Su Xin's acting is average. She has prepared her lines, but her expression is not good enough. It is subtle and shows a guilty conscience. She is not as good as Xingzi.
Fortunately, she didn't need to worry about this when communicating over the phone. She could just lower her voice and slow down her speaking speed to get away with it.
The communication process was rather bumpy. Commander Su Xiao reduced the compensation content step by step according to the list given by Tiancheng. The other party kept silent every now and then, probably asking for instructions from his superiors.
The final goal was successfully achieved, and the bottom line was similar to what the secretary ship predicted.
Not only did it greatly supplement the port area's Rubik's Cube inventory, but it also obtained a promise to allow expansion and agreed to sell the surrounding land to Su Xin at the original price.
For ordinary people, this promise is really useless. After all, buying land is expensive, and the failure rate of large-scale construction is high, so the commander basically does not have much money left.
But Su Xin was different. Other people had no money in their pockets, but she had her crotch full.
Since we occupied the back mountain to build the camp dormitory, most of the vacant land at home has been used.
Although there are no buildings to be built for the time being, who can say for sure what will happen in the future? What if [Siren] and [Ember] come to the farmhouse in a group?
Therefore, it is imperative to transfer money to buy the land. No matter whether you can use it or not, you have to get it first.
The port area is some distance away from the commercial street, so there is still room for expansion. However, we are afraid that if the expansion is too large, it will directly become neighbors with the shops, and people will come and go, which will affect the order of the port area.
But these issues can be left for consideration later when the land is needed. Now...
"Let the Purifiers change their appearance first. It would be bad if they were recognized."
Tiancheng smiled, folded and tore the list into pieces, and threw it into the trash can. "Well, but I have to trouble you to tell me again."
Trouble? What's the trouble?
Su Xin patted her chest and walked out of the door in a heroic manner, followed by two maids, Dido and Sheffield, like a playboy strolling through the market.
The secretary ship watched the three people leave and shook his head helplessly. He felt that his commander seemed to be getting more and more arrogant.
Fortunately, the cat's tail cannot stay permanently, otherwise it would probably be sticking up and shaking like a Malay sword.
Dandy?
Although this word was originally used to refer to children from wealthy families, it gradually became a derogatory term because most of them had bad personalities.
Su Xin felt that she was not at that level yet. Although she was rich, she had never done anything like robbing women. Instead, she was the one that the "women" wanted to take away and eat.
It is true that she is a bit scumbag, and her self-positioning is very accurate, but who isn't a bit scumbag these days?
Look at this royal maid who doesn't like to wear pants. I don't know how many words she said to hurt her along the way. They were all words that made no sense at first, but hurt you when you thought about them carefully.
Is this disdainful?
Looking at Dido, who had promised not to have any wild thoughts, she kept a distance of half a meter from me. She blushed when I got a little closer to her. When I asked her what was wrong, she stammered and said nothing.
It would be bad enough if they were hiding something from their owner, but the key point was that when they walked a little faster or slower and the distance between them changed, the other party would give them a pitiful look, as if they were being bullied.
Is this disdainful?
Nowadays, everyone is to blame, but there are indeed people who fall for it.
You said that leader without Doragon, who asks everyone's name in the group one by one, is it really interesting? Not necessarily?
But doesn't the Royal battlecruiser who has several hundred degrees of myopia and doesn't like to wear glasses like this? Just now Su Xin saw the two of them sitting on the bench and whispering.
Aunt Hood, who was serious and even a little old-fashioned, after teaching the Royal Ark a lesson for circling the destroyer all day, turned into an ignorant girl who had just fallen in love and was shy even to hold hands.
Su Xin passed by from a distance and felt a pain in her teeth just by taking a glance at him.
There was also Helena, who stood outside the court holding a bottle of water and waited for Cleveland to come over during halftime and handed it to him, saying that she didn't have the strength to open the bottle cap.
While he was saying with a look of disgust that his girlfriend was sweaty and smelly, he moved over and gently wiped her forehead with a towel.
Su Xin discovered that although autumn was approaching, the port area was still in spring when all things were sprouting, and this would even be the case for a long time in the future.
