Nian Bing agreed, and followed the servant in Tsing Yi along the small stone building to the depths of Qingfengzhai. The further he walked, the more he was infected by the elegant atmosphere here, and every arrangement showed the master's personality. Unique ingenuity, the arrangement of pavilions and pavilions, all give people a kind of elegant beauty.
The servant took Nian Bing out of the front yard, came to a row of houses on the side, walked to the door of the innermost room, and said respectfully: "Boss, are you there?"
A clear voice sounded, "Come in."
The servant gave Nian Bing a wink, and led him to push the door in. The room was very clean. There were two suites inside and outside. The inside couldn't be seen, but the outside one was full of books, and there were several suites hanging on the wall. Zhang calligraphy and painting, various stationery are placed on the wide carved wooden table, behind the table sits a man in his thirties, wearing a white robe, writing something with his head down, although he can only see Side face, but Nian Bing was surprised to find that although this person's appearance was ordinary, he had a special temperament. Elegance reveals nobility. Manager, the manager of Qingfengzhai
The servant said to the middle-aged man: "Master, Miss brought this man in and told him to help in the woodshed, so I will bring him here for you to register."
The man in white raised his head and looked at Nian Bing, his eyes met. Nian Bing saw the word "wisdom" from his radiant eyes, and thought to himself, this person is definitely not easy to deal with.
The man in white was slightly taken aback when he saw Nian Bing's handsome appearance and tall figure, and asked, "What's your name, where are you from? What do you know?"
Nian Bing said: "My name is Nian Bing, and my ancestral home is in the Huarong Empire. I have learned cooking for a while."
The man in white smiled slightly and said, "Then have you ever been to culinary school?"
It's a culinary art school again. If I have the opportunity, I really want to see what is taught in this culinary art school. I shook my head, and Nian Bing told the truth, "I haven't been to it."
The man in white said: "Xiaosi, take him to get a suit. According to Miss, let him work in the woodshed first. If he does well, he can be considered as a low-level cook."
Xiao Si respectfully said: "Yes, Manager. Come with me."
After Nian Bing changed into the blue clothes that Xiaosi found for him, he was taken to a separate small yard in the backyard. There were a lot of wood piled up in the small yard, some of which had already been chopped, neatly stacked together , There was a shed above the place where the firewood was piled up, apparently because he was afraid that the firewood would be soaked by the rain, Xiaosi shouted as soon as he entered the courtyard: "Uncle Li, Uncle Li, I brought you a newcomer."
A resounding voice sounded, "The newcomer is here! That's good, my old bones can also relax a little bit." The person followed the voice, also wearing blue clothes, it was a man in his fifties The old man, with few wrinkles on his face, is tall and holding an ax in his hand. He has an ordinary appearance and a smile on his face. He looks easy to get along with at first sight.
Uncle Li's eyes fell on Nian Bing, and he looked him up and down a few times, "Well, the body is not bad, but I don't know if I can eat it or not. The firewood used in the whole Qingfengzhai is chopped here. Boy, if you can't finish your work, you have to work overtime."
Nian Bing smiled and said: "Hello, Uncle Li, I have been born in hardship since I was a child, so I can work without problems, don't worry."
Uncle Li smiled and said: "That's good, Xiaosi, you go back, and he will leave it to me. Now that the newcomer has come down, it will save me from looking for other people to help in the future. The two of us work hard together, and we should pay for it." Use it in the kitchen. Come on, I'll take you to where you live first."
Xiao Si left, and Nian Bing, led by Uncle Li, came down to the house in the corner of the courtyard. There were three rooms here. Uncle Li said, "Originally, three people should have done the work of chopping firewood, but since Dachengxuan opened, we divided them into three rooms. Part of our business was gone, so I was the only one to support it, and only asked someone to help when I was too busy, you can live in the room on the right, the house in the middle is dirty and not easy to clean.”
Even a firewood chopper has his own room, and this Qingfengzhai is really well run, Nian Bing thought while walking to the room on the right, putting down his baggage and walking out immediately.
Uncle Li was waiting for him at the door, "Boy, have you ever chopped firewood before?"
