Are there beggars in Otis City
Du Lin was stunned. With the development of Odis City to this day, it is difficult to see beggars. It can even be said that he has never seen any "street friends" such as beggars and homeless people. He did not follow Illian's example, forcing beggars and tramps to work and not letting them go until they could afford a house. There are very few... beggars and homeless people in Otis City. Firstly, there are places where you can make money everywhere in the city. As long as you are willing to put in some effort, you can always get a good job. Work.
Secondly, most of the currency in circulation in Otis City is chips. Currently, the smallest denomination of chips is fifty cents. No kind person would give fifty cents to a beggar. Ten or five cents is about the same. This has led to a lack of living space for beggars and homeless people. Most of the tourists have chips in their hands. At the same time, if they want to get the chips, they still need to redeem them. If they exchange too many chips or too many times, it will make people feel uncomfortable. To disgust.
So when Kena said there were beggars outside the door, Dulin was still a little bit unable to turn around. He was a little suspicious, but he didn't expect these beggars to come here spontaneously or with a purpose. If it was spontaneous, it would make sense. Almost most of the upper class people gathered here tonight. A little charity from these people would be enough for them to eat for half a month. If it was for a purpose...could it be Felicia
He thought it was impossible. He heard that Harry, the heir to the Fatima family, did not often walk outside. They are different from those small families. Small families need heirs to gradually master the art of management by managing the family business. Through the most basic practice, they gradually understand the steps that a thing needs to go through from birth to solution, and how to allocate resources. , and at the same time cultivate the qualities of these heirs in all aspects, so that they will not understand everything.
But the heirs of the Fatima family only need cramming education and constant decision-making. They spend most of their time reading some typical cases, learning from them the essence of these cases and the reasons for the results, and then Deciding on the documents sent by family businesses large and small, there is no need to climb step by step from the ground to the cloud, they are directly on the cloud.
They only need to point to a location, and the people below will take the initiative to operate, without them needing to experience any "life" at all!
Without contact with the outside world, it is very difficult to have any enemies, but no matter what, Felicia's safety must be ensured. There is no doubt about this.
"Pay attention to the surrounding situation and arrange security guards. If these people want to attack Felicia, kill them immediately!" In order to prevent anyone from putting the blame on him, Du Lin quickly made arrangements.
This is not impossible. There are always two or three people he has offended who are still alive. Maybe someone is eager to frame him in this way. Even if he was able to remove himself in the end, it would definitely take a lot of effort and even make a lot of compromises.
Keena nodded and left in a hurry, while Dulin took the initiative to follow the crowd and followed Felicia out of the hall door.
She actually lives upstairs, but as the most important guest today, she also needs to do some scene work. These upper-class people had put aside other things to attend the welcome dinner, and she made sure to see them off at the door.
When Felicia walked out of the door, she immediately saw the beggars outside the door. There were not many beggars, only four of them. They stood shivering on the roadside outside the hotel gate with unkempt hair. The weather in the late winter was getting colder, and they were only wearing light clothes. The wind in Otis City is very strong because there are no dense high-rise buildings around. The wind blowing from the wilderness will pass through the streets and go out from the other side of the city, causing the temperature of the entire city to drop rapidly.
These beggars held signs with slogans written on them, just begging passers-by to give them some change to fill their bellies. They knelt humbly on the pavement outside the hotel, looking pitifully at the distinguished guests walking out of the splendid hotel.
Felicia just paused and then took the initiative to walk over. Harry stopped her for a moment, but did not stop her.
"We cannot ignore that there are many people in this world who do not even have the most basic food and clothing problems solved just because we are well-dressed and well-fed. To us it may be an inconspicuous act of kindness, but to them Maybe this is the favor that can save their lives. The weather is getting cold, they should add some clothes." Felicia smiled and nodded to Harry, then walked down the steps with her skirt.
Many guests praised Ms. Felicia for her kindness and charity, praising her for having a beautiful heart like an angel, being so kind to beggars, and being a truly pure, kind and beautiful girl.
When Felicia walked to the beggars, they were all kneeling on the ground, holding broken utensils and saying begging words. Felicia patted her skirt. There were no pockets on the skirt. She looked at Vitor beside her apologetically, "I didn't bring any money. Did you bring it? Give these poor people some money. They can survive this winter."
