"Oh, that's a pity."

"Yes. Speaking of which, Naige, what do you want to wear on your wedding day? A wedding dress or a cheongsam?"

"Cat ears and white stockings maid outfit."

"Okay, I'll get ready. See you next time." Muna Hana happily agreed, then hung up the phone with a snap.

A beeping sound came from the speakerphone.

Chairman Er Gou, who was holding a bowl of noodles, stood there dumbfounded.

"Holy crap!" President Er Gou grabbed her phone, but the message "Call Ended" flashing on the screen indicated that she hadn't actually conveyed her message to her sister. "You're not really going to get me a maid outfit, are you...?"

President Er Gou stared at the call-back button on his phone with a troubled expression. After thinking for a while, he finally let out a heavy snort, muttered "Who's afraid of who? Anyway, it's not me who's going to lose face," and then turned off his phone.

It seems that the relationship between President Er Gou and this older sister is quite peculiar.

After finishing a bowl of noodles.

Missouri, who was on her way to the hospital for rescue, was accompanied by the cleaning crew sent by Mu Jia to clean the stairwell.

Xiaobai only found out after asking Missouri.

There were indeed enemies around the hospital, but it seemed that the Mu family was aware that the head of the family was staying in the hospital, so there was a lot of protection for the old man, including a whole squad of ship girls belonging to the Mu family.

Under such protective measures, the enemy had no way to get close to the hospital. To prevent any unforeseen circumstances, Missouri watched the commotion around the hospital for a while, and then returned once everything was settled.

After the meal, everyone rested for a while. As Xiaobai gradually felt the awkward atmosphere between herself and President Ergou dissipate over time, President Ergou seemed to have made up his mind and called out to Xiaobai and Luo Lian.

"Little White Sister".

"Ah, I'm here!" Xiaobai replied instantly.

"Come with me, I have something I want to show you," Er Gou said with a complicated expression.

Xiao Bai's heart skipped a beat.

After leaving the house with Chairman Er Gou, the group walked onto the street, where a hint of tension still lingered.

The streets were swept clean, and there was almost no trace of the fighting that had taken place.

Guild Master Er Gou led Xiao Bai and the others along the main street, turning left and right, until they arrived at an unfamiliar street.

The streets are lined with high-rise buildings, their modern architecture reflecting the sunlight, yet the surroundings remain quiet and quiet, with very few pedestrians.

"Xiao Bai." Luo Lian tugged at Xiao Bai's hand.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"They're all ship girls," Luo Lian whispered.

Xiao Bai was taken aback and looked around.

She then realized that, at a glance, all the pedestrians on this street were girls.

If there are only a dozen or so people on a street, it can indeed be considered deserted.

However, if these dozen or so people are not real humans, but ship girls, then it would be extremely lively.

Little White opened its mouth and looked around.

"Isn't that strange?" President Er Gou turned around and looked at Xiao Bai with a smile.

"Uh, yeah." Xiaobai nodded, "Why didn't the many ship girls go to help when there was fighting in the street earlier, even though there were so many here?"

"Good question." President Er Gou nodded. "Because they, no matter what, cannot leave here."

"Ah? Why."

"Because what's here is more important than my life."

As President Er Gou spoke, he suddenly turned around and led Xiao Bai and his group toward one of the buildings.

A ship girl stopped in front of the building, raised her eyes, and quietly looked at President Er Gou who was walking in this direction.

President Er Gou waved to her, and the ship girl closed her eyes and left as if nothing had happened.

President Er Gou led Xiao Bai and the others, and pushed open the door of the dormitory building in front of them.

The gates were wide open.

The door closed.

The group walked forward.

The sound of emptiness echoed all around.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, after a door was pushed open, a loud hissing sound came from inside.

A silvery-white light shimmered inside.

Behind this hidden door was a huge processing plant.

Large swathes of machinery and conveyor belts nested together, constantly operating in front of them, with all sorts of parts loaded into carts and pushed away by workers wearing white masks.

The clanging and banging of machinery rose and fell in waves.

"Little Bai, didn't I mention before that I contracted some businesses in my hometown and made some money?"

President Er Gou led everyone into the factory. She put her hands behind her back and turned to look at Xiao Bai.

"These are the businesses in my hometown."

Amidst the hum of machinery, President Er Gou gave Xiao Bai a bright smile.

"Welcome to the eighth assembly line of the ship girl construction facility."

"A century-old brand, worthy of your trust!"

that……

If you don't want the free razor blades each month, please give them to someone who needs them before they expire, like me (good boy).

I also want to use it to draw paper figures...

qvq

May every blade of fire sent by our readers turn into Saint Quartz by the end of the month, raising a hopeful rainbow in the cold and heartless gacha pool.

Chapter 887 A Novice Chicken of Five Hundred Years

On the surface, the building that Xiaobai and his friends entered was just an inconspicuous dormitory building on an inconspicuous street in an inconspicuous small city. There are at least five-figure buildings in the world with features that far surpass this small, dilapidated building.

However, when Xiaobai and the others entered the building under the guidance of Chairman Ergou and saw the rows of constantly operating assembly lines, they realized that this was not an ordinary building at all.

This building is empty.

