Chapter 1180 Iluli and the Orphans
For an adult, destroying the dream of a naughty child may be something that many people have thought about.
After all, naughty kids are so annoying.
Now, what Tang En is trying to do is to make these naughty children give up their unrealistic fantasies and grow into talents who are useful to society.
I am helping them get back on the right path, and I am doing a good deed!
I am indeed a kind and good person...
Tang En, who was holding Olina and Iluli's little hands, had a look of emotion on his face. Behind him were the eyes of a pair of boys and girls full of hostility.
Girl?
There's nothing wrong with it, Iluli's charm can kill both men and women! It's surprising these little brats can handle it.
The boys dream of marrying Iluli, while the girls look forward to the noble and elegant saint and want to become a woman like her. Although these boys and girls are all orphans worthy of sympathy, the orphans here are not It must all be caused by the war and not Tang En's responsibility. There is no need for him to bear any burden.
In Purandal, dangerous monsters, adventurers who like to take risks in pursuit of huge profits, bandits and bandits, etc., will cause a large number of orphans to appear. However, most of the orphans in Yalinx come from bar girls and prostitutes. An unexpected product, there are also many street children from other places.
These street children have always been a headache for kings throughout the ages. They have wanted to solve the livelihood problems of these street children more than once, and the Holy See of Light has also very considerately established a charity to adopt these street children.
But just adoption is not enough. The scale of street children is huge. Every mouth needs food. Once the number increases, the consumption of funds is very scary. Even the continuous investment of funds by the Holy See of Light is not enough, not to mention that they will grow longer. Big, these orphans can't continue to rely on the Holy See of Light when they grow up, right?
Except for those orphans with potential who can enter the Holy See and become Templar Knights or Holy See Sisters when they grow up, which can be regarded as giving back to the Holy See for its nurturing grace, those orphans who are generally talented and can only become ordinary people have absolutely no choice.
If they were just raised, they would not even have the ability to survive in this world. Therefore, the previous popes had new ideas. While raising them, they also taught them the basic abilities to survive in this world. , such as logging, becoming an apprentice to a carpenter and then becoming a carpenter, collecting wild vegetables, helping the chef with chores, learning cooking skills to become a chef, raising poultry, learning to farm, becoming a farmer in the future, etc. In this way, they have a skill and will return it when they grow up. The Holy See forms a virtuous circle.
The group that Iluli brought with her today is a group of talented orphans trained by the Holy See. These boys and girls are likely to enter the Holy See and become a new force in the future, so they are qualified to let the saint lead them to do volunteer work.
"I didn't expect the Holy See to be quite advanced in this regard."
Tang En was surprised after listening to Iluli's introduction. In order to help rulers promote their ruling policies, charities are indispensable. However, he and Alleria have only just begun to try, but the Holy See has already There is a complete industrial chain.
Iluli smiled softly, her heart full of sweetness: "That's because the development and growth of the Holy See of Light cannot be separated from these children. If you just maintain a cold attitude, no matter how close you are to the people, the people will not be able to do it. Really support the Holy See.”
She looked back at the children behind her, and was slightly stunned when she noticed their hostile eyes. When the children saw this, they immediately changed into silly and innocent expressions. Iluli thought it was her. Dazzled, he smiled at them, then turned back to Tang En and said: "This group of children have just escaped from the sea of misery not long ago. They basically don't have much practical experience, so this time I need to lead them to the farm to learn."
"Our believers in Yalinks welcome us to take the children there to study as volunteers. This time we are going to the Porta family in Oak Village outside the city. His family's farm raises many poultry and livestock, and also grows There are large tracts of wheat, but the spring plowing has passed, so there is nothing to learn on the farmland. Today I took them there to learn how to feed poultry and livestock, and how to feed Gumil. A docile herbivorous beast, it doesn't look like a cow, but considering that the function is the same, Tang En simply called it that.) Milking, etc., and then borrowing their venue to let these children learn the basics Field experience...er, I mean field combat."
You obviously didn't think wrong at first, so why did you have to add the last sentence with a blushing face! ! !
After a group of people arrived at the prearranged place, a large carriage had been waiting there for a long time.
Tang En asked in a low voice: "It's still very cold now, why don't you just charter a magic bus to come here?"
