Rebirth: I Raise a Husband in Another World

Chapter 277 Looking for the truth

The oldest of these little beggars was estimated to be no more than nine years old. Lin Han stepped into the gate of the dilapidated temple and was about to speak.

Suddenly, a boy about thirteen or fourteen years old jumped out from behind Lin Han. He looked a little cleaner than those little beggars, but only a little.

Xiao Hua noticed Lin Han when he started asking about the dilapidated temple where these beggars lived.

However, Lin Han looked tall and strong, so he didn't dare to act rashly. He followed behind Lin Han, wanting to see what Lin Han's purpose was.

It was not until he followed Lin Han to the dilapidated temple where they lived that Xiao Hua jumped out to question Lin Han, worried that Lin Han would do something to hurt his "brothers and sisters".

Xiao Hua: "Big brother, what are you doing here?"

Xiao Hua called Lin Han like that just to act pitiful and to gain the other person's sympathy.

The general meaning is, look how miserable we are, you shouldn't be so cruel as to bully us, right?

Xiao Hua's face was full of vigilance. Although his tone of voice was steady when he asked the question, if you were careful, you would notice a slight tremor in his voice.

Lin Han didn't feel anything. He thought it was normal. If a stranger came to his house one day and the difference in power between him and the stranger was huge, he would also be so vigilant.

Lin Han didn't answer directly, but asked a question, but he acted very kindly: "Are you their eldest brother?"

Xiao Hua saw that Lin Han had no ill intentions, so he did not let his guard down. After all, he didn't know whether Lin Han was pretending or not.

But when he answered, he was not as nervous as at the beginning. Xiao Hua said: "I am, big brother. I wonder what you are doing here."

Lin Han then returned to the point and replied in a normal tone: "Don't panic, I'm not here to cause you any trouble. Since you said you are their eldest brother, you must be their boss, right?"

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Hua's thoughts suddenly changed. He looked at the fabric of Lin Han's clothes. Although it was not particularly expensive, it was not very cheap either.

He thought to himself: Could it be that this person is the housekeeper of a rich family and wants to come here to buy a maid or a servant?

Don’t ask why Xiao Hua thinks so, because he has seen that some families are not poor, but they are not particularly rich either.

When people want to buy a maid or a servant but find the price from the human traffickers is too high, they will buy a beggar.

One reason is that beggars are cheap, after all, there are no middlemen to make a profit from the price difference, and the other reason is that the money from selling one's body is in the hands of the beggars themselves.

He sold himself because he was really hungry and cold, so he might as well sell himself to someone else as a servant.

Apart from anything else, at least you can have enough food and clothes. If your life is about to end, why bother with so many things.

Of course, such good things don’t happen often. If you want to sell yourself, you have to be willing to sell yourself.

Because he had seen similar scenes before, and with Lin Han's words, Xiao Hua naturally thought of something wrong.

Lin Han just said this and waited for Xiao Hua to answer, but Xiao Hua had already lost his mind, thinking about which of his brothers or sisters he should persuade Lin Han to buy.

Xiao Hua: Honghong is older and can take care of herself. Although Liangliang is young, he is a little man after all and can take care of himself.

How about Fangfang? She is the youngest and still needs Honghong’s care. If anything happens, we won’t be able to save her at all. Okay, let’s choose her.

Before Lin Han could say anything, Xiao Hua had already planned everything.

Xiao Hua replied: "Yes, I am their eldest brother. They listen to what I say. I wonder what you want to do with us?"

After asking this question three times, this time Lin Han finally stated his purpose, "I want to ask you to do something for me. Don't worry, there will be a reward.

I'd like you to help me find out if there are any rumors about Hualing Pavilion in town recently."

Xiao Hua was shocked: What! It turns out that he is not here to buy a servant. Well, I thought too much and thought I could find a good place for Fangfang.

So you're here to gather information. You've come to the right person, Hualing Pavilion? That name sounds familiar.

Knowing Lin Han's purpose, Xiao Hua was immediately disappointed, and the light in his eyes seemed to dim in an instant, but when he heard the word "remuneration", his eyes brightened a little.

Xiao Hua was not sure whether the Hua Ling Pavilion that Lin Han mentioned was the Hua Ling Pavilion he had in mind, so he confirmed it with Lin Han again.

Xiao Hua: "Big brother, is the Hualing Pavilion you are talking about the one that sells cakes?"

Lin Han nodded and replied: "Yes, is there another Hualing Pavilion in the town?"

I swear to God, Lin Han said this out of pure curiosity and there was absolutely no bad intention in it.

However, Xiao Hua did not think wrongly. He thought about it carefully and realized that there was indeed no second Hualing Pavilion in the town.

Thinking of this, he was delighted. It was really easy to get it. Now he didn't have to ask around. He had heard a lot of rumors about Hualing Pavilion while begging in the town these days.

So Xiao Hua said to Lin Han in a decisive tone: "No, there is no other Hualing Pavilion in this town."

Lin Han: "That's good, then you can help me check if there are any rumors about Hualing Pavilion in the town recently, and where the rumors came from.

If you find any useful information, I will pay you handsomely."

Xiao Hua was in high spirits, as he was about to receive the money. He smiled and said, "Big brother, are you tired of standing? How about we sit down and talk?"

Lin Han thought Xiao Hua was quite reliable, and since he might have to stay here for a while to get useful information, he agreed.

Lin Han replied gently, "Okay." Seeing this, Xiao Hua asked Liangliang to bring a straw mat to Lin Han.

Lin Han said thank you, which scared Liang Liang and he quickly waved his hands and said, "You're welcome, you're welcome."

Not to mention, although the clothes of these children were a bit shabby, the straw stool that Liangliang gave to Lin Han to sit on was quite clean.

Lin Han sat down, and Xiao Hua began, "Big brother, I've heard a lot of rumors about Hualing Pavilion these days, the two most important ones are.

One said that the pastries in Hualing Pavilion were drugged and addictive, so those customers bought them frequently.

Another said that the pastries in Hualing Pavilion were made with bad ingredients, like the mung beans and red beans were infested with worms.

They use inferior materials but still sell them at such a high price. They are really unscrupulous. As a result, Hualing Pavilion’s business has not been very good these days.

Big brother, as for the source of the rumor, I don't know yet, but please give me some time, I will find out soon."

After hearing this, Lin Han realized that it was exactly the same as his own idea. He thought to himself, as expected, if no one spread rumors behind the back, how could Hualing Pavilion's business be so bad.

At the same time, it also verifies that what the author wrote in the novel is true, that beggars know a lot.
