This is an extremely secluded room. Except for a table, two chairs, and two glasses of water on the table, there is nothing else in the room. The communication device is cut off, and no one is coming from inside or outside. It was from the outside looking for information, but on the other wall, a piece of transparent glass was posted, allowing people to see clearly the movements of the people inside.
At this moment, there were two brothers, the Yan family and the Zhang family, and people from Li's Auction House standing outside the glass.
Ye Zhen sat opposite Yan Li, watching the man who sat upright carefully spread out "The Thousand Character Essay", then looked at her and said: "Please."
Ye Zhen glanced at the table and said, "Major General, do you want to make another deal?"
Yan Li raised his eyes, his dark eyes as deep and dangerous as a whirlpool in a stormy night: "What do you mean, Miss Ye?"
Ye Zhen felt a sudden sense of danger rising up her back. She calmed down, pinched her fingers, and said softly: "The one hundred and thirty-seven words that the Yan family photographed today, I hope I have the honor to answer them for the Major General."
Yan Li suddenly got angry. Before Ye Zhen could see his movements clearly, the man had already pressed forward. He put his hands on the armrests of the chair and approached her with a cold and deep face. He had the momentum and energy to walk out of thousands of wind and rain. Make people surrender instantly in front of him!
This sudden change of his made Fatty Zhang frightened: "What's going on? Is the Major General bullying ordinary people?"
Brother Zhang slapped him: "Calm down!"
What's the fuss about? That girl is much smarter than his fat brother, how could she disappear so easily? Besides, the young general is not stupid. With so many people watching, what can he dare to do
Yan Kaicheng was actually no better than Fatty Zhang, because he had never seen their young general suddenly approach a woman, and to be so close, even if it was for a reason, it was still surprising.
People from Li's Auction House are ready to go in and rescue people at any time. If something happens to them, it won't be nice to talk about it in the future.
As the person involved, Ye Zhen was calmer than them. She didn't yell, she just leaned back against the sofa.
The man's voice was cold: "Miss Ye, don't be so smart."
Ye Zhen looked at the man in front of her and said, "Don't you need it, General? If you don't need it, just pretend that I didn't say what I just said."
Yan Li frowned.
Ye Zhen said: "Major General, please step aside, I will teach you the first hundred words of "The Thousand Character Essay"."
Yan Li looked at the girl's thin face. She was too thin and too small. Her face was no bigger than his hand, and her neck was so slender that he could break her neck with one hand!
At this moment, she calmly asked him to step away and let him forget what he had just said...
He narrowed his eyes slightly, stood up straight and sat back, regaining his previous coldness, as if the dangerous person before was not him.
"Although Miss Ye is destined to know ancient characters, some people are very dangerous and cannot be controlled by you."
"Thank you, Young General, for your teaching."
Yan Li glanced at her. She was still quiet, with the corners of her mouth slightly curled up, not like a smile, but out of habit.
He suddenly stood up, walked to the window and knocked.
Yan Kaicheng frowned and gestured for someone to open the door, "Li'er?"
Yan Li said: "Dad, give me the broken page you just took."
Yan Kaicheng immediately glanced at the girl in the room. Even Fatty Zhang and Brother Zhang couldn't help but look at Ye Zhen. She still looked like when Yan Li left, sitting quietly and not saying anything to them. While looking out, she felt someone was looking at her. She turned her head and nodded slightly to them.
Fatty Zhang said: "This Ye Zhen really dares to gamble."
Brother Zhang frowned, but he had some idea of what Ye Zhen meant.
She probably wanted to confirm whether the Yan family valued the words more, or just the words on the remaining pages. Now looking at Yan Li's choice, she already had the result.
Is it not words that can enhance human evolution, but sentences composed of certain words
While Brother Zhang was thinking wildly, Yan Li was already sitting in front of Ye Zhen again.
Ye Zhen looked at the broken pages in front of her and said softly: "I know the Major General needs it, and I also need to get the 10,000 square meters of land as soon as possible. Only if the Major General is stronger can I achieve my goal faster."
Yan Li said: "Since you recognize the words on it, you should also know the meaning."
Ye Zhen raised her eyes and looked at him and said, "This is another price. If the Major General is willing to pay it, of course I am willing to say it."
Yan Li raised his eyebrows in a rare way. He probably had the same doubts as Fatty Zhang. Ye Zhen's true identity was immediately revealed. She was a poor girl from District 69. Where did she get the confidence to negotiate terms with him?
