Stabilizing Madness

Chapter 76: The following guilty

Views:

As soon as Xu Qingran finished speaking, before Mu Ziyu even had time to move, another arrow brushed past his cheek and fell onto the board.

During the process, I accidentally scratched his ear, which made him shiver with pain.

Just as I was about to open my mouth to complain, someone in the distance started to complain first: "Tsk, I told you not to move."

Mu Ziyu: “…”

He clearly didn't move!

In a rage, another arrow pierced deeply into the right side of his cheek.

The long arrow was affected by the aftermath of the impact and swayed. Although it didn't scratch his ears this time, the mental fluctuations caused by the force of the shot still made his ears hurt and turn red.

His heart skipped a beat, and he asked angrily, "Xu Qingran, do you know how to play?!"

Xu Qingran pulled a new arrow and smiled nonchalantly: "Sorry, I don't think I can do it."

Xu Qingran had learned archery in his previous life.

But it was only used to hunt fast, highly maneuverable and flying beasts, and it was accurate to the point of being able to hit the target every time. As for humans, he hadn't aimed at them yet, so he thought their level should be average.

system:"… "

I can’t stand it, what kind of Versailles host is this.

Mu Ziyu didn't know about Xu Qingran's achievements in his previous life. When he saw him raise his hand and aim at his head again, and his posture of holding the bow and drawing the bow looked particularly casual, his heart began to beat wildly.

Xu Qingran put away his smile and asked him, "Will you give me the resources in Shangnanzhou?"

Mu Ziyu then realized that Xu Qingran was intending to threaten him in this way.

He gritted his teeth and said, "You caused several shareholders of Silver Dragon to withdraw their capital some time ago, and even the Mo family stopped supplying weapons. Now the whole camp is struggling, where can I find resources for you?!"

Just as he finished replying, the arrow in Xu Qingran's hand pierced his head.

It was unclear how far away it was from his head, but it felt very close.

Xu Qingran picked up another arrow and said without any extra words: "Will you give me the resources from Shangnanzhou?"

Mu Ziyu gradually realized that Xu Qingran's actions from just now to now were just tracing the outline of the human body and did not cause him any substantial harm.

He simply intended to use this method to threaten and intimidate him and force him to submit.

So Mu Ziyu relaxed a little, and continued to say stubbornly: "No! I won't give it to you!"

Yes, he is the third prince of the empire, and Xu Qingran doesn’t dare to hurt him at all!

Just as I finished thinking this, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my left hand which was hanging.

The bowstring that Xu Qingran had pulled tightly had already loosened, and the arrow that was shot out pierced his palm, nailing it tightly to the board.

Mu Ziyu gasped in pain and yelled at Xu Qingran, "What are you doing?! You are committing treason and must be punished! When I leave here, I will immediately remove you from your position and send you to the evil tower!"

Just as he finished speaking, he felt a similar sharp pain in his right palm. The pain made his head buzz and his hands soon became paralyzed.

Just a slight pull caused such pain that the flesh and bones felt as if they were being torn apart.

In Mu Ziyu's current state, what he said had no deterrent effect at all.

Xu Qingran pretended not to hear it. He uttered an "ah" and said, "I'm sorry. My technique is not good enough. I made a mistake."

Just as he finished speaking, Mu Ziyu's knee was hit by another arrow.

Xu Qingran laughed softly: "By the way, when you send me to the evil tower, remember to have someone be ruthless, and torture me to death if possible."

"Otherwise, not only can I kill you, but I can also kill your own father after I come out of the evil tower."

Mu Ziyu doubted his ears at first.

Looking at Xu Qingran's relaxed expression, he realized belatedly that he had been fooled.

How could Xu Qingran not be skilled

It's clearly the extent of hitting wherever you point!

Afterwards, Mu Ziyu was shot by Xu Qingran with several arrows in different parts of his body.

Xu Qingran no longer asked him the same question at the beginning, and just kept firing arrows, sometimes hitting his body, sometimes narrowly missing dangerous places. He never knew where his next arrow would hit, or whether it would avoid vital parts, which made him feel more excited than riding a roller coaster.

The blood from the wound stained Mu Ziyu's light-colored clothes.

It was not until another arrow grazed his neck and buried itself deeply into the board that he saw from Xu Qingran's calm eyes that when it came to killing, there was nothing he would not dare to do, no matter one's identity or relationship.

He just enjoyed playing with his prey.

