Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Seeing that Gu Chan and the others admitted their mistakes, the bald dog's expression eased a little.

Gu Chan was of course also very capable. She quickly reached out and picked up the more than 100 copper coins in front of her, put them all into the bowl in front of him and said, "Grandpa, this is our gift to you. We are new here and don't know the rules. Thank you for your reminder and help."

"Oh! The little brat is quite capable!" said the scabby dog ​​with a laugh.

"Of course. We used to be so poor that we had no food to eat. We have experienced many ups and downs along the way, so we naturally know how to survive." Gu Chan said with a smile.

The mangy dog ​​nodded without comment.

He grabbed all the copper coins in the bowl and put them in his arms. He stared at the two men and said, "That's it. From now on, you are allowed to beg on East Street, but remember, each of you must pay me five copper coins every day. That way, no one will bully you."

"Then what about taking us to meet the gang leader and getting naturalized citizenship?" Gu Chan said.

"No rush, how long have you been here? Pay for half a month first. Of course, it also depends on your performance. The more money you ask for and the more money you pay, the faster I will take you to see the gang leader." said the scabby dog.

After saying that, he stood up and prepared to leave.

Gu Chan stretched out her hand to hold him and said, "Why, you don't want to learn the clapper talk anymore?"

"I'm not in a hurry! You'll have plenty of time to teach me later." The scabby dog ​​said in an arrogant manner.

Then he walked away with a chuckle.

Ma Zheng put his mouth close to Gu Chan's ear and whispered, "Boss, it seems that his purpose in coming to us is to collect money. Learning clapper talk is just an excuse."

"It's okay. Let's make the best of it and take it slow. We can't be impatient about this kind of thing. If we want to infiltrate the Beggars' Sect here in the future, we have to be patient." Gu Chan said calmly.

Ma Zheng nodded quietly.

After that, the two of them didn't say anything more, but continued to sit there, begging for rewards by performing their talents.

The mangy dog ​​hid in a nearby alley and observed secretly.

There was another younger beggar standing next to him, whispering in his ear, "Boss, these two little brats suddenly appeared, and I don't know where they came from. Judging from their accents, they sound like people from the northern part of Tiancang Country."

"Wasn't there a war on the border some time ago? It is very likely that they fled here from the border. And that little kid who looks quite delicate is also very capable. I'm afraid they must have suffered a lot on the way here." The scabby dog ​​said in a deep voice.

"What should we do? Should we report to the gang leader now?" asked the beggar.

The scabby dog ​​shook his head. "No hurry. Let's observe them for a while first. I'm afraid they are spies from other gangs, sent here to spy on the Beggars' Gang."

"That's true. After all, during this period of time, many gangs in the Jiangnan area have been eyeing the fat piece of meat of our Beggars' Gang!" The beggar nodded repeatedly.

The mangy dog's expression also became serious.

After instructing the beggar to secretly keep an eye on Gu Chan and the other two, he turned and left.

Let’s talk about Gu Chan and the other one.

After sitting on the street for a whole day and performing their talents for a whole day, by dusk, the two of them had collected less than five taels of silver in total.

Ma Zheng looked at the pile of copper coins in front of him and suddenly felt neither amused nor helpless.

Ever since he started making money with Gu Chan, he has never worried about money. But today, after experiencing the daily life of a beggar, he realized that begging on the street is really not easy.

Seeing his melancholy look, Gu Chan couldn't help but smile and said, "What's wrong?"

"Boss, now I understand how difficult it was for you in the past. Since I followed you, I felt that making money was easy. But today made me feel that making money is quite difficult." Ma Zheng sighed.

"Okay, the money you earn varies depending on the industry you're in. This is what they say, it's hard for people to earn money beyond their own understanding." Gu Chan said, patting Ma Zheng's shoulder.

Ma Zheng was confused and really didn't quite understand the meaning of her words.

Gu Chan didn't explain much, and said, "Let's go! Let's find a place to stay. We have to pretend to be well-prepared. There are people watching us in the alley over there!"

"Are they from the Leggy Dog faction?" Ma Zheng said in surprise.

Gu Chan nodded and said, "Of course, who else could it be besides him? That person has been secretly watching us at the alley entrance for a whole day."

"Damn! Isn't it just being a beggar? Why is there so much trouble?" Ma Zheng said angrily.

"The roc has its own troubles, and the sparrow has its own sufferings. Maybe the Beggars' Sect is in trouble right now! Otherwise, how could they be so vigilant?" Gu Chan said with a faint smile.

After hearing what she said, Ma Zheng tactfully shut his mouth.

Then the two of them quieted down, put away the copper coins, went to buy some steamed buns, and walked towards the depths of East Street.

The mangy beggar who was sent to keep an eye on them was also following them secretly.

After dark, Gu Chan and the others found a relatively remote and dilapidated temple deep in East Street and moved in.

Because someone had died in this dilapidated temple in the past, all the beggars in the East Street area usually didn't dare to live here. This actually came in handy for Gu Chan and the other two, as it became their hidden shelter.

The beggar followed behind and when he saw the two men enter the dilapidated temple, he ran away in panic.

After Gu Chan used her spiritual energy to sense that he had run away, she took Ma Zheng and climbed over the back wall, returning to Wanyuanfang.

In this way, the scabby dog ​​would think that they were indeed two little beggars from other places, who could not find a place to live, so they had to live in this dilapidated temple on East Street that everyone was afraid of.

Half an hour later.

Gu Chan and the other person returned to the guest room on the third floor of Wanyuanfang.

They each went back to their rooms to wash up, changed into clean clothes, and then went to the lobby on the third floor to order a table of good wine and food and started to eat.

When they were eating, Wan Peng came over and sat down, looked at them and said, "How is it, is it easy to be a beggar?"

"Fortunately, I earned a few taels of silver today, so I have enough money for dinner." Gu Chan said with a smile.

"I really don't understand why you have to do this. You don't look like people who are short of money. Why do you have to work so hard as beggars just to save a little bit of tax?" Wan Peng said puzzled.

Gu Chan said while eating, "Young Master, you don't understand this. Saving taxes is one thing, and the other thing is that some things that you can't hear from your mouths can be heard from the beggars."

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk anymore. Let me tell you something else! I've asked my sister to change the appointment for tomorrow. Tomorrow morning, you will come with me to Wanyue Tower. My sister has already booked the rooms." Wan Peng said.

Gu Chan shook her head. "That won't work. We still have to beg tomorrow, and we won't be free during the day for a long time. We will only be free at night."

"Ah? Are you crazy?" Wan Peng said in surprise.

He originally thought that Gu Chan just had a whim and wanted to experience the life of a beggar for a day, but he didn't expect that Gu Chan was addicted to being a beggar!
