Chapter 495: Introducing Business
"Fletcher." Su Xia was originally leaning on the back of the sofa, but she quickly sat down and greeted Fletcher.
Fletcher, the first Fletcher-class destroyer, can be said to be the most famous destroyer of the United States in World War II... Whoever owns a total of 175 Fletcher-class destroyers will not be unknown. It is worth mentioning that so many Fletcher-class destroyers were built in just a few years, which fully demonstrated the strong industrial capacity and national strength of the United States.
Historically, Fletcher participated in the Battle of Guadalcanal, the Battle of Tassafaronga and other naval battles. Although there was nothing noteworthy about him, he was awarded a total of fifteen battle stars throughout World War II.
The conditions for obtaining Fletcher in the game are quite special. A player can only get one, and it must be obtained after completing a series of very tedious tasks. That series of tasks was difficult to complete in the early days of the game, and Fletcher at that time was absolutely amazing. After the game has been running for many years, it has become easier and easier to obtain, and it is not something that a novice can easily obtain.
After the transformation, it has a skill - the best destroyer. The attributes are increased according to the number of Fletcher-class destroyer illustrations opened by the player. There are already many Fletcher-class destroyers, and more and more Fletcher-class destroyers are being installed in the game. As a destroyer, it has an attribute panel comparable to that of a torpedoed heavy cruiser. It is flawless and simply powerful.
It is conceivable that if all Fletcher-class destroyers are fully installed and modified one day, Fletcher can surely be transformed into a star destroyer. It just so happens that Fletcher's game portrait is a plump girl, who does not look like a destroyer at all, which is in sharp contrast to someone.
Su Xia looked at the plump girl. This Fletcher looked much older than the character in the game, and didn't look childish at all.
"Ah, Admiral, you're here." Fletcher just glanced at Su Xia.
Su Xia noticed that Fletcher looked haggard, and asked curiously, "What happened? Why do you look so tired?"
"Ask Willy." Fletcher said as he walked to the coffee table, found a cup and poured himself some water.
Su Xia looked at the red-haired loli who followed Fletcher in, William D. Porter, an absolute naughty kid and troublemaker, and could imagine what had happened.
"That must be Willy doing something wrong again," Claxton said.
"It's just a skull painted on a motorcycle, but they arrested him and asked my sister to go and get him back in person," Willy said aggrievedly.
"What motorcycle? Whose motorcycle is it?" Su Xia asked.
“The black one, the motorcycle,” Willy answered.
"Did you attack Iowa's motorcycle again?" Su Xia said. He remembered that Iowa cherished her motorcycle very much and was very afraid that Willy would get close to her motorcycle because Willy liked to doodle .
"You know that the motorcycle is Iowa's treasure," Hillman said. "You graffitied on her motorcycle again and again. You deserve to be punished."
"I'm not doing graffiti or playing a prank," Willy said. "I'm planning to draw a cool skull on the motorcycle so that it will look impressive when I drive it out."
"What's the point of being handsome..." Hillman said, "Not only did you get a lesson, but you also caused your elder sister to go and ask for the person back. You should apologize to sister Iowa."
"I see." Willy lowered his head.
"Every time I know, I do it again not long after. What do you know?" Hillman said, "I was wrong, will you dare to do it next time?"
"I didn't say that," Willy whispered.
Hillman said, “But you do that.”
Sullivan interrupted, "Hillman, please stop talking."
“I can’t say anything about what she did.” Hillman snorted. “She was caught graffitiing on someone’s motorcycle, and she asked her sister to ask for an apology. Can’t I say a few words to her?”
Sullivan was speechless.
Sigsby looked in the huge floor-to-ceiling mirror in the living room, scratched her hair, tugged at her skirt, and thought to herself that she should wear a cute skirt tomorrow, or maybe invite the admiral to take a bath with her tonight?
Everyone was having a barbecue on the beach, using fallen leaves to roast potatoes. Willy got excited when he saw Iowa's motorcycle. When everyone realized that he had been caught, he insisted that the eldest sister go and get him back. O'Bannon did not participate in the plea, and even added fuel to the fire, saying that no one could persuade Willy, and at one point persuaded Iowa to teach Willy a lesson.
O'Bannon participated in the whole process of Willy's mischief, Willy's arrest, and Fletcher's going to ask for him. He just followed behind to watch the fun. Now it's the same. He was eating a baked potato and watching the fun. He found Su Xia watching her eat a baked potato. She took a baked potato out from her skirt and asked, "Do you want to eat it, Admiral... Here you go."
