Chapter 167 Development Forces
Qian Wu took Da Meng for a leisurely stroll around the east of the city, and then headed towards the north of the city, seeing all directions and listening to all directions along the way, buying street snacks and eating while walking, enjoying it leisurely.Da Meng was also eating, but he focused more on Qian Wu and her surroundings, so as to protect her as soon as possible.After coming to Fucheng, both Da Gao and Da Wei were injured to varying degrees, which shows how dangerous the Xue family's situation is, and he dare not relax his vigilance at all.

Until she walked into the west of the city, Qianwu had a certain understanding of Fucheng. No matter what era or city it was in, the disadvantages of poverty and filth were always hidden behind the prosperity.

The rich and noble in the east and north of the city, even the beggars are young and powerful. Of course, there are not many of them, and the government may be in charge.The southern part of the city and the western part of the city are the most chaotic, ragged people abound, and most of the people's mental outlooks are numb or sick.

At the corner of the West Market, a pair of beggar-like grandparents and grandchildren sat down with each other supporting each other, and took out a tiled bowl with a piece missing to beg. The small broken bamboo basket on the side contained half a basket of vegetable leaves they picked up in the market. There are grains like a handful of beans.The old man sat against the wall, and from time to time stretched out the broken bowl in his hand to the passing crowd, and the children followed suit, but occasionally they would look at the steamed stuffed bun stall and swallow with difficulty.

Qian Wu stood still in front of them, and the old man looked at Qian Wu with a kind face, and immediately stretched out the broken bowl, "Well-meaning young master, please give me some." He begged in a feeble voice.

"What do you want?" Qianwu probed, is it really good to be so unclear about the goal?Does this mean you can think that you want everything, just by begging? !
The old man looked at Qian Wu in astonishment, and he knew that he had never encountered such a situation.One doesn't pity him, and the other doesn't hate him, but the young eyes are very deep, and asking him such an unreasonable question is a bit like finding fault?His grandson clutched his arm in fear. "Here, give me something to eat, the child is hungry." There will also be rich kids who like to tease people and trouble them for fun, but looking at Qian Wu in front of her, she doesn't look like such a person at all.

Qian Wu immediately handed him a steaming steamed stuffed bun, and the refreshingness made the old man feel a little apprehensive. "Thank you son, thank you son." After gaining something, I subconsciously nodded and bowed my thanks, really professional.Then the old man handed the bun to his grandson, but the child swallowed the bun into his arms holding back his saliva.The old man touched his head in relief, and finally showed a faint smile, because there is an older brother in the family, but he just fell ill recently.

"Where is the old man from? Why are you begging?" Qianwu asked with a smile, full of curiosity, like a child waiting for a story, and the old man couldn't help but nodded when he saw it. It doesn't matter.

"We are from Cangwu Mansion. We moved here from the previous generation, and we have household registration in this city. It was better a few years ago, we were doing a small business, and we also had a house to live in. But later, the son and daughter-in-law gave birth to When I got sick, I sold all the valuable things, but it couldn't be cured. On the contrary, my livelihood became a problem. I'm old, no one hires an old man like me who can't work, and it's nothing Craftsmanship, so now the three of us can only rely on begging and picking up other people's leftovers." The old man said, full of nostalgia for the past life, but also full of helplessness for the current life.

"Why don't you sell your body?" Even if you are not free, you can still survive. It shouldn't be as embarrassing as it is now.

The old man smiled bitterly, "Will there be one or two servants who will be tossed to death on the mass grave in Xitou someday? It's not a last resort, and no one wants to go this way. Besides, no one will want an old man like me Sigh, the two boys in the family are still young, and they can't go to such a place. "One is five years old and the other is only seven years old. They don't understand anything. Don't talk about whether they can go in or out. If they are confused, they will be bullied and wronged to death." up.

"Are there many beggars in the city? Are they all unwilling to sell themselves?"

"Well, there must be hundreds of people. Most of them are forced to be helpless, and some people are lazy. Anyway, there are various reasons. Eat, but also very little amount, very little when you can eat enough.But they can’t leave the city, because if they don’t have money to go out, they can’t get in. So the shallow mountains in the city are scavenged by the poor, and the deep mountains have no tools, and there are many ferocious beasts.

"And where do you all live?"

"The better ones have their own thatched huts in the west, and they cost a hundred dollars to buy. Those who don't have any can only live in the dilapidated temples near Luanfengang, where there are too many people and competition, almost every day. Some people died due to various reasons. Alas... "Looking at Qianwu's fearless appearance, the old man regarded her as a target of revenge. To be honest, there are very few people like them who are willing to follow her." They strike up a conversation.

"Well, I have a business to do with beggars, no gender, no age, no limit to the number of people, can the old man help to inform them, if you are interested, you can find me at Luan Graves in the west in the afternoon. After the matter is completed, I will pay the old man How about ten pennies?" Qian Wu's words frightened the grandpa and grandson so much that they almost hugged each other with their bodies shaking.You little doll, what are you doing in the graveyard if you have nothing to do?It's weird, isn't it? !Even Dameng's body became stiff, the boss is really...
"Okay, okay, the old man will do it now." Grandpa mentioned his grandson and ran away in a hurry.He has Shi Wen, no matter how scary and weird things are, he has to take care of them, Shi Wen might be able to buy some medicine for his grandson.Moreover, in broad daylight, he felt that Qian Wu would definitely not do anything outrageous.
