Chapter 113: There is always a banquet in the world
"Long live the Creator~~~Long live the boss~~~Long live the 996 Blessings~~~ Follow me and recite the true name of God. Everything you get now is the gift of the Creator~~~
Have you seen it? Have you felt it? God’s eyes are watching you~! Confused people~~ throw yourself into the arms of the Lord~~enjoy the happy life at your fingertips~~~
As long as you work hard and give willingly here, you will be favored by God~~Let us praise the Lord~~~Let’s have dinner~~!”
Liu Xiao watched from a distance as Abu, who already had quite a bit of a charlatan appearance on the streets of Abandoned Fort, was spreading the gospel of God to the new employees, and couldn't help but curl up his lips.
"This Abu has learned well. If I train him for a while, I won't have to work so hard every time."
Looking away from the balcony, Liu Xiao turned around and accepted Rosa's service and changed into clean clothes. Then he walked out of his new bedroom and went out to check the progress of the construction project of the abandoned castle.
It has been three days since the Riot Chamber of Commerce settled in the abandoned castle. During these three days, no one from the Black Rock Chamber of Commerce came here through the magic circle. However, Arthur received an order from a pigeon.
The order came directly from the Royal Capital of Orange, ordering him to return to the Royal Capital to train a new reserve army.
It seems that Orange's active troops are already somewhat stretched, and the king cannot organize the reserves for training. It should be that during this period, their northern war situation has been advancing rapidly, which has left the rear defense empty.
After receiving this order, although Arthur was a little reluctant to give up, he was still a man of Orange after all and must obey the king's instructions.
"Arthur, my master~~ don't worry, we have plenty of opportunities to meet~! The door of the Riot Chamber of Commerce will always be open to you~! Of course, if you want to fall into the arms of the Creator of Hope, I will welcome you at any time~~"
Liu Xiao opened his arms and gave Arthur a bear hug, patting him on the back.
Arthur smiled bitterly and said: "Boss, please stop joking with me. The consequences of changing your faith are too serious... Apart from that, I am very grateful to the boss for taking care of me during this time, and I have learned a lot."
After Arthur finished speaking, he solemnly knelt down on one knee and bowed to Liu Xiaoxing. He had only done this highest courtesy to his parents and the king before, but now he had another target.
"Hurry up, my Master Arthur. After all, I'm still your student~~ I should be the one doing the salute for you."
Arthur waved his hands hurriedly: "No, no, no! Boss, you must not do that! What I have learned from you is much more than what I have paid for! This is not only comparable to these fighting skills... In short, everything about you
Take care! I look forward to our next reunion!”
"Okay, we are all grown men, don't be so whiny~ go ahead!"
Liu Xiao watched Arthur's handsome back riding the horse gradually disappear on the horizon, and then he exhaled and said to himself: "There is no such thing as a banquet in the world, and no one will accompany you to the end of your life..."
.Let’s each take care of ourselves.”
After seeing Arthur off, Liu Xiao patrolled around the abandoned fort again.
The riots in the abandoned fort have been basically eliminated, and the only thing that can still pose a threat to them are the evil beasts wandering outside.
Without the sealing barrier of the Cursed Land, these evil beasts have been entrenched in the surrounding mountains, jungles, streams, and even farmhouses, causing a considerable impact.
Liu Xiao secretly thought, now that he has moved into the abandoned fort, he will inevitably have to use this as the core to carry out business in the nearest villages and towns. If all those places are destroyed by evil beasts, who will he do business with in the future? He can't keep holding on to Lao Bai.
A wise person will not put all his eggs in one basket. This is common sense.
Thinking of this, Liu Xiao found dozens of war horses in the abandoned fort and distributed them to his core orc warriors.
Liu Xiao divided the soldiers into three groups and conducted guerrilla patrols in three directions: north, east and west. They killed evil beasts on the spot when they encountered them! While eliminating threats, they could also communicate with the residents of nearby villages and towns.
