Alien Arms Empire.

Chapter 1710 1711 The More You Stay

They thought they were going to die this winter, but unexpectedly, they found a glimmer of hope in the hands of a demon described as a man-eating demon.

"Mom! This bread is so delicious..." The child praised excitedly while chewing the soft bread. This was the first time he had eaten such delicious bread since he was a child.

This kind of thing, which is added with a lot of food additives, is extremely soft and very easy to preserve. It is extremely cheap in the Tang Empire. It is a genuine civilian food. Therefore, it can travel across the ocean to become relief food here. However, its unique taste conquered these dwarf civilians who have never seen the world.

What may be poison to you may be honey to me. In an era when people had never tasted or seen such things, the so-called things that were not so healthy for the body were actually not taken seriously by people.

This era is simply a paradise for creators like Tang Mo: people here will not point to a piece of bread with a shelf life of twelve months and say that this thing is unhealthy, but will think that this thing is really great.

Because the food was so delicious, the family's previous plan to eat less was completely ruined. Not only did the two families eat more and more, but because they were bored waiting, they lit a fire in the small stove, and the tent gradually became warmer.

They found that this tent designed by the Tang people was extremely scientific. It had Velcro to prevent wind from coming in through the door curtain, and there was also a transparent plastic window that allowed a little sunlight to come in, making the entire tent less dark and depressing.

In their eyes, this ordinary tent is the crystallization of countless unprecedented high-tech technologies: lighter, thinner and stronger frame, warmer material, light-transmitting plastic, convenient Velcro design... All of this proves the power of the Tang Empire.

Later, unable to resist the children's pleading, the adults of the two families finally tore open the packaging bags and began to try on their cotton-padded jackets. Because it was a one-size-fits-all design, it was very large when put on, but no one cared about it.

It is already very good to have such a set of cotton-padded clothes to wear, not to mention that this thing is really not cut corners at all, and it is even thicker than the cotton-padded clothes made by the dwarves themselves.

"It's so warm... How could they be willing to use so much cotton..." The woman who put on the clothes sighed as she looked at the thick cuffs.

To be honest, this dress doesn't look good, and it doesn't fit, but when you wear it, you feel relieved and "real". It's as if everything has been put back on track.

"If we are asked to do the work, we have no choice but to go." After eating and taking other people's things, they finally lost their position. The two men gathered around the stove, worried about their future.

"Just go. You've seen it all the way here. It's nothing to work around here." Seeing that their family suddenly had hope of survival, they finally made up their minds.

"Dad, Dad! I want to eat another one." The child came over, stared at his father with eager eyes, and begged, "Mom doesn't let me eat it, but I'm still hungry."

Even though they had already eaten a lot, the children would still lose their restraint when they suddenly encountered something delicious. The child's father looked back at his wife, smiled bitterly and touched the child's head: "Leave some for dinner. I don't know if there are any more of these."

They had just eaten almost all the easy-to-eat bread, and now only a few packets of instant noodles were left in the original place. After a while, the female dwarf who had just left the distribution tent came back. When she opened the door curtain and walked in, she brought in a chill: "Not bad, you know how to light the stove yourself, better than I did back then."

After complimenting him, she came over and warmed her hands on the stove. "Eat as much as you want. The daily amount is enough. It has been more than a month and there has been no shortage. There is nothing to do during normal times. Someone from the Tang people will come to ask some questions, such as what you did in the past and what skills you have. If you are willing to work, you can sign up."

As she spoke, she turned her hand over and pointed the back of her hand towards the stove: "Don't worry, the Tang people will pay you, arrange better accommodation for you, and give you more food. They want workers who can build houses and can read... Even those with strength are fine."

"You..." Finally unable to hold back, a man spoke nervously. After uttering one word, he became timid and didn't know how to continue.

"Me? I was one of the first few batches of refugees sent here. The man died." The woman recounted her past calmly, without any waves: "I don't know anything, so they let me do this job here to receive people like you who come later..."

She thought of her children, and a look of happiness appeared on her face: here her children have a school and can learn to read. The Tang people from the Western Continent even gave her a toy, an old toy that traveled tens of thousands of kilometers to the Eastern Continent.

Hearing that the toy belonged to a child on the Western Continent, she donated the doll, hoping that a child on the Eastern Continent would be as happy as she was.

And she, the daughter of a female dwarf, did gain her own happiness because of this toy. The world is not all cold, at least in some corners, there is still some warmth.

"If, I mean if, we just stay here forever... is that okay?" The other man was obviously thinking a lot, and asked tentatively: "They just keep supporting us for free?"

"Many people have the same idea as you, but I advise you not to have such an idea." The woman answered without even thinking for a second. She was very calm because she had explained this problem to countless people in recent days: "Because going out is the better choice."

"I am the best example: I work for them, so I have a better life." The woman smiled and did not shy away from using herself as an example.

Even though she lives here now, her life is full of hope. Tangren gave her a good choice. As long as she works here for a full year, she can have another choice and live another life.

A year later, she could leave the shelter with her child and go to Saint-Lo or Yongdong Port, where she could get a house, find a decent job in a department of the Tang people, and send her child to a decent school...

"Can they really stay and rule the dwarves forever?" the man asked this question blankly.

"I look at Ironforge in the distance every day... Take a look there, and you will soon have your own answer." The woman replied: "Oh, by the way, don't save any food. The more you save, the more... it's useless."
