Herein lies the problem.

The recent recession has made the atmosphere in the church a little depressing, so it was noticed by Move.

He is a little more sensible than children of the same age, but after all, he is only a seven-year-old.

Maybe he just thought that as long as he could earn money, he could help them.

"Don't let me worry."

Lucky, who has a general understanding of the situation, can basically guess what Mov thinks.

Sighing, Lu Qi said, "Let's split up and look for it, a few children shouldn't be able to run far." ”

Barrett also said at this time: "I have sent someone to inform the escort team, and they will help find it." ”

"Hmm."

Lu Qi nodded, looked in one direction and said, "I'll look over there." ”

"Then I'll go over here."

Kahina chose a different direction and ran away in a hurry, and it was obvious that she was very concerned about the safety of the five children.

When we met just now, I noticed that this girl's forehead was covered with sweat.

"I'm going to help."

After Fiona finished speaking, she followed in Kahina's direction.

"Let's go."

Luci glanced at Lux and walked forward.

Lux also hurriedly followed.

She didn't know if she could find it, but she really didn't want anything to happen to the children.

In fact, for Luki, it is inevitable to find.

At this moment, in his eyes, a position in the royal capital, there was a red light rising into the sky.

"A few little kids, they're still running a long way."

With a helpless sigh in his heart, Lu Qi quickened his pace.

As early as the time he got the note under's pillow, he submitted it to the Divine Tracking Order.

The requirement for the use of the Divine Tracking Order is that the target needs to be a personal item, and Move's note naturally counts.

The duration of the Divine Trace Order is five hours, during which time it will follow the target.

So Lu Qi went straight to where the red light was.

Confused, Lux ran after Luki.

She wasn't sure if she was looking for someone.

Will this really be able to find the and them?

After some time.

Lux was a little confused, she looked at the children in front of her, and then looked at Lucky.

Really found it?

Why?

At this time, Miss Crown's small head had a big question.

"How did you know they were here?"

Lux was so curious that she couldn't help but ask.

Lu Qi replied in a panacea, "Try your luck." ”

Of course, this answer could not convince Lux.

But for a while, she couldn't think of any other explanation.

Unable to resist staring at the side of Lucie's face for a few moments, Lux resisted the urge to ask.

And Luki, at this time, was looking at Mov and a few of them.

Mofu got the bamboo basket from nowhere, carried it behind his back, put a lot of things in it, and held a little girl in his hand, walking step by step.

Behind him, there were three boys who were a little taller than him, and each of them carried a bamboo basket behind him.

This scene made many passers-by look sideways a few more times.

ignored these gazes and continued walking.

"Moff, I feel like these can sell for a lot of money."

"See how many I picked up?"

"Let's go sell it for money,!"

"?"

Several children are still talking happily with the excitement of running away from home at the moment.

They suddenly noticed that was no longer talking, and they couldn't help but feel a little strange.

And in's sight, Luqi and the stupid sister were standing not far away, watching them.

At this time, the children also saw Lu Qi and the two and began to feel scared.

After thinking about it, stepped forward, tilted his head, didn't dare to look at Lu Qi, wiped his nose and said, "Why are you here?" ”

Lu Qi smiled: "Didn't we make an appointment to meet today." ”

also remembered this agreement, but he still didn't look up, and continued: "Are you here to ask us to go back?" ”

"Of course, everyone is worried," said Ludge. ”

Moff hesitated, and he naturally listened to Luqi's words.

However, at this moment, he was heartbroken, and replied: "I will not go back!" ”

Lucci asked, "Why?" ”

raised his head this time, looked at Lu Qi with tenacious eyes and said, "Because we now have the ability to support ourselves!" ”

Behind him, the children also nodded their heads again and again, holding their heads high.

Even the little girl he was holding in his hand showed strong eyes.

"Really?"

Lu Qi was a little interested: "I heard that you came out to make money, how much have you earned so far?" ”

"A lot!"