Ye Zhen seemed to have guessed what he was thinking. She thought about it and said, "Maybe it's because there are so many people in this world who are willing to do business with me."
Just looking at the pursuit of ancient culture and the pursuit of strength and evolution by several major families, she knew that her advantages had been exhausted.
As for the alliance between several families, this situation should not happen. It can be seen from the current situation of ancient writing that the entire empire is in a state of competition and chaos. Although there are contacts between several major families, they attach great importance to writing. , because no one wants to fall behind others!
This is related to the strength of the family.
From Yan Li's choice, Ye Zhen has already guessed the importance of ancient writing. In the eyes of ordinary people, it is a trend. However, in the eyes of a big family that truly holds power, ancient writing is related to whether the family is strong or not!
Yan Li said: "But there are many bad people in this world."
"The bad guys also want power, fame, and profit. They are very ambitious and cannot get enough." Ye Zhen said, "I just want food and medicine before winter comes."
Yan Li really couldn't understand Ye Zhen.
He is so smart that he can guess the inner thoughts of almost everyone in front of him by moving their eyes; if a woman approaches him with a purpose, like Liu Yunshan, he can tell it at the first sight. Only Ye Zhen, he couldn't understand what she wanted, it seemed like she didn't want anything at all, but she also seemed ambitious.
Yan Li said: "Can you tell the origin of these one hundred and thirty-seven words?"
Ye Zhen looked at him and smiled without saying a word.
Yan Li narrowed his eyes slightly.
Ye Zhen opened the broken page. Because it had been specially processed and wrapped with a special transparent protective film, it would not be damaged if touched. She read: "The heaven and the earth are unkind, and treat all things as stupid dogs; the saints are unkind, and regard the common people as their own. Rudog. The meaning of this sentence is: Heaven and earth are not kind and preferential. They treat all things equally as if they were sacrifices. The saint is also not kind and preferential. He treats the people like sacrifices and allows the people to fend for themselves. . ”
She read the first sentence in the Chinese accent and the second sentence in the Star Century accent, and it came to his ears lightly. Yan Li felt an enlightenment in his mind. His pupils shrank, and he felt that the realm that had been stagnant for a long time was actually there. It means loosening, which is unusual.
Ye Zhen said: "This is a sentence in the "Tao Te Ching", Major General, you can strangle me to death with one hand. I am just an ordinary person, and my life span will be much shorter than yours. Are you still afraid that I will threaten you?" ?"
Yan Li suppressed the surge in his body and said solemnly: "Okay."
Ye Zhen smiled and said: "I want a lot, a lot."
He said: "Okay."
When the girl is in a good mood, her voice is clear and cheerful, "The Major General should know that I don't have anything. When the Major General delivers the things, can you prepare the warehouse and send someone to guard it?"
“…”
He really knows how to push his limits.
He thought that this should be the first ordinary human being to cooperate with him. No, the one who could cooperate with him was no longer ordinary.
Ye Zhen is not a good teacher, but Yan Li is definitely the smartest student she has ever seen, because she only needs to teach one hundred and thirty-seven words once and say the meaning of the sentence once, and he can remember it completely. Don't worry, the Brain Evolver is really powerful. Although her memory is also very good and she can memorize it as long as she reads it a few times, but compared to Yan Li, she is still far behind.
When Ye Zhen and Yan Li walked out of the room, she walked up to Fatty Zhang. Fatty Zhang looked at her and said, "I was afraid you would be strangled to death just now!"
Ye Zhen said: "No, the young general is a good man."
The major general whose body has evolved and whose ears are very sensitive: "..."
He glanced at the girl standing next to Fatty Zhang. The girl smiled back, quiet and well-behaved.
Yan Kaicheng also looked at Ye Zhen: "Miss Ye, happy cooperation."
Ye Zhen said: "I believe the young general will not disappoint anyone."
She raised her head and met Yan Li's cold eyes. She seemed unaware, soft and natural.
Yan Kaicheng: "Of course."
…
News that the Yan family is about to develop the uninhabited forest again has spread among the upper class. Although it has not been accurately announced to the public, a lot of gossip has spread.
Ye Zhen occasionally heard classmates speculating about this matter in school, some were excited, some were worried, and some were nervous.