He said that he, Yinlong, regretted not wanting Xu Qingran, this trouble, at the beginning!

When he gets mad, he is no longer a human being. He doesn't even care about his superiors. He is just like the rebels in Nanzhou!

Xu Qingran stared at Mu Ziyu's sweaty face and his eyes that were filled with anger, fear, and grievance that were about to cry. He curled the corners of his mouth slightly, and the arrow suddenly moved to his crotch.

With a whoosh, it hit the empty space below.

Mu Ziyu suddenly felt a chill in his crotch.

Finally, he panicked visibly: "Xu Qingran, aim carefully, don't touch the wrong places!"

As soon as he finished shouting, another arrow came.

The place where he landed was a little closer to some unspeakable place in his life.

Mu Ziyu's face turned really dark this time.

Looking at the gradually darkening sky and Xu Qingran who was becoming more and more unruly, he finally couldn't help but let go: "Alright, alright, I'll give it to you! I'll try my best to send some new resources to Shangnanzhou, okay!"

Xu Qingran did not reply.

The arrows in his hand were still being fired, and the landing points were getting closer to a certain part of his body.

Mu Ziyu was so shocked that he felt his entire body trembling. Seeing that Xu Qingran was unmoved, he could only grit his teeth and yell, "I'll give you the amount you mentioned in your email, okay?"

Xu Qingran sneered.

Sure enough, Mu Ziyu saw all the emails that were sent, but he didn't reply to any of them.

"I just gave you a chance but you refused. Now I've changed my mind." Xu Qingran said, "I want double the amount."

Mu Ziyu: “?”

He was so angry that he almost fainted: "You, you, why don't you just go and rob it?!"

Xu Qingran heard this and asked him, "Ah, is it okay?"

"I thought it was not possible. Now that you said that, should I just go and rob it?"

Mu Ziyu: “…”

That is definitely not possible!!

Silver Dragon might have had some internal problems during this period, but considering that the natural energy resources in the galaxy under Silver Dragon's jurisdiction are extremely rich, nearly twice as much as Gold Wing, it is impossible that they cannot even produce this little bit.

Xu Qingran thought about it and loosened his hand again.

The new arrow was embedded into the board almost right next to Mu Ziyu, and even cut through the fabric of his outermost trousers with a sizzling sound.

Mu Ziyu's whole body trembled violently.

Seeing Xu Qingran pull out another arrow without changing his expression, put it on the bowstring and pulled it towards him, he finally shed a tear of shame and shouted: "I promise, I promise, isn't that enough!!"

You can earn money again if you lose it, but you can never regenerate important parts if you lose them!

Xu Qingran raised his eyebrows, pinched the arrow with his fingertips, and put it down along with the heavy longbow.

He walked slowly to Mu Ziyu and asked, "Tell me, why are you doing this?"

If you insist on being stubborn at first, you will have to agree in the end.

The amount given is twice the original amount.

Mu Ziyu glared at him with a look of humiliation: "Hurry up, put me down!"

Xu Qingran did not move immediately, but pointed to the delicate brooch on her chest and said, "Don't think of going back on your word. I recorded the whole process, and the audio is also available."

"If you don't keep your word, I will release it and let all the people of the empire see you at your most shameful."

Mu Ziyu: “…”

He didn't understand. He was obviously the most honorable prince of the empire, so why could Xu Qingran threaten him like this

After finishing their business, the two of them were silent for a while.

Xu Qingran looked up at the hanging, and turned away from Mu Ziyu, who was tightly pursing his lips, with an unwilling and angry look in his eyes. His life seemed to always be like this, with all kinds of unwillingness and unwillingness to admit defeat, but he was powerless.

Suddenly, I asked him out of nowhere: "Why do you like archery?"

Mu Ziyu was stunned for a moment, and replied in a bad tone: "It's just interest and preference, why so many reasons."

"Don't change the subject!" Perhaps because too much blood had been lost, his face turned pale.

"I, Mu Ziyu, always keep my word. Since I have agreed to your request, I will not break my promise. Let me down immediately!"

Although Mu Ziyu's personality seems to be a bit sick, simple-minded and straightforward, he does whatever he thinks of, is indecisive and always has no firmness. But there is one good thing, that is, he will basically not break his promise as long as the prerequisites he gave are met.

Xu Qingran ignored him and asked again: "Then why do you want to become the supreme commander of Silver Dragon?"

"Is it because you like it too?"

