Chapter 4531, break the status quo
Sanchez, for the time being, can be considered a gangster who occupies a territory in the downtown area.
He wasn't very good at it, but Sanchez believed that his life was already better than that of more than 90% of the humans in downtown.
Although he is now in his prime, and under normal circumstances, he still has a lot of time, but considering the status of mankind in the Holy Light Holy See, Sanchez himself basically has no expectations if he wants to go further.
He is a man who has a brain and can think, but also knows how to look at forms and is contented.
There is nothing wrong with just living in the black market in Xiacheng District for the rest of my life, collecting protection fees, and living a more stable life.
Until Luo Ji and the others arrived.
It can be said that Sanchez's life, which had tended to be stable and peaceful, was completely broken by Luo Ji and the others.
Now, only one day has passed since that street fight. Lying on the bed in his residence, Sanchez still looked slightly dazed.
From the time he came back yesterday to now, he has been lying like this, without even taking a bite of food.
At the end of the brawl, although Luo Ji had spoken to recruit him, he did not let anyone look at him or take any further action. Instead, he asked him to collect the people under his control, and then left.
No more care.
This means that it is clear how to choose, it is all up to him.
Now this multiple-choice question was placed in front of him.
It is easy for them to walk up this road, but it is extremely difficult to get down.
As the boss of this black market, he had made enemies with so many people before and received protection fees from so many people. Now there will be so many people who are ready to settle accounts with him when he is down and out!
Simply following the new boss would be a way to survive.
But Sanchez has not yet made a clear decision.
Is it because he is still hesitating?
As the boss of this black market, he is now reduced to someone else's younger brother, and that 'other person' stepped on him to get the upper hand.
This can be said to be very shameful, and it is normal to feel embarrassed.
In the eyes of many outsiders, this change in status for Sanchez is no less than falling from heaven to hell. This gap in status and situation is enough to drive people crazy.
But in fact, for Sanchez himself, this is not the case.
From that incident to now, he has been paralyzed on the bed, not eating or drinking, not because the shock was too great and he was unable to recover, but because he was pondering his emotions.
Sanchez found that his current mood was so complicated and subtle that he couldn't even explain it.
The shock was actually a little bit at first, but at that time, after he completely gave up struggling and heard Luo Ji's words, an inexplicable sense of relief and... excitement filled his heart?
He was still a little unsure, so he kept thinking about it.
But now, he has figured it out a little bit...
Taking a deep breath, Sanchez supported his body with his hands and sat up from the bed.
As the former boss of a black market, although Sanchez's residence is average, at least he has enough to eat and drink. For humans in the lower city to be able to do this, it is already very good.
If you can keep up with nutrition, your physique will naturally be better than that of ordinary people who are hungry and malnourished every day.
Now that he doesn't eat or drink for a whole day, it won't make him weak.
After sitting up from the bed, the first thing Sanchez did was not to find food. Instead, he walked a few steps to his desk, found paper and pen, and started writing quickly.
Early the next morning, Luo Ji saw Sanchez with a pair of dark circles and bloodshot eyes approaching him.
At first glance, it looked like he had come to Luo Ji to die with him after losing everything.
Ye Qingxuan, who saw this scene at the time, felt a little disappointed, thinking that she had seen the wrong person.
Faced with Sanchez looking like this, Luo Ji was very calm.
According to the strength of his body, no matter what Sanchez does, it is impossible to hurt him in the slightest, so there is nothing to panic about.
Therefore, Luo Ji also allowed the other party to approach.
After getting closer, Sanchez's next move made Ye Qingxuan retract his thoughts. Sanchez actually handed a roll of paper directly to Luo Ji.
Here in the Holy Light Holy See, there is no paper made of tree pulp, so the most commonly used paper is leather paper made of animal leather.
After writing, you can wash it and reuse it.
However, because the leather paper itself is not cheap, even among the Yi people in Shangcheng District, there are only a handful of people who use leather paper for writing.
Sanchez, the former black boss, actually had a roll of leather paper in his hand, which surprised both Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan.
After all, this thing really doesn't match his identity.
When he opened the paper, Luo Ji was even more surprised. He saw that the lines on the paper were quite neatly written.
"Did you write this?"
"Yes."
Faced with the question, Sanchez nodded.
At this moment, taking a glance at the words on the paper, Ye Qingxuan realized that the former black boss in front of her might be better than she expected.
You know, in this religious and cultural context, most of the winged people, let alone humans, are illiterate.
Being able to speak and being able to write are two different things.
In the Holy Light Holy See, only those from the upper class are eligible to receive literary education.
As for the ordinary wingmen of the civilian class and the humans in the lower city, especially humans, whether they can write or not is of little significance to them.
In the Kingdom of Holy Light, the Winged People are okay, but there is no advantage for humans who can write, and there is no way to get a better life with this.
Therefore, learning words has simply become a waste of time and money among humans.
"Did you teach yourself this word?"
"Yes."
Sanchez nodded again, refreshing Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan's understanding of him.
At this time, the content written on the paper was secondary. From the other party's actions, Luo Ji and Ye Qingxuan could see that Sanchez was actually unwilling to settle for the status quo.
The current situation here does not refer to his original "black boss" status, but a deeper "class" issue.
Deep down, he was not willing to spend his whole life being a low-class person in this downtown area.
But at the same time, Sanchez is smart and he can see the situation clearly, so he knows that he can't actually change the status quo and break through the restrictions of this 'class'.
Therefore, considering it from a safe perspective, he chose to be content with the status quo.
This was a smart move, but didn't it come from his cowardice? He didn't dare to fight desperately.
However, the appearance of Luo Ji broke this status quo, and to a certain extent, also broke the shackles that had always bound him.
Combining the intelligence collected previously, Sanchez knew that Luo Ji was not a simple person when he first saw him.
It goes without saying how strong the opponent's force is.
