Turbulent Times Chapter 365: Is it okay not to borrow money?
Wang Tong takes good care of the tent area of the victims, from building to zoning, from food relief to going to the toilet. The officials also continued to work in an orderly manner, but the grain in the official warehouse would be exhausted one day, and at this time, Wang Junlin brought in grain, and it was a full 100,000 shi.
How to feed the 100,000 shi of grain to the victims, Wang Junlin naturally didn't have to do it himself, at most he arranged for someone to supervise, he just had to let all the victims know that he had managed to get the food.
The nearly one hundred nobles and big landlords who hid in the White Scorpion Gang on Black Rock Mountain back then were all good people, so not only did they deliver the promised food as quickly as possible, but they also delivered it themselves. Just now when Wang Junlin murdered people, they were watching from behind the high platform, and they were really frightened. When Wang Junlin summoned them to the banquet hall of the Governor's Mansion, although Wang Junlin was polite, all these people had already knelt down on the ground. The ground, demeanor and demeanor are extremely respectful.
"Very good. The governor and the Marquis are very pleased. You good gentlemen know the general principles and understand the righteousness. It is really a blessing for the country and the common people to have you in Yongzhou. , Your Majesty and the common people, thank you all."
After speaking, Wang Junlin straightened up and bowed formally to the nobles and landlords.
All the nobles and big landowners rushed to return the salute, but they didn't even dare to say anything.
After the ceremony, Wang Junlin smiled and said: "In the year of the catastrophe, it is not possible to do extravagant things. It's just that today is special. I will entertain all the gentlemen on behalf of the court. The banquet may be simple, but my heart is sincere. I hope you will not give up."
All the landlords couldn't help but feel delighted, their face was bright and radiant, this peerless murderous man was very good at being a man and could speak, although when he first forced them to take out the food, he really scared them enough, Completely bluffed everyone, but then took their son or nephew as an errand next to him. This seemed to be taking their son or nephew as a hostage, but in fact it created an additional bridge between them and this peerless murderer. This bridge is exactly what nobles and landowners like them lack the most.
Therefore, the resentment of the nobles and big landlords being forced to take out the food dissipated a little. When they delivered the food in person, Wang Junlin said a few words of flattery, made a salute, and held a banquet. As a result, the nobles and big landlords gained face, and secretly got closer to Wang Junlin, so Lizi benefited, even though there was still some resentment in their hearts, it finally disappeared.
In the final analysis, this is an era of strict hierarchy and the law of the jungle. The founding marquis appointed by the emperor, the general who controls an army of 30,000 tigers and wolves, plus many famous achievements and deeds in the world, among these big landlords and In the eyes of the local rich lords, they are already big figures who reach the sky. Such a person descends in front of them like a **** descending from the earth, and treats them very respectfully and politely. It's both love and glory. Especially compared to the fact that the Li family in Longxi forcibly sent them to the White Scorpion Gang in Heishi Mountain before, it made them inexplicably more grateful to Wang Junlin.
Of course, the main role here is that Wang Junlin controls their life and death at this time.
Is it okay not to borrow money? Of course, you are in charge of your food, but if you don’t borrow it, the consequences can’t be up to you. In times of disaster, in order to prevent the people from rebelling because of hunger, it can be said that no matter the civil or military officials, they will do whatever it takes to maintain the civilian population. This "all price" includes the lives of these landlords. If you don't want to borrow food, you have to borrow it. The mouth, to force you to find out where you hide your food, and then cut you off with a single knife, and will publicize that this person is ignorant of the general situation, but he is indifferent to the life and death of the people in his family, his conscience and morality are so bad that they are bleeding, Killing a morally corrupt person will only applaud the people, and no one will complain about him. What's more, these people were considered to have participated in the scheme against Wang Junlin before, so how dare they refuse.
The banquet at the time of the catastrophe was very simple. Each person at the banquet had three simple dishes, two meat and one vegetable, three courses and a bowl of millet rice. There was no wine. They ate very happily. They are all rich men and people who have seen the world. What delicacies have you never eaten? Although the meal was simple, it was served by Marquis Qin An himself after all, this honor is not something that anyone can dream of.
The content of the food is not important, what is important is the person who invites the dinner. Wang Junlin personally accompanied him as the host, and often replaced the wine with water, respecting the landlords and nobles, and everyone's vanity was greatly satisfied , a simple meal for the host and guest to enjoy.
In addition, this special banquet was also attended by Li Fengmu, the eldest son of the Li family in Longxi, who sat at the first seat on Wang Junlin's right hand. Just like when he was on Heishi Mountain, Wang Junlin gave him a very high courtesy, but this son Sitting next to Wang Junlin, he was already terrified to the extreme in his heart. He behaved extremely unbearably in front of Wang Junlin, like a servant, which surprised all the nobles and big landlords secretly.
Li Fengmu was already afraid of Wang Junlin, but after experiencing the arrest of Heishishan, his fear became even more serious. Today he also witnessed Wang Junlin ordering the killing of more than a hundred of their lackeys and more than a dozen of them. However, these were not enough to make him terrified of Wang Junlin to the extreme. What really made him fear Wang Junlin like a devil was something Wang Junlin did to him last night.
Wang Junlin has sent people all over Jincheng for the past few days, and finally found some raw materials for making vomit water. He used vomit water on Li Fengmu last night. This is not controlled by the brain, Wang Junlin asked What, the experience of what he said involuntarily stimulated Li Fengmu a lot.
When Wang Junlin first used the vomit water on the worm monster, the worm monster's inhuman will and extraordinary mind were very stimulating, and he didn't speak for half a month. This incident allowed Wang Junlin to break the worm demon's inner defenses, and more or less convinced Wang Junlin of the worm monster, so that the two of them had the current cooperative relationship.
However, Li Fengmu's will and mind are much different from that of the insect monster. It is foreseeable that Li Fengmu has lived in fear of Wang Junlin all his life.
…
…
After the Li family in Longxi was completely defeated by Wang Junlin in Jincheng, the governor of Yongzhou, Wang Tong, woke up.