Nian Bing nodded, and he is considered a senior when it comes to chopping firewood.
Uncle Li smiled and said: "Don't worry, I won't bully the newcomers. In the future, we will only work half of each other. Our Qingfengzhai is also particular about chopping firewood. Someone will bring the wood. When chopping, we should try to chop it as evenly as possible. You see , like that." While talking, he pointed to the pile of wood beside him. "Let me finish today's work. You can take a look at it. From tomorrow on, you will help me share it. Oh, by the way, what's your name, and who recruited you?"
Nian Bing briefly recounted everything that happened on the street before. After listening to his narration, Uncle Li smiled and said: "Miss is a bit grumpy, but she has a very good heart. Don't worry, although we are only chopping firewood, we can't help you." The remuneration is also good, food and housing are managed, and there is an income of one gold coin per month. It can be said that we are the happiest firewood workers. And our time is also considered free. As long as we chop the firewood we need every day, we can move freely. You can go out to the outside through the back door."
While listening to Uncle Li's introduction to Qingfengzhai, Nian Bing observed the surrounding scenery. Under Uncle Li's introduction, he gradually got a general impression of this place. It mainly focuses on various elegant scenery, so the number of guests it can accommodate is much smaller than that of Dacheng Xuan. Not far in front of the firewood house is the kitchen. Every day there are special staff from the kitchen to get firewood here. You can only see the chefs when you are eating. According to Uncle Li, the food in Qingfengzhai is very good. The food that the servants eat, although it is low-level Chef's made it, but it also has meat and vegetables, which is very good.
"Uncle Li, let me chop, you rest for a while." Nian Bing took the ax from Uncle Li's hand, took a piece of wood, and the ax fell off the wood. and appeared. Uncle Li praised: "Sure enough, I did it before, Nian Bing, seeing that you are so proficient, you should have spent a lot of time chopping. Miss really found me a good helper this time." With Nian Bing's help, he is also happy to be at leisure , more talk.
Nian Bing smiled bitterly and said: "In all, I have been splitting firewood for eight years. Uncle Li, just now I heard Xiao Si and the others tell the lady that a great magician called Long Ling came to her. .”
Uncle Li nodded sincerely, and said: "Of course it is powerful, not ordinary. In order to give up the detached status of the Ice God Tower, the magicians union of our Ice Moon Empire is setting up in Ice Snow City. I heard that Then Miss Long Ling is the daughter of the union president, she has reached the realm of a great magician at a young age, and she is the best friend of our lady."
The magician guild of the Ice Moon Empire will always be in Ice and Snow City. This news is extremely useful to Nian Bing. Although he doesn't know how far his magic power has reached, he should be close to the realm of a great magician. What is most lacking now is , is the magic book of ice magic, magic spells are extremely important, no matter how high the magic power is, it will be useless without spell triggers. Although he guessed some low-level ice-type spells by virtue of the fire-type magic spells, the spells above the third level already have their own characteristics. It feels absolutely uncomfortable to have an ice-type mana but no spells. If you can go to the magician's guild to read the magic book, it will definitely help you a lot.
With the help of Nian Bing, it didn't take too long for today's firewood chopping task to be completed. When Uncle Li was chopping firewood before, Nian Bing had carefully observed his chopping speed, so he only kept at the same speed as him when chopping. Perfect. In the middle of the chop, two men in white chef's clothes came and took part.
Uncle Li laughed, and said: "You are different if you have more. You are really a diligent young man. The speed of chopping is about the same as my usual speed. It is getting late, and it is almost time for dinner."
Nian Bing said: "Uncle Li, I won't eat here today. I just arrived in Ice and Snow City and want to go out for a walk and buy some daily necessities by the way."
Uncle Li was a straightforward person, he didn't ask much, told Nian Bing where the back door was, and let him go out.
Leaving Qingfengzhai, Nian Bing's eyes gleamed. Since he already knew that the Magicians Union of Ice Moon Empire would always be here, he should go and have a look first, and at least ask what conditions are required to be able to read the information there. Thinking of this, he walked along the avenue, asked someone casually, and found out the location of the Magician's Union.
