Chapter 272: Chapter 228, Welcome Friends Who Want to Enjoy a Wave of Fatness_1

Inside the small team’s rest room.

Two labored breaths rise and fall.

Slyther is lying on his back on a desk, a strand of hair sticking to his forehead. He lightly bites a strand of long hair, emitting a slight hum.

Wu Heng lets out a deep breath, lying on his partner’s smooth body.

He leans closer to the chest and whispers, “Stay with me, I’ll take care of you.”

Slyther, slightly dazed, recovers a bit. He looks down at the man lying on top of him and reveals a gentle smile.

He cradles the head to his chest, lightly stroking the hair, “It’s not that simple. Without our identities, we have no place.”

His tone slightly halts, his voice growing softer, “Your sister has you in her heart, it’s not like she can’t see you.”

“Why don’t you stay a few more days?”

“I am the resident priest, if I stay away too long, there will…” Slyther begins to say, but his body arches slightly upward again, emitting a sultry moan.

He forcefully grabs the other’s hair, slightly annoyed, “Why are you still here?”

Wu Heng lifts his head and smiles but doesn’t reply.

Outside, the chatter of passing workers scares Slyther into quickly covering his mouth.

Slightly dazed, he whispers, “Hurry up, Yuli will be back soon.”

“Then say something nice.”

“What? Lovey-dovey words I can’t say.” Slyther turns his head to the side.

Wu Heng turns her back to him and says, “Call me husband.”

Slyther suddenly turns his head around, annoyed, “Are you crazy!”

“Hurry up, someone will be here soon.” Wu Heng urges.

Slyther’s mind is a mess. He finally slightly tightens the arm hanging around his partner’s neck, bringing them closer. His red lips near the ear, he whispers, “Husband, hurry.”

Wu Heng kisses fiercely.

And Slyther, blushing even more, exclaims, “I didn’t mean for you to hurry this.”

Half an hour later.

Yuli pushes the room door open and walks back in, she looks at the room with the window open wide, and asks, “Where is my aunt?”

Wu Heng is sitting at the desk, currently translating a comic, he looks up and says, “She went out just now, she will be back soon.”

“Didn’t she say she was in a hurry to attend a banquet, why did she leave?”

“From what I understand, she’s not going. She’s going to check out some shops in the Outer City Area. Your aunt plans to open a store in the city.” Wu Heng said.

“Ah? What kind of store?”

“A Money Cat branch.” Wu Heng closes the comic book and continues, “I am now the city lord, your aunt plans to open another Money Cat in the city, so you can come and visit often.”

Yuli’s eyes light up and exclaims, “Really?”

Just then, footsteps can be heard outside the door.

Slyther, after freshening up, walks back over.

He glances at Yuli and Wu Heng, and calmly says, “I won’t be going to the banquet, come with me to look at the potential site for the shop.”

“Oh, okay!” Yuli immediately runs over, taking her arm, and says, “Aunt, are you really going to open a shop here? They say the people here are very barbaric, won’t it cause trouble!”

Slyther looks at a few Beastman workers passing by.

She nudges Yuli with her arm and says, “Don’t talk nonsense.”

“Oh…, but are you really opening a shop?”

“Yeah.”

The carriage passes through the city gate.

It stops in front of a building in the center of the Outer City East Area.

“How about here? It’s the largest building within two districts.” Wu Heng jumps off the carriage and introduces.

In front of them is a circular building. Because of its large size and a unique shape in the Outer City Area, it is considered a landmark.

The dome-shaped roof is made from colored glass, under the sunlight, it shines like a rainbow.

The entrance is a high, arched stone door, because of the local Beastman, both the door and pillars are exceptionally huge.

Although it cannot be compared with the buildings of associations and consortiums, it is still a distinctive and magnificent building in the Outer City Area.

Slyther, Yuli are also looking up, both looked surprised.

“A church?” Slyther asks.

“Magic Tool Shop, originally a place selling magic materials and magic tools. After the incident with the Hammer Party, they lost the desire to open a shop, and sold me the deed.” Wu Heng explains.

A magic shop is not something every force can open.

Generally, they are chain stores established by large consortiums in various cities.

The current building obviously cost a large sum to construct.

This made Slyther think this was a church.

Slyther looks up and glances at Wu Heng.

If it’s such an investment, letting him handle security while she takes 40 percent seems a bit high.

The three of them are standing at the entrance looking up when several figures rapidly approach from behind.

The one hurriedly leading the way is the middle-aged foreman who had done renovations for Wu Heng’s house.

“Captain, what do you need?”

Before coming out, Wu Heng had someone from the association notify this foreman.

Previously, he was rather satisfied with his renovation.

Now he plans on giving them the renovation project again.

Wu Heng introduces, “This is the priest of Black Stone Town, she plans to remodel this building. Listen to her requirements, if she is satisfied, you will handle the project.”

Hearing that the woman in front of him, who exudes an exceptional demeanor, is also a local priest.

The foreman’s attitude is much more respectful.

He immediately says, “Hello, Priest. I did the renovations for Captain Wu Heng’s residence, if you have any needs, please let me know.”

Slyther nods, “Come on, let’s go in and take a look.”

“Alright.”

The interior of the building is also very spacious.

