"According to your opinion, does a treasure like oil really exist like a god-given person?"

When Lou Wuchen came over, he happened to hear what Mu Mijia said to Xiao Qiongqiu. Although he did not have the hobby of eavesdroppers, this question really aroused his curiosity, so Lou Wuchen stopped and waited for Xiao Qiongqiu's answer.

"...exist." Xiao Qiongqiu said calmly, "Since he said that, I believe it must exist somewhere."

"That's just a simple blind faith, right?" Mu Mijia was so angry that her eyes turned dark. "Put aside your trust relationship with Teacher Lou, just say it in detail - do you believe it?"

"You said something strange." Xiao Qiongqiu was unmoved. "What is important is not what to say, but who is saying it. What the city lord said is a guarantee of credibility. What is the point of insisting on separation?"

Xiao Qiongqiu's words made Mu Mijia completely excited: "Is what Teacher Lou must be right? How could there be endless fuel buried underground waiting for us to dig such a ridiculous thing? Who used what method to bury it for what reason? If there is really no one has seen it before? Could it be that the Creator specially prepared a gift for Teacher Lou alone?"

"It's so ridiculous!" Mu Mijia continued to speak generously, "How can you find that kind of thing? What can I do if the Wei family, who was ordered to find that kind of thing, can't find it? Yes, indeed, Teacher Lou did not blame or urge them, but because he was sent with such heavy expectations, they could only think of other tricks, right?"

Maybe in the Wei family's thinking, Teacher Lou asked them to find something they couldn't find at all, which was to suggest that they would give a different way to pay tribute - Mu Mi added in a thorny story.

Xiaoqiongqiong was about to get angry, but when he looked at the still tender face of the student in front of him, he remembered his position. After taking a deep breath to control his emotions, he asked as calmly as possible: "Do you think Teacher Lou...is that kind of person?"

This time it was Mu Mijia's turn to remain silent. She bit her lip and shook her head and said, "...I don't know that I came here just to confirm this matter and confirm what kind of person he is."

————————————

In the end, Lou Wuchen did not come out, but left quietly.

Rounding around aimlessly on campus, Lou Wuchen thought he would be sad, but there were two similar voices from dreams and reality intertwined, pushing back the black-emotion that was originally raging in his heart, gentle and firmly.

"Since he said that, I believe it."

"You...you need to come on."

Since that's the case, then you have to continue working, right?

Lou Wuchen smiled and walked back to the separate teacher dormitory building.

"But... from the perspective of ordinary people, is this how it is understood?" Lou Wuchen pondered, "Many things that I take for granted may be absurd and fantasy in the eyes of ordinary people?"

That guy Qiongqiu...

"What's wrong? The city lord, with a serious face

Expression…”

"It's nothing, think about something a little - wait!" Lou Wuchen suddenly reacted, "Why are you in my dormitory?"

"Because I want to live, Lord City." Xiao Qiongqiu raised his luggage in his hand as if he was rightfully so.

"Why can't you do it anymore? What should you do if you practice?"

"The city lord doesn't have too many spiritual quotas - of course I don't mean to ask you to raise your salary. I just said that I could use it by the way when I was working, so I don't have to live there specifically." Xiao Qiongqiu said respectfully, "After all, you have entrusted yourself to me. If you don't live by your side, how can you complete this task?"

"Wait, I think I don't mean that..."

"Then the city lord, I'm disturbing." Xiao Qiongqiu took the key from Lou Wushen as if nothing had happened and opened the door. "Thank you for your hard work, please rest early. I'll go to Wei Zijin's house for a home visit tomorrow."

"The itinerary has been set for me?! I said Qiongqiu, has your style changed a little?"

"After all, you asked for that kind of thing - it's rude, this is the city lord..." Xiao Qiongqiu walked into the dormitory and looked around, "Is this your room right? Then I'll live in this room next to me."

"Listen to people!"

Lou Wuchen wanted to cry without tears. The side effects of showing weakness to his subordinates were really too great. The majesty accumulated over the years seemed to disappear all at once. The calmness and ease that had once unilaterally teased Xiao Qiongqiu no longer existed. After stripping away the halo of distance, the boss was just an ordinary person with weakness, and would no longer make people feel mysterious and fearful.

