Eldest Uncle: Come Work With Me From Now On

This... this...

The Cao Family's courtyard suddenly fell into an eerie silence. Everyone listened to Cao Fengqi's words, opened their mouths, and looked somewhat dazed.

This... a child under four years old, with a physical fitness level of 85?

85??

What does 85 mean?

They had been exploring the Lost Land for so long, and there weren't many others with a higher physique than this.

Even the physical condition of all these women was below 80.

This was even with their uncle/grandfather as their support.

The Cao Family now consists of 68 people, including Cao Jianjun, the 'head of the family,' and two Transcendent Sequence individuals.

One of them is their elder brother, Cao Jianjun's eldest son, Cao Fengzhi, who is also Artifact Refiner of the extraordinary profession.

The second is the eldest aunt's son, Song Hai, a member of the Gloom Ruins Night Watchman.

Besides these two extraordinary individuals, most of the men in the Cao Family also work in the Transcendent Arsenal.

The Cao Family lived a good life, but they had one problem: there were too many people in their family.

Cao Jianjun values family ties and has gathered all his siblings together, which has resulted in insufficient resources to go around, let alone for his children.

Now, in their eyes, this child from a poor relative in the countryside has a physical fitness level of 85, which is simply outrageous!

They didn't have much doubt about what the boy in front of them said.

Because they saw that the child's mother, that beautiful young woman, was gathering Transcendent Holy Fire with a simple gesture.

A healing light fell upon Lele, instantly healing her wounds.

They were from Tianbei Base City, family members of mid-level government officials, and they knew a lot.

Especially regarding the Lost Land' Transcendent Sequence.

It is clear that this young woman's extraordinary fireworks are not a common type of Transcendent Sequence, but rather a mysterious type of extraordinary skill that would be highly valued even within the official ranks.

So...

They looked at the boy again. The only reason he could speak and make decisions was that he was also Transcendent Sequence.

This surprised them somewhat.

At that moment, the young woman named Lele's mother's expression changed as she listened to Cao Fengqi's lecturing words.

She opened her mouth, but was speechless for a moment.

"Let's go, let's go."

"We've been playing for so long, let's go back to our room and rest for a while."

Cao Fengqi smiled faintly, spoke to Dabao Xiaobao, and then ignored the group of people.

It's true that my father had a deep bond with his siblings, but the younger generation hadn't seen each other for ten years, and they were only related as relatives.

How can there be any friendship if we don't even know each other's names?

"Oh, okay, Uncle."

Dabao Xiaobao Bao listened to Cao Fengqi very well and obediently agreed.

Liu Chunying smiled and followed her into the house.

Seeing them enter the room, the group in the courtyard exchanged awkward glances.

"Is it Fengqi's younger brother?"

Just then, Cao Fengqi and his group entered the house when a young man came in from outside. Seeing him, the young man smiled and walked over, patting him on the shoulder. "I'm your older brother, Cao Fengzhi. Dad asked me to get some food from the restaurant. Come on, let's go sit in the dining room."

"Hmm? Hello, brother."

Cao Fengqi glanced at the burly, square-faced young man and responded politely.

"Hehe, don't be so formal. When I first met you, you were still wearing open-crotch pants."

Cao Fengzhi smiled at him and said warmly.

"..."

Cao Fengqi smiled speechlessly. Cao Fengzhi, who had suddenly arrived, was friendly to him, he naturally returned the courtesy.

They followed him to the restaurant.

"Come on, let's eat. I specially asked Fengzhi to buy some food. It's been ten years, and our family is finally reunited. Xiaocheng Xiuxiu, come sit at this table."

"Fengqi, you, Chunying, and the two children will sit at the same table with us."

At this moment, the old man and his brothers and sisters also came over, and Cao Jianjun, who was in the lead, was happily making arrangements.

"Okay, sir."

Cao Fengqi saw them and responded.

He glanced around; there were five round tables in total, filled with adults and children.

However, the food they serve is noticeably more plentiful.

Level 5 Mystic Devouring Beast, Level 4 spirit vegetables, Level 3 fruit, and ordinary wine.

These are things that none of the other tables have.

Although the number was small, it was clear that this old man valued them highly.

Cao Fengqi was quite satisfied with this old man; he was the kind of person who would only be kind to others if they treated him well.

Otherwise, what about relatives?

"You bunch of little ones, let me introduce you. This is your..."

Cao Jianjun, the head of the family, put his arm around his younger brother's shoulder and introduced him to all the family members who had arrived.

The younger generation immediately greeted them, some looking at Cao Fengqi and his group with curiosity and astonishment.

"Let's eat!"

After the introduction, Cao Jianjun gestured to the crowd.

"That's too much."

Looking at the table full of food, Liu Xiuxiu thanked him with a big smile, "Thank you for your trouble, brother."

