Kate bowed down in gratitude as the two walked out with clothes that Xiaoyun had made on the spot.

"Don\'t worry about it. Your husband is my husband\'s sworn brother... And I should be the one calling you Elder Sister Kate."

"No, no, no, Yezi is older than Xiaoyun. I should be calling you Elder sister Huayi."

"Just call each other by name. Stop with all these formalities." Leyan interrupted.

The two didn\'t argue any further as they both respected Leyan\'s seniority as the head.

"Ahem, I\'m going to head over to Yuqi to work on something. Kate, you can take a break."

Xiaoyun didn\'t give her any chance to respond as he headed inside the car himself and drove off.

"Hey Kate, be honest with me, okay? How many times did you guys do it on the trip?"

Leyan asked directly, despite Huayi still sitting right next to them and the kids all playing nearby or in their arms. Stay connected through M V L

"W-We only did it once." Kate quietly replied as she sat down next to Leyan, her face blushing red.

"Only once? He really holds back... Ahem, how did the battle on the bridge go?"

Meanwhile, all the way over to the administrative building in Luoping.

As Xiaoyun arrived inside the office again, he felt less staring as he walked past all the office workers.

After knocking on the door, Xiaoyun waited.

"Come in."

Entering inside, Yuqi was once again sitting in the office with a young woman standing behind her.

"Who\'s this person?" Xiaoyun curiously asked as the young woman left the office.

"My secretary... You better not have any ideas towards her, or else I\'m going to chop your balls off."

"Of course not. I\'m not some horny dog. I was just wondering who she was, and that was it."

As Xiaoyun sat down to his seat, Yuqi immediately took out a stack of paper and threw it to his desk.

"Deal with your mess. I don\'t want to deal with this expense."

Looking down, the paper was a report of the army\'s expedition cost to the Humen Bridge.

"Raise the corporate and business taxes to pay for it. It shouldn\'t be that hard, is it?"

Xiaoyun curiously asked as he handed a simple draft solution along with the paper report.

"Okay then. I\'m going to raise it under your name."

As Yuqi accepted the paper and started making an official draft, Xiaoyun quickly realized she already knew what he was going to do.

"Why don\'t you just do this yourself? You never really care about public opinion, right?"

"Who said I don\'t care about public opinion? I\'m not going to be a scapegoat taking all the blame.

Besides, who do you think this corporate tax is going to target... You dummy."

Seeing her face blush, Xiaoyun was a little confused until his brain finally absorbed the information.

"Yuqi, are you scared of Anna and Kate?" Xiaoyun asked as he moved a little closer, examining the change on her face.

"Shut up."

Yuqi\'s staring at her computer only further confirmed Xiaoyun\'s idea of her actually considering Kate and Anna.

"Hehe, Yuqi is being thoughtful of her sisters. I never knew you were so kind and grown up instead of fighting internally——"

"Can you stop talking for a second? I\'m trying to work."

Yuqi interrupted as she turned her laptop slightly to the side, facing away from Xiaoyun directed.

"Okay, okay."

As Xiaoyun shifted his attention back to the stack of paper on his desk, Yuqi fixed her hair a little as she murmured something to herself.

"Dummy..."

After working for almost the entirety of the afternoon, Xiaoyun had finally finished most of the work that Yuqi had handed.

Most of them were just decisions he needed to make for the currency change that was already being implemented.

It was mostly ceremonial, from giving it a name to choosing to roll it out across the cities rather than just Luoping.

He was more than happy to make that decision, not needing to worry about actual decision-making that would impact his reputation severely.

Near the end, however, he noticed an important data report that made him much happier than before.

"How did food production quadruple? Were all those programs really that effective?" Xiaoyun curiously asked.

"Hell no. Those things are going to take at least half a year to take effect. It only quadruples because of fishing."

"Fishing? Is it really that big?"

"Yeah... It\'s like the perfect season with almost no barrier to entry. And it\'s a lot easier to learn than farming."

As Xiaoyun nodded, he suddenly realized something.

