The wind is blowing and the sun is shining, and the scenery is rushing westward①. Inadvertently, the time comes to February 15th.

This is a lucky day, this morning, Xie Xingchen finally received the resume from the planter.

Shen Haiyun, 24 years old, graduated from the School of Human Civilization and Green Plants, and has the title of "Junior Planter".

The conditions are quite good.

But here comes the question, why would such a person come to a "little-known" small manor for an interview?

With such doubts, Xie Xingchen sent a holographic interview invitation.

During the interview in the afternoon, after all the questions were asked, Xie Xingchen said bluntly: "Mr. Shen, why did you choose Thorn Manor based on your conditions?"

The Thorn Manor is the Xie Family Manor.

Xie's Manor is not bad, but to be honest, Xie's Manor is not famous enough to become an exception in the employment situation in the industry.

According to the past situation, students from colleges with majors ranked in the top 123 generally would not choose this kind of private plantation manor, because the worst option for this group of students is to work for the planet master or enter the establishment to become a member of the drought-flood guarantee income.Only students who have their own manor will work in the manor after graduation.

And Shen Haiyun graduated from the School of Green Plants, which is the second-ranked planter school in human civilization. Its planting major can even compete with the first school. If there are talents, it can occasionally beat the planting department of the first school.

Shen Haiyun smiled wryly, maybe he wanted to hide it, but in the end he said honestly: "Because I was blocked by someone from the Planters Association."

This sentence was like a signal that the silence had been unsealed. After Shen Haiyun said this difficult sentence, he calmed down and briefly explained the matter.

The thing is really simple, in short it's an unlucky being fancy story.

The unlucky one was Shen Haiyun, and the person who fell in love with him was a senior member of the Botanical Association.

Because Shen Haiyun was unwilling, that person used his connections to force Shen Haiyun to have nowhere to go, and finally came back to beg himself.

Unexpectedly, Shen Haiyun would rather go to an unknown manor for an interview than go back and ask for help.

Shen Haiyun smiled, and said indifferently: "Boss, in fact, this matter can be said to be big or small, as long as you don't tell the outside world that I am with you, then this matter will probably be over."

There are many large and small manors in the Star Alliance, is it possible that that idiot still has the ability to check all of them?

Hehe, if he had this ability, he would not be in the Plant Association.

Although, as a planter, he didn't want to complain about the Plant Association, the reality was that the Plant Association was a marginal department.

Xie Xingchen frowned, and said in disbelief, "Are all the people in the Botanical Association so weird?"

It is obviously a bright and formal organization that can do great things, but it makes itself as dark as a rat in the gutter, targeting here or there all day long.

Xie Xingchen: Chick.

Shen Haiyun's face was expressionless, but her heart was full of anxiety.

Looking at the silent Xie Xingchen opposite, his eyes gradually dimmed just like he had failed countless interviews.

But just when Shen Haiyun was disappointed, a voice like the sound of heaven sounded from the opposite side.

"Congratulations on being hired. From tomorrow to next weekend, you can choose a day to report to Thorn Manor at will. The remuneration is exactly the same as that on the recruitment information form. In addition, there are additional benefits. The manor housekeeper will explain to you in detail when you report."

Shen Haiyun suddenly raised her head, looking extremely surprised.

His beautiful eyes looked at Xie Xingchen shiningly, his gentle and handsome face was full of excitement.

Shen Haiyun said in disbelief, "I was really admitted?"

He was admitted on the premise that he clearly said that he had offended a certain leader of the Botanical Association?

Thorn Manor, Thorn Manor!

He was admitted to Thorn Manor!

Shen Haiyun was so excited that he couldn't be more excited, even after logging out of the holographic mall in a trance, he still felt that he was dreaming.

It wasn't until he received the employment notice from the Thorn Manor with the official seal that he packed up his things and moved to the Thorn Manor overnight.

...

Satisfied looking at the cheapest store he bought in Xingwang Mall, Xie Xingchen backhandedly gave himself a thumbs up.

"Look at getting rich, I'm so smart, not only did I not reveal my identity, I also saved a lot of money for my future self." Xie Xingchen was so proud of himself.

