Ark: I adopted Seria at the beginning

At the cocktail party, wine glasses are intertwined.

The nobles wandered around this luxurious dinner with their own thoughts.

But today’s protagonist is just like Colombia back then.

Almost everyone's eyes fell on a little boy in the corner.

And a certain Scorpion also knew what these people were thinking, but he didn't intend to point it out.

Rather than caring about the intrigues and twists and turns in this banquet.

It's better to drink some beer to make you feel better.

Let's discuss things at night, and be happy when you are happy...

Huang Cheng deliberately avoided everyone. Whenever someone wanted to come over with a wine glass, Huang Cheng would immediately leave where he was and move to another venue.

Generally speaking, when some people see Huang Cheng's actions, as long as they are sensible, they will not continue to stalk him.

.......

Downtown area.

It was silent and there wasn't even any trash to be seen on the cement streets.

The trash cans were cleaned and there was no trace of garbage, and the shops were retreating one after another.

It seemed as if all the people in the lower city had disappeared.

It's like this in the morning, and it's like this in the evening.

After a breath, it seemed that the whole city had come to a standstill.

Xiacheng District is like an ocean.

It was quiet on the upper level, but there was already an undercurrent below.

No amount of disaster will stop a thing from making bloody profits.

That is the dark side hidden in this city.

That dark side that is not protected by law or restricted by morality.

black market.

Unlike the prohibition that Colombia once promoted, Victoria's black market was born far earlier than that free country.

It existed at least since the founding of the People's Republic of China. At that time, the black market spread less due to official suppression, and the content of transactions was not very extensive.

At most, they were valuable accessories stolen by some thieving kittens from the upper floors.

The rich people above are too lazy to spend so much energy looking for it, so they might as well just spend a lot of money to buy it back.

Most of the black markets are places for poor people, and you can make a living by running some small stall businesses.

It's just that the current environment has changed. Due to the sharp increase in food prices, some black markets in Victoria's capital are also full of victims.

Of course, this is a place where poor people are suffering, and businessmen in the black market have their own ways.

Even if they are hungry, the nobles will not be able to starve them.

Merchants and nobles all have one characteristic in common, which is that they are good at exploiting people with lower status than themselves.

This is why they exist in this world.

The current Glasgow Gang also encountered such difficulties, that is, they ran out of food.

Originally, this gang was formed by a group of ordinary people hugging each other for warmth.

Occasionally, they collected protection fees in the lower city. Of course, under Weina's education, the members of the Glasgow Gang really protected them when they collected protection fees.

He is the kind of person who will start fighting with a lot of tools when he shouts.

Although their combat effectiveness has been greatly improved with the help of a certain lady named Wang, they are still human beings and they need to eat.

Now Vina doesn't even eat her own lollipop.

The purpose is to save a little food for the gang.

Vina looked at the gang members lying on planks and crates.

Indra, Dagda... They who were very energetic now had to lie down and rest.

On the surface, he still looked like he was careless about the matter, but in fact, he was already very anxious in his heart.

Normally, Wei Na doesn't have too many expressions, and she is a semi-facial paralyzed character.

It is said that this is beneficial to maintaining one's personal image and showing dignity.

At least that's what Gawain told himself.

"Let's go shopping in the black market. I hope the boss there can look on my face..."

Vina took her hammer, walked into a hidden alley, and knocked on a door three times.

"Who is it?"

"Your friend in heaven."

"Miss Wei Na, please forgive me for my offense. You have owed me nearly a month of unpaid bills. What do you want to do here this time?"

"If you want some mechanical parts, I can get anything from here, and I can even give you the engine for free. But if you want a piece of bread or even a piece of candy, please forgive me for not being able to fulfill your wish."

"I want to use our friendship..."

"Ms. Wei Na, although your friendship or favor is very valuable to people in the lower class. In the past, I would have been proud and satisfied with this decision. But times are different now. Would you like to move to another place?" wool?"

With a banging of the door.

The black market boss directly turned away the girl in front of him.

"It's a bit difficult now..."

As a leader, Veena must think about how her life will work next.

Now is no longer the time for petty quarrels.

But I want to make a big fuss, but I don’t have the ability.

According to her plan, it would take at least five or six years for her to develop before she would have the capital to launch a rebellion against Victoria's top leaders by seizing a city.

If the disaster hadn't happened so suddenly, she would have been unprepared.

Weina should still be playing house in the Lower City area now.

There is no way, not everyone has the support of the nobles.

Moreover, Wei Na did not want to rely on a group of nobles who only knew how to exploit the people at the bottom. Victoria wanted a thorough bottom-up revolution.

Ever since she came to the lower city from the palace, she had almost lost contact with the lower city.

I only had some interactions with a few ministers in the palace.

Also to stay away from political struggles.

Vina was thinking about the several black market shops she visited in succession.

As a result, no one with whom she was familiar or unfamiliar with her was willing to help her.

The girl didn't mean to blame them. It's so difficult to survive in this world now.

Thank God that these people who only know how to drink blood don't exploit themselves.

Devina had long heard of Victoria's great shortage.

She used to laugh and tease her, but now she really can't laugh anymore.

Relying on the power of the world's most powerful country, it dominates almost all regions, sending troops to occupy land and divide colonies at will.

When did Victoria begin to decline?

This is inseparable from Colombia's independence in the Bolivarian region.

Victoria lost a very fertile overseas colony, and sent out all its elite troops to fight the War of Independence, resulting in a serious decline in military strength.

The economy has also been slowed down a lot...

Just when Wei Na was about to go back.

Suddenly she felt something unusual shaking on the ground.

Someone is following me!
