They were the main force that opposed the training in the first place.They figured that if the children had the time and energy, they might as well help their family more.“Gosh, Cy, what’s the point of saying this now? Let the past go! The most important thing now is to find a way for us to survive so that everyone will not starve to death.” An old man stood up and said.“Yeah, Cy! You’re more experienced than us so don’t stoop to our level.”Cy sighed helplessly.He was just venting the resentment he had accumulated in his heart when he was young.Decades had passed and those ambitions had also been smoothed over by time.Indeed, it was useless to mention it again.“If we want to avoid starving to death, we must move out. As for the new location, you don’t have to worry. I have already found a place. It’s just that moving of thousands of people in the entire village will be relatively difficult. Everyone should go back and prepare well. We’ll leave in half a month.”Cy wave
Seven days later, Cy met his former friend Woodrow Pott at Village Pott.The other party was also an old man.When they first met, they were almost the same age.They had traveled together for quite some time, so their relationship was very good.Afterward, the two kept in touch for decades.In the beginning, Cy would take time to meet with Woodrow every year and catch up on old times.Therefore, Cy was relatively familiar with Village Pott.Then, Cy fell sick, and as he got older, it was difficult to move around, so he stopped visiting.At that time, both of them had great ambitions.However, it was a pity that they all lost to reality in the end.All of this could be summed up in one sentence.You might have great dreams, but sometimes you could only enjoy harsh realities.“Cy, you haven’t come to see me for twenty years, right? If you still hadn’t come, I would have been dead the next time you visited,” Woodrow sighed.“I’m here now, right? To be precise, it should have
Peach wondered, ‘Didn’t we come to Village Pott for help?‘Why are we discussing my marriage?’Peach did not want to get married. If she did, she would marry a man of indomitable spirit.Just like…At this moment, the image of the young man in the cellar of her home appeared in Peach’s mind.After shaking her head to get rid of the image in her mind, Peach objected, “Grandpa! What are you talking about? I won’t get married! I will always be by your side to take care of you.”“Silly girl, I will be dead sooner or later. After that, a girl like you must find a man, otherwise, it will be difficult to survive,” Cy persuaded.This was also a concern of his.Peach’s conditions were tip-top, however, Cy knew that her granddaughter also had high standards.There was no man of similar age in Village Pescado who did not like Peach.As Peach grew up over the past two years, countless people had proposed marriage to her.However, she did not like any of them.There was nothing Cy could
Cy told Woodrow all the troubles Village Pescado encountered.However, he did not say why Lake Pescado suddenly ran out of fish, nor did he tell Woodrow that he saved a young man in Lake Pescado.He just told him Village Pescado would run out of food soon and if they could not find a way, thousands of people would go hungry.After listening to Cy’s story, Woodrow did not answer immediately, but instead, fell into silence.This was not something within his power.There were thousands of people in Village Pescado, young and old, and they would need a huge amount of food every day.There were indeed many wealthy gentries in Village Pott who could help Village Pescado, but Woodrow was not among them.If Woodrow was living in an ordinary small village, he would probably be shocked by what Cy said.However, Woodrow remained calm.After all, he was living in a large village with nearly 300 thousand people.Although it was called a village, it was actually equivalent to a small count
Woodrow could only be regarded as middle-class in Village Pott, so he was not qualified to introduce Cy to the village chief.After hearing what Woodrow said, Cy and Peach’s hearts sank.If they could not solve the village’s problem this time, thousands of people in Village Pescado would go hungry in a month.“Woody, is there really nothing we can do?” Cy asked, still holding onto the last glimmer of hope.Woodrow thought for a while and said, “It’s not that there is nothing we can do. My grandson Maverick is now hanging out with the son of the village chiefs, so perhaps there is a way to introduce you to him., As long as you can persuade the village chief’s son, you can solve your problem easily.”When Cy heard this, he stood up excitedly and asked quickly, “Really?”“Of course! Cy, please sit down. How would I dare to lie to you about such a thing?”“Woody, what is your grandson’s name again? Where is he? Can I meet him?” Cy asked impatiently.Since this concerned the livelih
Village Pott was huge.The village, which could accommodate nearly 300 thousand people, was much larger than the average small county on Earth.Since there were no modern communication facilities on Planet Gorgon, they would have specialized personnel to deliver information.They were called messengers, and they needed to walk around every corner of Village Pott.If one was curious about which persons was most familiar with Village Pott, it would undoubtedly be the messengers.Woodrow paid some money and asked a messenger to bring a message to his grandson Maverick as soon as possible.At this time, Maverick was accompanying Jagger, the village chief’s son, watching a play in a place called Nightly Desires.Although Nightly Desires had the name desire in its name, the women here were performers and not prostitutes.The women here were also among the top in Village Pott.As the village chief’s son, Jagger would only go to the best place.Otherwise, it would be inconsistent wit
The real distinguished guests were all in the private rooms upstairs where they could also get a nice view of the performance on stage.The environment they were in would be countless times better than the crowded areas.In one of the private rooms, a young man was staring at Jade on the stage with his eyes wide open.He was Jagger, the younger chief of Village Pott, and also a frequent visitor to Nightly Desires.He had visited Nightly Desires many times before but this was the first time Jagger had shown such excitement.The woman on the stage was his cup of tea, whether it was her voice, appearance, or figure.Although she was wearing a veil and Jagger could not see her face clearly, her slim waist, her clear and lovely voice, and the mole between her eyebrows fascinated Jagger.The audience was right.Compared with Jade, the other women in Nightly Desires were nothing and they could not pique any interest in him.“Master Jagger, that girl is a fairy from the sky and she mu
“Master Jagger! Since you can’t use force on Miss Jade, you can make her follow you willingly. Then even if your uncle finds out, he can’t do anything to you. After all, none of you are married and you’ve consented. So, no one can say anything about it!” Maverick suggested after coming back to his senses.“But how can we get Miss Jade to come to me on her free will? We don’t know each other! Besides, she is from a big city, and she is not an ignorant little girl. Although I am Village Pott’s younger chief, I only have power in this small piece of land.” Jagger asked distressingly.He was really fascinated by Miss Jade.Until now, he had never wanted to have a woman so much.However, since he could become a young chief, Jagger was no idiot either.He was self-aware.Jade was from the big city, so she must have met a lot of dignitaries.If he were Village Pott’s village chief, he might be able to impress her.The position of the younger chief sounded scary, but he actually did no
