038 Speak from the heart

This time, the purchase is mainly based on building materials, plus some daily necessities. Robert rented a dozen wagons and hired a few workers from the market who knew how to build houses. Chen Xiansong looked at the situation and said with some concern: "Robert, there are so many people, and we don't have enough places for them to stay, in case it rains." ”

"Your Excellency Chen, please rest assured." Robert smiled: "We have experience in this matter, first build some simple sheds for them to live in, if everyone works together, it only takes three or four hours to build, and it is not too late to slowly build their houses later." ”

Hearing this, Chen Xiansong felt a lot more relieved. After returning to Greystone Village, Chen Xiansong sought Aslan's consent and designated a nearby barren mountain with a water source, along with about 100 acres of surrounding wasteland, as his territory. Arriving at their destination, more than 30 young and poor people began to unload the construction timber of the wagons under the command of the construction workers, and prepared to build temporary houses for themselves at the foot of the hill near the water source, while the old and weak used the supplies on the wagons to prepare dinner.

Chen Xiansong sat in the carriage and his waist was about to break, and the road was too bumpy, so he invited Robert to come in and sit down, and the latter thought for a while, now that these newly moved people have started to work spontaneously, they don't need his supervision, anyway, they have nothing to do, and it is also a good choice to visit the home of the New Soul Thinker.

Sitting in the living room, Robert looked left and right, and suggested to Chen Xiansong with some hesitation: "Your Excellency, is your house too simple, and some are not worthy of your identity, do you want to build a new one next to it." You can apply to the association for construction funds, and the lowest amount is 1,000 gold coins. ”

"That's not necessary, I'm pretty comfortable." Chen Xiansong smiled and waved his hand.

Robert hurriedly said: "Your Excellency is really simple, other nobles should learn from you." "Robert can be domineering and unapologetic to others, but he knows that he is just a 'dog' of the association, his current identity and 'power' all come from the association behind him, and the soul thinker is the core figure of the association, before he knows the character of the young soul thinker in front of him, it is always good to be careful and say more flattering words.

Hearing this sycophant, Chen Xiansong was a little crying and laughing, he really didn't get used to others communicating with him in such a low voice, but the atmosphere of this era is like this, and he couldn't do anything to correct it, so he had to adapt as much as possible: "It's not simple, it's just that I don't know what Lu Dao needs." ”

At this time, Bai Min brewed flower tea on the side, which she had just bought in the city. Serve a cup to each of them, then Ying Ying stood up and asked Chen Xiansong, "What do you want for dinner?" ”

"Feel free." Chen Xiansong immediately turned his head to Robert and asked, "Your Excellency Robert, do you have any hobbies or taboos?" ”

"I'm just free to disturb Your Excellency." Robert said with a teacup and a low brow. He didn't dare to look at Bai Min, not because she was Chen Xiansong's 'woman', he was simply afraid of Bai Min, because as an experienced fighter, he knew that the girl in white gorgeous clothes in front of him had extremely terrifying strength.

Bai Min turned around and went to the kitchen, as she left, Robert breathed a sigh of relief, he felt that his back was a little wet, and the pressure that Bai Min gave him was too great. Chen Xiansong noticed his abnormality and asked with some curiosity: "What's wrong with you, you're not feeling well?" ”

Robert smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not afraid of Your Excellency's jokes when I say it, I'm scared by your maid." ”

Chen Xiansong was stunned for a moment, and then made a puzzled expression, indicating that he didn't understand what it meant. Seeing this, Robert explained, and then said: "Actually, with Ms. Bai Min's ability, appearance, temperament, and even being elected as the Sun Saintess, there is no problem, she can follow Your Excellency, I am really envious." ”

Hearing this, Chen Xiansong felt something, and he sighed: "Xiao Min is really powerful, in comparison, I am like a little white face who eats soft rice, but then again, the book "The Necessary Self-cultivation of Natural Persons and the View of the World" also said that we natural men are born to eat soft rice. ”

Robert didn't understand what a 'natural person' was, but he still understood the word soft rice, and the meaning of the word had not changed for tens of thousands of years. When he heard this, he said: "Your Excellency is too arrogant, who dares to say that those who think deeply about the soul eat soft rice." When Lord Udir was young, he was only a peasant and did not understand anything, and after becoming a soul-contemplative, it took a long time for him to become brilliant, and who would dare to despise him now. Your Excellency is still very young, you just need time, and of course, you have enough time. ”,

Chen Xiansong suddenly came to this world, always muddy and confused, and he didn't have any ability for the time being, so he relied on Xiao Min to support everything. It is definitely a lie to say that I am not in a hurry, but I usually hide it well, and now I am comforted by others, and I feel much more comfortable.