Iluli said a little embarrassedly: "Although the magic car is very convenient, the chartered service is too expensive. We don't have that much budget. Besides, Oak Village is not far away. Taking a carriage is enough. In fact, the children originally decided to walk Those who walked over were worried that they were freezing, so I rented a carriage.”
They are quite scheming.
Tang En muttered in his heart. Walking there on foot would be like going on an outing, and you could still chat with Iluli all the time. Wouldn't it be nice to go back and forth for two or three days?
Due to the recent rapid expansion of magic cars and buses, it has been difficult to do business in carriage shops recently. Most of those who are able to continue operating have begun to transform into taxis with the support of policies. Only a small part People who neither want to be merged and transformed nor give up their business continue to stick to the horse-drawn carriage rental business.
They firmly believe that magic cars and everything else are heresy, and people will return to the embrace of horse-drawn carriages sooner or later.
It's a pity that the sad-looking coachman didn't bring much convincing to people.
Seeing them coming, the coachman, who had not had any business for a long time, suddenly smiled and invited them to get on the bus very diligently. Since there were two more people, the coachman wanted to charge more, but he was worried about the hard-earned business. I was scared away again...
Tang En handed him ten silver coins and said with a smile, "Is the fare for the two of us enough?"
"Enough is enough!"
The coachman immediately beamed with joy, what a good man!
Tang En and Olina were not counted at the beginning, so the carriage was a little short of space, and only one seat was squeezed out. Iluli originally wanted the children to squeeze in to make room, but she didn't expect Tang En to sit down. After that, Olina sat directly on his lap.
Such a bold behavior made Eluli hide her face in shock. She was a queen so high and mighty, and she actually sat on Tang En's lap in broad daylight? Could it be that they want to sneak it on the road... This is too, too, too exciting, right?
If Tang En knew what Eluli was thinking, he would definitely feel that this saintly girl was indeed completely broken and hopeless!
Olena, who was silent, lowered her head and her neck was red. She also felt very ashamed. How could the upbringing she had received since childhood make her behave in such an unseemly manner? This was almost challenging her acceptance limit, especially the eyes of the children across from her, which made her feel like there were needles in her back. She felt uncomfortable no matter how she sat, as if the two of them were playing some shameful PLAY in public. Same.
Especially since Tang En always liked to cause mischief, Olina was worried that he would suddenly do something strange secretly on the road, and then asked herself to endure it and remain calm...
Fortunately, Tang En really seemed to be planning to take a vacation for himself. He had no intention of playing a prank at all. He simply hugged Olina and admired the scenery along the street.
Although the pedestrians on the road are in a hurry, they all have happy smiles on their faces. The busy work also means that they live a very fulfilling life. For ordinary people, the end of the world is too far away. Having a goal in life is enough. enough.
The carriage drove smoothly out of Yalinks, and then headed south. As soon as it left Yalinkes, the world in front of us suddenly became much wider. The empty plains suddenly appeared in our eyes, with greenery on the plains, blue sky and white clouds. From below, you can vaguely see many people working in the farmland of the village in the distance. In the farmland that has just been planted, the wheat has grown to waist height. Further away, you can also see some magical agricultural machinery reclaiming wasteland. After more than two years of rapid development, the Datang Chamber of Commerce has completely changed the daily lives of these people and is adapting to the changes in this society at an astonishing speed.
Tang En asked in astonishment: "How come the wheat grows so fast!? And these flowers, plants and trees, they must have just sprouted now, right? How come they are all grown?"
Yi Luli pursed her lips and smiled. Just when she was about to explain, the driver in front turned back and smiled: "Guest, you haven't been out recently, right? This is a miracle!"
"miracle?"
"Yes, a few days ago, suddenly a green light enveloped the whole world. After bathing in the green light, many people found that their long-standing ailments were suddenly cured. I watched my neighbor's The arm bitten off by the monster grew back again."
"Not only that, everyone also found that under the green light, the crops and flowers that were supposed to have just sprouted actually grew directly. I even heard that Ronitant had already begun to rush to harvest, preparing to rush to the end of the month. Planting a new batch of crops, what do you think this is if it’s not a miracle?”
Tang En's eyes widened: [Nora! ! ! 】
Nora, who was hiding in her pocket, held her head and crouched in defense: [I won’t listen, I don’t know anything, don’t ask me, I won’t say it’s my fault. It’s obviously Tang En’s fault...]
Okay, don’t bring it upon yourself!