Very novel and fun.
On her way to the old dormitory to look for Big Eyes Meng and Octopus Girl, she couldn't help but sigh: "This atmosphere is so good, I feel happy just looking at it."
Sheffield sneered, "Have you ever heard of 'A Pear Tree Overshadows a Begonia'?" (Note 1)
Su Xin was stunned, quite surprised, "Sister Sheffield, you still know Dong Huang's poem? But what does it mean to use it here... Do you want to sing praises to spring? This sentence is not very appropriate."
"...It is indeed a hymn to spring." Sheffield looked at his host's small body, "I am just afraid that [the spring tide will come with rain in the evening]." (Note 2)
"Uh... [A boat drifts alone at a deserted ferry]? Why do I feel like something is a little weird...?"
Sheffield glanced at the aircraft carrier that was holding its chest not far away, "...What about [People who go out to see flowers]?"
Su Xin looked very serious. She looked at Dido who looked confused, then pulled the maid over and whispered to her, "Although you have memorized so many ancient poems, you don't use them in the right places... Can I teach you some other day?"
"Haha... you should learn it yourself first."
Su Xin:?

Chapter 974 Commander's Mission (Fog
"Lord Commander~"
"Hmm? Ah, excuse me, I'm so busy, let's talk next time. Bye, bye!"
"Next time? Next time, Dafeng will have to get up at five in the morning and dress up, and wait for you on the road relying on luck..."
Listen, listen to what this is saying.
How did she make the story of squatting so refreshing and touching?
Su Xin really couldn't figure it out, so she took back her foot. It was not for any other reason, but she was simply curious about the input-output ratio of "squatting".
"...You get up at five, so what time do you go out?"
"Five-thirty, right...? I can't remember clearly, I just walked here in a daze, my heart and eyes are full of you, the commander, there's no room for anything else~"
"I guess you don't know that I only pass by here at nine o'clock when I go to work."
The aircraft carrier refused to accept the suggestion and retorted with her chest puffed out, "No, I know everything about you. You will leave the gate of Donghuang at eight o'clock, leave the restaurant at half past eight, and arrive at the command room before nine o'clock!"
Su Xin had a disappointed expression on her face. "You remembered it wrong. I left the yard at 8:20 these days. It was almost 9 o'clock after breakfast. I will be a few minutes late."
"No way! Dafeng has been waiting outside the yard since six in the morning! You clearly walked out of the gate at four minutes and seven seconds past eight today. I definitely won't remember it wrong!"
Commander Su said with a long "Oh", "Didn't you say you walked out here at 5:30? Why did you run out of the yard at 6 o'clock this morning?"
Dafeng was startled and wanted to get away with it by acting coquettishly and softly, but Su Xin knew her character and immediately stepped back with her arms folded, leaving the two maids to take the lead.
"I knew you were lying. Come on, take him down!"
Dido was too shy to step forward. Sheffield turned around and looked at his master with the eyes of a middle school student with a second-year syndrome. His expression was indescribable.
Dafeng took the initiative to take over the role. She knelt on the ground and whimpered, crying miserably, "My Lord, you are innocent."
Su Xin was actually in high spirits because of Tiancheng's planning. She pretended to be wronged to the operator on the phone and got the reward. Now she was as excited as if she had drunk fake wine.
But he was still conscious after all. When he saw the other person sitting on the ground, he came to his senses immediately, and the embarrassment floated up in his head.
"Uh... Never mind. I really have something to do right now. Why don't you get up first? Can we talk about it later?"
Dafeng squeezed out two tears, lowered her eyes, and raised her hand weakly, but someone pulled her up from the ground.
She secretly thought he was rude, but she couldn't help but feel a little moved. She staggered two steps, then half-stepped her left foot over her right foot, and floated into the arms of the man in front of her like a willow catkin.
"Oh my~ I'm about to fall down-- Ugh! Fortunately, the Commander is bigger-- Hmm? Why is it so big?"
The aircraft carrier frowned and looked up, meeting Sheffield's cold-faced gaze, and quickly jumped back.