This is a factory housed in a high-rise building, situated in the middle of the street, blending into other buildings, and disguised so convincingly that it is protected by a large number of ship girls.

The group stood at the doorway, silently watching the rows of construction devices gradually being assembled into somewhat familiar shapes on the mechanical tracks in the distance.

Those are the Admiral's lifeblood.

Even Xiaobai and Luo Lian, both active admirals, didn't know where that thing originally came from.

All they knew was that once someone became a commander, construction devices would be automatically procured in bulk according to quotas, with free nationwide shipping, a seven-day no-questions-asked return policy, repair and compensation guarantees, and comprehensive after-sales service. They even supported curious commanders disassembling, researching, and modifying the construction devices. If the commander's skills were sufficient, they would even be assigned specialized technicians to assist in adding DIY installation packages and various personalized mods to the construction devices.

Most importantly, this thing is free.

This is a device that can create ship girls!

Is there any better welfare system in the world?

The admirals didn't know where the construction device came from, but they all unanimously believed that the people who built it must have been a bunch of little angels with white wings.

Xiao Bai looked at the production line in front of him with a complicated expression and pondered for a long time.

"Little White Sister, what are your thoughts?" Guild Master Er Gou asked.

"It's normal for things to be unexpected."

"You're a little disappointed that you couldn't see a bunch of little angels without panties dancing the elephant dance on the magic circle, aren't you?"

"It's alright." Xiaobai smiled awkwardly.

As for the construction device, it was something that Xiaobai himself brought to humanity. Five hundred years ago, he watched a group of people from a bygone era researching the construction device. Now that he's back in the modern era and sees the assembly line, Xiaobai just takes it for granted.

—There was even a little bit of pride.

Xiao Bai stared at the assembly line in front of him, hands on his hips for a moment.

President Er Gou seemed somewhat disappointed by Xiao Bai's calm demeanor. She gave an "oh," turned around, and continued leading the group into the factory.

There were quite a few workers in the factory, but apart from the empty sound of the machines turning, Xiaobai couldn't hear any human voices.

President Er Gou and his men walked past them without being questioned or stopped.

The factory workers included men and women, young and old, all wearing uniforms and large masks, and were working intently at their posts.

"President, do they know you?" Xiaobai asked President Ergou.

"I do not know."

"Won't anyone stop us from walking around like this?"

"The only people who can get into this building are trusted good people and bad people who can be eliminated with a flick of their wrist. They don't need to pay attention to either of them."

"Oh ho..." Xiaobai nodded.

President Er Gou smiled at Xiao Bai.

"This is our family business, and the people who work here are all citizens of Linsheng City. Their names all start with the character 'wood'. Since we are currently the only ones with the assembly license for ship girl construction equipment, we have a kind of monopoly on this business, and there is some profit to be made."

"Isn't the construction of the device free?"

"Ha, naive." President Er Gou snorted softly.

Xiao Bai looked at President Er Gou with curiosity.

"There's no such thing as a free lunch. This thing can be sold for a lot even as scrap metal. Its value is there, so someone has to pay for it, right? Even if the admiral doesn't pay for it now, the higher-ups have to cover it first. And since the higher-ups have covered it for you, you have to work to earn back the value of this thing. So in the end, you are still being paid, it's just that you are working for free."

"Um... what does 'working part-time' mean?"

"Do you remember the admiral's daily tasks? The resources he gave out were like handing out beggar's money."

"remember."

"That's all."

"..." For the first time, Xiaobai felt that this society was actually so real.

As they walked, President Er Gou introduced the group to Xiao Bai and the others.

"Anyway... although making money from this isn't our intention, people in this business always need to eat. With so many mouths to feed, we have to give them a reason to stay and burn themselves out in the factory for the rest of their lives, right?" Chairman Er Gou looked at Xiao Bai and smiled at her.

"Probably," Xiaobai nodded.

“The group of people downstairs just now were after the construction device.” President Er Gou glanced at Missouri and Kaga behind Xiao Bai, then slowly said to Xiao Bai, “Ship girls, who are both beautiful and capable, are very attractive to many humans, especially the wealthy. Xiao Bai, you probably understand what that means.”

"Well."

"So besides producing this stuff, we also have another task: protecting the construction equipment and its manufacturing process." Chairman Er Gou paused here, "That's all I wanted to say."

"Huh? Is that all?"

"Yes, that's all."

"Isn't there anything else?" Xiaobai looked at President Ergou with a strange expression.

Xiao Bai was a little confused. Why did President Er Gou bring her here instead of talking about the ship equipment inside her body?

President Er Gou's gaze wandered, then he nodded.

That attitude was very clear. The expression on Chairman Er Gou's face was clearly saying, "I don't know anything, and don't ask me. I'll just give you some other secrets to deal with for now."

Xiaobai wasn't very happy.

It seems that President Er Gou is going to play hard to get.

Xiao Bai isn't the type of person with a strong thirst for knowledge. She doesn't have any desire to become a know-it-all in the martial arts world. So, when she encountered most problems that didn't concern her, she often pretended not to see them in order to avoid getting upset.

However, the issue of President Er Gou's ship equipment is not something that can be simply ignored...

Xiao Bai pouted and stared intently at President Er Gou.

President Er Gou chuckled dryly as he looked around.
