Chapter 4 Fontaine has a regent
The foreman didn't say anything and patted Ye Luo on the shoulder. Many words were choked on his lips and he couldn't say them out.
"Boss, why are you still crying, haha!" Ye Luo looked at the foreman and teased with a smile.
"You kid, I was blown away by the wind and got sand in my eyes!" the foreman wiped his red eyes and said with a smile.
Ye Luo stretched out his hand, wanting to feel the wind below, but could only feel a rancid smell.
At this time, several uncles walked out. They were talking and laughing, and seemed not to be defeated by this difficult life.
"Tegler, where did you trick this kid? He's quite good-looking!" They looked at Ye Luo and joked.
"You guys, stop talking nonsense and set an example for the newcomers!" Tegler shook his head and patted their helmets.
"Everyone, my name is Ye Luo, please take care of me!" Ye Luo also smiled and greeted a few people. He was not good at people and sophistication, but he still knew basic courtesy.
Seeing Ye Luo's humble attitude, several people immediately nodded with satisfaction. The most important thing for a person is quality.
"Take it!" Tegler said, patting a helmet and a pair of gloves on Ye Luo's hands.
After Ye Luo took it, he directly equipped it.
"That's right, you look like a cleaner now!" Tegre patted Ye Luo on the shoulder and said with a smile.
"Okay, let's get to work!"
……
A few people walked along the stinking ditch...the Gray River and began to clean up the garbage on the river.
Some people put on their diving equipment and dived directly inside to clean up the accumulated garbage.
It was Ye Luo's first time here, so all he was given were some garbage on the river bank, and he didn't have to touch the water. In comparison, this was the easiest job.
……
An afternoon passed, and Ye Luo was already covered in sweat.
He rarely exercised, and although the job was relatively easy, he was still very tired after the work was done.
"It's time to get off work, it's time to get off work!" Tegele knocked on a gong to greet everyone to get off work.
The cleaner who dived into the water also showed his head, and the equipment outside was already covered with mud.
"Phew, it's finally time to get off work!"
Everyone had relaxed smiles on their faces and gathered around, waiting in line to be paid!
Ye Luo was at the back of the queue. After waiting for three or four minutes, he and Tegel were the only ones left.
"Here, here is your wages, you count them!" Tegele put ten molas in Ye Luo's hands and said with a smile.
Ye Luo nodded. Each coin was worth a hundred moras.
Then, he took out two more coins and handed them to Tegel, smiled awkwardly and said, "Uncle, can you cancel the previous agreement and give me a dinner?"
The two knew each other at work, so Ye Luo also called him uncle directly.
Tegre, however, shook his head and pushed Yeluo's Mora away.
When Ye Luo saw this, he felt a little discouraged. It seemed like he would have to find a cheap restaurant at night.
"It's just a meal. What else do you charge? Just come and eat!"
Tegele looked at Ye Luo's troubled appearance and couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder and comforted him.
"Thank you!" Ye Luo choked and nodded.
At this moment, a seed has been planted in his heart, but he doesn't know when it will grow into a towering tree!
……
"Come on, try this!" Several people sat around the table and recommended dishes to Ye Luo.
Ye Luo nodded and smiled politely at them.
The dishes on the table look pretty good, four dishes, one soup, and meat!
They toasted and drank, and from time to time some information popped out of their mouths, which could help Ye Luo understand Fontaine very well.
Ye Luo lowered his head to eat while listening to their talk.
Of course, he also asked some questions from time to time, and these people answered them patiently.
"If you ask me, then Villette is a traitor. He has control of Fontaine's justice, and the trial is nothing more than his own words!"
"I think Lord Water God is cute, but after all, he can't lead the people of Fontaine to prosperity!"
"Superficial, Lord Water God is just...a mascot, stabilizing the morale of the army!"
"One day, we will all die, leaving Lord Water God crying alone on the throne!"
……
Ye Luo listened for a long time. As the saying goes, listening to one sentence is worth ten years of reading!
After listening to their words, Ye Luo also sorted out some useful information.
First of all, the Water Goddess is very close to the people, which can be seen from her behavior of throwing coins.
Secondly, she is very good at it, so she will probably become very good friends with the princess!
Finally, she's a little silly.
The combination of these three points does not look like the characteristics of God.
However, she is the real god, a god revered by the people of Fontaine.
According to Wendy, divine power mainly comes from the belief of the people, so this water god must be very powerful.
And Villette seems to be the first person under the Water God.
An existence similar to Inazuma Kamiko, but this one seems to be a regent!
Ye Luo frowned. When he thought that he would fight with the Water God to defeat Sima Yi, he felt excited and his hands trembled.
However, for today’s plan, we still need to think about where to live first!
……
"Uncle Tegel, is there a house for rent on the lower floor?" Ye Luo looked at the drunk Tegre and couldn't help but ask.
"Rent a house? Feel free to live here!" Tegel pointed to a row of houses in front of him, his face flushed, and the taste of alcohol in his mouth was strong.
You are already so drunk, why are you looking at a room?
Ye Luo supported him and shook his head helplessly.
It seems that I have to live under the bridge today!
"Uncle Tegre, I'm going back first. Don't forget me if you have work in the future!"
Just as Ye Luo was about to say goodbye to Tegel, he held his hand.
"Xiao Luo, just stay!"
Tegre looked at Ye Luo, his eyes full of expectation.
They are getting old too. When they can no longer climb the stairs, who will buy supplies in the future? Who will go...
Ye Luo didn't say anything. He just wanted to stay temporarily and didn't intend to live in the lower class forever.
If you don't see the sun for a long time, you will not only get sick physically, but also mentally.
If he lived here for a long time, he felt that he would be depressed or crazy!
"Thank you, but..." Ye Luo met Tegler's gaze and finally shook his head, with tears in his eyes.
Mr. Lu Xun once said that studying medicine can only save some people, but studying literature can save the world.
Therefore, Ye Luo decided to become Funina's little follower, so that he could fundamentally solve the problems at the lower level.
Otherwise, picking up trash like today will never be able to solve the problems at the lower levels.
"Oh, I am superficial. You still have great youth, how can I delay you!" Tegre sighed, after all, he still had some extravagant hopes.
"That's not the case, it's just that I think the key to solving our problems at the lower levels lies not at the lower levels, but at the top!"
Ye Luo looked at Tegre and explained very seriously. Of course, the main reason is to hug the water god's lap.
Of course, this cannot be said.
