Swallowed Star: Start with Family Revitalization

Chapter 19 Theory of Lucky Husband
Central China base city.

Zheng family villa.

The courtyard with a jujube tree is plain and unpretentious, and its style is quite out of tune with the surrounding technological buildings. At this moment, sitting next to the stone table under the jujube tree is an old man in his sixties, and opposite the old man is Zheng Guorui, the current head of the Zheng family.

The chessboard on the stone table has reached its final moment.

"General."

The sixty-year-old man smiled and said, "Guorui, you lost."

Zheng Guorui shook his head and said, "After studying for so long, I still can't get too old."

"You, it's not that you can't beat me, it's that you are too distracted."

The sixty-year-old man hit the nail on the head with one sentence.

Zheng Guorui was helpless. "I can't help it. There are too many things to take care of. I can't be as leisurely as Mr. Yu. Recently, a materials company emerged in Base City and actually won a 10 billion order from the HR Alliance. It is said that there is a mid-level war god behind it."

The sixty-year-old man exclaimed, "Middle-level God of War? Which one is it?"

"I don't know."

"We are investigating, but it is not likely that they are from Central China Base City. I know all the War Gods, and none of them have had any dealings with this materials company. Mr. Yu, please keep an eye out for me at the War God Palace."

"Row."

Finished playing chess.

Zheng Guorui ordered the butler to call the captain of the Fire Fox Squad. He looked at Zhou Ji and said, "Don't bother the Storm Squad with your brother's affairs. If you insist on seeking justice for your brother, it's best to do it in your personal name and don't involve my Zheng family."

Zhou Ji frowned.

Zheng Guorui reminded, "A member who quit the Gale Squad has made friends with the middle-level God of War. You'd better take care of yourself."

In recent months, he knew that Zhou Ji was using the power of the Zheng family to secretly gather information about the Storm Squad. He didn't care about it at first, but it was different now. If something really happened, the Zheng family would inevitably be involved.

Zhou Ji's expression changed slightly, "I know."

Leave the Zheng family.

He punched the car door and gritted his teeth, "Damn it, this Tornado Squad is just lucky, but wait, sooner or later I will find an opportunity."

……

The box on the third floor of HR Alliance Mall.

Shen Ping and the members of the Gale Squad gathered together again. Having shared the same life and death experience in the wilderness, they had a very good relationship with each other. Even if a member quit or encountered trouble, the other members would spare no effort to help.

Captain Qin Shan said with a smile: "Old Shen has made a name for himself in the past few years since he retired. He has such a big cooperation with the underground alliance, and the future development is promising. We may need your protection in the future."

Mu Yang couldn't help but teased: "Captain, I am under Brother Shen's protection now. If it weren't for Brother Shen's guidance, it wouldn't be so easy for me to break through the sword skills."

Shen Ping waved his hand, "Muyang, don't keep talking. If you don't work hard, what's the point of just relying on advice? But this time the company was able to cooperate with the underground alliance, and it was also a bit lucky. We'll see how things go in the future. If we can continue to cooperate, we'll have to ask for your help."

The captain understood what Shen Ping meant, smiled and raised the bottle of wine in his hand, "Come on, drink."

After three rounds of drinking.

Shen Ping leaned close to Qin Shan's ear and whispered, "Captain, will there be any trouble following the Fire Fox Squad incident? If so, I'll think of a way."

Qin Shan hurriedly said, "Old Shen, don't. It's your luck that you can meet the God of War. It's not worth it to owe him a favor. As for the Firefox team, the worst that can happen is that we will just stay in hiding. I don't believe that Zhou Ji can do anything to the team."

"You run the company well. Except for Mu Yang, the potential of our team has reached its limit. Whether we can improve in the future depends on you."

Shen Ping nodded and continued drinking with the team members until late at night.

A few people left the mall.

After the new year.

At the beginning of March in 2051, Shen Ping, who had stayed at home for more than half a year, set out for the wilderness area again. After such a long period of fermentation, the news of his cooperation with the HR Alliance Mall almost spread throughout the base city. When he arrived at the military supply base, many officers greeted him one after another. Whether they were familiar or unfamiliar, they were all very enthusiastic.

Officer Huang from the Thunderbolt Martial Arts School half-jokingly said, "Old Shen, your company is so profitable, why don't you enjoy your life in the base city? Why did you come to the wilderness area again?"

Shen Ping smiled and said, "I am a warrior. I can't stay idle at home for a while. If I continue to stay here, I'm afraid my body will get moldy. It's better here. Once I enter the wilderness area, it's like entering my home."

Officer Huang was speechless.

We chatted briefly for a few more words.

Shen Ping walked towards the assigned residence. At night, he set out for a distant county town. This time in the wilderness area, in addition to hunting high-level beast general-level monsters, he also wanted to take the opportunity to expose his own strength.

Two days later.

We hurried along and arrived at a county town.

In most cases, there are more Beast General-level monsters in county towns that are far away from military supply bases, especially in urban areas, where you can often encounter Beast General-level monsters hunting alone.

He was not afraid of the beast general surrounded by the beast soldiers, and he rushed straight up when he saw the target.

Chi Chi.

Like a wolf among sheep, he faced beast soldiers and even beast generals as easily as chopping melons and vegetables. After his swordsmanship was perfected, even without using the Nine-Layer Thunder Sword, it was effortless for him to kill beast generals with pure swordsmanship.

Just three to five days.

Shen Ping hunted more than ten beast general-level monsters, including two medium-level beast generals. He then rested in the county town for a few days before returning to the military supply base to find Officer Huang to sell monster materials.

Saw the mid-level beast general grade material.

Officer Huang was shocked. "Old Shen, did you kill him?"

Shen Ping grinned and said, "Who else could it be if not me? At the beginning of spring, my physical fitness broke through to the level of a mid-level general. With the help of the Nine-Layer Thunder Blade, I barely killed a mid-level beast general. Once I become more skilled, hunting will be much easier."

Officer Huang suddenly realized what was happening, looked at Shen Ping enviously and said, "Last time I heard from Mu Yang of the Kuangfeng Squadron that you had broken through to the third level of the Nine-Layer Thunder Blade. I didn't expect it to be true. Now your combat power should have reached that of a high-level general."

"Correct."

Shen Ping laughed and said modestly: "Although my combat power is that of a high-level general, I am not yet able to hunt down high-level beast generals. After a while, when I am familiar with the power of my body's enhancement, I will be evaluated as a medium-level general."

"No more talking, let's hurry up and take a night's rest. I'll practice more while my hands are hot."

Transaction completed.

Watching Shen Ping leaving.

Officer Huang couldn't help but sigh: "This Shen Ping is like a dead tree coming back to life. Not only did he meet the God of War, but his swordsmanship has also made continuous breakthroughs. It is said that this is because he got married and started a family. Could it be that there is such a saying as a woman who brings good luck to her husband?!"

After a while.

The news that Shen Ping's combat power had reached that of a high-level general spread, and many warriors were envious and jealous. More than half of them believed that the saying that she brought good luck to her husband was credible. Of course, most rational warriors guessed that it was because of the middle-level war god behind Shen Ping.

[You hunted down a medium-level beast general alone. Your family is becoming more and more famous in the Central China Base City, and is taking a small step towards prosperity.]
