Chapter 586: Building a Tulou for the Bai People to Live In

What is Household registration? Nan Qinghuan looked at the boy who understood nothing; she didn't intend to tell him, for he would eventually know everything about this place.

Today, let him slowly feel the rules here first.

"You will gradually understand; Ashu, take them there and give them some food."

Ashu still felt great sympathy for these Bai People; although they had intended to attack this place at the time, at the crucial moment the boy saved the Goddess, which balanced out the merits and demerits.

The Goddess didn't mind at all; what could she mind? Soon, Ashu led the group of Bai People into the city, and the city dwellers stared at them as if they were beggars; Lan Tian naturally also saw that these people were well‑dressed and well‑fed.

At that moment, he was even more convinced that living here was the right choice.

Only… when he turned his head to look at Nan Qinghuan, she was talking with another female and didn't look at him at all.

After the Bai People left, Youchao Xuan arrived with his men; he also saw that the Bai People had entered and said, "Goddess, where do you intend to settle them?"

The houses are now privatized; anything not owned belongs to Ying and can be arranged at will, so Youchao Xuan didn't understand where she was taking the people.

Nan Qinghuan saw Youchao Xuan arrive and said, "Your timing is perfect; I intend to have you help build a Tulou for the Bai People to live in."

"What, build a Tulou? Let them live there for free?"

The 'white live' is a new term coined by Youchao Xuan; here everything is privatized, so the Bai People cannot possibly live for free.

Nan Qinghuan shook her head, "Of course not; everything here is privatized, and they are no exception. My plan is to first build a Tulou for their clan to reside in, then have them work to earn money to repay the house costs. What do you think of that?"

Hearing this, Youchao Xuan thought it was reasonable; if they were allowed to live for free here, many city dwellers would be displeased.

"I think it's feasible; the Goddess has many ways. I'll start preparing now. As for the money to build the Tulou…"

"I'll front the money first; you go find the funds. I'll go talk to Lan Tian about this in a moment."

"Yes, Goddess."

Youchao Xuan walked a few steps and suddenly stopped, "Goddess, I heard Li Xiang is leaving; is it true? Why is he going? Doesn't Duo Luo still have a child?"

Not to mention, after spending so much time with Li Xiang, Youchao Xuan had grown attached to him; hearing suddenly that he was leaving made his heart reluctant. Of course, he also wanted to ask where he's going, why he leaves, and whether he'll return later. When this topic came up, Nan Qinghuan responded helplessly, "Senior brother's child is in danger; he wants to go back to his hometown for treatment, and we can't help him."

"What, wasn't the Divine Herb given to Duo Luo?"

"No, the Divine Herb's effect isn't strong enough."

Youchao Xuan's first thought was that the Divine Herb had a problem, "That's impossible; the Bai Tribe's Divine Herb is known to protect fetuses, how could it fail?"

Nan Qinghuan shook her head, "I have personally checked on Duo Luo. Fine, this is Senior brother's choice and there's nothing I can do. Perhaps he has long wanted to return; when they first came it was one person, now it's two, and coming back isn't bad at all."

If she could take Duo Luo back, she could already anticipate what Senior brother would have to face.

But for the sake of the child, she couldn't do anything.

"Then where exactly is he going?"

"Yes, Qinghuan, where is Li Xiang going? Will we still be able to see them?"

Axi also felt reluctant; Duo Luo is a very good person, and when they leave, they will be missed.

Nan Qinghuan looked up wordlessly at the sky, asking, "Will we still be able to meet again? It's very difficult."

The Seven Star Conjunction may not appear for many years; such an astronomical wonder is already rare, encountered only by chance.

She sighed deeply, "If fate allows, we will meet again; regardless, I will bless Senior brother."

"Qinghuan..."

"Alright, let's stop talking. This is Senior brother's choice; all we can do is wish them a safe departure. Youchao Xuan, you handle it; Axi, follow me."

"Qinghuan, where are we going?"

"I'll take you to eat something delicious."

"Delicious?"

Axi also worked hard helping with the children, so Nan Qinghuan decided to treat her to a tasty meal. Upon hearing there would be something delicious, Axi was naturally very pleased.

"Alright, Qinghuan, let's go, we'll stroll the market street."

That day, because Lan Tian brought his tribe, the Common People of Kuaihuo City whispered to each other; some looked down on them, deeming them barbarians, and spoke harsh words.

Naturally, those words reached Lan Tian's ears; when he heard them, he was aimlessly wandering the Market street, and the tribe members also felt uncomfortable hearing such remarks.

They immediately wanted to act.

"Clan Leader, let me punish that woman."

"Stop!"

Tribe member A Man was a sturdy man, also one of those who followed Lan Tian to assault the city; now, standing behind Lan Tian, he heard these people trampling them.

They have no ability, but they still cannot be treated so badly!

"Clan Leader, must we endure this?"

A Man was furious and wanted to fight, to cut that woman's tongue off and see if she would still dare speak against them!

Lan Tian was clever; he understood why these people couldn't see them clearly. He glanced at the clothes and Shoes the people wore, then looked at himself and the tribe members.

It was indeed very shabby.

He gave a self‑deprecating smile, "Aren't they right? Here we are seen as madmen, but what's the use of fighting? What we need to do is work hard like them, learn a craft, live our own lives well; once we become like them, will they still criticize us?"

"But Clan Leader, this is infuriating."

"What's there to be angry about? Strive for achievement, don't just be angry."

Lan Tian knew that the tribe members came here that day much like they did, because only here could they develop and reach the present; as long as he and his tribe work a bit more diligently,

Someday the Bai People will be respected by the people of Kuaihuo City.

Definitely can!

Just as A Man was about to speak, the girl beside him hurriedly said, "Clan Leader is right; we're no worse than them. If we're given a chance to work, we can also live the life we desire."

The girl was confident; in her view it was no big deal, yet everything here truly fascinated her—food, clothing, housing—all of which she had never seen.

"The girl is right; as long as you Bai People work hard to put down roots here, sooner or later you'll have no worries about food or clothing."

As soon as those words were spoken, they turned and saw Nan Qinghuan walking toward them with a smiling gaze; Lan Tian, seeing Nan Qinghuan arrive, quickly stepped forward with a grin, his mood brightening, "Qinghuan, why are you here?"
