Chapter 303: Gaining Trust

An Xiaolin closed her eyes and pondered for a while, then she raised her pen and began to draw carefully on it.

Following the map in her memory, An Xiaolin's face was solemn, and she carefully drew the lines of the map bit by bit.

She didn't scribble, but drew very carefully, and she didn't dare to be sloppy at all.

Where the hands and feet were moved, there were only three forks in the road and three ambushes......

An Xiaolin thought, no matter whether anyone has seen that map or not, in short, she can't scribble, in case she scribbles so that others can see any clues, it is very dangerous for her now.

What's more, the design direction and pattern rules of the map are all exquisite, and An Xiaolin asked herself if she couldn't design something similar, so it was better to change it slightly according to their original map so that no one could find out!

The head of the family next to him and the two elderly men all watched An Xiaolin's movements without blinking, one by one, their eyes were getting bigger and bigger, and their expressions were getting more and more surprised!

"That's it!"

After about an hour, An Xiaolin stopped.

The pattern is a long road, although there are not many, but An Xiaolin draws every stroke very clearly, especially the place of the organ must be pointed out in detail, and it is necessary to ensure that in the case of confusion in two places but not seen by others, An Xiaolin is really careful......

"Let's see!"

The head of the family nodded, looking at An Xiaolin's already sweaty appearance, and was immediately very satisfied.

Just looking at An Xiaolin's tired and sweaty appearance, you can know that An Xiaolin must have used her brain and not scribbled.

An Xiaolin nodded and gave way to the side.

The head of the house stood in front of the map, surrounded by two old men on the left and on the right.

The three of them stared at the map very seriously, and for a long time, they nodded slightly, sighed, and said: "It's really exquisite, if it were an ordinary person like us, it would be almost impossible to design such an ingenious map." ”

Another old man nodded and said, "It seems that this should be the pattern of the underground palace." ”

The head of the family also nodded, looking at An Xiaolin, with a hint of appreciation and reassurance in his eyes: "Since it's true...... That's the best, Xiao Lin, you picture...... What a contribution to us!"

An Xiaolin shook her head and said with a faint smile: "It's nothing, everyone is just a win-win situation, you need a map, I just need to cooperate and trust with you, everyone just takes what they need!"

"That's what it is...... The kid who sent it out?"

The energetic male among the old men looked at An Xiaolin, and for the first time after coming in, he looked at An Xiaolin and asked with interest.

"yes, that special kid who was sent out more than twenty years ago. The head of the family said hurriedly, looking quite respectful.

An Xiaolin thought, these two old men should be the elders in the family, you can see it by looking at the expression of the head of the family!

"Sure enough, it's different, it's really a child who is especially favored by the ancestors of the family!" The gray-haired old woman also nodded: "Although I have been outside for so many years, I am very smart, and I really deserve to be the blood of the family, and I really deserve to be ...... Her daughter!"

Her daughter?

Are they talking about An Xiaolin's biological mother?

Speaking of which, what they said about An Xiaolin's biological mother always seemed so mysterious, and listening to their tone, it seemed that the biological mother was very special, An Xiaolin was really more and more curious!

"Thank you for the compliment, if you approve of me...... Then I think, should you also meet my requirements?" An Xiaolin asked with a straight face, her expression was neither humble nor arrogant, and the two old men looked at An Xiaolin even more differently.

"Xiao Lin asked to know our core secrets, to know the source of our income, not to find out our secrets, but not to be used by us and then discarded, I thought about it...... It makes sense. If everyone expresses their sincerity, Xiao Lin will also tell us how to find the underground palace. Right now...... We have to find the location of the underground palace before the night of the emperor, so ...... We're going to hurry up now, and you two think ......"

Listening to what the head of the family said, An Xiaolin was secretly surprised.

It seems that the status of these two old men is really not low, and they can still influence the head of the family, and they can be this kind of master, An Xiaolin is quite surprised.

"In that case...... "The woman of the old men said to the head of the house," said the head of the house, "and take her to find out what she wants to know, I think it is fair, that this child is not the same as the child who grew up on the island, and that we should be understanding." ”

"Yes!" the head of the family bowed, looking very modest.

"Okay, then you can take her there, we're tired, this map ...... We'll take it back and show it to other people. The old man said.

"Yes, you two go slowly!" the head of the family bowed, and only after the two of them went out with the map did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Looking at An Xiaolin's strange eyes, he immediately smiled and asked lightly: "You must be very strange, who are these two old men?"

