Chapter 278: Invited, Orphan

Seeing Song Huijiao's eyes looking at him, Yi Xuan was suddenly shocked in his heart, that kind of look Yi Xuan had only felt from the two sisters Zheng Xiuyan in the past.

This tsundere girl can't really take a fancy to me, right? Yi Xuan recalled the conversation between the two just now before he felt a little unusual.

Lao Zhao Tou still wanted to shirk it, but he couldn't find any good reason for a while, after all, Yi Xuan said it too suddenly this time, so he didn't have any preparation.

Yi Xuan, who was surprised that Song Huijiao's eyes were wrong just now, found that Lao Zhao Tou was still hesitating there, so he immediately patted Lao Zhao Tou's shoulder while the iron was hot and said, "Don't hesitate, it's such a happy decision!" ”

After speaking, he gave Lao Zhao Tou a few looks, as if to say that everything has me, but Lao Zhao Tou didn't know his ability, so he took a sip of wine a little angrily.

"Great! I went back to my father and told him that he would be very happy to hear the news! Song Huijiao was afraid that something would happen again, so after taking a deep look at Yi Xuan, she got up and said, "When the time comes, Mr. Zhao must come, and Mr. Yi will also come!" ”

Looking at Song Huijiao, who had put on the electricity for a while before leaving, Yi Xuan touched his nose, a little embarrassed, and when the old Zhao Tou who had already figured it out next to him saw Yi Xuan's embarrassment: "Okay, make sure that you sell it for a big beauty, boy, you are doing a good job in this business!" ”

"Come on, Lao Zhao, I have a wife at home, but this girl is too enthusiastic and a little uncomfortable!" Yi Xuan hurriedly explained.

Although Lao Zhao Tou studied like a madman, he still experienced a lot of life over the years, although he had been single, it did not hinder his vision, and when he saw Yi Xuan hurriedly explaining, he didn't have much to say.

Although the two of them hit it off at first sight, after all, they had only known each other for less than a day, and some things were not suitable for talking about each other, so the two of them stopped talking about it.

It's still early, Lao Zhao Tou also woke up, looking at a large table of new wine and food, Lao Zhao Tou, who had been drinking just now, was a little hungry, so he simply continued to eat and drink.

"You kid is sure to go into the pit this time, I'm going to go to that celebration party, I don't know if I can come out or not!" Old Zhao said with some frustration.

"Lao Zhao, don't worry, after you take me to the drinking party, as long as you follow me, I will guarantee that no one will be able to embarrass you!" Yi Xuan patted his chest and said.

As for whether Yi Xuan has the ability to ensure that he is not embarrassed, Lao Zhao Tou doesn't know, but he knows that the drinking party of the four major families is not for ordinary people at all, and then there is only one step at a time.

Seeing that Lao Zhao Tou was still eating with his head buried after hearing his words, he was noncommittal, Yi Xuan knew that he didn't believe that he had that ability.

Yi Xuan didn't intend to continue to explain, obviously Lao Zhao didn't know about his own news before the disaster, so as an ordinary person, it was understandable that he couldn't imagine the forces behind Yi Xuan.

Another point, in fact, there is a reason why Yi Xuan took the initiative to help Lao Zhao Tou agree to this matter this time.

I heard Song Huijiao say that this reception was held to celebrate the city lord, that is, the military commander, who was elected as a member of the Huguang Base Group Council.

Yi Xuan had heard the news in the bar at the beginning, and knew that the heads and brains of various forces would go, which could be said to be a rare upper-level drinking party in this base city.

In such a reception, you must be able to learn a lot about the relationship between the various forces in this base city, so it is very important for Yi Xuan, who wants to develop underground forces in this base city.

He had just come to this base city, and he had no qualifications and opportunities to participate in this kind of drinking party, and it was rare to encounter the strange factor of Lao Zhaotou, of course Yi Xuan had to grasp it.

As for what Lao Zhao Tou was worried about, in Yi Xuan's opinion, it was not a matter at all.

After Lao Zhaotou finished eating, Yi Xuan agreed with him to meet at the reception tomorrow, and said goodbye to each other at the door of the hotel.

Back at the Hunter's Hotel, there were not many people in the hall, only the bar was still full of people, Yi Xuan and the four wolf warriors stopped running around this time, and Shi Shiran walked upstairs to the hotel.

After instructing the four wolf warriors to rest, Yi Xuan returned to his room.

Closed the door, casually looked at the rooms that were no worse than those 5-star hotels before the troubled times, and after scanning the room with mental power to see if there was any monitoring equipment, he did not return to the cave, and chatted with Yu'er, Qian Dongxu and Lone Wolf through the video communication on the bracelet.

