Everyone's become an adventurer, so who's going to put in the effort themselves?

Sia turned her head, glanced at the streetwalkers around her, and sneered:

"They are just vines parasitizing on Mona's big tree."

Lynn couldn't refute this statement, and even secretly agreed with it.

At this moment, Xia said calmly:

“My mother told me that farmers are the eldest sons of Mona City. They are the most obedient and the most willing to give, so we should support them and ensure that their lives are orderly.”

"The citizens are the disobedient second sons; they are the most shrewd and have the loudest voices. They need to be educated occasionally so that they know the consequences of making mistakes."

"Adventurers are like unruly infants; they need a stable home and the opportunity to make mistakes, because among them, leaders who pave the way are often the most likely to emerge."

As for them...

Sia watched the ladies with a smile, twirling a rose candle in her hand.

in an instant,

The girls' eyes lit up when they saw the candles.

The constant chirping could be heard.

Lynn felt as if he had entered a lush forest, where he could hear a hundred birds singing:

At this moment, Sia smiled and said:

"The fact that they can live here in peace is already the greatest blessing."

After saying that, Xia tilted her head and thought for a moment before saying:

"So many people are yelling at me this time."

"Let's lower the buyback price of rose candles to 350 fiat currency next time."

"The people below are still too soft-hearted."

After saying that, Sia turned around and smiled at Lynn, saying:

"Don't let their appearance fool you, they're masters at playing the victim."

Lynn understood immediately and blurted out, "A gambling father, a sick mother, a young brother, and a broken man?"

Sia paused for a moment, then gave Lynn a reproachful look:

"You speak so fluently?"

"You're quite talented!"

"It's just the experience of a senior," Lynn said, slightly embarrassed.

At that moment, Sia placed the rose candle in her hand into Lynn's hand, smiling as she said:

"Alright, our clever child, it's time to broaden your horizons."

"Oh, by the way, although we don't mind you trying something new, please be careful."

"Give me a little trust, okay? Am I the kind of person who accepts everyone's offer?"

Lynn took the rose candle, casually picked out a young-looking black-haired girl, and walked over.

Xia looked at Lynn and picked out his target so quickly, her expression strange:

"This...is what you call not accepting everyone who comes?"

However, less than five minutes later, Lynn walked out of the small house by the roadside with a shocked look on his face and looked up at the moon in the sky.

At this moment, the skill panel was clearly displayed deep within Lynn's consciousness.

[Identified a subspecies of mad horse disease; Identification skill upgraded! Identification skill Lv1→lv10.]

[A special type of disease has been discovered. The Dragon of Knowledge has been activated, and the skill 'Medicine Lv1 (Human Species, Anthropology, Gynecology)' has been learned.]

At this moment, Xia walked over with a puzzled look and asked curiously, "Why did you come out so quickly?"

Lynn's lips twitched.

At this moment, he, who had never smoked before, really wanted to have one.

"Stop asking! If you do, you'll just be saying you found a ghost!!"

After saying this, Lynn came over, placed his hands on Sia's shoulders, and looked serious:

"I'm impressed! The person who invented this method of cheating on identification is a genius!!"

Chapter 116 Which cadre can withstand this test?

"You...didn't stumble upon a rare medical record, did you?"

After being held down by Lynn, Xia suddenly realized something and looked at Lynn with an uncertain expression, as if she were looking at an unlucky guy who had walked to the side of the road and was suddenly drenched in bird droppings.

Those who frequent the industry know that streetwalkers have some basic issues to varying degrees.

It's not that they don't care about hygiene; in fact, they are the most hygienic of all.

But just as the gods of Teyvat wear down with age, the tools the women use for production will also wear down with repeated use.

Therefore, in this group, being healthy is a rare occurrence; basically, everyone has some underlying health condition that doesn't affect guests much.

If someone hosts many people of different races, it is actually normal for them to contract diseases specific to those races.

Since this is a normal phenomenon, there must be countermeasures.

Therefore, there are many churches and monasteries around Rose Street, and any priest you randomly pick from them is a gynecologist.

In this situation, encountering a woman who is seriously ill but still working while sick certainly requires a bit of luck.

"I admit, I seem to have had some good luck."

Lynn sighed with a complicated expression:

"It's 'mad horse disease' that you wrote in your booklet."

"It's the one that you might get when you don't wear protective gear like a horse-orc."

"To be honest, after she went in, she deliberately told me that she was afraid of light and asked me not to turn on the magic stone lamp, but to turn on a red light that was very dim. That made me wary."

"In my hometown, those kinds of lights were used to illuminate pork, making it impossible for people to see the quality of the meat—these were the lights of unscrupulous merchants."

"So while she was taking off her clothes, I used a fireball spell to create a small fireball and shone it on her."

"Good guy!"

"What about papules, blisters, pustules, and ulcers..."

"Stop! Stop! Stop!!"

