Chapter 1662 The Price of Kindness (Ready to Fly)

Fangzheng took Maine out of the temple, came to the hotel, and then called the priestess and the others together, and told them about the orphanage in the temple. After hearing Fang Zheng's description, the priestess was quite surprised.

"Is the environment there so bad?"

"I remember that you also seem to be from an orphanage? How is the environment over there?"

"this………"

Faced with Fang Zheng's question, Priestess was somewhat embarrassed.

"Although life is very poor, everyone can accept it... But no matter what, it's impossible for this kind of thing to happen..."

"What are you waiting for!?"

Huihui couldn't sit still for a long time, and now she just jumped up and ran to the door.

"Let's go over there and rescue those children, and then blow up that shrine that cares nothing about human life! It just so happens that I haven't cast the explosion magic today, just give it to me..."

"Give me a break."

Fangzheng had quick eyesight, grabbed Huihui by the collar and pushed her back on the chair. In fact, he was not surprised by this situation. As I said before, the temples of the priestesses and the others are all covered by bosses. In other words, these temples have donations from believers, so they can naturally be maintained.

But the temple where Maine is located is just a political institution, and there are no gods who can really believe in it, so naturally there will be no donations from believers. As a matter of fact, Fangzheng used the "October" to investigate on the way back just now. The funds of this temple were all allocated by the lord and donated by the nobles. To put it bluntly, there is no free income, and it is completely dependent on financial allocations.

Moreover, a large amount of funds was embezzled by the head of the temple... In this case, it is a miracle that the children in the orphanage can survive.

Thinking of this, Fangzheng looked at Maine. At this moment, Mei Yin's small face is still extremely pale, which is also normal. To be honest, even a gentle person like the Priestess, and a chubby patient like Hui Hui, may be surprised and indignant at this scene, but they can understand and accept it. After all, they live in such a world. Even if they haven't seen similar things, they have probably heard a lot of them.

But Mei Yin was different. After she was reborn into this world, although she lived in a bit of poverty, it was also extremely inconvenient. But no matter how you grit your teeth, you can live on. Although the civilization in the Middle Ages is indeed not very developed, at least you have the necessities of life. In any case, it is much better than survival on a deserted island.

But living habits can be changed, but the three views are not so easy to change easily.

For Maine, who lives in a stable and peaceful modern society with plenty of food and clothing, the scene in the orphanage almost left a psychological shadow on her.

It would be an exaggeration to say that the Three Views are completely broken, but it is about the same.

"I can save them, of course it's no problem."

Fang Zheng spoke.

"But Maine, what's next?"

"Hey?"

"I rescued them, yes. I can also arrange them to live in the manor... in the castle, no problem. And then? We don't know how many people are in the orphanage yet, even if it is calculated on the basis of thirty people Well, how many resources do 30 children need to eat, drink, and scatter every day? Where does the money come from? How do you plan to raise them? How does the manor turn around? Don’t you think that I am the Red Cross Charity Federation here, only asking for giving and not getting anything in return Bar."

"I……………"

Hearing Fangzheng's question, Maine seemed to have just realized it, and bit her lip involuntarily.

So, students, you are naive. This kind of people need to be beaten by the society before they can understand that kindness is not justice, let alone cost-free. It is a good thing to be kind to others, but you must also consider your own abilities. Otherwise, it's just asking for trouble.

With so many cursed children raised by Fang Zheng, they also need to rely on resources from other worlds to live their current lives. However, even so, Fangzheng did not say that he would support them for a lifetime, but encouraged them to start self-reliance.

"Also, these are not the only orphans. Now that we have accepted them, what about in the future? There are endless orphans. It is impossible for you to say that if you have them this year, they will disappear next year. What should we do by then? Also, If you do this, it is tantamount to robbing the business of the temple, have you ever thought about how the temple will react? How do you solve these problems?"

"I……………"

Hearing Fangzheng's series of questioning, not only was Mei Yin speechless, even Huihui quietly shut up.

Rescuing a kitten is indeed a matter of love, but love requires action. A kitten that has not been weaned needs to be fed every few hours every night, and its excretion should also be paid attention to. It can be said that it is easier to go than taking care of a baby. But this is the beginning, you have to adopt it, you have to take care of it, it takes time, energy, and money.

After all, cats need to eat, and they need to see a doctor when they are sick, and all of these need money.

The person who stopped the car to save the dog thought he was just and kind, but after seeing the list of medical expenses for hundreds of dogs, he ran away without even seeing his shadow.

After all, kindness and justice are only a temporary pleasure, but the money spent is long-term.

Not to mention, people are much more troublesome than cats and dogs.

"This is the homework I left for you. Today I'm going to the castle to supervise the maintenance. You can tell me the answer after I come back."

Having said this, Fangzheng stood up and glanced at Maine.

"Better hurry up, you know those kids won't last long."

Fangzheng wasn't really cruel, but he also knew very well that many things could not be done with a passion. As for the orphanage, he asked Priestess, Ai Si and Huihui to send some food over— — as a donation. But for now, Fangzheng can only do so much.

After arranging the affairs here, Fangzheng returned to the old castle again and became a... supervisor.

"If only workers all over the world were so obedient."

Seeing the magic servants busy in and out of the castle, Fang Zheng also whistled. The castle is good, but it needs extensive repairs and renovations, and even an increase in energy supply. Things like water and water need to be done well, even with an engineering team, it will take several months to complete.

But as a mage, Fang Zheng has his own method.

Just summon the magic servant directly!

No food, no drink, no sleep, no fatigue, no fear of danger, this is simply the best labor guarantee for capitalists!

