Chapter 104: Chapter 104: Wuli and Shuli Promotion
"So you understand why I put on pause for the soldier's now? I need some time to plan this out before you all keep sending more people into this city." Yuqi added.
"Okay, I'll go tell them about it. They will understand." Xiaoyun left the office and called the two.
After explaining it to Yezi and Yiming, both of them were understanding enough to accept it.
But the two also raised another concern with Yuqi's suggestion.
"Who's going to guard the other city? Someone has to be responsible for that and be able to command the military there. It has to be someone that we can trust." Yiming asked.
"Can you two not go? I trust you two." Xiaoyun replied.
"No, we still have to teach the current soldiers and officers." Yiming replied back.
"Huayi is still the head of agriculture department, I can't leave her here and go there myself... s-she's pregnant now. You understand me right?" Yezi took over
Yiming's phone and replied back.
"Fine fine, I'll think of someone else to be the commander in that city." Xiaoyun hung up the phone and went back inside Yuqi's office.
"What's wrong? You looked very anxious and worried." Nami noticed Xiaoyun's face as Yuqi was too busy working.
"I just got a phone call with Yiming and Yezi... they were fine putting a pause for the rescue team for now. But they asked me who was going to guard that new base if we do set it up." Xiaoyun replied back.
"Oh snap, I didn't think of that." Yuqi stopped her work and gave her suggestion.
"Why don't you just ask Yezi or Yiming to guard the other city?"
"I asked the two already. Yiming still need to continue training the soldiers and the higher up soldiers to be officers. Yezi's wife Huayi is pregnant, so he doesn't want to separate with her. I can't break them up like this..."
Yuqi and Xiaoyun both struggle to come up with an answer until Nami suddenly suggested a person as she dig through the records.
"How about Wuli? She's trustworthy and she's a... captain already. She definitely have the quality to lead."
"Wuli? Isn't that mom's old friend?" Yuqi remember back to when she was still a kid.
"Hm, good idea... but I don't think she want to be separate it with Shuli." Xiaoyun remember the two being super close.
"We can move Shuli to build a school there in the other city... or maybe even let her be the city administrator there. I'm sure she's built for it, managing a school is barely any difference to managing a city.
Then they will both will be together." Nami patched the hole that Xiaoyun added.
"Fine, but we still need to ask the two if they want to move first. Let me call the two to come up here." Xiaoyun pulled out his phone and called.
After ten minute, the two arrived at the office.
"What do you call us here for?" Wuli and Shuli both stood in the office wondering.
"So we are planning to build a city at an difference place. You might of noticed how the town, or city has been overcrowding for quite a while now." Xiaoyun replied.
"What does that have to do with us?" Shuli asked first.
"Well, I need someone I can trust to be the commander at that city. I trust Wuli to be the commander of the city.
Then I need someone to be the administrator to the town... I trust Shuli be it and manage the new town." Xiaoyun explained.
"You sure? Giving both of us civilian and military position? You really trust us that much?" Wuli looked a little concern by Xiaoyun's suggestion rather than refusing it outright.
"I trust both of you. Wuli you were the one that saved my marriage with Leyan... without you, I wouldn't be here...Shuli I can tell you have a caring heart, just from the work you had done with the children.
Both of you are genuine people. I believe you guys won't cause more bloodshed." Xiaoyun finished explaining.
"I-I guess its fine if you trust us that much... a-and Shuli is fine with it." Wuli's face blushed a little from Xiaoyun's compliment.
"I-I'm fine with it as well. B-But I never managed a town before." Shuli raised her concern.
"Don't worry, I will teach you in the office here. We still have time as the town is not even built yet. I still need to send the construction crew to build it first." Yuqi reassured the two.
"It's super easy. Even I can do it after just being in this office in a single month." Nami chimed in.
The two folded and accepted their positions.
"Anyway, you guys want to come over for dinner? Leyan said she kind of miss you two." Xiaoyun suddenly brought it up before the two left.
"Sure, we will be there." The two accepted the invitation.
After working for the whole day trying to find a good spot on the map to build the new city, they decided on a nearby area down the main road that only take five minute to drive to.
It had a perfect forest that can hide the constructions and is even farther from Guangzhou than the current city Xiaoyun is in.
---
As the three arrived back home with Lily, it was Wuli and Shuli who opened the door.
"Oh you guys are already here." Xiaoyun looked at the two in surprised as the four walked inside the house.
"Yeah, it's a weekend for the kids so I got nothing to do... Wuli's job got put on hold as the rescue team no longer have to go out." Shuli answered.
"Oh right." Xiaoyun realized it now.
"Anyway we can do eat now, Leyan had already finish cooking." Wuli spoke up as everyone went to the kitchen.
"Hey Xiaoyun, how's work today?" Yueyue asked.
"Not much happening beside needing to plan out a new town, where's Leyan?" Xiaoyun looked around.
"She's upstairs in the restroom right now. Oh here she is." Yueyue replied as Leyan entered back to the kitchen and sat down.
"Hey honey, you looking for me?" Leyan looked at Xiaoyun.
"Nothing, I was just wondering where you went." Xiaoyun replied.
"Oh I just was checking the babies if they are okay. Anyway, let's eat."
Everyone started eating as Yuqi and Nami mentions about the works today and the two guest's promotion.
"Really? Wuli and Shuli is leaving this city?" Leyan looked a little shock by their mentions.
"Yeah, they are going to be the head of the new town we are building." Yuqi replied back.
"I'm sorry to ask this, but wouldn't other people feel a little jealous of their rapid promotion? The officer worker and soldiers wouldn't be happy with that right?" Yueyue chimed in the conversation.
Shuli got extremely nervous as soon as Yueyue mention it.
"They wouldn't dare to complain. They know their place." Yuqi was quick to reassure Shuli.
"How about the soldiers?" Yueyue and Wuli both turned to Xiaoyun.
"As I said, Wuli earned it. The soldiers knows it. Her captain rank isn't gotten for free. It's the highest rank she can earn right now.
Jixi and Gantian would be fine with it too since they know they will never get that position since they would be too close to Yiming." Xiaoyun replied back.
"Wouldn't other people think Miss Shuli and Wuli got their position on the bed due to them both being women?" Lily suddenly brought it up.
Both Wuli and Shuli's face blushes.
"W-Why a-are you two blushing? I-I didn't do anything anything to them." Xiaoyun panic as the four them look at Xiaoyun with suspicion.
"Come on, just don't sit there in silent. I——"
"Its okay honey, we know you didn't do anything." Leyan suddenly smirked.
The other three suddenly changed their face expression as well as if they knew something.
"Hm?" Xiaoyun looked a little confused how the four changed their expression so fast but didn't ask why.
"Um, thanks for the meal, w-we are going home now." Shuli and Wuli both got up and left the house.
"What's wrong honey? You look very nervous." Leyan walked closer to Xiaoyun.
"I'm not nervous at all." Xiaoyun quickly changed back to normal.
"Babe, I feel like you had been getting tired a lot." Yuqi suddenly got up and walked closer.
"Yeah... Xiaoyun you know we are both fully healed now right?" Yueyue got up and walked to the other side.
"W-Wait, Lily is still here." Xiaoyun desperately looked for a escape.
"Lily, can you go back to your room?" Nami asked.
"Of course, good lucky brother Xiaoyun." Lily left the kitchen.
"C-Can we at least go back to the room first?" Xiaoyun nervously asked as he got up from his chair.
"Nope, we need you to prove your innocent right now." Leyan got up and pushed Xiaoyun down to his chair.
"W-What do you mean by that?" Xiaoyun nervously asked.
