Chapter 58 City Lord
Jiang Mian can only say that no one is perfect.
This guy has a sharp tongue, but he doesn't seem to have a bad heart.
Now there is someone who can give her the answer, so it would be a waste not to ask.
"Are all healers forced to be assigned tasks?" Jiang Mian asked after thinking for a while.
She actually didn't want to complete a specific purification task every day like in the original owner's memory.
When women awaken their healing powers, it’s like getting a stable job in the empire.
Based on the level of awakened healing power, the Empire will allocate houses, beast slaves, and jobs.
The higher the level of healing power, the better the house, the better the beast slaves and jobs assigned to you, and the higher the salary.
Jiang Mian didn’t know how good the conditions were that were assigned to other people with higher levels of healing ability.
She only knew that after the original owner awakened the F-level healing power, the empire only assigned her a job at the small purification center on the desolate planet where she lived. She had no house, no animal slaves, and her salary was just enough to make ends meet.
However, in the original owner's memory, her neighbor awakened the B-level purification power, so the empire allocated housing, work and beast slaves on the Imperial Capital Star to the other party.
It directly leaped from a small broken star to the glorious and prosperous imperial capital star.
"Here in Baicheng, as long as the healing level is above E, those at F level won't be accepted. After all, there are fewer healers here, unlike other planets where there are many healers. If everyone at F level purifies a little every day, they can achieve the effect of E level." Lin Xuan glanced at Jiang Mian, "If you are at F level, you won't be assigned tasks, and naturally you won't get any preferential treatment, let alone come here every Sunday to eat delicious food and have dinner."
"Is that so?" Jiang Mian nodded thoughtfully.
She would control her healing level to F. After all, she didn't like having to purify a certain amount of food and meet certain targets every day like it was a job.
"So what is your healing ability level?" Lin Xuan asked again.
"F." Jiang Mian now gives himself an F.
"How can you, an F, have so much money to live next to me, a C or above?" Lin Xuan looked puzzled.
"Oh, maybe I don't rely on healing powers to make a living." Jiang Mian smiled slightly, "I have other ways to make money."
Lin Xuan was choked for a moment.
"Okay, newcomers can get a free late-night meal once," Lin Xuan said slowly. "You won't get an invitation next time."
Jiang Mian didn't really care about this.
When the two men walked into the villa, they saw that there were already many women there.
Jiang Mian estimated that there were about twenty healers. He didn't expect that there were so few healers in a city. However, when he thought about the fact that this was the Exile Star, he could understand it.
Everyone went to an instrument for testing.
After the people who had completed the test had their optical computers recognized by the urban system, they went to the backyard to have dinner.
The urban system will also automatically send various welfare notifications to their computers.
Jiang Mian discovered that the highest grade was only 3C, and there was only one 3C, three 2Cs, and no B-grade ones.
No wonder Lin Xuan is so arrogant. Among the three 2Cs, she is one of them. She can really walk sideways in Baicheng.
Soon it was Jiang Mian's turn. Under her intentional control, she successfully detected the F level. However, the F level did not need to do anything, nor did she need to go to the urban system for identification like other people.
Jiang Mian and Lin Xuan walked into the backyard together. The backyard was filled with various snacks and foods, and people could pick them up freely, just like a buffet.
She sat quietly in a place and ate delicious food.
Because there is no fresh food to buy here and food is scarce, Jiang Mian has been drinking nutritional supplements these days.
So now when Jiang Mian eats delicious and fresh food, he feels a little regretful. If he becomes a healer here, he can come here to enjoy delicious food once a week!
But now that things have come to this, there is nothing to worry about.
Lin Xuan has gone to play with her friends.
Jiang Mian just strolled around and ate casually, and respectful and slightly joyful voices sounded in the distance.
"Lord City Lord!"
"Meet the Lord City Lord."
"Is the Lord City Lord feeling better today?"
…
A handsome and gentle young man in a black suit and a white shirt walked out of the villa.
Black hair, black beads, extremely pale skin, black and white that are extremely distinct and bright, like a thick stroke of ink on an ink painting.
He smiled slightly with his lips curled up, his temperament was calm, and he seemed to carry a classical charm that had been precipitated by time.
"My health has always been like this, so you don't have to worry." Zhou Qing just curled his lips slightly, his eyebrows and eyes were gentle and tender.
But the next second, his brows furrowed slightly, and he took out a piece of pure white silk from his pocket, covered his lips and coughed softly: "Cough cough cough..."
"Lord City Lord, you need to have a good rest." The woman said worriedly.
"Yes, Lord City Lord, you have always been in poor health. It will be difficult for you to find a wife in this state." The woman also spoke.
More than twenty women gathered around.
In order not to seem out of place, Jiang Mian also went over to watch the fun.
"Thank you for your concern." The young man's voice was light and pleasant, with a clean and refreshing voice. "I have received your kindness."
The dark eyes were tinged with a faint smile.
"Lord City Lord, when will the expansion be carried out? It feels like the city is getting more and more crowded."
“Funds are currently insufficient.”
"Lord City Lord, there are always fights in the sub-district, and they disturb the residents in the middle of the night. I wonder if you can take care of it?"
"I'll take a look behind."
…
More than twenty women surrounded the young man and offered their opinions, but the young man did not show any impatience.
Finally, after there were no more questions, the young man slowly spoke: "Everyone, enjoy your dinner."
He spoke in a light voice, slowly and gently, "Ahem, I'm not feeling well, so I won't stay here."
"Hey, Lord City Lord, you should go and have a good rest."
"It's so windy here, it's better to go back to the house."
…
Jiang Mian just watched the handsome city lord leave his sight. The city lord seemed quite friendly.
However, being able to manage a city well does require some strength.
"Alright, stop looking. They've all left." Lin Xuan's voice rang out beside Jiang Mian. "The City Lord is so glamorous and glorious, it's not something we can even dream of."
Jiang Mian:......
She didn't have any desire for it.
"The City Lord is handsome, but too old-fashioned and boring. Not my type," Lin Xuan said slowly. "I've been exiled here and lived in his White City for three years. I've seen him strolling along the city's green belt almost every evening, playing the erhu, drinking health tea, and practicing Tai Chi. If it weren't for that face, I'd have thought he was some old man."
Jiang Mian chuckled when he heard the erhu being played: "Does the City Lord play the erhu well?"
"The erhu is a thousand-year-old antique. If I hadn't seen him playing it, I wouldn't have searched for it and found out it's called an erhu." Lin Xuan said with a slight twitch of her lips. "He plays it pretty well. It's not bad at all."