Su Xia looked at O'Bannon, who was wearing a white dress and white sandals. Her dress was now dirty, but even so, the blonde loli was still the cutest. She subconsciously reached out to take the baked potato.
"I want to eat too. I haven't eaten any." Willie found out that O'Bannon was handing out baked potatoes to everyone. She participated in the baking of potatoes, digging holes on the beach, finding a lot of dry branches and fallen leaves everywhere, and stealing potatoes from the cafeteria warehouse. She was caught before the potatoes were baked, and she hasn't eaten a single baked potato until now.
Hillman had just taken a baked potato from O'Bannon and asked, "You still know how to eat it?"
"Why can't you eat it?" Willy said, "It's my baked potato..."
There weren't many roasted potatoes to begin with, after all, they weren't roasted specifically for everyone. There were quite a few people in the living room at this time, and everyone had already had one. O'Bannon clapped his hands and said, "No more, all are gone."
“Ah?” Willie looked around and saw Hillman. After all, they were sisters. Regardless of whether Hillman had scolded her harshly just now, she said without any hesitation, “Hillman, let’s share one.”
“No difference.” Hillman raised his hand high to show his refusal.
"Come here, I'll give it to you, Willy, put your hand out." Sigsby smiled and waited until Willy stretched out his hand before putting the potato peel into Willy's hand.
Willie looked at the potato peel that Sigsby had put in her hand, was stunned, threw it away fiercely, and shouted, "Sigsby, you dare to play tricks on me."
"Why not?" Sigsby stuck out his tongue, took a bite of the baked potato, and then showed an expression of enjoyment, looking very sarcastic.
Willy took action.
The lolis started fighting.
Su Xia was still peeling potatoes and giving half to Clarkston who was clinging to him. He saw that Fletcher's shoulders were drooping and his expression looked even more tired.
Originally, when Su Xia finished visiting everyone's rooms, it was already past six o'clock. After some playing around, it was now nearly seven o'clock and it was time for dinner.
Leaving the villa and heading to the mess hall, there were quite a lot of people on the Fletcher- class destroyer. Even though some people did not go home and probably went directly to the mess hall, there were still quite a few people forming a long line. Thatcher and Willie were at the front of the line, playing and joking, Suxia, Claxton, and Sigsby were in the middle, and Fletcher was at the end.
"I have something to do... You go first, I'll catch up with you later." Su Xia found that Fletcher was walking at the end of the team.
Su Xia slowed down her pace, fell to the back of the team, walked beside Fletcher, and called out, "Fletcher."
"Hmm?" Fletcher looked at Su Xia, the admiral of the garrison. He had been back for almost two months. He was busy with work every day, and there were always many people around him during his breaks. He had only said a few simple words in such a long time. "Admiral, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Does Fletcher take care of so many sisters by himself?" Su Xia asked.
"Um."
"Is there no one else to help?"
"No," Fletcher replied.
" Fletcher, it's so hard, taking care of so many sisters by yourself." Su Xia said sympathetically.
"It's not hard." Fletcher shook his head and said, "There are washing machines for washing clothes, and everyone knows how to hang clothes by themselves. It's just that sometimes they forget and I have to remind them. In the past, there were Chinese restaurants, fast food restaurants and many other places to eat. Now the admiral has reformed the cafeteria, and now everyone goes to the cafeteria to eat, and I don't need to cook..."
"Even so," Su Xia said, "the garrison takes care of everyone's food, clothing, housing and transportation. There is also a sum of pocket money for everyone every month. There are many things besides food, clothing, housing and transportation. Life is not just about food, clothing, housing and transportation."
"Just give two examples." Su Xia thought for a while and said, "What if a bunch of troublemakers don't sleep at night? Do you care? If you do, do you need to check on them? What if they don't want to get up in the morning and sleep in? Do you need to wake them up? And you have to make sure everyone washes up, otherwise someone will definitely be lazy... There must be a lot of things like what happened this afternoon."
"The tutelage can help you with food, clothing, housing and transportation. Everyone can help you. Besides that, it's not easy to ask everyone to help you. Can they help you teach your sister a lesson?" Su Xia stared at the huge team in front of her. "If everyone is obedient, it would be easy to control them. Obviously, everyone is not obedient."
