Fantasia of the Sky

Chapter 1360 Slums 4
"My own is definitely not enough to eat, but it is enough to count other people's estimates." Kerby made a gesture of waving his hand and hitting people: "So we have to grab it! If you can't grab it, steal it!"

In the slums, young and middle-aged men are the most "noble" existence - they have a stronger body, it is really easy to deal with the old and weak women and children; if their food is not enough to eat, they only need to find a way to go to the weak Just grab it.

Of course, other people will definitely not let them rob like this—women will look for husbands to protect themselves, elderly people will rely on their children, and blood relations are quite reliable in the slums; Several major "family forces" have also been formed in China. They check and balance each other and maintain a delicate cooperative relationship-the young and middle-aged of each family may be dragged to the border as cannon fodder during the next conscription. The relationship is too messed up. Being stiff is not good.Therefore, most of the people who were robbed were powerless old people, or "losers" who had just entered the slums.

Of course, everyone's food is stored separately - if they are put together, there will be more or less contradictions of "more or less".And if the stored food has been stored, the risk of being stolen will increase-everyone may be missed by thieves.If you think about it this way, it's safer to eat it in your stomach as soon as possible.Everyone in the slums guarded their food as best they could, and it was not impossible to starve to death if it was stolen.

"...Aside from thinking about each other's food, do you usually do other things?" Huanmeng didn't give up, and planned to ask some other things.

If there is some common language, the distance can be shortened even more... In that case, it may be easier for him to accept what he said.

"It's nothing!" Kerr spread his hands, "There's nothing to do! Old people, women, and children just bask in the sun in the shack all day, and they can't do anything like piles of shit! The younger ones can walk In two steps, go to the garbage dump outside the city to pick up some usable ones, use them yourself or sell them when you come back!"

Well, then there should be something to talk about...Huanmeng motioned him to continue talking with his eyes.

"What kind of eyes are you looking at?" Kerr frowned, "I won't go!"

"Hey...then, are you staying in the shack too?" Huanmeng asked—but since he used such dirty words to describe it, he probably wouldn't...?
"Of course!" Kerr exhaled proudly through his nose, "I don't pick up trash every day like those idiots! I make money by myself!"

To... make money by yourself?According to Isa's words, don't they have no place to get what they need in life?

"It's not a crooked way!" Seeing Huanmeng's puzzled face, Kerr quickly waved his hand: "I went to work in a nearby village! I made money with my own efforts!"

...to work in the village?

Hmm...is there another way?Although it is reasonable, it is a bit unexpected... Isn't that what Aisa said?According to her, the poor are all existences that cause trouble to the country... But such things as part-time jobs must be paid for their labor, right?
It is necessary to continue asking.
