Ji Xian thought about it and agreed.

A good house first and foremost needs a good designer.

But where can you find such a designer now?

After thinking it over, Ji Xian decided to go to a big city again when he had time to look for it there.

The first thing to do now is to settle these slaves in the vicinity.

Ji Xian asked Li Youmi to help arrange accommodation for these slaves.

There are many buildings around, many of which are still intact and habitable.

Although there may be safety risks, we have no choice but to make do with this for now.

Later, those who understand architecture will be allowed to demolish, rebuild, and renovate on their own.

Ji Xian and Xia Luoxue returned home to check how much food they had left.

There was still more than half a bag of rice in the kitchen.

Ji Xian said, "Let's make them some porridge."

Ji Xian naturally wouldn't do the cooking of porridge himself.

Let Xia Luoxue carry the rice sack and then go find Li Lianfang.

Li Lianfang and Li Youmi had already settled the slaves in a simple manner. Ji Xian told her to find two people she trusted and set up a pot to cook porridge.

Li Lianfang was startled.

Are these slaves allowed to eat normal food?

This would have been unimaginable in the past.

She quickly found two people and had them set up the pot.

Li Lianfang had saved the lives of these two men. They were both thin and thin. One was named Seventeen and the other was named Twenty-One. The reason their names were so strange was because they had always been slaves. To make it easier to manage them, Black Snake gave them numbers. Once they got used to the numbers, their original names no longer mattered. A name was just a code, and nobody cared.

Ji Xian and Xia Luoxue had been living in this ruined city for some time, and finding two large iron pots in the city was not difficult.

Soon the iron pot was set up, and Seventeen and Twenty-One added water to it, their expressions somber.

After all, their new owner has a terrible temper. He gave them a hard time as soon as they met, and electrocuted them half to death.

They thought they had nothing to eat and that their new owners were just telling them to boil water to fill their stomachs.

How can water possibly be enough to satisfy thirst?

They were bitter inside, with too many complaints, but dared not speak out, lest they anger the new owner and suffer further undeserved disaster, which would be a greater loss than gain.

Just when they were in despair, Xia Luoxue placed a bag of rice beside them.
