Quick Transmigration: Leisure
Chapter 570 The Mystery of Bianjing: A Tale of Love and Debauchery (35 chapters)
Bianjing City, south of the city.
Today, the sky is cloudless, and a gentle breeze carries the fragrance of grass and trees, making one unconsciously relax and feel refreshed.
Xia Youmi completed the full sketch and handed it to Fu Miaoan to check for any errors or omissions.
Then, he took out another, smaller piece of paper and drew abstract lines and blocks on it, intending to use it later to discuss the specific uses of each piece of land with the other party.
Fu Miao'an studied it carefully for a long time, and then summoned his deputy to take him to walk the route again.
Although the error was small, he was meticulous in his work and needed to be dealt with with a down-to-earth attitude.
After receiving the order, a group of people withdrew. They had a clear division of labor: the most trusted person held the sketch, while four others personally verified the accuracy of the sketch from different angles.
Xia Youmi looked up and smiled with satisfaction.
Fu Miao'an, however, only looked at Chi You and the paper she had laid out, as well as the hand that was flying across the paper, his eyes focused.
"It's done."
Xia Youmi drew faster than the restored sketch this time, and when he put down his pen, the other person was still stunned as the pen tip trembled.
"I admire you!" Fu Miao'an met the slightly arrogant gaze and subconsciously offered a word of praise.
Xia Youmi noticed his eagerness and pushed the paper and pen over, saying in a light tone, "Lord Fu, you can fill in your requirements in this empty space. How many courtyards? What are they for? Give me a rough idea so I can go back and start writing."
"Thank you!" Fu Miao'an accepted it and began to think about it seriously.
He quickly wrote down the few places he had planned to write, but he adjusted the size of the characters several times before he managed to keep the style consistent with Xia Youmi's original handwriting.
Noticing these subtle details, Xia Youmi smiled silently and leisurely sipped her tea. Her fingers lightly gripped the cup, revealing a distinct texture, lacking the delicate beauty of jade, yet still elegant and relaxed.
The maidservant beside her followed her closely, and couldn't help but imagine that this woman must have been a lady from a prominent family in the past.
With their ability to judge people, they are never wrong.
But seeing the lines on her neck, and the contrast between her skin tone and the patch of white skin peeking out from under her collar, one can't help but sigh. No matter how beautiful a woman is, she must accept the ravages of time.
This person has achieved his current ease, but one can only imagine how much hardship he endured along the way.
As she noticed the wind picking up, she carefully draped the simple, elegant cloak she had brought over over Xia Youmi's shoulders. When she turned to thank her, the maid was still a little embarrassed.
Feeling stung by the gaze, she repeatedly whispered politely.
Distracted by the commotion, Fu Miao'an looked up and unfortunately met Xia Youmi's still-smiling eyes. For a moment, he had a sense of déjà vu.
But those light and clear brown pupils.
He couldn't recall when or where he had seen it before; he had no memory of it, and he was almost certain he had never seen it before.
But intuition couldn't mask the familiar atmosphere.
However, it only lasted for a moment; the angle might have been too far off, or it might have been an illusion.
When she came to her senses again, she found that Chi Youxiao was still smiling the same way she had when they first met, without any sign of anything amiss.
Or maybe,
He was just somewhat concerned about the mystery and the missing people.
He'd been preoccupied with so many cases over the past six months that he couldn't even remember the man's name for a moment.
All I remember are a pair of almond-shaped, light blue eyes, which are extremely rare. Not only are they unique in shape and color, but what is unforgettable is the faint melancholy that shines through them, and that indifference towards all things in the world.
It can draw people in deeply, yet they also know very well that they can't grasp it, thus making them feel empty in advance.
They are different people.
Perhaps it was because Fu Miao'an was too lucky that he was able to encounter such bizarre and entangled cases, and also that he was able to meet two exceptionally talented and beautiful people at once.
"Lord Fu?" Xia Youmi looked directly at him, snapping out of her daze.
On the contrary, it was Fu Miao who felt uncomfortable.
But he quickly composed himself and met Master Chi You's gaze with a generous smile. The other party did not look away, and the emotion he conveyed was completely opposite to that illusion of light blue, but rather revealed a faint sense of kindness towards a junior.