"Wait, have the fish mutated or been infected?"

"Nope... Why would you ask that?"

"Because of all the corpses and zombie blood that flow downstream... Shit——"

"Don\'t panic. It should be fined. What you\'re worrying probably doesn\'t matter at all."

Seeing Yuqi\'s face shift from panic to suddenly calm, Xiaoyun got a little confused.

"What do you mean don\'t panic? The fishes are going to be infected if they eat those zombie corpses."

"It\'s floating into the Pacific Ocean. Even if you dumped millions of zombie corpses into it, that\'s like barely anything.

Not to mention, all of the fish meat has been cooked and heavily salted before being packaged into cans."

Yuqi\'s answer calmed Xiaoyun down a little. However, he was still a little concerned.

"If you\'re that worried, I\'ll send a few people to test it... Besides, have you seen Tianci\'s report?"

"Her report?" Xiayoun looked back at her in confusion.

"Yeah, I even let her post it in the newspaper. Here, read it yourself."

As Xiaoyun accepted the newspaper and began reading, he was a little stunned by Tianci\'s research findings.

The headline was literally \'human can eat zombie meat,\' sounding like the most far-fetched headline ever.

However, as he read further down, he was more and more shocked by the damning evidence.

"What! This doesn\'t make sense." Xiaoyun murmured as he questioned Yuqi\'s intent with the publication.

"Just keep reading it."

As Xiaoyun continued reading past the headline, he finally understood why Yuqi wasn\'t so worried earlier.

The report\'s evidence showed the zombie virus dying after the zombie itself had died for less than an hour.

More importantly, the virus itself had changed the zombie\'s DNA completely, technically making it a different animal species.

Near the end of the report, a hypothetical process of removing the virus through chemical treatment, allowing it to be eaten hypothetically.

"Has they tried this?" Xiaoyun concernly asked.

"I told them not to reveal that part to the news report. But yes, they have tried that process.

But before you think this is a free food hack, it takes a lot of resources just to get a single gram——"

"Why the hell would I think it\'s a food hack? I would never let that through." Xiaoyun interrupted, not wanting to miscommunicate with Yuqi.

"Good. It looks like we both have the same idea... You wouldn\'t believe how much it took me to convince her team to stop this plan."

As the two reached a common consensus, Xiaoyun suddenly became a bit confused about how this research came about.

"Wait, why are they researching in this direction? I thought they were searching for a cure."

"It\'s a finding along the way. You can\'t expect them to only find the cure without laying the groundwork."

Yuqi\'s point made Xiaoyun nod in agreement as he handed the newspaper back to her.

"Okah, is this all the work that I have?" Xiaoyun curiously asked as his desk was now empty.

"Hell no. There are still hundreds of problems that you have to solve. I only gave you the light one for today.

Anyway, it\'s time to get off work and go back home... I\'m so tired." Yuqi yawned as she stretched out her arms.

When the two arrived at Huayi\'s house, all of Xiaoyun\'s wives and children were at the table.

"I\'m Sorry to interrupt your home like this." Xiaoyun apologized as Huayi and her child sat across from her at the dining table.

"Don\'t worry about it. The mansion feels a little empty anyway. It feels a lot more lively having you guys here."

As several maids carried out food from the kitchen, Xiaoyun couldn\'t help but feel the convenience.

"Leyan, we should really just hire some maids at home, don\'t you think?"

"No!"

All of Xiaoyun\'s wives rejected his proposal at the same time, causing him to start eating in silence.

"Mom, what\'s a maid?" Yongyi curiously asked as Leyan helped put his porridge onto the table.

"A person who works at someone\'s house... Xiaoyun, I can handle the housework myself, don\'t worry about that for me."

"Okay."

Seeing Xiaoyun accepting Leyan\'s answer, Yueyue still felt he was considering it inside his head.

"Xiaoyun, you\'re not letting more women into our house," Yueyue warned as she picked up her bowl of rice.

"Okay, okay, fine... I just thought maybe Leyan wanted to do something else rather than being forced to take care of kids."
