    Chapter 82

    Saying goodbye to Flora, Lucia walked towards the slum.

    When choosing the location of the factory at the beginning, after careful consideration, Lucia finally chose the slum of Serancha.

    One is because the land here is very cheap, and the other is because she wants to give people here a choice - a choice that can change their own destiny.

    After receiving a large start-up capital from the emperor, Lucia and Mistry returned to Serancha with the money, and starting from the chosen location, the two of them walked through Serancha's slum little by little.

    In the end, the direction west of the slum, near the dock, was selected.

    The next step is to split the manufacturing process in more detail and design the assembly line project. Although Mistry took over a lot of work, Lucia was also exhausted.

    Fortunately, after more than half a year of preparation, the parts that the factory can produce have also been designed and can finally be planned.

    The factory occupied the land of some poor people, and Lucia gave those people a choice to either leave with a compensation payment or enter the factory to work.

    Most went with the money, and only a few stayed.

    And this small number of people need education before they can work.

    Another year passed, and when Lucia was eleven years old, the factory finally produced the first batch of parts, allowing Miyi to enter the market and start selling.

    Under the advertising effect of His Majesty the Emperor, as soon as rice was launched, it became a must-have social tool for the nobility, and it was passed on by word of mouth of the nobility, and finally spread to the whole society.

    After years of hard work, the Mi series has been updated every year, and finally solved the problem of blurred voice calls. The clarity of conversations in the new series has reached a new high, setting off a new wave of purchases.

    Entering the factory through the side door, Lucia looked at the results of her years of hard work with satisfaction.

    Orderly order, clean and bright workshops, and dedicated workers have all been made little by little in the past few years. Although it is still in its infancy, it has already changed the fate of a small number of people.

    After dealing with some factory work, Lucia thought for a while, and decided to hold a communicator design competition recently, to stir up a wave of popularity for the most urgently launched Mi Liu.

    Seriously listed some questions in the small notebook, Lucia walked slowly home.

    There is a short way from the factory to the slum. There are often no people here during the day. Lucia slowly walked home over and over while thinking about the problem.

    I went to the station to take a carriage and went back to my house before dinner.

    Lucia glanced at Mistry's house and found that the door was closed, and even the big crow that often stayed in front of the door was no longer there.

    Mistry is out?

    Although she quarreled with Mitri in the morning, Lucia ran directly to Mistry's house because she knew that Mistry would never be really angry with herself.

    Before reaching the door, Lucia found that the sign 'Master is out' was hung on the door.

    Seems to be really out?

    This was the first time that Mistry left after they quarreled. In the past, he would at least wait until he came back, and the two would say a few words.

    Did you not explain it this morning?

    Lucia walked aside, climbed up the windows of Mistry's house, tried to open them one by one, and found that every window was closed properly.

    In the end, Lucia could only return home full of suspicion, and found the communication device placed at home to contact Mistry.

    Soon, Mistry was connected.

    "Lucia, what's the matter?" Mistry's voice was still as gentle as before.

    "No." Lucia breathed a sigh of relief, took the magic circle and ran to his room, closed the door and started coquettish with Mistry, "Where are you going, don't tell me a word."

    "There is a very important thing that I need to do in person." Mistry replied, "I will go back in a few days."

    "What's the matter?" Lucia couldn't help but ask, "I can help you too."

    On the other side, Mistry laughed, and he gently refused: "It doesn't matter, I will go back soon."

    This time, no matter how coquettish Lucia was, Mistry did not change her words. In the end, Lucia could only reluctantly hang up the communication. When she got downstairs, she found that Athos had returned.

    Athos is 31 years old this year, but he still looks very young, no different from a young man of 23 or 4 years old. Instead, it is the years and experience that have made him more calm and more attractive.

    At present, Athos has a smooth career and has become the chief of the regional police station. It is said that he will be promoted again soon.

    "Lucia, I made broth for you, I have something to do tonight." Athos smiled bitterly, "Anna and Ram are going to a banquet."

    Looking at the wry smile on Athos' face, Lucia instantly understood: "Are you going to have a blind date again?"

    "Ah." Athos sighed.

    Lucia also looked at Athos with sympathy.

    Yes, a man who is handsome, does things properly, has a successful career, and can cook, so far, he is still unmarried.

    Don't say married, not even a girlfriend.

    At the beginning, no one in the family worried about Athos's marriage, after all, his appearance and job were good.

