Chapter 17: Someone from the county government came to upload the video again! (Please vote)
"what's the situation?"
As soon as he walked out of the room, Lin Zhongyun immediately saw dozens of refugees surrounded by a group of refugees.
Among them was the father and son.
It was already dawn, and the fires around were still not extinguished. However, the servants of the palace seemed to have used the high walls of the inner courtyard to create a firebreak, and then put out the fire, preventing it from spreading again.
Several large pots were placed in front of the granary. At this time, the refugees seemed to have finished their meal, so the chaos that Lin Zhongyun had imagined did not occur.
Hearing Lin Zhongyun's voice, the refugees almost immediately lowered their voices and turned their heads.
Li Zhongwu immediately ran over with the dozens of knife-wielding guards, looked at Lin Zhongyun with surprise and said, "Brother, I left some food for you."
He had gone to see Lin Zhongyun just after finishing cooking, but Lin Zhongyun was sleeping so soundly that Li Zhongwu did not dare to reveal Lin Zhongyun's condition in order to prevent any trouble.
Now that he saw Lin Zhongyun woke up, he was naturally very happy.
"it is good."
Lin Zhongyun nodded directly, then frowned and looked at the surrounded refugees and asked, "What's wrong with them?"
"Brother, not only did these beasts not help us, they also wanted to steal the beef we left outside."
Li Zhongwu's face immediately showed anger: "They beat the five of us who were left outside to death, and they wanted to steal the food from the palace."
Hearing this, Lin Zhongyun's face immediately showed murderous intent.
It wasn't just because of the five refugees who followed him.
In such troubled times, only you can fight for your own survival, and death is the due consequence.
What made him angry was that these guys actually wanted to get their hands on his spoils!
Lin Zhongyun walked straight through the refugee group with a kitchen knife in hand and came in front of those people, with murderous intent growing more intense on his face.
"Sir, we are willing to follow you, please give us something to eat."
"I am willing to follow you, sir! I only ask you to give me something to eat."
"Sir, I am willing to serve you like a slave, please forgive me."
"."
As if they had noticed the attitudes of the people around them towards Lin Zhongyun, as soon as Lin Zhongyun stepped forward, voices of discussion suddenly rang out.
The old man looked at Lin Zhongyun directly and said, "Young man, we are all fellow villagers. Now that you have food, please share some with us."
Looking at the people in front of him, Lin Zhongyun's face was filled with murderous intent. He didn't stay for long and just waved his hand: "Kill them and throw them out!"
"Also, settle the families of those five people."
Naturally, he couldn't give this group of people a chance.
Now he has gained a lot of reputation among these refugees, but Lin Zhongyun also has to make them understand one thing.
That means only by following me can you have enough food!
Moreover, even if they die, I will take good care of their families!
Hearing this, the refugees immediately showed a look of despair on their faces, and their cries for mercy became louder and louder.
But no matter whether they were the guards who were eager to show off their achievements to Lin Zhongyun, or the refugees who were angered, it was impossible to give them a chance.
In an instant, this group of people rushed forward!
Blood splattered everywhere and screams rang out instantly.
Lin Zhongyun did not get involved in the matter. Instead, he took Li Zhongwu to the side, picked up the meat that Li Zhongwu left for him, and talked to him about what happened after he fainted.
It seemed that because he killed Chu Laowu with one sword, the group of refugees did not cause any trouble after he fainted.
Especially after seeing Li Zhongwu open the granary and take out food in front of the refugees, the refugees consciously maintained order. As for the guards, they seemed to be afraid of Lin Zhongyun and did not make trouble either, especially because they also knew that if they left the palace at this time, even they would not be able to survive.
So they followed Li Zhongwu to maintain order and quickly began to prepare the entire palace.
The servants in the palace had already known about the great changes that had taken place in the palace, so they were all subdued and tasked with putting out the fire.
As for the wives, concubines and children of the rich man Wang, Li Zhongwu hesitated for a moment and then said directly that he had killed them all.
Lin Zhongyun was neither surprised nor relieved by this result.
Although Li Zhongwu is a cowherd in this palace, he has been bullied by the Wang family for many years. Now that he has finally turned the tables, it is reasonable for him to take revenge.
Lin Zhongyun also agreed with this. Although he did not think that these people would pose any threat to him, what reason did he have to be kind to his enemies?
Seeing that Lin Zhongyun was not angry, Li Zhongwu breathed a sigh of relief. Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, his expression suddenly changed and he said in a deep voice, "By the way, brother, County Magistrate Chen sent someone to ask you to meet him at dawn."
"To see him?"
Lin Zhongyun frowned immediately.
"Yes." Li Zhongwu nodded immediately, and said with a serious expression: "I heard from the guards that County Magistrate Chen has always been in contact with the rich man Wang, and sometimes he would take some money and food from the Wang Mansion."
This was naturally something that a cowherd like him could not access.
Hearing this, Lin Zhongyun suddenly recalled a scene from his previous life's memory. Almost every month, the rich man Wang would send people to deliver food and fodder to the county government office, and they would be guarded by bodyguards and soldiers.
"Then why did he come to see me?"
Lin Zhongyun couldn't help but frown and fell into deep thought.
Logically speaking, what he did today had seriously violated the laws of Daqian. Even though Lian'an was just a remote small town, the law would not have much impact on him.
Considering the relationship between County Magistrate Chen and Rich Man Wang, he shouldn't just let me do it myself.
wrong
Suddenly, Lin Zhongyun's eyes lit up and he roughly guessed what was going on.
He wants me to be the second rich man Wang and serve him as his dog!
Collusion between officials and businessmen was very common in such chaotic times, and even collusion between officials and bandits did not exist.
But this might be okay in times of peace.
To do this kind of thing in these chaotic times is to die slowly?
It is unknown how long it will take for the drought to end. Although the palace has some food, he still has to feed these refugees who follow him!
The land in Cangzhou cannot be cultivated yet, so how can we possibly give it to the rich man Wang?
Thinking of this, Lin Zhongyun's eyes couldn't help but condense, and he nodded directly, saying lightly: "I know."
"Second brother, give me the granary key, and go count how many people are following us in the mansion now."
"Okay!" Li Zhongwu nodded immediately and took out the key.
"Go." Lin Zhongyun threw the remaining bones away, took the key, and got up and rushed towards the granary.
He first had to figure out how much food he had available.
Similarly, he also needs to upload a video!
In front of Lin Zhong's eyes, as Lin Zhongyun's mind moved, the familiar upload interface appeared again!
