We Miss the Young Lady!

Li Yao was also captivated.

What's wrong with Lin Xiaoxi's behavior?

However, before Li Yao could even confront Lin Xiaoxi in the group chat, twenty red envelopes had already been sent out in a flash, and there were more!

Li Yao was quick-witted and nimble-fingered!

They clicked on them one by one!

Lin Xiaoxi only yelled and rushed to grab the red envelopes after the notification that they had been claimed! In the end, Li Yao's speed was slightly better, and he grabbed nineteen red envelopes, while Lin Xiaoxi only got eight.

Group chat. "..."

Chen Tienan's eyes widened. "So this is all a scam! This 'lucky koi' is just Boss Li's alternate account!"

But what's the point?

Back then, the crazy moves on the Esper World Forum earned everyone at least tens of thousands, and some daring individuals even made close to a hundred million, such as Boss Zhou Li, who has since been transferred to Modu. So they couldn't understand why Boss Li did what he did.

Li Yao had also thought of this, so he simply took a picture of Lin Xiaoxi and posted it in the group. "I'm not trying to trick you guys. This is that lucky koi!"

Those who are still single in the group are excited!

From China With Love: "Hey girl, look at me! Please recognize me!"

The Local Boss of Dragon Tiger Mountain: "Get lost! What business is it of yours! Girl, look at me~"

Lin Xiaoxi completely ignored them and went straight to confront Li Yao: "What do you mean by 'that one'?"

Who taught you measure words?! Li Yao then said in the group, "I'll give you this red envelope first, and I'll pay you back when we all win the lottery."

"Lin Xiaoxi has left the group chat."

Li Yao: "???"

Everyone: "..."

Lin Xiaoxi put away her phone and sneered at Li Yao, "You've spoiled me rotten!"

Then he went to Maeve to continue working on the Worry-Solving Consultation Desk project.

Li Yao sent all the money he had just received, as well as the money Lin Xiaoxi had taken, back to the group chat. "Alright, alright, everyone, let's all disperse. It's just that you two weren't meant to be. ┐(-;)┌"

Everyone: "..."

So, was it all for nothing?

Li Yao also put away his phone, rested for a while, and then began to study magic knowledge, while also learning new spells.

The tavern's daily routine is as chaotic as ever.

Big Sis Feng Li the Midnight Bar next door, has been quite busy these past few days.

She began frequently traveling between Maeve Manufacturing and Midnight Bar.

Maeve Manufacturing needs to carry out infrastructure construction, recruit manpower for production, set up defenses to prevent invasion, and even coordinate with higher-ups to dispatch Wallfacers to be stationed in the provincial capital.

These things piled up Big Sis Feng Li extremely busy and overwhelmed.

It's not just Big Sis Feng Li,

Except for Xiao Zhao, who wasn't very quick-witted, everyone else was ordered around by Big Sis Feng Li.

Old He is mature and steady.

Therefore, he was mainly responsible for matters related to Maeve Manufacturing.

Shuisheng Ge and Wang Meiling helped review the Wallfacers for transfer to the provincial capital – not because they were skilled at qualification review, but because Wang Meiling's special ability allowed her to make a rough judgment about people. After their initial screening, they handed the list to Big Sis Feng Li for further review.

Now, the Wallfacers want to develop the provincial capital as their second headquarters.

No one knows why Madam Qian made such a big move, let alone why she suddenly attaches so much importance to the provincial capital.

Not to mention foreign forces! However, they also did a lot of analysis.

Some people say that Su Province's economy ranks among the top in the country, that it has a good geographical location, and others say that it is imitating the practices of the Ming Dynasty.

Transform the provincial capital into a "Southern Capital," echoing the north.

With Lu Xingshen, the Sword Holder from the Wallfacers, advancing to the seventh rank and entrusting the provincial capital as his second headquarters, radiating influence throughout Central China, East China, and even Southeast China... many foreign powers thus concluded that establishing a presence in the provincial capital was a very significant strategic move! Of course...

