After listening to what Xu Wei said, Si Muqiao couldn't help but nodded heavily.
It seems that the dog tyrant is not only swift and decisive, but also meticulous and has thought of all these trivial matters.
In addition to solving various current problems, Murong Qingli also took the opportunity to rectify the order and atmosphere of Guozhou City.
Especially the rule that anyone found to be a cannibal must be killed without mercy, which made Si Muqiao and Xu Xiaotang breathe a sigh of relief unconsciously.
Drought does exist and has indeed affected too many people, causing them to suffer from hunger.
What’s worse, many people starved to death.
But these are not excuses or reasons for some people to lose their moral ethics and secretly eat people.
"I'll go change my clothes and then go to the gate of the prefect's residence to register." Si Muqiao said and went into the house.
Not long after, she came out of the house dressed in men's clothes and carrying a small medicine box.
"Sister, what should I do?" Xu Xiaotang asked again.
It doesn't make sense that after being rescued, she would do nothing but eat and drink for free all day.
"How about you wash my clothes and clean the house?"
"By the way, I will teach you a few more words. Before I come back, you must write every word I teach you a hundred times."
"Okay." Xu Xiaotang nodded.
Si Muqiao brought Xu Xiaotang back to the house, spread out a piece of paper, took out a pen, and wrote ten words on the paper.
Look up and be worthy of heaven; look down and be worthy of people.
After writing, she taught Xu Xiaotang the pronunciation of the ten words, and then held her hand and wrote them again.
"Have you learned it?"
"Yeah, I got it, sister."
"Okay, then Xu Wei and I will go out first, you should practice calligraphy at home."
"good!"
Xu Wei asked as he walked towards the gate of the prefect's residence.
"Miss Erya, do you want to keep Xu Xiaotang?"
"Well, her parents are gone, and you can see that she is only nine years old. You can't just kick her out after saving her, right?"
"By the way, Xu Wei, Xiaotang said she likes to kill pigs. What do you think I should do to help her?"
"Help her find a butcher as her father?"
"Actually, I have a suggestion." Xu Wei resisted the urge to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead and spoke out.
"you say."
"Boss Feiying has spread the word that the Dark Guard Battalion will be recruiting a group of talented people for selection and training."
"I think we can let Xu Xiaotang go over and give it a try."
"Dark Guard Camp?" Simuqiao repeated these three words.
"It is an organization controlled by your majesty. It is not restricted by the royal family and only obeys your majesty. I, like An Yi, are from the Dark Guard Camp."
"I understand. But Xiaotang is just a little girl, can she do it?" Si Muqiao hesitated.
"Of course. Strictly speaking, Xiaotang is already a bit old."
"But she has quick reaction ability, is hardworking, has a tough personality, and likes to kill pigs. If she joins the Dark Guard Camp, it won't be a problem."
"...Let me think about it." Si Muqiao.
So, now even the hobby of slaughtering pigs has become a certain core competitiveness?
Is killing a pig the same as killing a person?
Damn, come on, it seems like we do have some things in common.
White knife goes in, red knife comes out.
Bah, bah, bah, what was she thinking about.
She will tell Xu Xiaotang about this when she returns and ask for her opinion.
"Xu Wei, as far as I know, the disaster situation in Guozhou is very serious. Is the food that Master Rong has found enough?"
"Not quite enough. But Young Master Rong has already issued a grain collection notice to the surrounding cities and states."
"Not only Guozhou, but every place has its own grain reserve warehouse. As long as the reserve grain from the surrounding areas is delivered, it can last for a long time."
"And I heard that there will be disaster relief money coming from the capital as well."
"Well, Master is really thoughtful."
Simuqiao nodded and continued to inquire curiously, "What about the resettlement of the disaster victims?"
"Guozhou was severely affected by the disaster, which means that the people have no food and income at the end of the year."
"The court can't keep supporting them forever, right?"
"This...I don't know." Xu Wei shook his head.
He was just a member of the secret guards and was not aware of the complicated affairs of the court.
