He looked at the two big boxes of steak in front of him. There was still a faint fragrance coming from them.
Su Zhe directly carried the two boxes and walked down the bridge. It had to be said that they were quite heavy.
There was a group of wanderers making noise under the bridge. The air here was not very good, and there was a smell of mold.
They were generally unkempt and dirty. The group of people formed a few small circles. Some of them were playing cards, while others were chatting.
Su Zhe noticed a thin man sitting beside him.
He had a long beard and messy hair. Just like the other wanderers, they were dressed in tattered clothes. There were a few empty plastic bottles at his feet.
However, although the man was dressed in rags, his face was clean. He was holding a book titled " Records of the Three Kingdoms " whose cover had already turned yellow, and was reading it with great interest. He had an indescribable temperament, as if he was an immortal.
Su Zhe immediately understood the system's intention. It probably wanted him to get to know this man in front of him.
"Hello, I was entrusted by someone to buy some food for you all as a token of my appreciation.”Su Zhe stood under the bridge and said with a smile.
The noisy crowd suddenly quieted down. They looked at Su Zhe and quickly surrounded him.
"How do you know I haven't eaten yet? I'm starving.”
"Wow, it smells so good. Hurry up and get me a portion.”
"It's delicious. It's too delicious. I've never eaten such delicious food in my life.”
Everyone swarmed over and quickly ate 19 steaks. There was only one steak left in the two big boxes. It belonged to the man who was sitting and reading. The system was right. There were exactly twenty portions, one for each person.
The man that Su Zhe had noticed earlier was reading the book in his hand with relish, as if it was his food, his spiritual food.
When Su Zhe saw the man's calm appearance, admiration rose in his heart.
"Hello, what are you reading?”Su Zhe smiled and walked forward. He didn't care about the dirt on the floor and sat beside the man.
"Oh, Romance of the Three Kingdoms. I've been analyzing the similarities between the two books recently. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a history book written by Chen Shou, while the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a romance novel.”
The man explained with a smile before he fell back into reading.
"Uh, it's lunchtime now. I was asked to bring you some food. Why don't you eat first? You can focus on reading after you're full, right?”
Su Zhe took out the steak from the box and handed it to the man.
"Hmm? Thank you so much. Help me thank the kind-hearted person who asked you to deliver the food. Of course, I also want to thank you for bringing these two big boxes of food over.”
The man reluctantly put down the book in his hand and took the steak from Su Zhe's hand with a smile.
There were a total of 20 wanderers, and only the man said thank you.
"You're welcome. I was just entrusted by someone.”Su Zhe smiled.
"I can't eat your food for free, right? If you don't mind, I'll tell you about history. I don't have any special hobbies. I pick up scraps and save the money from selling them to buy books. Therefore, he was quite familiar with history. He could also say a few words to others.”
"Sure, sure. I happen to be free today. Then please enlighten me. I'm all ears!”
Su Zhe sat upright, looking like he was studying seriously.
Time passed quickly.
Su Zhe sat and listened to the man talk about history for more than three hours. He also listened to his own life experiences for more than an hour. Su Zhe was engrossed in listening, and the man was also talking enthusiastically.
Usually, the wanderers around him would either eat, sleep, or wake up to eat. They would only play cards and play when they had free time. How could they have time to listen to him talk about history?
That was why the man usually did not mingle with them. The only reason why everyone could gather together now was that they were all wanderers.
Su Zhe roughly understood the man's life. His name was Shen Wei and he was born in Shanghai. Ever since he was young, he had been calling on the country to save energy and protect the environment. He often picked up waste on the roadside. The money from selling waste was not used to buy snacks and toys like other children, but to buy books.
Ever since he graduated from university and entered the audit office, he still could not change his habit of saving money. He often picked up waste paper and recycled items in the unit. Over time, his leader directly asked him to go home and wait for work on the grounds that he had mental problems.
That was the first setback in his life. He wanted to go home and tell his family about it, but his family did not understand him. They scolded him and quarreled with him. From then on, he moved out and lived alone.
After that, he gradually cut off contact with his family. He only visited his father in the hospital when he was seriously ill and met his long-lost family. After that, he continued to wander the streets alone.
After understanding Shen Wei's life, Su Zhe couldn't help but respect him! What kind of life was this! In order to stick to his ideals, he gave up everything.
This was the demeanor that a master should have! Su Zhe couldn't help but think of those sanctimonious clowns who claimed to be masters and pretended to be mysterious in front of others. In the end, they were just doing it for fame and fortune.
It was really a master wandering around, a clown sitting in the palace! This society was slowly becoming more materialistic. Most people would only live for benefits and survival. Unlike Master Shen Wei who was so leisurely.
"Master, you really make us feel ashamed. Your knowledge, breadth of mind, and the way of survival all make me feel inferior.”Su Zhe said respectfully to Shen Wei.
"He's not a master. He's just an ordinary person who has read more books.”Shen Wei quickly shook his head. He was very happy that Su Zhe agreed with his idea.
After so many years, there were very few friends who could have a long chat with him, especially under this dirty bridge. In this vulgar place, letting go of the shackles of the secular world and speaking freely was really a great blessing in life! At this time, Shen Wei already felt a sense of familiarity towards Su Zhe.
"Master, if you don't mind, I would like to make friends with you. When I have free time in the future, I will bring a pot of good wine and some snacks. In this noisy world, talk about the country, the world, and the world!”
Su Zhe said solemnly. Putting everything aside, Su Zhe admired Master Shen from the bottom of his heart. Only by enduring hardships could one be above others!
Before obtaining the system, Su Zhe was just a bitter writer who worked hard every day to earn money. After obtaining the system, Su Zhe simply wanted to use the system to make his life easier.
From now on, Su Zhe had made up his mind. He would take responsibility for the world in the future. While using the system to profit, he would also do his best to protect the justice of this society!
At this moment, the system's cold voice sounded again."This system has to give in to you. I thought you wanted to repent and lead this system to raise the moral standards of this world and benefit the world. I didn't expect you to still think of benefiting yourself!”
"Hey! Every man for himself. I have to ensure that I live well before I have the strength to help others. Hehehe…"