The walls retain the original murals and paneling, the floor is colored tiles.

To be able to decorate a building this way in the Outer City Area shows the shop’s previous attention to this place.

Compared to the Money Cat in Black Stone Town, this place is more spacious and the architectural style is also luxurious.

It fully meets Slyther’s requirements.

She takes the foreman through each room.

Slyther softly gave his instructions, with the foreman dutifully recording every request from behind.

Occasionally, he chimed in with his own opinion.

After a brief exchange…

The group exited the building once more.

Before climbing into the carriage, Slyther addressed the foreman, “I will be in town tomorrow morning. Hand over your plans then. If they are satisfactory, I’ll leave the construction here to you. If not, we’ll see how things go.”

The foreman quickly replied, “Alright, I’ll bring the plans to you tomorrow morning.”

“Hmm, thank you.” Slyther boarded the carriage.

Yuli and Wu Heng followed closely behind.

The carriage slowly moved away into the distance.

The group had dinner in a nearby tavern.

The carriage returned to the guild.

Slyther declined Wu Heng’s invitation to visit his house.

With Yuli in tow, he returned to the lodgings arranged by the Guild.

Wu Heng could only shrug and head for his own quarters, accompanied by the skeleton.

Once the maids had dinner…

He then practiced swordsmanship with Blazing Blade for a while before retiring to his room for some rest.

The next day, in the guild’s lounge…

Wu Heng, Slyther, and the foreman sat together to discuss the renovation plan for Money Cat.

The foreman explained unceasingly, his forehead coated with a thin layer of sweat.

Slyther was rather satisfied with the plan.

Once the foreman was done explaining, Slyther added a few of his own thoughts and demands.

Wu Heng didn’t have much to request, merely stated requirements for the use of photovoltaic panels.

After all, if the interior were to be lit up with electric lights, the wiring and the layout of the photovoltaic panels would need to be arranged in advance.

The three of them sat together, spending the morning in discussion.

Eventually, the plan was finalized.

Slyther nodded,”Alright then, how long do you think this project will take?”

The foreman did a mental calculation, “About 15 days, I’ll try my best to speed up the process.”

There’s no need to alter the main building structure.

The focus would mainly be on acquiring furniture and repairing some damaged areas.

Slyther turned to Wu Heng and said, “Alright, inform me five days in advance, I’ll bring my people then.”

“Hmm.”

Once the discussion was over…

The foreman left, while Slyther and Yuli prepared to leave Lundham City.

The trip was made to acquire a special item and meet up with Wu Heng.

The carriage parked at the guild’s entrance, as Wu Heng had help carrying in piles of snacks and comics.

Yuli watched, her eyes gleaming, “Are all these for me?”

Wu Heng replied with a smile, “The snacks are in the box, along with some new comics. Most importantly, here’s a list of translated commonly used words. If there’s something you don’t understand, just refer to these reference words. It should help you understand the gist of it.”

“You’re so nice.” Yuli said.

Cough~!

Slyther on the side coughed subtly to interrupt their conversation, “All of these things are filling up the carriage, why don’t you run along home!”

“I’ll sit outside.”

Slyther glared at her before turning his attention back to Wu Heng.

He said, “If there’s anything, write me a letter.”

“Alright!”

Both girls climbed into the carriage.

Yuli opened the window to wave Wu Heng goodbye.

The carriage slowly moved and disappeared into the distance.

Once the two had departed…

Wu Heng immediately returned to his own residence.

Just as he’d expected, Lundham City was no longer assigning tasks to his squad.

While he’d always hoped not to be assigned any tasks, he now felt somewhat uncertain. Was their lack of orders a good or bad thing?

There was no one at home.

All three maids had gone about their businesses.

Wu Heng sat on the couch, turning on the air conditioner for a while before opening the boundary door, heading straight to the Zombie World.

Everything was still quiet at the factory.

There were no zombie corpses lying around either.

Arriving at the warehouse door, he reopened the boundary door. He then commanded the skeletons to start moving the photovoltaic panels and electric wires to prepare for Money Cat’s renovation.

The skeletons went back and forth from the warehouse, moving equipment to the other world.

Once everything was transported, Wu Heng double-checked that nothing was amiss.

He pulled out his key and closed the boundary door.

Li Yahong’s convoy had yet to return.

Wu Heng climbed onto the remaining military vehicle and turned on the vehicle’s radio.

After a crackling of electricity…

The voices of people within the various shelters came through.

“Do gold and silver jewelry count as craftsmanship fees?”

“I’m pretty far from the county. If I arrive late, will all the food be exchanged already? I wouldn’t want to make a wasted trip.”

“The repair shop has set its sights on Captain Ma’s armored vehicle, the exchange conditions they’re asking for are quite steep.”

“What’s the use of an armored vehicle? You dare to fire a shot in the city? A horde of zombies would visit your whole family in minutes.”

The people on the radio were all discussing the exchange of materials at the auto repair shop.

After a while of chaotic chatter…

A familiar voice sounded from the radio.

“Gold and silver jewelry are calculated by weight. There are plenty of grains, as long as you can come over within the year, there’ll be enough. We listed the armored vehicle separately, it’s not a necessity. Also… any brothers planning to make a fortune in one swoop, you’re always welcome.”