If Miss Arya asked him about the techniques and methods of killing people, he would have something to say.
"Okay, let me ask the next question. What's the situation with Master Feng?"
It would be boring to walk all the way anyway, so Si Muqiao simply looked at and admired the shops and scenery along the road while asking these random questions.
Feng Liuyu's mission is to prevent locust plagues.
I don't know how his progress is going.
"I am terrified. I don't know."
"Okay, just pretend I didn't ask."
"But Xu Wei, there should be competition and assessments in your Dark Guard Camp, right?"
"Yes." Xu Wei didn't know what Si Muqiao wanted to say, so he nodded obediently.
"You were able to carry out Master Rong's mission this time, which shows that your abilities are quite outstanding, right?"
"Yes." Xu Wei continued to nod, feeling a little proud.
He was among the top ten in the annual assessment of the Dark Guard Camp this year.
"Besides your strong abilities, do you have any other advantages over ordinary people?"
“?” Xu Wei didn’t understand.
As secret guards, isn't it enough for them to have high martial arts skills and kill people quickly?
Is there any other need to be different from ordinary people?
"It seems that there is none. Guard Xu Wei, you can't do this!"
“???” Xu Wei.
"People, you should keep learning as long as you live. Your skills are too limited."
"Let me ask you, between you and An Yi, who's martial arts is better?" Si Muqiao.
"Of course it's me." Xu Wei said.
"Then the question is, why is it An Yi, and not you, who accompanied Young Master Rong all the way from the capital to Guozhou?"
"Have you ever thought about this question?"
Xu Wei shook his head honestly.
"Because An Yi not only has martial arts skills, he can also cook, and he knows how to proactively inquire about information."
"Along the way, he can not only hunt, but also make some delicious food for Master Rong, and can also convey the news that Master is concerned about at all times."
"So, why is it An Yi and not you who follows Master Rong? Do you understand now?"
"Thank you Miss Erya for your guidance. I now understand." Xu Wei suddenly realized and quickly clasped his fists towards Si Muqiao to express his gratitude.
Humph, that guy An Yi actually secretly learned cooking in order to please Young Master Rong.
Too much!
Just wait and see, Xu Wei is not bad either.
Doesn’t An Yi know how to cook delicious food?
What's the big deal? From today on, Xu Wei must make up for his shortcomings by catching up on all kinds of knowledge.
He not only needs to learn to actively inquire about information, but also needs to learn how to cook, make clothes, build houses, and train horses.
He has to start from the four aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation and strive to become an all-round talent.
Wait until he succeeds in his studies quietly, and then he will surprise everyone in the Dark Guard Camp.
Humph.
Just wait and see. After receiving instruction from Simian, he - the all-round talent Xu Wei - will definitely not be an ordinary person in the future.
Si Muqiao didn't know that her casual words would give Xu Wei such ambitions.
She was simply bored.
Furthermore, he also intended to deliberately provoke Xu Wei.
She felt that after hearing these words, Xu Wei would definitely be very proactive in inquiring for information in the future, right?
In this way, no matter what she wanted to know, if she asked Xu Wei, he would be able to tell her all in one breath.
Instead of the sentence "I don't know".
"Guard Xu Wei, keep going! I believe that with your ability, you will achieve great things in the future."
Simuqiao encouraged him.
"Thank you for your trust, Miss Erya. I will definitely work hard!"
Xu Wei decided that after returning home tonight, he would secretly start studying!
Well, he saw that although there were patches on Xu Xiaotang's clothes, the patches were well-made.
I think Xu Xiaotang’s skills should be good enough.
When he returns home in the evening, why not ask Xu Xiaotang for advice first?
By the way, find an opportunity to sneak into the kitchen to learn.
Xu Wei was instantly immersed in his own thoughts.
Seeing that he was beginning to lose focus, Si Muqiao stopped talking to him.
After walking for another five minutes, we arrived at the doctor registration point at the gate of the prefect's residence.
