After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother
Chapter 42 Gaining new skills
For the disaster victims outside the city, these ten thousand kilograms of food were just a drop in the bucket. Yuxiu thought about it and decided to use the same trick again. Soon, she got another large batch of food.
Now that she had food, Yuxiu got up according to the instructions of the small system, left the yard, and quietly went to the warehouse near the City Lord's Mansion.
When she arrived near the warehouse, the small system reminded Yuxiu that her task had been completed and allowed her to confirm and receive the reward.
At this point, Yu Xiucai realized that she had been dazzled by the system mall before. She accepted the task without even asking what the task reward was. She didn't know whether the system would trick her again this time, so she quickly clicked to receive it.
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill of space teleportation. You only need to enter the space and think about where you want to go. When you appear again, you will arrive at the designated place..."
Yuxiu was delighted. Could she go directly to the capital? That way, she wouldn't have to travel so hard. Then she heard the small system continue:
"However, this teleportation skill is only at the elementary level. The range of each movement is within one mile. If you want to reach a farther distance, clear the host and continue to complete more tasks so that the function can be upgraded as soon as possible."
Yuxiu, who was originally a little discouraged, became full of energy as if she had been injected with chicken blood when she heard that she could still upgrade. Feeling the energy in her body, she quickly flashed into the space.
She thought silently in her mind about entering the warehouse, and when she came out, she was indeed inside the warehouse. Although it was pitch dark at this time, Yuxiu could still clearly feel that there was indeed not much food here. She did not hesitate any longer and found an open space. With a thought, all the food she had exchanged in the space was transferred to the warehouse.
Yuxiu was very curious about the teleportation skill. She experimented with it as she walked and visited the courtyards of wealthy people many times. However, she could not see anything at night, so she just took a look and left.
After a lot of trouble, she finally returned to her own small courtyard. Yuxiu felt a little sleepy. After checking to make sure there was nothing missing, she quickly climbed into bed and went to sleep.
When she opened her eyes again, she heard Lin Dazhuang's laughter coming from outside. She looked out the window and saw that it was already bright outside. She just didn't know what that man wanted to come over for.
When Yuxiu packed up and went out, she found that it was not only Lin Dazhuang who came this time, but also the city lord came with him. At this time, Uncle Cui and his two cousins were sitting at the stone table in the yard talking.
"Have you woken up, Xiu girl? Come and meet the two adults."
Seeing Yuxiu coming over, Uncle Cui smiled and waved, so Yuxiu had no choice but to go up and say hello.
"Yesterday I took your ginseng to the shopkeeper in the medicine shop. He said it was in excellent condition and more than 200 years old. If it were converted into silver, it would sell for 2,000 silver coins."
The city lord took out a stack of banknotes from his sleeve and placed them on the table, saying with a smile:
"We can't take something so precious for nothing. Take these banknotes and think of them as the ginseng I bought for you."
What he didn't say was that although the shopkeeper said that the ginseng was worth so much money, it was out of stock at the moment. Whoever got such a good thing would treasure it and keep it for future use, and would never take it out to sell.
Yesterday, the city lord also heard Lin Dazhuang say that Yuxiu would continue her journey to Beijing today. As for Uncle Cui who wanted to buy a carriage but failed, he simply drove one over from the city lord's mansion.
After all, he had told him before that this was his savior, and as long as the request was not too excessive, he should try his best to meet her request.
"I can't accept this, please take it back, sir."
Yuxiu waved her hand to refuse. Although the banknotes were still very tempting to her, the ginseng was really not a big deal to her. There were still plenty of them in her space. Besides, she took it out in the first place to ask for help in finding someone. There was no reason to destroy the bridge after crossing it.
"We also found that ginseng by accident in the mountains. We said it was a reward for asking you to help find someone. How can you ask for money?"
"Take it. You will have to go to the capital city, and there will be a lot of expenses along the way. Besides, you will also need to buy some belongings in the capital city. You can't do without money."
The city lord has good intentions, and he speaks from the bottom of his heart.
If the man taken away by Prince Ning's Mansion was really the girl's father, then if they went there in rags like this, they would probably be driven away before they could even step foot inside the door.
"Really, thank you for considering us, sir. Since I dare to bring my mother to Beijing, I naturally have the ability to take good care of her. Now there are so many disaster victims outside the city who need to be resettled, and you must be under a lot of pressure."
Yuxiu thought about the food that she had exchanged last night, which should not have been discovered by anyone by now.
"Alas, they are all our people. We have no ability to solve the drought problem, so we can only do our best to appease them."
When the city lord heard Yuxiu say that he was under a lot of pressure, he really felt like crying.
The people outside the city cursed him behind his back every day, calling him a dog official and asking why he didn't open the city gates. The court also issued a document ordering him to stop these people from heading north. Now he was really like a rat in a bellows, being bullied from both sides.
"Then keep these. One is a letter to the Lord of Yanyun City. Yanyun City is the only way for you to enter the capital. If you can't get in there, you can take the letter to his house and ask for help."
The city lord handed the letter in his hand to Yuxiu.
"The other one is to the owner of the Fulai Inn in Beijing. If you encounter any trouble after arriving in Beijing, you can go to him with this letter."
This time Yuxiu did not refuse. She quickly took the letter, read it, and thanked him sincerely.
This thing is much more valuable than those silver notes. Although she doesn't have many silver notes now, she can exchange any one of the silver notes in her space for a large amount in return. However, it is not easy to find such favors.
They chatted for a while, and Yuxiu also mentioned that Uncle Cui and his family would stay to help look after the house, and asked the adults to take care of them in the future. The city lord immediately decided to let Uncle Cui and his two sons come with him, and they would follow Lin Dazhuang to do some chores starting tomorrow.
The Cui family was very surprised, and Yuxiu was also very happy. No matter what, with these people taking care of them in the future, they would not have to worry about the safety of the Cui family after they left.
"My lord! My lord!"
The Cui family was still expressing their gratitude when a group of people came in shouting.
