(One update, busy today, so just one update.)_2 Then, he looked down at the little fox lying in his arms, with delicate skin and a soft touch.
One arm was wrapped around him, with a fluffy tail resting on his waist.
Just as he was about to lift the tail…
Andre Willow also woke up from her dream, “Master, you're awake!”
“You sleep a bit more, it's still early, no need to rise this soon,” Wu Heng hugged her arm and gently touched her hair.
Andre Willow snuggled into his arms coquettishly, “When has there ever been a maid who stays in bed after her master wakes up!”
“Our little fox has special privileges, sleep a bit longer, wait until breakfast is ready before going out,” Wu Heng patted her little bottom and got out of bed from one side.
“Master is the best!” Andre Willow lay on the bed, her tail swaying left and right.
After a quick wash up and dressing, Wu Heng said, “I'm going upstairs, no need to call me for breakfast.”
“Okay, Master.”
Wu Heng left Andre Willow's room and returned to his own study.
First, he let the Ghost go out for a check-up.
After confirming that there were no issues on Gold and Silver Island, he opened the boundary door and went straight to Zombie World.
Zombie World.
Stepping out of the boundary door, he stood at the window and looked outside.
As dawn broke, patrolling Skeletons could be seen on the road.
After thinking for a bit, Wu Heng picked up the walkie-talkie and pressed the talk button, “Qi Hancai, can you hear me?”
The response was quick, “I'm here, please wait, I'll be right there.”
He sat in the room and waited briefly.
There came the sound of knocking.
“Come in!”
The door opened, and Qi Hancai came in with a little owl, saying, “Half an hour ago, we received news from Bai Qing, the Skeleton Army has launched an attack on Gaohe City, and they are currently engaged in battle.”
Indeed, it was as he had guessed.
The Skeletons he had deployed were already attacking.
The command Wu Heng gave to the team of Skeletons was to clean up the Zombies in the city area, certainly not waiting until broad daylight to start the offense.
“Any problems?” Wu Heng asked.
“So far, no issues, everything is proceeding smoothly,” Qi Hancai replied.
“What about Li Yahong?”
Qi Hancai said, “Sister Yahong is expected to arrive at Iron City the day after tomorrow; she should still be on the road now.”
Wu Heng nodded, instructing, “Make sure the railway remains clear, arrange for routine checks, and keep up with logistics.”
“Understood!”
After they finished talking and confirmed there were no dangers.
Wu Heng felt reassured in his heart.
Qi Hancai then said, “Spring is almost here, we need to get started on the fallow land from before, in the next few days we plan to arrange for people to go back to the several fields we set up previously.”
“Sure, you guys handle these matters yourself, our base doesn't have many people, pay attention to the diversity of crops,” Wu Heng instructed.
“Mhm,” Qi Hancai stroked the owl beside him and then said, “Zhao Yanqiu arrived yesterday, should we assign her a position right away?”
“Hold off on the position for now, we'll see what she's thinking later,” Wu Heng said.
Qi Hancai raised an eyebrow, wondering why they need to consider her thoughts.
But he just pondered it internally and agreed with a nod, “Okay.”
Wu Heng stood up and said, “Let's go to the conference room, and then have her come there to see me.”
The two of them left the room together and went downstairs to the conference room.
Qi Hancai picked up the walkie-talkie to notify Zhao Yanqiu.
Soon after, there was a knock at the conference room door.
Zhao Yanqiu entered.
“King, Vice Leader Qi!” Zhao Yanqiu saluted.
Wu Heng looked towards Qi Hancai, “You go ahead with your tasks, we'll go check out the factory area together later.”
“Okay!” Qi Hancai nodded and left through the door.
Wu Heng turned back to Zhao Yanqiu, motioned for her to sit, and then released Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao lay half in the air, somewhat lazy, but immediately exclaimed in surprise upon seeing Zhao Yanqiu, “Yay, Mummy!”
“Xiao Xiao.”
Zhao Yanqiu opened her arms, and Xiao Xiao floated over for a virtual hug between mother and spirit daughter.
Wu Heng allowed the mother and daughter to chat for a while before asking, “Zhao Yanqiu, Xiao Xiao misses you quite often, I can transfer you over here, how does that sound?”