Mu Ziyu was stunned by his question.

This was the first time he heard someone ask him this question in his nearly thirty years of life.

The voice of replying suddenly got stuck in my throat.

Since he was a child, Mu Ziyu has been described by others as a playful and mischievous dandy.

He prefers playing to studying, especially those exciting outdoor activities, such as horse riding, archery, paragliding, etc., or playing football, playing ball, parkour and other sports. He has little interest in governing the country and military planning and management, and knows nothing about it.

Ask him if he likes it

Come to think of it, he has not felt happy even for a single day since he took on the responsibility.

If you don't like it, why do you insist on being so persistent in the position of commander

Because this information, ever since he could remember, was like an instruction input into his head, telling him that he must fight for it and do it.

He wanted to have fun and pursue what he liked, so his mother cried in front of him late at night every day.

He said that this was the mission of his identity, and only by doing it could he ensure the future of them and their child. He was told every day that as a child of the royal family, he needed to fight.

And his father had many children.

Only the one who starts to take on greater responsibilities will be taken a second look by him.

Thinking about what happened in Silver Dragon Camp during this period, his mother worried about him and cried every day, and his father was disappointed in him, he was also very tired.

I don't want to live such a stressful life.

In silence, Xu Qingran said again, "Mu Ziyu, you are not cut out for this."

"You can't do this job."

Mu Ziyu was hit in a sore spot.

Maybe he was thinking that he had already lost all his face in front of Xu Qingran today, so he could only throw in the towel and yell, "I know I can't do it! So what can I do?! If I give up these, I will lose a lot of things!"

Of course he knew he couldn't do it.

In the past, he was able to hold on to his position because of the assistance of Wang Jian's veteran generals and officials, who helped him keep an eye on all matters in the camp and gave him advice. Now that they have all run away, his condition is getting worse and worse, and he has no one to rely on, and his life is in chaos.

Sometimes I really want to quit.

"What did you lose? Face? Praise? Flattery? Or attention that you have to pay a price for?" Xu Qingran asked calmly.

Mu Ziyu choked again.

Xu Qingran sneered: "Besides these empty things, you won't even lose your royal identity."

"So, what are you afraid of?"

Mu Ziyu was stunned when he heard this.

After thinking for a long time, I couldn't say a word of rebuttal.

Xu Qingran asked him coldly again: "Is it valuable to gain attention and affection by making yourself suffer?"

After asking, he didn't wait for his answer. He pulled out his mental knife, and with a few clicks, he cut off the handcuffs that were locked on Mu Ziyu's limbs.

The person on the board was caught off guard and fell to the ground.

However, he did not stand up angrily as he did in the past. Instead, he maintained the posture of falling, with his butt raised, staring at the small grass leaves in front of him without moving or saying a word.

As the sky gradually darkened, the surrounding Type I and Type II demons gradually showed signs of revival.

Xu Qingran had no intention of staying to provoke a conflict with them, so he turned and walked towards the direction where the aircraft was parked. Mu Ziyu heard his footsteps getting farther and farther away, and gradually came to his senses and remembered that he was abducted by him. He could only try his best to endure the pain in his body and limp after him before he disappeared.

When he got closer, he muttered, "It's easy for you to say."

"There aren't many children left in the royal family now. My second sister is now devoted to her scientific research. What will happen to Silver Dragon if I leave like this? Will he surrender to Golden Wing directly? That's impossible!"

"If Mu Ziyue really becomes the new king, I might not be able to live my life as I wish!"

Xu Qingran said without even turning his head: "It's simple, just find a reliable new commander."

"For example, someone as capable as me." The tone of the words was particularly humble.

Mu Ziyu was almost dumbfounded by what he said, and he cursed: "... Damn, Xu Qingran, you are so ambitious! You told me so much, but you are just coveting my position?!"

Xu Qingran chuckled: "Yes."

Mu Ziyu: “…”

Sometimes I really get annoyed with people like Xu Qingran who don't even want to tell a lie. Now I feel as if my heart has been fed to a dog.

Mu Ziyu's expression was distorted with pain every time he took a step. He grimaced and said, "It's useless to think about it. You are not from the royal family. It's impossible for you to take over the position of the supreme commander of the camp."

Xu Qingran was not angry, but said slowly: "To be honest, your feudal dregs should really be abolished."

"What if the royal family lays eggs as lame as you in the future, and they insist on picking the tallest one from the short ones to govern the camp? What's the difference between this and accelerating the demise of the empire in advance?"