"We're family. Come with Xiaocheng. It's not easy for our family to be reunited, so we should have a good feast."

Cao Jianjun shook his head, looked at Dabao and Xiaobao, and smiled, "Come on, kids, don't just eat vegetables, eat some meat too."

"Thank you, Grandpa, but we won't eat it. You guys eat it."

Xiaobao saw this and said sweetly.

"Oh, this child is so sensible. Grandpa won't eat, you guys eat. You need to eat meat to grow strong."

Cao Jianjun smiled and got up to serve them some food.

"Grandpa, we really don't want to eat it, we're tired of it."

Xiaobao shook his head and refused again.

"???"

Her naive words startled Cao Jianjun, who had just stood up, and everyone at the table.

"Brother, have a seat. We still have several hundred pounds of this meat left. We've been eating it every day lately."

Cao Jiancheng pulled his older brother's arm and said, "You eat yours, don't worry about these two little ones."

"Knowing you like to drink, I got you some."

As he spoke, he took out the prepared Carved Fragrance Clear Flower Wine and handed it to him.

Cao Jianjun was stunned again after taking it, then looked at the ring in his hand in astonishment. "A storage ring, a level 6 wine, Xiaocheng, these are all good stuff, impressive!"

"Hehe, it's all Fengqi."

Cao Jiancheng, at this moment, was somewhat proud and said with a smile, "I've already told you, our family is doing well, you don't need to take such good care of us."

"Second brother, you're missing an arm, who would believe you if you said you weren't wrong?"

Cao Jianwen, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but say something.

My second brother had said he was doing well, but he had lost a son and lost an arm. How could they possibly believe him when he said he was doing well?

"..."

Cao Jiancheng looked at them speechlessly. "Am I supposed to take these things out and show them off to you? Am I supposed to say that your brother, your sister-in-law, my son, and my daughter-in-law are all superhumans?"

"Huh? What?"

Cao Jianwen was startled when he heard his words.

At the dinner table, everyone else stared at him in disbelief.

Even the people at the nearby tables looked over in shock.

"Holy crap?"

Cao Jianjun was stunned for a few seconds, then looked at him and exclaimed, "Xiaocheng, your whole family has become superhumans?"

"We only just stepped into the Transcendent Sequence a few days ago."

Cao Jiancheng smiled and said, "These Transcendent Sequence Rune were all obtained for us by Fengqi. Putting everything else aside, Fengqi is the most powerful person in our Liangmin County..."

As he spoke, he proudly gave himself a thumbs-up.

"Wow, that's impressive, little brother! What do you do for a living?"

Cao Fengzhi was at the same table, looked at Cao Fengqi in surprise and asked.

"The Artifact Refiner has just entered the Mystic Artificer Sequence."

Cao Fengqi looked at him and replied with a smile.

"Mystic Artificer? Mystic Artificer is great! Your older brother Fengzhi is one too. The three of us are all Mystic Artificer, haha, that's why we're considered family."

Upon hearing this, Cao Jianjun looked at him with delight. "Fengqi, come work for our Transcendent Arsenal. I'll make arrangements for you; you can work with me and your brother from now on."

"No, sir."

Cao Fengqi shook his head. "I've already joined the Spark Guild."

"Hmm? The Spark Guild?"

Cao Jianjun frowned, then waved his hand and said, "It's alright. Although each faction wields immense power, they still have to give the authorities some face. I'll have someone bring you over. Your grandpa here is a sixth-level Mystic Artificer, the deputy director of the Transcendent Arsenal's research and development institute. Come to my place."

"There's a saying that new bamboo shoots grow taller than old ones, all thanks to the support of the old trunk. With my guidance, it will greatly help improve your forging skills, Fengqi. Moreover, the development potential of the official platform is something that the Spark Guild can't compare to."

"Especially regarding regional security, the authorities take highly skilled individuals like us very seriously."

Cao Jianjun kept saying that he wanted his nephew to follow him, and that he could take care of and help him.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Cao Fengqi pursed his lips.

"Brother, no need."

Cao Jiancheng looked at his enthusiastic older brother and opened his mouth to speak.

"Why not use it? Fengqi is so young, with unlimited potential. Joining the official profession as Artifact Refiner means receiving professional training and personal guidance from highly skilled seniors. This is much faster than learning by trial and error on your own."

Cao Jianjun immediately shook his head at him, then looked at Cao Fengqi and continued, "Fengqi, don't listen to your father. Your father wasn't good at studying when he was in school, so in this area, listen to your uncle."

"..."

Cao Fengqi opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, then moved his hand and handed him the scrapped [Transcendent Vulcan Autocannon Project Research] document. "Sir, I just saw this scrapped research document on the coffee table. I've revised it for you, and it should be fine now."
