The ultimate Valkyrie has fallen for me

"Alright, let's begin the meeting."

The central office building of the Beikan base, the conference room on the third floor, only had nine people initially.

All the bases and strongholds in the northern wilderness are for the future establishment of Beikan Garrison City. Since Lu Yuan is preparing to build a city, then let's just call it Beikan Garrison City.

So now this base is simply called the North Kan Base.

Lu Yuan sat at the front, his feet propped up on the conference table. To his right were the four assassins, and to his left were Xia Banzhu, Lei Tieming, Sun Baoyu, and Liu Jingfeng.

Xia Banzhu naturally chaired the meeting and, without further ado, got straight to the point.

"Today we need to discuss the arrangements at the base after Lu Yuan returns to the city, and who will accompany Lu Yuan back to the city."

"us."

Before anyone else could speak, Lu Jia raised his hand.

Lu Jia, formerly known as Death Squad A, was given his surname by Lu Yuan.

As loyal followers, their duty is to protect Lu Yuan and, if necessary, die in his place. Therefore, they will definitely accompany Lu Yuan on his return to the city.

Although B, C, and D did not speak, they clearly shared the same sentiment. At this moment, the four of them looked at Lei Tieming and his group opposite them with icy gazes, as if they were ready to attack anyone who dared to challenge them.

"Don't look at me. Although I want to go back with the young master, I really can't leave here."

Lei Tieming quickly waved his hand to indicate that he posed no threat.

"That's exactly what I wanted to say."

Immediately afterwards, Lei Tieming took out a document and said with a serious expression.

"The preliminary work for the new mine has been completed. In addition, by falsely reporting losses, we have also managed to procure a set of mining equipment, which is ready to start construction at any time. The only remaining issue is sales."

For the past six months, Lu Yuan has been traveling around. Besides hiding from Sui Ling, who is eager to sleep with him, he has another important purpose: to find minerals!

Persistence pays off. After traveling to so many places with Dongdong, he finally found another mine.

Although it's just an ordinary coal mine, not as rare as energy-absorbing ore, any mineral resource has immeasurable value.

Lu Yuan has no intention of cooperating with anyone else on this mine again; this time, he wants it all!

However, it must be said that doing it on your own also presents many problems.

Besides transportation, there is also sales.

Once the coal is mined and transported to the base city, how to sell it and to whom are all questions that need to be addressed.

"You keep working on this for now. I'll take care of this problem for you when I get back."

Lu Yuan remained calm and simply said one sentence.

Lei Tieming nodded. Although Lu Yuan didn't even have a plan yet, he was relieved as long as Lu Yuan said he could handle it. He had complete faith in Lu Yuan.

After Lei Tieming finished speaking, the four assassins looked at Sun Baoyu and Liu Jingfeng with icy expressions.

"Don't look at us! We can't leave either!"

Sun and Liu quickly waved their hands, and Sun Baoyu smiled and said.

"Of course we want to go back with the boss. To be honest, we haven't seen our parents for a year. But as you can see, the base is changing every day. There's just too much to build, and the two of us simply can't leave."

Immediately afterwards, the two of them, just like Lei Tieming, took out the information they had prepared in advance and reported to Lu Yuan.

Their current role is focused on urban development. They are responsible for the actual construction of both the current base and the future city.

It must be said that the two of them are indeed very talented in this area, and they did a very good job.

This can actually be seen from their demeanor, since demeanor is a reflection of their inner state.

"You've worked hard, keep it up!"

After the two finished their report, Lu Yuan nodded and offered a word of encouragement.

Lu Yuan was always satisfied with their work. He didn't have to worry about anything; once the plan was made, they could start working, and Xia Banzhu would arrange all the necessary materials.

After Sun and Liu finished speaking, the four assassins looked at Xia Banzhu, who was the only one left.

Xia Banzhu glared at them, and the four assassins who had been so imposing just moments before immediately shrank back and lowered their heads.

In this base, there is no one who is not afraid of Xia Banzhu, not even the Four Death Squad.

"The base needs my coordination and deployment, so I won't be going back this time."

Immediately afterwards, Xia Banzhu spoke up and announced directly.

"So, this time, A, B, C, D, and Lu Yuan will be going back."

"Mmm! Mmm-hmm!"

Upon hearing this, the four warriors were filled with excitement, nodding repeatedly and casting grateful glances at Xia Banzhu.

"However, I'm worried that the four of them alone are not enough, since this time it is likely to be extremely dangerous."

Xia Banzhu spoke again, his expression suddenly becoming serious.

In an instant, the expressions of the four assassins and Lei Tieming and his men became extremely serious.

Lu Yuan is their leader and the head of this base. If anything happens to Lu Yuan, everything will be over.

"Take a team back."

The group exchanged glances and then said something directly.

Xia Banzhu nodded and looked at Lu Yuan as well.

"Actually, it's not necessary."

Lu Yuan scratched his head and said with a smile.

"Sometimes having too many people can be inconvenient, especially in the city. You should understand what I mean."

"No, your status is different now, you can't keep doing whatever you want."

Xia Banzhu's expression was serious as she spoke directly.

"Wu Gu Ying and Huang Ye win; you choose one hundred men."

"With so many, I think bringing twenty or thirty people would be enough."

"Don't haggle, this is not a game!"

Xia Banzhu snorted coldly, but then sighed helplessly.

"Sixty people, no less than that."

"Alright."

Lu Yuan knew Xia Banzhu's temper and would make some concessions to him, but he would never cross the line.

Although Lu Yuan thought that sixty people was still a bit conspicuous and inconvenient for doing certain things, he had no choice but to do it this way to put Xia Banzhu and the others at ease.

Then, everyone discussed some specific details.

For example, what situations Lu Yuan might encounter after returning to the city, and what specific countermeasures should be taken?

During the process, Xia Banzhu specifically reminded the four assassins that no matter what, they must protect Lu Yuan's safety.

Whether it was the four assassins or Lei Tieming and his group, they all took it extremely seriously. Only Lu Yuan, the person involved, seemed rather nonchalant, as if he didn't care at all.

Xia Banzhu was angry about this, but there was nothing he could do. Besides, he knew that Lu Yuan was always outwardly relaxed but inwardly very reliable. He seemed carefree, but he was actually very dependable when it mattered.

After the meeting ended in the evening, everyone else went to rest, but Xia Banzhu alone summoned both the Wugu Camp and the Wilderness Camp and personally selected sixty people, thirty from each camp.

Upon hearing that they could return to the city with Lu Yuan and serve as his guards, all sixty men were extremely excited, and felt an unprecedented sense of responsibility. The thirty young men from the Wu Gu Camp, in particular, regarded this journey as a sacred expedition.

After selecting the participants, Xia Banzhu gave them a series of instructions and explanations before dismissing them late at night.

"She's just like everyone's mother."

On the third floor, looking at Xia Banzhu on the training ground, Lu Yuan couldn't help but chuckle.

For some reason, he could always sense a trace of maternal instinct from Xia Banzhu.
