Blind Date in Time and Space

Chapter 17 Xia Shumin’s imaginative mind

After confirming his resignation with Huang Hao, Chen Ji continued to work.

Huang Hao said that he was still in contact with investors and said that if he could sell it in the next few days, he would still distribute the money to him.

But Chen Ji is not looking forward to this.

It’s not that after you have five million, you will look down on the hundreds of thousands.

It's the investor's money. If you want to get it, you will most likely have to sign a contract and continue working for the company for a few years before you can get it.

Chen Ji didn't want to waste this time, so he simply resigned.

After confirming his resignation, he went to work much more casually.

First, he no longer needs to work overtime, and there will be no new work assigned to him.

Second, he could fish openly at work. Considering that he took the initiative to give up his shares, Huang Hao would not criticize him.

In fact, it is easy to spot people who take the initiative to resign.

If someone is suddenly no longer afraid of his boss and dares to take the initiative to confront his superiors, he will not bother to say hello to the company boss when he sees him in the morning, he will not say "received" in the company group, and he will have a very casual attitude at work.

Then there is a high probability that he has already submitted his resignation letter and is waiting to leave.

"Astana hasn't sent a message yet?"

Chen Ji took out his phone and took a look.

In the morning, Zhou Wan greeted him after getting up, and Chen Ji brought her a breakfast. Now Zhou Wan has lived a life with an electric blanket, hiding in the basement to read and study in peace.

The young lady Xia Shumin also sent a message, saying that she wanted to ask some people if they could buy some weapons for self-defense.

Chen Ji is quite looking forward to it. After all, the world she lives in advocates martial arts and many people practice martial arts. It shouldn't be difficult to find a good sword.

"Ms. Xia, there's no need to worry. I haven't found a way to give you a gift yet. It may take some time."

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen, I have a solution, little girl."

"Do you have any idea?"

Xia Shumin didn't answer his question. Chen Ji guessed that she was talking about how to get weapons.

What he didn't know was.

Zhao Guo, Yongkang County.

After thinking about it all night, Xia Shumin finally made up her mind to touch the line on the first page of "Acacia Poetry Collection" with her fingertips:

[Invite Chen Ji to meet]

Before being touched, Xia Shumin's little face was already red with embarrassment. After being touched, she tensed up even more nervously. She kept looking around, expecting and fearing someone with "short hair" and "weird dress." A young man who "doesn't read the Four Books and Five Classics" appears.

but no.

There is only one more line of prompts on the page:

The two worlds are trying to exchange information. Please wait. During this period, you may not be able to keep in touch with Chen Ji. Please wait patiently.

After Xia Shumin understood this sentence, she was a little dumbfounded.

It turns out that it's really not easy to meet up. If she hadn't invited him, he would have come over right away.

So, we won’t be able to exchange letters with Mr. Chen for a while?

She felt a little lost and lingered in the garden for a long time holding her poetry book.

night.

Xia Shumin was alone in the garden, reading with four lanterns hanging under the pavilion. Her slender and petite body was sitting upright, wearing a crescent white dress with a stand-up collar and double placket on her upper body, and a flower-and-bird horse face skirt on her lower body. , both delicate and quiet, elegant and dignified.

Although she looks younger than her actual age, she still has a ladylike charm, holding a book and reading with enthusiasm, which is particularly endearing.

"Miss."

Someone called her, Xia Shumin remained motionless, her eyes still looking at the poetry book, looking very fascinated.

When the man came close and put the tea in front of her, Xia Shumin realized that someone was coming, and without looking at her, she said:

"Cui Zhu, please put the tea away. I'll read for a while first."

The visitor did not answer, but stood beside her with a kind smile, seeming to say to himself: "What are you looking at, girl? She's so fascinated."

As she spoke, she moved her steps slightly, and her turbid eyes fell on the book Xia Shumin was reading.

Just one look and I was shocked.

Is this girl looking at a map?

Such a detailed map, but the place names on it are weird and specious.

Could it be a map made up by someone?

But it doesn't look like it.

what is going on?

"Miss, miss, here is this map..."

"Ah, it's Granny Love!"

Xia Shumin finally noticed that the person who came was not her maid, but her beloved mother-in-law.

Granny Qing had just come to the county magistrate's house less than a year ago, but she was trusted by her mother, who ostensibly asked her to take care of some maids. However, Xia Shumin heard from the talkative Luzhu that she had not been seen all day long, and she did not know what she was doing. What.

"Grandma Qing, why are you here to serve tea? Please sit down quickly."

Xia Shumin stood up and helped her.

This loving mother-in-law is about sixty or seventy years old, and her health is not good. Maybe she has an old relationship with her mother, so she is allowed to live in her old age and does not do anything on weekdays.

"The lady is really kind-hearted."

Mother-in-law Qing was not polite, she sat down with a smile and asked again: "Were you looking at the map just now? Grandma-in-law didn't think the map was drawn by someone from Zhao. Could it be made by barbarians or those from the Western Regions?"

The terrain is similar, but the place names are different. They can only come from other places.

"Um...uh, uh."

Xia Shumin hesitated, "It's about right. I also read it in a book and thought it looked weird, so I took a few more looks...Does mother-in-law want to see it?"

Now that this map has been discovered, I might as well show it to my mother-in-law.

Xia Shumin also tested it. The correspondence and chat records between her and Mr. Chen will only be displayed in front of her. After the lovesickness poem book leaves her for a period of time, the contents will disappear completely.

"That's fine."

Mother-in-law Qing smiled and said: "Grandma-in-law, I have traveled all over the country before. I have suffered a lot, and I am somewhat familiar with the vicinity of Zhao State."

Xia Shumin was so surprised that she opened the pages of the book in front of her and let her mother-in-law read it together.

"The south and the east are wrong."

Granny Qing laughed after taking a look at it. She pointed with her withered finger at the west edge of the map and said: "There are many islands here, such as Penglai, Pengqiu, and Fangzhang. They are all quite large islands, but they are not marked. The southern county of Zhao State The county has also lost a lot of land, I don’t know about it in the west...but there is such a vast land in the extreme north and extreme south?"

"I heard it's called the North and South Pole."

Xia Shumin whispered: "The entire continent is covered with ice and snow, and violent snowstorms blow all year round. No one can live in it. Only many huge animals with thick fur live on it. The ice there is thousands of meters thick. ...There may also be many rare spiritual herbs. Because there are no people, the spiritual herbs have grown for thousands or tens of thousands of years, and their medicinal effects are amazing."

The more Xia Shumin talked, the more excited she became, and her imagination was widening.

The first ones were told to her by Chen Ji, but the latter ones were made up by her own imagination.

Because in her opinion, there must be rare birds and animals in extremely cold and bitter places, as well as extremely precious herbs. Wannian Snow Ganoderma lucidum can be found everywhere.

"Thousands of meters of ice...how can it be such an amazing place?!"

"There is actually ten thousand years of spiritual grass?!"

Granny Qing's cloudy eyes burst out with a sharp light, her old face flushed, as if she couldn't wait to explore the North and South Pole, looking for the real ten thousand year old magic grass.

Xia Shumin was so frightened that she quickly grabbed her and told the beloved mother-in-law not to get excited, lest she sprained her foot after leaving the county gate before arriving at the South Pole.

She would never have imagined that at this time, on the ocean at the north and south ends, huge ice floes would quietly appear on the sea surface and drift around with the sea water.