Sia quickly raised her hand to make a stop gesture, interrupting Lynn's speech:

"Don't bother explaining this to me in detail."

As she spoke, Xia walked to the room Lynn had entered before, picked the roses off the door, stripped off all the petals, leaving only a bare stem, and then stuck them back on the door.

At this moment, the young woman with black hair came out of the room. After seeing Sia tearing off the flower petals, she opened her mouth, but in the end, she didn't say anything and withdrew her mouth again.

After doing all that, Sia came back, clapped her hands at Lynn, and said:

"nailed it!"

"Seriously, they still dare to go out and do business in this situation. They really value money over their lives."

“This is…” Lynn pointed to the bare rose on the door.

"Infection warning. Once you see this, the smuggler in charge here will bring a priest to treat these people and force them to rest for a period of time until the priest issues a certificate of recovery before they can resume business."

"This process takes about one or two months, so some women take the risk of trying to get away with it by waiting until they've finished their shifts for a day or two before seeking out black market therapists for quick treatment."

As Xia finished speaking, she put her hands on her hips and sighed:

"Sometimes, I really don't understand what these people are thinking. Do they really have to go to such lengths to make money?"

"Even though the price of rose candles has been reduced to below 500, how come there are still so many people in this industry?"

“The workshops in the city are hiring every day, and the churches and monasteries are sending priests over every day to preach the dangers of disease, but not many people choose to change their lifestyle.”

"How about... we try a crackdown?" Lynn said, waving his fist.

“Don’t you think you’ve ever been hurt?” Xia sighed even more upon hearing this: “If you are hurt, these people will run outside the city and go to Countess Peroz’s territory next door to find new jobs.”

"From a tax perspective, this will lead to a loss of the city's economy, but the tax revenue is not too bad. We can take a different approach and increase the tax on the underground city's output to get it back from Mrs. Pelosi."

"But unfortunately, the women who go to Mrs. Pelosi's place are quickly controlled by the gangs there, addicted to all sorts of addictive products, and then they start kidnapping citizens who come to consume them, causing all sorts of trouble."

Sia shrugged and said:

"So, after a period of crackdown, the municipal council suggested that we stop expelling the women, but instead explicitly prohibit them from working in the industry. They didn't expel them, and instead assigned obedient human traffickers to manage the industry and collect taxes."

"In the end, as we kept working on it, we created Rose Street, a special area."

As Lynn listened, his expression became somewhat subtle as he said:

"By the way, why are you explaining all this to me?"

"I don't care about the survival of any girls, I only care about whether I can become stronger!"

Sia made a "Hmm?" sound, looking at Lynn with a puzzled expression:

"Didn't Ramie tell you?"

"Huh?" Lynn returned the same questioning look.

Sia put her index finger to her lips and looked at Lynn with a smile:

"Although Mona City is managed by the Mona family, it is actually jointly governed by Mona and her allied families."

"And the Knightworth family, as an ally, is essentially a member of the city's administration."

"As a new generation member of Knightworth, you will eventually be assigned to a position within the city's departments."

"Under these circumstances, you're telling me you don't want to know what's going on inside the city?"

As Sia finished speaking, she raised the corners of her mouth and waved her fist at Lynn with a 'threatening' look:

“If you don’t know the situation, those citizens who are in charge of management and have the loudest voices will dare to fabricate all kinds of information to induce you to make judgments that are favorable to themselves.”

"Adventurers certainly need to ensure their strength, but if they lack understanding of all aspects of the city and are thus deceived by these middle-level citizens, the consequences can be very serious."

“Those are the bastards who dare to claim that an egg, which costs two yuan in legal tender, is worth three thousand yuan and sell it to me, saying that this is the market price.”

"If you don't help me manage things, how am I supposed to have fun... oh no, how am I supposed to be in charge of guiding Mona City's progress?"

So you just want to find a helper so you can go out and have fun on your own?

Lynn looked at Sia with a subtle expression.

According to Xia, he is now a candidate for the city's management appointed by the city lord's mansion?

No, according to this logic, he should be considered a 'crown prince's advisor'?

Thinking of this, Lynn couldn't help but ask Sia out of curiosity:

"Isn't it a bit too late for you to start training talent now?"

Sia then gave Lynn a strange look:

"Are you treating Mira and Alice like they don't exist?"

Lynn suddenly woke up upon hearing this.

The person in front of me not only trained Mira, a hero-level adventurer, but also established a thief guild with a bunch of professional thieves under his command.

And that's it, with Alice Franker, the most talented fox-people in generations, serving under him.

Thinking about it carefully, Xia should have no shortage of talented people under her command.

"Then why did you fall for me?" Lynn was even more puzzled now.

At this moment, Sia narrowed her eyes and looked at Lynn with a half-smile: "Take a guess?"

"I won't guess."

Lynn said expressionlessly.

Sia then said with a laugh:
