Chapter 78 You guys need to react! (Please subscribe)
Nine p.m.
Moff and the others had been walking for nearly a day, and within an hour they had not found a suitable hotel.
It was completely dark.
The streets of Demacia were as lively as ever at night, but this didn't seem to have anything to do with them.
Moses was too sleepy to walk, and her feet might have started to hurt from walking, but she was still holding on.
Mov's own feet were hurting, and I'm afraid the three companions were not much better either.
A few people could chat happily in the afternoon and think about the future.
But at this moment, he didn't even have the energy to speak.
Half past nine in the evening.
I felt that my friends could no longer walk.
So Moff asked everyone to take a break.
Several children squatted in front of the wall, because it had rained before and the ground was wet, so they did not dare to sit down.
I was really tired and couldn't stand it anymore, so I just didn't care and sat down.
Moses fell asleep on his shoulder, his face was dirty, but he slept peacefully.
The other three companions shook their heads weakly.
In fact, I wasn't very full for dinner. After all, a bowl of broth with no meat and a piece of bread couldn't fill my stomach.
In addition, all the physical work I did today made me feel tired, sleepy and hungry at this time.
"How about we go to the hotel before, three silver coins a night."
"Yes, don't we have enough money?"
"But I'm a little hungry and want to eat."
"I am so tired"
Leaning against the wall, several people were so depressed that they could no longer speak loudly.
Mauv sat there, his head lowered and silent.
Is this the world of adults?
There was a puddle in front of him, and the light here was pretty good. When he lowered his head, he could see his face reflected in reverse.
Also dirty.
He looked at himself in the water and his young face.
One advantage he has is that he can recognize reality clearly.
I worked hard all day today and earned four silver coins and five people.
They could indeed find a place to stay for the night if they wanted, but they would have to start all over again tomorrow.
With their current situation, they can persist for one day, two days, or three days.
But four days, five days?
Today's experience was enough for him to realize that the world of adults is not easy at all.
Turning around to look at his three companions, he could see that they were all holding on, and no one was willing to say they missed the church first.
I looked at the sleeping Moses again. She was very small, only five years old.
Even though he was very unwilling to do so, Mofu had to recognize the reality that he now had no ability to change his current situation.
He gently lifted Moses up and let her rest on the other partner's shoulder.
Moff stood up and walked towards a place.
This move made the three companions look up, a little confused.
"Moff, what are you doing?"
"Moff?"
Moff's back disappeared around the corner. The three of them had no strength to get up and chase him, so they lowered their heads and continued to wait.
They believed that Moff would not abandon them.
Moff kept walking along the road with his head down.
"What's wrong? Are you giving up? Isn't this the adult world you dream of?"
A voice sounded.
Mov stopped, raised his head, and looked at the man standing in front of him. He never left and watched silently.
Biting his lip, Mofu tried his best to hold back his grievance.
He didn't dare to go any further because he knew that no one except his parents was willing to spoil him anymore.
Lu Qi took two steps forward, smiled and stretched out his hand to rub Mofu's head: "You are still so young, don't always think about being an adult."
These words easily penetrated Mofu's psychological defense.
He couldn't hold it in anymore, tears welled up from his eyes like rain.
Throwing himself into Lu Qi's arms, Mofu cried loudly.
"I don't want to cause any trouble to my uncles and aunts."
"I don't want to be a burden anymore!"
"I don't want to be thrown away again!"
He was very afraid, very afraid of what he least wanted to experience, the second time.
As long as he can make money, he will no longer be a burden. If this were the case, his mother might not abandon him in the first place.
If this is the case, the uncles and aunts in the church will definitely be happy, right?
He was the eldest of the children, so he had to protect Moses and everyone else.
He wants to make a lot of money so that no one will be left behind again.
But
But why is this happening?
This time, Lu Qi just listened quietly. It wasn't until Mofu stopped crying that he had no energy left, and then asked: "How much do you think it is, a lot of money?"
Mo Fu sobbed a few times, thought for a moment and said, "Thirty gold!"
He has never seen how much thirty gold is.
But there must be a lot.
Otherwise, mom and dad wouldn't have had a big fight over it.
Thirty gold can definitely change a lot of things.
"After all, he is the number one soldier under my banner. Why are you so unambitious?"
