When Zhao Yu and the others came to the grain release place at the entrance of Zheng Village, the grain was already being released there.

I saw that at this time, at the entrance of Zheng Village, a row of low tables had been placed, and then the young people of Zheng Township placed wooden barrels that needed to be surrounded by adults from the village on the low tables, and then, the women of Zheng Township lifted the lid of the bucket and held wooden spoons to prepare to distribute food.

When the lid of the barrel was lifted, the aroma of rice porridge emanated from the barrel, and the hungry refugees immediately took a few puffs of the fragrance.

"Line up and come one by one."

"Don't rob, everyone has a share."

Under the command of several village guards, the large number of refugees here lined up in an orderly manner, but they seemed to be very anxious, looking ahead on tiptoe in the procession, secretly swallowing spittle.

"I don't know what to eat?"

Out of curiosity, Zhao Yu also took Jingnu, Zhang Ji, and Cao An to get up.

Of course, he didn't need to stand in line, and walked straight to the low tables where the grain was kept.

At this time, in front of those low tables, the guard Zheng Luo was talking to several women from Zheng Township, and when he saw Zhao Yu coming, Zheng Luo immediately looked over.

"I'm just here to see if I don't exist."

Zhao Yu waved his hand and said.

Glancing at Zhang Ji, Zheng Luo recalled Zhang Ji's reminder, and didn't dare to ask, after nodding, he took a wooden bowl about the size of an adult's hands from a woman from Zheng Xiang beside him, and then scooped a full bowl from the wooden barrel with a wooden spoon.

Immediately, Zheng Luo put the wooden bowl full of porridge on the low table, and in front of everyone, he inserted a pair of chopsticks straight on it, and it can be clearly seen that this pair of chopsticks is inserted in this bowl of porridge, and there is no intention of pouring it down.

Standing chopsticks don't fall!

This is a bowl of thick porridge that does not fall down with chopsticks, and it is by no means the kind of food that is as thin as clear water to fool people.

Following Zheng Luo's movements, the rest of the township guards or Zheng Township Qingzhuang, who were responsible for distributing food, also followed Zheng Luo's example, scooped out a bowl of porridge from each wooden barrel and inserted chopsticks straight into it.

And the chopsticks on each bowl of porridge are not moving.

Many of the refugees saw this with a satisfied smile on their faces.

"Let's get started." Zheng Luo said to the township marquis and Zheng Xiangqingzhuang, who were in charge of distributing food.

Immediately, grain began to be put here, and each barrel full of porridge corresponded to a group of refugees, and under the command of many overseers, the scene was quite orderly and there was no confusion at all.

At this time, Zhao Yu pointed to the bowls of porridge with chopsticks standing and asked Zhang Jidao: "Is this also a rule?" ”

"Yes." Zhang Ji nodded and explained: "This is also the rule set by the township, the townsman requires the porridge where the grain is put at the work point not to fall, and it is not allowed to take the porridge to fool around." ”

Zhao Yu nodded slightly.

Although his father, Luyang Xianghou, seems to be indifferent by nature, he is actually a very upright person, and of course he will not play any tricks in this kind of thing.

At this time, a refugee received rice porridge and a pair of chopsticks, and walked past Zhao Yu and others with an expectant face, Zhao Yu was surprised to see that there were some leaf-like things in the rice porridge in the refugee's hand.

"What's that? What is the leaf? Zhao Yu asked Zhang Jidao.

Zhang Ji was still in charge of the supervisor here a few days ago, and he didn't need to look at him to know what Zhao Yu was asking, so he explained: "It's Doushu." The leaf-like thing that the second son saw was the stems and leaves of the bean stalks. After speaking, he specially added: "It's all edible." ”

Through Zhang Ji's explanation, Zhao Yu knew that the Luyang townsman felt that the porridge was too light, so he asked the site to put some beans and bean leaves when cooking porridge.

In fact, it is very nutritious, and more importantly, it has a higher yield than wheat grain, and the market price is cheaper than grain.

All in all, it was a win-win situation, the Luyang County Ya was able to save a lot of food, and the refugees were very satisfied with the taste of the bean mushroom.

"Pretty smart, Daddy."

Zhao Yu chuckled and secretly praised his father, the Marquis of Luyang.

At this moment, Zhao Yu suddenly caught a glimpse of a few people walking from Zheng Village out of the corner of his eye, and the person at the head was walking swaggeringly, making people feel like they were empty-eyed.

"Who is that?" Zhao Yu asked Zhang Jidao towards Nunu in the distance.

Zhang Ji squinted his eyes and looked at it for a long time, and shook his head in confusion: "I don't know about the lowly position, and the lowly position has never seen these people." ”

Seeing that even Zhang Ji was not clear, Zhao Yu was a little puzzled in his heart, and looked at those people quietly.

Under his gaze, those people walked to the grain release place without any scruples, and the leader pointed at the township marquis and Zheng Xiangqingzhuang who were putting grain: "Hey, there is too much land!" …… And you, don't need to give them so much. ”

When those townsmen and Zheng Xiangqing were at a loss, Zheng Luo walked up to the man and greeted him with a fist: "The king is in charge." ”

"Zheng Luo."

