Quick Wear: Cannon Fodder

Chapter 152: The Nanny in Troubled Times 18

The base had been completely wiped out a few days ago, but apart from arranging people to collect the bodies, the Sun Country had no plans to send any more officers over for the time being.

In fact, the higher-ups had tried to arrange for people to come here, but each and every one of them found reasons to refuse. Occasionally, there were one or two people who were eager to get promoted and make money and were willing to take the position, but they also proposed not to work in Haicheng and would rather move to a base next to Haicheng.

This made the top leaders very angry. Haicheng's position was too important. Giving it up would not only be embarrassing, but the powerful and wealthy would also disobey orders. So they would promote younger officers from below to Haicheng.

It's not that no young officer agreed, but Ye Zhiqiu had already discussed with the system, killing one by one, killing two by two. She couldn't control other cities, but with her in Haicheng, she would not allow the people of the Sun Country to kill people wantonly.

Her move was simple and crude but very effective. After killing more than a dozen people in a row, no one dared to go to Haicheng to die. Even ordinary residents of the Sun Country who could leave left, and those who had not left yet were also trying to find ways to leave.

Suddenly, the law and order in Haicheng improved. Everyone speculated about where the God of Killing came from. Even the people of the Sun Country were afraid of him. Many ignorant people even prayed at home, hoping that the God of Killing would kill all the bad guys.

Ye Zhiqiu didn't expect that someone would worship her. She didn't like it but couldn't stand up and ask everyone not to worship her. She could only shake her head and ignore it. As for everyone's wishes, it was impossible for her to fulfill them. Bad people can't be killed.

Without the people from the Sun Country, the public security in Haicheng has improved. The bad thing is that military supplies from the Sun Country will never enter Haicheng again, and it will be impossible for Ye Zhiqiu to take action again.

Fortunately, Li Fang also knew about the changes in Haicheng. Haicheng had no other places, so he believed that his hometown would find a way to solve the problem. He was more curious about whether Ye Zhiqiu had destroyed the Sun Country Base.

"It's not me. How could I do it alone? Don't think too much." Ye Zhiqiu firmly denied.

Apart from Ye Zhiqiu, Li Fang couldn't think of anyone else who had such great ability. He was worried for a long time. Fortunately, no similar major incidents happened in Haicheng afterwards.

He was afraid that if a similar incident happened again, the Sun Country would use the air force to bomb. At the moment, they hadn't done so, not because they hadn't thought about it, but because the battlefield ahead needed planes more and they couldn't arrange a bombing mission for the time being.

Ye Zhiqiu also knew this and was unwilling to engage in individualism. If she wanted to drive away the enemy, she had to defeat them on the battlefield. All she could do was to support them financially.

Originally, he thought that some royalties would be enough to support Ye Yuan, but in the end, he was persuaded by Li Fang to study chemical engineering, saying that his hometown was in short supply of all kinds of talents, but the most lacking was technical talents.

She is good at mathematics, but practical talents are even more scarce. If she could understand steelmaking, soap making and papermaking, her future would definitely be bright.

Ye Zhiqiu looked at Li Fang's thick eyebrows and big eyes. She didn't expect him to be such a person. He looked so upright but he tried to trick her. He just wanted to know if she had similar skills. It seemed that he got a taste of success from the secret book last time, so he did it again.

A person who knows this much technology is a talent no matter where he works, and his future is bright. However, she doesn't know so much, but with the system, she can really find relevant technical guidance books.

But this time she couldn't explain it using the ancestral secret book, so she simply said nothing and let Li Fang make up his mind however he wanted. The information was given to him, so it was up to him how to explain it.

She continued to study mathematics. With the foundation in her previous studies, her schooling was more of a cover, and she was busy with other things most of the time. In addition to rushing to finish her manuscript, the rest was to find the second daughter of her original body, because the system told her that the existence of the second daughter of her original body was detected, but the distance was too far, so she could not confirm the specific person, but she was sure that she was in Haicheng.

As long as we are alive, we will find each other one day in Haicheng.

In order to find someone, she wandered around outside every day, but she didn't find anyone. Instead, she ran into the eighteenth concubine of Mr. Huang. In just two years, the eighteenth concubine who was once favored had fallen out of favor.

The person is still the same, still young and beautiful, but Mr. Huang has a new love, and the Eighteenth Concubine has fallen to the point where she has to rely on herself to earn money to support her children.

Mr. Huang did not drive the Eighteenth Concubine out of the house. He provided her with food and lodging, and gave her clothes for all seasons, but that was all. The Eighteenth Concubine could move out of the family if she lost favor, but even if she stayed at home, the expenses of living in the mansion were not small. The master could not prepare gifts for the young masters and young ladies at home during the New Year and festivals, and he had to reward the servants from time to time, so there were many places to spend money.

The monthly allowances of the mother and daughter together were not enough. The Eighteenth Concubine's family was poor and she had no dowry. She also had to give her some money from time to time. In order to make life better, she had to find a way to make money. As a result, she met Ye Zhiqiu the first time she sold something.

She did not recognize Ye Zhiqiu as the family's former nanny. She only looked at Ye Yuan with envy as she could carry her schoolbag to school. She did not know whether her daughter would be able to go out to school in the future.

The Huang family is not short of money, but they do not want their daughter to be seen in public. They would rather hire an old-fashioned teacher to teach at home than send their children to school.

The eighteenth concubine took one look at the beautiful Western-style school uniform and secretly decided that if her master was unwilling to send his daughter to school, she would send her daughter to school even if she had to pay for it out of her own pocket. She would not be like her master and be a blind man.

Only with education can you have a future. Just look at those female college students out there and you will know that they can easily find a job and earn much more money than she earns by working hard and staying up late to make clothes.

Ye Zhiqiu didn't expect to run into old acquaintances when she went out. She almost forgot about the Zhang family after not seeing them for two years. After leaving the Huang family, she cut off all contact with her hometown and only sent money to the Ye family two or three times at the beginning.

I don't know how Ye Liushi is doing now, maybe I should go back and take a look. If she goes back like this, not only the Zhang family, but also the Ye family won't recognize her, so she can go back without any worries.

Ye Yuan didn't expect to go back to her hometown for the New Year this year. She had no feelings for her hometown and didn't want to see the Zhang family, but she was sensible enough not to refuse.

"Don't worry, we're just going to take a look and will be back soon. Three days will be enough for the round trip including the time on the road." Ye Zhiqiu didn't want to live in the countryside either, so he planned to leave after visiting Ye Liushi.

On the first day of the school's winter vacation, Ye Zhiqiu began to purchase various New Year's goods, in addition to his own household goods, he also prepared New Year's benefits for Li Ma. It is not easy to find a good maid, and good employee benefits can retain people.

In addition to the New Year's goods, she also prepared a generous red envelope for Li's mother and gave her an early holiday to let her go home for the New Year. Before school started, both mother and daughter had plenty of time to do housework, so it wouldn't be too late for her to come back to work after the Lantern Festival.

Mother Li left with the New Year's goods, smiling. She had checked them and found that all the goods were good things, so the family could have a prosperous New Year this year.
