Weird Beggar
Wanggang City is a new big city that has developed in recent decades. Wanggang City and Hong Kong are across the sea. The so-called Wanggang means that you can see Hong Kong.
Despite its short history, Wanggang City has become one of the most developed cities in the country in just a few decades. However, the side effects of rapid development are also quite obvious. Public security is relatively chaotic, the rich and the poor are extremely uneven, and the number of foreign populations far exceeds the local population. In fact, some people have said that this is a city that has been occupied by immigrants from other places.
Wanggang Customs is quite famous in Wanggang City. It is one of several customs inspection stations in Wanggang City. The area inside the customs belongs to the urban center of Wanggang City. Basically, most of the people working inside the customs are white-collar workers sitting in offices, while most of the people working outside the customs are ordinary workers. However, in fact, many so-called white-collar workers, although working inside the customs, can only live outside the customs because they cannot afford the expensive rent inside the customs.
Outside Wanggang Pass is the most famous rental housing area in Wanggang City. More than 100,000 migrant workers live in this area. Every morning, many people rush out, cross the border and take the bus to work. This is a city with a very fast pace. Basically everyone only cares about themselves and has no time to care about others.
As usual, this morning, countless people walked quickly across the pedestrian bridge, all of them rushing to work. So, even though almost everyone noticed a man and a woman sitting against the railing of the bridge, almost no one looked at them for a second. Occasionally, there were a few people who looked at them for a second, but they all had the same thought in their minds: these two people were dressed quite cleanly, so why were they beggars here?
There are actually quite a few beggars on this pedestrian bridge. At first glance, there are at least four or five of them. Some of them seem very familiar to everyone because they are here almost every day. Many people have heard that these are actually professional beggars, so most people seldom give them money. However, occasionally some people are in a good mood, such as those who have found a job or a girlfriend, or who are passing by with their girlfriends, and express their sympathy. Others just want to do a good deed and get blessings. So, in fact, there are still people who will occasionally give a little alms, and this place has a large flow of people, so these beggars still have some income every day, more or less, so at least filling their stomachs should be no problem.
However, most of these beggars looked rather dirty, some even had disabilities and their hair was very messy. It was rare to see beggars as clean and tidy as this couple. But if you were to say that they were not beggars, there was an iron bowl for beggars in front of them, and now, there was not a penny in the bowl.
"Ding..." With a crisp sound, a coin was thrown into the bowl. The beggar couple finally got their first income. It was a one-dollar coin. The giver was a girl. She looked very happy and was obviously in a good mood today.
This voice finally woke up the male beggar who had been keeping his head down. He raised his head, revealing a face that was not handsome but somewhat pretty. He looked around, but his eyes were a little confused, as if he didn't understand the current situation.
"Isn't this shabby place Wanggang City?" After a long while, the man muttered to himself. Then, he finally saw the iron bowl in front of him. He was immediately angry and cursed angrily, "Song Yumei, you dead woman, you actually made me a beggar, just wait, I will take off your clothes and slap you 999 times a day until you die!"
This man was none other than Xia Tian. He had been in a coma since yesterday afternoon and had just woken up. He checked his physical condition as quickly as possible and found that the ice and fire spiritual energy in his body was suppressed and could not be used at all. In terms of skill alone, he was really no different from an ordinary person now.
Turning his head to look at the woman beside him, Xia Tian couldn't help but mutter to himself again: "Stingy, stingy, stingy, I told you long ago that being too stingy is not good, but you didn't believe me. Now you've been sold by your perverted master, right? Should I sell you too? But you're almost dead, it seems like you won't make much money."
This woman was naturally Ning Jie, but unfortunately she couldn't hear what Xia Tian said at all because she was truly unconscious and her skin was ice-cold. If she were sent to the hospital now, the doctor might directly judge that she was dead. Of course, Xia Tian knew that she was not dead yet and she actually still had a heartbeat.
Xia Tian first searched his body for a while and found that he had nothing on him, so he searched Ning Jie's body for a while, and surprisingly, he found a wallet.
"I hope there is still money here." Xia Tian was a little happy for a moment. He also knew that it was impossible to live without money these days. However, he was soon disappointed. The only thing in the wallet was an ID card, Ning Jie's ID card. Apart from that, there was nothing else!
"Looks like I have to go make money again." Xia Tian was a little depressed. Making money was not a problem, but he still had Ning Jie with him. He had to settle her down first. Otherwise, if he just left her here, others would think she was dead and might just bury her directly.
How can I make money with such a burden?