The person who was replaced as the king's steward greeted Zheng Luo with a big grin, looking at his expression, he didn't care about Zheng Luo's identity as the guard of the Luyang Township Marquis's Mansion, as if he was ordering his subordinates, and said to Zheng Luo: "Didn't I tell you yesterday, you gave too much land, what are you polite to these guys?" It would be nice to keep them alive. ”

Zheng Luo said with an unchanged face: "Steward Wang, this is the rule set by Duke Liu and the townsman, and we dare not disobey it." ”

"It's a brainstorm."

Steward Wang muttered a few words in a low voice, and Zheng Luo didn't care about what he said afterwards, because he saw Zhao Yu waving to him not far away.

"Steward Wang, I have to leave for a while." Zheng Luo clenched his fists and said.

The steward didn't care, waved his hand and said casually, "Go, go, I'll watch for you for a while." ”

Zheng Luo hesitated for a moment, didn't say anything, walked straight to Zhao Yu and his party in the distance, and clenched his fist towards Zhao Yu: "Second son." ”

"Hmm." Zhao Yu nodded, and then nodded towards the Wang steward in the distance, and asked, "Who is that?" ”

Zheng Luo glanced back and explained: "Second son, that is the Wang Zhi that the lowly party just said, it is said that he is the steward of the Marquis of Ruyang, and he only came here yesterday to assist us in supervising the refugees...... However, this person is extremely perfunctory about the relief, and most of the time he drinks with a few close entourages in Zheng Township, and only comes to the construction site to check on the situation when he is full of wine and food......"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but add: "Actually, according to the humble position, this guy might as well not come." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Zhao Yu glanced at Zheng Luo, and was about to turn his gaze on Wang Zhi, the Marquis of Ruyang in the distance, and watched him stand at the low table where the grain was put from afar, preaching to those refugees in a domineering manner.

"Thanksgiving, you damn fellows, what you eat in your mouths is the food allocated by the Marquis of Ruyang, my family......"

"Hey, the one over there, what are you doing slowly? Hurry up and go back to the ditch pit after eating! Want to be lazy, don't you? ”

With that, the king walked up to a refugee who was squatting on the ground and kicked him.

Unexpectedly, the refugee moved quickly, and he stood up first to avoid it, and Wang Zhi's foot just brushed past him.

"Y-What do you do?"

The refugee asked angrily, "Why are you kicking me?" ”

"What's wrong with kicking you?" The king scolded domineeringly: "You are lazy here, I can't teach you a lesson?" ”

"Iβ€”I'm not lazy, I haven't finished my meal yet."

The refugee looked big and thick, but he seemed to be an honest man, and he explained with a red neck.

"How long can you eat a bowl of porridge?"

"Iβ€”I just got the porridge ......"

"Whew!" Spat on the ground, the king sneered and scolded: "What do you untouchables think, do you think I don't know? Let me tell you this group of untouchables, this time it is for the sake of Liu County's order and the face of the Luyang Township Marquis, that my Ruyang Marquis sent someone to transport grain to your group of untouchables to eat...... According to me, you untouchables are not dead yet! ”

Hearing this, the refugees who were queuing up nearby to receive the food all showed angry expressions and glared at Wang Zhi fiercely.

Seeing this, the king scolded again: "What are you staring at? You untouchables, don't stay in Jingshui and Wancheng, and come to Luyang County to plague Luyang County, so that I, Ruyang, have to allocate a lot of money and food to Luyang County to feed you untouchables......"

Seeing this Wang Zhi scolding in the distance, Zhao Yu frowned deeply.

On the side, Jing Nu also frowned and said, "This person is so hateful, and his words are so ugly......"

"yes." Zhang Ji also echoed: "It's three points more hateful than Cao An." ”

Originally, Cao An was also nodding in favor of Jingnu's words, but when he heard Zhang Ji's words, he said angrily: "Zhang Ji, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Huh? Cao An, you're there, oh, sorry, I didn't say it. Zhang Ji apologized insincerely.

Because Zhao Yu was by his side, Cao An was not good at arguing with Zhang Ji, and while looking at Wang Zhi in the distance, he said, "I'm too lazy to bother with you." …… But that guy is really annoying, helping refugees is the credit of Liu Gong and the townsman, what does it have to do with him Ruyang Hou? Moreover, the group of refugees, although hateful, was so mercilessly scolded......"

As he spoke, he turned his head to Zhao Yu and said, "Second son, that guy is not enough to succeed and more than to lose, if he continues to be here, I am afraid that it will provoke a riot of refugees, and I must find a way to let him leave." ”

Zhao Yu nodded slightly.

He turned his head and asked Zheng Luo, "Zheng Luo, you just talked to that Wang Zhi, can you let him leave?" ”

"This ......," Zheng Luo had an embarrassed look on his face.

Because he knew very well that Wang Zhi was polite to him, it was completely for the sake of the face of the Luyang Township, but the question was, how could he be qualified to order the other party as a guard in the Luyang Township's mansion?

Seeing the embarrassed look on Zheng Luo's face, Zhao Yu immediately understood.

He just saw that Wang Zhi and Zheng Luo talking, and thought they were familiar with each other, but looking at Zheng Luo's attitude now, it seems that this is not the case.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu walked straight towards the king.

He can't tolerate this guy continuing to stay here and talk nonsense and stir up discontent among the refugees.
