Chapter 27: Friendship
"I see......"
Walking on the road, looking at Chen Heng beside him, Kuludo was a little surprised: "You are also the one who came to join Kutu Academy." ”
"Yes. ”
Chen Heng smiled on his face and nodded lightly: "I didn't expect it, you too." ”
After a while, under Chen Heng's deliberate friendship, the two have already known each other.
In a short period of time, under Chen Heng's deliberate words, the young man also explained his origins clearly.
His name is Kuludo, a descendant of the Lord of the North, and like Chen Heng, he is also the heir of a baron, and this time he came to participate in the gathering of Kutu Academy.
However, compared with Chen Heng, he was obviously more miserable, so that after coming here, there was not even a familiar person.
"Didn't your father arrange a guide for you?"
Chen Heng asked with some curiosity.
Kuludo shook his head a little bitterly, and then opened his mouth to explain to Chen Heng.
It turned out that although the Kurudo family was noble, it was located to the north, bordering a desert area.
Unlike Baron Kayson's domain, the desert region not only has a harsh climate, but also a variety of terrible alien races.
Not only was the place poor, but it had very little production, and because of the terrain and the dangers, there were very few merchants.
This also led to an outcome.
The lords there were very poor.
The same goes for the Kurudo family.
According to Kurudo, he was able to come to Kutu because a caravan happened to pass by and sent him along the way.
Otherwise, he doesn't know when he'll be here.
Hearing this, even Chen Heng couldn't help but be speechless for a while.
To this extent, it is really speechless to be a lord.
But it also seems to be true.
Previously, he had heard of the poverty in the north of the country of Kutu.
I thought that those were all exaggerations, but now it seems that I am afraid that they are really excessive.
"Speaking of which, is the South so rich?"
Then, Kurudo spoke with some envy.
He was very envious of Chen Heng's previous attitude of not taking money in his eyes.
On the other side of their territory, a large silver coin is a lot of money.
"Not really. ”
Chen Heng smiled, and then shook his head: "My father's lord situation is indeed better than yours, but it is not too good. ”
"In fact, when I came out, I only had three silver coins on me. ”
His face did not change, and he spoke calmly.
"Then you still ......"
Kurudo was stunned for a moment, a little surprised.
"Because people always want more. ”
Looking at Kuludo, Chen Heng smiled, and then pointed at himself: "To tell the truth, a big silver coin is a lot of money, and I may not be able to make so much money in a year." ”
"But I don't want to see anyone else suffer because of it more than the joy of this unexpected wealth. ”
He smiled and said, "Even to me, a large silver coin is a lot of money..... And what about the others?"
"Think about it, maybe it's someone else's family's property, maybe someone else is hoping to use the money to change his life, or maybe someone is waiting for this money to save his life......"
"Losing this windfall is nothing to me, but to everyone else, it's devastating......"
Chen Heng sighed and said softly: "I don't want this, if this is really the case, my joy cannot make up for my guilt, and it will make me live in uneasiness." ”
Kurudo was stunned again.
He originally thought that Chen Heng would be like this before, completely because he was rich enough, so he could not care about this money.
But now it seems that this is not the case at all.
This is a man who would rather let his own interests be harmed than make others cry.
As long as he didn't do anything, he could easily pocket this wealth, which was not a small amount of money for himself, but instead of doing so, he took the initiative to find the owner, unwilling to make others sad about the loss.
What an upright, kind-hearted person such a person?
Looking at Chen Heng, Kuludo was suddenly in awe, and he almost didn't know what he should say at this moment.
"You, you're such a great person. ”
He looked at Chen Heng and was silent for a long time before he spoke.
"Great? no, no. ”
Chen Heng smiled, his smile was still very gentle, pleasing to the eye: "In fact, if my father knew about today's incident, he would definitely take a sword and angrily denounce me as a fool." ”
The same must have been true for everyone else. ”
He shook his head and said with a smile.
Kurudo also smiled and said seriously: "Perhaps in the eyes of most people, this kind of behavior is not witty, but I always feel that such behavior as yours is noble. ”
"A good person should be respected. ”
He looked at Chen Heng and said solemnly.
Standing there, looking at Kuludo's expression, Chen Heng didn't speak, just smiled.
It was true that he had only brought three silver coins with him when he came to Kutu this time, but what he did not tell Kurudo was that Baron Casen would give him ten silver coins later, and every year after that.
He didn't tell the other party that there was no so-called owner, and everything was made up by him.
Of course, these things will never be known to the other party.
"Thank you. ”
All kinds of thoughts flashed in his heart, and on the surface, Chen Heng smiled, and smiled very happily: "Anyway, we can be regarded as acquaintances." ”
"You're the first friend I've ever made in Kutu. ”
He smiled and spoke, then held out his hand.
Kurudo was stunned for a moment, then smiled as well, stretched out his hand towards Chen Heng, and shook it fiercely.
Silently, a wave of friendship seemed to be established.
Subsequently, Chen Heng and Kuludo chatted a lot, and the two talked here, and they had the feeling of seeing each other late for a while.
It wasn't until a long time later, when it was getting dark, that Kurudo turned and left the place.
In place, looking at Kuludo's gradually disappearing back, Chen Heng stood there, thoughtful.
"A nice seedling. ”
He smiled, looking very happy.
Although they had only known each other for a day, Chen Heng had already obtained a lot of information.
Kurudo is not very old, and as the child of a baron, although he looks a little dirty at the moment, his potential is undoubted.
At the very least, if he can come here to study, it means that he will most likely inherit his father's title in the future.
Although the nobles of the Northland are generally poor, they still have many advantages in some conveniences.
And personally, Kurudo also has many highlights.
Recalling the touch of the calluses on the other party's hands just now, Chen Heng couldn't help but smile, and affirmed the guess in his heart.
