Royal Gold Magistrate

In the dim bar of the slum, the three sat facing each other.

This bar is very dilapidated, there are only three or four lights on, and the drinks are only bad wines, most of which are to satisfy some spiritual needs of the lower class, and it is not good to talk about.

The wine was on the table, and no one touched it.

Hope's posture was extremely stretched, with one arm resting on the chair, and asked: "If you want to ask me anything, just ask."

"I think..."

"I want to know about the situation in the slums. Why are there so many poor people gathered in the Holy City, and what do they rely on for survival?" Father Soljay asked before Lai Gou'er finished speaking.

Hope said: "Is it strange that there are so many poor people in the holy city? These slums are the descendants of the artisans at the beginning of the construction of the holy city. They live in the slums during the day, and at night they will enter the inner city to sweep the streets or help others repair them." This is how houses survive from generation to generation.”

"Then...the church has so much wealth, why don't you think about helping these people improve their lives?" Father Soljay asked, "Besides, there are people like you in the slums, and their lives shouldn't be so bad. .”

"Improvement?" Hope snorted, "The church depends entirely on such people. If they live well, how can the church live?"

"I came here to do charity because of an accident...Two months ago, an organization called the Mutual Aid Society appeared in the slums of the Holy City. The Mutual Aid Society has been helping the poor in the slums to build board houses, clean up garbage, and I don’t ask for anything in return, I just came to take a look when I heard about it.”

"I didn't expect it to be true. I admire it. The slums you see now are much better than two months ago. At that time, the streets were full of feces and garbage. If it weren't for the mutual aid association, there would be nowhere to go. .”

"Later, I saw that they were really working hard, so I gave them a sum of money, and took time to come over to see how their work was doing, and whether they were wasting my money."

Lai Gou'er was a little happy after hearing this.

The Mutual Aid Society is the skin of the Brotherhood. They arrived at the Holy City one step earlier, and Xiaoshuai had already reported it.

Da Zhuang and Fo Bole are active in the city.

I didn't ask them much about how they do things on weekdays, but I didn't expect to make some achievements here.

"Hygiene doesn't seem to be easy to tidy up, does it? How did they do it?" Lai Gou'er asked curiously.

Hope seemed to remember something, and chuckled: "The people in the Mutual Aid Association are a bit evil. Originally, these poor people had no rules at all and urinated indiscriminately on the street. Even if the toilet was repaired, no one went there. Later, the Mutual Aid Association organized a group of People are wandering on the street, and when they meet someone, a group of people will go up and watch, and as time goes by, no one dares to mess around."

"Later, they distributed food and medicine and attracted many people to join. Now they are very popular in the slums."

"Father, if you want to stay more comfortably in the church, then you can deal with the mutual aid society. They can help you solve many troubles. Those poor people look pitiful, and sometimes they are very hateful. Don't worry about it if something happens. on my head."

Father Solger nodded, and took a sip of the sour wine.

Seeing that he was speechless, Lai Gou'er said, "I came from an eastern country. In the future, business development will inevitably involve dealing with the Holy See. I don't know the relationship with the Holy City Church..."

Hope knocked on the table and said, "My friend, I can drink with you, but if you want to inquire about this, it's not a normal price. But I'm interested in goods from the East. What do you sell?"

Lai Gou'er took out a jade pendant from his pocket and handed it over.

"How is this?"

Hope glanced at it: "Stones are worthless."

"This is jade."

"I don't care what you call it. Only gems can be sold at a high price here. You don't recognize this thing outside. Is there anything else?"

Lai Gouer pondered for a long time: "How about porcelain?"

porcelain! ?

Hope's eyes widened suddenly, and he leaned forward and put his hands on the table: "You have oriental porcelain... You are from Feika, and you sold Feika's porcelain from you?"

Picked it up, picked up the treasure!

That thing is basically priceless now, and it circulates extremely fast on the black market, and the demand is huge.

Now that he accidentally touched the end of the thread, Hope was ecstatic.

Lai Gou'er thought for a while, and felt that it was okay to say it, so he said yes.

Hope immediately laughed: "Okay! Okay! You met the right person. You shouldn't talk to the church about this matter. If they find out, at least they'll take your skin off. Say less."

"It must be the person who sells goods on the black market for you who encouraged you to come here. This business communicates with the church openly. If you don't cooperate, you will definitely be hit. In the future, if you want to make more money, you can only rely on his channel, but if you encounter it, I will count it as you." Lucky. Cooperate with the church, he eats meat and you drink soup, cooperate with me, everyone eats meat together!"

Lai Gou'er frowned.

He believed most of what Hope said in his heart, and since he entered the holy city and saw the way of the Taifu sect, he no longer wanted to talk about it.

It's just that he didn't expect Duke Alves to do such a trick behind his back.

But the person in front of me has just met, his identity is also unknown, and he is not trustworthy.

"Mr. Hope, we just met, why should I trust you?"

Hope slapped the table with a big hand: "It doesn't matter whether it's working for me in the Holy City. My business is spread across many countries. You can ask around in the Holy City, and there is no one who doesn't know me, Hope! "

"Aren't you a furniture seller? How can you be so famous for selling furniture?" Lai Gou'er said lightly.

Hope chuckled: "I, Hope, take at least five women with me when I go shopping, and they are the same every time. Do you think there will be someone who doesn't know me?"

What kind of person is this... with more than 50 energy and still so good?

Lai Gou'er was silent for a moment: "Then you are really awesome."

Hope spread his hands: "I can prove myself. I don't dare to believe all your empty teeth. If you can prove that you can produce porcelain, then go to my house and let's discuss in detail. Even if the business fails, I promise to know." Everything is said. You should also be able to see that I am very straightforward. "

Lai Gou'er was not afraid at all, but he glanced at Father Soljay hesitantly.

Father Soljay was still drinking, and when he saw him looking at him, he said, "You go, I will stay here, and I will see the Pope when he has time."

Hope looked at Lai Gou'er, pointed at the priest and showed two rows of white teeth: "I like him, such a person is really rare in the holy city!"