    Sure enough, soon Athos had a suitor.

    It is the daughter of the owner of the candy store. After the family had money, Athos went to buy candy for Lucia every other week, and was loved at first sight by the owner's daughter.

    Athos himself also liked this shy girl, so when the two were in contact slowly, the girl's hometown

    childhood sweetheart

    coming.

    When his childhood sweetheart saw Ados who was dating a girl from a candy store, he was so angry that he wanted to fight Ados.

    As an excellent patrolman, Athos certainly easily subdued his childhood sweetheart.

    As a result, the girl in the candy store cried and said to stop fighting, and then left with her childhood sweetheart.

    In the end, the childhood sweetheart and the candy store girl rejoiced with each other, rebuilt the old friendship, and Athos became a short-lived love.

    The first one was fine, but the second Athos and the police station recorder had a little bit of a favorable impression.

    But it never occurred to me that the recorder was spotted by a nobleman who came to report the crime during his work.

    two people

    sadism

    The love is deep, you are dead and alive, every time the recorder is wronged, he will cry and tell Athos, Athos of course also comforts the other party.

    At the end of the comfort, the recorder and the minor nobles succeeded, and Athos became the background board again.

    One after another, every time Athos wants to fall in love, he will encounter all kinds of problems.

    Ram and Anna have been indulging in the beginning, and now they have begun to worry about the life of Athos, so they often go to the surrounding banquets, trying to find a good girl to introduce to Athos.

    "Who are you going to see today?" Lucia asked sympathetically.

    "It's the daughter of my father's colleague's brother's colleague." Athos gave a wry smile, "Although I don't think it will be successful this time, it is my father's kindness after all..."

    "Then go and meet." Lucia said sympathetically, "What if it succeeds."

    "I hope so." Athos sighed, "I only hope now that the other party does not have a childhood sweetheart in his hometown, nor a bloodless brother, nor lose his memory and fall in love with his doctor, much less I like women..."

    Lucia thought to herself, it is unlikely that these are possible, because Athos itself is a female hardship, and the woman who is in love with him is no problem, and there will be problems after encountering him.

    "Then why don't I go and have a look?" Lucia suggested, "If you watch it alone, there may be problems, so I'll take a look at it secretly."

    "It's not impossible." Athos now has no hope for his observational power in love.

    After saying this, he suddenly reacted: "You said you wanted to observe secretly?"

    "yes."

    Athos stared at his sister's dazzling face and sighed helplessly: "Lucia, it's not that I don't want you to go, but I can't think of how your face can be secretly observed."

    Lucia had already made up her mind that she was following like a female detective, but she suddenly reacted when she heard Athos' words.

    Mistry isn't here now, she can't change her outfit.

    "It's okay, I'll just go and see for myself." Athos patted Lucia's head helplessly, "It's nothing, even if there is any change, I can handle it."

    "After all, I have a lot of experience."

    With infinite sympathy, he watched his brother who had a female imprisoned physique leave. Lucia finished her dinner and walked around the room, rarely feeling bored.

    She dragged a stool and sat beside the bed, lying on the windowsill, looking at the opposite house with the sea breeze blowing.

    In the third year of Seranga, the lock on the window was taken off by Anna, because Anna felt that she had grown up and knew what was dangerous and what was safe.

    After that, she went to Mistry to play when she was bored.

    Ram is also very busy, Anna is also very busy, and Athos is also very busy, they are all running around in this city for a better life.

    But Lucia never felt lonely, because Mistry would always be by her side no matter what.

    For so many years, Mistry was like a god in the temple, always so gentle, so considerate, without the slightest impatience with himself.

    But Lucia felt that she had changed, and she began to be greedy for more things.

    Although the memory of the previous life is somewhat vague, Lucia vaguely remembers that she is not a person who believes in love and wants to get married.

    But after getting to know Mistry, all her thoughts changed with this god.

    Lucia began to look forward to falling in love, expecting two people to have their own small home together, and began to look forward to seeing each other for the first time every morning.

    In this world where marriage began at the age of fourteen or fifteen, Lucia waited for Mistry to confess after her fourteenth birthday, and then they went from love to marriage smoothly.

    But after waiting for so long, Mistry still didn't respond at all.

    Obviously he is still so gentle and considerate, still obedient, but there is no hint of love.

    Is this all that He can give to God?

    Lucia lay on the edge of the window, frowned and thought for a while, and finally decided.

    She's going to chase after her!
