Restaurants connect to everything? It's reasonable for me to make 1 billion, right?

Chapter 511 Necromancer
Sheng Jiu suddenly spoke up to encourage Lin Duo, making Lin Duo blush and turn red, looking like a boiled shrimp, so red that he couldn't be seen by anyone.

Sheng Jiu:......

Oh, she was just casually complimenting me!
But forget it.

As long as Lin Duo is happy.

After all, he did put in a lot of effort.

Moreover, what my aunt said before was quite touching.

The main issue is Lin Duo's attitude; he even said that if things didn't work out, he would just kill himself.

Sheng Jiu felt that she should be in charge of family matters, and it should be okay for the child to take her surname, right?
However, she only felt a little admiration for Lin Duo, far from liking him.

It's too early to think about these things.

Moreover, if too much self-interest is involved in a relationship from the beginning, it probably won't last long, and the relationship will no longer be pure.

So let's take it one step at a time.

As expected, Ares came over for dinner again that evening, along with Prefect Liang and General Lin.

The public area on the second floor was packed with people, making it difficult to even turn around.

After the meal, everyone stayed at the table and immediately began discussing ancient battlefields.

As the Spring Festival approaches, people in ancient times also celebrated the New Year.

The situation in the capital was unclear, but that didn't stop the old emperor from enjoying himself.

Now General Lin has also figured it out: is it possible to rely on the capital?
Even dogs wouldn't dare to be relied upon!
So, let's still rely on Boss Sheng.

If Boss Sheng wanted to raise his arms and declare himself king right now, General Lin thought he would be willing.

It doesn't matter who you work for.

He came from humble beginnings and didn't have many reservations.

So, it doesn't matter who you work for.

He also considered loyalty to the emperor and love for his country, but did his emperor love him?

No.

So, let's change the ruler.

However, Sheng Jiu clearly didn't intend to get too involved in these matters.

They don't value power or interests much.

They are perfectly content with the occasional need for a little treasure or something similar.

Of course, they also seem quite interested in the springs in those foreign lands.

According to those below, the other party brought people to fetch water more than once.

Moreover, one strike empties the spring.

General Lin didn't understand, but he didn't dare to ask too many questions, as he was still counting on Boss Sheng.

The situation is currently at a stalemate.

Despite Ares's command and Sheng Jiu's material assistance, they were only able to maintain a temporary stalemate with the foreign states.

The reason we were able to win several games in a row before was because we caught them off guard and took advantage of their laxity.

But that won't work now, mainly because the number of guards in Xia City is still too small.

They suffered from a numerical disadvantage, which prevented them from expanding their advantage.

After the foreign powers learned that they had foreign aid, they became very cautious and started making all sorts of underhanded moves, causing them to suffer a lot of losses.

General Lin is also having a headache now.

Those high-ranking generals had all died in battle, and now he and a few others held the highest ranks in the army.

However, because he was a flexible person, he was sent to negotiate.

The issue of numbers...

They really didn't have any solutions.

The people in the border town who could escape had already fled; those who couldn't escape were left with only the elderly and the weak.

To conscript them into war?
That's no different from sending someone to their death.

Sheng Jiu had actually considered the issue of the number of people.

We can recruit quite a few people from other dimensions. But we can't possibly sign them all to employee contracts, can we?
She's willing, but the other person isn't.

Helping is fine, but who would be happy to be forced into a subordinate position?

Sheng Jiu remained silent, deep in thought. Alex, however, glanced at Sheng Jiu, then at Ares, and whispered, "I have an idea."

All eyes immediately turned to Alex.

This made him a little nervous. He coughed lightly, trying to pretend to be serious, but his expression tightened for a second before he broke into a laugh: "What I mean is, we can invite a necromancer from our side. As long as we agree on the price, the rest is actually quite easy. Anyway, there are tons of bones under the yellow sand over there. Just summon them and keep going."

Sheng Jiu:......

Jia Xu is here, everyone has to kowtow to you, right, brother?

However, this is not a bad idea.

Sheng Jiu turned to look at Ares.

Ultimately, he is the commander-in-chief; everything depends on the commander's decision.

Ares inquired in detail about the necromancer's main functions and control over the undead.

They are going to the battlefield with real weapons; it's not child's play, and it can't be decided with just a few words.

So they discussed this matter for half the night.

In the middle of the night, Alex even risked going out to invite the necromancer he was on good terms with over.

The other party was indeed very capable. Although he was somewhat resistant to the employee contract, when Sheng Jiu said that he could provide him with a little bit of Dark Essence (the core of a demonic cultivator), the necromancer nodded reservedly: "This matter is not unnecessarily negotiable."

Sheng Jiu didn't have many magic cores.

But she can ask for help!
The area around Shengji is quite lively now, with a row of shops across the street.

With everything available—clothing, food, shelter, and transportation—Sheng Jiu doesn't need to go into the city to buy anything; she can simply step out the door.

However, no one was sitting very close to Shengji.

Perhaps due to Sheng Jiu's unpredictable methods, or perhaps to curry favor and avoid taking up the territory that Sheng Ji wanted to control.

However, although they are far apart, they are very close.

The owners and employees of these shopping malls often come over for meals and chat with Lin Duo from time to time.

Lin Duo: ...

Consider it practice for speaking skills.

The necromancer said that he was too weak to fight alone.

He quickly went back and asked his friends for help.

Fortunately, these people were selected by the system as preferred diners.

Although his priority is lower than Alex's, he can still enter the second floor.

Therefore, there is no need to consider that some people cannot get in and will be forced to abandon this mission.

After signing contracts with over twenty employees at once, the system couldn't help but exclaim, "Signing contracts but not doing any work, are we exploiting a bug?"

Sheng Jiu felt guilty and dared not speak, while the system laughed heartily.

However, this cannot be considered a bug.

After all, with multiple dimensions open, isn't it normal to hire more employees?

The system didn't mention fixing it, and the attitude was very friendly, which means that this wasn't considered a bug.

The necromancer began to coordinate with Ares and his group.

However, they were all dressed in long, black robes, their faces obscured, and shrouded in black mist, giving them a completely different appearance from the mortal world.

What Sheng Jiu needs to solve now is...

The magic core I promised them.

Fortunately, there weren't many, only two for each person.

It was the middle of the night, and she couldn't very well go out.

The next day, Sheng Jiu took Lin Duo to the cultivation world to inquire about the demon core.

　The second update will be at 19 PM.
