It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

It takes two to tango. This seemed to be a tacit expression of everyone's feelings - the trip to the Hualan Empire was not easy after all, and was completely different from the expected honeymoon.

Especially Su Lin and Gu Yi, who were arranged to stay behind, were even more resentful. I don’t know how many good things you have done following Xu Shi in this year. Isn’t it time for him to spend more time with us?

Not to mention that everyone knows that returning to Night Crime City is not a time to relax and rest, but a more intensive deployment of troops, so we must cherish this brief comfort.

Try your best to turn yogurt into rice soup!

Sometimes it’s painful and happy... No, it’s refreshing and happy.

The voyage passed in a flash.

When the ship docked, everyone felt as if they were in another world.

In fact, I haven't been away for too long. Being away for a year or two will not dilute the hometown where I have lived for more than 20 years. The reason I have this feeling is that the changes here are indeed not small.

The port that was built before was a bit crude due to time constraints, but with the efforts of Tang Shuang and others, it has now become quite large and even magnificent.

Where is the desolate feeling that existed before on the coast of Night Sin City?

Including the shipyard, Su Lin has now separated a special department from the "Snake Ring". It can be seen that she is very attentive to this... Otherwise, sea transportation will definitely not be as convenient and smooth as it is now.

"Before I received your message and set sail, I also tried to expand the shipping business specifically for civilian use."

When getting off the ship, Director Su and Xu Shi walked side by side and reported, "But now it's just a prototype, and we can only take them around Night City... Master, do you think it's feasible?"

"Of course it's possible."

Xu Shi agreed with her idea very much. Although the other party had not told him about this before, it was also one of the things he wanted to do.

Ever since he persuaded Pan Cheng to take over Silver Pine Island as the overseas base of Night Sin City, the work of sending talents has already begun. At that time, he was wondering whether he could develop along this line of thought and develop civil aviation business.

After all, always following cargo ships is not a long-term solution. Talent and trade exchanges are just the beginning. If an alliance network is really to be established among various city-states, exchanges between residents seem to be indispensable.

It's the so-called "going abroad" - due to the general environment in this world, flying is impossible, and sea travel is the only way.

This will not only allow for better cultural integration between different regions, but will also open up an industry that has never appeared in the world.

Tourism.

Yes, in the past everyone operated on their own, and no one knew that there were other city-states besides their own, so naturally this industry would not exist.

But now there is a precedent. Even if we don’t do it deliberately, such things will happen sooner or later. This is the general trend.

However, this matter still requires time. Firstly, not everyone can withstand the "rust fog" on the sea. Secondly, the corresponding supporting facilities have not yet been established. If we start rashly, it will not be a surprise but a shock.

Moreover, matters of humanity are ultimately not as important as matters of "natural law", so we still need to clearly distinguish between priorities.

But Su Lin’s idea is not wrong, or else she is undoubtedly a good wife.

Xu Shi couldn't help but hug her and kiss her several times.

Director Su accepted it gladly and even kissed her back - that's how they were. Before the relationship broke out, if Xu Shi teased Su Lin, the other party would probably be terrified, frightened and angry.

But now...the two of them just want to stick together and never be separated.

Others were not surprised by this. It was just a kiss in public. It was not like they had never done that before... Even Xu Ying was the same. She was so skilled in covering her eyes with her fingers.

Good kids shouldn’t watch this kind of thing, but it’s okay if I watch it secretly!

The only one who sighed was Qin Yiyan. She was conservative in her thinking, so how could she accept such an open-minded move?

What kind of group are you guys in? Your Highness the Saint is only in the second grade of junior high school! .jpg

"This matter still needs to be considered in the long term."

After talking nonsense, Xu Shi also added, "Civil aviation and even tourism are big things, and we must not rush into it."

"But now that we've done it, we might as well take advantage of it."

"How to use it?"

Su Lin knew that her method of "going around in a circle" was definitely not enough, and she couldn't help but be curious about it.

