"Look at these people. Pointing to the poor people, Sam said, "Do you think that their misfortune is caused by war?"

Paul sighed and reminded Sam to hurry up and get down to business.

"Poor people, more than half of the beggars and vagabonds will be diseased, or killed by each other. Sam said, "They were like this during the war, and they were like it after the war." ā€

The homeless man on the side of the road was holding a broken bowl, which looked like a pewter mug, but with a large circle. The dirt had given his bowl a new coat of paint, and the original metallic-colored parts at first glance thought they were badly worn. He was about to go to the church two blocks away to receive relief rations, far enough to fit his large bowl, and the rice grains in the porridge could be counted by hand.

After the priest recited a few pre-dinner prayers, a large pot of porridge was quickly divided. Before the blessed priest had even finished the stairs of the church door, the homeless men who had come late left in discouragement. They can only hope that they can find the bad turnips and long-haired leftovers in the trash can tonight to make dinner. Everywhere you can find leaves or grass you can eat, and it is said that when Southteken was besieged, people would scramble for a piece of bark to satisfy their hunger.

Sam and Paul walked past these people.

"Any apostasy is simply contempt for the law. Sam said, "The majesty of the law needs to be re-established from the time someone begins to obey it." Judge Johnny would be tried and convicted, and until then he would be locked up in a dungeon in the northwest corner of Buckingburg. ā€

"I won't let you down. Paul listened and quickened his pace.

Sam smiled as Paul walked away, and a homeless man walked in the direction of the church, followed by two small children.

They dodged Sam's gaze, trying to walk past him unnoticed. Sam wanted to say something, and only when the homeless man had already walked behind him did Sam say to him:

"I have a friend who likes to feed birds, and I guess he's going to be short of manpower, because Buckingburg is big. ā€

When the man heard this, he was pleasantly surprised: "I don't dare to blame my adult, but can I accommodate the villain's request." ā€

"What is it?" said Sam.

When the homeless man saw that this adult really intended to give him a job, he couldn't hide his joy, and his smile could be heard in his words, "I have two brothers, I beg you to provide us with a place to stay." ā€

"Oh, so there are three of them?" Sam said, "I can't give you free accommodation, but I can give you enough work." I think 5 silver coins per month is enough, 5 silver coins per person. ā€;
