime rates.
The other type is the sojourning refugee, who can only move around in a limited area of the town.
Before entering the town, migrants must pass the sentry inspection and register before entering the town. A strict control policy is implemented in the town. Resident refugees who commit crimes will be shot. Resident refugees will be recorded as guilty, deprived of their identity, expelled from the town, and shot on the spot as a result of the crime.
The facts of the crime are identified and adjudicated by the "Orchid Town Refugee Management Association". If you need force assistance, you can ask the security team in charge of the area for assistance. If necessary, you can report the situation directly to Chen Xing.
Secondly, he allocated funds to establish vocational training centers so that refugees can learn skills and return to work. Currently, there are only three types of courses available: Construction Workers, Agricultural Workers, and Living Corpse Hunters.
The training time is between one and two months, and then you can go to work and exchange labor for food. The first two professions are easy to understand, they are doing construction or farm work, while the living corpse hunter is the same as Chen Xing's previous job, going out to hunt living corpses, transporting them back and selling them to corpse merchants.
However, Chen Xing is now a big buyer of corpses. On the surface, he plans to open a rough processing plant, but in fact he is providing food for the ant nest.
In addition, Chen Xing also hired a large number of cleaning workers to clean up the garbage in the town, and planted some drought-resistant flowers and plants to beautify the environment.
"How is the situation?" Chen Xing asked casually.
"The crime rate during this period is almost zero. Everyone has a job and money to earn. However, some immigrants are uneasy and often fight and cause trouble, but there are no murders."
"That's good." Chen Xing nodded and then asked Elder Zhengyang's purpose.
"In the morning, Mayor Pang's servant went to the market to buy vegetables..." Elder Zhengyang hesitated and said, "I didn't give the vegetable seller any money..."
"That's it..." Chen Xing thought for a while and asked Ghost Fox to find Old Monster Hei and Qin Gui and ask them to accompany Elder Zhengyang to the small castle. Leandre Ralph has left, and the two guard-level players are enough to scare Pang Youcai.
"Go and tell him that if you don't have enough money, you can come to me to discuss it, but there are rules in the town. I hope he will restrain his men and prevent such things from happening again in the future." Chen Xing ordered. He estimated that this matter was not instigated by Pang Youcai. Pang Youcai was not short of such money. It must have been a servant who wanted to line his own pockets and deliberately bullied others.
"Go right away." Elder Zhengyang took the order and left.
At 3:30 in the afternoon, Jian Yue Cang Lian called the maid team to assemble and started training before dinner. First, I ran around the water station for half an hour, and then went to the underground training ground to train.
The training content mainly has two directions, one is physical exercise, and the other is the learning of maid skills. The former is endurance, body shape, muscle strength and other training, and the latter is sweeping and mopping the table, massaging and etiquette training.
Chen Xing was sitting on the cushion in the corner as usual, but this time he was not scanning the data of each maid.
[Name: Jian Yue Canglian]

[Social credit: perfect][Life status: healthy]

[Spiritual power: 56]
[Talent ability: Strengthened agility] [Field talent: Lava Mountains]
…
[Name: Ghost Fox]
[Title: Elite Sniper, Emerald Messenger][Identity Number: HumMs9003097483209]
[Social credit: good][Vital status: healthy]
[Life status: Health]
[Strength: 61]
[Agility: 39]
[Physique: 53]
[Spiritual power: 36]
[Innate ability: Wolf ears listening] [Field talent: Emerald Garden]
After this period of training and ample supply of medicines, Jian Yue Canglian was promoted to the guard level, Ghost Fox was promoted to the quasi-guard level, Li Rou and Bona were promoted to the elite level, and Ye Qian and Li Mei were promoted to the elite level.
Due to talent issues, the next four girls are almost at their limit and can no longer use potions to improve their abilities. There is a chasm between the guard level and the elite level. Those with talent can jump across it. Those without talent can only risk a narrow escape like Chen Xing and use hero potions, or like A Qiaomu, who has the talent for endurance. , then undergo body transformation and gritted their teeth to get through it.
But in fact, Aqiaomu’s path is not considered a path because it is too cruel and no one voluntarily undergoes body modification. If you have such determination, you might as well just use the hero potion.
During this period of time, other members of the master group have also improved to a certain extent, but most of their talents are not very good, and none of them have any hope of being promoted to the guard level.
But no matter what, Chen Xing's current strength can be regarded as the local tyrant in Edge Town. All the combat power added up, there are more than 300 people in the master group, more than 200 people in the town guard team, and five people at the guard level. There are more than twenty elites, and it is no problem to deal with one or two quasi-lords like Leander.
After all, Leander doesn't have any special bloodline. Once the Yuling dies, his physical strength is only slightly higher than that of an ordinary guard level, and he cannot withstand the siege of many people.
But then again, if they really faced off against the quasi-lords, it was hard to say how much loyalty the lower-level mercenaries and garrison members would have left. This is the terrifying thing about the top powerhouses. Even if their troops are completely crushed, they will still face the problem of soldiers being disintegrated.
