Chapter 53: Troublemaking
"You have a good rest, don't worry, it's all right." Nan Qingxue put her on the bed and comforted her softly.
The little girl blinked her big eyes and nodded as if she didn't understand.
Nan Qingxue pinched the quilt for her and was about to go out, but the little girl suddenly grabbed her, looked at her, and didn't say anything.
Nan Qingxue was slightly stunned, thinking that she was afraid: "I'll just sit next to me for a while, you can sleep." ”
The little girl nodded and closed her eyes.
"Do you know this little girl?"
Nan Qingxue sat on a stool, poured herself a glass of water, and drank it all.
"I just feel familiar, but I don't remember where I've seen it." Bai Jue frowned slightly, he just felt that the breath on her body was familiar, so Nan Qingxue bought it.
"It's okay, just tell me when you remember."
Until then, she plans to take care of the little girl herself.
After the little girl woke up, Nan Qingxue fed her some water.
"What's your name?"
She spoke softly all the time, for fear of disturbing the little girl.
The little girl clung to the quilt and didn't speak, just looked at her with an innocent expression.
"Can't speak?" Nan Qingxue touched her hair, "It's okay, I'll call you Xiaobai, okay?" ”
The little girl was slightly stunned, and only nodded cautiously after a moment.
Nan Qingxue asked people to prepare some clothes for her, and then she went out.
Liu Chen was already waiting outside: "City Lord, I have already arranged those slaves. ”
"Call them over."
Nan Qingxue was waiting in the front yard, and the slaves were quickly brought over, Nan Qingxue looked at what they were wearing: "I want to take you to buy a few sets of clothes." ”
The slaves looked flattered, they never thought that the person who bought them back was such a kind girl.
These people will be her people in the future, so she is ready to do everything herself.
Those slaves are grateful to Nan Qingxue.
Nan Qingxue smiled, didn't take it to heart, and took them to choose clothes.
After buying clothes, the people on the road looked at the people behind Nan Qingxue and were a little puzzled: "Aren't they slaves?" ”
"Yes, why is the city lord so good to them."
"Slaves don't deserve such treatment."
Those people you say a word, Nan Qingxue didn't care about their words at all, and after going back, she took new clothes and bathed Xiaobai.
Nan Qingxue undressed Xiaobai and put her in the prepared basin.
Xiaobai didn't struggle, he was always well-behaved and at the mercy of Nan Qingxue.
After washing her, Nan Qingxue found that Xiaobai's skin was delicate and smooth, and she didn't look like a child from a poor family at all.
"Could it be that Xiaobai is the young lady of a big family?"
Bai Jue shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
After dressing her in new clothes, she asked the Demon Wolf Mercenary Group to go to the surrounding cities to investigate if any big family had lost Miss.
The people of the Demon Wolf Mercenary Group immediately did so, but after two days of investigation, there was no result.
Nan Qingxue sighed lightly, and now she could only wait for Bai Jue to remember.
Nan Qingxue went to the outside of the city wall and saw the slaves moving stones and rebuilding the city wall under the scorching sun.
Seeing Nan Qingxue passing, they immediately put down their movements and saluted respectfully.
"Everyone, you don't have to worry about anything now, you just need to rebuild the city of light, and after that, I will pay you the gold coins you deserve for your labor as usual."
Nan Qingxue made her decision out, in her opinion, everyone is equal, even if it is a slave, you can create value with your own labor.
Her words immediately inspired the slaves, and everyone looked at her excitedly, unable to believe that it was true,
Nan Qingxue raised her chin at Liu Chen on the side, and Liu Chen immediately sent them ten gold coins,
After receiving the wages, the slaves were excited and worked harder.
Looking at this scene, Nan Qingxue nodded with satisfaction, in half a month, Guangcheng has been on the right track, and everything is in order.
The slaves they bought were the same as the common people.
"Xiaobai, have you eaten?" Nan Qingxue saw Xiaobai sitting quietly on the bed.
Xiaobai nodded, and Nan Qingxue hugged her and walked outside: "You don't sit in the house all day, and occasionally go out to play." ”
Children at this age should be naughty.
"Nan Qingxue, I don't want to go out."
Xiaobai suddenly said crisply.
Nan Qingxue's eyes widened and she looked at her incredulously: "You can speak." ”
Xiaobai pouted: "Hmm." ”
"Then you didn't speak before." Nan Qingxue was a little speechless, this little girl was really suffocated, and she didn't speak for more than ten days.
"I didn't know you well at that time." Xiaobai said as a matter of course, "Nan Qingxue, you carry me back." ”
"You're going to call your sister."
Nan Qingxue nodded her nose and said softly.
"Minami light snow." Xiaobai shouted without thinking about it, seeing that she didn't stop, Nan Qingxue couldn't do anything about her.
At the same time, the Chengjiang Empire, the man who had stopped Nan Qingxue before was sitting in front of the camp with a gloomy gaze.
"How is this possible, she has only been there for half a month, how can she build the City of Light like this."
"Boss O, we can't let them steal the limelight from us." One of the soldiers whispered.
Chen Ao nodded, now that the woman had already started, he could only find a way to stumble on them and slow down the speed at which they built the city.
He sent someone to secretly go to Nan Qingxue to inquire about the news, and it didn't take long for his people to come back and whisper in Chen Ao's ear: "Boss Ao, that woman has discovered the obsidian mine. ”
Chen Ao's eyes became colder and colder, he didn't expect this woman to be so lucky that she would actually find an obsidian mine.
"You guys come here." Chen Ao beckoned to the soldiers next to him, "You guys go and steal their obsidian, I want to see how they can build the city without obsidian." ”
Chen Ao provided them with many invisibility charms, so that they would not be easy to be discovered.
A few days later, Minami Qingxue also discovered the problem.
She stood in the middle of the mine and watched the slaves carry the obsidian out with a headache.
She couldn't have been here all day, the other party used an invisibility talisman, and the level of guarding here was not high, so she couldn't find it at all.
The mine had been discovered by accident outside, and there was no way she could have sent someone to fence it off.
Nan Qingxue let out a long sigh, not knowing what to do for a while.
"You can try using a sigil and see if you can fence this place." Liu Chen couldn't help but remind.
