"The fact that Mr. Gu is an eunuch is just someone else's guess. Whether it's true or not, you and I don't know. No one has confirmed it."
Xiao Liu was not sure whether Gu Changfeng was an eunuch or a normal person, but everyone called him a eunuch.
"I just hope this girl can have a safe life in the future."
Qiao Linxi carried the food Xiao Liu gave them, and the fragrance inside kept wafting out and into the nostrils of all the children, drawing out the greedy insects in their stomachs.
"Gululu..."
This is the third time that Qiao Linbao's stomach has growled beside Qiao Linxi.
"Sister, what's in this? It smells so good."
Qiao Linbao knew that he was a boy, but one steamed bun was not enough to eat. He is also a big boy, and it is time for him to grow. In addition, the smell was very fragrant, and he had tried very hard to suppress it, but his stomach still growled unsatisfactorily.
"hungry?"
Qiao Linxi patted Qiao Linbao's head. Qiao Linbao was a little embarrassed: "Yeah."
When his parents were still alive, all they ate were moldy steamed buns, or they were eaten by his parents from between their teeth and given to his brothers and sisters.
After following Qiao Linxi for the past two days, Qiao Linbao still had something warm in his stomach, which made his stomach even more greedy.
"Let's take a walk. When we're tired, we'll rest and then eat something."
Qiao Linxi couldn't do anything but spend the night hungry even if she had food in her hand. She ate what she had and thought of a solution when it was gone. Eat when you should, drink when you should, this is the best attitude towards life.
"Okay, there's something to eat."
The children all cheered when they saw Qiao Linxi relenting.
Qiao Linxi smiled as she looked at her younger brothers and sisters who felt like they had been given blood for a moment. The biggest advantage of these younger brothers and sisters is that they are obedient and respect her, which gives her a great sense of accomplishment. It's as if she has become a social elder sister who can control the wind and rain.
After walking for a few more miles, the originally excited child became exhausted again. Qiao Linxi herself was hungry and tired, so she planned to rest.
The bag Xiao Liu gave did contain some soft pastries and a few roast ducks, which made the children, who had not eaten well for a long time, drool.
Although the children wanted to eat, Qiao Linxi did not speak, and no one took it from her. She stood obediently in front of Qiao Linxi and waited for her to share.
This is the most valuable thing. If it had been someone else, after Xiao Liu handed the thing over, someone might have grabbed it.
Looking at her well-behaved younger brothers and sisters, the gloom in Qiao Linxi's heart was swept away. No matter what, her younger brothers and sisters were very well-behaved. This was the best gift God had given her after her rebirth. She should be content.
I counted the pastries and found that although they were of different varieties, there were a total of eighteen pieces, as well as four roast ducks. Maybe Xiao Liu also bought them based on their number.
Each child had a piece of pastry and about a quarter of the roast duck, and every child had a happy smile on his face.
"Thank you, Sister Lin Xi."
Even the youngest Qiao Linle got a big duck leg. His mouth was full of oil after eating it, and he couldn't speak clearly to Qiao Linxi to say thank you.
I have to say that it is really easy to get these gratitude points. As long as the children thank Qiao Linxi, she will get the gratitude points. Moreover, the system has been upgraded, and the initial statement that everyone can only have a little gratitude point a day has been overturned. As long as the children truly thank Qiao Linxi, Qiao Linxi will get gratitude points.
With the gratitude points, Qiao Linxi used them to draw a lottery, and the system still gave her some wooden boards and rice. In short, things are getting better and better.
"Didi... Dear host, it's time to wake up!"
Qiao Linxi, who had just fallen asleep, was woken up again by the system. She struggled to open her eyes, but the sky was still dark. She really didn't understand what this broken system was doing so actively trying to get her to wake up every day. Wouldn't it be nice for him to sleep a little longer?
Daily gratitude and check-in are things Qiao Linxi must do.
"Congratulations to the host for opening the business system. The system value is one."
Before Qiao Linxi could ask, the system took the initiative to explain: "That's right, the business system means that the host can do business with the assistance of this system."
"It's just a cheat for doing business."
"It can be understood this way, but whether it is a cheat or a system plug-in, the host needs to be diligent in order to get rich. And the host also needs to uphold a kind and honest heart, so that it can go further."
This system requires Qiao Linxi to be a conscientious businessman if she does business, and not to be a profiteer who cheats and deceives.
"Don't worry, we are good citizens." Qiao Linxi has seen too much suffering in the world and will never do anything to harm others.
It is said that in ancient times, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce were valued, and business people were ranked last. Most people did not think highly of businessmen.
Isn't there a saying that says this? Everything is of inferior quality, but reading is the only thing that is superior. Those scholars have always prided themselves on being noble, and in their eyes, those who do business are the lowest class of people.
After the incident in Baiyun City, Qiao Linxi also figured out that if she wanted to gain a foothold in this society, she couldn't survive solely on the food provided by the system. Although you can survive, you can only survive. If you want to gain a firm foothold, you must have power.
Since the system has opened the business system for her, she must make good use of it. Don't say that businessmen are the lowest, it's because you are not strong enough. If you are powerful enough to be the richest man in the country, let alone a worker or peasant, even officials will have to give you face, and even the emperor will have to respect you.
Of course, Qiao Linxi doesn't plan to just do business. She has eighteen younger brothers and sisters. If one of them works in one business, then her old Qiao family will have a bright future.
Qiao Linxi couldn't help but laugh when she thought that more than ten years later, her Qiao family's business would be spread all over the country, and there would be people from the Qiao family in various industries.
If the richest man in Dai Viet is a member of her Qiao family, the general of Dai Viet is also a member of her Qiao family, and even the Grand Tutor of a country is also a member of her Qiao family, then who would dare to mess with them at that time.
"Sister, why are you giggling?" Qiao Linqin slept next to Qiao Linxi. When she opened her eyes, she saw Qiao Linxi staring at the sky and giggling.
"It's nothing, get up quickly."
After only three or four days together, the children of the Qiao family all know that the first thing they do when they get up every day is a gratitude ceremony. After the others woke up, they all held their hands and put them on their chests without Qiao Linxi's instructions.
"Thank God for letting us live another day."
Qiao Linxi's gratitude ceremony took a long time, because she thanked all the children and collected more than 40 gratitude points.
Qiao Linxi used it to order the lottery.
"Congratulations to the host for getting a set of three courtyards. You need to go ten miles away to get it."