Lu Qi glanced at him, put his hands behind his back, and said enigmatically, "I can make you a thousand gold coins, believe it or not."
Mofu asked blankly: "How much is one thousand gold coins?"
This was beyond his concept.
Glancing at him again, Lu Qi thought about it and described it appropriately: "Just the candy you like to eat, if you eat five of them a day, you can eat it for a hundred years."
"a hundred years"
Moff's mouth opened wide. He only knew that one year was a long time ago.
That hundred years must be a long, long time.
That thousand gold pieces must be a lot.
This made him feel a little unsure: "Can I earn so much?"
Without an answer, Lu Qi asked: "Do you believe me?"
Upon hearing this question, Mofu replied without hesitation: "Believe it!"
"Then just trust me."
Lu Qi patted his head and said, "Go and call your friends over. Today's life experience ends here."
Mofu said oh, turned around and ran away.
After a while, he called the other friends over.
Lu Qi has already prepared a carriage.
On the carriage.
Looking at the five children who fell asleep shortly after lying down.
Lux sighed and touched Moses' hair distressedly.
This is the world, and it's inherently unfair.
She also saw that this was not a willful act of several children.
They are just innocent and don't want to cause any more trouble to the adults.
This day is just a journey embarked on by their young self-esteem.
"You said you have a solution, what is it?"
She looked at Lu Qi curiously.
He said he could help Mofu and the others make money, and even she could tell that Lu Qi wasn't joking at that time.
Lu Qi smiled and said: "Don't ask so hastily, I don't even know if it can be done."
Lux said: "Then you still dare to guarantee that?"
"At worst, you can fill it in yourself. Just show your love."
Lu Qi smiled indifferently.
A thousand pieces of gold is a lot to others, but to him it is just a drop in the bucket.
Even if my method doesn't work, I can just pay for it myself.
This was not Lu Qi's impromptu idea, but he had some vague ideas for a long time, but it was only fully implemented today.
And I think it seems quite appropriate.
What drove Mauv and the others to leave the church?
A big part of it is pride.
Maybe it was what Lu Qi said before that left a deep impression on Mo Fu.
He no longer wants to be a burden, and he doesn’t want to get without giving, so he wants to prove himself by making money.
If that's the case, wouldn't it be enough to think of a way for them to both work and earn money?
The carriage stopped at the Church of the Illuminator.
Hearing the noise outside, several Illuminators in white robes came out, along with Kashina and Fiona.
After hearing the news this afternoon, we were not so anxious.
However, I am still a little worried about the children.
He woke up the five children in the carriage, and after getting off the carriage, he saw the Illuminators who came to pick them up.
Several children looked away.
It was Mo Fu who stood up first and said guiltily: "I'm sorry, we shouldn't leave privately."
With him taking the lead, the other children followed suit and apologized.
But it was all from the bottom of my heart, I was just embarrassed before.
The Illuminators who understood the intention of these children running away from home were naturally reluctant to blame these sensible children, but felt very distressed.
They have no parents, so they can only learn to be sensible so early.
He took Moff and the others in, washed them up, filled their stomachs, and then arranged for them to have a good sleep.
At this time, in the backyard of the church.
Kashina looked at Lu Qi's side face. Under the moonlight, the chiseled face looked very beautiful.
After looking at it for a few times, Kashina suddenly remembered the purpose of calling Lu Qi and said seriously: "Your Highness, I want to thank you this time."
She knew that Lu Qi had followed Mo Fu and the others from the beginning to the present in order to untie the knot in their minds.
It can be said that it is very troublesome.
"It doesn't matter, I have nothing to do."
Lu Qi smiled.
He turned to look at the girl next to him, and he could see the exhaustion from a long day on her face. She was indeed a kind-hearted girl, and she had been worrying and blaming herself for the five of them for a long time.
Kashina saw Lu Qi turn his head and make eye contact, then she quickly moved away.
Then she sat quietly on the bench, with the moonlight falling on her beautiful face.
"Right." Suddenly something occurred to Lu Qi. He reached out and groped in his arms, then took out a box and handed it over, "This is for you."
Kashina took it doubtfully and asked curiously: "What is this?"
As she spoke, she opened the box and immediately saw a beautiful necklace inside.
