Chapter 2064

The girl was small and wore a wrinkled dress, and her hair was thin and lackluster.

Her eyes are beautiful, but there is too much in them.

She begged as she looked at the neatly dressed bodyguards.

Besides her there was her mother, a poor woman who had not only been violated by the Penteos during the fall of Gefra.

Even the neighbors violated her, and her husband died in the previous war, which hit her hard and made her sick.

In addition to her, there are two younger brothers.

They also need food, but the two children are not very old. The elder brother is only seven years old, and the younger brother is only four years old. They can do nothing but take care of their sick mother.

The burden of the family's survival fell on her shoulders. She needed money not only because she hadn't eaten for two days, but her family also needed it.

As for the others?
dignity?

Under the pressure of hunger and survival, there is no place for dignity.

The girl reached out to touch the bodyguard, but the bodyguard took a step back. She stood there and looked at the bodyguard beggingly, "Please, three yuan is fine!"

She was disappointed when the bodyguard turned her down.

Now it seems that everything is going in a good direction, and there are places on the streets dedicated to distributing relief.

But receiving that thing requires a relief card!

Let’s not talk about whether the person who issued the relief card can ensure that every family gets a relief card, but there have been many people who specialize in robbing relief cards.

On the black market, a relief card can be sold for about [-] yuan, and each relief card can only be used for one month, which is not expensive.

Where did these relief cards come from?
Some were missed or not issued at all, and others were obtained through robbery or theft.

The girl’s family belongs to the former, and no one issued a relief card to her family. Maybe the person who issued the relief card saw that there were no adult men in their family.

A seriously ill woman with three children might die at any moment.

Of course, it's also possible that they didn't finish opening when they just came to hand out, and missed it.

The girl went to the person who issued the relief card, and the other party said that this month's card had already been issued, and there was no more.

Will have to wait for next month.

But without eating or drinking, can you survive until next month?
Such situations are actually not uncommon, and there are such situations throughout the island.

For those who have some rights in their hands, or those who dare to rob and steal, get 800 or [-] tickets, which is [-] yuan, and you will have a ticket to smuggle to the Federation.

In addition, the police station is closed now, and law and order are almost entirely maintained spontaneously. This place obviously looks like a world, but it is actually not much different from hell.

Lynch beckoned to the girl and asked to let her in.

In fact, she had seen Lynch a long time ago. She didn't know Lynch, but she knew what Lynch was wearing. She knew such a big man, and she couldn't afford to offend him.

She went to stop the bodyguard, but she was too hungry, maybe she missed this opportunity, and today she and her family will be hungry again.

Lynch simply asked, since July and August last year, she has taken the initiative to engage in skin and meat business.

It was her mother before, who could barely do it even though she was ill.

But as the temperature dropped, she got sicker and sicker and couldn't do anything, so she could only stand up.

She wasn't used to it at first, but eventually, she got used to it.

"Just close your eyes and everything will pass!"

This is what she said, simple, but revealing a kind of sadness and shock.

Lynch took out a business card, "You can go here and find a job, it can support your family."

Then gave another two dollars.

He didn't give more, because there were already many people around staring at it.

If she had twenty dollars or more in her hand, there was a good chance that half an hour later she would be a corpse floating in the sewage of Gafla's excellent sewers.

Killing people for tens of dollars is no longer impossible.

The girl knelt on the ground, holding her business card tightly. She knew that her fate might have changed at this moment.

Lynch is not soft-hearted, but he appreciates those who are strong.

Strong people who dare to challenge fate, why not give them more opportunities?

"It's a terrible situation on the streets right now, worse than what we know in the Commonwealth."

Besides him, there are other people around him.

The little earl, and a group of confidant nobles.

The little count's face was not very good-looking either, and this scene really made people feel a little ashamed.

"I'll start working on these things tomorrow."

Lynch asked back, "How do you solve it?"

The little count was stunned for a moment, stuck and didn't know how to answer.

He just said it out of habit, just like many people would say to solve it immediately when being held accountable. The question is how to solve it immediately?

If it can be solved immediately, why is there still a problem?

In fact, in the final analysis, it cannot be solved immediately, or even a little longer, so the problem will remain a problem.

The little earl didn't know how to answer, Lynch gave him some suggestions, "Let's straighten out the police system first, recruit some newbies, the supplies are available, and there is no shortage of money, let's maintain law and order."