Hearing this, proudly put his hand into the pocket in his arms, and then took out all the money in it and gave it to Luki.

Luqi took it and looked into his hand.

It is a shriveled copper coin, which looks unfair and even dirty, but there are quite a lot of them, and there should be more than thirty of them.

It's just that copper coins are already a lot in their eyes.

"This is just the beginning, we can earn more."

At this time, Mov was full of confidence, and his innocent eyes were full of yearning for the future.

Seeing this, Lu Qi put away his smile and asked again, "Are you sure you won't go back?" ”

Seeing that there was no smile on Lu Qi's face, Moff felt a little scared, but after a second, he still mustered up the courage to say, "No! ”

"Okay."

Luffy returned the money that Mov earned, "Then don't go back, you just don't come here and continue to do what you have to do, let me see what you can do." ”

was stunned for a moment, a little surprised.

He also thought that Lu Qi would give him an unreasonable lecture and forcibly take them back.

Because it's like Lucky's style.

After the accident, he became happy again, and Mofu nodded seriously and excitedly: "You see, I will definitely prove it to you!" ”

What he wanted most was the approval of Lu Qi, a man with a high status in his eyes, and the only man who didn't treat him as a child.

If even he can approve of it, then it proves that he must be okay now, right?

Four o'clock in the afternoon.

With his four friends, Moff continued to confidently embark on the journey.

And Lucci kept a distance, followed behind, and watched silently.

Those children, from the initial worry, to the back of the rest of the rest of the bold.

Mov's source of income is to pick up some abandoned scrap metal and cardboard boxes and some things that they think should be valuable.

Maybe it's been specifically studied, because there are indeed some people who collect these, after all, waste can also be reused.

The performance sells for more than ten or twenty copper plates at a time, and it doubles when you are lucky.

One gold in Demacia is equal to ten silver, and one silver is equal to one hundred bronze.

Silver and copper coins are the mainstream currency of Demacia, and spending money directly with gold coins like Luqi is no longer a level that ordinary families can reach.

But this is normal, after all, his starting point is so high.

The place where it is consumed is also a high-end place.

In the previous archery game, when he saw Lucci and Lux shooting each other, the boss's mouth smiled crookedly.

Why?

Because one arrow is equal to three silver coins, these three silver coins are already a lot.

Five o'clock in the afternoon.

Move: They have been back and forth four times in the place where scrap is exchanged for money.

These four times were probably sold for more than two silver.

This made several children smile all over their faces.

Although was not the oldest of them, he was indeed the most bossy, and the children listened to him first.

In the meantime, the convoy arrived.

They saw a few children at first sight, and when they were about to step forward, they saw His Royal Highness the prince again.

His Royal Highness ordered them to withdraw, and to go back and inform the others, and he was here to watch.

So the convoy took the order and left.

Six o'clock in the afternoon.

It was getting dark, but it wasn't time for the sun to set.

After several hours of running around, Mov and the other children finally showed fatigue on their faces, but even if they felt tired, they were still happy.

Because you can earn money, and it is through your own hard work.

But soon, the first lesson of this society came.

They are not the only ones who collect waste, but there are also adults who, when they trespass into their territory, are driven away in anger, and some may even actually do it.

Those people didn't relent because they were children.

The children were frightened, and after running away, Moff comforted them for a while.

This small incident did not discourage them, but soon, the second thing hit their self-confidence.

When a few children finally collected a new wave of waste products, they came to the waste collection stall with joy.

Coincidentally, there were also two adults who came with bamboo baskets on their backs.

"It's yours, a piece of silver, and it's done."

The waste collector first disposed of the adults' batch.

Then he checked Mofu again, weighed them, took out a handful of copper coins, and counted them, "This is yours, forty copper." ”

looked puzzled, he looked at it carefully, and said puzzledly: "Why are we so little?" We don't collect as much as they do. ”

This time, he noticed that the two adults had collected no more scrap than theirs, but they had sold for a piece of silver.

