Chapter 256: Food Robbery (5)
In fact, escorting these people back, if there is nothing for them to do, will only increase her burden, after all, she can't let these people starve to death, then she has to feed them.
Just like He Guangqing said, it's not that he doesn't want to arrest people, but he can't support so many prisoners at all.
However, Ye Tianqing has food, even if she can feed more people, she just suffers from having no suitable reason to take food out of the space.
It's just that, of course, the others don't know what she thinks, no, after Li Zhuangtou was as happy as everyone else, he came to her with a worried face: "Third Miss, the old slave is very happy that the third young lady led everyone to exterminate the two strongholds of the rogues, but the old slave is not happy at this time." ”
"What's the matter, Li Zhuangtou has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Ye Tianqing asked very puzzled.
Since Ye Tianqing arrived at Yejiazhuang, Li Zhuangtou's attitude towards her can be said to have changed and changed, at first he bullied her young, and he may have looked down on her, but now he not only respects her in his heart, and focuses on her everywhere, but also respects her and does not dare to disobey her.
However, as the head of the village, he naturally understands his responsibilities better, so he still stubbornly said: "Third Miss, you know, these days in order to find those missing people, many people have been invited into the mountain, these help to find people not only to eat, but also to eat food, plus our own Zhuangzi people also have to eat, in this way, the amount of food needed every day has increased greatly, and now there is not much food left in the Zhuangzi, even if so much grain is collected today." It is not enough to eat for a few days, not to mention that those who are escorted back will have to give them food in the future, and this burden will be even greater, and the old slave is afraid that because of these people, it will affect our original life. ”
Ye Tianqing nodded when she heard this, her beautiful eyes smiled, and she comforted: "It turns out that Li Zhuangtou was worried about this, and he blamed me for not making it clear to you, that's the case, these people don't need us to feed." They will feed themselves. As for the grain. The grain team of Liangqu Villa will soon bring grain over, and everyone will not go hungry. ”
"In this case, the old slave is relieved." After getting Ye Tianqing's affirmative reply, Li Zhuangtou smiled and spread his brows and left to do things.
In fact. This. Ye Tianqing had a total of nearly three hundred people escorted back. Otherwise, Li Zhuangtou would not be so anxious.
And these people are not only men, but also some women, children and children, after questioning. I learned that they were the family members of some of the rogues.
If you don't feed them in vain, let them do things.
For this reason, after Ye Tianqing had them all settled, they gathered on an open slope at the foot of the mountain, while she stood on a high place, looked at these faces that were either panicked, angry or desperate and said: "I believe everyone already knows who Miss Ben is, what Miss Ben wants to say is that although Miss Ben's father is Northwest Fuyi, Miss Ben does not represent the government, and she only disposes of you people because she doesn't want to see you burn, kill, rob, commit misdeeds, and cause trouble in the place anymore." ”
"Because it is not an official action, and I know that it is not your intention for you to embark on this road, so Miss Ben will not send you to the yamen for trial, but since you have become a prisoner of our Yejiazhuang today, then, your life belongs to Yejiazhuang, whether you live or die, it is all up to us Yejiazhuang."
"Of course, Miss Ben doesn't want your life, but she won't raise you in vain, if you want to live, you have to do things, I believe everyone can understand this."
"And what Miss Ben needs you to do, it's actually very simple, that is, all adult men join our Yejiazhuang's bandit team, and go together to suppress bandits in the next few days."
"Ah, let's go to the bandits? How can it be? ”
"Yes, is this Miss Ye San joking, so she is not afraid that we will run away?"
"Isn't that sending us to death?"
"Men go to suppress bandits, so what are we women and children doing? You won't give us food, will you? ”
……
"Third Miss can't do this, these people don't do bad things, how can they be with our people?"
"That is, what if they collude with other bandits and deal with our people in Yejiazhuang?"
"yes, that's too dangerous."
……
For a while, not only the rogues gathered together were buzzing there, but the villagers of Yejiazhuang, who were watching the excitement, whispered.
Ye Tianqing had already expected the reaction of these people, so after finishing speaking, he stood quietly until everyone discussed for a while, and after the voice gradually stopped, he glanced around with cold eyes, and continued tepidly: "Miss Ben knows that whether it is a newcomer or the original people in Yejiazhuang have opinions on this, but what Miss Ben wants to tell everyone is that this matter has been decided and it is imperative, you have no other choice but to carry it out." ”
The clear and bright voice reached everyone's ears, and it turned out that the people in Yejiazhuang all got up when they heard it, and stopped whispering, and those rogues seemed to be blinded by the behavior of Ye Tianqing and the subsequent people in Yejiazhuang, and no one spoke for a while.
Ye Tianqing didn't say much, turned to Lin Hongan and Peng Changfeng, who were guarding the side, and said: "Two captains, you are responsible for this selection of people, no matter what means are used, after three days, I need to see a team of at least three hundred people." ”
The two captains immediately stood up and solemnly agreed: "Yes, the subordinates obey the order." ”
Fortunately, after Ye Tianqing came to Yejiazhuang, he asked people to enclose the entire Yejiazhuang with a wall, and now so many people have been brought back at once, although there are not enough houses for them to live in, but it is no problem to find an open space and let them live on the ground like they did in the stronghold of the Liukou a few days ago.
On the one hand, there are walls, and on the other hand, Ye Tianqing has already done something to those men who look stronger, and he is not worried that these people will escape.
That's why she's so bold enough to let these newly captured rogues participate in the next action.
After her Qingyu secret advanced to the third layer, the true qi in her body was much more abundant than before, and it was even easier to penetrate the true qi into the human meridians, without the need for physical contact with people, even with the help of tree branches.
Fortunately, everyone in Yejiazhuang is now completely compliant with her, and she doesn't need to explain.
In the dead of night, everything was quiet, a slender black shadow swooped out of the main courtyard like a raccoon cat, and appeared in a treetop in the distance after a while, and then, the black shadow went out of Yejiazhuang and disappeared into the big green mountain on the side.