Looking at the coin in the bowl, Xia Tian felt a little unhappy. He was not a beggar and he would not make money in this way. So he took out the coin and threw it away.
With a clinking sound, the coin fell into the bowl of another beggar. This beggar was sitting opposite Xia. He was not very old, about fifteen or sixteen years old, and it seemed that one of his legs was broken.
"Thank you, brother. Thank you, brother!" The disabled young man was very sweet-mouthed. Although he was a little confused by Xia Tian's behavior, he immediately expressed his gratitude.
"Hey, let me ask you something. Is this place Wanggang City?" Xia Tian asked. He was not sure whether this was Wanggang or not.
"Brother, this is Wanggang City." The disabled young man looked a little strange. This man was so weird. He was obviously a beggar, but he was given money. Now he didn't even know where this place was. Was his brain broken?
"It's Wanggang City, that's good." Xia Tian murmured to himself. He had deliberately told Song Yumei that he hated Wanggang City, and Song Yumei really sent him here. Xia Tian didn't think that he would really live a life here, neither able to live nor to die, but the danger of Song Yumei still made him a little worried. He felt that Song Yumei was not mentally normal and was a little crazy. Although one cannot take everything a madman says seriously, one cannot take nothing seriously either. So he really didn't dare to contact those wives now. However, he didn't want to do nothing during this period of time, so he wanted to get rid of the idiot named Yi Zhiyan, because the little goblin told him that Yi Zhiyan should be in Wanggang.
"Brother, is this your girlfriend?" the disabled young man asked again, with an envious look on his face, because at this time, he finally saw Ning Jie's face, and was quite amazed for a moment. He felt that he was quite knowledgeable. Many young girls passed by here every day, and there were many beauties, but this was the first time he had seen such a beautiful one. This also made him feel that Xia Tian was very weird. He must have a problem with his brain. He was actually begging here with such a beautiful girlfriend?
"Hey, do you know how to make money quickly here?" Xia Tian did not answer the disabled boy's question, but asked a question in return.
It was already past nine o'clock, and there were not many people passing by on the overpass, so the two of them were able to chat smoothly. However, when the disabled boy heard Xia Tian's question, he was stunned: "Brother, aren't we just making money?"
"That's you, not me. I'm not a beggar!" Xia Tian was a little unhappy. "Let me ask you, where else can you make money besides being a beggar?"
"Well, brother, I really don't know. Apart from being a beggar, I don't know any other way to make money." The disabled boy looked a little embarrassed.
"No wonder you can only be a beggar." Xia Tian was a little unhappy. He picked up the iron bowl in front of him and threw it in front of the disabled boy. "Here, I'll give you two bowls. Maybe you can get more money."
"Thank you, big brother." The disabled boy actually placed the bowl in front of him, but he was muttering in his heart that this guy must have something wrong with his brain.
Xia Tian did not speak to the disabled young man anymore. He began to think about how to make money. Although his martial arts skills were sealed, his medical skills were still there. It was just that without the assistance of ice and fire spiritual energy, his medical skills would not be as effective as before, but he could still deal with common diseases. However, he soon discovered one thing. It seemed that even his silver needles were taken away by that woman Song Yumei.
"No, there are two more." Xia Tian suddenly remembered something, and then he pulled out two silver needles from his head with his hands. At that time, in order to improve his skills, he inserted two silver needles on his head, and now these two silver needles have become the only items around him.
However, Xia Tian had had several experiences and knew that if he took the initiative to treat people now, he would most likely be regarded as a liar. It seemed that even if he wanted to make money with his medical skills, he had to find a good opportunity and could not just ask anyone to treat him.
"Boy, are you new here?" Xia Tian was thinking about the problem, but suddenly a drake-like voice came into his ears.
Xia Tian looked up and found a man standing in front of him. He looked to be in his thirties or forties, thin and skinny, with small eyes. His eyeballs were the size of soybeans and looked a little cloudy. He was dressed in tattered clothes, and one of his legs seemed to be disabled, so he was using a crutch.
"Who are you?" Xia Tian stared at the man with some dissatisfaction.
"Boy, you are quite courageous. You come here to eat for free, but you don't even come to worship the pier. Don't you know that this is my territory, Tieguai Qi?" The man who called himself Tieguai Qi looked at Xia Tian, and then saw Ning Jie who was next to Xia Tian. "I'll give you two choices. First, pay 100 yuan a day, which is 200 for the two of you. Second, give me your woman to play with, and I can exempt you from your daily salary."