A group of people walked on the street several times, and everyone's faces were not very good, especially at the relief point on the street.

Relief cards are sold almost openly. They cost 40 yuan each, and they can receive a two-pound piece of bread, a can of fish, and a can of kidney beans every day.

Some people also received more than a dozen copies at one time, and it seemed that they planned to split these things up and sell them separately.

At any time, those who are capable can always live better than others.

The little count gritted his teeth, and he swore that these people must pay the price.

In fact, the entire relief plan was the decision of the exiled government, that is, the new generation of aristocrats led by him.

In the words of those big nobles and old nobles, no matter how many untouchables die, they will all pop up in a short time, so don't care at all.

But the new generation of nobles spent a longer time with Lynch, and received more influence from the federal society and culture.

They feel that this should be able to buy public opinion.

After all, according to their ideas and designs, Gefra will eventually change from the current situation to a multi-party phenomenon.

By then, the parties established by these new generation nobles will naturally be able to gain more public opinion and support.

With the support of public opinion, the chances of winning the prime minister will be greater, and the future space will be wider.

But what I didn't expect was that it was a well-intentioned approach, but in exchange for such a result.

Needless to say, there are bound to be people who hate the planners along with it.

That's just how people are, they don't think it's unfair when everyone is hungry.

But when there are some people who can eat enough, they are still hungry.

They don't hate people who are fed, they hate masterminds who feed others, who forget themselves.

The closer you go to the palace, the more peaceful the street situation becomes.

At all times, there will be rich people.

Especially those who were in the smuggling business during the war.

These people are too fucking rich. When people outside are willing to sell their bodies for three yuan to fill their stomachs, people here have already eaten steak.

Occasionally, smuggled cars can be seen parked on the side of the road. The description on the road is extraordinarily decent, and there are even people sitting and drinking tea and pastries in the open-air cafe.

This is the eternal truth of the world. If someone is suffering, someone must be enjoying happiness.

After returning to the palace, Lynch and the little earl explained a few more words, and then let them leave.

The situation in Gefra is still quite tricky now. There are too many departments to be rebuilt, including the army.

Don't think about the navy for the time being, the army can be established first, and there are some rebel organizations that are willing to surrender, and they can rebuild the army after they are disbanded.

There are also groups with unclear attitudes, and these people are the source of trouble.

Just as she was thinking about something, Empress Feilin walked over in palace attire, "What's wrong with the little count?"

"He kept swearing as he walked out."

Speaking of this, Her Majesty the Empress is a little guilty.

Lynch looked up at her, "Maybe he has a hemorrhoid."

Obviously the Queen didn't believe this reason. After thinking about it for a while, Lynch decided to tell her the truth.

As a titular ruler, she can't live in a beautiful environment forever, and she will always encounter those terrible or real things.

From Lynch's simple narration, Her Majesty's fists were clenched, and her face was full of incredible anger!

But soon became discouraged again, she asked Lynch a little bit listlessly, "What can I do for them?"

Without waiting for Lynch to answer, she sighed, "I always feel that the emperor is not as good as an ordinary person."

"Ordinary people can always do something, but I can only be in a daze in the palace."

In fact, Lynch thought a little too much. During the period of occupation, she had seen many terrifying scenes through the high towers in the palace.

People died every day, and the Commander-in-Chief at the time probably did it to act as a deterrent.

He would often send a group of people to the square outside the palace to be shot. Whether those people were struggling or crying, they would eventually be hung up and killed.

Throw it into a cart like a dead animal, then pull it away and burn it.

Her Majesty the Queen, who saw this picture for the first time, cried all night and was so frightened that she couldn't sleep.

Facing the Queen's complaint about her own identity, Lynch shook her head slightly, "You are the spiritual pillar of people."

"God is illusory, but you are real, and you can give many people the courage to continue to live."

"Maybe our life is very simple and painful, but at least we are still alive. This is the greatest gift, my lord!"

Queen Feilin seemed to understand, she had some ideas, "I also want to set up a charity foundation, I want to do something for these people, what do you think?"

Lynch has no objection to this, it is nothing more than a little girl's game, "Of course, why not?"

After hearing this, Her Majesty really smiled, "Then it's settled!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"