As a chicken thief, he is very good at taking advantage of the loopholes in the Starnet Mall, and successfully obtained the wool of the Starnet Mall.

Xie Xingchen bought the cheapest initial storefront in the entire Xingwang Mall with only a little money, and then spent 10,000 to 20,000 star coins to decorate it casually, and after choosing the private mode, he used this initial storefront as a holographic interview room.

In this way, apart from buying the storefront and decoration money, he will use this interview room for free in the future!

Isn't this more comfortable than frequenting the holographic interview room and spending a lot of money?

It's amazing to get rich.

His master can always impress people with his "stinginess" in some inexplicable places.

To be honest, isn't his master short of money?Why does he want to always try to extract money?

Fa Cai doesn't understand, but Xie Xingchen who understands has no time to chat with Fa Cai.

After he laughed and praised himself a few times, he immediately sent a message to the only big man he knew——Ludwig.

After confirming that Ludwig was free, Xie Xingchen immediately sent Ludwig a video communication request.

Seeing the video invitation, Ludwig made a pause gesture to his subordinates who were reporting to him, and then entered the rest room next door.

After connecting to the communication, Ludwig's thin lips inadvertently curved slightly.

He looked at Xie Xingchen seriously, looking at this human being who claimed to be his best friend, the indifference that once existed in Ludwig's eyes faded away.

Ludwig went straight to the point and said, "Xingchen, what's wrong?"

Xie Xingchen didn't think there was anything wrong with Ludwig's direct question. Hearing Ludwig's question, he also said bluntly: "Luther, I want to ask, what should I do to make it quick and convenient?"What about the complaint against the Plant Society for Human Civilization?"

Ludwig frowned slightly when he heard the words, and was inexplicably displeased with the plant association that Xie Xingchen was talking about.

He knew the person across the way, and knew that he would not seek trouble for nothing. The reason why he wanted to complain to them was only one premise—they provoked him, and they provoked him more than once.

I have to say that Ludwig really knows Xie Xingchen well enough, and the Botanical Association has indeed provoked him several times, both explicitly and secretly.

Ludwig's voice was inexplicably cold: "Are they embarrassing you? I'm a senior executive of the Star Alliance. You can complain to me directly."

Xie Xingchen:?

Does this count as a complaint to their top boss?

Xie Xingchen didn't understand the division of labor within the Star Alliance. Seeing what Ludwig said, he half-believed and told about the illegal operations of some people in the Plant Association against him and his employees.

At the end, Xie Xingchen said cautiously: "Luther, what, do you have any complaint letter format? Or should I write a complaint letter and send it to the relevant work mailbox?"

Seeing that Ludwig pursed his lips, Xie Xingchen had no choice but to explain: "Luther, it's not that I don't believe you, I know you have the ability to intervene, but after all you are not in charge of this matter? It may not be right to intervene at will.Well, left and right are not particularly important, it would be best if I can solve it myself."

Xie Xingchen seldom troubled others, and he didn't like to trouble others. He really didn't want Ludwig to help him settle this matter by coming forward.

But just like what he just asked, he simply wanted to find a fast and effective complaint channel.

Otherwise, he was afraid that the complaint letter would be sent to the Botanical Association through the ordinary complaint channel and let them handle it by themselves.

After all—the fact that A complains to B, and it turns out that B is the respondent and also the complaint handler is not just a joke in reality.

Ludwig was persuaded by Xie Xingchen. He was not obsessed with helping to deal with this matter. He yelled in the work group and sent it to Xie Xingchen after receiving the mailbox of the department that inspected the complaint letter. He got a love from Xie Xingchen.After the emoticon package, returned to the group.

[Ludwig Alsop: There have been a lot of illegal operations in various departments of the Star Alliance recently. Please handle the complaints in a timely and fair manner.】

In the front, asked someone to complain about the mailbox, and later, asked someone to deal with it fairly.

No matter how you look at it, there is something wrong, the group is lively this time.

