Yes, their lives are too hard. In such a chaotic era, it is too difficult and dangerous for a woman to find a job, not to mention she is good-looking and has a child.

Taking care of her children at home seems to have been her best choice since having her children.

However, the man with no ability or knowledge only found a part-time job in the shipyard after all the hard work. Day after day, he worked hard and earned a meager salary to support his family. My wife and children can survive in this seemingly good country.

He is very honest, but very hard-working. He often looks down when doing odd jobs. He goes to a few old workers in the shipyard who have bad tempers and often bully others but do have some skills to learn how to make the hull stronger and how to design the ship better. A suitable way to go to sea.

Whenever he went over to ask for advice nonchalantly after being insulted, the old workers would smile and teach him a few tricks, and he was satisfied.

He was so ambitious that he wanted to learn a skill and make a lot of money.

His ambitions are also very small, so small that he only does these things so that his wife and children can live a better life, and for a small family.

Therefore, the man would bring his wife to the Androser Kingdom, one of the most economically developed countries in the West Sea, to seek opportunities to make a fortune. Unfortunately, things are fickle and this country is not as good as he imagined.

Here he was severely oppressed and bullied.

There was even an accident at the shipyard not long ago. A pillar as thick as a human waist fell down and hit his leg. As a result, the man could no longer stand for a long time and could no longer continue working. .

Not only that, the profit-seeking shipyard owner saw that he came from a foreign country alone and had no one to rely on, so he put most of the responsibility for the accident on him. The moon is gone too.

"Ugh."

After glancing at his depressed wife, the man raised his head, his eyes fell on their sleeping child, and then he sighed deeply.

His eyes were full of guilt. He wanted his wife to live a better life and enjoy life, but he didn't expect that it would drag her down instead.

The girl who was originally youthful and lively, with eyes full of longing for the future, is now weighed down by life and is left with only sorrow, frowns and sighs from time to time.

"I've really worked hard on you all these years. Following me has made you suffer so much."

The man's face was full of gentleness: "Let's go, I just can't afford the rent for this house. Let's go home, go back to our hometown, and start our life again."

After losing the source of funds from their jobs, the three of them lived in even greater poverty. They could not even pay the rent of this dilapidated house. In a few days, they would be evicted. From then on, they would either sleep on the street, survive by picking up garbage, or In which corner will you die quietly.

Either leave the country and go back to your hometown.

Even at this moment, leaving was not his choice, but his only choice.

In fact, the man has learned many skills from the veteran workers in the shipyard. After a while, he is confident that he will be fully qualified for the job of a shipwright. From a casual worker to a hired shipwright, he will be able to earn more by then. More money improves life.

Unfortunately, there is no other source of income to support him until that time.

Fate is sometimes very cruel. It makes people see hope, but makes hope out of reach.

After leaving the shipyard and returning home to recuperate, the man often tossed and turned on the stone bed at night. He thought about many bad things, but in the end the good education he received since childhood woke him up and gave up those thoughts that should not have occurred.

He also remembered that when he was at the shipyard, he heard from his fellow odd-jobbers that there was a righteous thief in the Kingdom of Androser who often stole money from profiteers and helped those who could not survive. His existence had made the odd-jobbers nervous. I have always been full of hope, hoping that I would be the one being rescued.

Of course, such hope seems immoral to men, because they can obviously survive on their own.

But now, he thought more than once, isn't he the one who can't live a good life?

As for the righteous thief, why don't you come out and help yourself.

Just once.

At this time.

There was a knock on the door outside the house that had been closed all the time. The man raised his head and looked at his wife. Although he was confused as to why someone would come to him, he gritted his teeth and stood up and limped open the door.

There were three security army soldiers standing outside the door, gathered around the door.

Through the gap between the bodies of the three soldiers in front of him, the man looked further away, and was surprised to find that many security forces soldiers had appeared on the street at some point. They were in front of each household's door or inside their house. What is recorded on the paper book?

When the soldier at the front saw the man opening the door, he impatiently tapped the paper in his hand with a pen and said loudly: "The commander of the security army has an order to count and record all the people who have settled in the Eastern Military Region. Must accept inspection of home.”

"Sir, I'm afraid we won't be able to live here much longer, do we have to be inspected?" When he thought that he would be kicked out in a few days and would no longer live here, he asked more questions.

"There are so many words. If you are asked to accept the inspection, all you have to do is cooperate."

"As long as you rent a house here and live for a day, you will have to undergo our inspection even if you stay for a second. Why, don't you want to know if there is someone hiding in the house?"

The three soldiers immediately became vigilant and raised their knives one after another, pointing the tip of the knife at the man, as if they would execute him on the spot if the situation went wrong.

The man had never seen this scene before. He turned pale with fright and immediately replied: "Sir, I misunderstood. There are only three of me and my family in the house. I am not hiding anyone else."

He was afraid that the other party would not believe him, so he quickly got out of the way, allowing the three soldiers outside the door to see what was going on in the room.

The interior space of the house is very small and can be seen at a glance. There is not much furniture and there is no place to hide people.

After the three of them tentatively entered the house and made sure that the people in the house were not aggressive and safe and put away their knives, the man felt relieved.

"When you receive inspections in the future, cooperate honestly and don't ask so many questions to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings."

"Life, age, work..."

At first, the soldier holding the paper unhappily pulled a stool and sat down, recording the detailed information of the three people in the man's family in a question-and-answer manner.

Two soldiers outside were looking around the room, rummaging through some daily necessities from time to time, not knowing what they were looking for. The young woman hugged her child and huddled in the corner with her head lowered in fear, not daring to look at the soldiers.

The security forces had a bad reputation in the city, and as people at the bottom, they couldn't afford to offend them.

After more than ten minutes, I made some inquiries to the three men. Seeing that there were no major problems, I left his house and headed to the next place.

Before leaving, the two people who were rummaging around talked in a low voice with the soldier who was recording the book, and the man clearly heard it in his ears.

"He's a poor guy again. He has no oil or water at all. He really can't do this job anymore."

After the other party left, the man immediately closed the door. Although he didn't know what happened and dispatched so many security forces to patrol and record the residents' information, he had the idea that the people would not fight with the soldiers, so he cooperated well from the beginning to the end.

Those last words didn't make the man angry. He just laughed at himself secretly, thinking that I was about to be kicked out. You still want to come to my place to get money and water, so you might as well scrape some oil from me and take it away.

The gap between people is so big. Some people are picky, while some people just want to live well.