An Xiaolin nodded: "It's really strange." Aren't you the head of the house? Aren't you the highest ranking person on this island? But I see that you are very polite and respectful to them!"

"Although I am the head of the house, the highest person on the island, I am not as high as them, and I am not as respected as them. The old man just now was the previous head of the family, and the old grandmother, who was his wife, was a very good head of the family, and he was also the head of the family who found a way for the people on the island to survive, so that everyone would no longer suffer from poverty and hunger, so ...... The people on the island respect them very much, and when they pass away, we will also set up their tombstones on the island, I really have no comparison with them, unless I find the phoenix stone, otherwise the achievements in this life will not surpass them. The head of the family looked at An Xiaolin, and when he spoke, his expression was very serious.

An Xiaolin was slightly surprised, and after thinking about it for a while, she also understood what she meant.

In other words, the life on the island was very poor and not rich in the past, and the reason why there are such good conditions and such modern things now is because of the two old men just now?

It seems that the kind-hearted old man is not necessarily kind, but fortunately, An Xiaolin knows that the people on this island are not simple, so she secretly keeps an eye on it!

"Really, then they are really not simple!" An Xiaolin didn't rush to ask what that way to make money was, anyway, now that the deal has been reached, she will tell herself sooner or later.

The head of the house nodded: "That's nature. In the family, we are very democratic, especially in the selection of the head of the family, we imitate the practice of Western countries, just like the election of the president, not hereditary, not only a fixed number of people can vote, but everyone has the right to vote, and the highest vote can be the head of the family. Although I am the head of the family, it is because he has reached the age of retirement, but I respect them very much, including myself, I instinctively want to ask them about anything, and it will only be held with their consent, and I will never make my own decisions, let alone decide important matters without their consent!"

"Oh, what about them...... What kind of way to survive did you find to make everyone respect them so much?" An Xiaolin asked at the right time.

The head of the family smiled faintly and said: "In the past, the family's source of income was to rely on the most basic fish and shrimp and sea specialties. However, there are too few pearls, and the population on the island is too large, so it is always beyond their means, and many things need to be thrifty and self-sufficient, and they are not as worry-free as they are now, and their daily necessities are getting better and better. The living conditions are the most basic and their program allows the island's income to grow exponentially, so ...... Xiao Lin, you have to remember that on this island, the two who cannot be disobeyed and disrespected are the two, do you understand?"

An Xiaolin said: "I will respect your habits, and I will also respect the status level on this island. So...... Now, can you take me to see what I want to know, tell me where your income comes from?"

She hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Let's go, I'll take you up first, let you see where we usually work, and then ...... Then I will take you to see our way of accumulating wealth on the top of the mountain. ”

"Then let's go!" Hearing her say this, An Xiaolin's heart was still a little nervous, but with 120,000 expectations, she followed her out of the door.

Out of the door, Ah Yan personally drove an electric car and waited there, and when she saw An Xiaolin coming up, her usual disdain and dissatisfaction seemed to be a little less, and there was a little more respect and closeness in her eyes.

This flattered An Xiaolin.

This Ah Yan is a straightforward person, obviously the kind of person with a simple mind and well-developed limbs, following the side of the head of the family, most of them are bodyguards and help block guns when appropriate......

The electric car drove upstairs smoothly, and after a while, it stopped on the third floor under the top of the mountain and said, "Xiao Lin, let's go in and have a look." ”

This floor is a darker building than the one below, and above these three floors, it seems that this is the case, An Xiaolin looked at it, and secretly felt strange in her heart, but she didn't break it, just continued to move forward.

Entering the door of one of the larger villas, Ah Yan stopped at the door, and the head of the family pushed the door in, turned to An Xiaolin and said, "Xiaolin, come in!"

An Xiaolin nodded secretly and walked in with the head of the family.

The house is very clean, and there is a flower garden in front, which is a bit similar to the small villa where An Xiaolin lives.

An Xiaolin secretly thought in her heart, it seems that on this island, the houses where people with status live should be in this pattern, right?

The more she thought about it, the more sure An Xiaolin was that her biological mother's status must not be low, otherwise she would not be able to enjoy good treatment.

"Xiao Lin, let's go in, this is where I usually work, where I live, it's next door, you can say...... This place is where the heads of the family have lived in the past, which is similar to the White House in the United States, but we are relatively small here, and it is just such a floor!" said to An Xiaolin with a smile.
