Chapter 1885
Zhao Chi 【Great, thank you, Instructor Li】
Li Ruanyu 【Hehe, you still have a lot to learn. Be good and study with me~】
Zhao Chi 【Yes, Instructor】
Li Ruanyu 【Hehe, let's go. Gu Qing's side should be done with the notifications. I'll immediately transfer some hands to help you clear the farmland】
Zhao Chi 【Thank you, Instructor】
Li Ruanyu 【Call me wife】
Zhao Chi 【Thank you, wife】
Li Ruanyu 【You're welcome, little husband】
More than ten minutes later.
Li Ruanyu appeared in Chaoge Town with her subordinates.
One could say… it was an army.
Gu Qing looked at the group of laborers behind Li Ruanyu with slight surprise.
The most eye-catching were the mountains of flesh.
They were a group of dark-green giant beastfolk, extremely fat, standing up to 5 meters tall.
They looked low on intelligence.
There were also quite a few tall and lanky giant demons, over 4 meters tall, looking extremely muscular.
They seemed a bit smarter.
Then there was a large group of strong beastfolk burly men, 2.5 meters tall, each one looking like a bundle of muscle.
These strong beastfolk were considered a high-intelligence race, though still a notch below humans and elves.
The tall and slender Gu Qing, in front of them, was almost like a petite flower fairy.
"Sister Ruanyu, are all these laborers?"
Li Ruanyu nodded: "Yes."
"Is my lord Zhao Chi inside your body?"
Li Ruanyu covered her mouth and laughed: "Yes, he said he needs to practice our coordination more, so he's staying with me for now."
Zhao Chi sighed: "I'll come out in a bit."
Gu Qing nodded: "Sister Ruanyu, the ratfolk are still loosening soil and digging holes in the outer land, but I've already recalled those slave workers. What are your arrangements? How should we do this?"
Li Ruanyu smiled and shook her head: "What arrangements would I have? Everything regarding Zhao Chi's matters is up to you. I'm just here to transfer some labor over for you. They'll all take your orders."
Gu Qing waved her hand: "Sister Ruanyu, you have far more experience than me. If you have any good arrangements, just tell me. I can learn a lot too."
Li Ruanyu laughed: "You really know how to talk. No wonder Zhao Chi always puts you first. I've seen all of Zhao Chi's territories, and your arrangements are much better than what I had before. If you have other experience questions, feel free to ask me anytime, but as for farming, there's no need for that."
Gu Qing was already starting to feel happy after hearing the first half of the sentence.
She wasn't sure if Li Ruanyu was just coaxing her, or if Zhao Chi really thought that way.
But it didn't matter—she could confirm tonight.
Gu Qing laughed: "Sister Ruanyu, I haven't had any contact with these giant beastfolk and giant demons. I don't know how to give them orders, and I still need to learn about their living habits."
Li Ruanyu nodded.
She pointed at the woman behind her and said: "Gu Qing, this is my subordinate hero, Yining. She's very familiar with these giant beastfolk and giant demons, and she knows how to control them. You can tell her any arrangements you have. Or if you have questions about the habits and customs of the giant beastfolk, you can ask Yining too. She's an expert in this area."
Yining stepped forward.
"Hello, Sister Gu. I'm very happy to come here and coordinate with you. My lord Ruanyu has already briefed me. I'll follow all the arrangements of my lord Zhao Chi and Sister Gu while I'm here."
Gu Qing was taken aback.
Then she nodded: "As expected of Sister Ruanyu's subordinate, you're really different from the others. Then I'll be counting on you from now on, Yining."
Yining smiled lightly: "It's my duty. No need to be polite."
Li Ruanyu pointed at the soldiers and laborers behind her and said: "This is the list. I'll send it to you to look at. I've already sent it to Zhao Chi's side too."
"Oh, alright."
Gu Qing opened the system.
In terms of hardware conditions, she was already a person of the Greater World now.
She possessed all the permissions of a Greater World resident.
The system was also complete.
During the meal, she had already added Li Ruanyu as a friend, so now she could directly receive Li Ruanyu's messages.
Gu Qing looked at the system, tapping lightly with her finger.
It looked like she was browsing through messages, but in reality, she had sent a message to Zhao Chi.
【My lord, are you inside Sister Ruanyu's body?】
Zhao Chi received it immediately.
He looked at this message with some puzzlement.
Wasn't this obvious? And Li Ruanyu also said she was inside her body. Why was Gu Qing still asking?
But in an instant, Zhao Chi realized.
Gu Qing didn't just want to hear Li Ruanyu say it—she wanted to verify it herself.
Although it was Zhao Chi who had just spoken using Li Ruanyu's mouth, after all… it was still Li Ruanyu's mouth speaking.
This wasn't a matter of trust or distrust.
Some things, especially the most important things, had to be verified personally.
Zhao Chi was the most important thing to her. Only after she verified it herself could she feel at ease.
And after all, Li Ruanyu had just joined.
She was also someone from the Greater World, so Gu Qing had to be 100% certain.
Moreover, Gu Qing also took Li Ruanyu's feelings into account, quietly confirming Zhao Chi's safety.
Li Ruanyu didn't know about this.
Zhao Chi was a little touched.
But he immediately buried such thoughts deep inside, not letting Li Ruanyu hear them.
There was no need to let Li Ruanyu know about this sort of thing.
【Don't worry, Gu Qing, I'm inside Li Ruanyu's body. I need to strengthen my control over her body a bit more, so I'll be staying inside her for now. You care about me so much… I'll give you a reward tonight.】
Gu Qing 【Good, then I can rest easy. Your continued safety is already a reward for me.】
After all, right now he was only sparing a moment to confirm Zhao Chi's situation.
So there wasn't much time.
Gu Qing immediately looked at the roster.
【Personnel Transfer Roster】
【Transferring Party】 Li Ruanyu
【Person in Charge】 Yi Ning
【Soldiers】 500 Imperial Guard Warriors
【Laborers】 400 Giant Beastfolk
【Laborers】 700 Giant Demons
【Laborers】 2000 Strong Beastfolk
Gu Qing was somewhat startled.
"Sister Ruanyu… why so many?"
Li Ruanyu smiled: "The sooner we help Zhao Chi open up all the farmland, the sooner we can harvest. Yi Ning and these 500 Imperial Guard soldiers can fully keep them in check. Rest assured."
Gu Qing nodded: "Mm, I understand."
Li Ruanyu said: "And if any problem arises, Yi Ning will report to me immediately, and I'll come handle it right away. Even if I don't come myself, other subordinates will come to deal with it. You don't need to worry about safety."
Gu Qing smiled: "Good. With Sister Ruanyu saying that, I'm definitely 100% at ease."
Li Ruanyu smiled: "Then I'll leave these people to you. Don't be fooled by how clumsy they look—when they get to work, none of them slack off."
Gu Qing nodded: "I can tell. Each one looks like a small mountain—they must be very strong."
At this moment, Zhao Chi asked, 【Ruanyu, are you leaving?】
Li Ruanyu 【Yes, do you want to come out? It's fine if you do, they're all male beastfolk anyway. Yi Ning… probably won't mind either.】
Zhao Chi 【No need… I'll just go to Gu Qing's side then. See you.】
Li Ruanyu 【Alright, go ahead.】
