After returning home, Lu Xin had a good rest for a few days.

He didn't know why. Although this experimental task was short, he felt very tired.

There is a feeling of seeing something big happen, and theoretically one should be happy about it, but not as happy as expected.

Not only him, but even his family members acted a little mysteriously when they returned from the sea this time.

In the past, almost every time they went out together, they would hold a family meeting. Now, from Happy Town to this time's preliminary experiment of Heavenly Kingdom Plan, they are all major events. It seems that it is logical to hold a fourth family meeting.

But until now, no one has mentioned it.

Lu Xin feels that this family meeting should be held, but he doesn't want to propose it himself. If his family proposes it, he will agree.

But unfortunately, his family didn't take the initiative to mention it, as if they were waiting for him to speak.

Mom has become busy again during this period. She leaves early and comes home late. She is rarely seen.

My father seemed to have become a little sneaky. After he came back, he spent more and more time hiding in the kitchen.

But recently, I rarely hear the sound of chopping bones and stewing meat.

Occasionally when Lu Xin comes home from get off work, he will hear the sounds of "chila" and "chila" coming from the kitchen, clear and clear, and the sounds of meat being cut.

Mysterious, what are you doing...

My sister hasn't been acting normally lately, and she doesn't like to stick to herself as much as before.

And every time before talking to myself, I always tilt my head and look at myself for a while before starting to talk.

Lu Xin doesn't like this feeling very much.

Family members should trust each other and communicate a lot.

Perhaps, the fourth family meeting should really be held, but when I think of this...

...Lu Xin I'm lazy again, just wait a little longer.

However, after this experiment, the weather in Qinggang was obviously different.

The changes on the surface don't seem to be big, but you can faintly feel a sense of confidence and vitality.

Lu Xin As a small manager of a business company, I can also feel some differences in life and work.

First of all, there are suddenly a lot more businesses in all aspects. A large number of businesses such as construction, transportation, procurement, etc. are constantly announced by major Satellite City Administrative Hall, causing Satellite City No. 2 groups and enterprises of all sizes to rush in frantically to compete for them.

Even the business company where Lu Xin works has grabbed several building materials transportation businesses, which is very profitable.

Lu Xin understands this. Qinggang is currently repairing Satellite City No. 6, which is of course a comprehensive and major project.

It stands to reason that the best way for Qinggang to accept Sea Nation residents is to break them up and fill them into the five Satellite City.

However, because the residents of Sea Nation have experienced some powerful pollution before, although various data show that these people have been cured after the initial experiment of Heavenly Kingdom Plan, out of caution, it is better to separate first.

Qinggang's current plan is to build Satellite City No. 6 first, temporarily resettle them, and then gradually plan.

Moreover, Satellite City No. 6 was built not just for Sea Nation.

After experiencing the "Treasure Hunting in the Wilderness" incident caused by Technological Church, a faint panic was spreading in the large and small gathering points scattered around Qinggang. This kind of panic has caused some people who used to pursue freedom and leisure and disdained the high-pressure life in Qinggang to start to change their thinking. Qinggang now also needs to think ahead and leave a certain place for these people.

Of course, whether it is peacefully absorbing and digesting the people of Sea Nation, or planning to bring gathering points in the wilderness under Qinggang's command, it is a complex and huge task. The professional people in the Administrative Hall are responsible for these, so you don't have to worry about it.

Instead of thinking about this, it is better to think about how to get the profit from these projects at hand...

After all, there are so many places where you need to spend money!

Han Bing didn't seem to be very busy during this period. Not only had she helped Lu Xin buy the villa that she had previously selected and completed the transfer, she also spent a lot of time accompanying Lu Xin in cleaning and repairing work before the official move.

Lu Xin really didn't expect that buying a villa would be so troublesome before.

Just hand over the money and give the keys, isn't that enough?

As a result, Han Bing, who didn't seem very busy recently, counted them for him bit by bit with his fingers.

Now that the villa has become your own, should you clean it, repair it, and redecorate the areas that don't suit your needs?

Want money!

Although I had helped Lu Xin secure several swings and seesaws before, this was far from enough...

Do we need to buy some new equipment and arrange it properly?

Want money!

Since it is prepared for the children in the orphanage, do the dormitories for the children also need to be carefully arranged?

Should they sleep in a bunk bed or bunk beds?

Will the orphanage continue to accept children in the future? Will it need to prepare more beds?

Therefore, it is necessary to consider whether it is necessary to open up some rooms, build a large dormitory, and purchase some new beds, as well as the game room, movie screening room, Old Era book collection and reading room that Lu Xin has longed for...

