Part One: Intertwined Time and Space Chapter Two: The Spiritual Stone of Fate
Chapter 203: Turning to Xibaocheng (9)
The four of them walked downstairs. Mo Xue, Qi Jiao and Yue Fan were sitting downstairs. Yue Qing looked around and found no one else.
"You guys really cleared out the people in this inn."
Yue Fan nodded.
Mo Xue asked: "Does the hospital master plan to go out and walk around in the afternoon?"
"You're all here, how can you not take a look at the most famous thing here. Didn't Xibao City change its name to Xibao City because it is rich in jewelry? Of course you have to see it."
Qi Jiao said: "It's easy to clean up the inn, but if you want to go to the Jewelry Pavilion, it's not so easy to clean up the people. There are some troublesome people in there."
"Why do we need to purge people? I thought about what you said today. I also feel that I am the spirit girl of the Chang family, but I am not just your spirit girl. I am myself, and I want to live in my own way. . There is no need to clear people, we can just go there normally and treat ourselves as ordinary customers who come to select and purchase.
Also, Deacon Snow, I will definitely have contact with people outside the villa in the future. If you feel it is inappropriate, you can go to the elders to discuss it. If everyone disagrees, I will go back to the villa and live inside the altar. . This place is not far from the villa. Do you need to discuss it? "
Mo Xue said: "On this issue, I already conveyed the president's intention to the elder when he met with King Bowei."
Yue Qing was stunned: "Did you go to the villa to ask about it that day?"
"Didn't the director of the hospital say that he wanted to make a suggestion? Naturally, I would like to respond on his behalf."
"What did the elders say?"
"Try to act according to the wishes of the hospital master."
Yue Qing asked: "Doesn't anyone have any opinions?"
"Of course there are opinions, but the result of the discussion is indeed this."
"Then you are still so secretive, and I feel like a thief when I go shopping."
"On the one hand, this matter still needs to be considered, and on the other hand, doesn't the director himself not want the people of Xibao City to know that the spirit girl is here?"
"oh."
After pausing for a while, Yue Qing smiled and said: "Thank you elders, especially the fourth elder. Well, I have another opinion. The title of Miss Huang always feels a bit strange. You can call me by a title. Just call me Miss Yue. . Or Cai'er, you can just call her Miss. Isn't that how you were called in the palace before? I think that's pretty good."
Mo Xue: "Okay, just follow the hospital master's wishes."
"Then let's leave now. Yue Ke and Chang Yuxiao can just follow me. Cai'er, please wait for me somewhere else."
"ah?"
"Ah what, Chang Yuxiao definitely doesn't want to stay. Yue Ke is the guide, the three of us are enough."
Mo Xue said: "That doesn't have to be the case. We just go shopping together. There is nothing else."
"Ah, okay, let's go. Yue Ke, where should we go first?"
"Well, it's better to go directly to Liuguang Baolou. If you take a look at the characteristics of this place, just go there."
"Okay, let's go there first. Is it far from here?"
Yue Ke smiled and said, "It's not far away. You can see the hospital master standing at the door of the inn."
"It's right next to here."
"Yes, this is already the most prosperous place in Xibao City. The inn where you are staying now and the restaurant where meals are served at noon are the best places here."
Yue Qing looked around at the inn, "Oh, that's right. It's quite big, but no one lives there, so it doesn't feel like it's an inn. The restaurant was quite lively at noon, but it's a pity that I didn't see anyone coming there with my own eyes. Scenes of people walking through the lobby and stairs.”
Mo Xue said: "What's so interesting about that?"
"I haven't seen it before, of course I want to see it."
Yue Ke said: "You can come and see us next time."
Standing outside the inn, Yue Ming looked at the direction Yue Ke pointed to her. It was a seven-story attic, which was higher than other buildings around it.
Although you can see it, you need to cross an arch bridge to get there. The building is alone on the other side of the bridge. There are some small buildings surrounding it on the left and right. It is not short in itself, but it looks a bit low next to it. .
"Come on, let's go there."
Yue Ke took Wen Fengtou to the street. Yue Qing followed them and turned to look at the shops lined up around her.
"The living area here and outside are simply two different worlds. It's quiet and peaceful outside, but bustling and noisy inside."
Yue Ke said: "Miss Yue is absolutely right, but there is another thing you don't know. This is one of the five most important places in Xibao City."
"Which five?"
"The first one is the central area centered on the City Lord's Mansion. The second one is the southern activity area connected to the villa that the young lady passed when she came. It is the main gathering place of the Mo family. The third one is here."