And they only have forty coppers.

Faced with this problem, the stall owner didn't even want to explain, and said impatiently: "That's all, love or not." ”

Moff was stunned for a moment, looked up at the expression on the stall owner's face, and knew for the first time the sinister nature of this society.

He wanted to say that he wouldn't sell it to you.

But thinking of the few people behind him, he forced a smile and said, "That's all." ”

The stall owner handed over the copper coin this time.

The Mofu turned away with the empty bamboo basket on their backs.

On the way, several children were demoralized.

"In other words, have we been bargained for the few times we sold before?"

"Why do those people collect more than us?"

", why don't you sell it to him?"

A few people walked listlessly on the road.

This incident has dealt a considerable blow to their confidence.

I have worked hard for so long, and as a result, I don't earn half as much as adults.

"Because he thinks we're bullies."

"The more he looks down on us, the more we have to prove it to him!" ”

Several of the children were boosted by these words and reinvigorated a little.

They didn't leave the church with a casual attitude.

Seven o'clock in the evening.

In summer, it gets dark late, but it's also sunset.

When the children returned after collecting another wave of scrap, they found that the stall owner was gone.

Calling it a day? Or go somewhere else.

They don't know.

But after looking around, no one else was willing to take it.

So they can only carry the heavy but reluctant to throw away the waste, step by step on the street, their faces are a little confused.

At this time, the house leak happened to rain overnight.

As a drop of rain fell, soon the sky began to rain heavily, it was a sun rain, the sky was still bright, but the rain did not stop.

There was a lot of noise, and people were scrambling to hide from the rain.

They were also doused by the sudden heavy rain, and hurriedly hid under an exposed eaves to avoid the rain, standing there, looking outside, in addition to confusion or confusion in their eyes.

The planned income was cut off and wet.

Fortunately, it was summer and I didn't feel cold.

At this point, my stomach was hungry again.

The sun and rain came and went as fast as it came, and when the rain stopped, Mov decided to go and fill his stomach first.

Only in this way can we have the strength to work.

Smelling the scent, they found a restaurant down the street, but the price made them look twice and run away.

Even the most ordinary bowl of broth, with a loaf of bread, costs a silver coin.

I finally found a cheap restaurant, a bowl of vegetable soup and a bread, and twenty copper for one person.

The five men spent a silver coin, and after doing the math, they had a little more than three silver coins left.

Five people, at the end of the day, earned four silver coins, for them, it seems to be very good.

Eight o'clock in the evening.

It was already dark, and the Mov group was walking down the street.

The girl, named Moses, was actually a little sleepy after eating.

The eyelids kept fighting, but they still fought with all their strength.

It was only then that noticed him, and he asked, "Moses, are you sleepy?" ”

Moses shook his head: "Not sleepy." ”

"What about you?"

Moff turned to the other three partners.

"Not sleepy!"

"We still have the strength!"

"Where are you going now?"

The three partners had tired faces on their faces, but they responded anyway.

Mov thought about it and decided to find a place to live and rest today.

The hostel is easy to find.

Soon they walked into a house.

The boss asked kindly, "How many of you are there?" ”

"Five."

Moff, who took the lead, replied.

The boss counted to five, and asked, "What about your lords?" ”

However, after Mov answered.

The boss's face suddenly changed.

"Let you adults come and rent a room, this store does not rent to children."

A few children walked out of the store with puzzled faces.

Obviously they have money, why not rent it to them?

"Let's look elsewhere."

Moff decided.

But after some inquiry, either they will not rent it to them, or the price is too expensive.

In fact, even those ordinary hotels, just a single room, cost two silver coins a night.

Moff thought that if they were to sell their wretchedness, perhaps some adults would be soft-hearted and willing to take them in for the night.

However, when the idea came to him, he thought of Lucky.

He remembered that he wanted to prove to Luqi that they could earn their own money, live on their own, and become adults.

Sell pitiful, maybe you can get through tonight, but what about later?
