Master Lan said, “In the Righteous Dao Village, the villagers are the same as you. They are criminals who were exiled from other places, so the population is more mixed. As for their personalities, there are good and bad. You can decide how to get along with them. The house you will be living in from now on is at the foot of the mountain over there. I’ll bring you there to take a look later.’
“The house is rented to you. You have to pay the rent in a month. If they didn’t, they could only be chased out and live in a shack. Other than the rent, you also spent a lot of money on food, clothing, and accommodation during your exile. These were all paid by the government in advance. When you earn money in the future, you will have to pay them back.”
The Shu family’s faces turned slightly pale when they heard this. They had not done anything, but they were already in debt.
Master Lan looked at their expressions with satisfaction. “You guys rest for the night. You have to get up to work tomorrow morning. Do you see the wasteland in front of us? What you need to do is to clear the wasteland.”
Pioneering? Although the Shu family was mentally prepared, they were still very anxious when they heard that they had to get up at dawn to do heavy farm work.
Lady Wang asked softly, “Master Lan, apart from clearing the wasteland, are there any other jobs? We are all women here, and we don’t know anything. I’m afraid we won’t be able to get much land in a day.”
Master Lan sneered. “Other jobs? Of course, there are also hunting, charcoal burning, and going to the mine to pick stones. Which one do you want to choose?”
Lady Wangs expression changed. In this way, clearing the wasteland was the most suitable job for them.
Master Lan said, “But you’re right. You’re all female criminals. I’m thinking that there is a job that suits you.”
As he spoke, Master Lan pointed at a group of women who were walking over. “Do you see them? You can also enter the music center like them. Although you still have to work when free, you’ll be doing some laundry and sewing. It won’t be as tiring as clearing the wasteland.”
Everyone followed Master Lan’s finger and saw women walking over with tired faces. No one spoke, but some of them were holding musical instruments in their hands. Some of them were dressed lightly and beautifully.
How could the Shu family not know what they did for a living?
What music club? It was just a brothel. It could even be said that it was worse than ordinary brothels. The folk brothels only needed to serve the guests, but after they were done serving the guests, there were still countless jobs waiting for them.
Master Lan smiled and said, “l heard that you were originally a woman from the government. You should be very proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. It just so happens that the music center lacks talents like you.”
“No, no, no, Master Lan, let’s go and explore the wasteland.” Lady Wang quickly took a step back with a dry smile and said, “Our man will come in a few days.”
Master Lan raised his eyebrows. “You don’t have to be so against it. There’s nothing wrong with entering the music center. The people you serve are not ordinary people. If you meet those high-ranking officials and dignitaries who value you, you might be able to leave here and live a good life again, right?” Then, he looked at Shu Yu meaningfully.
However, Shu Yu had already lowered her head and cursed in her heart.
She seemed to have been targeted, but she had deliberately made herself look unkempt and dirty.. How could Master Lan have chosen her at first glance?