After learning about the situation in Ark City in the past few days, several things have been arranged, the most important of which is the preparation of the secret service organization.

After seeing the situation in the base city, Yi Xuan found that the situation here was chaotic because of the entanglement of various forces, but it was really a good time to infiltrate the agents at this time, otherwise he would encounter a lot of obstacles when the forces in the base city were truly integrated in the future.

For example, Yi Xuan came this time, although he was born, but as a very famous scientist before the troubled times, he actually did not attract the attention of those forces, and his spiritual power has always covered the surroundings, and he has never found that anyone is specifically following him.

This is also the reason why Yi Xuan dared to let Lao Zhao Tou take him to that drinking party.

Although it is possible to be noticed by the forces in this city, it will also allow you to quickly integrate into this base city, so that you can quickly understand the various situations in this base city.

After all, talents like Lao Zhao Tou, who were not valued in the past in peacetime, can be noticed by those who are well-known and capable, so those who are already very famous and capable must have entered various forces, and the target of their trip is them.

After ending the contact with the rear, sitting there cross-legged and thinking about his future behavior, Yi Xuan stood up, walked around the house and lay down to rest.

The next day, after Yi Xuan had breakfast casually with the four wolf warriors in the morning, he continued to walk around the city slowly.

This time, Yi Xuan didn't bring four wolf warriors, but let them go deep into the civilian crowd in the base in pairs to collect more information.

Yi Xuan spent the morning and afternoon wandering around the streets and alleys, and even his lunch was dealt with with the dry cakes he bought at a small stall.

It can be said that I have seen the luxury in this base city, and I have also seen the poverty in this base city.

The meal he ate last night was as good as the peacetime, but at this time, eating the dry and unpalatable baked cakes from the street vendors, Yi Xuan suddenly felt that he and the others were really a waste last night.

At this time, there were several yellow-faced and thin-skinned children carefully surrounding him, looking at the baked cakes in his hands greedily.

Looking at their pitiful appearance, I thought about it and was afraid that I would hit them, so I could only watch it from a distance, which made the feeling that I already felt difficult to swallow even more obvious for a while.

The vendor who sold the baked cakes was afraid that these children named Hanako would affect their business, and wanted to scare them with wooden sticks, but they were finally persuaded by Yi Xuan.

He beckoned to the children.

But the children didn't dare to come over at first, but looked at Yi Xuan and the boss of the baked cakes hesitantly, but in the end, they couldn't resist the temptation of the baked cakes, and walked over cautiously.

Looking at their yellow-skinned little faces, Yi Xuan really wanted to take them back to the City of the Ark, where these poor children had no one to take care of, and even if they didn't starve to death, they would embark on a life with little future.

took out some silver and bought a baked cake for each of these children, which immediately made them cry bitterly and thanked Yi Xuan.

"Alright, alright, stop crying, let's eat quickly!" Yi Xuan hurriedly said, in fact, some children couldn't wait to eat it.

Taking advantage of the gap between these children eating baked cakes, Yi Xuan also asked them if they had parents or something, and the answer he got made Yi Xuan sigh for a while, these children were really orphans as he thought.

The outbreak of this catastrophe can be said to have completely destroyed the original civilized world, although science and technology have been retained, but the social state has entered an era similar to that of feudal society.

Although many people are still highly educated, in a world where survival is not guaranteed and food is scarce, they can only be resigned to being exploited by those who are in charge.

But those poor orphans have no one to take care of, and can only leave them to fend for themselves in the base, and if this continues, these poor children who did not lose their lives in the disaster will eventually disappear into these seemingly safe base cities.

Although in order not to leak his purpose, Yi Xuan couldn't take those poor people away on a large scale, after all, the current Ark City couldn't bear too many people.

But orphans like this kind of orphans that no one pays attention to are really a good choice, they are children in the first place, and they don't take up much resources, but their future plasticity is really too strong.

In the past, there were many orphans among the people Yi Xuan rescued in those ruins, but because they lived in the City of the Ark, they could live a fairly good life and could receive advanced modern education, so they didn't pay much attention to this problem.

It seems that in the process of collecting talents in various base cities in the future, these orphans that no one pays attention to will also be listed as the key collection objects.

Thinking of it, after Yi Xuan asked about these orphans, he took out a piece of gold and handed it to the eldest child among these children, and asked him to gather all the orphans like them in this base city, and go to Lao Zhaotou's house to wait for him, and these gold are for them to eat.
