In the morning, after returning from the Space Pearl, Lin Haoming felt refreshed. When he walked out of the bedroom, Lin Haoming also saw that Shang Yu'er had placed breakfast on the table outside.

Breakfast is a big bowl of porridge, but this porridge is not just white porridge of Huayuan rice. There are also some meat and vegetable leaves in the white porridge. Lin Haoming thought of what Lao Yu sent yesterday, and estimated that the ingredients in the white porridge should be those .

Before Lin Haoming sat down, Yu'er had already filled a bowl for him and stood beside the table in a pretty way.

"Have you eaten?" Lin Haoming picked up the bowl and asked casually.

Yu'er immediately nodded with a smile and said: "I went to the kitchen this morning and had already eaten. All the servants had eaten. Grandpa told the cook to drink Huayuan rice porridge this morning. I drank three big bowls!"

"Is it me?" Lin Haoming took a sip and felt that the meat porridge not only retained the fragrance of Huayuan rice, but also had a meaty flavor. However, because of the combination of vegetables and leaves, there was no fishy smell. It felt really good. It's no worse than the dishes at the restaurant yesterday.

"Of course not. Master, your breakfast was made by Chun Niang herself, using the meat of Tiebei beef. I heard Chun Niang say that a pound of Tiebei beef costs half a petrified rice." Yu'er said without any scheming.

Lin Haoming smiled after hearing this and said, "Go get a bowl and fill half of it yourself!"

"Master, what are you doing?"

"Your great-grandfather knows that you have to reward everyone on the first day, and I, as the master, will reward you too. However, your cultivation level is low. You drank three bowls of porridge before, and at most you could only drink half a bowl. After you finish drinking it, you can Well refined!" Lin Haoming said softly.

"Thank you, sir, but I don't want me to go get it. I'll just drink the rest from you!" Shang Yu'er didn't hesitate at all.

Lin Haoming was stunned when he heard this. This girl really regarded her as his own.

Lin Haoming did not refuse. In the end, he left half the bowl for her. After finishing it, he was ready to go out for a walk alone.

As soon as Lin Haoming went out, Old Shang sneaked into the house quietly. When he saw Shang Yu'er actually eating meat porridge in the porcelain basin, he immediately shouted: "Yu'er, what are you doing!"

"Grandpa!" Shang Yu'er was startled when she heard Shang Chengzuo's voice, and the spoon in her hand fell to the ground.

Shang Chengzuo walked up to Yu'er in a few steps, looked at the little meat porridge left in the porcelain basin, and said seriously and seriously: "Yu'er, even if I can't finish the meal, you can't eat it by yourself, at least not now. You have just arrived at the master’s side, so be careful about everything!”

"No, great grandpa, this... this is what the master gave me!" After hearing this, Shang Yu'er lowered his head and explained aggrievedly.

"What, did the master reward you?" Old Man Shang's expression condensed and he asked in surprise.

Shang Yu'er nodded and explained: "The master asked everyone if they had eaten in the morning, so I answered. Later, the master rewarded me with half a bowl of porridge, so I said, master, just keep some!"

"I see, Yu'er, it seems that the master is really good to you!" After hearing this explanation, old man Shang also had a smile on his face.

"The master is a good man!" Yu'er said based on her impression of Lin Haoming.

"Then when you served the master yesterday, did the master say anything?" Old Man Shang asked.

"I asked a few questions about my family situation, and then I finished serving. I was told to prepare breakfast today, and then I went to rest first!" Shang Yu'er remembered Lin Haoming's instructions not to talk too much, and now she remembered it.

After hearing this, Old Man Shang nodded and said: "Yu'er, our master is not an ordinary person. He is an ascended monk. The ascended monk a thousand years ago is now the commander of Diansi. If you can please him, you will become a monk one day." If you kill him, everyone in the business will look at your face, even your third grandfather will laugh when he sees you."

"I just want to serve the master well!" Shang Yu'er was just a little hazy about these things, but she really liked Lin Haoming. Thinking that if she could really be the master's concubine in the future, it would definitely be a good thing, and she didn't feel reluctant at the moment. .

"As long as you understand, I won't say anything more in the future. I forgot to explain what I told you yesterday. Don't talk to the master yourself about the things I told you!" Old Man Shang reminded.

Yu'er wanted to tell her grandpa that she had already said it, but at this moment her grandpa had left, and he also told her not to talk too much to others, so she didn't even think about it anymore. Moreover, this meat porridge is so delicious, little girl is a fan. The tip of her tender tongue gently licked her lips and picked up the jade spoon.

In the next few days, Lin Hao went out in the morning and walked around the city. He went to the city three or four times, and to the north and south of the city twice.

Although the north of the city is where rich people live, no matter how rich people are in the heaven, they are far from being able to get an official status. Therefore, once they can get an official status, they are naturally not willing to live here. Therefore, although this place is known as the place where rich people live, in fact it is There are not many truly wealthy families in the world.

Of course, in comparison, the south of the city was much miserable. After arriving here, Lin Haoming finally saw the truly dark side of the heaven.

The south of the city is very large, but it is even larger than the north of the city. It is only smaller than the east of the city where the officials live. It occupies nearly 30% of Xilin County, but it is home to more than 90% of the population of Xilin County.

In the east, west and north of the city, it is rare to see old people, but here, old people are everywhere. Every one of these people is full of death energy. They don't have enough Yuan Jing or even Yuan rice. His lifespan was constantly consumed, and finally he turned into a pile of bones.

Lin Haoming also understands why two shi of rice can buy a decent-looking maid, because two shi of rice is enough to feed many people, or in other words, two shi of rice can make a person live for decades longer. Many people don't need to think about the choice between life and children, and their children will suffer when they are with them. Selling them as maids to officials may be a way out.

There are many things to do in the south of the city, but because the fields in Xilin County are in the south of the city, many people in the south of the city are actually farmers. During the busy farming season, the place will look empty. Many farmers go out and will not come back until a month or two later.

The main reason why so many farmers live in the city is that it is not safe outside the city. Xilin County is a rather desolate place with many deep mountains and old forests. From time to time, powerful ferocious beasts will come out of the mountains. Lin Haoming asked around and found out. I know that in the past hundred years alone, there have been no less than seven or eight cases of ferocious beasts breaking into farms and killing people. Individual people have been killed by ferocious beasts, and there are many more. In addition, the outside of the city is also infested by bandits and people doing lifeless business. Therefore, even if life is difficult for people living in the city, most people will not go outside the city to gamble their lives unless it is their turn to guard the farmland. As for the busy farming season, the households, workshops, and barracks will jointly dispatch troops to guard the farm. Of course, this can only be done during the busy farming season. This is done only in season, because sending troops out, even if they are close at hand, costs money.
