Nandu City was the former capital, where high-ranking officials and nobles from all dynasties gathered.

The east and south of the city are where wealthy businessmen and powerful people live.

Beggars are not allowed in these places. Firstly, it affects the appearance of the city, and secondly, if they offend the nobles, they will die.

Anyone who is somewhat familiar with the city of Nandu knows that beggars are only allowed in the west of the city where wealthy families live, and in the north of the city where ordinary people live.

However, when Huiyun and Huiming took a dozen female Taoist priests from Cihang Temple and wandered around the north of the city for half a day, they still couldn't find the little beggar they were looking for.

Even if there are some, they are carried by a group of big beggars, and there is most likely a blood relationship between the two.

It would be a waste of time to continue searching aimlessly.

Huiyun directly asked Huiming to take twenty copper coins and ask the beggars on the street.

"Hey, let me ask you something!"

Huiming first threw ten copper coins to the beggar.

The beggar looked at the copper coins in the bowl and said lazily:

"What do you want to ask? Tell me."

"Where are the little beggars in the city?"

The beggar looked her up and down.

Seeing Huiming wearing a Taoist robe, he was a little surprised:

"I thought it was a human trafficker, but it turned out to be a Taoist nun. What's the matter? Do you want to give alms to the little beggars?"

Huiming did not reveal his true purpose and nodded in agreement.

The beggar said:

"Then you're late. If you want to make a donation, go to the Charity Bureau! They search for little beggars in and around the city every few days. They just did a search yesterday!"

Huiming's family lived in the village when he was a child. After being sold, he worked as a laborer in Cihang Temple and didn't know much about what was happening in the city.

Hearing this, I sighed:

“The Salesian Bureau is quite dedicated and responsible.”

The beggar sneered when he heard this:

"Devote yourself to your duties? It's all hard-earned money, how can you not pay attention? If they don't work harder, they will be captured by the traffickers!"

Huiming then understood what was going on.

He returned to Huiyun in silence.

"How about it?"

Huiming told what he had learned.

Seeing her dignified expression, Huiyun gently touched the top of her head.

"Tomorrow we will select a group of people to help them escape from their suffering."

"Will you go tomorrow? Isn't it still early today?"

Huiming was puzzled.

Huiyun said:

"Today, I will go buy some daily necessities for the children. Tomorrow, after they have changed their clothes, I will go to the Salesian Bureau."

After all, with so many new people coming, the clothes, bedding, bowls and chopsticks in the Taoist temple will definitely not be enough, so you can buy them in advance.

More importantly, if the Salesian Bureau knew that they were recruiting people to open a Salesian church, they would definitely regard them as competitors.

If you want to buy someone, you will either be given a hard time or be charged a high price.

Since she was in charge of the temple's purchasing affairs, she would naturally not let the temple master be the scapegoat.

It would be best to change into secular clothes tomorrow so that the Charity Bureau cannot figure out my origins.

Huiming was thoughtful after hearing this:

"Thank you for your teachings, Senior Sister!"

Being able to explain everything to her in such a way that he could break it down into pieces, really meant that he was teaching her without holding back.

Huiming is not an ignorant person and he knows how rare such an opportunity is.

Huiyun smiled gently:

"Why thank me? The abbot asked you to stay with me so that I could teach you. Seeing that our Cihang Temple is getting bigger and bigger, we need more and more managers. The abbot values ​​you, so you have to work hard."

Huiming immediately forgot his previous depression and was greatly encouraged.

It turns out that the temple master has such high expectations for her. She must not let the master down and must grow up quickly!

*

After buying daily necessities, Huiyun returned to Cihang Temple. After dinner, she reported to Chen Qingzhu and apologized for her wasted trip and failure to complete the task.

Chen Qingzhu shook his head:

"You are very thoughtful, and this is the way it should be."

In this world, wherever there is a little profit to be squeezed, there will always be a few blood-sucking leeches.

They just want to do some good deeds and achieve their goals at the lowest possible cost, so why should they be suckers and give money to those people?