The two talked for a while, and in the process, Robert gradually found that Chen Xiansong seemed to be quite easy to talk to, he had some words hidden in his stomach, hesitated for a while, and then gritted his teeth and said: "Your Excellency, in fact, there are some things that I say, maybe you will be unhappy, but I still think I should talk to you." ”

Chen Xiansong saw that he said solemnly, and his hand that was about to pick up the cup and drink tea also put down: "Oh, please say something." ”

Robert said: "Although our Soul Thinkers Association usually has no direct conflict with the Sun Temple, in private, the two sides are not very friendly, and I don't know the specific reason. Speaking of this, Robert looked at Chen Xiansong and saw that he didn't have any bad reactions, so he continued: "Your Excellency is very young, and Lord Udier is also very optimistic about you, he thinks that you will definitely occupy an important position in the association in the future, but you and Ms. Bai Min seem to be too close, which may cause dissatisfaction among the senior management of the association!" ”

Chen Xiansong was stunned for a moment, pondered the other party's words carefully for a while, and then he was surprised: "You mean...... Do you think Min is a member of the Temple of the Sun? ”

Robert was taken aback: "Isn't it?" How is this possible, apart from the Sun God Servant, who else has such terrifying strength at such a young age. ”

Chen Xiansong chuckled: "Don't worry, Xiao Min is not a powerful person, and she has nothing to do with any country, she is just my relative, that's all." I appreciate Your Excellency's concern, and I have bothered you. ”

Robert wasn't sure that what Chen Xiansong said was true, but he could only believe it, at least on the surface.

On the hillside at the head of the village, Aslan let out a long sigh as he looked at the newly relocated residents who were busy building wooden sheds not far away. In the evening, the night seemed a little dark, just like his mood at the moment. An old man with a cane walked slowly next to him, he bent his thin waist, looked at the situation in the distance with Aslan, and said after a while: "Big nephew, are you still thinking about the farmland question raised by those two little guys?" ”

Aslan nodded: "Yes, we don't want to do it, but they can find people who are willing to do it, second uncle, you see, those people are just poor people now, but I believe that they will definitely live better than anyone in our village in the future, I remember that the sun god servant often said that the opportunity is fleeting, if you can't grasp it, you will regret it for a lifetime." ”

The old man, who was the second uncle, said lightly: "But the Sun God Servant also said that stability is the foundation of everything. Those two little guys, I admit that they look very aristocratic, and I believe that they are nobles, but I don't believe that they can be better than those of us who have been digging in the fields for decades. ”

Aslan said, "But he's a soul-thinker, maybe he has a way." ”

"The soul thinker is also a human being, and he also needs the accumulation of knowledge, if he is over forty years old, I believe it, but no matter how he thinks about it, he is at most fifteen or sixteen years old, about the same age as little Alex." The second uncle said lightly: "Let them get it first, if it doesn't work, we have no loss, if it does, we will imitate it, he is Alex's teacher, there is no reason not to teach his students this knowledge." ”

Aslan sighed and didn't speak again, but he thought in his heart: Xiao Song is Alex's teacher, but we rejected him once, don't trust him, what will he think. You also said that the other party is also a human being, as long as it is a human being, it will hold a grudge, even if it does not hold a grudge, it will remember this matter, and I feel guilty, once it is done in the future, we will get together again, what is it? Wall grass swaying in the wind?

Aslan wanted to say this, but the second uncle was his elder after all. These words in his heart are a little harsh, if it is too big, not small, no difference between young and old, yes, he can only sigh, and then worry.

Robert had a good meal at Chen Xiansong's, and when he came out to see that most of the newly moved poor people had lived in the newly built simple wooden shacks, he had nothing to do, so he took a few construction workers back to Heitu City. ,

In the Soul Ponderers Association, Robert told Udil in detail about the conversation he had with Chen Xiansong not long ago, and the latter frowned: "Robert, you didn't do this well, who let you make your own decisions and say these things to Xiao Song." ”

Robert's face was shocked, and he lowered his head: "It's Meng Lang." ”

"Forget it, that's fine, at least we know that the woman who said Xiao Song has nothing to do with the Sun Temple." Udir said with a curious expression: "I didn't expect that besides them, there are people who can cultivate such a powerful woman. The power behind Xiao Song looks quite profound. ”

Robert continued: "Since the founding of the Aurora Kingdom, it has been two thousand years, although it is not as good as the three thousand years of history of the Solomon Dynasty, but it is not too bad, at least it is stronger than our Kate Kingdom, and there are several big families with long-standing roots in it, it should not be a strange thing." ”

Udir nodded, agreeing with his subordinate's opinion, and then he suddenly smiled: "You seem to be eating happily at Xiao Song's place, I see that your stomach is propped up." ”

Robert's face turned red: "The food made by Ms. Bai Min is quite delicious, much better than that in the lord's mansion." In addition, His Excellency Chen Xiansong is also very enthusiastic, and I ate a lot without paying attention. Bai Min's cooking skills have been inherited from the New Human Era, and after figuring out the flavors and colors of the animals and plants of this era, cooking is a very simple thing for her, even if she doesn't have a lot of seasonings, she can use the original taste of food to make a series of high-quality dishes.

Robert has no other hobbies, that is, he loves food, and under the temptation of food, he actually forgot the pressure brought to him by Bai Min and ate his mouth.

Udir laughed: "You have always been picky in this regard, you say it is delicious, absolutely true." It seems that if I have the chance, I will also be a guest at Xiao Song's place. ”
