935 A blessing in disguise
Even talking about interests and sincerity, sincerity is in the light and interests are in the dark. Beta feels that the most troublesome thing is such a negotiating opponent.
Even though you know what the other party is thinking, the other party’s reason is that it is high-sounding, and you have no way to do it.
Beta didn't want the other party's little queen to come over, so it was definitely a trouble. But the other party used twenty druids as sincerity and then threatened them without a trace. How could this little trick be broken?
Beta thought for a while, then smiled and said, "Okay, since the elves are sincere, we certainly cannot be stingy. We guarantee the safety of the little queen in Wojin City by 100%.
"Happy cooperation." Kokoyala smiled proudly.
"Happy cooperation." Beta's expression was a little helpless.
After Cocoala left, Shirley hugged Beta's shoulder from behind, pressed two balls of soft flesh on his back, and smiled and said, "This is the first time I have seen you being put on a slut. It feels quite novel. If the little queen of the Elf tribe comes and really falls in love with you again, what are you going to do?"
"You look too highly of my charm." Beta smiled and said, "I'm not a walking gold coin, everyone will like me."
"I think it's almost done," Shirley muttered, and then said, "I'll take over the twenty druids first and arrange for them to live in the south. Is there anything else to add?"
Beta thought for a while and said, "First build a cordon to separate the elves and ordinary citizens."
"Do you don't trust those elves?" Shirley was slightly surprised.
"No." Beta shook his head: "The elves have always liked a quiet and indifferent atmosphere. Our human race likes lively. The elves come to occupy a piece of land, which will definitely attract many people to watch. I am afraid that it will scare our allies and cause some unpleasant things."
"I understand." Shirley smiled and said, "Watch the Elf Clan to enter and exit freely, but the people on our side cannot go there casually."
"Yes, that's it. The twenty druids are all botanical talents. In the future, they have to rely on them to increase crop yields, teach us to identify herbs, etc. Such a great effect is also worth giving them a little privilege."
"Okay, I'll go and say to the elf envoy, and notify them in advance, so that they will not misunderstand that the warning belt is to isolate them and create unnecessary misunderstandings."
"Please trouble you."
"I'm an old husband and wife, why are you so polite?" Shirley smiled and turned away from the study.
Beta began to study the map on the desktop and used a red pen to draw on it. According to the information recently received, the Temple of Life has conducted "upper-level strategies" in countries around the world, and they are determined to win over the upper-level personnel of a country to gain greater voice.
This is indeed a good idea, but there is a saying that too much is too little. If you only form an alliance with the nobles, you will indeed have a great advantage in the early stage. However, the aristocrats are also very serious. If you don’t do it well, you have to take sides. The early investment may be in vain.
Beta believes that learning the theory of a certain library administrator is the most correct way to do it. It mainly unites the workers, peasants and merchants, and keeps away from the aristocratic groups as much as possible and does not participate in their political struggles. At most, it is to maintain a good relationship with some "progressive" aristocrats who understand the doctrine of the God of Wealth.
If the Divine Cult of Life wants to erode the upper class, let him go, and the roots of the Divine Cult of Complete Wealth are built to the vast rural areas and towns.
In big cities, the development of ordinary believers is also the main focus.
In the slum of Blue Water Harbor, a woman with an explosive figure but muddy face sat on the edge of the mud under the eaves.
The snow fell, and she was covered with snowflakes.
Two priests wearing gold-edged white robes came over each carrying a large package. While distributing black bread to the beggars who were almost hungry on the roadside, they shouted: "The God of Wealth recruits people to dig up the mines in the north. They have two copper coins a day, three meals a day, and three black bread each meal. Those who are willing to work now go to the affairs point in the north of the city to register. It takes three days, only three days."
Many beggars took black bread and hurried to the north while eating it. Some beggars who were too hungry and even were almost dead decided to finish their black bread first.
The black bread in the package of one of the priests was almost finished. When they saw the woman in the distance still, they felt a little merciful. They came over and put one of the black bread in front of the woman, and said, "Looking at how you look, you don't look like a person who has been hungry for many years. There is no hurdle in this world that cannot be overcome. If you work hard, you may have a broad sky. Our God Cult now recruits qualified girls as candidate pastors. If you are interested, you can try it."
This pastor has been at the bottom of the city to help civilians in recent years and has accumulated a lot of experience. Although the woman in front of him is dirty, she has a good figure. Only those who don’t have to worry about food and drink will have such a figure.
How could ordinary beggars and poor people grow up as thick as fat?
"Thanks."
