Volume 1_Chapter 208 The So-called Half-Break



Su Tao couldn't help laughing: "This father and daughter are quite interesting."

Misty is loyal, and nothing is more important than the boss.

Meng Qian is a sentimental person who will always remember even the smallest favor.

There is no right or wrong.

But I guess both of them think that the other has done something wrong.

Su Tao didn't take this matter to heart.

She had already figured out how to deal with Qu Jingwen's matter.

If she has no resentment and is willing to surrender, then I will arrange for her to do a minor position in Taoyang first and observe her.

If he is full of resentment and is looking for an opportunity to take revenge, kill him once and for all.

Now we just have to wait for Ma Dapao to give her some feedback after he persuades her.

“Who’s interesting?”

Su Tao was thinking about something when Lei Xing's voice sounded beside her.

She looked him up and down. "You're quite interesting today. It's rare for you to dress so conservatively."

In the past, Lei Xing always dressed however he wanted to keep cool, wearing a vest and shorts that revealed his tan skin and dazzled everyone.

Today, I am dressed formally in a khaki work sweatshirt and pants.

Lei Xing grinned and asked, "Does it look good?"

Su Tao nodded objectively and said, "It looks good. You are tall, and wearing overalls and short boots makes your legs look longer."

Lei Xing was very satisfied with this evaluation and said happily:

"But I can only wear it here. If I leave Taoyang Gate, I will faint from the heat in a minute. By the way, do I have such a good thing to protect my land?"

Su Tao: "Yes, but it's a different price."

The price of each thousand square meters of protective shield is one million federal coins.

After building Taoyang's protective shield, she is now extremely poor. She doesn't even have ten thousand, let alone one million.

As a result, the reconstruction of the canteen, the expansion of Panliu Mountain, and the construction of the new Taochi land were all shelved.

Oh, and I have to save up the six million federal coins needed for the next upgrade.

Lei Xing was full of pride: "How much? Is 10 million federal coins enough?"

Su Tao: “.”

She said indignantly, "Why are you all so rich?"

Lei Xing thought about her question seriously:

"Maybe we spend less and earn more."

Su Tao couldn't help but ask: "Do you make so much money by taking on tasks?"

Why not wait until Taoyang has built its own army and then expand this business.

Lei Xing was not modest:

"That's just us at Leopard Path. We're quite famous in the south. The ones who hire us are all bigwigs who can afford the money and supplies. If it were an ordinary small mercenary group, they'd have trouble making ends meet. Some even earn less than the commission they earn from a single job to cover their medical expenses."

Su Tao thought, in this case, she would not be polite. When it comes to overcharging customers, she usually has to find someone she knows:

"Then I'll give you a 50% discount, five million."

Lei Xing was very touched: "You don't need to take special care of me, just give me what I deserve."

Su Tao was not so heartless as to cheat him out of ten times the price, so she quickly waved her hand:

"No, no, no, just five million. Any more would be too much."

Lei Xing was not afraid of spending money, but he was afraid that Su Tao would become distant from him, so he immediately agreed and asked Dazui to transfer the money to her that day.

When Su Tao saw that the deposit of five million yuan had returned to her account, she felt relieved but also felt a little guilty.

So he deliberately put the construction of the Baotu land at the top of the schedule, and planned to start moving bricks as soon as the design drawings from Mr. Mei came down.

But before that, there was still a small job to do, which was to build houses for Nie Sibo, Xu Qi and Alice.

Nie Sibo and Xu Qi are both willing to move their families to Taoyang.

Su Tao arranged three-bedroom, two-living-room and one-bedroom, one-living-room apartments for them according to their family size.

Then, different amounts of salary can be deducted based on the monthly rent.

It's easy to arrange for both of their families, but Alice...

Su Tao was a little troubled by this little girl. She couldn't communicate with her at all. It was even harder to communicate with her than with Fang Zhi before.

When she was brought to Taoyang, she ran around everywhere and even took a chess piece from Mr. Gu and rolled it around to play with it, which made the old man, who was already old, chase her with his cane and roar at her.

Upon seeing this, Mr. Mei immediately put away his pair and slipped away as if nothing had happened.

Grandma Cen saw that she was pretty and felt sorry for her mental illness, so she took her home and gave her a meal.

Unexpectedly, this meal would bring disaster. Alice suddenly started twitching, rolling and screaming while holding the spoon. Grandma Cen was so scared that she took two steps back and bumped into the chair, breaking her tailbone.

Fortunately, Dr. Zhong was there and the operation was completed without causing Grandma Cen too much pain.

But this incident also caused Taoyang's tenants to resist Alice.

After much thought, Su Tao brought her back to Taochi and asked Wu Zhen to plant a big banyan tree in Taochi and build a small wooden house on the banyan tree with all the necessary facilities.

Alice really liked it. She was stunned when she saw it, and climbed up with a humming sound the next second.

Xu Qi smiled and suggested, "Boss, you can give it a try. Give her permission to use her supernatural powers. Something interesting should happen."

After hearing what he said, Su Tao became a little curious and gave Alice permission separately.

In less than ten minutes, Su Tao opened her mouth wide and saw many little white rabbits jumping around the banyan tree. Some of the rabbits were even wearing glasses and hats, and some were carrying pocket watches.

She couldn't help but reach out to touch the little rabbit, but as soon as her hand touched it, it disappeared.

What shocked her even more was that Alice's head, which was standing under the tree, suddenly began to swell as if it were inflated.

Just when Su Tao thought she was going to explode and was about to shout, Alice suddenly rose up like a hot air balloon.

Then it landed steadily on the roof of the cabin, and its head slowly shrank as if it were deflated.

Su Tao was stunned.

Xu Qi exclaimed, "Every time I watch it, I feel like I'm dreaming, or that I've stumbled into an absurd fairy tale world."

Su Tao closed her mouth and nodded in agreement.

After making arrangements for Alice, Su Tao quickly spent 2.4 million federal coins to build protective shields for the leased lands of Panliu Mountain, Taochi and Baotu.

This way all the lands under her jurisdiction were protected.

There is nothing to be afraid of, such as bone wings and crawling monsters.

Su Tao also completely relaxed, finally no longer having to worry about unknown dangers.

There is probably no place safer now than the area she manages.

But just as she lifted her guard, Zhong Gaoyi was met with someone's raging anger:

"It's the 25th, Zhong Gaoyi! Did you really not take my words to heart?"

"The Floating District has just fallen. It won't be long before the zombies attack the East District. I only have 3,000 men, Zhong Gaoyi! 3,000! Are you going to watch them all die?"

"And the brothers I brought back from the old station, the oldest of them is only 22 years old, the youngest is only 12! There's no place for them in Dongyang. In order to find a home for them, I had to rob and occupy them. This is bound to involve bloodshed. Can you bear to see them seriously injured and disabled for life?"

Zhong Gaoyi's fingertips turned white, but he didn't say a word.