My heart suddenly jumped unconsciously.
"Given to me?"
Kashina couldn't help but confirm.
"Of course, the price is not expensive, it's just a little thought." Lu Qi nodded, "I think it suits you very well. I will give it to you in the afternoon."
"very beautiful."
Kashina's ears turned red unconsciously, she felt the temperature on her face rising, and her heartbeat quickened.
She is a girl from the richest family. What precious necklace has she not seen?
She even wore priceless necklaces, but nowadays there are almost no necklaces that can make her heart beat.
But at this moment, for some reason, my heart was beating fast when I looked at the necklace in front of me, which was priced at more than a hundred gold.
Just as he was about to say something more, he heard footsteps.
The frightened Kashina quickly put the box away.
"You guys are over here!"
Lux was in a good mood after eating and drinking, and came trotting over.
Following behind was Fiona.
The two of them had dinner at the church and did not go back to eat after all.
Of course, even though the dishes are ordinary, they are not picky.
But Lu Qi was different. He was a picky eater, so he didn't eat much.
Prepare to go back in the evening to reward yourself with a small midnight snack.
When Lu Qi saw that everyone was here, he said, "You happen to be here. I have an idea. Are you interested in hearing it?"
Hearing this, Fiona looked with interest and sat down.
And Lux thought of the method Lu Qi said on the carriage before, and nodded expectantly.
Kashina asked: "What do you think?"
“An idea that might change the church’s economic crisis.”
Lucci replied.
Kashina nodded and became quiet, waiting for Lu Qi to continue.
Lu Qi cleared his throat and asked, "What do you think of the newspaper?"
"newspaper?"
The three of them looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.
Lu Qi continued to explain: "It is something that combines many deeds of Demacia on one piece of paper and publishes it so that the entire capital and even the entire Demacia can see it."
After coming to the capital to observe for so long, Lu Qi discovered that Demacia lacked a very key thing.
That is information dissemination.
That’s not to say there’s none, but it’s very backward.
In modern times, mobile phones are used to spread information. If you put your finger on the screen, you can receive any news immediately.
In the Middle Ages and even ancient times when there were no mobile phones, information dissemination relied on a few things written on a piece of paper.
Usually when something happens, it is passed from one to ten or ten to a hundred, but this efficiency can only be described as slow.
But newspapers are different. They record so many things in a variety of ways, and they spread faster.
What Lu Qi saw at this time was an untapped market.
Now, even the newspaper delivery guy has been found in advance.
Aren't the children in this church a suitable candidate? Delivering newspapers is not a difficult task, and it just satisfies Mofu and his friends' idea of making money through hard work.
This can’t be considered child labor, right?
Even the base area has been found.
There are three Illuminator churches in the capital, which are distributed in three areas of the city.
Using them as a base, it can spread to the entire royal capital.
"That's about it. Do you have anything to ask?"
Lu Qi explained.
At this time, after the three of them listened to Lu Qi's explanation, it was basically easy to understand.
After hearing what Lu Qi said, I felt that it was indeed feasible.
After all, humans are social creatures after all, and gossip is an inevitable hobby for everyone.
If it is true as Lu Qi said, everyone can learn about the big and small events in the capital as soon as they wake up every day, which will indeed greatly satisfy their desire for gossip.
And it’s pretty good to be able to gain insight into the world without leaving home.
When it comes to problems, there aren’t many.
After all, Lu Qi said everything that needed to be said.
Seeing that the three of them were silent, Lu Qi asked: "I have said so much, how about you guys react?"
Fiona asked: "What reaction do you want?"
Lu Qi said: "For example, after listening to it, I was so shocked that I took out my wallet and offered it to him, crying and asking the boss to take it with me."
After hearing this, the three girls were all speechless.
"Don't even think about such a big reaction, but I'm really interested."
Fiona smiled and said.
Lux and Kashina also nodded.
This idea is not that shocking. In fact, after Lu Qi explained it, they understood it so quickly because they had seen similar patterns.
After all, such a large empire would have been doomed long ago without any information dissemination.
However, what Lu Qi proposed was more novel and had more ideas.
I forgot to thank you for the tip recently, so I’ll thank you together here.
Thank you to every reader for supporting me, thank you very much!
