Chapter 35: What Do You Ask Me to Hack You... Only...
The meeting ended unhappily, but the tone was set. Whether or not these refugees are managed, they will rush to Kanafon and come down. If they are really killed, it is estimated that no one will do business with Kana Lockdown. This is different from war, and there is still a bit of courtesy and shame in these years...... But I can't afford to manage this group of refugees, and I can't absorb so much at once. In the end, the result of the discussion was that each family allocated a little wasteland to the refugees, and if it was not enough to distribute the wasteland, they would give some food, and if it was not enough, Alice Fell could only wave his hand and forcibly divide a vacant land (Cybertron later learned that the conspiracy was big). Anyway, I'm sure the last group of people won't survive, and it's only more than 2,000. It's not just my Kana Feng family, this time the refugees are not tens of thousands or even tens of thousands, anyway, they will definitely not be able to survive this winter, so it can be regarded as reducing the burden on the population. Anyway, there are so many people who are going to die these days, and there is no shortage of people if they lack anything.
And then what?
Alice Phil decides to open the inner hall and use her own private money to solve the problem. In this way, it will not be said that it is this and that by people within the family, at least it will not be said so strictly.
"Well, I'd like to see how you end up with Mrs. Alice Field!" Clermont Mitchlin waved his hand, and he had the dark posture of a fat gang leader: "I don't believe you can raise so many people!"
This one...... That's it.
- Humanitarian ...... Heheββ
Alice Phil sighed and didn't go home immediately, but there was an emergency meeting within the next family to ask for the people she had named. If you haven't been named, how far away is for her to roll, otherwise the family rules will serve (original words).
Cybertron learned that Mrs. Alice Fell still had such a dark belly and a stern side. It's not just violence against her daughter as a last resort, it turns out that more often than not, her guards aren't vegetarians.
...... Also, in this cannibalistic society, no matter how kind you are in your heart. It's impossible to solve problems by being kind, isn't it? Especially with such a big family, it's impossible to solve problems without a little skill.
However, her first stop was not to return to her home for an internal closed-door consultation, but ......
Head straight to the Chapel of the Light.
β...... Madam, I personally don't think it's much use to pray to God at such times. "Cybertron is honest, I'm really afraid that Alice Phil is also a fanatic, and he didn't dare to say it after thinking about it for a long time. The atmosphere in the car was solemn, no one spoke, and Alice Phil was quietly thinking about things. There are only two people, him and Alice Field, and a maid who has been waiting - Glous. Eighty percent of Ge Luqian's greatest use is to carry a bag and pass a message at any time, helping women when it is inconvenient.
Yes, it is useless to pray to God at such times, and the Light will not help us solve our problems. Alice Phil patted her head, then looked up at the roof of the carport, "Don't worry, I already knew that the Holy Light was useless. Countless times I have looked up at the sky, and the lights I have seen are not holy, they are ordinary, and they have never blessed me in my most difficult times - I went to the Chapel of the Light this time, just to ask the church to help. At the very least, give me a green light. β
β...... Oh?" "This time it was Cybertron's turn to be surprised, there are really not many people who don't believe in God these days, at least they should believe a little bit, right?
"On the contrary, compared to those empty words full of "believe in the Holy Light and gain eternal life", compared to the unpredicated love of "Light for the World", I think that your natural shamanism makes me feel more reliable. At the very least, you've said a lot of universal values that make me believe in them. Alice Field's fierce predictions jumped out one after another: "Didn't do it! You're right! Natural movement is strong and strong, and great people should also be like nature, the earth, and the sky, striving for self-improvement, perseverance, hard work, and never stop!"
β...... Can you summarize the relatively positive things from what I said......" Cybertron was relieved: "I'm relieved, I'm not saying it in vain. β
"You think you're talking in vain?βHey, hey, women like to listen to stories, but they prefer to get into them. Alice Fell snorted dissatisfied: "All right, go to the Chapel of the LightβI'm a devout believer there." β
β...... Speaking of piety. Cybertron's heart was entangled for a moment: "That...... The name is very strange, and the crazy lady surnamed Storm ......"
"Crazy Faith Lady?--aha, don't say it, it's true. Alice Phil laughed, and then said sternly, "Maybe my fate is not good, so the Holy Light is not sympathetic to me, which is normal." But in the same way, this Lady Tempest Patriarch is no ordinary person. β
β...... Oh?"
