BXBX NOVEL Chapter 16: Time to think about farming
After listening to Ed's words, Mary was completely stunned. She never thought that she would have the opportunity to return to her original good life, and she might even become a knight class.
Even though this stubborn girl became the mother of two children and experienced many years of hardships, she never gave up the idea of returning to the upper class.
Thus, Ed enjoyed the happiness of his wedding night on this night, and a sense of mastery and conquest rose in Ed's heart for a long time. He had never had such an idea and persistence in doing something.
The early morning in London is filled with the smell of feces. It is because the horse-riding merchants have come to the market to buy and sell goods, and the drunken big man defecates everywhere, and the poor people don’t care about using the streets as toilets... this One thing makes up all the filth and clutter of London.
Because of the rain just now, the disgusting yellow feces sewage flowed wantonly, and the pedestrians on the road walked as usual as if they didn't see it.
And the sewage slowly flows along the gully into the Thames River, the mother river of London. This is the cycle of nature.
Ed had breakfast, and began to bring a bulging wallet to the street far away from his home, pretending to be casually strolling.
Ed saw a stall selling shoes and hats full of exquisite clothing, and a butterfly-shaped little girl's shoe with pink and red edges on the stall caught Ed's gaze.
At this moment, Ed couldn't help thinking that his eldest daughter was already 4 years old, and he hadn't given her a decent gift yet.
Action is worse than heartbeat, Ed seemed to think of the happy look of his eldest daughter Yi Na when she saw the gift, and the corners of his mouth split open.
The owner of the stall is an old man who can read his face. Seeing Ed wandering around in front of the stall, he introduced him to Ed consciously.
"Sir, you have a really good vision. This is made by the most famous Mrs. Aisha in London. Look at the color, how beautiful the needlework is. It is the most suitable gift for your daughter or niece..."
The boss who was bald on one side was chattering, like a swarm of bees surrounding Ed's cerebral cortex.
"Sir! Sir! Stop it! I know what you're talking about!" Ed couldn't take it anymore, and quickly told the boss to stop.
"I just want to know how many cute silver coins this pair of cute shoes cost!" Ed's words made the old man a little embarrassed, but adhering to the businessman's principle of making money, the old man reluctantly stated the price.
"Sir, just one shilling to take home these lovely shoes!"
"Oh! God!" Ed was shocked by the shamelessness of the boss.
Even if he didn't bring a coin today, even if he did, he wouldn't pay such a high price. This is almost robbery!
"Hey! You **** vampire, you actually asked me for a shilling for such a small pair of shoes, do you know how much it is?" Ed said angrily.
"Hey! Man, do you know that this is Mrs. Aisha's masterpiece, a shilling is already very cheap, this is the only product I have!" The boss quarreled unrelentingly.
Ed, who was only arguing with the boss, didn't see a sneaky figure approaching Ed slowly, quietly without making a sound.
Andre was an orphan. He was adopted by the church since he was a child. After the monastery he lived in was confiscated by His Majesty Henry VIII when he was six years old, he learned how to eat with those older children who were wandering on the streets. .
Over the past six years, he has stolen countless wallets, with failures and successes.
But today, this fat sheep is a daredevil at first glance, and he even carries a bulging wallet with him on the street. Don't you know my little Andre's name on this street?
Huh! This is a newcomer, you deserve to be unlucky enough to meet me!
Andre was moving in his heart as he approached Ed cautiously.
Andre looked at the two people who were constantly bargaining fiercely, and secretly put the knife in his small hand on the wallet.
With a light swipe of the knife, there was a squeak, and the wallet was in Andre's hands. Before he had time to be happy, suddenly a pair of big hands grabbed his little hand like giant pliers. Andre had only one feeling: I am in trouble today!
Even though Ed is thin, he is quite strong, carrying Andre like a puppy.
Andre shrank his neck, not daring to make any movements, like a kitten that just got wet in the rain, looking very pitiful.
"Don't pretend to be pitiful to me, little guy!" Ed didn't care about arguing with the boss, he hurriedly picked up Andre, and walked to a small alley.
"I've seen a lot of people like you!" Ed threatened from time to time, "You'd better be obedient! Otherwise, you will bear the consequences!"
Andre did not expect to meet an old driver, oh no! As a veteran, I couldn't help but feel helpless, how could I be so unlucky!
Andre felt that he was thrown into the corner like a stone, so helpless.
I heard that some people like to play with children, especially little boys, God, bless me!
"Little guy! Tell me, where is your stronghold?" Ed suddenly broke Andre's fantasy, and asked another sentence that made Andre angry.
"Damn you, I won't tell you about our stronghold, you should die!" Andre hates such traffickers the most. They not only sell girls into brothels, but also grow The Bai Jing boy sold to nobles and wealthy businessmen who have special hobbies.
"Little guy! You misunderstood, I am not a human trafficker, the king asked me to take you to the adoption home!" Ed felt that the boy in front of him seemed to have misunderstood something, so he couldn't help explaining.
"Who doesn't understand your tricks, you can't fool me!" Andre was not moved by Ed's words at all.
For the remaining half an hour, no matter what Ed said, he couldn't impress Andre.
"Okay! I swear in the name of God, if I tell you a lie, my soul will fall into **** and be listed with Satan!" In desperation, Ed used the oath to make Andre believe in himself.
"Okay! I'll trust you for now!" Even though England carried out the religious reform, it only transferred the power of the pope to the king, and it did not affect the people's belief in God at all. So after Ed swears with God, Andre kind of believes him.
I saw Andre and Ed turning left and right to a dilapidated monastery, dozens of children aged three to fourteen.
Andre laughed happily when he saw this, these are all mine, the top three are expected!
One month has passed, and the secret agents of the Dark Blade have brought nearly 3,000 orphans with their own abilities, and the efficiency is frighteningly high.
But where there is sweetness, there is bitterness. No, Manager Luna is here to complain!
"Your Majesty, the food stored in Windsor Castle is not enough for a month!"
Edward patted his forehead and couldn't help sighing: "It's time to start farming!"
Thanks to the God of Heaven, I see I conquer, Lancasterkoo, Xuan Shuyou, Funeral, Ye, Xingcheng, Fan Ye has been in Aurora for three thousand years, Lili 599, everyone’s big votes support! Your support is my greatest encouragement.
