Chapter 138: The Camp of Good and Evil (15)

Bishop Xius said with a serious face: "Yechen, let you be responsible for the missionary work in the lower part of the South Shore District, the South Bank District is by no means a place where those demons can get their hands on it, this place belongs to the Holy See of Light." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Yechen stood up and said firmly, "Yes, teacher, the light of the Holy Light will definitely spread throughout the South Shore District, and it will also shine on the entire Langdeng City in the future." ”

Bishop Hus nodded and said, "Very good, go back, you can put other things aside for a while, this matter must be grasped quickly." ”

Yechen made a righteous statement again before going back.

Just returned to the dormitory, Catherine, who was pacing in the room, hurriedly greeted her and asked, "How is it, is something wrong?" "Early this morning, Bishop Hus sent someone to call Yechen over, and I don't know if something happened.

Yechen patted her hand and said, "It's okay." She gave Catherine a rough account of her conversation with Bishop Hughes.

"Bishop Hughes has put me in charge of the missionary work in the lower part of the South Bank." In the end, Yechen said quite proudly.

"What's the use of that?" Catherine said with some disapproval, "It's just a nominal sentence of responsibility, I didn't give you people, I didn't give you money, and the final results were all theirs, and we could only drink soup in the end." ”

Yechen sat on the sofa and asked, "Who did you listen to?" ”

Catherine said: "Listen to what Tang said, according to her, this is management skills, the most fundamental purpose of management skills is to spend the least and get the most, so don't look at the friendliness of the boss, really like a buddy, you propose to raise wages to try it, a cheap word comes out casually, just spit on it, the salary increase is to really increase the cost of manpower. ”

Ye Chen glanced at her and said, "Don't listen to Tang Wu's nonsense, it's useless to push that black-hearted exploiter's theory to the seventh dimension." ”

Catherine asked, "Why is it useless, I think it makes sense." ”

Ye Chen made a vicious expression and said, "Because every good stubble of the trialists in the seventh space is a group of man-eating tigers, do you know what the idiom of seeking skin with tigers means?" ”

"What do you mean?" Catherine asked cutely.

Yechen explained: "That is to say, although it is only a nominal appointment, it is still very useful to us, at least the lower part of the South Shore District is under our control during this time, don't look at the people there who are poor and tinkling, they can't even eat, but in this case, it is most likely to produce fanatical believers, and the number of believers determines our status in the Holy See of Light, understand?" ”

Catherine shook her head and said, "I don't understand very well, although this mission world has supernatural abilities, but there is no so-called power of faith, why do you want so many believers, especially such poor believers, what do you expect them to donate to you?" "The main reason why the Holy See has not succeeded in its mission in the lower part of the South Bank is that the Holy See actually looks down on the poor at all. The main audience of the Holy See's mission is still the nobles, at least the middle class, whose faith in the Holy Light can bring considerable wealth to the Holy See - in addition to their own donations, with the help of these powerful people, the Holy See can carry out all kinds of business in the Western Continent unimpeded, and even take advantage of the situation to suppress its own competitors. Of course, it takes money to keep the Holy See running, and to build such a magnificent church, so many salaries of the clergy, it all needs money, and nothing can be done without money.

This is really not easy to explain, Yechen thought about it and said: "Forget it, you will know in the future, it is right to do what I say." ”

Catherine nodded and said, "Okay, what should we do next?" ”

Yechen said: "There are two things that need to be done immediately, first, you go and find the little girl we met in the slum yesterday, she is a very important entry point for us to open up the situation in the slum, in addition, you help me check this address, No. 32 Bain Street, you should be very careful when checking this address, someone may be monitoring at this address, be careful, don't do it yourself." ”

Catherine asked, "Whose address is this?" ”

Yechen said: "I don't know, I was caught by the Inquisition yesterday for some reason, this is the only clue I found, I must figure out who is behind the calculation, and if we don't pull out this thorn, we won't be able to do anything in the future."

"Oh, okay, I'll be careful." Catherine said yes and went out. Yesterday's commotion was still very big, and Yechen was really not suitable for frequent outings at this time, so let's hide in the house.

Catherine was quite efficient, and she brought someone over at dinner in the afternoon. There was no way, I couldn't bring the little girl to the church, so Yechen had to find an opportunity to sneak out.

In the box of a tavern, Yechen once again saw the stubborn and righteous little girl.

The girl grew up in the slums, she lost her parents at a very young age, she didn't know whether she died or was abandoned, the memory of that period was already very vague, in short, she grew up eating a hundred family meals, she was not starved to death, she became a starvation corpse everywhere in the slums, relying on a little kindness from some people in the slums, from the precious rations to her. Because of this experience, the little girl is full of kindness to the people around her, because it is by kindness that she survives. Of course, there are more people in the slums who have no way to protect themselves, where kindness is too luxurious, and when the girl drags her hungry and tired body to ask for food, most of them are actually indifferent and even abusive, but these bad experiences have not affected her attitude towards goodness.

The little girl has never been to the upper part of the South Bank District when she is so old, and this is actually the living range of most of the slum slums in the lower part of the South Bank District, and the men are a little better, if they want to work hard to earn some money, they need to go to the dock area or various construction sites to work, and the place where they run is a little farther away, but women generally earn a little money by doing odd jobs for others, such as washing clothes, sewing clothes, etc., but the range is also in the lower part of the slums, except for some middle-class places where the slums gather.

