Chapter 54: Financier

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The group stopped in front of the city gate to prepare themselves. First, they packed their things.

They waited for Ning Bai to find the magistrate of this city. The magistrate would be the equivalent of a modern-day mayor. He would discuss the arrangements with him and also record the official letter of residence. Then, they could really settle down.

What a happy thing it was!

Just as they were about to enter the city, the two little fellows woke up. They looked around the entrance of the city with sleepy eyes.

As if he’d seen something that made him happy, Dabao said, “Ah,” and dug out the towel in his back basket.

“Dabao! Dabao!” Ning Yue was shocked by Big Treasure’s actions.

If such a big child fell out of the basket, he would be injured. Fortunately, Ning Yue was fast enough and caught Dabao in time to avoid him being injured.

Dabao didn’t seem to realize that he had just done something dangerous. He pointed in a direction and smiled until his round eyes curved.

Ning Yue looked in the direction Dabao was pointing and actually saw an unexpected person.

Jiang Ying also noticed Ning Yue with surprise in his eyes.

Ning Yue carried Dabao and walked to Jiang Ying. “I didn’t expect to see you here. How’s your nephew? Is he alright?” Ning Yue asked first.

This person was the lucky star Ning Yue met when she first came to this world. She thought that it would take a long time for them to meet again, but she did not expect him to appear in Linzhou. What did this mean?

This meant that the man had a deep relationship with Linzhou!

“He’s recovered, but he keeps thinking about your life-saving grace. He wants to see what his savior looks like so he can repay the favor.”

What a good boy!

Ning Yue silently praised him in her heart.

“Why are you here?” the man asked Ning Yue.

“We fled here. My hometown suffered a serious disaster. The few cities we visited were unwilling to accept us, so we could only come here.”

When Ning Yue said this, Jiang Ying was shocked. Of course, no matter how shocked he was, he did not show it on his face.

He had guessed that some escapees would cross the mountains to come here. After all, the cities closest to the escapees belonged to another person. The other party did not have a good relationship with the people in the affected areas, so they naturally would not accept the escapees.

However, he did not expect that the first person to arrive would actually be Ning Yue, a female doctor who knew how to detoxify poisons. Moreover, she was the first person to arrive. He thought much more highly of Ning Yue.

Through his conversation with Ning Yue, he could sense that Ning Yue must have contributed greatly to this group of people reaching this point.

However, although he was curious about how Ning Yue did it, he did not ask. After all, this was her private matter. Moreover, they might not have any interactions in the future.

Might as well stop being curious and not ask questions.

“Are you planning to settle down here?” Jiang Ying asked.

Ning Yue nodded. “But I wonder if the magistrate can agree to let us settle here.”

She was actually quite curious about this person’s identity, but she only thought about it and did not ask. After all, sometimes curiosity could kill.

Jiang Ying praised Ning Yue’s sensibility.

It would be easy to arrange for a few refugees, but they were from a large village.

Everyone had come here from a rural village. It was a huge problem for so many people to settle down. Thinking of this, Ning Yue sighed.

Jiang Ying seemed to see Ning Yue’s difficulties and said, “Do you still have the token I gave you?”

“It’s still here. What’s wrong?” Ning Yue looked at Jiang Ying in confusion.

“When you go to find the magistrate, take the bronze token. He will arrange it for you.” Jiang Ying turned around and left without waiting for Ning Yue’s reply.

Ning Yue looked at the person’s back in confusion and took out the bronze token to take a look. She was suddenly very curious about that person’s identity.

What puzzled her even more was that this bronze token was actually more like a disposable item. He could totally take it back after using it once.

But he didn’t look as if he wanted to take the bronze plate back. Why?

Forget it. If she couldn’t think of anything, she wouldn’t think of it.