Developing a new area is a very dangerous thing. Ye Zhen has long heard this news from many people. This is one of the reasons why Ye Zhen and Yan Li proposed an exchange before. Now that the deal has been formed, she Of course I hope he succeeds soon.
The weather is getting colder, and the "Competition for Food" activity is on track. It is said that tens of thousands of people have received money and food respectively. More and more people are coming after hearing the news. I don't know when the reputation of "Miss Ye" will be After the fight, everyone in the 69th and 68th districts knew "Ms. Ye". I heard that she was the one who founded this event because she was stupid and had too much money. She might be a member of a declining aristocratic family who was disheartened. That's why I was so extravagant.
Every night, Ye Xiao would sort out the reports on food and money distribution that he received from Yuan Kai, and then tell Ye Zhen how much they had given out and how much was left.
The money spent was indeed flowing like water. Fortunately, Fatty Zhang's cross-stitch family entered the market and became very popular. He made a lot of money, and his promise to help her purchase supplies and medicines has been implemented. Now he is here It is stored in the Zhang family's private warehouse.
As for the batch that Yan Li promised her, she heard that he existed in District 30, which was relatively safe and had good security. She could pick it up again if needed. Ye Zhen was not satisfied and asked him to store it in District 30 at least. What is the difference between the District and the Fifty District
Of course, it was because the damage caused by the beast attack was extremely extensive, spreading directly from the 69th District to the 50th District. More than half were killed or injured, and countless people were missing. The moat outside the city was dyed bright red.
It was the most serious beast attack in the empire in the past ten years.
Not that long ago.
She looked worried.
Ye Xiao asked her if she was worried about not having enough money and food, and Ye Zhen said, "No."
why
She couldn't tell.
"Nothingness" does not allow her to reveal the future, but it will give her a countdown in her sight. Now there is still: 24:00:00 before the beast attacks.
Ye Zhen put on thicker clothes and gave her family members new clothes. It was rare for her to go to the competition ground to see it.
Yuan Kai is doing well here. He no longer cares about money and food. He counts people every day and doesn't even have time to look at rice and money. How can he still care about it? Seeing Ye Zhen now, I felt that I had finally found the target of revenge!
Thinking about how easy it was for him to hang out on the street every day before, now he is still working so hard to give out money and food, which is really killing him!
"You yellow-haired girl is finally willing to come over and take a look! Do you know that I am so busy now that I can't even sleep well?"
Ye Zhen sighed: "You have so many people at your disposal, don't you know how to find someone to help you?"
Yuan Kai sighed: "How can I trust these little brats? If they are careless, they will cause trouble!"
Ye Zhen said: "There will only be more things in the future." She glanced at Yuan Kai's younger brothers who were cheering for them not far away, "If you are like this, I doubt your ability to control you. I have to choose it myself." partners."
Yuan Kai: "..."
He has never seen such a difficult boss! You try your best but you still think you don’t like him for doing too much?
Yuan Kai is so strong, and he probably doesn’t want to make mistakes in front of Ye Zhen, not to mention there is Ye Xiao, so he has to do everything by himself. He is so busy that his head is spinning, but the people around him are so busy that they are so idle. It’s too bad to know how to assign work. Stupid.
Like her, she only needs to come up with an idea, and leave the rest to Yuan Kai and Ye Xiao. She will supervise and take a look. As long as there are no big mistakes, everything will be fine.
But what made her happier was that she watched for a while and found that the people who came to the competition did not just rush on their own like before. Some of them who had enough strength would support their brothers around them to complete the task together, and the amount of tasks was also increased a few times. , but the result is better.
Not only that, some people who obtained food here took the initiative to help after completing their tasks and helped maintain order. However, everyone who came here knew that this place was not easy to exist, and no one dared to really cause trouble. They could only be grateful.
Yuan Kai was a little worried, looked at Ye Zhen's eyes and said, "They are not cheating, right?"
Ye Zhen smiled and said: "Of course not, unity is strength. This is good."
Yuan Kai was stunned for a moment, looking at Ye Zhen's eyes with unexpected surprise, and then curled his lips and said, "He is indeed a fool who knows how to throw away money!"
Ye Zhen ignored him, sat and watched for a while, and heard someone talking next to her: "I heard that Miss Shen's family is coming to distribute food and winter clothes tomorrow, will you go?"
"Go ahead, I'll let my wife and kids go queue up first, and I'll go as soon as I finish my run here."