For example, Trilice, as long as all the power of Ice Blue City is gathered together, let alone one Trilice, even two Trilice may not be able to stop her. However, how many soldiers can fight to the end without running away, or even defecting when the situation is not right.
You must know that in the battle between humans and humans, there are two options: "surrender" and "rebellion". Especially in the civil war of their own country, few people can fight to the death rather than risk their lives.
"Master, do you want to relax?"
While thinking, Li Mei came over with tea and asked.
"My neck is a little sore, come and massage it." Chen Xing kept his head down during this time, and the muscles in his neck were a little sore.
Li Mei immediately put down the tea tray, knelt down behind him, put her fingers on his neck, and kneaded gently and slowly.
After watching the maids' training, Chen Xing returned to the room to take a shower and prepare for dinner. He developed this habit in Ice Blue City. He started eating dinner after taking a shower, which was more comfortable.
"Shashasha..."
There was a soft sound in the closet, like a sharp object scraping the wood. It was obviously Suna sending worker ants to look for him.
Is there something going on at the Devil's Pot?
He thought of this immediately, because he would go down for a period of time every day, and Suna would not come to him unless there was something special. If this time comes, another round of bullying is inevitable, and Su Na has long been afraid. Su Na has always been afraid of that kind of thing, and it hurts every time she breastfeeds, so she hides whenever she can.
"Chi chi chi..."
Opening the cabinet door, a termite worker raised its head and called to him. He just took off his clothes and didn't bother to put them back on. He got into the corridor with a towel around his neck and got on the ant cart.
"Eee~Eee, Eee, Eee~"
Waves of brain waves echoed in the fluorescent incubation room, as if someone was working hard on something.
At first, Chen Xing thought it was the Devil's Pot, but he didn't expect that it was Su Na who gave birth to a new type of egg.
The egg was one meter and a half tall, oval-shaped, and emitted a faint white cold light that illuminated its surroundings.
"Brother, this is Su Na's new baby. It has been hatched in Su Na's belly. It can come out to see brother soon." The huge queen ant, wrapped in a black-gold carapace, emits cheerful brain waves. .
"Click, click, click..."
A small crack opened in the egg shell, and then it got bigger and bigger, and a termite with a translucent body came out.
It looks like a worker ant, one size larger. Its shell is like glass and completely transparent. You can see the organs in the cavity and the flowing milky white liquid.
"What can it do?" Chen Xing asked, pointing to the new variety.
"I don't know~" Su Na replied stupidly. She produces according to the instinct of the species, and she knows nothing about it. Just like fish are born to swim, elk are born to run, migratory birds are born to know migration routes, etc., they are all information stored in the gene chain, which is the species. Innate ability.
"Baby, show me, brother, what do you know?" Su Na sent out brain waves.
The new species of termites made a "cheeping" sound, ran to the corner, raised their heads, and "puff-puff" a few times, sprayed large amounts of white mucus toward the wall of the cave. Under the shell, the milky white liquid in the cavity decreases at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After spraying the white mucus, the new breed ran back and called to Chen Xing.
"What is it doing?" "No, I don't know..."
Chen Xing walked to the wall and wanted to touch the white mucus, but the new breed bit his pants and pulled him back. Chen Xing immediately understood that these white mucus should not be touched.
As time passed, the white mucus gradually seeped into the wall and finally disappeared, and the new species loosened Chen Xing's pants.
"What's wrong?"
Chen Xing stepped forward and touched the place where the white mucus had sprayed, and was surprised. It felt cold and hard, like stone. He immediately asked the worker ants to find a construction hammer, and when he hammered it down, sparks flew everywhere, but it was not damaged at all.
He was even more surprised. He was a man with more than sixty points of strength. I saw him swinging it down with both hands, "clang clang clang", and hitting it several times in a row before the stone surface cracked, and it turned out to be stronger than reinforced concrete.
"Tear!"
He pulled hard and finally broke off a piece. Looking under the dim fluorescent light, white mesh-like threads are connected between the stone-hard clods of soil. They feel tough and hard, just like iron wire, and the overall strength is higher than reinforced concrete.
"It turns out it's from Leiwo." Chen Xing suddenly said. He remembered that the scientific name of this kind of worker ant is "nest-building worker ant", then looked at the translucent guy and said, "I will call you a grout ant from now on."
The name comes from the grouting and cement truck, which is specially used to pour concrete on construction sites.
"Chi-chi-chi!" the nesting worker ants shouted happily, seemingly very satisfied with the name.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Chen Xing's mind, and he remembered a game he had played before traveling through time - Dungeon Guardian.
The game simulates the big devil building a kingdom underground, raising monsters, building mazes, setting traps, and defending against attacks by human heroes. As long as there are grouting ants, no matter how complex the underground construction is, it can be realized.
The more Chen Xing thought about it, the more excited he became. He was simply the future master of the dungeon. His eyes shone brightly, and Su Na was so frightened that she moved her bulky body back.
"Give me more babies, we're going to build a dungeon!" He ordered, his tone unquestionable.
"Okay, okay..." Suna replied timidly.
