Lan Mei was angry at the mayor's wife, but she found many benefits from the neighbors. Because Yaluo Town was getting depressed and the housing prices had fallen so much that she spent only a few hundred gold coins to buy a full twenty shops, half a street. When the economy was in a recession, labor was cheaper. If you shout on the street, you could immediately pull up an engineering team to start the reconstruction.

Qian Tong thought that he had won a purple gold card and would see Xiao Yichen's expression of losing his composure. As a result, he didn't take it seriously at all. He just expressed his gratitude casually, without any surprise at all. This hurt Lao Qian and was even more sure that there was indeed a master behind this little guy, otherwise how could he be so evil!

Although Xiao Yichen was not much surprised, he breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the certificate of subordinate industry issued by the Winglong Chamber of Commerce. With the other party’s purple gold card, he knew the kindness revealed by the other party. What he needed was the protection of this mountain. With a backer behind it, there was no need to worry about being plotted when developing. Becoming a Dharma God is his ultimate ideal. As for the rest, it is all his things. The meaning of existence is to serve the way to become a god. As long as he can help him advance all the way, it doesn’t matter to give up some of the benefits. Hello everyone is really good!

Brother Xiao Tie was busy learning equipment skills day and night, and Lan Mei happily directed a group of helpers to help. So, Xiao Yichen, who designed and planned all this, became idle. He took his sister to practice martial arts every day, studied recipes and various pastries, and lived a very comfortable life.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye. Han Dong and Ilena haven't seen any news yet. Is there something wrong? Or is it deliberately dragging me to play some pleasurable tricks? He wondered if he would ask someone to go to Evergreen City to inquire and buy some medicinal materials. There was not much correction liquid left in his hand. While thinking about the details, he suddenly heard the little sister's voice and a guest came to visit.

I thought it was someone sent by Han Dong, but when I saw it, it was Liu Jie, the leader of the defense force in Zhenxicheng.

"Oh! It's Brother Liu, Xike, I've been thinking about seeing you, but my father and mother are too strict, I'm so embarrassed." This is too fake and fake. Since he came back from the City Defense Force a few months ago, he has never thought of such a person coming! He can say such hypocritical words in person, and his face-shaking magical skills have made considerable progress.

On the contrary, Liu Jie had a little embarrassed look on his face and rubbed his hands unconsciously: "Hehe, speaking of it, there are days that have not passed here. You know, military spending has been declining more and more severely in recent years, and the payment for goods has been delayed for several years. I really have no shame to see Uncle Xiao."

This is the rhythm of asking for something! Xiao Yichen personally brewed tea and said with a smile: "My family, these words are out of the blue. I remember Brother Liu, you are so generous. When did you learn so harshly?" The current Xiao family is not rich, but there is no need to make a fuss with others for the sake of a bad debt that you can't get.

Liu Jie slapped his thighs with hatred: "Grandma, it's a knife to stretch your head, and a knife to shrink your head. Brother, brother is also forced by the situation. Just think it's for the sake of your brother's family and help your brother overcome this difficulty! After the Chinese New Year, my brother quit his position and come to the shop to get the iron to pay off your debts for you!"

What a mess? Xiao Yichen smiled bitterly: "Brother Liu, please make it clear. What happened? Is it a family matter or a situation in the army? How can I help you, brother?"

Liu Jie said angrily: "I know this is not authentic, but brother, you have a backer. Brother, my brother and the brothers are still counting on the little military pay to support the whole family... I know that Uncle Xiao has not been easy for many years, and he has finally made a few money... They are all from the villagers, why are those people not ashamed!"

Xiao Yichen understood a little: "Brother Liu, are you talking about someone's idea? Because we have the support of the Chamber of Commerce, we have put our idea on you? What's going on? Don't worry, make it clear from beginning to end, don't worry, there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome!"

Liu Jie sighed, "Brother, it's right for you to find the Chamber of Commerce to be your backer. But in this way, he offended the garrison. Now the person in charge is the mayor's wife and her cousin Song Wei. Both the siblings are idiots who have not done enough to make trouble. If they don't charge other chambers of commerce, they have to use their own family to make trouble. They say that your family has made so much money, but they are unwilling to pay taxes to the town, so they force me to be the evil man. You have to follow the old imperial laws and recycle the used equipment eliminated by the military. But no one knows that our Yaluo Town has long broken this line, and even the military's own military pay and food are not serious. How can you still have the face to ask the people to implement this bullshit old law?"

