Chapter 200: The Unapproachable
"Erya, no one is lost, right?"
"Everybody's here! Just keep an eye on the front. β
"There's a sign at this intersection, I'll seeβthis symbol is where we're going, right?"
"Big sister, go this way!"
In order not to let everyone get separated, after entering the city, Luo gently asked the villagers to hold each other's clothes in two rows, and walk slowly against the street. The children circled around the front and back of the team, acting as "overseers". The group of more than 60 people has also become the focus of passers-by's attention, and there are all talkers and teasers, but no one has ever come up to trouble them.
Under the guidance of maps and street signs, it didn't take much time for the group to find what the girl called the "Jinxia City Comprehensive Affairs Bureau".
There are noticeably more people here.
Luo gently found a corner for everyone to squeeze together, planning to investigate the situation first.
However, before she could get close to the door of the office, she suddenly heard a very familiar voice.
Even on a noisy street, the sound was still vivid to her.
"Do you want to come to farm? Yes, the East Coast Experimental Field is recruiting, and the pay is very high, but a screening test is required!"
"Who does Tian belong to? Her Royal Highness Princess Tian Gui. However, you have the right to use it, and the harvest for three years is tax-free. Yes, you heard it right, not only do you not have to pay taxes, but the office also pays you β as long as you do farm as required. β
"Want to try? Yes, Xiaolin, take this to the third station to register!"
The surging emotions suddenly rushed to his heart, and Luo couldn't help but cover his mouth lightly - not for anything else, but for fear that he would choke up.
Among the hundreds of disciples of their generation, there are only a few who are very familiar with them, and the closest one is Luo You'er.
At the beginning, it was Luo Youer who found her first.
Troublesome, talkative, and overly pestering were her initial thoughts. There are even some people who talk about each other behind their backs, just because they want to cling to their own title of genius in Youzhou.
Later, Luo gradually got used to the existence of the annoying little junior sister.
She could see that the other party was so natural and not as unbearable as the discussants behind her could say. Sometimes she would even tease Luo Youer when she was tired to relieve her pressure.
It was only after putting on the shackles that Lo gently locked the memories of the past into the depths of her mind, and she did a good job along the way, so much so that she had the illusion that she could handle it all well before her goal was achieved.
As it turned out, she couldn't have been more wrong.
The moment she saw Luo You'er, her suppressed thoughts instantly broke away from all shackles? That green qi was like the other party's person? Lively and vibrant, people couldn't help but want to pinch her face? Listen to her slurred muttering of resistance.
Now that Luo Tang and Luo Changtian are gone, when she also falls asleep, Luo Youer is probably the only Luo family who still remembers her.
It took a great deal of perseverance on his part to resist the urge to step forward.
How much she wanted to hold Luo You'er's cheek and pull her in front of her to take a closer look, to see what she had become now, instead of looking from afar like now, and all that came into her eyes was only a vague outline.
After a while, Luo gently retreated into the villagers.
"How's it going, did you ask anything?" asked everyone with concern.
"I ...... It was found that they had arranged for a special person to guide the handling of the matter. So Ado, can you call someone for me?"
"Got it!"
"Why don't you call someone by the way?" Erhu looked at her puzzled, always feeling that her voice seemed a little strange, "That...... Big sister, are you okay?"
"Nothing, just seeing a former acquaintance. Luo said softly.
Shouldn't you be happy to see an acquaintance, right? Erhu saw that her interest was a little low, and he didn't ask any more questions, but he attributed it to the strange habits of the people in the city.
Soon, Ah Duo brought a "guide".
It's also a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.
"I heard someone say at the dock that if you want to move to Jinxia City, you just need to register with the bureau?" Luo asked with a slight sigh of relief. The...... Her Royal Highness Princess Guangping, I don't think I will ask about specific affairs, right? Can something like a deed be valid without being confirmed by the government?"
"You're not the first person to worry about this. "The other party laughed?" Do you know that Jinxia City was attacked by a sea of pirates before, and the people of the official mansion went to the empty building, and in the end, it was only by Her Royal Highness the Princess and the Privy Council that the thieves were exterminated, so even if you want to find the official mansion, it is estimated that you will not find anyone to do it for a while. β
"Raid by the pirates?" said Duo Ye, "Is there such a risk in this city?"
Luo frowned slightly, she had never heard of the Qiguo border guards being harassed by pirates in the past ten years.
"It was the collusion between the Wang family and the thieves that caused this disaster, and under normal circumstances, they couldn't even climb the city wall. But you don't have to worry too much, Her Royal Highness said, but all the residents who suffer losses will be compensated in equal amounts. My family's old house was burned down, and now I live in a newly built house in the office. β
"The house burned down and made up for it?"
"Yes. The house burned to make up the house, and the grain burned to make up the grain. The government should ensure the basic livelihood of the people in a place, which is what Lord Xia often says. The guide spoke quickly.
Luo's heart moved slightly, "Who is Lord Xia?"
"It's the Privy Council's Command Department that is engaged in Lord Xia Fan, and this bureau was also established by him. Ah, by the way......" the girl clapped her hands, "He just received the commendation of being promoted to Hundred Blades a few days ago for the extermination of the Haikou, and he can be regarded as the head of the Privy Council." β
Really......
These strange changes were all tossed by him.
Luo couldn't help but sigh lightly, in a few months, he had actually climbed from the newly promoted eighth rank to the top of the first mansion, this promotion speed can be described as unprecedented, no wonder the palace would think that he hugged the princess's thigh.
It's a pity that these people don't think about it, so many princesses in history have been divided, and their followers are like carp crossing the river, how many can do it like him?
"When I got off the boat, I seemed to see that there were rules around the dock, could it be that this has something to do with the bureau?"
"My sister is really insightful. The other party raised his mouth and smiled, "Because this Haikou has a close relationship with the East China Sea Gang, after the attack on the city, Lord Xia dealt a heavy hand to the gangs in the city. Not to mention the ban on all dock gangs, the loading and unloading of past ships and the transportation of goods have all been taken over by the Bureau, and the former members of the dock gang want to get a piece of the pie, so they can only honestly come to us to register and audit, and if they violate the rules again, they will have to accept punishment. β
Using hard power on the surface to crack down on gang forms, and at the same time cutting off the causes of gang formation at the root, this method is not at all like a newcomer's approach. Luo sighed softly, if it was up to her to figure out a way, it would be difficult to do better.
It's a guy who knows a little bit about everything.
It seems that the promotion did not change him.
He was still the one who made a deep impression on him when he was in Qingshan Town.
Luo closed his eyes lightly so that he could leave in peace.