Mu Ziyu: “…”

I can’t count how many times my heart was stabbed today.

The topic ended and there was silence again.

Mu Ziyu was feeling depressed when gunshots suddenly rang out in front of him.

He looked up when he heard the sound and saw Xu Qingran slowly lowering his hand holding the gun. And where he was looking, a small ball of red mist exploded.

Mu Ziyu, who was worried, realized that the group of demons around him had begun to expand and move slowly.

He was a little anxious and felt around frantically, but couldn't find any weapon on himself.

Injured, they could only limp along, staring anxiously at the demons rushing towards them from all directions.

Groups of demons rushed towards them one after another, as densely packed as the tide.

But every time before they could enter the attack range, these sub-body demons exploded and turned into countless small fragments falling to the ground. Mu Ziyu, who was so shocked that he hadn't even finished exploring the sub-body source energy, subconsciously looked up and found that Xu Qingran, who was walking in front, had already pierced their mother's source crystal.

Even if a few of them occasionally approached, he could accurately stab the target's source crystal with just one glance.

The striking action is both pleasing to the eye and full of a sense of security.

For the first time, Mu Ziyu intuitively felt how outstanding the outstanding student who had shocked the entire military academy was.

Wang Jian was right. Xu Qingran's perception talent was rare in the entire empire, not to mention the entire Grail Galaxy Cluster. No wonder those veterans were angry with him for throwing such a talent to a remote galaxy that the empire ignored.

He followed Xu Qingran silently and returned to the aircraft safely.

There was nothing to talk about along the way.

After he sat in the passenger seat, Xu Qingran spoke to him again.

The first sentence was quite straightforward and explosive: "Compared to you, I hate Mu Ziyue more."

"Since the Kaian Empire now only has you two eggs to choose from, before I remove you from the position of commander, I can change the public opinion status of the Silver Dragon Camp and the dissatisfaction of the people."

"As long as you listen to me, don't be stupid, and don't think about those unnecessary, childish and time-wasting little actions."

Xu Qingran didn't even look at him: "That's why I said you're incompetent. You don't have any opinions or thinking ability at all."

Mu Ziyu: “…”

He and Xu Qingran were really incompatible, and he felt like vomiting blood every time they talked.

"Since you are going to be controlled from both sides anyway, you might as well let me control you."

Xu Qingran smiled and said, "After all, I'm so capable. If this gets out, people will think it's understandable."

Mu Ziyu: “…”

I really want to curse. But when I think of how Xu Qingran just swaggered through the group of demons that gave most of the soldiers a headache, I feel that my anger is powerless.

Finally, he could only say sullenly, "That's easy for you to say."

"As things have developed to this point, the dissatisfaction of the Silver Dragon people and the trend of public opinion online can no longer be completely changed by simply brushing up your reputation or transferring you back to the main mission galaxy."

Xu Qingran started the aircraft and flew into the sky.

He pulled the handle hard and said casually, "What if we can take back the old Silver Dragon City?"

Mu Ziyu was stunned at first.

Then he turned his eyes wide, looking at Xu Qingran with an expression of seeing someone bragging: "You? You want to take the silver star back?"

This is even more outrageous than trying to snatch his position as the Silver Dragon's chief commander.

Mu Ziyu said: "Xu Qingran, the right to lead the army to carry out such a big mission is not decided by me as the commander-in-chief. You have to convince the military with your achievements and merits, but you haven't even conquered Shangnanzhou yet, how can you make the entire Tianlong Army obey you?"

Xu Qingran: "Just be honest, give me everything I want, and I can do it."

Mu Ziyu: "I am the third prince of the empire—"

Xu Qingran glanced at him with indifferent eyes.

When Mu Ziyu was stared at by him, the wounds on his body that he had almost forgotten began to ache again. He could only swallow the rest of his words and said angrily: "… This kind of thing has to be carried out in stages. At least let me see some results first!"

Xu Qingran laughed.

piece of cake.

Mu Ziyu was sent back to Xu Qingran's mansion.

The guards and servants who greeted him were shocked to see his miserable appearance and subconsciously looked at Xu Qingran beside him.

This situation is so strangely familiar.

Mu Ziyu blushed when they stared at him, but he could only grit his teeth and help Xu Qingran cover up the truth: "... When I went archery today, I was accidentally ambushed and captured. I happened to meet Colonel Xu Qingran on the way. He saved me and escorted me back."

