Exile is exile, is half of the capital enough as compensation?

"I know. Besides, you look down on your little sister too much. She is not someone who will be taken advantage of so easily."

Leng Yuyang laughed when he heard this.

He would not refute this statement.

He is well aware of his younger sister's abilities.

Everything she did after she came back was something that no ordinary person could do.

His little sister did it so easily.

"Okay, go back and rest. We don't know what the situation is over there, so be careful!"

"You too." Li Tianze replied lightly.

The two smiled at each other and walked towards their respective residences.

Leng Youran watched the two of them leave and withdrew his mental power.

She looked up at the dark night sky and jumped onto the roof of her house.

Standing on the roof overlooking the entire yard.

She is now in the center of the inner courtyard. There are four small courtyards in the east, west, south and north, and each courtyard has a corner gate.

There are four courtyards outside each inner courtyard. Li Tianze and others live there now, but when she came here before, Zhu Dazhi's sons lived there.

Behind her yard was the main yard, which was divided into east and west yards. The three yards were much larger than the yards in front of them.

The layout of the entire house looks square, but upon closer inspection, it is not difficult to find that the courtyard where Tianze and others live now is slightly newer and seems to have been built later.

In short, the entire governor's mansion looks very magnificent and grand, more than twice as big as the governor's mansions she had seen in Liancheng and Zhoucheng before.

"Why did you think of going up to the roof?"

Leng Youran's thoughts were interrupted by the sudden sound of someone getting up. When she turned around, she saw that Li Tianze had jumped onto the roof at some point.

"Why haven't you rested yet?"

Li Tianze walked over to where she was sitting without any hesitation and sat down, then took out two pots of wine in his hands like a magic trick.

Leng Youran took it and sat down as well. "Are you worried about something? You're not sleeping in the middle of the night and you're secretly drinking."

Having said that, she still opened the jar of wine and took a sip without waiting for Li Tianze.

Li Tianze really likes her straightforwardness.

Unlike the noble ladies in the capital, who are timid and annoying when doing things.

"I was about to go to bed, but when I saw you on the roof, I wanted to come and see if you were unhappy."

"I'm not unhappy. This day feels like the happiest day since I came back. I have to thank you for this!"

Li Tianze quickly shook his head, "I dare not accept your gratitude."

"Hehehe, is there any gratitude you can't accept?"

"Of course, I don't dare accept your thanks." Li Tianze said half-jokingly.

Leng Youran laughed foolishly, "Okay then, I won't be polite to you from now on."

"That's daring."

"By the way, why did brother look for you?" Leng Youran asked tentatively.

Li Tianze looked at her sideways, the affection in his eyes undisguised, "Nothing, just a small talk."

"Really?" Leng Youran pretended to be unconvinced.

In fact, she was still very curious about why Leng Yuyang specifically pointed out that he seemed to have unfinished business, and she was also curious about why Leng Yuyang had that expression when he heard him say that it was a blessing to have someone to wait for.

She just didn't want to explore it.

Sooner or later she will know about her elder brother's affairs.

As for his affairs, as he said, her mind is not entirely focused on matters between men and women now.

She understood that her attitude towards Li Tianze was different from others, but she didn't know whether it was love or not.

So, let’s just walk and see!

"Yes."

Leng Youran smiled and didn't respond to him.

***

Early the next morning.

As soon as Leng Youran came out of the room, she saw Leng Yuyang and Li Tianze standing at her door.

"Why are you here so early?"

"Last night you said you were going to pick up the old man and the others, so I came to see if there was anything I could do to help." Li Tianze said calmly.

Leng Yuyang felt that the man was scheming after hearing this. They had talked for such a long time last night, but this guy had never told him about this.

If I hadn't seen him coming this way this morning and followed him out of curiosity, I wouldn't have known that my younger sister had "conspired" with him about something they didn't know about.

Cursing inwardly, he said, "Well, I came to see if my younger sister has any plans for today. We have to find something to do during the day if we don't act at night."

Leng Youran ignored the undercurrent between them and rubbed his chin a few times. "Big Brother, if it's convenient for you and the second brother, why don't you take your men to patrol around here? We only know a little about the Northland. You and Zhuang Chenxu can split up and explore in four directions. I want to know how far each county town in the Northland is from here."

Leng Yuyang: "Okay, then I'll go find your second brother and the others."

"Ah."

After Leng Yuyang left, Leng Youran looked at Li Tianze and said, "Then come with me to pick up Grandpa and the others!"

"it is good."

When the old man and the others were brought here, they were also shocked by the magnificence of the governor's mansion.

"Zhu Dazhi deserves to die! All the nice houses in the city belong to him. Look at those houses on both sides of the market. To put it bluntly, a strong wind could blow them down."

"Yeah, he looted so many things but didn't think about building the North well at all. This beast will be beaten to death when I see him later." Leng Chengye said angrily.

Leng Chengdong didn't say anything. After entering the city gate, he kept observing his surroundings.

Although those houses look dilapidated, it can be seen that no one lives there.

Before in Beijing, I only heard that the people in the north were suffering terribly. Now that I have seen it for myself, I know that those words were not just talk.

Even ordinary people cannot afford to live in such houses.

Just imagine how dilapidated the places where the people live are.

"Grandfather, Dad, Second Uncle, and Big Brother have already checked around. We'll know the situation in the surrounding towns this afternoon. You'll probably have to worry about what happens next."

Old Master Leng was supported by Leng Youran and sat in the first seat. There was no joy in his eyes and his face was terribly cold.

"If the Northland wants to continue to develop, it's probably going to have to rebuild. It's not easy to repair those houses, so it would be better to tear them down and rebuild."

"Boss, you still have people under your command. Let them come over and gather all the people from the north into the city as soon as possible."

"Second Brother, have your people look around and see where all the fertile land that Zhu Dazhi once owned has been put."

The most important thing right now is the people.

It snowed all winter, and I don’t know how many of those people could survive.

Now he couldn't consider who was guilty. In his opinion, even if one was guilty, he should atone for his crime once he came to the North.