"Where are the other two places?"
"As for the last two places, if you want to go to Li Country, you will pass there. At the same time, it is also the place where all people outside the villa need to pass when they leave. This last place is more complicated, and it is also related to business and city defense. , is the main area where the city guards live."
Yue Qing nodded: "I see, I can probably imagine some of it."
"The place in front of you is the source of Xibao City's economy, and it is also the main source of various items used in the villa."
"Oh, is that my necklace too?"
"Yes."
"It's not that far away, thanks to Deacon Shen being able to get it so quickly."
"If he doesn't come, the people from Xibao City will go."
"Is he the master of work?"
"master?"
"Oh, they are craftsmen. We are used to calling these craftsmen from all walks of life masters, including those who drive trees, drive horses, grow flowers, etc."
Yue Ke smiled: "I see, yes, several masters who worked on it came over overnight, but they worked hard for a long time."
"Then the stand I used on the altar was also made by the master here?"
"Yes, but it's very simple as long as you know the principle, so it's not worth much."
"Oh. Are these masters also in that building? I can't see them and see the scene of their craftsmanship."
Yue Ke glanced at Yue Fan.
Yue Fan said: "Miss Yue, you can watch it if you want. You just need to tell the city lord in advance."
Mo Xue said: "The production process is a skill that the craftsmen of the Yue family do not pass on to others. If Miss Yue wants to see it, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for Qi Jiao and Cai'er to go in. As for Xiao Lingwei, it depends on what the Yue family thinks."
"Oh, that's right. Generally these are commercial secrets. It's okay. It's fine if you can't see them."
San Yuxiao said: "Don't worry, let's wait until you finish shopping first."
"Um."
With that said, the group of people walked to the intersection leading to Treasure Building. In front of them was an archway with turrets guarded by city guards on both sides. A long step in the middle led to the magnificent arch bridge in front. The steps made of blue bricks are clean and smooth. There are flower beds all the way from here to the arch bridge. Flowers and plants of various colors are planted inside, and the gardeners are very good at taking care of them. The pieces are delicate and the large ones are gorgeous.
After walking up the steps and passing through the archway, Yueqing looked at the nearby scenery and said, "The flowers you grow here are really good. They are so beautiful everywhere."
"Really? If Miss Yue finds it pleasing to the eye, its value has already been reflected."
"Wow, there is a river here." Yue Qing saw a river in front of her as soon as she passed the archway. "That's right. When I saw the arch bridge just now, I should have thought that there must be water, but it is so wide and... This is the first time I’ve seen a flowing river here.”
Several pedestrians on the roadside saw her ignorant look and turned to look at her. One woman covered her mouth with her sleeve and giggled twice. She was followed by three men, all of whom were wearing luxurious clothes.
Seeing her smile, one of the men pulled her over and saluted the cold-faced Qi Jiao and others with a smile: "I'm sorry for my rudeness, my sister-in-law."
The girl stopped smiling and suddenly felt that she had done something not very good.
Some passers-by saw the excitement and some gathered around.
Mo Xue frowned.
Yue Qing saw that the few people had no intention of getting up, so she stepped forward and said: "It's okay, this girl is so cute, she may have never seen anyone who is even curious about the river. That, it's my fault, I come from a small place, I haven't seen After crossing such a clear river, I was amazed, no need to make a fuss."
The man bowed deeply again and straightened up: "I really feel sorry for you. I am the third eldest child in Duan's family in the country of Xiajue. If the girl comes to visit the country of Jue anytime, she must come to the Duan Mansion to find me. I will definitely hold a banquet to make amends."
"Okay, if you have the chance, go."
The man bowed again and took his sister away. Seeing that there was no more excitement, the people around dispersed one after another.
Yue Qing asked Yue Ke in a low voice: "Are there many foreigners here?"
"Naturally, nine out of ten people you see here are from various countries."
"Are these all people? Didn't you say that the Villa doesn't have contact with other people?"
"The only thing you can touch is this street."
"Aren't there people living in the other courtyard near the City Lord's Mansion?"
"The only people who can live there are people with special status. And they can't leave the yard at will. If they want to go out, they need to be escorted by the city guards."
"Oh, where do these people live?"
"There are many inns on the street."
"Like the inn where I stayed?"
"Yes."
"Oh, I have one more question."
Yue Ke smiled and said: "Miss Yue, please ask."
"Um, did I embarrass you just now?"