Build good relationships, promote Riot Chamber of Commerce and the gospel of Hope the Creator, and achieve many goals in one fell swoop~!
On the other hand, Liu Xiao drew a city defense blueprint and asked the dwarves to recruit the residents of the city and the mercenaries and adventure teams stranded here, let them play their role and act as laborers, and provide a certain amount of remuneration.
Basically, the walls around the city should be thickened and raised as soon as possible.
In addition, after driving away the evil beasts outside the city, Liu Xiao took Bangbang and Crook to draw out several experimental fields in the open space between the city wall and the cursed land, and
They planted their potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers and other vegetables at once.
Of course, Liu Xiao also set aside several large tracts of land for Diana to cultivate Chinese medicinal materials.
Although the distance between this place and the Cursed Land is not very far, the place is several times larger~! It is also more convenient to operate.
It's just that it's a bit far from the river. Digging a diversion canal and building a water tanker can only provide fresh water to their former chamber of commerce camp. But now Abandoned Fort is a small city with a large population. Diversion canals and water tankers alone can't satisfy the demand here.
Water problem.
Fortunately, Liu Xiao discovered that the water used for the abandoned fort was spring water left on a mountain in the north. He planned to do two experiments, one was to store the mountain spring water through diversion, and the other was to dig a river from a distant river.
Canal, let it circle around the ruined fort, turning stagnant water into living water.
Moreover, once the canal is dug, his most powerful employee, the evil beast Mandela, can reach the abandoned fort via the canal. In this way, even if he is not around, he does not need to worry about the defense of the abandoned fort.
On this day, Liu Xiao was directing everyone to work in full swing at the construction site, when the dog-headed military advisor suddenly ran over with buck teeth.
"Boss, boss~~ Someone from the Orange Kingdom in the north is coming! Their scouts arrived first and said that the prince's large army will arrive soon~~ Let us be prepared to welcome it~~~"
"What? Prince of Orange? I've never heard of it...Why isn't it Lao Bai?"
Liu Xiao was still a little surprised, why did the Orange Kingdom suddenly change its people? Why did Lao Bai go?
After all, Brandy had become good friends with him and knew the prices of the goods well. This sudden change of people was not a decision that a Meiji leader should make.
However, Liu Xiao didn't think too much and ordered: "Since there is a prince across the way, it's not an exaggeration for us to greet him~~ After all, we are all business alliance partners. Come, follow me back to meet our prince friend."
Liu Xiao wiped his sweat and summoned Rosa, Chief Moses, Abu and several other middle-level officials.
Since the person coming from the opposite side is a prince, the reception team on our side cannot let go.
And after such a long period of his words and deeds, veteran employees such as Abu, Kota, Bangbang, Johnson, and Crook are now able to handle reception matters in a decent manner, no matter who they face, they can handle it with ease.
Communicate, neither humble nor arrogant.
Maybe they will be more humble only when facing Liu Xiao. This is also the idea he has always instilled in his employees. Except for your boss, no one else has the right to order you! Even the imperial power is included!
When Liu Xiao and the backbone of the Chamber of Commerce were waiting at the city gate, the so-called prince was nowhere to be seen.
Liu Xiao glanced at the scout who came to report the news in advance, and asked: "Brother, when will your prince arrive? Didn't he say he would arrive soon? I still have a lot of things to do."
It was obviously the first time for the scout to see Liu Xiao. He was a little surprised that the president of the Human Chamber of Commerce was so rude! He was the scout of the prince, and common people without titles like him had to salute and call him sir when they saw him!
"Huh~ How noble is your Royal Highness the Prince? You just waited here for a while and you complained a lot. Didn't you know that the Prince also has the important task of supervising the southern border this time? You are not the only place that needs to inspect the ruined castle!"
Liu Xiao raised his eyebrows when he heard the scout's words and said "hmm".
Brandy and the people he brought had been very polite to him before, but this little scout still dared to put on airs in front of him? Is he itchy?
