The young man's eloquence was very good, which made Ada, a guy who was more used to using force to solve problems or be solved, speechless.

He went on to say: "Look at this spacious hall, how many people can be accommodated to rest, and what can be lost by admitting some people in for warmth?"

Ada understood that this was the real purpose of the young man.

He wants to come in.

But Ada couldn't do that.

Once you enter the hall, you can find everything you eat and drink here.

Then the hall is full of people sleeping, what about the kitchen, the hallway, and even... the bedroom?

Her family is full of girls.

Never do this!

Seeing that Ada didn't respond and couldn't be restrained by morality at all, the young man shook his head slightly, looked at the refugees outside the yard, and said his second plan:

"Do you know that when I saw this kind of selfish behavior just now, I went to the local guards angrily, and they also expressed strong indignation! But now that the disaster is imminent, they are weak, so they let me go to the local area to find A lady named Ada said that she is highly respected and can uphold justice."

He cleared his throat, raised his hands, and shouted loudly: "Now, Ms. Ada, please stand up, where are you? We all listen to you!"

cried the young man, a smile on his lips.

He has confidence in his eloquence, and it is much easier to persuade an outsider than the owner of this big house.

But after shouting for a long time, no one answered. Could it be that the lady named Ada is not around here?

This is hard to do.

The young man frowned, turned around, only to find that the white-haired girl was raising her hands, looking at him with a strange expression: "Here, my name is Ada."

……

The two sides were silent for a while.

"Hmm..." The young man pondered for a moment, then shook his head resolutely and said in disbelief, "No, it must be fake."

As soon as the words were finished, a familiar voice suddenly sounded from the street in the distance: "Miss Ada! Miss Ada! There is great news! Why are there so many people gathered together? Let them all disperse, and if they gather here again, I will arrest people! Your Majesty has ordered the establishment of a porridge shop, and the nearest one is in the small square in front, what are you still huddling around here for?"

The person who came was the local security team leader, Indigo Chin.

No. 198. No. 6, Chimera Street

Porridge shop!I can eat!

Upon hearing this news, the people gathered at the head of the Chimera disappeared in a swarm.

Including the young man who wanted to live in earlier.

Nothing is more important than filling your belly right now.

The goldsmith who was guarding the entrance of the tavern moved the tables and chairs, and put the indigo inside.

Panting, he stuffed a bulging bag into Ada's hand, and introduced: "This is your family's compensation, which is a thousand kroner, and I sent it right away."

Originally, this task could be handed over to his subordinates, but he didn't want to let go of even the slightest chance to show his favor, so he came over abruptly to grab the lead.

"Compensation money?" Shenying was stunned for a moment: "Our tavern has not been damaged, so let's leave this money to those who need help."

"How do you talk!"

Ada immediately interrupted the elf's selfless behavior, pointing to the wreckage of the two chairs that Brando had sat on in the corner: "Isn't that a loss!"

If you are not in charge, you don't know that rice is expensive. One thousand kroner is enough to buy many comic books.

That's food for the mind, especially the one that sees the essence through the phenomenon, it's a good thing that can make one's body and mind develop in an all-round way.

Seeing that his disguised bribe was accepted, Indigo clapped his hands and laughed: "Miss Deep Shadow is really kind, but don't worry, every household will be compensated up to one thousand kroner according to the degree of damage. It is His Majesty's will."

"Giving so much?" Ada was only a little surprised by the amount of compensation, but not curious about how much she could get.

At least a few thousand households were affected by the disaster in the entire harbor area this time. Even in her street, the two Moors charged from both ends of the street, crashing and destroying seven or eight houses one after another within a dozen breaths.

Each family made up one thousand, at least a few million more. It was unexpected that so much money could be taken out of the kingdom's treasury.

"Of course not." Indigo Chi denied the girl's guess, leaned forward slightly, and revealed in a low voice, "Only our street has this amount of compensation and comfort, and people in other places... are far behind! "

Ada understood.

This is another trouble caused by his own identity.

However, this is considered a good thing for the neighbors, right?

