How did a good exile turn into a runaway?

Chapter 20 Arriving at Ziyang City

Shen Qiuge made a bottle of milk for the baby when he came the next day. He originally wanted to play with it for a few days, but he might as well forget it now!

I always feel that nothing good happened when I met that person last night. What if I meet him again?It's not troublesome enough.

I simply made breakfast and took my horse away. This time I didn’t stop too much on the way. After another three days of running around, I arrived directly at Ziyang City.

Ziyang City manages a total of eight cities, which are distributed in the four directions of Ziyang City: southeast, northwest and northwest. This time Shen Qiuge arrived here and immediately wanted to settle here.
As usual, I stayed in the tea house for another afternoon, and I made a plan in my mind. Then I went to buy a guest room and prepared to have a night's rest. I will go to Nha Hang to buy a house tomorrow, and I will take my time to do the rest. .

Shen Qiuge, who had had breakfast the next day, sat in his seat and did not leave. Instead, he invited the waiter again.

"Xiaoer, I heard where Yaji is here? Can you take me there if you have time?"

Shen Qiuge generously gave the waiter five coins and said,
"Thank you, customer. I'm not available at the moment, but there is a guy in the store who is dedicated to guiding customers. I'll call him over now."

The waiter got it, five coppers, and he was so happy that he couldn't see it, but he couldn't break the rules, so he had to tell the truth,

Seeing that Brother Shen Qiu agreed, the man quickly went down and brought over the guy he was talking about.

"Little Li Qilang has seen the guests. Where are the guests going? There is no place in Ziyang City where I can't find him."

"Yeah! Just take me to Yaji, who has the best reputation here."

Looking at the other party, he looked like he was only [-] or [-], spoke in a precise manner, looked very energetic, and tidied up neatly. He nodded with satisfaction and stated his request.
After the two agreed, Li Qilang led the way. The best Yaji probably knew the reason why the other party was generous. Along the way, Li Qilang not only talked about how the Yaji abides by the rules, but also how many people there are. Wait, what is the best price?Wait, as long as he knows everything he has told Shen Qiuge,
"How much money do you earn a month as a clerk there?"

Li Qilang obviously didn't expect the guest to ask such a question. He was stunned for a moment before saying,

"The little Yueyin is not dead. If it is good for a month, it will cost less than two taels of silver. If it is not good, it will only cost about eight or nine hundred copper coins!"

"Then who else is in your family? Where do they live?"

"My parents and other brothers and sisters are all dead, and now there is only a 12-year-old girl left in the family. Originally, we had everything in our family, but I was too young at the time and couldn't protect myself from being snatched away by my grandparents. I used to give it to my uncle's family, saying it was a proper filial piety to my parents, but now I feel like I'm living in Yanzuofang."

Li Qilang is a smart person. When the other party asked this question, he had some guesses in his heart, so he quickly explained his background. Anyway, his family was like this, so there was nothing he couldn't say.
"Then you hate your grandparents?"

"There's nothing I can do about it! Sometimes I really hate it. After all, they are so cruel and have wiped out all my father's family, especially when my sister and I were so hungry that we couldn't survive.
But now we have survived, and our lives are getting better, and after doing this job, we have seen more, and we don’t hate it so much anymore.

I feel that there is no point in hating me anymore. After all, my sister and I were given a way out. If we were not driven out, maybe my sister and I would not have been tortured to death by them, or we might have been sold by them long ago. I thought that’s it anyway! "Li Qilang said truthfully, scratching his head in embarrassment.
After hearing this, Shen Qiuge nodded and said nothing. Li Qilang thought he would say something else?As a result, there was inexplicably no more words to say.

I had no choice but to put this aside and continue to cheer up, telling Shen Qiuge about some of the customs and local legends in this city.

I have to say that whenever Li Qilang talks about these things, he is very eloquent and brings the city to life with his words. I am very fascinated by Shen Qiuge.
This is simply a talent. If you want to get it in your own hands, it’s okay. It’s not a bad idea to let him read the storybook and tell you jokes. What’s more, the layout and geographical location of the city he just mentioned has a nose and an eye. At first glance, it shows that he has studied it deeply.
This was simply a living map of the city, and they made up their mind. The two of them quickly arrived at Yaji, which is affiliated with the county government, which means that most of the people inside,
They are all slaves in the families of those who have committed crimes. Most of them are born in the family, understand the rules, and have been trained, so that the master can feel more confident when buying them back.
But if such a person is bought back and the master is not careful, the people below him will stick together and cause trouble.

"Hey! Young master, come in quickly. The sun is getting louder now, so don't let it shine on you. If you need anything, just tell me."

A fat woman came out of the door waving a handkerchief, startling Shen Qiuge who had just arrived at the door.
Those who know know that this is Yaji, but those who don’t know think this is Baihua Tower or something.

"you are?"

Shen Qiuge asked inexplicably,
"Hey~ Look how confused I am. I am the manager of this Yaji. Everyone calls me the supervisor."

"Oh! I want to buy a yard and dozens of acres of land. I wonder if you have something suitable?"

"There are some. Come follow me into the house. I'll get you some drawings. You can choose the one that suits you first, and then we'll go look at the place."

Manager Cui immediately felt happy when he heard this. He had to quickly coax the people, and it would be best to sell more and sell the big house.

Manager Cui, who had just been fined ten taels of silver, secretly swore in his heart that he would make up for this shortfall.

His face became softer, and while he asked his servants to bring tea and snacks, he quickly asked the guests to take their seats.

Then he took out a finger-thick book from the big pocket hanging at his waist, flipped through a few pages and put the book on the table, letting Shen Qiuge read it by himself, while introducing,
"What do you think of this house? I don't know how many people there are in the young master's family. How many servants do you plan to buy? How many acres of land do you want to buy? Do you want it fat or thin? Together or separately?"

After asking a series of questions, Shen Qiuge was stunned for a moment, and then he said,
"I'll take a look first, don't worry about the rest."

Manager Cui didn't say anything when she heard this. After all, she had been in business for so long and knew that it was better to do better than to make sense.

Seeing Shen Qiuge holding a child, he wanted to go forward and help him hug him, but was rejected. He was not angry, but kept praising the child for being so cute, fair and tender, and would definitely be a handsome man in the future.
　The heroine's days on the run are finally over. Is there a future that no one knows?But I hope not, after all, I still like peace and happiness in my heart, no one wants to be like duckweed, floating everywhere! ! !