[Siren: What's the matter?Someone bullied you?】

【Osphy: Who doesn't have eyes?Are robots bullying?】

[Zong Zong: Recently, illegal operations have occurred frequently in various places. We should really tighten the strings of those below.】

[Gong Lingyun: I couldn't agree more, especially those little guys who are ready to move, they really should be beating and beating these days.】

"..."

In this way, a vigorous "beating activity" that lasted for two years started today.

As the "representative" of the crackdown period, the Plant Association for Human Civilization has ushered in a big change within two months. Those who are dead or not are dismissed from their posts, jailed, or exiled according to the degree of their crimes.

Of course, this is something to be said for the time being.

Now, Xie Xingchen is just a little planet owner who hopes that the above can handle complaints fairly.

It took him half a day to make all the evidence into a document and upload it to the reporting mailbox.

He didn't know that he had become the butterfly with wings that set off the "Strike Hard Storm".

After uploading the evidence, Xie Xingchen let out a sigh of relief: "It's finally done."

Reporting is indeed a hassle!

It took him half a day just to sort out the evidence.

But Xie Xingchen believed it was worth half a day!

At least those mosquitoes that have been buzzing around my ears will be less this time, right?

Xie Xingchen thought uncertainly.

Turn off the light and sleep.

next day

Xie Xingchen was woken up by the system notification sound.

February 16th is a memorable day.

On this day, Chang'an City was finally completed.

[System: Ding Dong, Chang'an City has been completed.】

Putting on the cashmere sweater and windproof coat, Xie Xingchen wrapped a houndstooth scarf and stepped on the hoverboard.

Departing from Xie's house in the Chang'an workshop, Xie Xingchen arrived at the gate of Chang'an city which was covered with thick fog a few minutes later.

When his hand touched the layer of thick fog, a strong wind blew up and the thick fog gradually dispersed.

The majestic city wall soars into the sky like a giant dragon coiled on the ground. There are countless beacon towers on the city wall, and domineering dragon flags are hung on the beacon towers. When the wind blows, the flags rustle, as if they are about to spread their wings and fly.

Viewed from a high altitude, Chang'an City, including Chang'an workshops, is in a square shape, and each square city has a designated location. From the top down, Chang'an City is composed of one after another, and it is very well organized.Yes, it is the kind of design that makes obsessive-compulsive disorder feel comfortable at a glance.

Chang'an City is divided into outer city and inner city.

The inner city is the imperial city, and the outer city is the outer city

Yes, that's right, Xie Xingchen didn't expect that the Chang'an City given by the system could actually build the imperial palace for him!

The countless exquisite palaces make people dizzying and at the same time make people understand why so many people want to become kings crazily since ancient times!

After staying in the majestic palace for several hours, Xie Xingchen reluctantly left after visiting.

After leaving, he came to the most famous place in Tang Chang'an - Zhuque Avenue.

Zhuque Street was called "Tianmen Street" in the Tang Dynasty, or Tianjie for short.It extends from the Suzaku Gate of the imperial city of Chang’an City in the Tang Dynasty. It is the central axis of Chang’an City.The term Tianjie is named after Han Yu's "Early Spring" ③.

Zhuque Avenue is the only street leading from the outer city to the inner city. It is only five kilometers long but 150 meters wide. It is one of the most prosperous places in Chang'an.

In addition, there are countless landmark buildings in Chang'an City, such as Daming Palace, Huae Building, Big Wild Goose Pagoda, Small Wild Goose Pagoda, Qinglong Temple, Daci'en Temple and so on.

Among these buildings, Huae Tower and Big Wild Goose Pagoda are the most famous and beautiful.

Huae Building, the full name of Huae Xianghui Building, its name comes from "The Book of Songs·Xiaoya·Changdi"—"Changdi's Huahua, Ebuweiwei. All people today are like brothers."④

The Huae Building is the most magnificent palace building in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. It is known as "the first building in the prosperous Tang Dynasty"..⑤

The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is even more interesting, because it is a Buddhist pagoda built by Tang Xuanzang after learning Buddhist scriptures from the West.

Yes, that's right, it is the master of the great sage, Tang Seng who is often captured by monsters.

