Chapter 170 Daliang Laiwu Town

"The merit of following the dragon?"

"Um"

"The dynasty changed and the country changed. The contributions of those who followed the emperor and assisted him must have been great, but it is hard to say how great the merits were."

"Some acted for their own selfish interests, while others worked for the common people of the world. Both had contributions to the founding of a nation, but their merits were certainly different."

Qin Lang thought for a while and talked about his understanding in a realistic way.

Tu Huan listened to Qin Lang's words and thought they made a lot of sense, so she nodded and said, "That's right."

Qin Lang leaned forward and asked curiously, "What are you researching recently?"

In fact, Qin Lang already knew from his good friend Xie Huailou that Tu Huan's main job was painting, but the person involved never introduced it, so he must have pretended not to know.

To avoid embarrassment to each other.

Tu Huan said, "I didn't do anything, just studied some ancient historical materials."

"Oh, if there's anything I can help with, just ask."

"Okay, thank you."

"You're welcome. Aren't we friends now?" Qin Lang said this to bring the two closer.

"Where is the research going?"

Qin Lang took a sip of coffee and asked curiously again.

Tu Huan thought for a moment and said, "We've just come to the point of studying the imperial seal." She didn't say much else.

Qin Lang nodded and said, "Actually, there's no need to delve too deeply into this. The succession of dynasties in ancient times couldn't have been achieved with just an imperial seal. The fundamental problem lies in the contradictions surrounding people's livelihood." After a pause, he tentatively asked, "Are you studying this for work?"

Work?

"Escorting" the Xie family to Laozhou safely should... be considered her system job, right?

She nodded.

"Well, for work." After saying that, he seemed to remember something and added, "I usually draw."

"Oh, a painter!" Qin Lang looked as if he had suddenly realized something.

This time, he can talk more about related topics.

"Preparing ancient themes?"

"I guess so." Tu Huan nodded.

Qin Lang took a sip of coffee, curious about what she was going to create. "What are you not sure about?"

He was quite cautious in his words when he said this, and it didn't seem like he was probing into her privacy, but it also hit the point that Tu Huan was struggling with at the moment.

By grasping the fundamental problem, Qin Lang thought that he could gradually get closer to Tu Huan through a small matter.

This opportunity is rare.

For no reason, the other party would definitely have no impression of him, but if he could help Miss Tu a little, the two of them could re-establish a new sense of trust.

Qin Lang's patience is getting better and better as he interacts with people frequently.

Tu Huan looked calm.

Qin Lang asked her what she was not sure about, and she didn't know how to answer.

If Xie Yuchuan wanted to start a new business, she was actually not sure about everything.

But this kind of certainty does not refer to things like supplies or protection, but she is actually not very sure. In the world of Daliang Dynasty, how much interference is she allowed to make?

However, even if Qin Lang explained this, he still didn't understand.

So Tu Huan casually changed the subject. Seeing that she avoided a deeper discussion, Qin Lang was very tactful and did not ask any further questions.

I introduced her to a documentary I had recently watched: "You could take a quick look at it."

Tu Huan took note of it.

She had a vague feeling that because of Xie Yuchuan's somewhat "bold" ideas, she might need to supplement a lot of relevant knowledge.

During their first conversation, the two didn't have much to talk about. Before parting, Qin Lang gave her a business card.

"There's a small exhibition going on at Tianxiang Pavilion on Zhenbao Street tomorrow. If Miss Tu is interested, why not come and have a look? There should be some good things to see."

Tu Huan hesitated for a moment and took the business card.

For her, it's good to have the opportunity to broaden her horizons.

Qin Lang took the initiative to show his goodwill, and she kept it in mind.

The two separated at the shopping mall. Qin Lang left first, and Tu Huan walked around the mall for a while, bought some things, and then went home.

The documentary introduced by Qin Lang is good, about the historical evolution and people's livelihood issues in ancient border towns.

Tu Huan sat on the sofa with snacks, potato chips and beer, and became fascinated by the show.

How come she hadn't discovered this thing before and found it so interesting to talk about?

The system didn't give any new progress notifications the entire day. After watching one film, Tu Huan looked for another one of a related theme and ate bag after bag of potato chips. It was not until 10:30 in the evening that Tu Huan finally opened her phone and checked Xie Yuchuan's WeChat to see if there was any new message.

In the dialog box, there were only a few messages that she couldn't send after she came back.

The system cannot be urged, and it is useless to urge it at this time.

"I hope Xie Yuchuan doesn't have any trouble these two days." Tu Huan murmured while staring at the phone.

Now that she was back, Tu Huan decided to go to bed early tonight and go to work and replenish the supplies tomorrow morning.

Laiwu Town, Daliang.

After a long and arduous day's journey, the exiles finally entered the city before the gates closed.

Compared with the terrifying day in Songjiang Town, the exile team's entry into Laiwu City was very smooth.

The government official in charge of the reception did not make things too difficult and all the procedures were carried out according to the rules.

In order to facilitate this rare "large" team, the officials of Laiwu specially ordered their clerks to inform several familiar inns.

The place introduced by the government is neither good nor bad. It is spacious and slightly remote, so it is relatively quiet.

It will not affect the lives of the people in the town and they can have a good rest.

Xiong Jiushan didn't expect this.

The officials of Laiwu were busy running around without even offering any explicit or implicit benefits.

The leaders of the escorts gathered together and were all a little surprised.

"The atmosphere in Laiwu government office is completely different from before." Someone sighed.

Among all the days since we set out, today is the most relaxing day for everyone.

Xiong Jiushan had nothing much to say, he just asked everyone to do their jobs well and not make any mistakes.

Get a good night's rest without getting anxious or upset.

Before Xiong Jiushan led the team across Panlongling, he needed such an opportunity to relax physically and mentally.

Hundreds of fugitives were placed in several nearby inns by officers and soldiers. This time, for some reason, Xiong Jiushan relaxed many of the requirements and asked the officers to inform the fugitives that those in need could improve their accommodation conditions by themselves.

Several neighboring inns took over the work of the government office and no longer received outside guests.

The shopkeeper and the kitchen staff were all waiting to take care of these exiled prisoners.

There is food and drink.

It depends on what they want?

Xiong Jiushan opened a separate room for rest. The farther away from the capital, the more relaxed the guards became. As long as no major problems occurred before leaving the country, everyone would feel more at ease after leaving.

When the convicts learned that the officials had shown mercy, those who could afford it contributed money to improve their food.

This opportunity is rare.

In contrast to their previous low-key approach, this time the Xie family took the lead in taking out money and selecting a few guest rooms.

Seeing what the Xie family did, other families followed suit and spent money to book guest rooms to rest.

If we follow the Xie family, we won’t go wrong.

At least that's what the Chai family thinks.

The Chai family chose two rooms not far from the Xie family, separate for men and women.
