Chapter 1287: The little boy who buys charcoal!

So, the next morning, Li Lizhi pulled Li Chengfeng and came to the East Street of Chang'an City.
He told Li Chengfeng's mother and Cheng Yingying.
The weather has been cold recently, but the number of customers in Fanghua Building has increased instead of reducing.
Because drinking in winter can warm people's hearts.
When Cheng Yingying heard this, Li Shimin wanted to take them with him and go back to Luojiang Village?
At the beginning, Cheng Yingying refused.
But then I thought about it and went back to my hometown to take a look. The villagers in the province were still gossiping. This time I brought the real emperor to see if I could still block their mouths?
"Sell, sell charcoal, sell charcoal!"
Suddenly, a tender voice came from outside the door.
It turned out to be a young man selling charcoal.
The young man stood beside a rich man, ragged and barefoot, and was carrying a basket of black charcoal on his back.
The young man was selling his charcoal.
But the rich man ignored it at all and said disdainfully: "Go away, what month has it been? I started selling charcoal? Get out of here, don't disturb my interest in eating! Moreover, Fanghualou is like this
Can you come from a poor person like you? Let go and go!"
"Master, please, just sell me these charcoal. My sister is seriously ill and needs to spend money to treat her!"
The little boy started to cry in grievance.
However, in this absurd world with a weak human nature, who will understand your difficulties?
Sure enough, the rich man shook his head and said, "Who knows if you are lying? I was cheated last time, so the one I hate the most is the liar!"
"Go away quickly, don't disturb my interest in drinking!"
After saying that, the fat man pushed the little boy directly and pushed the little boy to the ground.
The rich and fat man glanced at him and left without looking back.
The little boy fell on the ground, but he didn't care about the pain on his body. He quickly got up and put the charcoal scattered all over the ground behind him into the basket.
While wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, he picked up charcoal on the ground.
So when the dirty fingers are rubbed on the face, they will leave dark fingerprints.
...
At the door, Li Chengfeng saw it and frowned tightly.
Indeed, no matter in that world or in that corner, there are many unknown people who are suffering differently!
The little boy was barefoot, with a piece of blue, purple and black on his feet, and there were blood marks, which were scratched by thorns.
There are more than a dozen wounds visible to the naked eye.
Moreover, he was hungry and had a pale face and thin skin, with bony bones, and only had a pair of eyes, as bright and simple as a pair of gems.
"Oh, where are the broken kids coming from? Go and go, go and go, go and go. I came a few days ago, and I'm here again today? Get out of here quickly!"
At the door, Butler Liu from Fanghua Building saw the child and went forward to drive him away without saying a word.
The child was pushed by him a few times, and then staggered back a few steps, his eyes full of despair and helplessness.
If no one stood up to help him at this time, his heart would be really desperate.
"well!"
Li Chengfeng sighed, to be honest, he couldn't stand it anymore.
But just when he wanted to step forward.
Li Lizhi took the lead.
Li Lizhi patted Butler Liu on the shoulder and said, "Hey, I'll leave it to me to deal with this place. You can go and do your business!"
"Oh? Princess Changle? Princess, don't believe these guys. They are all liars. They have deceived several families. Basically, everyone on Chang'an Street and in the streets and alleys knows that they are all liars!"
"Oh? How do you say this?" Li Li asked in confusion.
The housekeeper said, "On the Nanling Mountain south of Chang'an City, there is a group of small dolls who specialize in cheating. Those little dolls go down the mountain to sell some very ordinary things, selling them at a high price. What do you say, your sister is seriously ill, or
It was the old mother at home who was sick and had no money to buy medicine, so as to gain sympathy from others and make money! Many people have been fooled, so many people choose to drive them away after seeing them.
People will help! Because the hearts of good people have been wiped out by them!"
"Who doesn't want to be a good person, but we don't want to be an idiot!"
After saying that, the butler turned around and instructed: "Princess Changle, be careful, don't be deceived!"
Li Lizhi nodded and said, "I understand, butler, go and do it. I will handle this matter myself!"
"Hey, OK!"
...
Immediately afterwards, Li Lizhi came to the little boy and said, "How much is it? I'll ask for all these charcoal!"
The little boy looked up and looked at Li Lizhi with gratitude, saying, "This lady, I need 10 taels of silver!"
"Oh? It's only ten taels of silver, it's not expensive! It's just ten taels of silver!"
As a princess of a great country, ten taels of silver are just a small amount of money for Li Lizhi.
But in fact, this basket of charcoal cannot be sold even a tael of silver.
Moreover, many people burn charcoal by themselves during the winter, so charcoal is not worth anything at all.
Only some children of wealthy families will call their servants to go to the countryside to buy charcoal to keep warm in winter.
After saying that, Li Lizhi took out ten taels of silver from her pocket and handed it to the little boy, saying, "Oh, this is ten taels of money. You have collected it, hurry up and take the money and go back to see your sister's doctor.
!”
"Thank you, thank you, Miss. I can't repay you for your great kindness!"
The little boy immediately knelt on the ground and started crying.
Li Lizhi was also soft-hearted. She took out two taels of silver from her sleeve and handed it to the little boy, saying, "I'll give you two taels of silver. After you cure your sister's condition, remember to take him to eat.
Order something delicious! If you can’t find a job in the future, come to Fanghua Building to find me, and I will arrange your work and residence for you!"
"Yes, thank you sister!"
"Well, okay, don't cry anymore! Hurry up and wipe your tears and go home!"
"Yeah, thank you!"
After saying that, the boy wiped away the tears in his eyes, carried an empty basket, and turned around and left.
Li Lizhi looked at the boy's departure back, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.
Because in her opinion, she did another good thing today.
But in fact, she was indeed deceived!
...
"Come on, Butler Liu, help clean up the charcoal at the door!"
Li Lizhi turned around and said to Butler Liu.
Butler Liu shook his head helplessly and said, "Oh, Princess Changle, why didn't you listen when I said that? That's a liar, 10 taels of silver, I can't make so much money in half a month!
…”
Butler Liu continued to feel distressed and said in a silence: "If this basket of charcoal can be sold for ten taels of silver? Then I might as well sell charcoal in the future. Why do I have to work here to death?"
"Hmm? Then you think you're tired? Don't you want to do it? Brother Feng'er, he said he doesn't want to do it anymore and wants to change jobs!"
As a result, Li Lizhi turned her head and was like Li Chengfeng complaining.
Chapter completed!