"That's easy. Get a few boats, make them as luxurious as possible, arrange for food, drink and entertainment, and then just anchor them not far from the shore."

Xu Shi smiled, "Then go and say hello to "Imaginary Number". Qi Maoyang and his father love to have fun, and they are also good at publicity. They know what to do without me telling them."

Yes.

If you don’t want to make money from the poor, you must first make money from the rich.

Although there is definitely no one richer than Xu Shi in the Night City of Crime, it is undeniable that there are still many wealthy men and women in the Night City - Boss Xu, who used to be the leader of a wealthy family, is well aware of this.

Then let's arrange a cruise party. Young masters and young ladies love to play so much, this relatively novel way of playing will naturally attract their attention - things have already been done, how can we not think of ways to make back our investment?

He himself also hoped to see something like this, to enrich the entertainment... Besides, who doesn't like the Hai Tian Grand Banquet? Playing and joking on a serious voyage is not as fun as this special party.

Oh ho ho.

"Like something you could come up with."

Xie Qingyan echoed the words, and it was hard to tell whether it was approval or sarcasm.

“I was the first one on board when the ribbon was cut.”

Xu Shi was overjoyed, and the daily bickering with Xie Xiaogou couldn't stop.

When they set foot on the ground of Night Sin City again, the ceremony to welcome them back was not grand.

That was because no one wanted anyone to welcome them at all - the most important people in the entire Night Sin City were probably all here, so it didn't matter whether there was a grand ceremony or not.

They didn't even tell us the exact time of arrival.

But someone still came to pick it up.

"Director Xu! Here, here!"

Yu Xingchuan, who was temporarily serving as the director of the Inspection Bureau and the governor, rushed over in two steps, followed by many important figures from various financial groups.

Yes, that's the truth.

Those in higher positions may not say anything, but you cannot not come, even if you have to set up a tent and sleep at the harbor every day. This is such a rare opportunity to show your loyalty.

Yu Xingchuan was a man who was used to handling things. He must have inquired from many sources and got the news in advance so he could stake out here.

"Governor Yu is very thoughtful."

Seeing her servile look, Xu Shi couldn't help but laugh.

"As the Director of the Inspection Bureau, Governor Tang is away on business, so I should take over her duties."

Yu Xingchuan laughed happily and silently filled in his joke, "Besides, everyone must be tired from the journey, I dare not forget such an important event."

Hearing her say this, the genuine governor Tang Shuang's eyes twitched unconsciously.

To be honest, she was the one who brought Yu Xingchuan into the Inspection Bureau. She had always been aware of his versatile and good-tempered character, and she had never liked his behavior.

But you have to admit that this person is very capable, otherwise you would not have let her be your adjutant in the first place.

Love and hate it.

After a few pleasantries, everyone dispersed temporarily.

Xie Qingyan took Ye Shanshan and went back to "Prism" first. She was not worried about the elderly at home, but as a director and the person who made the highest decisions, she was inevitably a little worried after being away for such a long time.

Necessary review and discussion still need to be done.

Tang Shuang returned to the Governor's Mansion, and Lin Yue accompanied her - the two of them were now firmly in a relationship of "you are the boss, I am the boss", and they were indispensable in maintaining the long-term stability of Night Sin City.

But in their words, there is no longer any black or white now.

Xia Ke'an took Xia Wuyou with him to arrange accommodation for the two sisters Feng and Ling, as well as Xu Ying and Qin Yiyan.

Shen Qin also followed.

Suddenly, only Su Lin and Gu Yi, the original trio, were left by Xu Shi's side.

"Go home first?"

Su Lin asked tentatively.

"Okay."

Xu Shi nodded, but before leaving, he suddenly thought of something and looked at Yu Xingchuan, "Do you need a ride, Director Yu?"

"...Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Xu."

