Chapter 8: Running to the Sea
Mo Fei is bothered by one thing......
That is, in this world, under normal circumstances, what kind of clothes should a normal person wear, well, this is really confusing.
In short, Mo Fei wore a white shirt, a long black jacket on the outside, ordinary black pants on the lower body, and a pair of short boots made of fawn skin on his feet...... Well, it doesn't really matter how you get dressed, but shoes are still important, at least not to slip your foot and fall into the sea from the boat.
After returning to Tyrol, he chose to stay closed, and two days later, he found Emisha, a young maid who had lost her job, and asked her out for a walk...... Mo Fei could see that this little girl's face looked very depressed, and the fact that the pirates killed Mr. Mayor brought a lot of distress to her life.
Emisha was a little curious, she didn't know what Mo Fei was looking for her, but she noticed that Mo Fei seemed to be a little different from before, but if she wanted to ask her what was different, she didn't know what to say.
Mo Fei was walking towards the back mountain, and Emisha had been following him, and he seemed a little silent along the way. As he walked, Mo Fei suddenly stopped, turned around and looked down on the town entrenched in the middle of the mountainside.
"I remember this scene as it had been like this for a long time, and if nothing else, it won't change for many years...... It's not a good word over the years, and it means it's a forgotten corner of the world.
Isn't that right, Emmysa? ”
Emisha nodded in confusion, she didn't know why Mo Fei suddenly said such a thing.
"Find a medium-sized island, that is, neither prosperous nor closed, with a sizable city on it, preferably with a naval base on the island...... If you go to live in that kind of place, at least life can be called life.
No matter how ordinary people are, they will have the pursuit and expectation of life, right? ”
"Brother Mofei, I don't quite understand what you're talking about."
It's no wonder that Emisha doesn't understand, because Mo Fei's words have no beginning or end.
Mo Fei smiled, then reached out and patted her head and said, "I'm suggesting that you leave this island and live somewhere else. ”
As he spoke, he pulled a paper bag out of his pocket and handed it to Emmitha.
"There's a little bit of money here, it's not much, but it should be enough for you to start a new life somewhere else...... If it's as 'start-up capital'. ”
When Emisha took the paper bag, she actually didn't care much, and when Mo Fei said the second half of the sentence, she had already opened the paper bag, and then she saw what was wrapped in the paper bag - 50 deposit receipts of 100,000 Bailey.
100,000X50, how much?
The little maid rarely comes into contact with money, let alone this kind of thing, so she reacted to Mo Fei's words for a while before she understood what she was holding in her hand.
Then she almost spilled it all with a shake of her hand...... Who would have thought that the "huge money" of five million Bailey would be wrapped in such a broken newspaper.
Emisha felt her hands get a little hot, and then her brain and face a little hot...... She was at a loss.
Mo Fei recalled his "identity background", and then continued, "My parents are both from the far island, and when they came to settle down on this small island, they were quite excluded as outsiders, and for our two brothers, we didn't have any playmates since childhood, and now...... The only person I know well on this island is you, Emilya.
Before leaving, if there is anyone who is not at ease, it will be you......"
This is not true, in fact, the direct reason why Mo Fei wanted to leave this money to Emisha was that he slapped this little girl for no reason before, and she looked strange and pitiful at that time...... It's actually a kind of compensation.
Five million Bailey is definitely a big number for people living on this island, but considering that Mo Fei's money came easily, he was also very generous when he made a move.
Because I don't feel distressed at all.
If it's great, he'll go fishing again.
"Brother Mo Fei......"
When Emisha figured out what she was going through, her expression became a little struggling.
From a moral point of view, of course, she shouldn't have accepted such a large sum of money for no reason, but who in a normal person can refuse this kind of "windfall"? Although people are accustomed to demanding high moral standards from others, no one can expect this kind of little girl who grew up on a small island to be particularly "backbone" and "arrogant", and can understand what it means to "not be eaten by snorts".
Someone had shoved five million Baileys into her hands without any conditions, and of course she wanted to take it, because she understood what the money meant to her life.
Emisha even forgot to ask Mo Fei where the money came from, and there was only a tangle left in her head about whether to accept it or not, and the former will was extremely strong.
Mo Fei didn't let her continue to struggle, and he didn't want to get the money back, "I'm leaving this island soon, so I hope this money can bring you some help." ”
This person is actually quite caring, he exchanged five million for 100,000 pieces of "change", so that it is more convenient for Emisha to use it separately, so as not to cause her any trouble.
"Leave? Brother Mo, where are you going? ”
Emisha finally came back to her senses when she heard Mo Fei say this.
"Where to go? I should say that I went to sea. ”
As he spoke, Mo Fei took out a newspaper from his pocket, unfolded it, revealed what was written on it, and handed it to Emisha.
Emisha took a look and said, "The bizarre destruction of the pirate ship? There was a pirate ship that suddenly wrecked at sea, and it was so broken that it was like it had been smashed with a hammer......
Brother Mo Fei, the place mentioned on the news doesn't seem to be particularly far from us......"
"And this kind of broken news?"
This Mo Fei really hasn't seen it, "It must be fake news concocted by someone, what I want you to see is the 'advertisement' in the back - there is a naval base recruiting mariners, I want to try my luck." ”
"Brother Mo Fei, are you going to be a naval soldier?"
"Well, it's been decided."
Mo Fei didn't plan to stay on this island for long, because it didn't make much sense.
"When do you say 'leave soon'?"
"It's just soon, probably tomorrow?"
After stuffing the money into Emisha's hand, Mo Fei can leave this worry-free island.
Emisha held the newspaper with her fingertips and pressed gently, she bit her lip, lowered her head and moved to Mo Fei's side with small steps, reached out and pulled his sleeve, made him lower his head, and leaned into his ear and whispered something.
"Well, you can accept it with peace of mind, this is not a matter of asking for returns...... Emmitha, don't overthink it. ”
Mo Fei couldn't laugh or cry a little.
He patted Emisha on the head again, then turned to leave.
"Remember to see you off tomorrow."
