Chapter 4 Ruins beneath the prosperity

Ilderley ordered the woman a more expensive drink, and after paying everyone's bills, Ilderley left the bar.

As soon as they came out, they were almost hit by a cart full of huge goods, these low-level working people, vulgar and hard-working. The man scolded Ildelai for why he didn't look at it, and went on pushing his cart to do his job. Ildelai didn't have the same acquaintance with that person, and lately he had often gone to experience life alone in places where the real underprivileged lived, knowing that the heavy work he did might be the sole breadwinner of the low-income family.

The huge gap between the rich and the poor is constantly playing out in this seemingly prosperous city, and the rich die and the poor die.

Ildelai also had a taste of being looked down upon, and that was the first time he went to the kind of shop where he made clothes for the aristocratic and wealthy merchants. The shop is indeed high-end, but the waitress is almost awesome, and she looks like she is on top. She looked down on Ildelai, just by looking at Ildelai's dress and the appearance of a foreigner, and looked down on him, as if the shop was opened by this waitress.

A similar situation has been encountered by Ildelai in some slightly more upscale restaurants. At that time, a young couple dressed in ordinary clothes finally saved some money and made up their minds to go to that upscale restaurant for dinner. The waiter may see that the little couple is dressed very ordinary, and ignore the little couple in every way, and people have to look at her color after spending money. The waiter immediately looked like a pug to those rich people. Ildelai couldn't stand it, and said to the young couple that their money bags had dropped. This was deliberately done by Ildelai, and there were a hundred gold dragon coins in it.

However, the young couple said that it was not theirs, and gave the money bag to the waiter.

The waiter softened a little disdain, seeing that no one paid attention to saying that it was for the owner, but in fact, he was selfish.

There is no owner, it was deliberately given to the young couple by Ildelai. In this case, Ildelai hurriedly finished eating and paid for the dishes at the young couple's table. It was enough to give them a surprise meal for free, and Ildelai left the restaurant. Of course, the waiter's unsolicited gold coins would not only be useless, but might also cost him his life, because the gold coins had already been exchanged for poisonous bags of worms. Sometimes, don't take it that doesn't belong to you, it's useless to take it.

On another occasion, Ildelai dressed up as an ordinary person and ate in a dirty and messy shop in the slums. That small shop is one of the more popular shops in the local area, and many people eat in it. The boss's attitude is very arrogant, seeing that Ilderlai is a foreigner, he will rip off Ilderlai in various ways, and it is also a bit of a forced buying and selling. It was a big bully, but Ildelai didn't eat anything from that store, and the soup was immediately recognized by Ildelai as having a happy herb in it. It's no wonder that diners are so full of praise for this restaurant, and can put up with the bad attitude of the fat pig-like owner.

It's just that I heard that the small shop later caught fire, and it burned all the way to the ground, and the fat pig-like fierce boss was burned to a charred corpse, and the key thing is that the house next to it didn't have any sparks at all, and it burned down this store alone.

Another problem with this bustling city is that many people don't do real work. Everyone is doing some kind of show, scratching their heads, deceiving others, economic and financial work, and so on that has no practical value at all. The most ridiculous thing is that there is also a kind of person who can also make money by performing and eating. You heard it right, every day with a different meal, performing at the bazaar, and the key is that fools give them tips, and there are no less.

The reason why everyone is engaging in fiction is because fiction is more profitable than practical. There are also people who deliberately wear strange costumes, show off everywhere, want to attract the attention of others, and even bring accompanying painters to paint their beautiful figures, which is really disgusting.

There are also men with red lips and white faces, and the appearance of half-men and not women is also disgusting.

Passing by a red-light district, a rampaging luxury carriage rushed frantically towards Ildelai, who was walking well, and kept shouting loudly.

"Get out of the way!" the coachman was arrogant and arrogant with his own carriage for the nobles

But what people didn't expect was that the legs of the galloping horse suddenly burst, and the entire richly decorated carriage instantly overturned and fell to pieces.

The coachman died with his skull shattered and fell at Ildelai's feet, who continued walking without blinking an eye.

Not far away, he saw a shop that traded in skins and meat. The old mother took a few thugs and pressed the head of a girl who seemed to be an adult into the toilet, kept beating her, and poured water into her toilet. But this is normal, it is very likely that this woman herself is also in debt, but it is also possible that she is really forced to become a prostitute.

Ildelai doesn't want to care, people have their own fate, each has its own fate, what if he saves her today?

In a shop in the red-light district, Ildra also meets the offspring of an upstart who is super capable of flaunting his wealth. exaggerated gold ornaments, spending money like dirt, telling others everywhere that he is rich.

However, Ildrair felt that the more such fools the better, so that they would not starve to death.

In short, Ilderley saw so much and learned a lot during this time. For example, people at the bottom beg grandpa to sue grandma for their children to receive a good education, spending a lot of money, but they don't think that this is useless at all. I also saw the captive beasts in the zoo, the painful loss of freedom. The abominable humans, like the city, are full of anger and power, and they are disgusting like a giant maggot.

Of course, Ildelai has also encountered a small shop of conscience, doing business well, and honesty is the foundation. It was a small shop owned by a low-level cat-man merchant, where Ilderley had a drink and got another bottle. This cat man couple worked hard with a kitten man in a foreign country, working hard every day to run a good shop, good quality and low price. Taking advantage of their inattention, Ildra left a letter and a small bag of gold coins, the contents of which were probably known only to the cat-man couple.

Ildelai also saw the industrious peasants, who worked hard, and when they ate, the ordinary meals were very fragrant, and they were happy from the bottom of their hearts.

Seeing the beauty of these bottoms, Ildelai did not want to destroy the city completely, he saw hope and love. These people don't know about the corrupt, dirty, and disgusting things at the top, but it's really good, and it's also a kind of protection.

It can really be said that under the prosperity is all ruins, and under the powerful are all white bones!