Fu Miao'an was amused by his own idea, handed over the blueprints, and changed the subject to the mansion.
"I would like to hear your opinion on these points."
"Ah."
Xia Youmi simply laid out the drawings in the middle and explained them to Fu Miao'an one by one. She didn't need to constantly record the ideas he raised, as Niannian could help with that. The only thing was that the drawings needed to be drawn promptly and confirmed by both parties to save unnecessary communication.
They didn't go back at noon either, as they were still talking about sex.
Instead, she got up and gestured to the actual location. When she saw that not many people were following her closely, Xia Youmi would use slang to explain the design of the place for solving cases. This part was confidential, and even Fu Miao'an's people couldn't know too much detail. Xia Youmi clearly understood the tricks of the trade.
In fact, it was only after she pointed it out that Fu Miao'an showed a clear-headed confusion befitting his age, and then repeatedly expressed that he had learned something.
If we spend more time together, we might start addressing each other as elders.
When it comes to certain cases, Xia Youmi can also offer some insights. Although he and his master have solved most of the cases using their own methods, Chi You can still offer different perspectives from the angles of public opinion and motives.
Both of them enjoy thinking from multiple perspectives and are very receptive to both recognition and differing viewpoints.
Although Chi You is set to be relatively young at twenty-seven, Fu Miao'an is also not young at twenty-five.
However, Xia Youmi continued to treat this "junior" with the respect due to their age difference.
They fooled him so much that he almost left the scene in a daze.
After verifying the requirements and site sketches, Xia Youmi was sent back to the shop in the west of the city. It wasn't far from Fu Miao'an's residence. When she was drawing up the formal design, she could have Lao Yao run back and forth to relay the revisions.
Fu Miao'an didn't have time to sigh much before he was pulled away by a case as soon as he returned to his residence.
He didn't say much, but he received a small wooden seal from his maid. It was left by Master Chi You, who said that he could use it to leave letters at "Kaishantang" two streets away.
This is what they prepared for special guests.
In the future, he will have priority in business dealings, and we would also like to invite him to come over for tea when he has time.
Fu Miao'an didn't have time to examine it closely, and put the seal along with the silk ribbon attached into his pocket. If he wore it directly on his body, he was worried that the thin silk ribbon might break off somewhere.
When he had more free time later, he discovered the secret behind the seal: it was not easy to break, and it could even be tied securely and easily.
The engraved images contain hidden secrets, making them difficult to accurately replicate.
Xia Youmi returned to Kaishan Hall, gave instructions to Yan Laoyao about today's guests, and told him about the diagram and identification method of the seal before going back to his room to rest.
evening,
The food and drinks she ordered arrived, and the two of them ate their staff meal and chatted together.
The bustling atmosphere of Feihua Pavilion is completely separate from the tranquility here.
Yan Laoyao was in high spirits. These days, if he needed to stay at the shop for a long time, his meals would be specially delivered by the restaurant.
At first, he was quite apprehensive, but after realizing the owner was unhappy with his refusal, he ate every last bit. The meal box was collected the next day, and the corresponding new meals would be delivered on time. The restaurant staff instructed him that he only needed to order the quantity and standard for next month in advance, so he wouldn't have to wait and hope.
If you need an extra meal, just let me know. The two restaurants are not far apart, and it seems that the owners of both restaurants have already established a cooperative relationship.
The shopkeepers all recognized the youngest.
Upon hearing that Chi You had already arranged lunch for next month, Yan Laoyao had no choice but to eat his fill and get his money's worth. With better nutrition, he grew taller and taller, often working twice as hard to repay Xia Youmi.
Actually,
She wasn't entirely well-intentioned; it's just that the shop didn't have a kitchen.
Xia Youmi doesn't plan to cook, so she needs a stable large canteen that can handle both the heavy responsibility of entertaining guests and the proper meals for the staff.
She needs to eat too.
Yan Laoyao's home is quite a distance from here. He eats a full meal at home in the morning and then sets off. He doesn't want to spend money outside at noon, so he goes hungry and waits until he gets back in the evening to fill his stomach.
That's not how you treat your employees! A little money to improve efficiency is not a bad deal.
