Xiaoxiao suppressed her excitement, but her voice still rose slightly.

The boy looked embarrassed, his ears turning red, and he stammered awkwardly, "No, no!"

"How could you draw it so accurately without measuring it? Judging from the size and proportions, it should be about the same as the real house."

"But your paintings really lack soul. Look at the flowers you painted here; they're so lifeless."

The boy's cheeks flushed even more. "I don't know either!"

"I have drawn it very carefully."

Xiaoxiao laughed and said, "Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. In fact, not all paintings need a soul. You are not very sensitive to flowers, plants, insects, fish, or portraits. But you are very good at architecture and architecture."

The boy lowered his head. "But what's the use?"

Xiaoxiao took another bite of the egg, and it really smelled delicious.

Soaked in broth, the eggs even smelled like instant noodles.

"How could it be useless? I feel you have the talent of an architect."

The boy looked up in surprise. "Architectural designer? What's that?"

I've never heard of this name before. Could it be a type of painter?

“An architect is someone who specializes in designing buildings, such as the houses we live in, the pavilions in some places, the back gardens of wealthy families, or even palaces. Many of these require individual design.”

The boy scratched his head, his eyes still showing a silly and cute look, "But, the houses we usually live in don't need any design at all."

Everyone's living conditions were pretty much the same; those craftsmen could build them with their eyes closed.

Xiaoxiao shook her head. "You're wrong to say that. Ordinary houses don't need design, but people who are a little particular still need to design them properly."

"I think you have a lot of potential. Are you interested in working for me?"

The group of people who had just been talking to the boy had already gathered around.

Hearing a four or five-year-old child ask an adult if they can work with her is quite a strange sight.

The boy was so shocked that he stood there stunned for a long time, unable to recover.

Wuyou kicked the young boy again, saying, "My young lady is giving you a chance, so why don't you hurry up and agree? Do you know how many people want to follow by the young lady's side and serve her, but they don't even have the chance?"

The boy blinked innocently. "If I follow you, will I still be able to draw? Draw paintings like mine?"

"can!"

"Is there any silver to be received?"

He still has to live, and he wants to live life to the fullest, but he also needs to eat.

"Yes, but I also need to give it a trial period. The trial period is one month and I will receive three taels of silver. If I pass the trial, I will receive at least ten taels of silver, with no upper limit."

The few people who were just watching the commotion gasped in shock. A trial period of only three ounces?

You should know that an ordinary person's monthly wage is less than one tael of silver.

Where did this little girl come from? Is she out here to give away wealth?

"Yes! I do!"

Xiaoxiao nodded and looked at Wuyou, "Aren't you going to hurry up and prepare the agreement?"

Wuyou's lips twitched violently. As expected of her young lady, she could even find talent while having a meal.

However, this young man does have some skill, although she doesn't know what use that skill is.

Everyone watched in disbelief as the boy, whom they had just despised, signed an agreement and received three taels of silver.

In the young woman's words, it was a month's salary advanced.

"Where did this sucker come from? This is the first time I've ever heard of someone being paid before they even start work."

"Young lady, do you need any more people? I can help you too!"

"You don't need to give me ten taels of silver, just two taels a month and I'll work for you for the rest of my life!"

"Little girl, I can do it too!"

Xiaoxiao smiled brightly, "I don't keep useless people here. If you have a skill, show me your strength and maybe I'll keep you."

"Young lady, this is a wood carving I made. I can do all kinds of woodworking, and I'm good at everything from tables and chairs to benches."

The man took out a small horse, which was lifelike and exquisitely carved.

Xiaoxiao liked it at first sight. "You stay here first. I want to see what other things you made later, to see if they are as you described."
