Chapter 1376 Section 10. A Day in the Life of Palin

The work of cleaners is easy and tiring.

They have to ensure that the entire street is free of dirt, debris, and snow. In addition to cleaning, they have to get up before dawn to earn extra money.

Fortunately, the Golden Palace has issued a new law - but they say this is not a law, but a regulation.

The "regulation" requires them to be good citizens, such as not being allowed to steal, such as keeping clean, not being allowed to fight in groups, and paying attention to hygiene.

The days when bastards defecated in the corners and alleys are gone forever.

But how can they bear not to spit and blow their noses? But after the news that someone violated the rules and was eaten by a passing dragon, they would rather swallow their snot and wipe it on their clothes than spit on the ground.

It seems that life has become more troublesome, but no one complains - because spitting and defecating are not allowed, they don't have to avoid the alleys full of disgusting yellow-brown icicles and black solids. They are not allowed to fight in groups, so they don't have to worry about being harassed by gangsters. Paying attention to hygiene in the winter is indeed a bit of torture, but soon they found that their scalps are no longer itchy, their bodies are no longer red, and their children are no longer sick.

Most importantly, they no longer have to pay heavy taxes.

In the past, they had to pay taxes to the great lords who they had never met but claimed to be their masters, pay taxes to the lords, bribe officials, and be extorted by gangs. After layers of exploitation, a silver coin earned with hard work can't even get 10 copper coins.

Now, the poor not only don't have to pay taxes, but will also be helped to get through this winter.

Who still says that the blue dragon is an evil dragon? Even if it is an evil dragon, what's wrong? Let alone an evil dragon, even if it is a ratman, as long as it can make them live a good life, they will go to learn the ratman language tomorrow!

Among them, Palin, who can earn a lot of tips every day, lives a more fulfilling life.

Because he has a wife.

Gna, the widow introduced by the neighbor. Her husband died in the mines, just like Palin's father and brothers.

Palin thought he was lucky, but Gna thought he was the luckiest person. If it weren't for the new life brought by Liberty City, a helpless woman would only be reduced to being a prostitute.

So Gna has always been very attentive. She would get out of the warm bed before Palin woke up, put his clothes by the stove in advance to warm them up, and then prepare a hot breakfast. She would also help Palin take off his bloated coat after he came back, wash his dirty clothes, and count what he bought today.

And her favorite thing to do is to listen to Palin talk about the thrills of cleaning the blue dragon and the funny things when collecting dragon feces while cooking.

That day, Palin returned home, and Gna helped him take off his coat, prepared dinner, and then hugged each other to sleep.

Late at night, the man next to him suddenly shouted and woke up.

"What's wrong?"

Gna, who was awakened, hurriedly cared about her husband.

Palin said he had a nightmare, dreaming that everything he had now was just a dying fantasy of a man frozen on the roadside...

"It's okay, everything is over..." Gena patted Palin's back and comforted him like coaxing a child.

"Go back to sleep, you have to get up early tomorrow."

"No, Lord Wilson gave us a day off... Gena, do you want to go out for a walk?"

"Walk...walk?"

"Yeah, walk."

The word "shopping" has never belonged to Gena.

She was only twenty years old, but she had been bent by the years, as old as those women who had given birth to two or three children.

So much so that the next morning, looking at Palin's urging, she acted a little at a loss.

After taking out the clothes that had been washed white for a long time in the closet, Gena followed Palin out.

Palin didn't know where to go. The Golden City was very large, but his range of activities had always been limited to a few nearby streets.

Unconsciously, they came to the Fortune Church. When passing by the gate, Palin could not help chanting: "Praise Annan..."

"Praise Annan." Ge Na followed the prayer.

Continuing forward, the couple saw a street that was being renovated in the cold winter, and everything looked brand new.

Palin vaguely remembered that Lord Annan was going to build a commercial street in the Golden City, and in the future, the Golden City would also have any new things from the outside.

The commercial street was full of decoration and construction, except for the theater.

Exquisite huge posters were displayed side by side, and there was a long queue in front of the door.

He heard passers-by nearby say that the theater was showing magic images. Usually, a ticket cost several silver coins, but on Saturdays and Sundays, it cost "only" one silver coin.

"These paintings are really big..."

Seeing his wife looking up and looking at the posters with longing, Palin suddenly pulled her into the team.

"Palin, what are you doing?"

"Let's watch it too."

No mistakes, one post, one content, one book, one bar, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar, one look!

In the past, Palin would never dare to spend the money that could buy half a bag of coal to watch a magic movie - even the old woman who wandered outside the tavern soliciting customers only charged 50 copper coins per time.

But now, Palin understood a word that he didn't understand before: romance.

Gna didn't want to waste money, but there were people around, so she had to accommodate her husband.

It was the first time for both of them. Ten minutes ago, they didn't even know what a magic movie was.

After getting the tickets, the two Muggles had to follow the crowd stiffly and find their seats in the reminder.

Palin tried his best to make it look like this was not his first time here, but the sweat on his forehead betrayed him. Fortunately, no one was here to see other audiences.

Sitting in his seat, Palin breathed a sigh of relief. Gna, who was standing next to him, came over and whispered in a low voice: "There are people everywhere here..."

At this time, the curtain on the stage lit up.

The noisy sound in the theater quickly disappeared, and hundreds of eyes looked at the three people who appeared on the screen.

They were three merchants, and they were going to cross a dangerous jungle with a car of gold nars.

The first merchant chose to hire a guard, but was harassed by endless thieves and robbers and lost all his money.

The second merchant chose to use a magic ring to carry the gold nars, but was ordered by the greedy robbers to strip him naked. He found the hidden ring and lost all his money.

The third merchant went to the savings bank before leaving and exchanged all his gold nars for deposit certificates. He was also robbed of his deposit certificates, but he was not in a hurry at all.

The scene changed, and the thief was holding the deposit slip, scratching his head because he didn't have the password, while the third businessman easily confirmed his identity in another bank and got back all his money.

[Bank, one of the greatest inventions of the second millennium of the Saint Laurent calendar, will soon open in various commercial streets]

The scene faded and the curtain returned to its original state.

The audience, which had been silent for three minutes, suddenly burst into a noisy discussion, discussing the scene just now.

Genna said distressedly: "We just spent two silver coins? God..."

As soon as the voice fell, the magic light on the ceiling of the theater gradually dimmed, and the blue planet logo to the new world appeared on the curtain.

The magic image has just begun.
