Crossing the stars, I live-streamed my cultivation in kindergarten

Chapter 313 Emergency Meeting, Hilcher's Plan 2
at the meeting.

Hilcher announced directly: "I will be leaving the family for a period of time soon, with no set return date. All family affairs will be handled by the Elders, with Greck assisting. The research institute will continue as I had planned, but if any problems arise, it will be suspended until I return."

Greck has been by his side for many years and knows the family affairs best. It is very suitable for him to assist the elders in managing the affairs.

As for Wan Cheng, Hilcher had more important work to entrust to him.

The First Elder said with a bitter face, "Ache, where are you going? You must come back soon. The elders' bodies are not as strong as they used to be. The family affairs have become increasingly busy in recent years. If you don't come, we old bones will be exhausted!"

Hilcher is different from the previous patriarch, who only knew how to cultivate but didn't know how to manage the family, and the patriarch before that, who only wanted to cling to his partner but didn't care about worldly affairs.

He devoted himself to the family affairs and always managed them very well, never causing the elders any trouble.

Under Hilcher's leadership, the family business has grown bigger and bigger over the years. Although they have gone from being the richest person in the galaxy to being the richest person in the galaxy, there are still differences between the richest people.

At least they knew that the family's assets were more than half again as much as when the previous two patriarchs were in charge.

The Second Elder also had a question: "Where are you going? Aren't you going to look for the Mistress anymore? Didn't you say last time that you would find the Mistress at all costs?"

In the Second Elder's mind, Hilcher was perfect in every way, except that he wasn't interested in female orcs. The last time Hilcher had finally relented, the Second Elder used his privilege to suppress the previous discussions among the tribespeople about a "mistress," and forcefully announced that Hilcher already had a chosen partner.

The Third Elder hurriedly spoke up: "Without you at the research institute, the Starry Sky series of mecha research will likely come to a standstill."

The Starry Sky series of mechs is a key project recently undertaken by Erwin's research institute.

Last time, due to Hilcher's unstable mental strength, it had been a while since then.

Finally, after waiting for Hilcher to emerge from solitary confinement, they overcame the key difficulties.

This time, the return date is uncertain. If another bottleneck is encountered, the project may have to be stopped altogether.

The Fourth Elder also had something to say: "Princess Natalia of the Sea Clan came to the clan every day a few days ago, asking to see you, but she wouldn't listen to anything we said. Recently, I don't know if she heard that your partner, Archer, has been chosen, but she hasn't come to visit anymore."

Princess Natalia?

No, that's not true.

It was just that the Mermaid King found a pretext to imprison the fake Mermaid Princess in the palace, using this opportunity to purge the traitors from the sea tribe.

Hilcher lowered his eyes and remained silent.

The Fifth Elder, not to be outdone, said, "The matter we mentioned before about arranging for the young children in the clan school to participate in online learning..." This is a top priority for the clan.

If it weren't for the fact that these old folks are too embarrassed to pretend to be children, they would also be going to "enroll in school".

The Fifth Elder sighed inwardly.

Previously, the young clansmen, led by Chu Yi, all said that this Director Xi Xi was the partner that A Che Zai Zai chose himself.

Pity……

Upon hearing the word "sunshine," Archer said, "I have complete confidence in entrusting this matter to the Fifth Elder."

If this trip goes smoothly...

Hilcher felt a slight warmth on the tips of his ears.

"Elders, Archer's trip this time is to find Lady Xixi..."

Excellent! The elders, who had been eagerly awaiting the arrival of their clan leader's wife, had their eyes light up and instantly felt refreshed.

The First Elder said, "Archer, no need to say anything more. You can stay out for as long as you want! Although the First Elder is old, he is still very strong! Don't forget, before you took over, the family affairs were always handled by the Elders' Council."

Second Elder: "We old folks have prepared some gifts for our future mistress. Why don't you take them with you on this trip?" Archer has never been around females before, and the Second Elder is worried that Archer lacks experience in pursuing female orcs. His aloof nature is truly concerning. Third Elder: "Let's stop the Starry Sky series mechs! Our Elwin family has dominated the interstellar wealth rankings for over a thousand years; it's time for a break." If those brats at the research institute dare to interfere with Archer's search for females, he'll see how he deals with them!

Fourth Elder: "The matter of Lady Xixi is more important! Forget about the sea race." So what if she's a sea race princess? If it weren't for Princess Natalia having the highest spiritual power at the "concubine selection meeting," he wouldn't have chosen her. Their Elwin family doesn't rely on the sea race for food, so they're not afraid of offending them.

Fifth Elder: "What I just said are all minor matters! I'm not old yet, I can handle them all!" What major matters? Even if they are major matters, they can't delay our little Ache from finding a wife!

Hilcher was deeply moved by the elders' understanding, but...

"Fourth Elder, a member of the Sea Clan, must not be offended." Princess Xixi was born into the Sea Clan.

Thinking of this, Hilcher remembered a document that had once appeared on his desk.

"Greek, there's one more thing I need to ask you."

Grek was serious; the matter the patriarch had personally instructed him on must be very important.

Hilcher: "Go open my private treasury, retrieve all the exotic plants that Lord Essen, the chief physician of the sea tribe, mentioned last time, and personally deliver them to the water palace."

Greck was stunned.

The exotic plants that Chief Essen wanted were of immeasurable value, enough to exchange for more than a dozen planets.

Why does the clan leader seem so strange?

Hilcher, feeling he had finished explaining, adjourned the meeting and instructed, "Wan Cheng, stay behind."

Wan Cheng, who remained behind, summarized the tasks that Hilcher had given him.

First, investigate relevant information about Lady Jiang Yuxi, focusing on her past before entering the Imperial Star and her family. This must be done discreetly.

Secondly, give all of Jiang Yuxi's former male guardians a thorough dressing down.

However, to be fair, these males are really unlucky. After breaking their guardian contract with Lady Jiang Yuxi, they each managed to hook up with an A-level female beastman with the help of the young lady from the Aksu family.

But for some unknown reason, it was as if they were cursed; their families went bankrupt, and they were abandoned by their respective contracted females.

They're even being specifically asked by the clan chief to "take good care of them"—how "lucky" of them all...

Third, put pressure on the Imperial Clan, the Female Protection Association, the Purifier Protection Association, the Cub Protection Association, etc., to seek justice for Lady Jiang Yuxi.

Fourth, prepare to become enemies with the Aksu family.

However, to be fair, the Aksu family was also unlucky.

Recently, all interstellar routes have run into trouble overnight, resulting in the loss of a significant amount of assets.

He said that even the children of nobles need to be properly educated.

Isn't that eldest daughter of the Aksu family a typical example of letting her father down?
What a disaster! If the Aksu family's luck had been any worse, wouldn't their line have ended with this generation?

fifth……

sixth……

Every single one of them is related to Lady Jiang Yuxi.

In the end, Wan Cheng summarized: Chief Hilcher is ill.

This is a genetic disease with a long incubation period, rapid onset, and severe symptoms.

Chief Hilcher's thoughts and actions show signs of aligning with those of the previous chief.