What's the thing? Equipment eliminated by the military? God, the protagonist's halo is indeed lucky to have six plus one! Before we were ready for the acquisition, someone came over there on his own initiative! Moreover, from what Liu Jie said, it seems that the military has a lot of inventory? Such a big leak, if you don't pick it up, how can you be right and you are calculating your own people!

Forced to suppress the excitement in his heart, Xiao Yichen said in a calm tone: "It's so shameless! I want to ask, Brother Liu, do you know how much elimination equipment there is in the hands of the city defense force in the town now?"

Liu Jie thought he was angry, no wonder, who could be calm in such a thing? This is clearly a robbery! After thinking for a while, he said, "Brother, don't worry, they just used this matter to deliberately make things difficult for us. As long as you show your attitude, you don't have to take those used equipment or something to heart. In fact, before coming, there was already a price on the other side. You just need to make three thousand feather arrows for the city defense army within one month. The market value is only about thirty gold coins. I think if Xiao Ji did it himself, he would save a portion."

Thirty gold coins arrows? This is worthwhile to spend a lot of effort? Xiao Yichen was a little surprised. It seems that Yaluo Town has been poor for too long, and even blackmailing is so stingy. I am really sad for those people. Do you have the awareness of being a bad person? After a long struggle, it makes me frustrated, but I can't even buy a box of chocolate when I open my mouth! Is this kind of thing a scholar who blackmails? What kind of climate can this kind of thing become? The wife, siblings of the town really make people feel despised.

After looking at Liu Jie's expression, he knew that Liu Jie worked hard to make the situation smoother. I was afraid that he would use his share of arrows to exchange for such an opportunity to smooth things over. Needless to say, no matter whether the Xiao family would be willing to bleed today, the share of the three thousand feather arrows of Liu Jie and his brothers would definitely be swallowed up by the shameless brother-in-law of the mayor.

After being stunned for a moment, Xiao Yichen waved his hand and chuckled: "Brother Liu is too slight on his brothers. Since you are willing to take responsibility for your brothers, how can I bear to see you and your brothers suffer unrestrained disasters? If I ask you, you don't have to worry about it. To be honest, I have found some way in the Chamber of Commerce now. I dare not say anything else. Recycling used equipment and sharing the worries of the military is a practice of the Chamber of Commerce. As long as I spend more time on the verbal, it can still be solved."

Really? Liu Jie's eyes lit up. Yes, the Xiao family has now posted it in the chamber of commerce. Wouldn't that mean that the old equipment that had been piled up in the warehouse for decades could be recycled? That's... a lot of money!

After being excited, Liu Jie couldn't help but look ashamed: "Brothers, our town has no serious equipment recycling since the mercenary union was withdrawn fifty years ago. In addition, the scrap equipment that had not been paid in time for various reasons has been accumulated, and now there are four warehouses. But brothers, don't make any trouble. We don't need to solve it. You can just help with a small part. If it's not possible, you can exchange it for thirty or fifty gold coins and let the brothers survive this New Year."

Thirty or fifty gold coins? Xiao Yichen said strangely: "What is this little money enough? If I remember correctly, Brother Liu, you have three teams of 150 people. This little money is not enough to be stuck in the teeth! Oh, I understand, no wonder you don't want money to ask for arrows. Are you planning to let your brothers go out to hunt by themselves?"

Liu Jie said depressedly: "There are no external enemies and internal troubles in our town. The three brothers actually don't have that much trouble on weekdays. You can take turns to go out to catch some prey. While training troops, you can also make up for some subsidies." He is also a city defense force, and he is also a city defense official, but the gap between the official is so big that it hurts.

It's really hard for this good man! Xiao Yichen said seriously: "Brother Liu doesn't have to make things difficult. I'll cover all the old equipment in the Siku. Tell Song Wei that if you agree, you will send all 100 gold coins to me. If it doesn't work, then whoever he likes to look for! Also, you must keep a little more eye on this matter. No matter what, don't let me spend money, but let him lose everything!"

When Liu Jie heard this, he was immediately excited: "Brother, don't worry, as long as you can really find a way, I will clean up all four libraries and not leave a single one for him! Let this bastard stop talking about this matter in the future!"

After getting the right words, Liu Jie rushed to negotiate with Song Wei. As soon as he left, Xiao Yichen was excited and made a few flips in the room. He found Lan Mei with fire and asked the engineering team to immediately organize several courtyards to make temporary warehouses.

When they arranged these things, they returned to the yard, but unexpectedly found that Han Dong and Ilena had arrived at some point. Moreover, looking at the excitement, it seemed that they had purchased a lot of things, which was definitely not something they could do. It seemed that the two adults had guessed something, haha, it was a bit interesting!