"My injuries... have nothing to do with him!"

So frustrating.

But he couldn't beat him, and now he was offering him big promises and benefits, so he couldn't refuse.

Xu Qingran was very satisfied with Mu Ziyu's attitude. Before leaving, he said to him in an exceptionally gentle and respectful tone: "Then I won't disturb the Third Prince from resting and recuperating. If there is anything you need help with, just ask someone to notify me."

Mu Ziyu: “…”

The hairs on my head stood up instantly.

After teasing Mu Ziyu, Xu Qingran returned to the aircraft in a very good mood.

He did not set sail immediately. Instead, he sat in the driver's seat thinking about where to go next and checked his phone to see the recent hot news and topics on the Internet.

The hottest topic is Shen Tingyu's return.

The Empire had received the news before he even landed, and a bunch of media went to block him that day. He couldn't avoid the interview, so he could only respond briefly.

He didn't say where he went or what he did during the time he disappeared, he only told everyone that he took a vacation to adjust his mood.

He also used a more official statement to respond to the Golden Wing Battalion's request to stay. His words were so well-written that it was hard to tell that he had no intention of resigning. Instead, it became that the Golden Wing Battalion tried their best to keep him, and he could not let go of the safety of the people of the empire, so he returned to his post.

As expected, public opinion of him has risen to a higher level.

Some even felt that given his importance to the Golden Wing Battalion and his achievements over the past few years, he should be promoted to a higher rank, thus filling the position of the battalion general who had just retired not long ago.

Netizens were discussing the issue heatedly.

Xu Qingran quietly watched the short interview clip of Shen Tingyu in the car. Before it ended, he heard the reporter ask him, "Then I want to ask Admiral Shen, did you encounter any interesting things during this vacation? Did you succeed in calming down?"

Shen Tingyu faced the camera and pondered for a moment.

Then he smiled gently: "A lot of interesting things happened, and it also healed my mood very well. After all, it was a private trip, so I won't tell you what the specific interesting things were."

"Anyway, I'm very happy."

The last sentence was said while staring straight at the camera.

Xu Qingran was caught off guard by his smiling eyes, as if he could feel him looking at him through the camera, and his heart subconsciously skipped a beat. The sticky moments they had experienced in Shangnanzhou also flashed through his mind frame by frame like a movie.

My ears feel slightly hot.

Tsk, what a bastard.

Xu Qingran exited the interview segment with Shen Tingyu and checked the current affairs news.

In a bunch of official news, I suddenly saw the name of Mo Chengfei and the Mo Group.

[Title: The fastest land and water high-speed rail in the entire empire, crossing the entire planet in one day is no longer a dream! ]

That is to say, Mo Chengfei's company, 'Miracle', which is responsible for the production and technical operation of high-speed rail, has finally completed the global high-speed rail project of the Water Star of the Serpentine System not long ago. It uses the latest amphibious high-speed rail under their company, which is also the fastest high-speed rail in the Kaian Empire, and successfully completed the achievement of circling the planet during the test.

If you scroll down, you will see a lot of news about the Mo family’s achievements in various fields.

In addition to transportation technology, there are also housing construction, military research and development, and medical care. He even has close cooperation with the second princess of the empire, and has developed many life-saving drugs for humans and animals. Other business sectors also involve cooperation with famous companies such as food research and development and production, clothing and jewelry.

All in all, this uncle's business coverage is simply too wide.

However, this did give him new ideas and plans for his next plan.

Xu Qingran made a prompt decision and called Mo Chengfei.

After a while, the other end picked up the phone: "Xu Qingran? What do you want from me?"

Xu Qingran was not vague and asked directly: "Mr. Mo, do you want to make a lot of money?"

·

Xu Qingran was invited to Mo Chengfei's head office.

It just so happened that Mu Ziyu’s residence was on the same planet, so he arrived there quickly.

The front desk received a notice from upstairs in advance, and as soon as he came in, they immediately sent someone to take him all the way to the president's office on the top floor.

Mo Chengfei was not inside, so the beautiful and elegant lady at the front desk brought him a cup of coffee and asked him to wait for a moment.

Only then did he realize that when he called Mo Chengfei, the latter was in a meeting which had not yet ended.

"Okay, thank you." Xu Qingran nodded politely.

The receptionist walked out with a smile on her face, then turned around and lowered her voice to talk excitedly with several colleagues who were secretly waiting outside: "Fuck, Master Xu!!"