For the sake of caution, all the materials used here are not from the Tiandao Palace, but things that Fangzheng picked up from his previous travels in other worlds. He does not even plan to connect this place to the Tiandao Palace to avoid the spread of chaos in various forms go. In fact, only the personal terminal in Fangzheng's hands can contact Tiandao Palace at present, and the personal terminal in Mei Yin's hands can only communicate with him, but cannot retrieve the network information of Tiandao Palace.

With the help of this kind of magic servant who is not afraid of hardships or tiredness, the repair work of the ancient castle will naturally be over within a few days. Not only is it faster than the decoration team, but the quality is also better than that of the decoration team... Well, if Fang Zheng Now that I go back to my own world to be a contractor, I am afraid that the construction market will be directly squeezed and collapsed.

After all, magic servants don’t need money!

After confirming that everything was in place, Fangzheng returned to the city. At the same time, he also got the "homework" that Maine gave him.

"Is that what you think?"

Flipping through the "homework" in front of him, Fangzheng raised his head and glanced at Maine.

Judging from the homework itself, Maine has indeed considered these issues. For example, in terms of funds—there is no child labor protection law in this world, and children must go to work after they are baptized at the age of seven. And Maine's idea is to use the manor to build a papermaking workshop to improve the world's papermaking industry, but...

"Why paper?"

Fangzheng clicked on the "homework" in his hand, and looked at Mei Yin, which made Mei Yin a little nervous. For some reason, it reminded her instinctively of the fear she felt when she was defending graduation...

"Because, because paper is relatively expensive in this world, and the quality is not very good, ordinary people can't afford it at all, and naturally they can't afford books, so I want to promote the paper industry so that everyone can read books!"

"Good reason."

Fangzheng recalled it carefully. He didn't care about the papermaking situation in this world, but when he thought about it, he realized that the quality of the paper commissioned by the Adventurer's Association was indeed not very good.

"However, you should understand that making paper is not an easy task, and it will also conflict with the existing industry. Have you considered solving this problem? Also, do you have the technology to make paper?"

"I have a cooperative relationship with a chamber of commerce, and they are willing to help me deal with this problem. As for the technology of papermaking... I have read it in books before, as long as I can find some information, it should be no problem!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Fangzheng looked at Maine.

"Are you related to the Chamber of Commerce?"

"Yes, I used to coincidentally sell them shampoo formulas, and head accessories... and I made some money because of it."

"I see."

Hearing Maine's answer, Fangzheng nodded. A girl is a girl, even if it is a time traveler. Fangzheng thought about it, and found that in the online articles he had read, there were very few protagonists who started out as shampoo... I have to say, this is really a blind spot .

After all, the average time traveler is male, who would pay attention to things like shampoo and hair accessories!

Even Fangzheng himself didn't care about it when he was in the main world.

"So what you mean is to reach a partnership with that chamber of commerce, and then let children who meet the age to make paper to make money... Well, it's also a way, what else?"

"If possible, I hope that Miss Aisi and the others can help train some of the children to become adventurers... Anyway, I can protect myself to some extent. Also, I can also ask my sister and friends to take these children Go to the forest and learn to pick fruit and hunt, at least in this way, even if they can't buy food, they won't starve to death."

"As far as you are concerned, it is quite thoughtful."

Fang Zheng put together his homework and nodded. Seeing Fangzheng's expression, Maine also relaxed a little.

But Fangzheng's next sentence directly confuses Maine.

"However, you still think too simply."

"Hey?"

Looking at the bewildered Mei Yin, Fangzheng shook his head. A student is a student, and she doesn't know what she means by doing so. Reducing the cost of papermaking means that the circulation of knowledge is greatly enhanced, and the circulation of knowledge is enhanced, and the idea of ​​nobles mastering knowledge themselves and preventing commoners from contacting it is conflicting.

Just look at the United States. Although in the United States, many people can go to college, but those who can really go to a good university are the rich and political elites. Even if most people go to college, they can only go to community colleges. Some people don't even understand the four arithmetic operations after graduation. With this level of education, it is naturally impossible to do high-level work.

As for the joy of learning, it is basically to deceive the common people. Any child of a high-level elite has received a cramming education since he was a child, which is not fundamentally different from the majority of Chinese college entrance examination candidates. In other words, the majority of Chinese college entrance examination candidates enjoy the American aristocratic elite education model.

What quality education, happy learning, is used to fool ordinary people.

After all, as long as you fall behind at the starting line, you will only be worthy of being a slave for the rest of your life. It is your business that you are willing to study happily. It is also your business that you cannot find a job that meets the requirements when you grow up. It is your business that you have no choice but to sweep the streets.

This is the same as in this world, only nobles can learn to read and write, and ordinary people can't write at all.

Even if all beings are equal, if you are illiterate, you cannot be allowed to do the work of a literate person.

So you can only be a slave.

This is the invisible gully, which is much crueler than the so-called radish recruitment. For the nobles, it is obviously more conducive to ruling that most people are illiterate. And Maine hopes that more people will read books and understand the charm of books. To put it bluntly, it is to eliminate illiteracy... This is obviously contrary to the ideas of nobles.

But this is also good, the circulation of knowledge is conducive to the development of order, and for Fangzheng, it is even more beneficial than harmful. As for trivial matters like whether it would shake the world's ruling class, he didn't care at all. Besides, as a traveler, if you come to a world, if you don't turn this world upside down, then you will be sorry for your identity, right? Since Maine has this idea, let her do it. Anyway, if something happens, I will watch it myself.

"Go ahead and think about it, this is the next homework."

Looking at the bewildered and puzzled Maine, Fangzheng shrugged his shoulders.

"Next, inform everyone that the castle has been renovated and is ready for occupancy."
