Chen Xiangwan gave Qiuchi Mingyue a look, and the two girls went to inquire. When I came back in a while, I was very sad.
"Go back to Mrs. Ma'am, Mrs. Uncle, this place is indeed the place where the master will live. Earlier, it was the place where an official who died of the plague lived. Because all the people in the yamen got the disease, so this area is also a long time ago. No one is on duty. All the staff in the yamen have gone out to make a living. If they hear that the master is back, they may come to ask for money or something... "
Well, there can be such a thing. When the official came, he had to pay a sum of errand money. Poor father, fortunately there is Xiao Qi, the God of Wealth, Xiao Qi came out this time, but he was actually only assigned to Shen Xuanzhi's side. What exactly to do is yet to be determined.
Murong Xiude discussed with Shen Xuanzhi and Shen Xueming, and the final result was that Xiao Qi was still in charge of the outside business.
If they want to make achievements in this borderland, they need to use countless money. More importantly, it is necessary to use business to drive this area. The frontier is backward, but if it is rich in resources, it is not impossible to develop and grow. It is based on this idea that Xiaoqi was sent out, just to bloom and bear fruit earlier in this area.
"Well, it seems that the room has to be fixed first. I originally wanted to invite you to come and live at home, but now it seems that I have to go to the inn."
Shen Xuanzhi laughed, although the scene in front of him was a bit bleak, but he was also a person who had seen big storms, so he didn't take it too seriously.
Seeing that he didn't care too much, Murong Xiude was a little more at ease. Glancing around, "The popularity here is indeed too little. It seems that there are not many people making a living. No wonder it is called this wild land. Years of border wars have caused serious damage to this place. .”
"Well, if not, why would we be sent to such a place. Fortunately, my lord has the foresight and has already made this psychological plan. Ma'am, let's go in and clean up."
Chen Xiangwan didn't go back to the inn either, but was admitted to the hospital.
As a daughter, she also needs to make arrangements for her father and mother.
After entering the inner courtyard, several people felt a little more at ease. It looks a bit broken from the outside. But inside, as long as it is repaired a little, it can still be lived in.
As for the houses in the inner courtyard, after sweeping the ground, it seems to be passable.
"There are still some old furniture, it seems that we can barely use it."
Shen Xuanzhi was very happy, and didn't think there was any trouble at all.
He was sent to exile in the borderlands in the early years, and he suffered quite a bit at the beginning. If it wasn't for getting a general who can know people and employ people to look up to him and promote him as a gentleman, I don't know if he can come back alive.
He can survive those years of hardship, and now he has a wife, son and servants by his side, he really doesn't think it matters.
Yixuan arranged the rooms, while Chen Xiangwan was in charge of organizing the facts outside the courtyard.
It needs to be repaired somewhere. Where does it need to cultivate some more mud. I need to find someone to make up for it, to add some more things...
Xiaoqi is in charge of wandering around the city. He is used to running outside to earn a living, and he will talk sweetly with everyone he meets.
Those older girls and younger aunts saw that he was handsome and gave birth to a younger child, who was not very old and had a sweeter mouth. When they saw melon seeds or something, they would buy some and treat them to eat. This man is good-looking, and the young man who fights back is the most rare thing for girls and aunts wherever he goes. No, the information that Xiao Qi heard in a half-day effort was much more practical than what those servants went to inquire about.
"The officials here got the disease earlier? Hehe, where is the disease? As far as we know, people who get sick in this place may be silenced. Sigh, it's not easy to be a local official. Once offended People, here, if you are not careful, you will be silenced. In short, when you are an official here, there are some gangs and the like that you can't provoke at all."
"I don't know which gangs it is?"
Xiaoqi seemed unintentional, and repeatedly stated, "Oh, my relatives are here, so we don't worry about it, so we come here. If something happens, the adults in the family are so worried. Sisters and aunts, can you I really need to help clear up the confusion, so that I can be on my guard."
"You young man, go and weigh some melon seeds and candies, so that I can teach you about our gang here. I know my sister-in-law best. The head of my family is driving mules around here. He doesn't care about the influence of this place or anything. Clear. When you have nothing to do, you can talk to me casually."
After hearing what this woman said, Xiao Qi immediately turned around and went to weigh sugar to buy sunflower seeds. Speaking of which, Xiaguan City is really desolate, even if there are only three or four houses selling non-staple food and groceries. This is a city. Not even a border town can compare.
"The biggest gang here is a mysterious gang called Ritian. It is said that there are members of this gang, the Holy Son, the leader, and others. The officials in your yamen earlier probably offended Ritian. People from the Heavenly Sect. Hehe, don’t tell me why this sect is so good? Don’t ask me, what is it like? Even if you are a state official like you, or an official in the capital, you are not afraid. So what? , little brother, if you want your relatives to live well here, you should just turn a blind eye. If not, I don’t know how they got here and how they were carried away.”
Xiao Qi listened secretly. It seems that this frontier is indeed very complicated.
"Why are there so many sects here? Well, shouldn't we believe in various Buddhisms?" Xiao Qi was puzzled, so he asked the question he wanted to know.
"We don't know exactly what's going on. Maybe it's because this is a borderland. Anyway, a lot of inexplicable sects and the like have been passed on. There are also some who specialize in making dolls, and some are just what Grave robbers, corpse hunters, oh, brother, there is also corpse hunters in this place. If you encounter people from this sect, you should stay away from them. It's bad luck. Fortunately, they usually act at night, and they are generally invisible during the day. "
Back home, Xiaoqi told the big guys what he knew, and Murong Xiude thought to himself, the name of Yicheng, a place on the border, is good. However, it sounds like the humanities in this place are not very good.
With so many sects living in disorder, it will definitely cause a lot of chaos and disputes.
No wonder, the officials here have not made much achievements all the time. With such a messy sect, if they want to survive among these sects and achieve results, they must have courage and vision.
