Ten minutes. En. This is not a long period of time.

Hong Dali nodded and smiled. “Okay. I’ll wait for your call, then.” Hong Dali put down his phone number and Mu Huishou went off.

Unlike the tension in this small room, when Mu Huishou left, he immediately smiled. White Wolf, who was waiting, asked curiously, “Boss, what made you so happy?”

Mu Huishou laughed in response. “Hahaha! He’s indeed the Mascot of Tianjing City. The problem that we worried about for 2 years, Young Master Dali has settled it so easily. Hahaha! Good news. This is definitely good news!”

White Wolf was shocked. “Do you mean, Miss Lin Chuyin? Is that true?”

“How can it be fake?” Mu Huishou led White Wolf to a place without many people and continued talking. “You know Miss Lin Chuyin is the best technological geek in Heavenly State. Actually, she has another nickname that not many people knows.”

White Wolf curiously asked, “Technological geek, this I know. What other nickname is there?”

Mu Huishou said in a deep voice, “Military! Geek!”

White Wolf was completely dumbfounded. “Military Geek! Miss Lin Chuyin likes to meddle with arms?!”

Mu Huishou replied, “Something like that. The thing that she was meddling with previously was strong on attack. Why else do you think the country wants us to protect Lin Chuyin? Protecting her was one, the more important reason was to prevent her from hurting the innocent people!

“Lin Chuyin has no emotional genes, or they very weak. She likes to study military technology. The problem is that it’s difficult to control her, and we can only try to steer her towards our intended direction. Previously, our idea was to wait for her to be older and try to influence her to join the National Academy of Military Sciences. But if she’s not willing, there’s nothing we can do.

“But things are different now! She and Hong Dali are working together to rebuild this school according to the model of the military fortress! Do you know the military fortress? She even plans to build a super electromagnetic gun on the wall! Super electromagnetic gun!”

Puuu——!!! White Wolf choked upon hearing Mu Huishou and almost choked to death on his own saliva. He replied in horror, “Surely that’s not true? That’s a school, right? Building a super electromagnetic gun on the wall of a school?!”

Mu Huishou revealed helplessness. “It’s totally for fun. The combination of Hong Dali and Lin Chuyin will have a lot of tricks up their sleeves. It’s a little too early to be worried now. En, no more chatting. I need to report to the top.”

After he got off the phone, Mu Huishou turned around to take a glance at White Wolf. “The Bureau Chief said he’ll be here soon.”

White Wolf sweated profusely. “I’m going to go... It seems that this time is the real deal...”

The reason he said this was because if it could make the Bureau Chief come, that means that this place might look like a school on the outside but, in fact... it could be some special place. In any case, it was impossible for the average person to know what it was.

After a while, the sound of a helicopter sounded, and after landing, a middle-aged man in his early fifties slowly descended. This man looked very ordinary, dressed in gray casual clothes. But his eyes were very sharp. Mu Huishou quickly greeted him. “Bureau Chief.”

The Bureau Chief nodded and asked, “En. Where is Hong Dali?”

Mu Huishou pointed to a small house not too far away. “He’s in the small house ahead. The Black Tortoise is there too.”

The Bureau Chief smiled. “Hehe. This rascal. He’s indeed the Mascot of Tianjing City. He can really come up with anything. En. You said he was going to turn the school into a campus city? And Lin Chuyin is involved?”

Mu Huishou nodded and said, “Yes. It seems they’re very enthusiastic about it.”

The Bureau Chief waved his hand and said, “Bring me there. Let’s go see what these two are up to.”

White Wolf stayed to guard the place while Bureau Chief and Mu Huishou walked toward the small house. When they entered the house, Mu Huishou said, “Young Master Dali, this is our Bureau Chief. There’s no need to tell you his name. You can just call him Bureau Chief.”

A person that could make Mu Huishou call him Bureau Chief was no easy character. Hong Dali quickly approached them and sweet-talked. “Hello, Uncle Chief. Please take a seat. Hehe. Aiya, Uncle Chief, seeing how energetic you look, you must be quite the someone. This place is a little shabby, but it’s truly honored by your presence. There’s no better way to describe it.”

Everyone around gasped as they listened to him. They had seen thick-skinned people, but they had never seen someone whose skin was as thick as the walls. It was no wonder why he wanted to build such a huge wall...

The Bureau Chief laughed as he said, “Haha, that’s sweet of you. Okay, nonsense aside, could the unrelated people leave for a moment? I need to speak to Dali and Chuyin. Sorry about that.”

Nobody dared to stay put after hearing that. They promptly left the house and waited outside.

When there was only Hong Dali in the room, the Bureau Chief said with a smile, “Dali ah, the Hong family is also an influential family in Heavenly State. I won’t say anything more, but you know it. I came as I heard that you intend to expand and strengthen the school with Miss Chuyin. En, Do you have any specific plans?”