Zhao Yanqiu glanced at Xiao Xiao and, without much hesitation, said, “Thank you, King, I am willing to come over.”
“Do you have anything else to bring over from there?”
“Some luggage, and some photos of me and Xiao Xiao,” Zhao Yanqiu considered and replied.
Wu Heng nodded, “You go back in the next couple of days, bring everything over, arrange things on the old factory side of Xinfu City and come straight here.”
“Okay.”
“You and Xiao Xiao have a chat here, and when you leave tonight, come back with me,” Wu Heng stood up once more.
Zhao Yanqiu once again bowed, “Thank you, King.”
“Around here, just call me Leader,” he replied.
“Yes, Leader.”
Wu Heng opened the door and walked out of the room, followed by the sounds of the mother and daughter expressing concern for each other.
After exiting the meeting room, Qi Hancai also came out of the opposite room.
The two of them went to the workshop where bullets were produced.
They checked on some equipment.
Then they collected the bullets that had been produced.
In the afternoon, Wu Heng returned to Gold and Silver Island.
He released the two ghosts again, floating in mid-air.
Seeing her mother, Xiao Xiao was clearly in a good mood, floating around and even humming a cartoon song.
Glenda floated to the desk on her own and began editing.
Wu Heng turned to Xiao Xiao and said, “Xiao Xiao, I'm planning to change your mother's profession, what do you think suits her?”
“Profession?!” Xiao Xiao floated around in the air twice, then said, “I think Imilo is pretty impressive.”
“Imilo's strength lies in his level, anyone who reaches that height in any profession is impressive.”
“Oh, uncle is right, is there anything I can choose from?” Xiao Xiao continued to ask.
Wu Heng frowned and thought for a moment, then said, “For combat professions, there's warrior, Ranger, thief, Fist Master, for civilian jobs, there's Investigator, Coroner, and Bard.”
“Then uncle, can you help me think about what to choose?” Xiao Xiao still couldn't figure it out.
“Your mother doesn't seem quite suited for combat; a civilian job would fit better. The level can be raised without fighting. Either Investigator or Bard would be fine.”
“Then I think Bard sounds good.”
“I'll buy a Profession Change Scroll tomorrow, and then ask for your mother's opinion.”
“Okay!” Xiao Xiao nodded in agreement.
After discussing the Profession Change Scroll with Xiao Xiao,
Wu Heng took out the Association's envelope and letter paper, along with the Special Item [Passionate Goose Feather Pen] from the desk drawer.
He pondered for a moment.
Then he began to write on the letter paper.
The letter was addressed to Slyther.
It started with expressing his own longing and then quickly got to the matter at hand.
The newly developed area in Gold and Silver Island had begun to sell.
And in this commercial street, Wu Heng had also kept two street-front shops.
One was planned to be a shop, the other was for Slyther to establish Money Cat.
The building was already complete; it just lacked her presence.
After finishing the letter,
Wu Heng held it in his palm, thinking of Slyther's name and visualizing her appearance. The next second, the letter disappeared from sight.
It was directly sent out.
Wu Heng looked at the time; it was almost dusk.
He said goodbye to the two ghosts, opened the door, and went downstairs.
He dined with the maids.
In Black Stone Town,
“Aunt, Aunt….” the door was suddenly pushed open, and Yuli peeked in, “Aunt, are you feeling better? Shall I bring in dinner?”
Slyther sat up from the bed, rubbing her somewhat aching forehead.
“I won't come down; just bring the dinner here.”
“Oh, okay!” Yuli nodded and ran out.
Slyther straightened her disheveled hair and happened to touch something by the bedside.
She looked down and saw a blank envelope by her pillow.
Tap tap tap!
Footsteps sounded from outside the door.
Slyther quickly hid the letter inside her nightgown, and right after that, Yuli entered with dinner and set it on the table before sitting down.
“I can eat by myself, you go down and eat too, and then rest early.”
“Ah? I'll take care of you first, then I'll go down.”
“No need, I'm fine, you go ahead!”
Yuli looked at her aunt somewhat puzzled but still got up and left, “Then I'll come back to take care of you after I've eaten.”
When the door closed,
Slyther took out the envelope from her bosom, opened it, and checked the contents of the letter.
