They say that when a building collapses, the world is turned upside down. In fact, the situation does not deteriorate from peace to the point where people can no longer survive.

The development of worldly affairs is bit by bit, bit by bit, slow and unstoppable, as if there is an invisible hand pushing behind it.

Being in the middle of the situation and not knowing the situation, when many people finally discovered to their shock that the world was in ruins, the situation was actually corrupted and no one could turn the tide.

There is not much time left for yourself.

If you can't get the key to the temple and leave here, you have to be prepared to survive in troubled times.

What Huang Xiaoshi said to Fang Yunhua that day was all the truth from the bottom of his heart.

As long as you can return to your own world, even if you don't have hundreds of millions of wealth, it will be a peaceful world with extremely abundant material resources, and even dogs will live with more dignity than the people here.

After sighing, Huang Xiaoshi nodded, and said to Xiao Yao: "I will take over what Brother Xiao has asked me to do."

Xiao Yao stood up and saluted Huang Xiaoshi, then turned and left.

After walking out of the Shennong Baicao Gate, Xiao Yao returned to the outside of the beggar's shack and hid in the dark until he saw Huang Xiaoshi leading several disciples into the smelly shack and raising a string of small beggars like catching mice.

Son.

After everyone dispersed, Xiao Yaofang emerged from the darkness. He knelt down in the direction of Shennong Baicao Gate and kowtowed three times.

Xiao Yao then stood up and followed the last wave of people out of Luoyang City while the city gate was not yet closed.

…

In the hall of Shennong Baicao Gate, more than twenty children were standing in several rows, waiting nervously for Huang Xiaoshi's announcement.

After these little beggars were captured, Wang Pingzui, who used to be a knife maker (pig groomer), came over with a sharp butcher's knife.

Wang Flatmouth first caught the frightened babies, then pushed them to the ground, then stripped off their clothes and shaved their heads, and finally threw them all into a bucket of hot water filled with medicine.

After soaking once, washing twice, and flushing three times, after finally getting clean, there was someone nearby to check the health of these little beggars.

Finally, there was a big pot of stewed and heated rice. The children who were full after eating finally gradually lost their panic, and then they were sent to the hall.

Huang Xiaoshi listened to Lao Zhang's report. There were twenty-five beggars in total, including eight boys and seventeen girls.

Among these twenty-five children, the youngest is a girl named Lihua who is only five years old, and the oldest is twelve years old and is named Si Zhu.

What makes Lao Zhang feel troublesome and embarrassed is that all these little beggars are disabled people.

Because it is easier for disabled people to win sympathy, and children with disabled bodies can win more sympathy, so each of these little beggars has varying degrees of disability, from disfigurement, broken hands to broken legs.

The most severely disabled person was the little girl named Lihua.

"What a sin, what a sin!" Lao Zhang sighed and kept shaking his head.

Huang Xiaoshi has no experience in dealing with this kind of thing.

But since it was entrusted by Xiao Yao, and since he agreed so readily, he must be the only one responsible to the end.

After Huang Xiaoshi stood up, he said to these beggars: "My name is Huang Xiaoshi, and I am the sect master here.

I was also born as a beggar, so I know the suffering of beggars.

Nothing else, I think it would actually be better for you to die early and be reincarnated early.

This world is not worth your nostalgia."

When Huang Xiaoshi said this, the other disciples standing in the hall felt a little embarrassed.

Huang Xiaoshi is telling the truth.

Looking at this large number of beggars, Huang Xiaoshi felt that his life was really good.

If he were "reincarnated" into such a mutilated body, or if he didn't meet Gong Guangjie but met Paihuazi first, then his life would really be worse than death.

Oh, no way.

If Gong Guangjie hadn't appeared at that time, Huang Xiaoshi would have killed himself.

In this world, life is not easy for everyone. It is only after joining the Shennong Baicao Sect that life becomes easier.

It is not an easy task for capable people with sound hands and feet to really live a good life.

And these beggars are all disabled.

Not to mention how to grow up, even if they grow up, they may not be of much use. There will be more hardships waiting for them in the future.

For them, life has long lost its sweetness, and all that remains is bitterness, and more bitterness.

Xiao Yao grew up in a beggar gang. Although he was taken care of by the gang leader, he also knew how cruel the real life of a beggar was.

Even Xiao Yao now often goes hungry because he can't get food.

If you don't want to go hungry, you have to exploit other weaker beggars.

Many beggars not only have enough food and clothing, but also wear gold and silver. However, every bit of wealth they possess is squeezed out of the beggars by throwing them into a millstone of flesh and blood.

The evil of the beggar's head is too numerous to describe.

The main function of the beggar gang is to restrain these beggars, so that they don't do too many evil things, don't do things too cruelly, and find ways to make more beggars live longer.

However, even if there is no beggar head, how long can an ordinary beggar live?

So Xiao Yao bit the bullet and came to Huang Xiaoshi, hoping to give these little beggars a way to live, a real way to live.

…

"Lao Zhang. We have a branch in Luoyang. How much money can we get from a share of red every year?" Huang Xiaoshi asked Lao Zhang.

Lao Zhang opened his mouth and said without even thinking: "The dividend at the end of last year was 482 yuan."

"So much?" Huang Xiaoshi was stunned for a moment. Has inflation reached this level?

"How much does it cost to raise a child per year? Is two thousand enough?" Huang Xiaoshi asked Lao Zhang and others.

When Huang Xiaoshi asked, everyone spoke one after another. Some said it was enough, some said it was not enough. Huang Xiaoshi listened and said more.

"Okay, that's it." Huang Xiaoshi said to Lao Zhang, "Pull out some dry shares from my stock (only dividends), give four shares to each child, and then take away whoever you like.

It doesn't matter whether you are an adopted son, an apprentice, a child bride, or a self-supporting wife.

Whoever accepts it will get the dividends from the shares, and will raise them until the child dies, and then I will withdraw the shares.

We agreed in advance, first come first served, once purchased, no returns."

When Huang Xiaoshi said this, everyone in the hall burst into laughter.

"Okay, let's start choosing." Huang Xiaoshi said this, and the disciples rushed to grab the child.

The question of whether two thousand dollars is enough to raise a child is like asking a college student whether two thousand dollars a month is enough for living expenses.

There are definitely some college students who say enough, and some who say not enough.

But if it is the parents who make mandatory budgets and expenditures, the money will definitely be enough. Not only is it enough, but there is also a surplus.

In the end, all the children were robbed, except for the pear blossom whose lower limbs were missing.

"Look at you, you are too picky. You have picked out all the good ones, leaving me with this top one." Huang Xiaoshi teased rudely at the disciples who had snatched the children, and then he turned around and looked at "Last night's meal"

Old Xu fell down when he was drunk, and then said: "Old Xu, you are going back to Shuzhong. Otherwise, will you accept this well-behaved girl?"

When Lao Xu heard this, he hurriedly took a few steps out to pick up Lihua, nodded and bowed to Huang Xiaoshi, and said: "I have four sons at home, and I just need a daughter. I will take this daughter in. From now on, I am her father."

, if I have a bite to eat, I will never treat this child badly."

Seeing Lao Xu like this, the uninformed disciples burst into laughter.

Outside the Shennong Baicao Gate, which was full of laughter, there were countless beggars clinging to each other to keep warm and resist the severe cold in early spring.

People's joys and sorrows are not connected.