"If there's a reason in the world where I can respect the church, she's the only one. It has to be said that in many cases people represent religion, and Patriarch Miriai Stormstorm is one of them. She's not old-fashioned, nor is she extremely extreme...... Of course, when she demands herself, she is quite extreme. But on the other hand, she is more able to walk with the people, yes, the people. β
Immediately afterward, Alice Phil tells a lot of stories about Milly Love Storm.
"She was promoted to Patriarch at a young age because of her piety and skill in using the power of the Light. She is exactly twenty-five years old, and about five years ago I was promoted to the position of contemporary Patriarch by the previous Patriarch at the same time as I inherited the family business......"
"Twenty-five?" Cybertron was stunned, "Then she looks really young...... I thought it was smaller. β
"Those who have really mastered the magic of the Holy Light are young, and they love to listen or notβI ...... In fact...... Also...... Hmph, do you listen?"
"Uh...... Listen, listen...... what could Cybertron say, and could only laugh and say, "Ma'am, you are really very young - in my people's aesthetic conception, you are definitely in the prime of your youth. β
Glancing at Cybertron, the beautiful lady seemed to have a woman's self-confidence bursting in an instant, and immediately snorted demonstratively, straightened her mind and continued: "The first thing I did was to inspect a hospital in the city. There were very few beds in the hospital at the time, so she bluntly requested the use of her patriarch's room, the dining hall, and even her personal chapel. You see, being a patriarch is a status symbol - although the Light claims that everyone is a child of light, a status symbol is still needed. She said, "It's not normal for me to take up hundreds of people by myself" -- so she took her stuff out and now her property is still the largest hospital in town. She herself, on the other hand, lived in a relatively small room in the Chapel of the Light. β
"......" all say that the world is as black as a crow, why is this shining light?
"Also, the annual allowance of a regular clergyman, not counting the offerings of the parishioners, will have fifty trantas. As Patriarch, she had about fifteen hundred trantas, and her money was deposited in the bank run by our family, and I certainly knew some of the leaders. What surprised me was that she didn't buy anything for herself, and the 1,500 trantas, which seemed to ordinary people to be an astronomical income, but she subsidized all of them to the church, the cost of missions...... I've checked, she opened a small orphanage, improved the prison house so that at least no one leaks rain and freezes to death, persuaded prisoners, comforted death row prisoners, donated granaries, helped the poor, helped girls who need to be helped more from being abducted by human traffickers, etc., etc., and so on, for five years she lived like a saint every dayβ"
β...... it!" Cybertron was really shocked this time.
β...... You burst into a foul language, but I forgive you. Alice Phil also smiled bitterly: "I myself think it is strange to such a madman!βyou know, she was even attacked by the clergy of the city for abolishing the city's indulgence. With her great eloquence, she prayed to the Light and ...... Part of the compromise. Really repelled those clerics!--well, most of the Holy Light magic was really used to attack. And most of the donations, she was able to put them to good use -- how do I know? Eh, didn't I say that she deposited her money in our family's bank? The rich came, and the poor came. The latter came to ask for alms from the former, and the former came to need her healing or protection. All the money she passed through was clean, and every account was meticulous -- you know? I think she ...... If you can really do this, it is mentally extreme. β
You're the one who makes the profit after a long time...... However, this is really rare!
β...... Well, I now kind of know what you're going to do. Cybertron nodded and said, "You're not asking God, you're asking people." β
"Yes, I'm sure she'll do relief if she knows she doesn't need me, but I'm going to let her use all the money on me. Alice Phil bowed her head slightly and said, "It's better to use it on us than on others - I will make money become money, and let more money help those refugees." β
β...... In other words, I have seen the only remaining ...... in this world Two Holy Maidens, or the Virgin?" Cybertron tilted his head, the corners of his mouth twitching. In this dark otherworld, in the cold era, what is the matter with the two in front of him? I wonder if the Virgin has not been popular lately?
"Virgin? Alice Phil waved her hand, as if she couldn't afford it: "I'm just a businessman who is careful and makes money." Our Lady, yes...... Look, where is the one. β
With that, the carriage of the group had arrived at the Chapel of Light. In the winter, Cybertron saw a lean ...... riding a lean horse Old horse, the storm lady who is returning to the Chapel of Light!