But I heard Indigo continue to say: "Gossip, the compensation funds are issued this time to appease the victims of the disaster and prevent them from causing chaos. For these funds, His Majesty not only spent the last money in the treasury, but also sent money to the city. The rich merchants here have borrowed a lot."

"Indeed, Stonetalon Mountain's move is simply a conspiracy. If they don't appease the victims, they will start rioting to make a living. To appease the victims, the kingdom will lose even its military expenses."

Ada nodded thoughtfully.

Not only that, but the timing of their card was just right, just before the frost, so that these people still had hope of being rescued.

Otherwise, once the weather freezes, after a night of tossing, most of the refugees will not need to be rescued, and on the contrary, it will arouse the common hatred of the people of Baigang.

Then Ada immediately thought of a question. She looked at Indigo Chin and raised her eyebrows nervously: "Okay, you can find out this kind of gossip. It seems that you still have some connections?"

This kind of thing can only be known so quickly by someone in the palace.

"It's all thanks to you." Indigo smiled heartily, then puffed up her chest, and patted the brand new medal on it.

"What's the matter?" Ada didn't understand, so she said, "You are exercising, so your chest muscles are well developed?"

She scratched her head, then unconsciously glanced at Deep Shadow.

Deep Shadow felt insulted: "You are fine and see what I do!!"

The elf clenched his fists and hit his friend head and face.

Goldsmith looked at the flammable and explosive elf, who would explode at a touch, and shook his head slightly.

This is definitely not a forest elf. Even if they live under the same roof as Ada, a very traditional forest elf can never become so violent!

But he didn't know that just a few months ago, Shen Ying was a good elf who was knowledgeable, respectful, respectful and polite.

Indigo wiped the brand new medal, and showed it to the second daughter again: "Thanks to you, I was promoted, and all my former colleagues came to visit again, and I got a little news by the way."

He followed Ada this trip, and not only captured a stonetalon mountain killer alive, but also dug out an insider who was hidden in the kingdom's management. At night, it can be regarded as a big highlight.

However, His Majesty did not know why, so he only promoted him a little bit, and his position did not change.

But it hasn't changed for the better. Indigo Chin prefers this way, so that he can tighten Ada's thigh more quickly and conveniently.

At the same time, because he was promoted just two months after being demoted, this speed was unheard of, making one wonder if he really had some talent?

In line with the principle of killing the wrong and not letting the wrong go, before the night of the invasion was completely subsided, the former colleagues who got the news all 'dropped in' to visit him at the outpost, and all confessed that they hadn't visited a while ago It's because I'm too busy.

But after receiving the order from the palace and hearing the secrets in the palace mentioned by the former colleagues, Indigo left the group of colleagues who wanted to congratulate for a while, and happily took the money and went straight to Chimera. come first.

Only when you come out on top is it called flattering.

The ones behind can only pat the horse's legs.

Like the town guard knocking on the door right now.

After opening a crack in the door, a business-like face appeared outside.

The guard took a piece of paper and briefly checked it, and then said in a flat and fast voice: "No. 6 Chimera Street, the head of Chimera, has not been damaged, and a symbolic 50 kroner comfort money is given, please sign here. "

He turned the list around, handed over a pen, and pointed to the corner of the list.

Ada wrote her name crookedly in extremely cruel handwriting, and received a banknote from the guard.

No matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat, just like Deep Shadow's chest. Although it looks useless, it can still be used as a sandbag.

"But... wait..." Ada found the blind spot: "Chimera Street? What's the name?"

There is no such fresh, refined and tasteful name here, not even a name.

It used to be called Poor Street [-]st, [-]nd, [-]rd... that's all.

The guard pointed to the destroyed house next to him, and said solemnly: "I just received the notice. The palace thinks that since we are in the center of the harbor area, we should have some characteristics, and we just took advantage of this rebuilding opportunity to look brand new, so A name was bestowed by some great person, and it just happened to correspond to the name of the lady's tavern, what a coincidence!"

"Yes, yes, what a coincidence..." Ada answered with some kidney pain, pinching her teeth.

