Chapter 343 God’s Gift

Then neither of them spoke, and the carriage fell into silence until it successfully arrived at Beresford Port.

"Sir! Beresford Port has arrived!"

The coachman's respectful voice came from outside the carriage. Eros, who was dozing with his eyes closed, hummed faintly after hearing this.

Then he looked at Irina.

Irina understood what Eros meant, and her body suddenly turned into a shadow, sinking into Eros's shadow.

Eros tidied his clothes, then got off the carriage with a natural look and came to this port, which is said to be the second largest trading port in Haidaram.

The port was built with funds from the Earl of Beresford family and was also named by their family.

The port was still bustling at five o'clock in the afternoon. Most of the people coming and going were porters and horse-drawn carriages carrying goods.

Eros took a look at his clothes that seemed out of place here, and after thinking about it, he walked into a nearby ready-made clothing store.

After changing into a less conspicuous outfit, Eros walked straight into Beresford Port without hesitation.

His purpose of coming here today was to find out about the Earl of Beresford.

Eros had heard of the major shareholder of the second largest shipping and shipbuilding group in Haidaram.

That was why Eros came to this Beresford Port.

Because he remembered that in an interview with the Earl of Beresford in the Haidaram Daily, it was said that the Earl spent most of his time working in the Ocean Group Building in this port.

Although I don't know whether it is true or not, it is better to have a purpose than to look for it aimlessly.

As for why he didn't go to the Earl of Beresford's house to inquire, it was because Beresford Port was closer.

Anyway, didn't the newspaper say that he spent most of the day at the port?

Eros asked someone where the office building of Sino-Ocean Group was, and then walked leisurely towards the office building.

But before he walked far, he was bumped by a little boy who was walking towards him with his head down.

Eros reached out to support the little boy and said with a smile:

"Are you not hurt?"

The boy shook his head hurriedly and said in a panic:

"I'm sorry, sir, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

Eros smiled: "I'm glad you're not hurt."

Then he let go of the hand holding the child.

Seeing this, the little boy quickly plunged into the crowd and disappeared.

In the corner of an alley in the distance, the little boy who had just bumped into Eros spread his palm with excitement.

The next second, a bright golden color came into his eyes.

Looking at the gold coin lying quietly in his palm, the boy was so excited that he almost cheered.

This was a gold coin worth one pound. When he grabbed it from the gentleman's pocket just now, he felt that the weight was a little wrong. Fortunately, he suppressed his excitement at that time and didn't show it.

Otherwise, it would be a disaster if he was discovered because of being too excited.

The boy pinched the gold coin in his hand and kissed the portrait of Caesar Augustine on the gold coin, which looked more and more handsome.

"Praise my Lord, my sister and I won't have to go hungry for the next few months."

"I finally have enough time to find some factories willing to recruit me."

"Sure enough, as long as you don't give up hope, life will always get better and better."

"Praise the merciful Lord, all these are the seeds of hope you sow, taking root and sprouting in the field of the soul, blooming gorgeous flowers, and fragrant our souls."

...

"All these are your gifts, allowing us to feel your transcendent existence in the hustle and bustle of this world, leading us to the sacred light."

The boy said words of praise, but there was no piety in his tone.

It seemed that the prayer of praise just now was just a response and a handover.

After carefully keeping the gold coin, the boy muttered:

"My mother once said that if you pray to God every day, your future life will be better and better."

"But I feel that I have fought for all these myself."

...

At the same time, Eros touched his pocket with a hole in it, sighed, and said with some regret:

"Since you still have a sister to support, I won't mind you tearing my clothes."

As he spoke, a gold coin appeared between his fingers like a magic trick.

He put the gold coin on his thumb, flicked his finger, and the gold coin flew diagonally into the sky and finally fell into a corner.

On the other side, the boy sewed the gold coin on the inside of his clothes and walked out with a brisk pace.

But he had just walked out of the alley a few steps before he walked back again.

The reason was that the bright gold at the corner of the alley was too eye-catching.

The boy quickly glanced around, and when he saw that there was no one nearby, he quickly picked up the gold coins on the ground.

Then he slapped himself, and looking at the clear fingerprints on his face, it was not difficult to guess that he had hit himself hard.

"What on earth is going on? Am I dreaming?"

"Could it be that the prayer just now really worked? Mom didn't lie to me?"

The boy muttered to himself in disbelief, and then he quickly put his hands together and began to pray in a low voice.

But this time he seemed particularly pious!

...

After putting the previous episode aside, Eros walked to the side of the office building of Sino-Ocean Group without stopping.

Just as Eros was about to sneak in through the power of shadow, Barbara's somewhat vigilant voice suddenly sounded in his mind:

"Something is wrong here!"

Eros paused, his eyes fixed, and hurriedly asked:

"Did you find anything?"

Barbara's crisp voice was a little dull and hummed:

"The speed of life passing of ordinary people here is abnormal, faster than the outside world!"

Hearing this, Eros said in a strange way:

"Isn't this normal? Work will absorb people's energy, not to mention this kind of physical work."

Barbara shook her head, her tone was still very solemn:

"In fact, since you just entered this When I arrived at the port, I noticed that the speed at which ordinary people's lives were fading was faster than in the outside world."

"It was just that the feeling was very slight at that time, and with the reason you just gave, I thought it was a normal phenomenon."

"But when I got to this building, I found another thing wrong."

"The vitality at the top of this building is a little too strong, it's as if all the vitality lost by ordinary people has gathered on the top of this building."

"This is definitely not a natural phenomenon, but a ritual formation, a large ritual formation covering the entire Beresford Port."