At this time, there was already mass mechanical production in other large cities of the Western continent, and some textile factories would recruit women to work, but this production revolution did not take place here. The city is strategically located, on a major transportation route, guarding an important trade route, but there are no coal and iron deposits around, and it is located in a hilly area, whether it is the climate or the soil, there is no way to carry out large-scale agricultural planting, in the eyes of the profit-seeking capital, there is no value in investing in factories, and in this era, if all raw materials are transported by transportation, it will definitely lose money.

Without mechanical mass production, the poor would not have had the opportunity to learn how to organize and integrate their forces, they were not "workers", but more akin to the "peasants" bound by the land, in other words, they were better at "cheating". From the first time she saw the little girl, Yechen knew that this was a very good girl, not that she was not smart, but because her knowledge was really limited, she had not experienced a good education, and she did not have rich life experience.

Yechen opened the slightly dirty linen curtain, walked in, and saw Yechen coming, she had never been here, a little cramped little girl was excited, and the whole person froze for a moment, although it quickly eased up, but it still seemed a little unnatural.

Yechen waved her hand and motioned for Catherine to go out first, the little girl is now like a frightened deer, very insecure, at this time, if she faces two people, one of them is not very good at restraining her killing aura will make her heart full of vigilance, and it will be a little inconvenient for Yechen to "brainwash".

Catherine stood up and whispered, "Miss, I'm waiting at the door, and you can call me at any time if you have any orders." Catherine lowered her posture very low, mainly to support the identity of Yechen, and having a higher identity would always help in the conversation, which Catherine herself came up with.

Yechen glanced at her in his heart, waved his hand and didn't speak, isn't this asking for trouble for himself. At this time, she doesn't need others to support her identity, leaving the familiar environment, the little girl is already in a relatively weak state, what she needs at this time is a sense of affinity, the so-called noble identity can only bring distance, Yechen now wants to be a "friend" with her, and there is no need for any psychological distance.

After Catherine walked out of the door, Yechen sat up straight and relaxed, leaned on the back of the chair, let out a long sigh of relief, and said: "Catherine is one of my sisters, she grew up with me since she was a child, she is my guardian knight, and she is a knight who strictly abides by tradition, she talks about humility and loyalty all day long, she is very strict with me, she was a little naughty when she was a child, she didn't like to follow the arrangements of the family, sometimes she would sneak out to play, every time Catherine caught me back, It's really interesting to think about it now. This sentence is to eliminate the sentence that Catherine said when she left just now, mainly to show that Catherine's obedience to herself is only abiding by the rules of knightly loyalty, but in terms of actual psychology, Yechen is in a position of being managed. This is the opposite of Catherine's words, which is to lower her own status, and Yechen hopes to use this to bring her relationship with the little girl closer.

Sure enough, hearing Yechen say this, and looking at her relaxed state now, the little girl said with deep sympathy: "Miss Catherine is indeed a very strict person. ”

Yechen began to roll her eyes in her heart again, it seems that Catherine has scared the poor little girl a lot along the way, and blames herself for not making the situation clear in advance, for a person like a little girl with a strong spiritual belief in her heart, it is difficult to subdue her by her noble identity and strong strength, this kind of person often eats soft and does not eat hard, it is not hard to come, and she needs to be kind and shorten the distance between them.

Yechen nodded and said: "Yes, Catherine has received a strict knightly education since she was a child, and she seems a little dull and tactful in dealing with the world, but she is indeed a trustworthy friend, her best friend, as long as you are sincere, you will become good friends with her after a while." Yechen's words are hinting: Look, although Catherine has a bad temper, stinky and hard, and according to her identity, she is still my subordinate and a knight under my command, but I am a very kind person, making friends only depends on sincerity, and does not pay attention to the difference in status and status, only by treating each other sincerely can we become friends, so we can also become friends. The little girl doesn't need to understand these truths, but this sentence will subconsciously give her such a hint, the supernatural trialists who are really good at playing with people's hearts are disdainful, and they will not often use strong spiritual power to force hypnosis on others, that method is too coarse, too rough, and often has the opposite effect, in fact, it only takes some speaking skills to achieve their goals.

The little girl listened silently and did not speak, but her body did relax further.

Yechen picked up the teacup and poured a cup of tea for each of them, and the little girl thanked her and took a small sip. Don't think about how good this kind of tea is sent for free in a small place, although relying on the development of the transportation industry, local specialties can already be exchanged around the world, but here tea is still a thing that tends to be aristocratic, unlike its place of origin, even ordinary people are used to making tea and drinking tea, this tavern can provide some tea is already very good, it is impossible to return sweet, Yechen also took a sip, only tasted the bitterness of the mouth, but there was a satisfied smile on his face, pretending to be very knowledgeable.

Seeing the little girl's slightly frowning brows, Yechen smiled, opened the teapot lid, let her look at the tea inside, and said with some pride: "These leaves are called tea, which is a drink from the East, take some tea leaves, add some hot water to brew and you can get tea, this thing will not be used to drinking at first, but you can drink the taste if you drink too much, and drinking more tea is good for your body." ”

The little girl smiled shallowly and said, "You know a lot." ”

Yechen said helplessly: "This is not forced to learn at home, although I really don't feel any use, but it's useless for me to speak." It seems that the previous words still worked, and the little girl didn't think that Yechen was showing off, but sincerely sighed that she knew a lot.

The little girl said, "It's good to know more." ”

Yechen said with a smile: "When I was a child, I didn't understand it, I felt that there were too many tasks assigned at home, and I always wanted to go out to play." (To be continued.) )
