Chapter 42: The Shop Upgrades 2

It's the edge of the city. There is a collapsed house, which is said to have been swept away by floodwaters many years ago. Now it's in ruins. When the poplar siblings arrived, they were immediately overwhelmed by countless people called Huaziwei.

Poplar was very sad, and a little glad that Mama hadn't been to this place when she took her.

"Sister, there was no place before. I heard that this year, the imperial court specially prepared a new place for the Hanako for the tribute of Fanbang. These are all screened out and called Hanako. Those who can get information, when the people from Fanbang come, the court will also find them a better place than here. ”

"So that's the case, the beggar can still be divided into three, six, nine and so on. This Great Yan Kingdom is really wonderful. Poplar said in his mouth, very puzzled in his heart, the predecessor of Poplar, why didn't he leave any memory about this aspect? Fortunately, I left a foreshadowing before, otherwise the two children would not necessarily ask something again.

"Sister, I've heard them say before that there are very few people who will be entrusted by the family to some poor families to take care of them. It's not starving, but there is a place to live. The two children still remember the memory loss of Poplar. Explained to Poplar on the side.

The three sisters and brothers were talking here, and dozens of Hanako were around them. They were all trembling and looking forward to seeing these three noblely dressed sons. The bold have already begun to beg.

"Childe, we haven't eaten for two days, and the imperial court has not allowed us to go into the city to beg. Have you been entrusted to find the children that your nobles have abandoned here? An old beggar about the same age as Dasha asked.

"yes, we're going to find girls, around 15 years old. So the men and the girls over that age stood over there. Stand on this side if you meet this condition. I also want to pick a few girls for our master. You can rest assured, whether we can find it or not. I'm going to send you a snack today. But now stand on both sides according to the rules, otherwise Ben Gongzi's snacks will not be given to you if they are fed to the dogs. Poplar said a little fiercely. Because he found that these dozens of people were almost hungry and red-eyed, and if they didn't come a little ruthlessly, they were afraid that they would be able to eat the three sisters and brothers.

The power of dim sum is enormous, and most of the dozens of people are on the side that does not meet the requirements. There were only a dozen girls scattered on this side. All of them were ragged and skinny. Seeing these dozen girls, Poplar had the heart to take them all away. But there is still a need to test the character.

"The second brother and the third brother went and brought the snack basket on that side." Bai Yang said to the two children that they had already prepared food when they came out. But I didn't expect that there are so many flowers in this place, but fortunately, there is room for replication in the poplars, so I don't have to worry about the lack of dim sum.

Xu was frightened by Poplar's cruel words, and the beggars came to receive snacks in an orderly manner.

Before the snacks were finished, they had finished eating and walked down the path to the ravine deep in the ruins.

Poplar asked suspiciously, what are you all going to do over there? Isn't there a broken house here?

"Benefactor, inside is the barrel house prepared for us by the imperial court. It's been decades since then, and more than half of it has collapsed. Luckily, we renovated it 5 years ago. We have strengthened a little more these days, hoping to survive this New Year, and when the tribute of the vassal is gone, the court will allow us to go out of the ravine. ”

"Oh, I see. Will the people of the court go to the ravine to bring you food? Poplar asked casually.

"Benefactor, how can the court be so kind? And will come to bring us food. We are all screened out, beggars without any background. Even if they all starve to death in the ravine, no one will care. The beggar at the back of the line added.

"Big brother, they're all so pitiful. Can we take a few more people? Xiaoqiang thought of the days when he used to beg and said to Poplar.

"Yes, big brother. In a few days, it will be winter. There will be many people who will freeze to death and starve to death. Xiao Rou also helped Xiao Qiang and said.

"Second brother and third brother, can we be the master of the master? Let's go over there and see if there is a girl the owner is looking for. Then pick a few more girls. ”

"Eldest son, isn't there a shortage of family members in your master's family? We brothers are a bit of a kid. Suddenly, two sloppy middle-aged uncles came to the front and said. Poplar was happy when he heard it, this is from the dark to the light. It turns out that these two people are Uncle Beard, they have changed their outfits, and they are not full of beards now, but how can these be hidden from the eyes of Poplar. So Poplar said with a thrust.