——Especially after being identified as a good person.

"Sir, where is the bathroom?" Xiao Qiongqiu had changed into an apron at some point and walked out of the room with a basin. "I'll go get the basin and clean the towel."

Lou Wuchen pointed silently at the direction of the bathroom, and suddenly remembered something and asked, "Hey, just throw a spell in the room, right? Why are you so troublesome?"

"It is very important to clean it up by yourself after moving, just like a ceremony to officially turn this place into your own territory." Xiao Qiongqiu said while unscrewing the faucet, "Cleaning the room is also a process of tidying up the inner world. The room becomes clean little by little, and the heart will become calm, just as taking a bath will relax your mind and feel happy..."

‘Ah, I understand this.” Lou Wuchen nodded in agreement, “It’s really refreshing to take a hot bath after get off work… It’s not enough to just clean clothes.”

"Then what if you go and take a shower first?" Xiao Qiongqiu walked out with a basin and put it down at the door of his room. "I took this time to clean up the house."

"——No, no." I felt that since I entered the room, Lou Wuchen, who had been moving towards Xiao Qiongqiu, decided to fight for dominance. "I have just woken up shortly now, so I'll wash it before going to bed at night."

"Then..." Xiao Qiongqiu suddenly created a stack of notebooks from somewhere and unloaded them with a bang

In front of Lou Wuchen, "How about you correct the children's homework during this period? I think you shouldn't have this time left."

“…”

Lou Wuchen silently corrected his homework, and Xiao Qiongqiu continued to organize the room. Time passed quietly, and the rustling sounds of the pen tip and broom rubbing on the paper and the ground, making the whole room look more peaceful.

"Xu time... no, it's nineteen o'clock, the sun has completely set." Xiao Qiongqiu, who had finished cleaning the living room and study, pulled the curtains open and let the last ray of red afterglow shine in, "The fire is so beautiful, the city lord."

"...Hmm." Lou Wuchen just finished correcting the last homework and put it on the left, "That way, it's - eh!"

"This is the city construction plan you revised after the last time you put forward your opinions." Xiao Qiongqiu spread a large piece of paper in front of Lou Wuchen's eyes. "The address was initially set in the middle section of Qingsha River, this place. The plan is to use a symmetrical approach to build a pair of twin cities - Xicheng uses your resources from Tiangong, while Dongcheng relies entirely on the output of the completed Xicheng to build a mirror city that is exactly the same as Xicheng..."

The night became darker and deeper. After dinner, the playground, which was once noisy, gradually returned to silence. The lights in the dormitory rooms of the campus residents were also lit up one by one, and only the lights in the Wuchen room of the teacher dormitory building were always on firmly - just like usual.

——What you want to say is actually a little different.

"…It's twenty-two o'clock. City Lord, you should be tired, right?"

"It's not yet. By the way, Mu Yu and Mining will give me a report to the village chief in Xishan Village in December."

"Here- are you going to let them go to the new experimental village?"

"I'm considering... I'll show me the harvest statistics last year, which is accurate to the village."

"OK……"

...

"…The date seems to have changed. Lord, is it almost time to rest?"

"I'm not sleepy yet. You go and have a rest first. I'll look at this calculation later... If the materials required for this plan and the labor force in the foundation-building period are included... and the premium as a concession... I still have the budget left in my first phase..."

"City Lord, it's a little bit-"

"Don't tell the time at the right time! Are you my secretary-ship?!"

Lou Wuchen felt anger and turned his head, but saw Xiao Qiongqiu holding two cups of tea and tilting his head: "I made tea for you - what is the secretary-ship?"

Looking at Xiao Qiongqiu who was sitting aside after putting down the tea and still reading the information, the depression in Lou Wuchen's heart suddenly disappeared. He picked up the slightly hot tea and took a sip. He calmed down again and devoted himself to the calculation again.

“…Thank you.”

“?What did you say?”

"nothing."