After he came back from studying scriptures, he presided over the construction of this pagoda in Chang'an, and enshrined all the scriptures he took from "Western Paradise" in it.

Needless to say, Xie Xingchen, who likes Sun Houzi, is really curious about the Big Wild Goose Pagoda with a deep affection.

The specific performance is that he stayed in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda for a long time, wandered up and down, and wanted to see if there were really scriptures from "Western Paradise" in it!

However

There are no scriptures!

Not to mention scriptures, there is not even a piece of paper in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.

The empty Big Wild Goose Pagoda looks Zen-like and magnificent on the outside, but when you enter, you find that the inside is extremely shabby, with nothing but the necessary decorations.

Well, this is very suitable for sightseeing, this empty space can stand a lot of tourists!

Xie Xingchen touched his chin and smiled very unkindly.

After leaving the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, Xie Xingchen walked towards the Small Wild Goose Pagoda and Qinglong Temple like a tourist.

After seeing these famous attractions, he began to walk through the streets and alleys of Chang'an City on a hoverboard.

Until the evening, Xie Xingchen still had something to say.

Maybe in the future, like Dignini, he can find someone to play various roles in Chang'an City and hold various activities, so that this ancient city that has been silent for many years can become a holy place in people's minds again?

February 16th is destined to be a day that belongs to Xie Xingchen's imagination.

He even dreamed of Chang'an City in his dreams.

The powerful and prosperous age, the chic literati, the peerless beauties who overwhelm the country and the city, as well as the countless visitors from all over the world, barbarians...

In his dream, he became an ordinary Chang'an resident who was born and bred, and he lived peacefully in this prosperous and ancient city.

...

On February 17, Xie Xingchen spent a day wandering around every corner of Chang'an City. On the basis of the map of Chang'an City given by the system, he added many interesting little signs that only he knew.

This is his unique interest in life, and it is also Xie Xingchen's alternative and lovely way of recording every bit of life.

At noon on February 18th, Xie Xingchen finally produced a map of Chang'an City that belonged only to him.

After the map was made, Xie Xingchen even excitedly ran to Daming Palace to take a nap.

However, because of the lack of luxurious soft furnishings, Xie Xingchen's dream of "enjoying emperor-like treatment" was finally shattered. He got up from the dragon bed stiffly, and returned to his home in Chang'an workshop with a sigh.

In the afternoon of that day, Xie Xingchen suddenly remembered an important thing - Ginkgo tree!

Part of the reason he was looking forward to the completion of the construction of Chang'an City was because of the ginkgo tree!

It turned out that he was lucky, after the construction of Chang'an City, he couldn't remember anything, instead he ran to be a tourist on his own!

Now that the tour is over, he only thinks about the business. It's really a crime!

Obviously he was still marking the streets and alleys of Chang'an City before.

Obviously this life interest/interest can be combined with work, but he is lucky, he just can't think of it!The work that can be done by the way has to be done again.

Xie Xingchen: Lie down.jpg

It's really suffocating just thinking about it.

Sighing, Xie Xingchen went out again.

According to memory and what was shown on the map, Xie Xingchen consciously went to several famous scenic spots in Chang'an City.

These well-known scenic spots are worthy of being the famous scenic spots in Chang'an. They all have ginkgo trees in their radiation range.

And these ginkgo trees grow very tall without exception!

Among them, the ginkgo tree in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda is even thicker than the one in the center of the Chang'an workshop. It is conservatively estimated that the tree is at least several thousand years old.

Xie Xingchen: "..."

In front of it, maybe I am just the grandson of the grandson's grandson... Bah!

These ginkgo trees made Xie Xingchen not worried about not being able to complete his illustrated book task at all, but it made Xie Xingchen feel distressed.

After several struggles, Xie Xingchen was still reluctant to sell the fruit from such an ancient ginkgo tree, so he decided to cross the streets and alleys to find small ginkgo trees to make up for.

It is very possible for Xie Xingchen to do this, because he has seen too many ginkgo trees in this city.