The woman grabbed the black bread, put it in her mouth, and chewed it slowly. She looked very unenergetic and unmoved.
The priest shook his head and left.
Most of the beggars went to the north to help the God of Wealth to do short-term work in exchange for some food, and most of the beggars could survive the cold winter because of this.
In recent years, the Temple of Wealth has taken such measures every winter. Even if there is no reason, they will make up one to let the poor and beggars work.
For example, go to the woods to cut down a large amount of wood, build many houses outside the city, allowing the poor and beggars to move in. Build all the irrelevant soil pits on the roadside, clean up the streets of the city, or clear the sewers.
In short, the God of Wealth is to give people food to work.
But beggars and civilians also had a choice, thinking that this was normal. On the contrary, the kind-hearted nobles donated porridge and free bread, which seemed less useful to beggars and poor people.
After taking the porridge and bread, the poor turned around and spat, and then ate the bread.
Due to the efforts of the God of Wealth, there are now many fewer beggars and homeless poor people in various cities across Holeven.
But this world is too cruel. New beggars and poor people appear at any time. There will never be enough "poverty alleviation" and we can only do our best.
Unless the system changes, this matter will not be possible in the short term. Even players like Beta who believe in my orders and do not dare to think about it casually.
The woman slowly ate black bread, and ate one black bread for at least an hour. Then she stood up and left the slum.
She was very slow, but her steps were steady.
She walked through the alleys, through the streets, and came to the beach.
Blue Water Port is a non-freezing port. Even in the cold winter, the sea water still slams the coast and the water temperature is quite high.
On the beach, it is obviously warmer than in the city.
The docks of the harbor are still in full swing. The most lively place in the whole city is here. The dock workers who load the goods shouted loudly and pulled the goods one by one to unload them from the ship.
With the short makeup of the strong men, they could see the wisps of sweat flowing down their shiny and dark skin.
There are also travelers with different identities on the caravan that get off the boat.
Gentleman, civilian, noble lady, and even beautiful lucky cats.
The woman walked to the wooden bridge at the pier and looked up. It was blue below, and there was no bottom, and the waves were surging.
She was out of place with the people around her, so many people noticed her as soon as they arrived here.
Someone was afraid that she would fall, so he shouted a few times from afar.
But she turned her head and smiled on her face covered in mud, smiling happily and calmly.
Then spread your arms, fly like a bird, and then fall into the sea.
Just a sound of thud was heard, and the whole person disappeared.
Some elegant women screamed.
Several enthusiastic sailors also jumped down and dived into the sea, but soon they floated up and shook their heads at the people around them.
Many people were amazed, but more people were not moved at all.
In this world, it is difficult for even oneself to survive, so why bother with other people's business? They live and die if they love to die. The ocean is not stamped, and they jump as soon as they want to, and no one stops them.
It is because of the recent efforts of the God of Wealth that they feel that their lives have improved, but this is far from enough.
The girl who fell into the sea did not drown as others thought, but swam like a fish. She sank to a depth that normal people could not reach. On the dim bottom of the sea, she found a trench and swam in.
The trench kept going upwards. She swam for nearly ten minutes before light appeared. Then she finally found herself swimming into the hollow of a mountain under the sea.
There is air here, a piece of dry land, and a shallow pool connected to the seabed outside. At the bottom of the pool, there is a kind of glowing seaweed that generates light sources, attracting some small fish to swim from the trench, and a kind of long-leafed seaweed that will produce several bubbles to float up from time to time.
She climbed up from the pool, and the mud on her face had been washed away, revealing a pretty beautiful girlish face.
It's Frey.
Dragging his tired body, Frey came to the middle of the land. Here there was a cowhide tent, an iron pot, a straw mat, and a quilt.
This is her secret base. After she found this place at the age of eight, she would come here to visit from time to time. Occasionally, she stayed alone at the bottom of the sea for a day away from the secular troubles. She was the only one in the small world, which would give her a kind of tranquility happiness.
But she hasn't been here for five years since her body was occupied by her ancestors.
Because it is the bottom of the sea itself, there will be no dust here, but because of the heavy humidity, the quilt is rotten and there is a smell of mold.
She didn't care, pulled the quilt and covered her body, hid in the smelly quilt, and burst into tears.
I cried very wronged, very wronged.
She fell asleep when she woke up and continued to cry. She cried so hard that her eyes became peaches. She cried so hard that her tears couldn't even shed tears. After she came out of the quilt, she walked to the pool, reached out and grabbed the fish as big as a palm, took off her head, and started eating.
As she ate, her eyes flowed out again.
But this time, her face was smiling.
