FORGOTTEN LEGEND OF THE BLOODIED FLOWER

Chapter 165 - [Bonus ]Two Tasks



The officials there were all acting polite and greeted Old Master Nan along with the others. This time, neither one of the three young masters dared to neglect their etiquette lessons. It was fine when they were alone but if it was outside… their grandfather would spank them even if their mother let it be.

Nan Hua was staying at the back with Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai on her left and right. Behind her, Feng Ao Si was looking at her with both fear and apprehension. He looked like a lost puppy as he kept on watching Nan Hua every few seconds.

Even though Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai noticed his gaze, they didn't even try to allow him to get close to Nan Hua.

"General Nan, this place is also very vast. Do you want to look around?" the official asked.

Old Master Nan really wished to show his fist and blew them all back, telling them how useless it was for him to do that. In the end, he sighed. "I feel rather tired. I think I'll return first."

"Ah, alright."

"Thank you for visiting us in your busy time."

"Yes, we hope for you to recover faster, General Nan."

They exchanged a few more pleasantries as they acted as if they wished for Old Master Nan to recover immediately. Looking at their 'genuine' expression, Nan Luo even felt the urge to puke.

He really wondered how in the world someone could last so long with only flattering other people like that.

"Time to go back."

Nan Hua looked around once more but she didn't find the person whom she was looking for. Among the officials who came to search for Old Master Nan, Zhang Dan Shui couldn't be found.

Walking out of the building, Nan Hua saw Zhang Dan Shui walked with another official beside him. The two of them were stunned and stopped in their spot. They immediately bowed down politely.

"Vice Governor Zhang Dan Shui (Official Yu Fei Rong) greets General Nan."

Old Master Nan waved his hand. He looked at Zhang Dan Shui as he knew that his granddaughter would want to meet with him. However, trying to make excuse so that Nan Hua could meet with him… was a bit difficult.

In the first place, what kind of excuse could he make?

"Grandfather, can we look around at the garden?" Nan Hua asked softly.

Old Master Nan arched his eyebrows. He pointed at Zhang Dan Shui. "My grandchildren are all quite tired from having to walk around. Let them stay in the garden for a bit."

"Replying to General Nan, I understand."

"Official Yu, right? May I ask what you're doing outside?"

"Ah, it's like this…"

While Yu Fei Rong was busy to explain, Zhang Dan Shui led the children to the garden. Nan Luo was curious as to why Nan Hua wanted to head to the garden but he didn't care as long as it was something that Nan Hua wanted.

Feng Ao Kuai's eyes flashed as they stopped before a small fountain. "The water here is very clear."

"We're using the underground water," Zhang Dan Shui replied. He felt glad that he had already had the basic understanding of this city after being briefed by the other officials. It seemed that they were all looked upon him quite favorably after they knew that he used to be a palace official.

It was not that strange for palace official to be sent out.

Since he still kept a rather high position even though this was a rather underdeveloped city, the other officials all respected him. It was a completely different attitude compared to the one he saw in the palace.

"That's quite interesting."

Nan Luo felt like yawning. He looked to the side. "Is there any interesting plants over there? Hua'er, would you like to see?"

"Official Zhang, are we allowed to pick the flowers here?" Nan Hua asked.

Zhang Dan Shui smiled. "Yes, you can."

The gardener at the side nearly choked when he heard that but he was too afraid to complain. He knew very well that these young children were not people whom he could offend.

But the flower…

Boo hoo, couldn't they let the flowers off?

Nan Luo grinned. "In that case, I'll not be polite. Allow me to pick some flowers, Officials Zhang."

"Yes."

Feng Ao Kuai blinked his eyes then turned to look at Feng Ao Si. "Brother, can you please call Grandfather to tell him that we'll head back soon?"

Zhang Dan Shui really wanted to say that they could just call a servant to do that but Feng Ao Si had noticed his brother's gaze. Even though Feng Ao Si didn't really want to do that, he knew that he had no other choice. "I understand. Please don't take too long, Ao Kuai."

"I know." Feng Ao Kuai pursed his lips. When Feng Ao Si was finally gone and Nan Luo was still busy picking some flower a distance away, he turned to look at Nan Hua. "Hua'er, you can speak now."

Nan Hua nodded. She turned to look at Zhang Dan Shui and said clearly, "You have two task. Build street and establish connection."

Was there any other instruction?

The short order made Zhang Dan Shui rather speechless. He was struggling as he asked, "Is there any specific request?"

"This is the details for the road." Nan Hua took out a skin from her sleeve. She had already prepared this from a long time ago and only needed to pass to Zhang Dan Shui. "Follow the size properly."

It took her a long time to learn the difference of the measurement units in this world. After comparing it to the modern world, she came to understand the importance of calculation and the reason why it was so difficult to live in this era.

Every kingdom has different measurement unit.

And the standard for money was also quite different, making it a bit difficult for merchant to cross from one kingdom to another.

Thankfully, Nan Hua still managed to convert it and used the measurement of Fei Yang Kingdom.. If not, she might find it difficult to even instruct Zhang Dan Shui.