Su Xia thought that Bei Zhai alone was enough to worry Bismarck. When she stayed in her room before, when they hugged and chatted, they spent most of their time talking about her two sisters and never talked about Hu De. In contrast, when she hugged and chatted with Hu De, they talked a lot about Bismarck... Don't think too much. After all, what kind of situation is it to have nineteen sisters? It must be terrifying.
When Fletcher heard Su Xia's words, he suddenly stopped and slowly raised his head and asked, "Admiral, you actually know..."
Su Xia smiled and said, "Fletcher, don't underestimate me."
"Fletcher, don't think of me as that kind of man who only knows how to give money and doesn't know anything else." Su Xia looked at the sky. "You can't live without money. Money can solve most problems, but there are also many problems that money can't solve. Sometimes those trivial matters are more tiring than anything else."
Fletcher bit his lip.
"Can you tell me about it?" Su Xia said.
"What?" Fletcher asked.
Su Xia did not explain, but just said: "Willie must be the most mischievous of all Fletcher's sisters. She always stirs up trouble even when she has nothing to do. Today she graffitied on Iowa's motorcycle, and tomorrow she stole some from Indianapolis... You can't light the firecrackers from Indianapolis."
Su Xia continued, "Thatcher won't cause trouble like Willy. Her problem is that she is full of energy, like a puppy, and she can't stop for a moment."
"Also," Su Xia had seen this, "Sigsby may seem well-behaved, but he's not really..."
Su Xia took the lead and it was Fletcher's turn.
"I don't know why Willy is so troublesome... The problem is that she doesn't mean to cause trouble, but she just wants to play with everyone and be liked by everyone."
"Thatcher is full of energy and can never calm down. Unless she is really tired from playing during the day, she will not go to bed before midnight every night."
"Sigsby knows about cosmetics at a young age and wears makeup every day. I found that she follows Mutsu and Missouri every day and imitates their coquettish speech... I don't know when she started wearing a bra, obviously a child doesn't need it."
"Sullivan is sensible. She doesn't need me to take care of her, and she can help me take care of everyone."
"You don't know... O'Bannon never causes trouble, seems very well-behaved... He is with Willy all day, but he doesn't try to stop Willy when he wants to make trouble. When Willy starts to make trouble, he goes to tell on the police, and then he sees Willy being punished..."
Su Xia listened to Fletcher's complaints and grievances in silence. When they were almost at the cafeteria, she finally finished and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Fletcher. It's really hard work, Fletcher."
Fletcher said nothing.
"What I want to say is," Su Xia paused, "Fletcher is not alone."
Fletcher suddenly looked up at Su Xia, his eyes shining.
"Admiral," Fletcher called out. "What does the Admiral want to say?"
Fletcher's voice trembled. She felt that she knew what the admiral wanted to say. He must want her to rely on him. It is true that the admiral was very unreliable before, and it would be better if he did not harass everyone. The current admiral has reformed the cafeteria and promoted the Enterprise to become a secretary ship after passing the secretary ship examination. He is no longer nepotism, but meritocracy. The bad admiral has become a reliable admiral.
Even if it was a destroyer, she was a wedding ship. Fletcher touched the ring on his left ring finger, stole a glance at Su Xia, imagined the scene of the two of them taking care of nineteen sisters together, and subconsciously bit his lip.
At the same time, Su Xia was thinking that he wanted to kill the enemy but was powerless to do so. There were too many people in the garrison and everyone needed his care. He wanted to help Fletcher but didn't have the time.
Isn't this just right? Fletcher needs help. Xiao Zhai formed a service department to help everyone, but no one asked her for help, and she was worried.
"The Ministry," Su Xia said, "Does Fletcher know about the Ministry?"
"What service department?" Fletcher was a little dumbfounded.
"There is a service department in the activity room building. It was founded by Xiao Zhai, Xiao Hua and Xiao Luo. The club's activities are to lend a helping hand to people in trouble and accept various commissions from everyone. Once you accept a commission, you must fulfill your responsibilities." Su Xia said, "Fletcher can go to the service department. They can definitely help you solve the problem."
"Huh?"
Fletcher felt something was wrong.
"If Fletcher is embarrassed," Su Xia said considerately, "I can help Fletcher submit a commission to the Ministry of Service."
"I really don't want it." Fletcher couldn't accept the so-called service department. "I don't think it's hard to take care of everyone."
"Don't be embarrassed Fletcher."
"No, really."