Many people are also speculating whether this incident was caused by some unscrupulous individual, the one who stirred up trouble on the Esper World Forum and made everyone lose a lot of money...

But no matter how innovative that thing is,

Is it worth it for the Wallfacers to make such a significant change? The same question was raised in Madam Qian's Red Brick Building office, and the person who raised it was none other than Lu Xingshen!

Lu Xingshen: "Even if that kid is willing to share his technology, is it worth us going to such lengths to change the landscape?"

Madam Qian: "Actually, all the forces' analysis of us is correct - you are already at the seventh level, and it's time to announce the position of Sword Holder. Then you will guard Jinling, mainly handling affairs in East China, Middle East China, and some parts of South China."

Lu Xingshen: "Then the Northwest and West China..."

Madam Qian: "Xiao Liang is currently helping me with that."

Lu Xingshen: "Okay."

Madam Qian: "Then we'll hold an appointment ceremony for you and Ye Yu once the Maeve Manufacturing in Nanjing is completed."

She looked at Lu Xingshen with a gentle and satisfied smile.

Lu Xingshen was her student.

And she was his teacher.

After so many years of teaching, her student is finally able to take on important responsibilities, and she is in a very good mood now.

very good.

She sat down next to Lu Xingshen, her tone as gratified as if speaking to a proud student who had graduated years ago and achieved great success, "From now on, you will be another deterrent to the Wallfacers. You must understand the meaning of the word 'deterrence,' and not turn 'deterrence' into 'fear.' We don't need to use fear to intimidate others. A sword hidden in its sheath is the most threatening."

We should even befriend them when necessary.

Letting them feel our strength will not bring oppression, but rather make them feel at ease and confident.

Lu Xingshen nodded in understanding.

Madam Qian added, "You've done a great job as the Sword Holder, and I hope you can also be an excellent deterrent."

Lu Xingshen nodded again.

Madam Qian dusted off her clothes. "Alright, you should go and talk to Ye Yu too. Once you officially take office in the provincial capital, I'll also hand over some special intelligence units to you."

Lu Xingshen stood up. "Okay, teacher."

He was always so respectful and serious in front of Madam Qian.

Because this is something truly worthy of respect.

He dedicated his entire life to this land and to people of morality.

Madam Qian sat down at her desk again. The furniture here was still from when the People's Republic of China was first established. Over the decades, the only changes were the internet access and the addition of necessary office supplies such as computers and printers.

Everything else was kept simple and traditional, without any extravagance.

Madam Qian touched the edge of the table.

This is a solid wood table. After so many years of use, the edges of the table have become smooth and warm, and there are even two small, rounded indentations.

She has been carrying this burden for far too long.

Now it's all good.

The students have grown strong and resilient enough.

I can help her deal with these problems.

Lu Xingshen walked out of the Red Brick Building, thought for a moment, and then called Ye Yu: "Hey kid, where are you?"

Ye Yu: "... Second Uncle, I was just looking for you! The First Special Dispatch Team is making a fuss! They're saying they want to go back to the provincial capital and don't want to train here anymore."

Lu Xingshen frowned! He came from a military background, and China doesn't have particularly strict discipline requirements! They especially dislike this kind of casual and free behavior!

So he was very unhappy when he heard Ye Yu say that.

What are they trying to do? Are they trying to incite a riot?! Lu Xingshen was about to give them a stern reprimand, he heard Ye Yu's phone being snatched away, followed by a buzzing voice on the other end. "Old Lu, is that you? We've all heard you're being transferred to Jinling to become the second Shocker? Take us with you! We want Miss Ye!"

This is the first update, and a huge wave of new characters is coming soon, plus a Mengzhu little storyline. So I need to carefully sort out the relationships between the new and old characters, and also delve into the plot details. So, this is just the first update today. Hope you enjoy it!
