crush the rich

Seeing this scene, Na Qi easily realized that the children were no match for these grown men.

Even if the other party is also very thin because of poverty, it is still much stronger than a few children who don't know.Na Qi couldn't muster up the courage to confront them at all, so she could only stammer and defend: "It's not...it's not stolen..."

"It's not stolen, where did you get so many breadfruits!? All the nearby breadfruit trees have their own owners!?"

"No...there's a bread tree over there...it's planted by the roadside. You can pick it wherever you go."

Several men looked at each other.

In fact, they also discovered the changes in the manor outside the city, as well as the bread trees on the roadside, but because of the fear of the mage, although the bread trees were so directly transplanted outside the wall, almost no one dared to touch them.

The deterrent power of the magician can be seen.

But the fact that several children were able to steal breadfruit from the magician brought them new ideas.Could it be that those cruel magicians also have compassion?

If so, a few men will have a solution.

They slowly approached the children.

After a while, the mage in the farm suddenly felt something and said, "Those children are here again."

Another sensed it and said, "Didn't they just pick some breadfruit? Don't they still want to stockpile food?"

The elder mage shook his head: "No, it doesn't look like this."

He had already spotted some adults sneaking around with the children, and he already had an idea in his mind.

Under the long-distance surveillance of the poor, the children picked the fruits tremblingly. They were also afraid that the magician would suddenly appear and catch them, and they would be tossed by the poor later. They were completely panicked.

The youngest child turned his head to look at the poor men watching them from time to time, and finally couldn't help breaking down and crying.Na Qi was so frightened that she quickly covered his mouth, and ended up covering his nose as well.The child began to struggle desperately.

Na Qi didn't notice this at all, it was the only reason she had left to stop her little friend from crying.

She desperately yelled in a low voice: "Don't yell...don't yell..." While looking in panic to the other side of the road near the back door of the farm, the little boy struggled desperately with all his strength He didn't take her hand away either.

But she heard a voice behind her saying: "...if you don't let go, he will probably suffocate to death."

It was a completely unfamiliar voice, and Na Qi had never heard it before, but she always felt that the tone was very elegant, with a mysterious rhythm.

The boy on the tree looked back, but his soul was frightened, and he missed and fell from the tree.Several thoughts flashed through his mind at that moment, but none of them were caught. In the end, only the fear and relief of death remained.

He thought: I am going to die.

Yet he felt no pain.

Na Qi saw her partner fall to the ground slowly and lightly like a feather.

She let go of her hand in amazement, allowing the little boy to breathe again.

After the young boy was let go, he didn't cry anymore and forgot to be afraid.

Naqi looked up and looked at the mage.

For a moment she felt no fear.

The person in front of him has an elegant robe and a soft expression, making it impossible to feel a trace of fear.He is a mage, but he has a mage different from what Na Qi imagined, and there is no threat of blood on his body, nor a vicious grin.

Naqi asked, "Are you... a magician?"

The mage hummed.

Na Qi should have been very scared, but seeing the mage's peaceful attitude, those fears and despair sank inexplicably, leaving only a little uneasiness.

She said: "I...we didn't mean to steal breadfruit...I...I just...I just saw them outside the fence, and thought maybe you don't really need them..."

She murmured like this, but her voice became smaller and smaller, probably feeling that her words were too much like sophistry.

The mage asked, "Are you orphans?"

Na Qi was taken aback, then nodded.

The mage said: "We need people to work, and we need food and housing. Do you want to come to work?"

Naki and the two boys both opened their mouths in amazement.

The mage asked, "Don't want to?"

Na Qi shook her head abruptly and asked, "Can we?"

The older boy pulled Lanaki's clothes and whispered in a voice that he thought the mage couldn't hear: "They are mages!"

Naqi said: "Didn't you say that a mage doesn't have to eat children? And he doesn't look like a bad guy!"

The boy said: "A lot of bad guys don't look like bad guys!"

Naqi said, "But I don't think he is."

The mage was not in a hurry either, he watched the children while waiting for them to finish their discussion.He thinks these three children are quite smart, and magician is a profession that requires IQ, and they all like smart children.

I just don't know if these kids have any talent for magic.Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't have one. Your Excellency Lian's current big plan requires a lot of manpower. As long as you can run and jump, there is always something that can come in handy.

And young children are also more likely to teach, imbue and absorb new ideas.

The boy stared at the mage for a while and said, "You promise...you won't eat us!"