Of course Yu Xingchuan couldn't have walked here, but she knew Xu Shi wanted to say something to her, so she wouldn't be so stupid as to not disturb the warm time of this family of three.

That’s right, a family of three.

Anyway, she really looks like them - Xu Shi and Su Lin are both very calm people, but Gu Yi is impatient, and with the age difference there, it really looks like a young father and mother with a rebellious daughter.

Especially since Miss Black Rabbit is relatively young, they look even more alike now.

Xu Shi specially reserved the back seat for her.

"I asked you to come back halfway through our trip to the Hualan Empire. You won't blame me, right?"

Xu Shi looked out the window and asked casually.

"how come?"

The adjutant girl laughed and said, "I am just a brick of Mr. Xu. I will move wherever I am needed."

"Do you really think so?"

Xu Shi's tone became more serious. "We have been away for a while. It must have been difficult to run Night Sin City."

"I haven't had time to take a good look at how things are going here. Why don't you take a detour and explain it to me?"

"my pleasure."

Although he didn't know what the other party meant, Yu Xingchuan naturally would not refuse such a request.

Su Lin and Gu Yi did have a rough guess, but they tacitly agreed not to disturb him. They just turned on the automatic driving and started driving around the city according to the route Xu Shi had planned.

After a year, the Night Sin City had indeed undergone considerable changes - the port just now was only a small part, and the changes in the Sin City surprised Xu Shi even more.

Although the construction here had already begun before I left, it was just in its infancy at that time. Now it has been fully developed and has been completely transformed.

The dilapidated shanties were replaced by high-rise buildings, and the messy streets became clean and tidy.

Looking from Districts 1 to 12, although it is still not on par with Night City, it is much better than before.

“…Employment issues have also improved significantly.”

Yu Xingchuan explained carefully, and it was obvious that he had put in a lot of effort. "Many people in Sin City are willing to work in the upgraded homes, and the treatment is much better than before."

"Many people from Night City have filled the vacant positions, which has alleviated the pressure on Night City to a certain extent."

"The first area is reserved for Miss Lin Yue to work in. Now she has two leaders, Song Ziyou from the "White Iron" and Ding Jun from the "Long Knife Party" to assist her..."

"Ding Jun went back again?"

Xu Shi frowned, he still vividly remembered the scene where the other party cried and shouted that he wanted to go to Night City to make a living.

"Yes."

Yu Xingchuan smiled and said, "He only worked in Yecheng for more than half a year, and in the end he lost all his money... Then he went back, and Miss Lin Yue accepted him back, and even let him continue to manage District 7."

Xu Shi laughed when he heard this.

It's not like he hasn't thought about this kind of thing, but he still finds it quite amusing.

It seems that Ding Jun's determination is not that great. From this perspective, it seems that he is just pursuing the white moonlight. For him, entering Night City may be more like an obsession.

In comparison, Sin City was certainly a better choice. Not only was he more familiar with the place, but Sin City, which was in its infancy, was also a blue ocean.

It is right to stay in Sin City.

Lin Yue didn't tell him in detail who she was using now, and Xu Shi didn't care.

After all, there is no need to worry about the loyalty of the Queen of Sin City. This is the good thing about "Evil Entropy".

The prosperity along the way also made Xu Shi realize why Su Lin came up with the idea of ​​​​the civil aviation industry.

Things are different now. Even the residents of Sin City are no longer decadent like before, or seek survival in the cracks.

The improvement of the quality of life will not only drive economic growth, but also increase the demand for entertainment and humanities. Those cheap projects that were not conducive to safe development in the past will only disappear slowly over time, such as the trade in stimulants, or the sex doll industry that has disappeared.

But in the final analysis, all this is also his credit.

Xu Shi thought happily.

Of course, it cannot be denied that Su Lin and others have made great efforts during the time when I was away.

The same goes for Yu Xingchuan. After I sent her back, especially during the time when Su Lin and the others came to the Hualan Empire, she was basically responsible for all matters, big and small.