It's the long-missing master! He's back!

And how come he is so awesome that he even knows a big shot like their CEO?!

Xu Qingran took some time to look at the industries involved in Mo Chengfei on the Internet, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he became.

After waiting for about half an hour, Mo Chengfei finally came back after the meeting.

Leaning on a cane, he looked at him as if he was looking at a troublesome junior, his expression was still so serious: "What are you doing? You are a kid who knows nothing about business, how can you help me make money?"

Xu Qingran smiled and said, "Come to think of it, I have already received the special invitation award from the Silver Dragon Camp."

"I heard that the Mo family spent a lot of effort on casting my reward. Thank you very much."

Mo Chengfei snorted coldly and sat down in his large and comfortable CEO chair.

Ask him: "So, what business do you want to discuss with me?"

“It’s not really a business, it’s just a good investment opportunity.”

Xu Qingran leaned back on the sofa in a leisurely manner and said, "It's like this. I recently discovered a place with great development prospects. It has not yet been occupied by other business tycoons. Uncle Mo, would you like to consider becoming the first person to grab the pie?"

"Just consider it as a thank you for supervising your subordinates and making such a good tool for me to travel and fight."

Mo Chengfei stared at him without saying a word.

Looking at his curved eyes and slightly smiling mouth, he looked as if he had a pair of fox ears and a fox tail swaying behind him. And the particularly kind "Uncle Mo" voice reminded him everywhere that Xu Qingran might be setting a trap.

But after a brief moment of contemplation, Mo Chengfei still asked him, "Where?"

Xu Qingran's smile deepened a little, and he answered confidently: "Shangnanzhou, Taiyue Star... Tianlong system."

Mo Chengfei: “…”

His eyes were cold: "Xu Qingran, do you think I am stupid and rich?"

The Tianlong Group is indeed a place that even the bigwigs in the business world have never set foot on.

But it was not because they didn't find it, but because it was already considered a wasteland abandoned by the empire. The living conditions were also very poor, and it was a well-known slum. If a slightly famous store brand opened there, it would just be waiting to go bankrupt.

Mo Chengfei thought about it and suddenly laughed angrily: "What cake can the Tianlong system have? What cake did you draw for me?"

Xu Qingran said calmly: "When I went there, I looked at the other two star systems besides Taiyue Star."

"The mountains are high and the waters are clear. Each continent has distinct characteristics and diverse customs. Due to the influence of the environment, there are many animals and plants that can only be seen locally. In addition, the land is vast and the population is large. It can completely become a place for the production of manpower for your subsequent career development. It is also very suitable as a new base for biological and pharmaceutical research."

Even many areas occupied by groups of demons have abundant natural resources.

As long as you take the package, you will make a lot of money.

Xu Qingran said: "As far as I know, Tianlong was once the most prosperous one in the galaxy under the jurisdiction of the Silver Dragon. How bad could it be? Moreover, it has a special geographical location. Before its decline, it was once the most prosperous trading port. The reason why it fell to the current state is mainly due to the influence of the demon group."

Xu Qingran turned to look at Mo Chengfei behind the desk and said to him, "As long as this biggest problem is solved and we take back the old Silver Dragon City, there will be room for development."

Mo Chengfei remained silent.

In the early years, there were also business leaders with greater ambitions who wanted to invest in the Tianlong system and make it flourish. Putting aside the disaster of the demon group, Tianlong is indeed a very good place. Whoever can stabilize his position there first-hand can almost stabilize the reputation of the Tianlong system.

The first one to grow and become big there will be the one that is most likely to be remembered.

In particular, the right to collect the daily conveniences such as roads and public transportation was in their hands. However, due to the empire's indifference and the gradual interruption of resource transportation, the disaster situation there became increasingly serious, and those who invested money ended up in a miserable situation.

Mo Chengfei knew that Xu Qingran was currently governing Shangnanzhou. He pondered for a while and said, "You are so young, but you have such a big mouth."

"I heard that Upper South Continent is the most difficult place to manage on Taiyue Star, and the cities are divided into pieces. If you want to take over Old Silver Dragon City, you will definitely need the help of military force, so now you must at least show me that you have the ability to unite them."

Just as Xu Qingran was about to speak, the communicator suddenly rang.

He glanced at Mo Chengfei, who stretched out his hand to signal him to take the call and handle the matter first.

