Lord of the Divine Show

"Okay, Jones, Carmela, Jennifer..."

Zhong Shenxiu clapped his hands and called his three brothers and sisters together: "Something happened. I need you to come with me and leave here temporarily..."

He has not forgotten who owned the batch of stolen liquor last night.

Old sea dog!

In Levi's memory, he was an old white man with a cold temperament. It was said that he had been a sailor when he was young, and later came to Byron City alone and opened an underground bar. He had a bad temper and was ruthless.

The most important thing is that most of the black market bar owners at this time have some relationship with gangs.

Last night, an important batch of his goods was robbed and suffered heavy losses. Today, Li Wei came back in a big way, which might create some unnecessary associations.

And even just expressing anger can easily bring disaster to this family!

Although Zhong Shenxiu can let it go and use this old sea dog to cut off his ties to this world.

But thinking about it, it's still a bit too cruel.

"leave?"

Jones's expression suddenly became very solemn, and he suddenly became furious: "I knew... I knew you didn't find a job as a scribe, but worked for those gangs... I shouldn't..."

He turned back and forth in panic, with tears in his eyes, like a helpless puppy.

In places like ghettos, where federal laws are difficult to govern, gangs shoulder most of the government's responsibilities.

Just thinking about it makes me feel terrible.

"Okay, I'm just leaving temporarily. I promise you, everything will get better soon."

Zhong Shenxiu sighed and asked his younger brothers and sisters to pack their things.

In fact, Levi Mojito protected the three of them very well.

Most of my previous salary as a bartender was invested in this family.

Otherwise, according to the custom of using child labor in federal factories, even the youngest Jennifer might have entered a flesh and blood factory at this time, and she would not have the leisure she has now.

Moreover, they were not hungry after all.

"You don't need to take anything else. It's not worth anything anyway. Just take a few clothes and still have money..."

Zhong Shenxiu pulled out a tin box from under the bed. After opening it, there were some rolled up dollars and coins inside.

The green dollar was the currency issued by the United Bank of Mesoemia, but to be honest, it wasn't very popular.

When Levi was working as a bartender, he didn't like the few-cent tip with banknotes.

What he prefers are various coins that are rich in metals. Of course, if they are golden gold pounds, that would be even better.

Zhong Shenxiu rubbed the only one dollar bill.

The thick and crisp paper brings an indescribable pleasure when touched. On the front of the banknote is the image of an old man with a gray beard.

According to Li Wei's meager historical knowledge, I know that he was probably the founding sage of Mesoemia.

As for the name, it has long been blurred.

"Well, a total of 2 dollars and 37 cents. Is this a family's entire savings?"

Zhong Shenxiu stuffed all the banknotes and coins into his pocket, and suddenly felt a little sad: "Then Levi's dream is very rich...how much is it?"

Not long after, a group of four people went out.

Since I didn’t carry much luggage, it looked like a normal trip.

Zhong Shenxiu first went to a bakery on the corner and glanced at the cupboard.

Most of the bread sold here is brown bread and white bread, and the portions seem to be extremely solid, so hard that they can be used as weapons.

After all, this is the Western world, which is accustomed to using this kind of bread as a staple food, not a snack.

Pastries that add a lot of eggs, cream, and essence are very rare.

Probably because this is a slum area with limited purchasing power.

Zhong Shenxiu glanced at the prices and saw that the cheapest pound of black bread cost five cents.

'One pound here is roughly equivalent to one catty, about half a kilogram...that's about as much food as Jones has in a day. ’

If there are other non-staple foods, such as milk, fish, beef, etc., of course you can eat less staple food, but the Mojito family obviously does not have such luxury. If you only eat carbohydrates, the intake will be very scary.

This inexplicably gave Zhong Shenxiu a sense of déjà vu. He recalled that decades ago in his previous life, there were often rumors that someone would eat several large bowls of rice in one meal. Later, it gradually became less frequent. This was all because of the abundance of non-staple food and vegetables.

'It looks like Jones went to the dock to work as a coolie. After a day's work, he could barely make ends meet. If he gets injured and sick again, he will lose money...'

He shook his head secretly, and first asked the saleswoman Ms. Wesley for ten pounds of black bread. He looked at the two sisters beside him who were drooling at the small cakes in the glass window, and then said, "Add two honey cakes."

"Seventy cents total!"

Ms. Wesley obviously knew the family and gave Carmela and Jennifer a smile.

‘It’s really expensive. ’

Looking at the honey cake, which was only the size of a child's fist, Zhong Shenxiu cursed, but still paid for it under Jones' extremely sad eyes. He handed the two small cakes to his sisters who were full of surprises, and let Jones hold the cup filled with black bread. Paper bag, walking out of the bakery.

"Next is the pharmacy, no... There are no pharmacies here, only private clinics, and public hospitals with high fees... The real poor don't look down on doctors. At most, they go to the church hospital to queue up and listen to God's arrangements..."

Zhong Shenxiu recalled Scarface's condition. Although he felt that the other person was dead, some anti-inflammatory and anti-infective drugs were still needed.

"What medicine do you want to buy?"

Jones, who was next to him, heard Zhong Shenxiu's muttering and replied: "Those doctors charge very bad fees. Anyone here who gets sick has to lie at home for a few days and drink some broth at most... If you really need medicine, you can go to Bucktooth." Henry buys.”

Zhong Shenxiu remembered that Henry, the buck-toothed man, was a grocer. He was very wild in private and had some medicines on hand that he obtained through unknown channels.

Obviously, he has no business qualifications, but because it is cheap, many people still like to buy from him at small prices, and most of the transactions are one or two pieces.

In this regard, Zhong Shenxiu could only express his admiration for the other party's "Alchemy in the Flea" technique, but he could only be speechless.

Grocery store.

Buck-toothed Henry lives up to his name, with two protruding buck teeth. Seeing Zhong Shenxiu come in, a look of surprise appeared on his face: "Levi, is it you?!"

"Give me two anti-inflammatory pills."

Zhong Shenxiu handed over the one dollar note.

Henry looked around like a thief, then took out a small paper bag from under the counter and took out two white pills.

During the transaction, he lowered his voice: "I heard something happened to Old Sea Dog's goods last night, and he is looking for someone everywhere..."

"Thanks."

Zhong Shenxiu showed a bright smile, turned and left the grocery store.