"Our lord's family has this meaning, and when we came, we were worried that our brother would not know anyone. Since you two say that you have a little ability, why don't you go back to the Lord's house with us? ”

"Don't worry, eldest son, we won't trouble you. Even if your lord's family doesn't take a fancy to us, we are grateful for the eldest prince's recommendation. ”

"That's the best, it's the first time the lord has sent us out on an errand. It doesn't matter if we don't do it well, if we mess up, how will we mess around in the mansion? After saying that, Poplar took the two children to the middle of the dozen girls. They also stood timidly in a row. The hardships of life made them look like they were no more than eleven or twelve years old. Topol's heart was sad, almost as big as them before he crossed over.

"Eldest son, I'm exactly 15 years old this year, I don't know if it's the person you're looking for. Anyway, I myself have forgotten 3 former homes, former fathers and mothers. ”

"Benefactor, none of us remember the past. Before they were driven here, there were people who came looking for girls. The ones they picked are all beautiful. Even if we used to have a family, my father and mother came to find it. They won't admit us going back because it's a five-year election. Whether she is close or not, it only depends on whether she can bring benefits to the family. The girl in second place continued.

The girl in third place was obviously a timid person, but she looked at Poplar pitifully. The girls in the back didn't even dare to speak, but just lowered their heads to see their toes. The girls at the back looked younger, seven or eight years old. Maybe he knows that he is too young, and he is neither the daughter that people are looking for, nor can he go to a big family to do anything. They all tugged at their tattered clothes and looked at the ground and counted the ants.

Poplar counted them, and there were 12 girls in total. Poplar made a decision in his heart, leaving a few small ones to work in his yard, and the rest to find a place for them to make snacks.

"Those two uncles, help us do something first. Go hire two carriages, my son doesn't want to take these begging babies to swagger through the market. Don't worry, no matter if the main family doesn't need you to take care of the home, my son will not let you run errands in vain. Bai Yang said when he saw the two of them.

The eldest prince laughed, and there was nowhere to buy the silver for us. It's better to reward the two of us with a full meal. The two beards also accompanied Poplar to act.

"Benefactor, when does your lord's family still need people? When will you be able to come back to us? The snacks you gave us were delicious. If we could eat a snack every day, we would be able to survive this winter. A few beggars did not leave, and looked at the poplar sisters and brothers and said expectantly.

"Then you are all in the prime of life with hands and feet. Even if you hunt some game, you can fill your stomach without starving to death. You say that the people of the court never come to this mountain, so there must be many pheasants and hares in this mountain. Even hungry mountain rats can be caught and roasted and eaten. If this son comes back in a few days, if you really freeze to death and starve to death because of laziness, you deserve it. ”

"Benefactor is so right, we have survived these days by relying on those little animals. It's just that many people are already lazy, and some people only know how to go up and rob when they call prey, and after a long time, hard-working people have become lazy. ”

"Uncle, what's your name? My master's family has a big business, and it takes a lot of people to come to the capital for the first time. There is a truth in the world, I don't know if you understand it or not. That is the survival of the fittest, the survival of the fittest. When Ben Gongzi comes back next time, as long as you are still alive, Ben Gongzi will ask you for an errand to do. Poplar said in a sympathetic tone. The beggars nodded and turned and walked towards the ravine. Before leaving, the beggar turned back to Poplar and said.

"Benefactor, I have long forgotten my cheap name, I have been begging in the capital for more than 10 years. They all called me a second fool, and the words of the benefactor called me suddenly. No matter whether Childe can come or not, I will try my best to live. I also want to live a roll call. ”

"Second fool, this son will definitely come again, I hope you are still alive at that time."

As he spoke, the bearded brothers had already arrived with two carriages. Thinking about it with his legs, Poplar also knew that these two carriages were prepared by them a long time ago. I couldn't help but give a thumbs up to King Xiaoyao in my heart. At the same time, I also felt a little uneasy, and I was like a transparent person in front of the King of Freedom. This feeling was very unpleasant, and then I was relieved to think of my anti-sky space. As far as he is concerned, as long as he has the bearded brothers and Qian Duo and Qian Guang, he can know at least half of the movements on the side of the Easy King. As long as he doesn't pose a threat to himself, let him be.
