Chapter 159 Heading to the Prefectural City
Taoyuan Mall has all kinds of robots.
But Jiang Mianmian always felt that robots could replace repetitive tasks, but they could never replace managerial tasks.
After discussing the construction of the valley, everyone returned to the campsite together.
After staying up until late at night, Jiang Mianmian finally managed to reorganize the construction of the camp, Peach Blossom Spring, and Mountain Valley, and began to replenish supplies in each place.
Seeing her like this, Shi Yi knew she was going out again. "How many days will you be gone this time?"
"It's hard to say, I have to go to several places, but with Taoyuan here, it will be much easier to keep in touch in the future."
Jiang Mianmian yawned, leaving behind several donkey carts and oxcarts. "I gave you a minibus before, have you practiced driving it?"
"I've practiced, but without your supervision, I'm a little unsure."
Shi Yi looked at her with concern, "Why don't you rest well before you leave?"
Jiang Mianmian waved her hand, "It's alright, I won't go back to the manor. Just send someone over to let them know. Wait for me for that car. We'll drive it after the driving range is built and you've practiced enough."
Previously, I always thought that natural disasters made practicing driving at the campsite completely unsuitable.
Now that people can enter Taoyuan, we can build a driving practice area. Then she can issue them driver's licenses. After all, driving is not a joke. Only when you really learn how to drive can you truly enjoy its convenience. Otherwise, you'll only harm yourself and others.
I've already given instructions on this matter, and I estimate that it will be completed by the time I come back next time.
After several busy days, I was tired, but I also gained a lot, with my merit points reaching 360,000.
However, after several upgrades, she discovered that the higher the level, the more merit points were required!
The next upgrade will likely require 500,000 merit points.
Jiang Mianmian pondered haphazardly and drove towards the prefectural city according to the map.
We finally found a place near the city and took out our RV to sleep soundly for days on end.
When I woke up again, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
After eating and drinking to her heart's content, she changed into a very flamboyant dress, rolled on the ground, tugged at her hair a few times, and then stumbled and ran towards the main road.
Everywhere were refugees wanting to enter the city, but seeing her like this, they all gave way.
Unsurprisingly, many people had greed in their eyes.
As if she hadn't noticed anything, she pulled a bulging purse from her waist and cried, "I only have a little over a hundred taels left. What am I going to do? Brother Yuan will be so heartbroken if he can't see me. Waaah!"
"Only I can heal Brother Yuan's leg, and only I can touch Brother Yuan's heart..."
"Waaaaah, what should I do?"
The people around whispered among themselves, "Is this girl talking about that little cripple from the Yuan family?"
"She looks like a young lady, how come she knows how to treat legs?"
"More than a hundred taels of silver can buy a lot of grain!"
A woman came over and said, "Young lady, stop talking. You'll easily attract jealousy if you keep doing this."
She slipped a handkerchief into Jiang Mianmian's hand and whispered, "Silly girl, how can you just shout about how much money you have? Be careful you don't get ripped off like a lamb!"
"Ah, this... can't I say this?"
Jiang Mianmian looked at the older woman with a bewildered expression and said gratefully, "Thank you, Auntie, you're so kind."
"Hey, are you going to town? It's not safe for you to go alone. Come on, come on, come with your auntie."
The woman put her arm around hers and led her forward. "Girl, you can just call me Aunt Cai. What's your name? What are you going to town for?"
"Hello Aunt Cai, you can just call me Mianmian, I'm coming..."
Jiang Mianmian struggled a couple of times but couldn't break free. She looked at her warily and didn't say anything more.
"Look at you, would your auntie harm you? Wasn't it me who reminded you just now?"
"I was overthinking it, Aunt Cai, please don't mind."
Throughout the journey, Aunt Cai maintained a just-right distance, occasionally pinching her arm and trying to get a few words out of her.
Jiang Mianmian also portrayed herself as a down-on-her-luck young lady.
Naive, easily deceived, with only her lover in her heart, and he is very valuable!
After all, Yuan Pei of the Yuan family had quite a reputation in the prefectural city.
The two entered the city and then reluctantly parted ways. "Thank you so much, Auntie, otherwise I don't know what would have happened."
"You're too kind. It's fate that we met."
She clicked her tongue as she looked Jiang Mianmian up and down, and laughed, "You look too disheveled. Why don't you go to the inn up ahead and tidy yourself up? Otherwise, it might be difficult to get into the Yuan family."
Jiang Mianmian gratefully agreed and followed her gaze, indeed seeing an inn. "Then I'll go first, thank you, Auntie."
Seeing her enter the inn, Aunt Cai's smile widened. She went around the corner and slipped in through the back door.
On the other side, Jiang Mianmian entered the room, waited for the waiter to bring up hot water, then locked the doors and windows and slipped into Peach Blossom Spring.
Residents who are working: ???
"..."
Jiang Mianmian felt a little embarrassed. Really, she had forgotten about them!
"Ah, don't be afraid, it's me, Jiang Mianmian."
Hearing the familiar voice and seeing her lively and energetic self, everyone finally came to their senses.
"She really is Mianmian, she's amazing."
"It just popped out in a flash?"
Granny Li wasn't making such a fuss. "Look at how ignorant you all are! This is called magic! I didn't even pass through the cave entrance that day, but Miss Mianmian brought me in like this once. The feeling was... tsk tsk."
"Alright, you guys get back to work."
Jiang Mianmian ran back to the courtyard and boiled water to take a bath.
This place is much more comfortable than the inn. Unfortunately, if she doesn't enter through the connection point, she still only has two hours of free time each day, and merit points will be automatically deducted after that.
After washing up, she even went to Taoyuan Academy for a quick look.
These children work in the morning and attend three classes here in the afternoon.
There were two academic classes, math and Chinese, and the last class was a physical education class for all Taoyuan residents.
She stood at the back door and looked inside. The room was full of children. Tao Shiyu, the former "mouse," stood with a cold face under the big screen, speaking sternly, "Zero to nine, such simple numbers, can't you even bother to memorize them? This is not like..."
The screen displays Arabic numerals.
Jiang Mianmian silently stepped back. These children had no foundation at all, so it was normal for them to learn slowly. Let's take it slow.
Everything in Taoyuan was in perfect order, except for Liao Jian, who was guarding the cave entrance, who had a bruised and swollen face.
He saw Jiang Mianmian and limped over, saying, "Miss Mianmian, please let me go back. I still want to clean the toilets."
I thought guarding the cave entrance would be an easy job, but I never imagined that I could not relax for a moment!
Regardless of whether the person who wants to leave Peach Blossom Spring has a pass, as long as they approach the cave entrance, they will be punished!
You must check your pass immediately to make sure it's in order to avoid being fined.
If he tries to take a nap or slack off, he gets punished. No matter what he does, he gets punished! And then there are those burly guys who deliberately provoke him! They beat him up after a few words! It's so annoying!
"You think you can just change it whenever you want?"
Jiang Mianmian looked at him coldly, "Isn't this what you wanted to come here? Don't worry, no one will die!"
