In Stele City, Qian Er slowly opened his eyes.
He recalled what had just happened, and a sense of unease he had never felt before arose in his heart.
This was a feeling he greatly disliked.
There must be something he hadn't considered, but what could it be...?
Qian Er thought about it again and again in his heart. Many times, he felt like he was only a little bit away from the answer, but soon it would sink back into the sea without a trace.
He was sure that something must have gone wrong!
After a period of hard thinking, he finally gave up on this question for the time being.
While he was deep in thought, he didn't even notice that a golden light slipped away from his body, precisely from the back of his head...
Since he really couldn't figure it out, Qian Er simply stopped thinking about it.
Although his physique was now incomparably strong, the mental workload of recent times had been too great. He could feel that he needed to rest.
He was really too tired.
Moreover, thinking about it over and over without finding an answer was really too frustrating. These things involved his secrets, and he couldn't tell anyone except for his summoned beasts.
Qian Er decided that he would relax for the next few days and then make the next step of his plan.
Lying on the soft sofa, he felt a long-lost sense of ease.
The Bloodstained Saint sat on the side, still playing games on his phone. Strangely enough, the Nightmare Mirage Flower didn't like playing games, but it seemed to really like watching the Bloodstained Saint play games.
Now, the Nightmare Mirage Flower was standing on the Bloodstained Saint's shoulder, watching intently, occasionally providing some tactics.
"Run away, run away!"
"Attack that squishy, it'll be easier to team fight if we take one out first!"
Qian Er stood up and walked outside. When the Nightmare Mirage Flower saw that Qian Er was going out, it quickly climbed onto his head.
"Where are we going? Where are we going? I want to go too!"
"Going to see the New City. I heard it's been completed. I spent so much money on it, I have to go take a look."
As he spoke, a somewhat distorted expression appeared on his face.
Although the government had invested in the construction of the New City, it still cost him a considerable portion of his assets.
That was a city!
If someone hadn't been keeping a close eye on that guy named Dai Ke, he would have suspected how much he had embezzled from the project. He was really curious, was the New City made of gold?
Now, it was no longer necessary to ride a summoned beast to get to the New City. Because of Dai Ke, oh no, it was Qian Er who had created a teleportation gate, hiring space-type summoned beasts. As long as you stood on the magic circle, you could go to the New City, which was very convenient.
When he arrived at the New City, the stationed officer walked over and gave Qian Er a standard military salute: "Greetings, Great King!"
Qian Er nodded. After the New City was completed, Dai Ke returned to Stele City, but he was only there temporarily. He was currently spending his days indulging in pleasure with Ao Tianshun in Stele City.
Although these people were capable, they were also quite wild when they played. However, Qian Er was too lazy to interfere with their personal lives, as long as they could make money for him.
"Brother Yu's brother, there's no need to be so polite when there's no one around. We're all family."
Qian Er patted the officer's shoulder and asked: "Did that kid Dai Ke embezzle any of my ink?"
The officer smiled: "That guy is very slippery. He embezzled a lot from the public funds, but he didn't touch a single cent of the Great King's. I guess he wouldn't dare."
"Originally, the public and the Great King were each supposed to contribute 50%, and the Great King did pay 50%, but the public must have paid at least 60%."
Qian Er couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "He dared to embezzle a whole 10% from such a big project? He's really got guts."
The officer also laughed: "That's right, that kid is very clever. He can always think of ways to make the public have to give, but he is indeed capable. I feel that if it were someone else, they might not have been able to build such a city."
After asking about the situation of the New City, Qian Er personally walked around the city. The scale of the New City was not large, but it was not small either. After all, it was also the Fourth Ring Road.
Needless to say, the innermost part would definitely be used for residences and prisons for people with special identities. The residential and commercial areas outside were also clearly defined.
The officer also told Qian Er some of the official movements he had overheard from Dai Ke. Qian Er nodded. Seeing that his money had indeed yielded such great results, he was actually satisfied.
Before leaving, he looked at the officer and said: "Thank you for your hard work during this time. I have already sent someone to deliver what I should give you to your side."
The officer said sternly: "Great King, I am not helping you for these things."
Qian Er waved his hand: "I know you're not doing it for these things, but these are just what I'm giving you as a friend. Make good use of these resources and strive to break through as soon as possible."
"In addition, Dai Ke will definitely come back in the future. Continue to monitor him. Contact me immediately if there are any movements. You understand."
After saying these words, Qian Er returned to Stele City. What he sent to that officer was a treatment that was countless times better than the official one.
On the first day after returning from the New City, Qian Er called out all of his summoned beasts to play games together and deepen their relationship.
The Shadow Fiend had now completely adapted to the days under Qian Er's command. Qian Er would often give it a large pile of resources.
"Eat, my child."
This couldn't help but make the Shadow Fiend sigh. The life of a rich second generation was so wonderful, especially with several very reliable older brothers.
Qian Er played with them for a whole day. At dusk, he pushed open the door of the bedroom and then lay directly on the sofa.
The Bloodstained Saint also lay down beside him, strangely not taking out his phone.
The Frost Radiance Bone Dragon tried very hard to walk from the hall into the bedroom, but unfortunately, although the space in the bedroom was large, the door was not high.
Looking at the silly old second trying to lower its head and squeeze in, the Reincarnation Flag laughed out loud.
In the end, it was Qian Er who pulled it over through the summoned beast space.
The setting sun outside the window shone in, and Qian Er and the Bloodstained Saint sat side by side on the sofa, even their movements were the same. Because the Frost Radiance Bone Dragon was too large, it could only lie on the ground, facing the Nightmare Mirage Flower on the floor.
The Reincarnation Flag lay beside Qian Er's hand, and the Myriad Transformation Demon turned into the appearance of the Shadow Fiend. The two of them stared at each other in the gap behind the sofa where the sunlight couldn't reach.
"Meow ~"
The cat maid also walked in, holding a small teapot in her hand.
Qian Er couldn't remember how long it had been since he had been so relaxed.
The next day, Qian Er originally planned to go and see the recent results of Ao Tianshun and the others. Although they spent their days indulging in pleasure, Qian Er knew that these people were definitely not idle.
Stele City had already passed their busiest time. Now they were waiting for the right time to harvest the wheat. Putting the money in the hands of these people was far better than putting it in his own hands. In their hands, money could generate money.
Just as he walked out of the Royal Mansion, Qian Er fell.
