Chapter 367: Within our capabilities

This wait took quite a while. The person who brought Qin Xiangnuan here put her here and then left.

But when he came back again, he still saw Qin Xiangnuan there.

"Third Miss." This person not only had no ill will towards Qin Xiangnuan, but also admired her very much.

Qin Xiangnuan raised the corner of her mouth slightly and nodded to him.

"The master hasn't come out yet?" The man turned around and glanced at the closed door. He had just knocked on the door to inform Qin Xiangnuan that she was here, and the official also responded.

He had not expected that the officials had not come out to welcome Qin Xiangnuan in yet, but considering the officials' complicated feelings towards Qin Xiangnuan's arrival, it seemed that treating Qin Xiangnuan like this was not unexpected.

"Why don't I go ask again." The man whispered to Qin Xiangnuan and turned away.

Qin Xiangnuan tried to stop him but failed, so she followed him forward a few steps.

Before they reached the door, it was slowly opened.

The person who opened the door was the official. He looked up and saw Qin Xiangnuan first. Because he knew her coming in advance, he just glanced at her and then calmly looked away.

Qin Xiangnuan stood where she was, her eyes passing over the official and falling on the man behind him who was dressed in casual clothes but looked out of place here.

"Sir." The man just saluted and didn't know how to address the person behind the official.

When his eyes met that person, he casually looked away, but the other person had an arrogant air, so the yamen runner could not help but lower his head, feeling a little at a loss.

Qin Xiangnuan stood aside, nodded to the official as a greeting, and did not look at the man again.

The other party didn't take Qin Xiangnuan and the yamen runner seriously at all. He glanced at them with subtle disdain and said to the official, "Think carefully about what I said today. I'll wait for your reply tomorrow."

"Yes, sir, take care. I'll see you out." The official respectfully escorted the man out.

When the official came back, he straightened his back. He didn't even stop when passing Qin Xiangnuan. He left a sentence "Please come in, Third Miss" and walked towards the room he had just stepped out of.

Qin Xiangnuan followed him in and saw the desk covered with papers. The official did not try to cover it up after Qin Xiangnuan came in.

"Please take a seat, Miss Three." The official pointed to the armchair behind Qin Xiangnuan.

Qin Xiangnuan suppressed the strangeness in her heart. The official was too polite to her today.

"What brings you here today, Miss San?" the official asked.

Qin Xiangnuan raised her eyes and first told the officials about the current prosperity of the market, and mentioned the things Qin Feng and others had brought back.

Finally, Qin Xiangnuan spoke up, "So I want to take the things we have here and send them out. I think we can transform the place in a few years."

The official's reaction to Qin Xiangnuan's words was somewhat cold from beginning to end, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

But he did listen to it.

Before Qin Xiangnuan came, she wanted to get straight to the point, but after seeing the man just now, she changed her approach. While speaking, she kept paying attention to the official's reaction, but it was obvious that Qin Xiangnuan's eloquence did not work.

Such a reaction made Qin Xiangnuan gradually have a guess in her mind.

There was a sudden reshuffle in the yamen, and it seemed that the official was about to be replaced. However, what the man said before leaving today made Qin Xiangnuan feel that the official might be promoted.

"Third Miss, what you said is too far-fetched." The official listened quietly to Qin Xiangnuan's long speech and said expressionlessly.

Qin Xiangnuan's eyes flickered as she continued, "Your Excellency has been at the border for quite a while, right?"

"Yes, so long that I have forgotten how many years it has been." The official said after a moment of silence.

"Then you should know that two or three years is not a long time. What's more, after two or three years, the scenery will be completely different, and you don't have to live in such poverty." Qin Xiangnuan said.

The official did not directly deny Qin Xiangnuan just now, so Qin Xiangnuan's speculation that the official was going to leave was overturned. That's fine, just find a way to convince the official.

"It's too late." The official said in a low voice.

Qin Xiangnuan frowned. Too late? What could happen? Why did he say too late?

The official obviously had no intention of explaining to Qin Xiangnuan.

"Third Miss, your idea is very good. You can give it a try, but I advise you not to worry too much about the results." The official said this as he saw Qin Xiangnuan off.

Qin Xiangnuan received the attitude from the official that she could do whatever she wanted. Anyway, he would not be involved, so it didn't matter what result Qin Xiangnuan could produce.

"Nuannuan, what are you thinking about?"

After Qin Xiangnuan came out of the government office, she arrived at the place where she had agreed to meet with Li Yuran, but the other party had not arrived yet.

When Li Yuran arrived at this place, he felt that Qin Xiangnuan was a little absent-minded, so he leaned close to her eyes and asked her softly.

Qin Xiangnuan's eyelids moved, and her eyes gradually focused after meeting Li Yuran's gaze.

"You're here." Qin Xiangnuan said.

Li Yu Ran nodded and sat beside her, but his head was still tilted towards her, and asked again.

Qin Xiangnuan herself has not come to a conclusion yet, so she is not in a position to tell others about her guesses.

"I need to think about it again." Qin Xiangnuan blinked.

Then, turning her head, Qin Xiangnuan asked Li Yuran, "Why did you ask me out today?"

"I've been thinking a lot at home these days." Seeing that Qin Xiangnuan didn't want to talk, Li Yuran didn't ask any more questions and told her the result of his thoughts over the past few days.

"Nuannuan, I also want to do something big like you." Li Yuran was initially attracted to Qin Xiangnuan, wasn't it because he envied Qin Xiangnuan for doing many things that ordinary people couldn't do?

Qin Xiangnuan listened to Li Yuran's words and sighed secretly. The things she did did indeed cause great changes in people's cognition or life, but they were all within her ability and could be done in an ordinary way.

"Yu Ran, maybe you think I have no right to say these words." Qin Xiangnuan's voice floated into Li Yu Ran's ears.

"I know what you mean, but there is no distinction between big and small things. You used to think of yourself as a young lady, but obviously you don't think so now. You have this idea." Qin Xiangnuan said.

Li Yuran thought about what Qin Xiangnuan said and agreed with it.

"Nuannuan, what do you think I can do?" Li Yuran asked.

Qin Xiangnuan didn't answer her question directly. Instead, she asked, "Do you think what the people in the fields are doing is a big deal? Do you think what the vendors in the market are doing is a big deal?"

Li Yuran thought for a moment and then shook his head. "Although you said there's no big or small distinction between things, I don't think what they did was big or small."

"Why not?" Qin Xiangnuan asked.

Li Yu Ran thought that this was not an obvious thing?

"They are just doing boring and repetitive work, but all I want is to help others like you!"
