Irdele ordered a glass of expensive wine for the woman. After paying everyone's bill, Irdele left the bar.
As soon as he came out, he was almost hit by a cart full of huge goods. These working people at the bottom were vulgar and hard working. That person scolded Irdele for not paying attention and continued to push his cart to do his work. Irdele did not lower himself to that person's level. Recently, he often went alone to the place where the real bottom people lived to experience life. He knew that the person who did the heavy physical work might be the only source of income for that low-income family.
The huge gap between the rich and the poor was constantly playing out in this seemingly prosperous city. The rich died of wealth and the poor died of poverty.
Irdele also tasted the feeling of being looked down upon. That was the first time he went to a shop that made clothes for aristocrats and rich merchants. The shop was indeed high-end, but the waitress was almost arrogant to the heavens. She simply had a high and mighty appearance. She looked down on Irdele. Just by looking at Irdele's appearance and dressing, she looked down on him, as if the shop was opened by the waitress.
Irdele also encountered similar situations in some slightly high-end restaurants. At that time, it just so happened that a young couple dressed in ordinary clothes saved up some money with great difficulty and decided to go to the high-end restaurant to eat. The waitress may have seen that the young couple dressed in ordinary clothes, so she made things difficult for the young couple and ignored them. They spent money but still had to look at her face. This waiter immediately acted like a lapdog in front of those rich people. Irdele could not stand it anymore and said to the young couple that they dropped their money bag. This was deliberately done by Irdele. There were 100 gold dragon coins inside.
However, the young couple said that it was not theirs and gave the money bag to the waitress.
The waitress slightly eased her disdainful face. Seeing that no one was paying attention, she said that she wanted to give it to the owner, but in fact, she secretly kept it.
There was no owner. Irdele deliberately gave it to the young couple. In this case, Irdele hurriedly finished eating and paid for the dishes on the young couple's table. In that case, he could only give them a free surprise meal. Irdele left the restaurant. Of course, the gold coins that the waiter secretly kept would not only be useless, but might even cost him his life. This was because the gold coins had already been exchanged by Irdele for a bag of poisonous insects. Sometimes, don't take things that don't belong to you. It's useless even if you take them.
Another time, Irdele dressed up as an ordinary person and ate in a dirty shop in the slums. That small shop was one of the more popular ones in the area. Many people were eating there. The boss's attitude was very arrogant. Seeing that Irdele was a foreigner, he took advantage of Irdele in all kinds of ways. Moreover, he even had the nature of forcing people to buy and sell. It was really a case of a big shop bullying its customers. However, Yordlai didn't eat anything in that shop. At a glance, Yordlai saw that there was a happy grass ingredient in the soup. No wonder those diners were full of praise for this shop. They could even endure the bad attitude of the fat pig boss.
However, it was said that the small shop later caught fire. It was completely burned. The fat pig boss was burned into a charcoal-like dry corpse. The key point was that the houses next to it didn't have a single spark. Only this shop was burned down.
There was another problem in this bustling city. Many people didn't do practical work. Everyone was doing some kind of performance, flirting, deceiving others, economic and financial work. There was no practical value to speak of. The most ridiculous thing was that there was a kind of performance. People who ate could also make money. You heard it right. Every day, they brought different kinds of food and performed eating in the market. The key point was that there were fools who would tip them, and it was a lot.
Why did everyone do fake things? That was because fake things were more profitable than real things. There were also people who deliberately wore strange clothes and showed off everywhere. They wanted to attract others' attention. They even brought accompanying artists to draw their beautiful figures. It was really disgusting.
There were also men who painted their lips red and their faces white. Their half-man half-woman appearance was also disgusting.
When passing by a red light district, a luxurious carriage madly rushed toward Irdele who was walking normally and kept shouting.
"Get out of the way! Fart! Damn it, get out of the way! "The coachman was extremely arrogant because he was driving a carriage for a noble.
However, what he didn't expect was that the legs of the galloping horse suddenly exploded. The entire luxurious carriage instantly toppled over and fell to the ground.
The coachman's skull was shattered and he died on the spot. He fell at Irdele's feet. Irdele didn't even blink his eyes and continued walking.
He saw that not far away, there was a shop that sold skin and meat. An old woman with a few thugs pressed the head of a young girl who didn't seem to have reached adulthood into the toilet bowl. They kept beating her and even poured water into her toilet bowl. There were many onlookers at the scene, but no one helped. However, this was very normal. It was very likely that this woman herself was in debt, but it was also possible that she was really forcing a good girl into prostitution.
Irdele didn't want to care. Life and death were fated. Everyone had their own destiny. Even if he saved her today, so what?
In a shop in this red light district, Irdele also saw the offspring of a nouveau riche who was super good at showing off his wealth. Exaggerated gold ornaments, spending money like water, telling others that he was a rich man.
However, Irdele felt that the more such fools there were, the better. This way, they wouldn't starve to death.
In short, during this period of time, Irdele saw too many things and also learned a lot. For example, the people at the bottom begged and spent a lot of money for their children to receive a good education. However, they didn't think that it was useless. He also saw the imprisoned beasts in the zoo. They were in pain and lost their freedom. Abominable human beings were like this city. They were full of hostility and power. They were like giant maggots that made people nauseous.
Of course, Irdele also saw a shop with a conscience that ran a good business with integrity. It was a shop opened by a cat-human merchant at the bottom of the society. Irdele drank there and won another bottle. This cat-human couple worked hard in a foreign country with a little cat-human. They worked hard every day to run the shop well. When they weren't paying attention, Irdele left a letter and a small bag of gold coins. As for the content of the letter, probably only the cat-human couple knew.
Irdele also saw the diligent farmers who worked hard. When they ate, even the ordinary food was delicious and they were happy from the bottom of their hearts.
Seeing the beauty of the people at the bottom, Irdele didn't want to completely destroy this city. He saw hope and love. These people didn't know the dirty and disgusting things of the upper class at all. In fact, this was a good thing. It was also a kind of protection.
It was true that under prosperity were all ruins, and under power were all bones!