After the call was connected, Adjutant Mao's urgent voice came from inside and asked him: "Colonel Xu, how long will it take you to return?"

Xu Qingran smiled and said, "I don't know. Doesn't he have to wait until I have had enough fun before going back? Ah, maybe he suddenly feels tired and doesn't want to go back."

Adjutant Mao: “…”

I have never seen a colonel as arrogant and powerful as him.

Xu Qingran: "What's wrong? Haven't I arranged everything? Is there something wrong?"

Without waiting for Adjutant Mao to speak, he added: "If there is a problem, solve it yourself. Water from afar cannot put out a nearby fire. Come on, everyone."

Adjutant Mao: “…”

"Yes, there is no problem. The soldiers and guards in the camp also obeyed the mission arrangements you gave them and dared not slack off. The main thing is that you have been gone for half a month. The soldiers and guards in the South City and West City have not seen you and keep coming to ask me."

When he said this, he himself found it incredible.

Thinking back to the past, he had served several colonels, each of whom wanted the people of Shangnanzhou to listen to them, but none of them could be treated like Xu Qingran is now. The military guards of the three major areas of East and West South City, which were originally divided and very repulsive to the official senior officials of Silver Dragon, actually took the initiative to ask about the colonel's whereabouts and missed him very much.

The people in the upper half of South City asked him this morning with great concern whether Xu Qingran was mad about what happened in West City, or was extremely dissatisfied with their current level and progress, so he quit

If this is the case, I hope he can try hard to persuade people to come back.

The people of Shangnanzhou are actually worried that their colonel will run away!

It's magical.

After listening to this, Xu Qingran glanced at Mo Chengfei, smiled meaningfully, and then raised his voice to repeat: "Oh, so my dear adjutant, you mean - the military guards in South City, West City, and East City are all eager for me to return, and are worried that I will resign and quit?"

Adjutant Mao: “…Yes.”

What's up with this tone

Xu Qingran curved his eyes and asked again, "What about North City?"

Adjutant Mao replied: "Beicheng, still the same, not caring at all."

"Oh." Xu Qingran stretched out the last syllable and said slowly, "So now, only Beicheng, who I haven't personally disciplined, is still not obedient, right?"

Adjutant Mao: “…”

Is their colonel going crazy again

Mo Chengfei: “…”

This tone, which is deliberately intended to show off something, makes people feel particularly annoyed.

After Xu Qingran told Mo Chengfei all the information that needed to be conveyed, he said to Adjutant Mao, "I don't know. Just let them wait. If it doesn't work, just tell them that I don't want to do it anymore. I really feel tired recently."

Adjutant Mao: “?”

Xu Qingran: "Hang up."

Adjutant Mao, who was far away in Shangnanzhou, fell into silence for a long time after the communication ended: "..."

—So will Xu Qingran come back or not

He doesn't really want to run away, does he? No way, if he does, Shangnanzhou will definitely explode again!

Xu Qingran ended the call and looked at Mo Chengfei with a smile without saying a word.

Mo Chengfei was silent for a moment, then said to him, "You have to give me a chance to wait and see."

Xu Qingran nodded: "Don't worry, Uncle Mo has helped me so much, I will definitely not harm you. I didn't expect you to increase your efforts to reform Tianlong right away. I just want to use Shangnanzhou as the starting point for the reform and do some basic construction."

"If you are worried, I will also let the Qi family's assets under my control participate as well."

"If your investment in Shangnanzhou doesn't pay off in the later stages, I will compensate you with all the funds I have."

Mo Chengfei tapped his fingers back and forth on the crutch he was holding a few times.

Ask him: "Okay, what do you need now?"

He was prepared for Xu Qingran to talk about some grand plans for urban construction, prosperous transportation, etc.

The man on the sofa thought for a while and said to him, "First, let's connect Shangnanzhou to the Internet and then build a better telecommunications site."

"That damn internet makes it impossible for me to even broadcast my misery there."

Mo Chengfei: “…?”

Then his face darkened and he slammed the table.

Xu Qingran paused and wondered if this request was too much.

Then he heard Mo Chengfei angrily ask him: "Xu Qingran, are you looking down on me?"

"After all this time, you just want me to help you get online?!"

He was really angry, his neck was flushed red: "How much does it cost to connect to the Internet? Your request is a huge insult to me!"

He was so pissed off, he had never been asked such a small request in his life!

Xu Qingran: “…”

The evil capitalist, he is so jealous.