Harry's hand had already been put into his pocket, holding a roll of money in his hand, but he noticed Felicia's inadvertent look and took his hand out again. The surrounding guests all made similar actions. After Princess Felicia distributed the money to these beggars, they naturally had to show that they were also true, kind and beautiful upper-class elites, and they had enough love for such poor vulnerable groups. .
But the next scene made some people's expressions change.
Vitor also touched his pocket and shook his head expressionlessly, "I'm very sorry, miss, I don't have any money with me either. But I heard that chips can be used as currency in Otis City and can also be exchanged for cash. "
"Is that so?" Felicia looked at Harry, who nodded subconsciously, and then realized something was going to go wrong.
Dulin also frowned and squeezed forward, but his speed was too slow, or Felicia and Vitor had too good a tacit understanding. The moment Harry nodded, Felicia withdrew her gaze. At the same time, She ordered Vitor to take out the golden chip Harry gave her at the dinner. The pure gold chip was numbered one, had a denomination of one thousand, and weighed more than one pound. Then in the dead silence, under the gaze of many eyes, she placed the chips of extraordinary significance in a beggar's small basin.
"This is a chip given to me by Governor Harry. The denomination is one thousand yuan. You can use it to buy some clothes and find a better place to spend this winter!" Felicia's smile was so bright that it seemed to be able to shine. Come, even the cold air seemed to be ignited by her smile and became warm.
Several beggars were trembling with excitement, crawling on the ground shivering, calling themselves "Her Royal Highness the Princess". They couldn't believe that such a good thing would happen to them. At night, when it was not completely dark, someone found them and told them to wait outside the most luxurious Alexander Hotel in Otis City, and something good would happen. And also paid them ten dollars. They came here with hesitation, thinking that it would not be a loss if they had ten yuan anyway, but who could have thought that so much money would fall on them
A thousand yuan in chips, that’s a thousand yuan in chips!
The next second, Harry's face looked very ugly, but Dulin became much calmer.
The world is full of malicious intentions. You don’t want to have anything to do with some people, but these people are trying their best to be your enemy!
All the guests from Otis City looked unhappy and left one after another. As "locals", they were actually humiliated in this farce. They showed their greatest sincerity to respect this young lady from the Fatima family, but what they got in exchange was such an ending, which really made people feel a little bit indescribable.
It's like... they are just like those beggars, and Miss Ferriga doesn't need to take care of them at all!
The crowd dispersed quickly, and Harry forced an ugly smile on his face, "It's getting late, and it's very cold outside. You'd better go to bed early, and I won't disturb you..." After saying this, he nodded in greeting, He turned around and walked towards the parking lot. In front of the bustling hotel, Felicia, Vitor and Dulin, as well as some security guards and waiters, were the only ones left in a short time.
Looking at the four beggars disappearing into the night, Felicia turned back and walked towards Dulin, and asked with a smile: "Before I came, someone told me that this is a happy city, and everyone in the city is happy. , But it doesn’t look like this now. Look, there are still some unhappy people!” After saying this, she smiled lightly and passed by Dulin. Vitor kept his head lowered, but he could be seen. The arc at the corner of the mouth.
There is no doubt that today's scene was very successful. It not only slapped Du Lin hard in the face, but also left no one with any reason to blame them. This is not something to embarrass or attack anyone, it is an expression of love and kindness. No one can accuse love and kindness of being wrong, so naturally the only person who is wrong is Du Lin.
Taking Harry with him.
Du Lin stood in the wind with his hands covered and lit a cigarette. Three minutes later, he seemed to be wrapped in a windbreaker and ran back with his head shrunken. He patted his pockets. The stiff and sagging lines of his clothes showed that there was something heavy inside.
"Did you get it back?" Du Lin asked, tilting his head.
"Bring it back!"
"Where are the people?"
"Send away!"
Du Lin put his arm around Dufo's shoulders and walked towards the hotel door, "Winter is coming..."
My son is reporting to school these days. There are a lot of things going on, so he can’t be too spiritual.
