Chapter 147 Boy Feng Yuxuan
Those who worked on the city wall were basically strong and powerful adult men.
But Jingtian saw a very thin figure who was working hard to move a large stone.
Because the thin figure was bending over to move stones, his face could not be seen from the angle of the drone.
But judging from his body shape, he is definitely a child, and a bald child at that.
Jingtian observed for a while and found that although the child's movements were a little slow, he never stopped.
Amazing strength and stamina!
He can actually keep up with the pace of other workers.
"What the hell!! No, drone?"
The drone stayed there for a little longer and was eventually discovered by the supervisor on the city wall.
When the supervisor shouted, the workers around stopped working and looked up, following the supervisor's lead.
A year ago, drones were a relatively common sight.
But seeing drones now is really novel.
Many workers were stunned and unable to recover.
The little kid also stopped and took a look.
Only then did Jingtian really see the appearance of the figure.
It's definitely a child.
Although his face is covered in dirt, one can tell from his facial features that he should be a handsome little boy. His exact age cannot be determined for the time being.
"You are so young, why do you come here to work?"
Jingtian asked the little boy directly through the drone.
Although in the last days, there are many children who have lost the care of their loved ones.
However, any stronghold still provides certain preferential treatment for children.
Older ones can do what they can.
If a child , he or she will be given some food to sustain himself or herself every day.
So it is indeed not normal for a child of this age to do hard labor.
The little boy was visibly stunned when he heard the sound of the drone.
"Xiaoxuan, this gentleman is asking you a question."
Seeing the little boy standing there without answering, a worker nearby reminded the boy.
"I need to earn money to buy medicine for my father's treatment."
After the child came to his senses, he looked directly at the drone and spoke in a childish but firm voice.
When the boy opened his mouth, he didn't show any sign of stage fright at all, which surprised Jingtian again.
This little boy has a strong personality and should be a strong and filial child.
Jingtian became more interested in the boy, and continued to ask in a slightly gentler tone; "How much money can you make here every day at such a young age?"
"4 grams of gold a day." The boy said seriously.
"Four grams?"
Jingtian raised his eyebrows.
Jingtian learned about it from Zhang Jian during yesterday's transaction.
The workers who built the city wall were given 10 grams of gold beads every day.
These gold beads come in different sizes. The ones that are generally circulated are small, and a gold bead weighing one gram is more common.
The little boy didn’t know whether Jingtian could see it or not, so he nodded seriously.
"Then do you know that others have 6 grams more than you?" Jingtian asked again.
"I know. Because I'm still young, I've done less than my uncles, so it's fair that I get less."
The little boy nodded seriously and spoke clearly.
Jingtian raised his eyebrows again, thinking that the little boy didn't know that his wages were deducted.
"Are you the one who moved the grain business?"
At this time, the supervisor on the side thought of something and asked the drone with a hint of caution.
Jingtian turned the camera and paid attention to the supervisor.
He didn't carry a gun, so he must be a lower-level psychic.
Jingtian hummed and showed no interest in talking to the supervisor.
He turned to the little boy again and asked, "How much does your father's illness cost? How long will it take to earn enough money for the medicine?"
"It costs 80 grams of gold to buy anti-inflammatory drugs. I have already saved 50 grams. It will only take 8 days to make them."
The boy, who had been speaking crisply until now, became somewhat dull when he spoke the last sentence.
A patient waits for eight days for medicine to be treated, and no one knows whether the patient can hold on.
The little boy obviously understood this, so he felt a little sad at the end.
Jingtian truly felt the boy's feelings and was completely moved with sympathy.
Although there are many such things in the apocalypse, Jingtian cannot take care of them all.
But since he had encountered it, Jingtian would not pretend not to see it.
Although the situations were different, Jingtian still saw a trace of his past self in this boy.
After Jingtian pondered for a few seconds, he said to the boy, "You heard it too. I'm from the mobile grain merchant down there. If you go there to help sell the goods, I'll give you 10 grams of gold a day and a full meal. Are you willing?"
Jingtian did not choose to give the boy the gift directly, but used another method.
The little boy was obviously stunned for a moment, then nodded vigorously.
Jingtian smiled. It was obvious that he was overthinking it, thinking that the boy would refuse because of his personality!
"Go ahead and find them down there. I'll let them know... By the way, what's your name?"
"Thank you, uncle. My name is Feng Yuxuan and I am nine years old." The boy answered Jingtian very politely.
"Feng Yuxuan? What a good name!"
Jingtian praised, and then the drone flew directly to the stall.
As the drone appeared above the stall, it naturally attracted a burst of exclamations.
"Wow, Master, how come there is this drone?"
As soon as Tong Yue saw the drone, she exclaimed.
Tong Yue and Wang Lian naturally recognized that this drone was the one that had been destroyed, not the one on the Ares.
"Oh my gosh! Drone? This is a rare thing!" Zhang Jian also exclaimed.
Yu Wenshang was slightly better, as he had seen the drones on the God of War.
There was also Liu Changshui, who squinted his still swollen eyes with a look of surprise and admiration.
"Don't be curious about these things. After these supplies are sold out, we will take a break today." Jingtian said.
"Fuck, it can also pass messages, it's really a great thing!"
Zhang Jiancai realized that drones could also transmit messages.
"You're not surprised by what you've seen, bro. I have a lot of good stuff here, just hang out with me."
Seeing Zhang Jian so surprised, Jingtian immediately felt proud.
