After leaving Fangshi, more people from other cities appeared on the streets.

Some gathered in front of some shops to beg for food, while others leaned aside to rest.

Nan Xing knelt down and handed a few spiritual stones to the begging woman.

When the woman saw someone giving her a spiritual stone, she was very excited. She quickly kowtowed and thanked him, and then a three or four-year-old child was revealed from the corner of her tattered robe.

"Thank you! Thank you! I wish you good luck!"

The child was so hungry that he was skin and bones. Watching his mother kowtow, he also kowtowed.

Nan Xing quickly helped the person up.

Hua Ci took out some pastries from the storage bag and handed them to the child, who immediately devoured them.

"Thank you! You are such a good person!"

"Didn't you say that the king has prepared a temporary residence on the outskirts of the city?"

Asked this, the woman's eyes immediately shed tears of grievance.

"The temporary residence has limited space, and it has been taken up by the young and strong. Orphans and widows like me have no choice but to go to this city to beg for food."

Li Fei sighed silently after hearing this.

"When the city is about to be moved, the wealthy families in those cities have already bought new houses in other cities, and the remaining ordinary people have to fight for those temporary residences."

"How can this work!"

Nan Xing looked around and saw that most of the beggars were old, weak, sick and disabled, but just like that, the cake in the child's hand was almost snatched away by a bigger child next to him.

If these people cannot be resettled, they may have to fend for themselves when the weather gets colder.

"Lords of nobles, can you take in this little kid of mine? The one in my family had very good physical strength when he was alive. It was no accident. When this kid grows up, he will definitely be a good worker. Just take him in. Give him a mouthful of food and he will be obedient and work!"

The woman knelt down and begged several people again, just for a way to survive for her child.

"Please!"

The woman's face was full of tears, and there was blood on her forehead.

Chen Qiu immediately helped the person up.

"This child still has some spiritual roots. Do you, the Li family, want him?"

As Chen Qiu said this, he picked up the child and walked to Li Fei.

The child watched his mother cry and started crying too.

Li Fei saw that although the child was already thin and weak, his eyes were very bright and his bones were good.

Then he took the child from Chen Qiu's arms.

When the woman saw that her child had a way out, she immediately knelt down in front of Li Fei and kowtowed in thanks.

"Thank you! Good things come to you! Please take good care of him in the future! If he is ignorant and makes mistakes, you can punish him, but please keep him alive. This child has had a hard life since he was a child. I hope he can live longer. Year."

The woman had already burst into tears as she spoke. She might be grateful that the child was alive, she might be sad about the separation, or she might be helpless about the fate of herself and her child.

The woman looked at the child in Li Fei's arms with reluctance, but she had no choice. If she followed her, she might starve to death in a short time.

The child seemed to realize that he was about to be separated from his mother, and immediately burst into tears.

Unlike his mother who was sobbing softly, this child was crying loudly, tearing the emotions of everyone present.

Li Fei's eyes were also slightly red.

"You can also follow me to Li's house, and I'll find a rough job for you then, so that mother...daughter won't be separated."

Li Fei handed the child back to the woman.

The woman paused for a moment, and realized when she saw that her child had stopped crying. Along the way, I took my little girl with me and tried to give my child to other families, just to have food to eat.

But after they found out it was a girl, they all refused.

But some people knew that the girl had evil intentions, so the woman tried her best to escape.

Therefore, after seeing the kind people like Hua Ci, he once again hoped that his child could be taken in, but he was afraid that Li Fei, like others, would dislike his child being a girl, so he hinted at the beginning that it was a boy and capable. live.

After being exposed, he couldn't hide his tears of grievance. He was afraid that Li Fei would regret it, so he quickly added:

"Although she is a girl, she can still work! I can also work!"

"It doesn't matter. We take her in so that she can practice. Both men and women are welcome. You don't have to hide it deliberately."

The woman wanted to kowtow to thank her again, but Chen Qiu stopped her.

The woman cried with joy, but she just buried her face in the arms of the child she was holding.

There are too many beggars like this on the street.

Seeing the woman follow Li Fei to Li's house, the three of them sighed and returned to the inn.

The inn was still the same as before, warm and comfortable, without any hunger or tears.

"Junior sister Hua Ci, are you back?"

Stepping into the inn, Su Ruanruan came face to face.

"Yeah, I just went out for a walk."

"Junior Sister Hua Ci, thanks to you telling me that Beichen wanted to put forward more conditions, I also added some."

Su Ruanruan was very satisfied.

After all, the two countries have similar things to do, so the conditions for negotiation should be similar.

If Beichen wants more, Dongli will naturally be able to offer more conditions.

Of course, if we can accurately know the specific amount of Beichen's money, we will have more initiative.

"Senior Sister Su, is Dongli going to move to the city and set up a formation too?"

Hua Ci asked.

"Yeah, just let those people live in another place. They may not be comfortable with it at first, but they will get used to it gradually. Just like when I moved from Dongli to Lingwufeng, I didn't adapt to it at first, but it got better later."

Su Ruanruan answered with a smile.

"Can it be the same? There are people taking care of you wherever you go. Can't you see those people who have moved from other places on the street?"

Su Ruanruan thought that his cultivation at Lingwu Peak was as simple as those ordinary people moving to the city. Nan Xing was so angry that he clenched his fists and retorted.

"Oh, that's all the people below have to deal with, why do we care so much?"

Su Ruanruan still kept smiling and didn't think it was a big deal.

Seeing that the three of them were silent, he took out three tokens from his storage bag.

"This is the pass token for the formation ceremony. Although the formation is open to the public and can be seen by those people, with this token you can go to the venue to witness it. If you are okay, you can come and take a look."

After Su Ruanruan finished speaking, he left lightly.

Getting more resources is the biggest thing. As for the other things, she doesn't care.

After giving the order, Hua Ci returned to the room and received the news from Wen Dao.

[Wen Dao: How was the investigation? I should be able to get there soon. ]
  [Hua Ci: It was probably Luo Niang who negotiated terms for the mysterious envoy that night, and the mysterious envoy should have appeared only when he set up a large formation. ]
  [Wen Dao: Okay, we must find out that person when the time comes. ]
  [Hua Ci: If they want to occupy the snowfields of the North, it might not be as simple as just setting up a large formation in the future, right? ]
  [Wen Dao: One formation will definitely not work, and the formation will definitely be expanded in the future to ensure that it is foolproof. ]
  [Hua Ci: Haha, that will make more people homeless. ]
  [Wen Dao: Yes. ]
  [Hua Ci: Those who can enjoy the benefits of this peace negotiation don’t have to worry about having a fixed place to live. They can use the allocated resources to find a more suitable place. Those who do not get a share of the benefits will suffer from displacement and even death. ]