She didn't know that this was nothing but a moth against her in the palace.

Really, even if they are a group of politicians in the face of a disaster, while dealing with the problem, they will also send some thoughtful benefits along the way.

Do you think she will like it here?No!

Even though she was thinking this way, one corner of Ada's mouth was already raised, and her lips were pursed at a slanted angle, revealing a wicked and cool smile.

The guard was attracted by the girl's smile, his eyes straightened, and then he happened to see Indigo standing behind the girl.

"Hey, sir, why are you here too!?"

He was a little surprised.

Indigo Chin's face was livid, feeling that half of the limelight he had gained was blown away by the guard.

I took out 1000 crowns from my private money and sent it over in real money!Why not be as good as others with a few words!

It's so annoying, I will transfer this guard to the countryside tomorrow.

Chapter 199. The Orphan of the Harelip

A mere thousand kroner is only a drop in the bucket for rebuilding houses, let alone people in other areas.

However, with the addition of free soup kitchens and the friendly assistance of the town guards, a possible riot was finally suppressed.

The winter in Baigang is not too cold, the lowest is ten degrees below zero. As long as a simple windproof hut can be built with stones and leather cloth, and supplemented with quilts, it can still survive.

However, the status quo is still grim.

After the attack, soldiers were patrolling the streets, and guards were going from house to house to investigate one by one. The whole city of White Harbor was filled with tension.

Advocates of conspiracy theories, or paid orators, began to stand on the streets, declaring that the tribes of the orcs are crossing the Dragon's Back Mountains from the north, or that the four provinces of Jianjue are experiencing civil strife, and Stonetalon Mountain has been destroyed. Rumors of a declaration of war on the royal family.

Although they were quickly arrested and taken away by the guards, they still inevitably cast a shadow in people's hearts.

Priests and priests from various temples stood at the fork in the road one after another to appease the mood of the neighborhood, and performed miracles with magic to win over believers.

Rogues began to gather, civilians hid in their homes and prayed, and almost all merchants closed their doors and hesitated to sell.

Chimera Chief is one of the few businesses in White Harbor that are still open.

It's just that everyone came here, not for the lemonade and potatoes - His Majesty has given everyone a lot of cash, enough for them not to go hungry for a while.

There is an elf with amazing combat power, a little girl with extremely high talent for healing spells, and a boss lady who is extremely stingy.

Such a combination, and even more high-end business places than this combination, there are quite a few in the huge White Harbor.

It's just that in those places, [-]% of them are not affordable for these poor people, and the remaining [-]% will not be treated well by them.

But the leader of Chimera is different. Except for the proprietress who is a little difficult to serve, the other two are very approachable.

Even the proprietress, when you take out a coin and shake it in front of her eyes, you can immediately get incredible care-don't say make her laugh, as long as the money is in place, even if you die.

After 'Long Night', such news was quickly spread.

The streets of Chimera are almost overcrowded, and there are tents everywhere on the street.

Many people's residences collapsed, and while waiting for the guards to assist in building simple houses on the original site, they would choose to stay here for a while.

For no other reason, this street has the most people and is the most convenient for begging.

Chimera Head was overcrowded. After paying the payment, an old woman got her wish and watched the rumored little red-haired girl walk over with baked potatoes.

"Hey, little girl, grandma is scratched here, can you help me treat it?"

The old woman put the potatoes aside, without looking at them, rolled up her sleeves, revealing a carelessly bandaged arm.

There is a wound across the left arm, the wound is no longer bleeding, and there are signs of decay around it, obviously it has been a long time.

Triss poked the wound carefully with her finger, seeing pus and blood oozing from it, the old woman didn't even frown.

"Doesn't it hurt? It's already infected, please wait a moment..." The girl rubbed her palms together and solemnly recited the mantra.

This kind of wound already needs to be taken seriously.

The old woman moved her arms forward, with a look of expectation on her face.

But just as Triss started her spell, she was interrupted by a nasty and clear voice: "What are you doing! Have you paid me, Triss, come here!"