The corner of the mage's mouth twitched, but he held back and didn't complain, and said, "Why eat you? You don't have much meat. It would be more valuable to let you do errands."

If he coaxed them nicely, the boy might think he had other intentions.But after hearing the mage speak so impolitely, the boy felt that he really didn't intend to eat him... After hesitating for a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "I..." Looking back at Na Qi and the others, he choked out a sentence, " I would like to do things for you."

The mage turned around and motioned for them to follow.

At this time, Na Qi and the other boy had no time to express their disagreement-in fact, they didn't have any ideas at this time, and having no choice saved them the time of entanglement.

Then Naqi and her friends started working on the farm for no reason.She was a little scared at first, but when the fresh processed sweet bread was distributed to her hands, and all kinds of magical earth and plant spells were displayed in front of her eyes, she forgot to be afraid unconsciously.

Although the woman who takes care of them will also have a stern face because they are not doing their job well, but most of the time, she is a gentle and charitable person... She said that she believes in the Church of Life.

Na Qi had heard about the Church of Life.

Among the many rumors, the reputation of this church is very changeable.Some people say that it is the church to which a very benevolent god belongs, but others say that it is a puppet launched by an evil mage trying to buy people's hearts.There is no Life Association in Lake City, and this is the first time Naqi has met a Life Cultist.

After seeing the real person, she felt inexplicably that the so-called evil was a lie, and the previous rumor was the truth.

Naqi has seen the life of an apprentice or hired hand in the city. She is ready to do a lot of heavy work and barely eat half-fed. Even so, as long as she can not be bullied by tramps and does not She was really satisfied as a sacrifice of evil magic.

But she didn't expect that the next development was completely different from what she had imagined.

The daily work is indeed very busy. They have been carrying things and processing various fruits and vegetables in complicated and unexplained ways.Although the reason is unknown, it looks more like brewing or pickling something, and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with magic.Although Naqi's knowledge is limited, most of the fruits and vegetables can't be recognized, but they don't seem to be magic plants or strange curse materials, but ordinary fruits and vegetables full of fragrance.

In addition, they have to carry some breadfruit and a kind of hard and small fruit and use magic machinery to remove the shells, then wash them, dry them, crush them, sieve them, add water and knead them, and finally add sugar and Unknown spices are put into the oven to make bread that is softer and sweeter than breadfruit.

The color of this kind of bread is also beautiful, and the taste is like the clouds in the sky.Na Qi sometimes has such bread for breakfast. Although it is some defective products that are damaged in shape during the baking process, what does that matter?It tastes just as good.

As time went by, the manor hired more workers every so often, and Naki even met acquaintances from the previous neighborhood.She hadn't left the farm for a long time, and only found out about the situation outside from them.

It is said that the bread and pickles they make, as well as the juices and wine they brew, will be sent to shops in the upper city for sale. The price is high and the supply is in short supply.

After Na Qi washed and washed, although she could not be said to be particularly beautiful, she had good facial features.Then one day, the Believer lady asked her if she wanted to be a waitress in a store uptown.

As a waiter, she must learn how to talk to noble people and rich guests, how to please them and make them happy. She may have to learn some simple words and calculation methods, and at the same time, she is more likely to encounter trouble... But she You can get wages and have the opportunity to enjoy better food.

How could Na Qi refuse?

But among the three children, only she was given such an opportunity.

Meeting for the first time after hearing the news, the older boy was silent and didn't even speak to her.Naqi seemed to realize the significance of this incident, but the lady said that the store only had girls as waiters, and the handymen were all grown and powerful men.

...boys don't stand a chance.

Seeing the boy turn and leave without making a sound, Na Qi rushed forward, grabbed his arm, and said, "Wait...when I come back from learning how to read and count...I'll teach you!"

Now that they were dependent on each other, even if their fate changed, Na Qi felt that she would work hard to never leave her.

In fact, at this time, Hucheng was completely boiling.Although allowing magicians to open shops is something the king allows, but the impact of the food in the shops is unimaginable.

Only nobles who have been to the capital of the sages have tasted these foods before.Even if they exaggerate how delicious the food is, it is impossible for people without corresponding experience to imagine, so not many people believe it.

But when the mages brought food to this city, even some cautious nobles did not dare to try it rashly, but they could always see it with their own eyes and smell their fragrance with their noses.

In the royal palace, a group of nobles with the highest status in the country were waiting for the servants to bring the first batch of food from the mage's restaurant to verify whether it was a magic drug with curses and deceptive effects. 33 Novel Network

Then, the door of the palace was pushed open.
