Zhong Cheng's plan is simple and clear.

"Then I will be responsible for finding out the places in Liangcheng where intelligence can be collected. I heard that some local organizations can pay them to help find people secretly. If we report more places, we will always find some clues. "

"Brother, I want to follow you too." Wang Tiedan raised his hands and feet in agreement.

What the elder brother said is very attractive once you hear it.

He dared to be interested in various organizations and forces in Liangcheng, but he didn't dare to go there alone. With his elder brother taking the lead, he could follow and gain experience.

Later, their respective plans were also arranged.

Cao'er stayed with Qi Nan as her assistant, while Qi Xiuxiu and Ma Qian went to find the way first and inquire about the missing children along the way.

Zhong Cheng and Wang Tiedan went to Liangcheng's black market and various trading chambers to learn about the situation.

Among the escort ladies, one part stayed with Qinan and the others, and the other part stayed with Qi Xiuxiao and the others.

The next morning.

Qi Xiuxiu and Ma Qianxian set off with their people, and Qi Nan and the others also got up and prepared to do the first big thing - renting a house.

They also put a lot of thought into choosing the location of the house. Just looking at the low price is definitely not enough.

The safety of the home, its size, and accessibility to nearby roads should all be taken into consideration.

Qi Nan and the others finally locked in a house, and after communicating with the person who rented the house (similar to a modern intermediary), when they were about to go to the person who rented the house to see the house, they were turned away when they came to see the house.

"Old Sun, I brought someone to look at the house. This time it's a group of young people who gave me a starting price. You will definitely be satisfied."

The landlord thought that after the deal was completed, he would get a remuneration, so he worked harder to broker the deal.

Unexpectedly, the landlord who rented the house suddenly changed his mind after having agreed upon it before.

"I won't sell it, I won't sell it. I won't sell it as long as this group of people comes. Go back where you came from. Don't settle here, otherwise I won't be able to spare you."

After the landlord finished speaking, he slammed the door, leaving the person who led the room confused.

He smiled awkwardly at Qi Nan and the others and said, "It doesn't matter, let's go to the next house and have a look. His family is not the only one who has a house in Liang City."

Immediately afterwards, they rushed to their next home.

But this time it was the same ending. Before they could talk about renting a house, when those people saw it was Qin Nan and the others, they waved their hands and drove them out. No matter what, they were unwilling. Rent a house to them.

After several consecutive failures, the landlord finally realized something was wrong.

"Did you offend someone? Why do these people look at you as if they have seen a ghost?

I have a house but I refuse to rent it to you. This is not right! Where in the world is there any reason to leave money without making any money? "

"No! We have only been in Liangcheng for less than two days. How can we have any chance to offend people? If we have to say something to offend people, I'm afraid we will only..."

Wang Tiedan suddenly remembered the scene at the gate of the city.

"What? Who did you offend?"

The landlord was also very anxious to know who this group of people had offended to make these homeowners so afraid that they avoided them like the plague.

"If we have to offend, we only had a conflict with the city guards at the city gate before, but they all apologized to us, so it doesn't count as an offence.

And do they really have that much ability to stop these people from renting houses to us? "

Wang Tiedan disagreed. If this was the case, wouldn't these city guards have reached the level of T1 that covers the sky with their hands?

But the face of the person who took the house changed drastically at this moment.

He pointed at Qinan and the others and asked in disbelief: "It turns out that the group of ignorant strangers that everyone is talking about are you! I won't do this business either, so you can wish yourselves the best of luck."

After saying that, he left Qinan and the others without giving them a chance to react, leaving these ignorant people behind.

"This group of people is really too much. Aren't they just city guards? As for scaring them like that? If you don't make money, you are like a turtle."

Wang Tietan stomped his feet on the spot angrily. If he hadn't been unfamiliar with the place, he would have really wanted to take them and talk to these people.

Qinan is much calmer at the moment, but a city guard dares to be so arrogant. Do they really think they can defeat them like this?

They must win this Liangcheng.

I don't believe it anymore. They will not give up until they rent a house today.

Later, they went to many places to look at houses one after another, but the results were not satisfactory.

As long as it is in the center of the city, no matter how high their prices are, no one is willing to rent to them.

Qi Nan made a major decision in anger. She wanted to apply for building a house by herself.

As she said, she asked the guards to find out the place in Liangcheng's official office that was responsible for household registration and land rights, and then led the people to set off.

The government office here is very splendid and luxurious. There are two large stone lions standing at the entrance of the government office. On the right side of the stone lions stands a drum. When you step into the door and see the four characters "Mingjing Gaohang" hanging above, it feels like a rush to your face. The solemn feeling here.

"Who is he? What's the purpose of coming here?"

The little yamen officer in charge of registration stopped Qinan and the others.

Qinan was in a bad mood and explained his purpose of coming concisely.

She couldn't believe that even the people in the government offices were afraid of the city guards. She didn't believe that the people in Liang City were so cliquey and collusive.

"We are going to the city to do business, but we can't rent a house, so we plan to buy a piece of land to build a house. I have a separate female household, so I can buy land in other places to build a house under my household."

The young yamen servant was very surprised. This was the first time since he started working that he saw a woman buying land to build a house. She was also a woman with a female household. This was really strange.

However, he is still happy when someone comes to buy the land. If the negotiation can be concluded, he can get a lot of income.

So he happily led a group of people in.

The officials responsible for household registration and land rights are all in a room. This room is very large, but there are several tall and large wooden shelves erected around it. Those wooden shelves are filled with bamboo slips. It is difficult for people to move around in it. I feel like the space is a little cramped.

The officials were all hunched over their desks, scribbling on bamboo slips, each holding an abacus. While they were writing, they did not stop fiddling with the abacus in their hands.

When Qi Nan and the others walked in, no one looked up at them. She sighed inwardly. It seems that regardless of ancient or modern times, migrant workers are always the ones who work hardest.
