After unlocking the material space, I raised my younger siblings in a farmhouse.

So Monkey Three and Fatty decided to target Lin Chuyi after discussing it.

As beggars, they were used to being humble, so their idea was to take advantage of Lin Chuyi's sympathy and cheat him out of some money.

If they were really asked to rob openly, they would not dare to do so. It was not because they were afraid that they could not beat Lin Chuyi, but because they were afraid that if they robbed the younger one, the older one would come. They still had to survive in Qingshui County, and they could not lose the big picture for the sake of the small one.

As for whether they could defraud money from Lin Chuyi, it was not even within their consideration.

Are you kidding? If those two little brats can do it, shouldn’t it be easy for the two adults to do it?

They even began to imagine how much money they could defraud from Lin Chuyi, and they had even considered how to spend the money.

As a result, they waited from the bright sunshine to the sunset, and their four eyes were almost popped out, but they didn't see the three people come out of the inn.

On the contrary, because they were too focused, with their eyes wide open and mouths slightly open, coupled with their beggar clothes, they looked like two idiots, and won the sympathy of many people.

Those from better-off families would throw a copper coin onto the empty bowl in front of them.

In the past, when encountering such a situation, the two would immediately pick up the copper coins, bow repeatedly to the person who gave the copper coins, and keep saying auspicious words to express their gratitude.

Today, Monkey Three and Fatty had a bigger goal and were unwilling to let go of the big fish, Lin Chuyi, for a little profit, so they maintained their previous actions and did not even pick up a penny.

This further solidified the view of others that these were two fools, and they couldn't help but feel more sympathy for them. From time to time, someone would throw coins into their broken bowls.

Other beggars in the surrounding area were envious when they saw the situation here, but they did not dare to rob because they could not beat Monkey Three and Fatty.

Those were two lunatics who dared to steal their things. Even if they couldn't beat them, they would still tear a piece of flesh off that person. They didn't want to fight against those two lunatics.

However, this did not stop them from following suit. They went to a place farther away from Monkey Three and Fatty and started acting crazy and stupid like them.

It's true, the effect of this trick was immediate. At the end of the day, their harvest was equivalent to that of several days before.

News spreads the fastest in the beggar circle. Soon, beggars in other streets followed suit and each of them gained something.

As a result, the residents of the county town discovered that the beggars in the county had collectively become less intelligent, and they spread the news as a form of entertainment.

Of course, it’s not that no one has discovered the truth. Beggars have their own fixed activity areas. Even if the residents in the surrounding areas have never dealt with beggars, they still have some impression of them from seeing them coming and going every day.

He was a good beggar who had worked on the nearby streets for several years. Suddenly he became stupid, and they all became stupid together. It was obvious that there was something fishy going on.

However, no one is busy exposing their lies. After all, pretending to be crazy and stupid is a technical job. They make a living by their own ability, and they are not cheating their own money.

Those who were cheated were all passing merchants and kind-hearted young men and women. It was their ability to cheat people out of money, so there was no need to step in and cut off their financial resources.

Of course, the most fundamental reason is that exposing the lies will not only do no good to oneself, but will also offend a large number of beggars. There is no need to cause trouble for oneself.

In this way, the beggars in Qingping County developed a way to make money. Although they did not earn much, it was still enough to make a living.

Of course, this is a later story. Monkey Three and Fatty didn't wait until Lin Chuyi and the others came out of the inn, so they could only get up and stretch their muscles helplessly. They had to leave the city before the city gates closed, otherwise they would have to sleep on the streets.

When they lowered their heads, they both saw a lot of copper coins scattered in and around the broken bowl they used to beg.

The two were delighted by this discovery and they quickly squatted down to pick up the coins. They had not eaten for a day and when they squatted down suddenly, they felt dizzy and fell to the ground.

They didn't care about the dizziness, shook their heads, and reached out to continue groping for the copper coins on the ground.

One, two... ten... eighteen. After counting several times and making sure that there were indeed eighteen copper coins in their hands, the monkey and the fat man almost hugged each other and cried.

They originally wanted to catch a big fish, but unexpectedly they almost starved themselves to death. When they were frustrated and wanted to leave, they found an unexpected surprise. How could they not be excited?

At this moment, they no longer had any hope of waiting for Lin Chuyi and the others to come out. There was only one sentence in their minds: We are rich!

The two men put away their bowls and walked to the bun stall. The fat man counted out two copper coins and handed them to the stall owner.

"Give me two steamed buns!" The fat man couldn't help swallowing his saliva when he thought of the taste of the big white steamed buns.

The stall owner took the copper coin from the fat man's hand and put it away, then opened the steamer and a puff of hot steam came out.

Hou San saw the big round bun inside at a glance, and subconsciously licked the corners of his dry lips. Before the stall owner picked up the bun, he said, "Wait a minute!"

The stall owner was startled and looked at Hou San with a frown, not knowing what he was going to do. Seeing his greedy look, he subconsciously closed the steamer, fearing that Hou San would break the rules and snatch the food away.

Hou San watched the big, white buns being covered again before he reluctantly turned his gaze towards the stall owner.

That look was as sincere as it could be. "No steamed buns, give me two steamed buns, two big meat buns."

The stall owner looked Hou San up and down and stated the facts in a calm tone: "A bun costs two cents. You only gave two cents, which is only enough to buy one bun."

Monkey Three pushed the fat man next to him and urged, "Fatty, give me the money quickly."

Of the two of them, only the fat man has a pocket on his clothes, and all their money is with the fat man. Naturally, if they need to spend money now, they can only ask the fat man for it.

The fat man's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly. He covered his pockets tightly and said, "No, the buns are too expensive."

"I've been craving meat buns for the whole day. I feel like if I don't eat some meat, I won't be able to hold on any longer. I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat!"

Monkey Three smelled the tempting aroma emanating from the steamer from a close distance. His stomach, which had been hungry for a day, was clamoring for meat.

“But…” The fat man was still hesitating. For him, it was better to spend two cents to buy two steamed buns than to spend two cents to buy a steamed bun. Although the steamed buns had no meat, they could satisfy his hunger.

At this time, the stall owner spoke impatiently, "I say, are you going to buy or not? If not, take the two copper coins and stand aside. Don't disturb my business."

"Wait a moment."

Hou San smiled apologetically at the stall owner. He had encountered stall owners with worse attitudes before, and the one in front of him was relatively polite.