He didn't know if there were really so many ginkgo trees in Chang'an City in the past, but his Chang'an City has almost become a world of ginkgo trees.

Ginkgo trees, large and small, are planted in every scenic spot, every street, even along the river and on both sides of the road.

The golden yellow leaves fluttered in the wind, paving one golden road after another. This color... resembles the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and also resembles Chang'an.

Xie Xingchen did not blindly cross the streets and alleys, he found the street full of ginkgo trees in his memory, after several searches, he finally found it.

After noting the location of this street, he completed the task.

In the evening, the orange-red sunset glow covered the entire sky. As time passed, the sunset glow became darker and darker, and finally it was as thick as burnt ashes until it turned black.

The winter night came very early, and when Xie Xingchen realized that it was time to go home, the night had already fallen.

...

February 18th is the last day of the Earth Firm's New Year Carnival.

All the customers who haven't got the prize they wanted are frantically trying to find more chances to draw.

This morning, Fa Cai led the robot to assemble the Chinese New Year surprise gift package, which was originally planned to be delivered to the 100 winning customers as soon as the morning passed.

However, at this moment, Xie Xingchen had a new idea.

He found Zhang Yu, sent her many photos of Chang'an City that he had taken, and asked Zhang Yu to use this photo to make a postcard within ten hours. The specific format and content were not limited.

But because there is no such thing as a postcard in Interstellar, Xie Xingchen drew a format casually, and sent Zhang Yu a screenshot of the postcard that Bunny had sent him before.

Zhang Yu received an overtime notice early in the morning on weekends. Zhang Yu, who works from home, not only did not scold the boss, but was full of energy and energy.

The question is that the boss gave too much!

She can now earn hundreds of thousands of star coins a month!

One month's salary is almost as much as worked in that company for a year before.

And she still works from home, as long as she can complete the work within the specified time, then she is very free, anyway, the boss doesn't care whether she spends the rest of the time playing games or sleeping.

Moreover, the workload of the Earth Trading Company is not heavy, almost only one-third of the workload of the last job. Not to mention that Party A's father will never send back her design drafts for no reason and ask her to draw again. After she draws countless timesLet me say "I think the first version is better".

For these three reasons alone, Zhang Yu felt that joining the Earth Firm was the most correct decision she had ever made in her life!

Opening the picture sent by the boss energetically, Zhang Yu was overwhelmed with inspiration the moment he saw the antique Chang'an City.

She had never seen such a beautiful ancient city, but she felt a great cultural shock at just one glance.

She couldn't say anything literary, but she subconsciously knew that this city must be very literary!

Zhang Yu couldn't help slowing down his breathing, and looked at the ancient city in front of him fascinated.

She rubbed the dynamic photo repeatedly in fascination, her face flushed with excitement.

It took more than an hour for her to wake up from the state of inspiration.

Constantly looking for the most suitable scene for a postcard from the beautiful and breath-taking photos, Zhang Yu chose several angles, and then painted quickly.

Compared with the ancient and majestic city in the photos, the Q-like Chang'an City in Zhang Yu's works has a different kind of innocence, childishness and cuteness.

After spending seven or eight hours, Zhang Yu finally drew a satisfactory Chang'an City.

She imitated the postcard format of that Bunny and made many adjustments, and finally made a delicate and beautiful postcard!

The postcard has both front and back sides. The front is a Q version of Chang'an City that is rounded and unified with the style of the gift box, while the back is the symbol of Chang'an City - the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.

The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is placed on the right because there needs to be room for writing on the left, but this does not mean that the left is just a monotonous blank.

The picture on the left is processed, with the blue sky above and the golden wilderness below. While it has a sense of wildness, it also echoes with the surrounding buildings.

After receiving the sample postcard, Xie Xingchen immediately smiled.

It's better to pay a huge sum of money than ask for warmth!

Satisfaction doesn't need words, just a huge red envelope!

Xie Xingchen saw the postcard and sent Zhang Yu a big red envelope without saying a word.

Then he sent the postcard to the gift box maker, waved his hand, and said directly: "Do your best and make me 100,000 of the best and most exquisite postcards within 3 hours."
