There are still ten miles away from Qilin City in the sky, looking at the dark city wall as far as the eye can see. From Jing'er's description before, I imagined it should be a little bigger than our school. At a glance, it is no less than a slightly smaller school.
A larger county.
The city wall is five feet high, and there is a sentry in camouflage uniforms standing every few feet away. They all carry modern thermal weapons.
When our ghost ship sailed over the city wall, the sentries on the city wall collectively stood at attention and saluted. Candy stared at this scene and marveled, it was so shocking, it felt like a leader was inspecting.
Jing'er told us that Qilin City was not so big originally. Later, the city lord used his great ability to gather several surrounding towns here, and only then did Qilin City become as big as it is now.
At present, Qilin City has more than 300,000 residents, and it is the tenth largest city within the jurisdiction of the city lord. Originally, he could take over several more cities based on his merits, but Jing'er found it troublesome and gave them to the two city lords.
"This scale is actually pretty good. It's easy to manage, fun, and has all the facilities in the city. In terms of life, Qilin City is probably the most comfortable in the entire underworld."
Jing'er proudly introduced to us that she had revised the taxes in Qilin City, lowering the taxes to a minimum, and redistributed the land to ensure that every household has the ability to survive.
After a series of reforms, although there is still a gap between the rich and the poor in the city, uprisings against the rich like those in other cities have not happened again, and everyone performs their duties and lives in harmony.
"Holy crap! Is that two-story house a brothel?"
Candy, who was crawling out of the window of the Netherworld Ship and staring outside, raised his hand and pointed to a courtyard filled with colorful orioles and swallows.
Jing'er glanced at the location where Candy pointed, and it was indeed a brothel, one of the three major brothels in Qilin City.
Originally, Jing'er wanted to ban these existences, but later on the advice of the military advisor, they were retained and placed directly under the jurisdiction of the town hall. It is one of the places with higher taxes in the city. There are also three casinos that also belong to the town hall, and the taxes are the same.
Not low.
"Indeed, the existence of these places also has a good side, which can reduce unnecessary security troubles."
Candy nodded in agreement, but kept staring in the direction of the brothel. The Nether Ship sailed away from the sight of the brothel. Candy turned his head with a regretful expression, only to find that Jing'er and I were staring at him blankly.
"Brother Feng, are you looking at me like this? I'm just curious."
"Candy is a chick?"
"Damn it! Who is not in the reconnaissance company? Chief Wanli is one of them."
Jing'er jokingly said that the most prosperous area in the city is this area. The place is easy to find. You can find it by just asking around, but the consumption here is indeed a bit expensive.
"How expensive?"
Candy answered casually, and then explained with some embarrassment that it was the first time he saw a brothel and he was quite curious.
"Probably the captain of the Zhetian Legion can only go to a place like this once a month."
After Jing'er finished speaking, Candy's face drooped. Just like in the novel, this is a place where powerful men go. Even in the underworld, it is not a place that ordinary people can go.
"That's for sure. The courtesans in it are all actors who were once famous."
"Shishi and Yuanyuan?"
Candy's excited eyes shone again, and Jing'er laughed and scolded her for dreaming. Those levels are about the same in the emperor's city, so don't expect it in a small place like this.
"As a squadron leader, your monthly salary can probably go to such a place three times."
Just when Candy looked disappointed, Jing'er once again said something that revived Candy with full blood.
"As a captain, you can easily go there ten times a month with your salary."
Guangdang stared at Jing'er and her breathing became rapid. Just when Jing'er was about to open her mouth to stimulate Guangdong again, Guangdang took the initiative to ask Jing'er how long it would take to become a squadron leader from a soldier.
"If you perform well, maybe two or three years."
Looking at the candy, my expression suddenly dropped. I took out my pants pocket and found it was empty. Don't look at me, I don't have any money.
Jing'er held my arm cooperatively and said with a sad look on her face, "Everything is going well in Qilin City at present, except that the Zhetian Legion still lacks a suitable instructor. It has accepted many officers and soldiers who were in the army during their lifetime, but
They are all ordinary troops.
"There's nothing I can do about this. It's beyond the capabilities of Chujiu and I. I can still think of other things."
When Jing'er and I sang together, Candy's expressions were polarized, sometimes excited and sometimes disappointed.
"Hey, this chief instructor has very high requirements. He must be from the special forces. He must be able to use various firearms, understand various tactics, have practical combat experience, and must have a good character."
Jing'er leaned her head in my arms and continued with a sad face: "Brother, the chief instructor I'm looking for is my adjutant, and his rank is higher than that of the captain."
I heard Candy's obvious gasps mixed with excitement, but Jing'er and I pretended not to see Candy.
I secretly patted Jing'er on the back of the head. This quirky girl immediately set a trap and let Candy take the initiative to get in.
"Uh, Brother Feng, Master Jing'er, well, I was in the special forces before. I can use all the equipment and weapons, and I have participated in many actual combats. The two soldiers of the reconnaissance company are my bosses, and the covert tactics company
I know a lot." Candy finally couldn't hold it in any longer, walked over to us, and said loudly.
Jinger looked at me pretending to be confused, is this little brother so powerful?
Under Candy's solicitous look, I had no choice but to cooperate and tell Jing'er that Candy had participated in border battles with us and performed really well.
"Brother, this little candy brother looks very young."
Jing'er said with some embarrassment, Guangdong was her brother's friend, because this relationship must be taken care of, but there are currently three captains in the Zhetian Legion who are also competing for the position of instructor.
"They are all officers who actually fought on the battlefield thousands of years ago."
Candy was happy to hear that it was a thousand years ago. How could those officers who relied on swords and brute force to fight with modern weapons and tactics defeat him?
"Master Jing'er, do you have a training ground? I want to compete with them."
Jing'er rolled her eyes and saw that there was indeed a martial arts field. It was planned according to the training ground of the army, and there were also shooting ranges at different distances.
"My hit rate on all firearms ranges in the reconnaissance company was ninety-eight percent."
Candy patted her chest and assured Jing'er that if the value was lower than this, she would be willing to start as a soldier.
Looking at the Oscar-winning actress Jing'er who looked a little embarrassed, I patted her head and gave Candy a chance to try, just in case he could conquer the other three captains.
