Wow! My wife is beautiful and obedient, everyone envies her!

Chapter 251 Tell me if there is a chapter

"Ah Yuan, Merry Christmas."

Qi Yuan stood up, revealing a faint smile. "Merry Christmas, please have a seat."

Croft sat down on the sofa somewhat awkwardly, his head down, looking bewildered, as if he didn't know how to start a conversation.

Qi Yuan didn't like wasting time, so he asked directly, "Crow, did you suddenly come to see me because of the Leopold family?"

Qi Yuan's question was so direct that even if Croft wanted to deny it, he still nodded, "I know things have been chaotic lately, but I never expected the patriarch and the others to leave so suddenly..."

"That's how Juecheng is. It looks peaceful, but danger can strike at any moment. The Leopold family was wiped out in an instant because of a moment of carelessness."

Croft sighed. "Yuan, the Leopold family is gone, and the other three families are dividing and annexing the inheritance. What I want to know now is, will our project continue?"

The Leopold family's demise will primarily affect those like Croft, who were in charge of important projects for the Leopold family.

Once the family is gone, who knows what to do next?

"There's no need to worry about that. With the Davis family involved in this project, even if the Leopold family were to back down, the Davis family would continue. Besides, we have many more projects to work on together."

Qi Yuan told Croft about his idea of ​​making a radio.

Croft was puzzled when he heard about the radio project and asked, "Yuan, we've already developed wireless communication, why do we need to develop radio? Aren't these the same thing?"

“They’re different,” Qi Yuan said. “The wireless communication we’re currently doing only allows for long-distance calls when there are base stations and signal towers. If the base stations and signal towers are destroyed, then long-distance calls will be limited by the signal and become unusable. Radio communication is short-range and uses different channels. Its advantage is that it’s difficult for people to eavesdrop on it, and it’s not afraid of being rendered unusable if the base stations and signal towers are destroyed. Wireless communication is civilian communication, while radio communication is military communication. Do you understand what I’m saying, Crocodile?”

With his professional knowledge and information, Croft quickly understood after Qi Yuan's brief explanation.

"I understand! I see. Ah Yuan, I only considered the civilian use of wireless communication before, I didn't expect you to have considered the military use as well."

Qi Yuan smiled. "The Davis family has its own army. Better equipment increases the chances of soldiers surviving on the battlefield. Therefore, the Davis family will manufacture more tools like these to facilitate battlefield communication. Crowe, I know you were a scholar for the Leopold family before, and the Leopold family's downfall was partly due to Noah. I wonder if you would be willing to work for the Davis family?"

Croft gave an awkward laugh. "My relationship with the head of the family is really just that of a superior and subordinate. Although he is also my brother-in-law, our relationship is not that close. It is a pity that he is gone, but I still have a wife and children to support. If the Davis family is willing to give me a job, I will do my best to provide it."

People are naturally money-oriented.

This is especially true in the North Continent.

Without money, one could easily lose their life in the North State. Besides, everything Croft wanted to do required money, and the Davis family had enough funds for him to squander. Croft wasn't stupid; he was still willing to work under Davis.

"Then when the holiday ends, we can go back to work according to the schedule we set before the holiday," Qi Yuan said.

Croft nodded in agreement.

The two chatted about the project for a while longer. When they were done talking, Croft left and promised Qi Yuan that he would tell the other scholars that even if the Leopold family was gone, they would still go back to work at the same time as before.

Qi Yuan nodded in agreement.

The Leopold family suddenly went bankrupt. Qi originally thought he had nothing to do, but no sooner had Crawford left than Nick came knocking on his door.

Eric wanted to meet Qi Yuan, so he invited Qi Yuan to meet him at the tavern.

Qi Yuan was somewhat reluctant to go.

Who invites someone to a pub in broad daylight?

But when he heard that the tavern they were going to was owned by the Davis family, Qi Yuan's aversion lessened somewhat.

After telling Petty, Qi Yuan changed his clothes and followed Nick to the tavern.

Davis's pub is truly a place for drinking. It has two floors and is kept very clean. Although there is still a lingering smell of alcohol, the alcohol smells much better than the cheap alcohol in the underground pub.

Eric's room was a private room on the second floor, by the window.

When Qi Yuan entered the room, Eric had already ordered a bottle of wine, opened the window, and was sipping it while watching the snow falling outside.

Upon seeing Qi Yuan enter, he raised his wine glass and smiled, saying, "Qi, you've come."

"You suddenly asked me to meet you, did you find Ryan?"

Eric's expression stiffened for a moment, and he said, "Qi, how come I didn't know you were a boss who liked to exploit your employees? The Christmas holiday isn't even over yet, and you already expect me to work for you?"

"You suddenly contacted me, so naturally I assumed you had some good news to share," Qi Yuan said calmly.

Eric smiled. "Qi, we're friends, so can't friends meet up occasionally for a chat and a drink?"

"No, I'm allergic to alcohol."

Eric's hand, which was about to pour wine for Qi Yuan, froze in place. He looked at Qi Yuan with disbelief, his expression saying: Do you want to hear what nonsense you're spouting?

Qi Yuan continued to explain: "I really am allergic to alcohol. I have difficulty breathing even from just one drop. I used to work in the kitchen when I was in prison. Have you ever seen me drink alcohol there?"

"No, I always thought you didn't drink to stay sober and avoid being taken advantage of when you were drunk."

With the North Continent in such a chaotic state, prison controls are very lax; with enough money, you can get anything.

As one of the most popular drinks among men, alcohol is often used by prisoners in places like prisons where they are bored out of their minds to relieve their boredom.

Eric also loves alcohol, the kind that really loves it.

He hadn't paid much attention to whether Qi Yuan drank or not before; he had always assumed that Qi Yuan liked to drink.

"That's part of the reason, but the most important one is that I'm allergic to alcohol. I'll die if I drink too much. So, just tell me what's wrong. I'm the kind of person who gets drunk just from the smell of alcohol."

Eric smiled. "Is it really that serious? This is the first time I've heard of someone allergic to alcohol who gets dizzy just from smelling alcohol."

"I advise you to speak quickly. Noah forbids me from coming to the tavern. If I stay too long, I'll have to coax him when I get back," Qi Yuan said helplessly.