What he meant was, your ancestor Hong Jun was a founding father. I’m only here because of this relationship. If it were anyone else, there would be no such special treatment for them. So tell me whatever you are thinking of doing. As to whether it’s allowed, that can be discussed later.

Hong Dali understood what he meant. He smiled and said, “Uncle Chief, I just want to build a bigger school, something fun. You know that that’s what I’m capable of. I don’t know anything other than spending money...”

The Bureau Chief chuckled. “It’s good to spend money. The successful are not narrow-minded. They are all people who were willing to spend big money. I have never heard of anyone who has made great achievements by being narrow-minded. Haha. You know how to squander, and that’s what I see in you. Tell me, how do you intend to spend money this time?”

F**k, getting praised for spending money?

Hong Dali instantly felt that the Uncle Chief was super pleasing to his eye. Anyhow, it was best to quickly tell him what they intended to do. “Well, Uncle Chief, we’ll build thick walls to surround the school. So thick that two cars can run on them side by side. Chuyin’s idea was to build ten or twenty super electromagnetic guns...”

The Bureau Chief looked at Lin Chuyin’s laptop screen. “Well, you are intending to build the walls like those steel walls that appear in science fiction movies?”

Hong Dali’s eyes lit up. “Yes, yes! How is that?”

The Bureau Chief thought about it and nodded. “It’s okay, but I personally think it shouldn’t be too big. Think about it, how big is your school? Once you build the walls, it would be hard to change the structure of the walls if you intend to expand in the future. Other things aside, if you look at the ancient cities, the land within the city walls is too small. When it’s developed, it becomes very inconvenient within and outside the walls. Right?”

“That’s true...” What the Bureau Chief said made sense. If the walls surrounded too small an area, development would be limited. If it was too big, it wouldn’t be easy to plan. Hong Dali ruffled his hair and asked, “In that case, what you mean to say is...”

“Try not to enclose the wall completely.” The Bureau Chief pointed on a few points on the screen. “Set some joints here and build turning points. As much as possible, try not to use the other city walls. Well, you can consider switching to various sci-fi styled shops. That would be much better. Think about it, you’re building a school, there should be a few basic shops around it, right? If it were just a school, how could it be called a city?”

Hong Dali was not stupid. In fact, he was pretty quick-witted. “Uncle Chief, do you mean to use the shops as the city walls? In that case, it would be easy to develop in the future. We can just use the turning points to develop in all directions. Right? If we expand further, all we have to do is to build more turning points?”

The Bureau Chief smiled and said, “Haha, it’s easy to talk to smart people. In this way, the high-altitude traffic route that you mentioned will be formed and will expand outward little by little. It will be easy to build a larger area in the future.”

Hong Dali beamed with delight. “En, this is good, this is good!” The Bureau Chief made a good suggestion. A circle of shops as the city walls and it would be sci-fi styled. It was also convenient to expand in the future. It was a school on the inside and a city on the outside. Wahahaha.

“Hehe. How do you intend to build the school, then? The Bureau Chief asked with a smile. “First, let me know what you intend to do, then, we will discuss it in depth. I have come here with a top-secret message. After you tell me your intentions, I will tell you the real reason why I came today.”

This person actually came with a top-secret message! What the heck? That’s some shocking news!

Hong Dali stole a glimpse at the Bureau Chief’s eyes. He can’t be trying to control us like a gun, right? I have to be more careful!

“Well, I originally planned to build this school for my sister, Lin Zixuan. You must know her.” Looking all innocent, Hong Dali continued, “My sister likes to play games. Hence, I decided to build a school she can attend without much stress. Anyway, it doesn’t make a big difference whether she learn those stuff in school or not. Basic knowledge is sufficient. Initially, I only wanted to build a school that combined elementary, middle, and high school. At the same time, we can provide schooling for those poor kids in the rural areas.”

The Bureau Chief smilingly asked, “Is that true? You little prodigal. Our Mascot of Tianjing City actually wants to do good for the society?”

Hong Dali innocently said, “Might as well. I can’t build an entire school for one student, right?”

The Bureau Chief laughed out loud. “Haha. That’s good. Well, have you thought of combining it with a university as well? I remember your initial plan was to create a vocational school, right? New Lanxiang Vocational School?”

Hong Dali sniffled. “En, something along that line. Kids from rural areas, it’s no problem to provide them with free accommodation, food, and education. But I can’t take care of them their whole life, right? So it’s best for them to learn a skill or two. So that it’ll be easier for them to find a job in future—and if they excel, I can even take them under me. The school is not for earning money, anyway.”

The Bureau Chief grinned. “Hehe, you’re quite kind-hearted. That’s what I like best about you. En, elementary school, middle school, high school, and university combined. It’s very suited for the news that I brought you today!”