Want money!

In addition, the bedroom, study room, and office prepared for the dean must also be carefully prepared.

Taking into account the need to recruit other teachers in the future, we have to set aside several separate dormitories and a comprehensive office.

This does not include property fees and utility bills that need to be set aside.

The miscellaneous projects actually cost a lot of money Lu Xin is close...

... two hundred thousand!

It's almost worth a watch!

Lu Xin also felt a little emotional about this. "Life has really gotten better."

"Now I actually feel like I'm spending all my money, but I find that the money is not spent cleanly..."

"..."

The card that was given to Han Bing already had enough money to buy this villa.

Afterwards, Han Bing helped him go through special channels and saved some money, which was enough to cover the maintenance costs of the villa before moving in.

Coupled with Lu Xin's card, the previous Central City, Happy Town, eyeworm incidents, and even the fees for Heavenly Kingdom Plan's security work are also being remitted. Going back and forth and planning carefully, it really makes Lu Xin feel like money is just a string of numbers.

Therefore, after carefully calculating the cost of running a kindergarten, Lu Xin immediately made an important decision.

Deposit money in a bank in Qinggang and you will earn interest when you die!

So, after more than 10 million was deposited in the bank, Lu Xin once again had the motivation to continue making money...

Maybe this is the charm of money?

You can never make enough!

Although there are many things to do in decorating this new orphanage, with the money and Han Bing's help, it won't be a rush.

Because during this period, Han Bing often came over for this matter, which made Lu Xin think that they Special Purity Department were not busy now.

After asking, I found out that Special Purity Department is still very busy now, and she is the only one who is not busy at this time.

The people from the Special Purity Department were involved in the construction of Satellite City No. 6. The other five Satellite City projects to build the "Spiritual Amplification Tower" were inseparable from the people of the Special Purity Department. In addition, there is also the psychological adjustment of Sea Nation's people who have been polluted and treated, and guides them into the tasks of Satellite City No. 6's work, daily clean-up tasks, and negotiation tasks with Happy Town.

Qinggang has already started formal negotiations with Happy Town, and Lu Xin also knew about it at this time.

What he didn't expect was that the representative of this negotiation was actually Gecko...

And I heard from Han Bing that Gecko performed very well and didn't even cry on the way to Happy Town.

Just working on it slowly, in almost a month, the entire decoration work was completed.

Although subconsciously, Lu Xin still hopes to do it for a longer time, but there is really nothing more that can be done.

The villa, or rather the orphanage, was completely taken care of, and all that was left was to invite the people who should live there.

So that night after the last swing frame was installed, Lu Xin moved a chair and sat in the yard, holding his chin, quietly looking at this yard that had just been installed not long ago, but it gave him a strange sense of familiarity.

Han Bing walked out carrying a bucket and a stool and sat down next to Lu Xin.

There were several bottles of beer in the bucket. She opened one and handed it to Lu Xin.

Lu Xin took it and said to Han Bing with a smile, "I've really worked hard on you during this period."

"Mr. Single Soldier, if you keep saying such polite words now, it makes me feel uncomfortable..."

Han Bing said, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, that he did not drink. Instead, he held a cup of tea and drank it slowly. He smiled and said, "Now the dormitory, office, small playground, fruit trees, and even the vegetable garden are all ready. Is there anything you are not satisfied with?"

Lu Xin thought about it seriously, shook his head and said, "No more."

"I have a question..."

Han Bing suddenly turned to look at Lu Xin and said with a smile, "Mr. Shanbing is really serious about what he does. From choosing a suitable villa to now, you have personally selected all kinds of decorations and layouts inside and outside. You have also considered it very Zhou Quan. You even considered whether the children will be afraid of such details when they go to the bathroom at night because they pass through the long corridor. But what I am curious about is..."

She paused for a moment, then held the tea, turned to look at Lu Xin, and said, "You seem to have forgotten to leave a room for yourself."

"This..."

Lu Xin was startled by her question, and turned back to look at the small villa with warm lights in every room.

He slowly took a sip of beer, a smile appeared on his face, and said, "There are not enough rooms."

Han Bing nodded slowly and said with a smile, "I'm really curious as to who is worthy of Mr. Shanbing's attention."

She didn't ask, what was the reason why this villa with three floors, more than 30 rooms, four bathrooms, a cellar below, and a 200-meter yard couldn't even accommodate such a small room for one person?

Lu Xin drank beer slowly and felt that the yard was a little quiet.

After a while, he broke the silence with a smile and said, "Tomorrow, I'm going to pick up Teacher Lu and the others."

Take a breath and update again!!!