Without bothering to question, she wiped her face, took out the perfume and sprayed it on her body, thus covering up the maid's rose scent.
Dafeng sniffed and looked at Su Xin, who was standing opposite with her arms crossed and watching, with a very aggrieved expression.
"Why don't you pick me up?"
"...I'm afraid I can't catch it."
"How could that be? I'm very light... With your strength, you can easily turn me over and over, and put me in any position you like—"
"Ahem!"
Dafeng pursed her lips, feeling very aggrieved, and made way like a little wife, "Then, then you go and do your work, Dafeng will wait for you to come back..."
Su Xin almost didn't react when the guy who usually jumped around suddenly became so sensible. But since the other party said so, when else could she escape?
"Then I'll go play with Sister Dafeng next time. Bye!"
"Well, bye..."
Su Xin took a step forward hesitantly. Seeing no one to stop her, she suppressed her surprise and left with the maid. "That's not right... Why did you let me go so easily today... Have you changed your ways?"
Dafeng watched the three people go away, then pulled out a nearly meter-long straight file from his chest and walked towards the port gate with a sullen face.
"Commander must have been bewitched by that cow!"
"That sneaky cat... I can't drag it on any longer. Either her breasts will die or mine will!"
"Why is she suddenly willing to let us go?"
"You should prepare your workers' compensation payment in advance."
"Ah? What kind of work-related injury? Did anyone of them fall?"
Dido plucked up the courage to interrupt, "I, I think Sheffield meant... to ask you to be prepared to take Miss Dafeng to see a psychiatrist..."
Sheffield glanced at his colleague and thought to himself, you are too naive.
Su Xin felt something was wrong. Da Feng's strange thinking had been going on for a long time.
If the problem could really be solved by seeing a psychiatrist, there wouldn't be so many commanders posting on the forum asking for various tonics.
After all, all the sad thoughts come from idleness.
If she assigned him more tasks to keep him busy, he would not have the energy to think about these miscellaneous things. He would probably fall asleep as soon as he got home.
Su Xin continued to think along the lines of this.
Who is the busiest person in the family?
Secretary ship
Then let Taiho be the secretary ship to help handle official business?
As soon as the thought came to his mind, the young commander shuddered and quickly shook his head to get rid of this dirty trick.
The house where she usually works has an attached lounge with beds and bedding. If she were to replace Dafeng so that they can be alone, it's hard to say who will suffer in the end.
Susu does what she wants, and does nothing when she has nothing to do.
Hiss…Turtle, that’s too scary.
"You might as well ask her to do something impossible as her master."
The little commander's eyes lit up, and he tilted his head to look at Sheffield, who was hiding his true intentions. "That's a good idea, sister, can you elaborate on it?"
The scumbag maid, under Dido's admiring gaze, gave advice to her young master, "You can let her take the [Tide Calling] exam and graduate with full marks."
"Well... I think she would be very knowledgeable about human physiology, but that knowledge has been taught a long time ago. As for you, Sister Sheffield, you need to relearn Chinese."
"I don't think there was anything wrong with my use of those poems."
Su Xin was in great distress. How could she explain to her maid that "a tree of pear blossoms" did not actually refer to pear blossoms, and that the poem was not about praising the spring scenery?
Dido hesitated for a moment and asked softly, "But Master...in the Royal Maid's work manual...there is no clause about learning Donghuang poetry...is it newly added?"
The maid shook her head, "No, I learned it because I was interested in it."
Dido breathed a sigh of relief. She was most afraid of studying. If she couldn't learn, she would always feel that she was unworthy of her master. Even if she learned well, she would be so nervous that she couldn't speak when reciting in front of her master.
Anyway, she just doesn't have the courage to face her master.
Unable to speak directly, he could only look at his master secretly and show love quietly.
The timid maid was depressed and self-pitying, but the clever little commander had already thought of a good way to deal with Dafeng.
She took out her phone and called the aircraft carrier she had just parted with. Her tone was gentle and her voice was soft, as if she was acting coquettishly with her good sister. She communicated for a few minutes before hanging up.
"Hehe... Solved!"
