Chapter 9



The eyes are beautifully shaped, with the tails curled up, and the black eyelashes are thick and long.

But the eyeball in the middle, which is clearly black and white, looks very clean and transparent, with a gentle and calm gaze, revealing a bit of childishness. This complexity and contradiction interweaves into an unusual magnificence.

"…Um, I'm a salesperson at Xinhua Bookstore. What kind of books do you want to buy? Maybe I can help you find them."

Pei Manning thought for a moment, then wrote, "I want to buy some books on laws."

Yuan Weicheng looked at her in surprise. He didn't expect her to buy such an unpopular book. Nowadays, few people come to the bookstore to buy such books. "There are a lot of books on law. Which one do you want to buy?"

A lot? Pei Manning was a little hesitant. She also knew how much she could buy with the money she had, so she wrote, "Then what about the laws on household registration?"

Pei Manning's father was familiar with the court laws and regulations and used loopholes in them to make money. He was familiar with the local customs and habits, the party disputes among court officials, and the complicated relationships among local officials. He was good at getting along with everyone and was very good at dealing with people.

He said that if you want to use it, you must understand it, and if you want to avoid it, you must also understand it.

Now that she thought about it, it was not without reason that her father had accumulated a huge fortune in just a few years.

Pei Manning had no intention of making a profit, he just wanted to know if there was any way to get a household registration as soon as possible? Violating the laws here would not stand up to scrutiny.

Yuan Weicheng spent a while to identify her handwriting, and then took her to the second floor.

"These are all about the household registration system. In recent days,

Too many people are migrating to the cities, and directives have been issued to control the flow of rural labor."

"This Household Registration Ordinance stipulates the details of household registration, migration, cancellation, marriage, adoption, and illegal liability. This one is about reducing the population of towns..."

"Also, this is to streamline the city's population and allow some workers to return home..."

He gave a brief introduction and described the emphasis of each book in detail.

Pei Manning listened to him patiently and carefully, then took out the household registration regulations, flipped through two pages, and wrote in the notebook: "How much is this?"

"Ah? Do you want to buy one? Our Xinhua Bookstore provides free reading. You can sit next to us and read slowly." Many people do this. It is also cheap to buy a book now, so Xinhua Bookstore always has a lot of books every day.

Pei Manning thought about how little money she had left and was a little worried about whether it would be enough. After all, the book was very thick. When she heard him say this, she nodded.

"Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yuan, what are you doing? Come over and move these books over." Someone shouted downstairs.

"I'm coming," Yuan Weicheng replied, and then said to Pei Manning, "Comrade, I'm going to be busy first. If you have anything, just let me know. Oh, by the way, I'm Yuan Weicheng."

Having said that, Yuan Weicheng hurried downstairs.

The book was too thick, with many unfamiliar words and some simplified characters that had changed a lot. Pei Manning guessed and only read the registration details at the beginning before it was getting dark.

With a sigh, Pei Manning packed up her things and prepared to leave.

She was afraid of being suspected, so she dared not say too much or ask too much. She could only use this clumsy way to understand the world nine hundred years later.

At night, Pei Manning had nowhere to go, so she could stay in the hospital.

She wandered around the county town until she found a remote and deserted place. After making sure that there was no one around, she entered the space.

Since the opening of the Xumi Border, Pei Manning often went to the farm to escape the summer heat, and she put a lot of things in it one after another. This time, in order to go to Chongzhou in the northwest, she prepared a lot of food, clothing and daily necessities.

The pearl rice, rouge rice, green glutinous rice, black rice, purple rice, glutinous rice, flour and rice flour produced on the farm cost 500 rubles, chestnuts, pine nuts, hazelnuts, almonds, walnuts, dried mushrooms, red dates cost 200 rubles each, mung beans, red beans, soybeans, black beans, and wolfberries cost 5 rubles each, and seeds of various vegetables and fruits cost 1 ruble.

In addition, there are peaches, pears, plums, persimmons, grapes, melons... all kinds of fruit candied fruit. When she has time, she also makes a lot of long-lasting

Pastries.

There were restrictions in the Xumi Realm, so she could only go to a house, a few acres of land, a stream, and to the high mountains shrouded in mist in the distance.

Therefore, she never planted fruit trees on those acres of land for fear of taking up space. She only learned a little farming from the old farmer and planted some vegetables and flowers.

She had been worried about food and drink before, but she accidentally discovered that the vegetables grown in the Xumi Realm were particularly delicious, and even the flowers were particularly beautiful, so she started to grow things here.

It's just that at that time she liked to make this place beautiful, and there were far more places for growing flowers than for growing vegetables.

Pei Manning changed into casual clothes and dug out flowers from several acres of land, not wanting to throw them away. These were the raw materials for her jade cream, rouge, peach blossom powder, and cardamom incense, and they were very valuable, so she transplanted them around the house.

Only half an hour had passed and blisters had formed on the palms of her two delicate hands. Her skin was very thin to begin with, and the slightest prick would break it, letting out the yellow fluid inside.

Pei Manning cried in pain. She applied some medicine powder, covered both legs with a handkerchief, and planted some vegetable seeds on the empty land.

She forgot to write down the names when she collected them, and she didn't know what she was planting.

After cleaning up three-quarters of the land, Pei Manning raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead, held his waist, panting, and felt that his waist was his own.

Pei Manning filled a wooden bucket with half the stream water and... lifted it up!

꺗 poured out half of it, picked up a small bucket of water and poured it into the big pot in the kitchen. After going back and forth several times, Pei Manning finally filled the big pot, and 꿗 began to boil water in a hurry.

There was no spark in the tinderbox any longer, and she fiddled with the flint and the chisel for half an hour before she finally managed to ignite the tinder.

Although the kitchen didn't catch fire after this incident, her face had turned into a cat.

After taking a nice and brisk bath, Pei Manning was so tired that she fell asleep immediately. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt her whole body relaxed, and even her waist, arms, and heart didn't hurt so much anymore.
