They are neither relatives nor friends, and Meng Han has never said that he is a philanthropist. Such a request can indeed be called an unkind invitation. Meng Han did not refuse directly, but just asked Andy Sword God to give a reason.
, but in fact, the rejection has been clearly expressed.
It's not that Meng Han is insensitive. There are too many such situations. How could Meng Han save them one by one? Moreover, Meng Han doubts whether these people are really poor. In the case of Claudia and Lidia
Because of their reputation, they would not make a lot of money by performing in the territory of the great nobles. Even if there are tens of thousands of people, it is probably more than enough to support them. How can they be so worried? Obviously, the population can only be more.
Besides, with so many people gathered together, obviously led by the Lord Sword God and two female artists, are the local lords not afraid at all? Obviously, there must be some ulterior motives in this kind of thing.
"What if they become your subjects? And move to your territory, will you raise them?" Lord Sword God reluctantly gave Meng Han a reason. He also knew that not everyone is like Claudius
Ya and Lidya are so kind, Meng Han just wants a reason, unlike many lords who want more.
"No!" Meng Han categorically refused. Before Andy Sword God could refute, Meng Han had already answered directly: "My people all rely on their hard work to support themselves. I only do what I can."
I just provide them with some job opportunities. They are the ones supporting themselves. I have never supported them. People still have to rely on themselves."
This answer obviously surprised Sword God Andy even more than Meng Han's affirmative answer. I thought that even if Meng Han didn't support these later people, he would at least support the twins. Unexpectedly, Meng Han would say this.
However, he couldn't refute what Meng Han said in the last sentence. People still have to rely on themselves. In fact, from the heart of Andy Sword God, he couldn't agree more. However, Claudia and Lidya, two kind-hearted people,
But he couldn't bear to hurt the girl.
"So, if they become your subjects, will you provide them with job opportunities?" Since Meng Han said this, it is also a good opportunity for Andy Sword God. I believe that if Meng Han
If given the opportunity, as long as you work hard, I believe it is not difficult for a person to support himself.
"Yes!" Meng Han did not sell out, nor did he refuse: "This is originally the responsibility of a lord."
"Responsibility?" Sword God Andy suddenly envied these people in Huangsha City. In today's world, which aristocratic lord would regard the lives of his people as his own responsibility? Which one is not extorting unreasonable taxes and wishing to take advantage of those poor people?
The people of Huangsha Town are peeling off another layer of skin. The people of Huangsha Town are actually very happy to have such a lord.
"Then I ask them all to move here, will you accept it?" If Meng Han can do as he said, the lives of those people will not be any problem. And from the perspective of the Sword God, these people who came here
The days were enough for him to see clearly the lives of the people here. Not to mention the civilians, even the slaves could have enough food and clothing, so there was nothing to worry about. Therefore, Andy Sword God immediately put the last
The solution was proposed.
"Migrate them all?" Meng Han quickly turned his head and looked at Sword God Andy with an extremely surprised look, as if he had never known him before: "Are you kidding me?"
"Why, you don't want to?" Andy Sword God had a straight face and asked even more surprised: "Are you saying one thing and doing another?"
"Hundreds of thousands of people will move just because you say they will move?" Meng Han looked at Sword God Andy as if he were a fool: "Even if you are the Sword God, have you ever thought about the wishes of the local lords? They will be happy to do so.
Seeing hundreds of thousands of territorial residents leave their territory easily?"
"Hundreds of thousands of people?" Andy Sword God was startled: "Where did the hundreds of thousands of people come from? There are only more than 4,000 people."
As soon as Andy Sword God finished speaking, Meng Han showed a disgusting expression on his face, as if he had eaten a fly, and then turned cold: "Are there only a few thousand people?"
"Yes! There are only a few thousand people, so it won't be that troublesome." Andy Sword God thought he had changed his mind and hurriedly replied. In his heart, he desperately hoped that Claudia and Lidya could get rid of this kind of problem.
Trouble, Meng Han has become his most satisfying problem-solving partner.
"How many gold coins should Claudia and Lidia give these people a year to live?" Meng Han's voice has become colder and colder. If Claudia and Lidia are not stingy, then there is something wrong with these people.
.No matter what the situation is, it is not something that can make him happy.
"At least 20,000 gold coins per year." Hearing this question, Andy Sword God sighed with some distress: "This is already the limit of what Claudia and Lidia can earn. No matter how much more, I'm afraid
We have to do something that neither they nor I want to do."
After finishing speaking, Andy Sword God discovered that Meng Han's face had turned livid and cold. The stunned Andy Sword God didn't know what happened, and asked in surprise: "What's wrong?"
"I don't want these people!" Meng Han refused categorically this time, showing no mercy: "It's none of my business if they die how they like. If possible, call Claudia and
Lidya and the others should give up too, it’s not worth it!”
"Why?" The words were asked almost in unison. In addition to His Excellency Sword God Andy, there were also Claudia and Lidia who had already changed their clothes and were about to come out to perform. The two ladies were even a little angry.
, as if she was angry with Meng Han for telling them to give up.
"Alice, tell them, before I came to Huangsha Town, how much was the daily income of Huangsha Town?" Meng Han seemed to have lost interest in answering the question. He just waved his hand and asked Alice to come forward and explain. He sat on a chair.
He closed his eyes, not to look at the expressions of Claudia and Lidia next, nor to look at the anger of Sword God Andy.
Alice's face was equally cold. She took two steps forward and said calmly: "Before you came to Huangsha Town, Huangsha Town's daily income was three silver coins, and there were a total of 842 of us.
This kind of life has been like this since Huangsha Town became a cursed place, and it has lasted for at least a few hundred years." After saying that, without explaining, he retreated directly behind Meng Han.
Naturally, Grace and Alice would not stop Claudia and Lydia's rehearsal performance. However, after hearing such a disgusting story, even Alice was no longer in the mood to watch the performance.
"How is that possible?" Claudia and Lidia both exclaimed, their faces full of disbelief. Three silver coins a day can feed more than 800 people. Doesn't that mean that for more than 4,000 people, only 15 are needed?
Silver coins? Even if the people in Huangsha Town are living a hard life, if this number is expanded ten times, it is only 150 silver coins, equivalent to 1.5 gold coins. There are more than 300 days in a year, calculated based on 400 days.
However, if you need 600 gold coins, you can live ten times better than the twins did. Even if this number becomes ten times more, it will only be 6,000 gold coins. And the two women have to support 20,000 gold coins every year, but it is still not enough.
Where were these gold coins spent?
"Nothing is impossible." Meng Han, who had his eyes closed, spoke again: "On my first day in business, I earned ten silver coins. On that day, the entire Huangsha Town was like celebrating a festival. They had enough to eat, and there was also a third person on the table.
Once I had meat, it was the most delicious meal I have ever had in my life.”
Meng Han's words caused the four women around him to nod frequently. Grace Alice and Demi Diana ate meat for the first time. They were so delicious that they even forgot to greet Meng Han and ate the pot of meat cleanly.
, and Meng Han only gnawed one piece of black bread, but Meng Han felt that it was the most delicious meal he had ever eaten. Thinking of these, the four women felt an unspeakable warmth in their hearts. Looking at Meng Han's eyes, their hearts filled with tenderness.
I wish I could melt myself into Meng Han's arms.
What is certain is that Claudia and Lidia are not from the lower class, and Sword God Andy is even more so. It is estimated that they have no idea how much gold coins a person needs to live with food and clothing. The current posture looks like
, they foolishly raise as much as others say. When others say it is not enough, they start to worry and look for solutions everywhere.
No one is perfect. No matter who he is, he always has his weaknesses. Meng Han has a deeper understanding of this. With Claudia and Lidia's artistic talents, they are absolutely amazing. It's a pity that
, in terms of life, especially in terms of life at the bottom, he is an idiot. Sword God Andy, even if Meng Han's personal guards come together, he may not be his opponent, but when it comes to arranging people's lives, he may not even have a foot of Grace.
Not even as good as a finger.
Thinking of this, Meng Han couldn't help but be alert and began to reflect on himself. What shortcomings or weaknesses did he have? After thinking about it, Meng Han suddenly came to a conclusion that made him feel depressed.
Greedy for money, lustful, extravagant, focused on enjoyment, and now he has a tendency to do whatever it takes to achieve the goal. Meng Han was very hurt. Isn't this the "excellent" character that only the villains in movies, TV novels have? How come I am in this 21st world?
The outstanding young man who traveled through time has become so miserable? Has he really fallen?
Meng Han closed his eyes and pondered here, while Claudia and Lidia over there were completely stunned. They did not expect that the richest lord in front of them could be regarded as the richest lord they had ever seen.
There were times when they were in such a state of desolation. What was even more unexpected was that the people they worked so hard to entertain various nobles and sold their beloved art to support were actually such a group of people.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt wronged. I couldn't help but stand in the hall of Buckingham Palace and burst into tears.
Opposite to the two women was His Excellency Sword God Andy. It is estimated that he has never been so angry in his life. His face was ashen and he said nothing. However, small wind groups began to gather around him.
