"I think you misunderstood, these five hundred quintals of grain do not represent the Shen family, but I personally donated. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" A faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Kang's mouth, and he was not annoyed by the teasing of the middle-aged fat man.

"Yo, you kid have a good conscience, don't you? Five hundred quintals is not too much, but it is not too little, do you have so much food to donate as an idle young master of the Shen family? The middle-aged man showed a hint of banter in his eyes, and looked at Shen Kang with a hint of pride.

"Mr. Shen Qian led the army to fight against the White Lotus Sect and ensure the safety of my Lingnan side, as a member of Lingnan, I should do my best to donate materials, grain and grass." There was no excitement and anger in Shen Kang's eyes, he looked at the middle-aged man with a calm expression, and said slowly: "I did what a scholar should do, but you are rich and should be the first to donate, instead of asking me whether I donate more or less, I believe that no matter how much or how little you donate, it is a heart, Shen Qian will not donate more for you, just be special with you, I donate less, I will stay away from me." ”

"Don't provoke me with words, I originally planned to donate 600 quintals of food." There was a gloom in the eyes of the middle-aged fat man, and it was just a matter of being suppressed by the Shen family, was he not as good as a hairy guy from the Shen family.

"Thank you for your generosity, after Mr. Shen Qian gets these grain and grass materials, he will definitely work hard to kill the enemy and ensure the safety of Lingnan." Under the stimulation of Shen Kang and the middle-aged fat man, the people present donated three hundred, and I donated two hundred, the atmosphere suddenly rose, and a trace of an indifferent smile appeared on the corner of Xia Yuanxu's mouth, and it was only at this time that he understood why Shen Yan had to travel lightly, in addition to weapons and equipment, he only brought two days' rations, and it turned out that the grain and grass materials were donated from the local squires.

This move is really clever, which not only shows the determination of the whole family, but also reflects Shen Yan's domineering and courage. Xia Yuanxu didn't seem to have thought about what to do if the local squires were unwilling to donate?

"Thank you folks for believing in the boy, the boy will definitely not let you down." Hearing that the grain and grass materials had been fundraised, Shen Yan appeared in front of everyone again with a hearty smile, and his sincere eyes swept over everyone present one by one.

"In order to reflect the determination to defend Lingnan and not to ignite the flames of war in front of our eyes, this official decided to send an advance team to sweep the White Lotus Sect around Lingnan in the afternoon, and I hope that you will send grain and grass materials to the deserted woodland in the south of the city before noon, which will be used as a temporary school ground for our officers to train soldiers. Of course, if you have the heart, you can also join, after all, there is a lot of power in numbers, and it will be much faster to get things done. In line with the concept that there are many people who are easy to do, and it also reflects his broad-mindedness, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth.

"Mr. Shen Qian, did you really decide to send an advance team to find the White Lotus Sect?" A man in a gray robe in his early fifties, with a hint of worry on his face, boldly met Shen Yan's gaze and asked loudly.

"Yes, there is no need for this official to deceive everyone for these little things." Hearing someone questioning, an inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, and his eyes contained sincerity looking at the man in gray robes, and the man's information flashed in his mind: This person's surname is Mu, who runs an inn and a green building, and Shen Yan used to patronize the business of the shopkeeper Mu before.

"It's just that the grass people heard that the White Lotus Sect has 200,000 male soldiers, may I ask how many soldiers there are under the command of Shen Qian, is it inappropriate to attack rashly?" The shopkeeper relied on himself to be more familiar with Shen Yan, and looked directly at Shen Yan's eyes, as if he was not at all stunned by Shen Yan's bright and peaceful gaze.

"The shepherd's shopkeeper runs an inn, and it is not surprising to occasionally hear that the White Lotus Sect is strong. However, did the shepherd shopkeeper hear that the 200,000 male soldiers of the White Lotus Sect had gathered in one place? The corners of Shen Yan's mouth smiled slightly, and with a hint of irresistible look in his eyes, he glanced at everyone present faintly. No, the shepherd only heard that the White Lotus Sect has 200,000 soldiers, but he doesn't know where these 200,000 are deployed? ”

"Pastoral shopkeeper, based on your news channel, I don't know if what this official said is right?" After finishing speaking, a teasing look appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, and he looked at the shopkeeper lightly.

"This ......" Hearing Shen Yan's inquiry, a trace of sweat appeared on the forehead of the shopkeeper, and a trace of flutter appeared in his eyes.

"Shepherd's shopkeeper, this official will help you recall, did you suddenly have an extra nursing home in Yicuilou under your name seven months ago, surnamed Niu, very skilled, since he served as the nursing home of Yicuilou, no one dares to eat 'overlord chicken' in Yicuilou, and there are also two more nursing homes in your house, although they are usually not obvious, but they are all introduced by the surname Niu." Shen Yan didn't want to hold on to the shopkeeper, but he took the initiative to bump into it, how could he let it go easily.

After listening to Shen Yan's words, the shepherd's shopkeeper seemed to be a quail with a drooping head, and a hint of surprise and gray appeared in his eyes.

"Everyone, what do you hear, wow, the White Lotus Sect has 200,000 soldiers, how can we resist, just as soon as the White Lotus Sect comes, we will raise the white flag, which can not only avoid the scourge of swords, but also keep our own money bags, anyway, no matter who rules Lingnan, as long as you don't deprive you of the existing interests in your hands, anyway, there are tall people on top of the sky when the sky falls." Shen Yan no longer looked at the look of the shepherd shopkeeper at all, there was a faint anger in his eyes, the essence of this group of people was here, they only cared about their own interests, so they would not care about the life and death of others.

"This official can tell you that the main force of the White Lotus Sect is in Xiangzhou Mansion, after all, Xiangzhou Mansion is the capital of Huaibei County, as long as Xiangzhou Mansion is defeated, it is equivalent to taking Huaibei County in a political sense. The rest of the forces were scattered in various provinces to suppress the contemporary magnates and gentry. A faint sneer appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, and he glanced at the people present without the slightest emotion in his eyes, no matter how much he designed and worked hard, they still didn't show 100% sincerity, it didn't matter, after all, people are selfish and understandable. However, you can be selfish, you can't affect the overall situation, you can't come out and say negative things.

"Don't think that the White Lotus Sect hasn't attacked Lingnan yet, it's because Lingnan is backed by Ningjiang County, and don't think that Lingnan is in charge of you, and the White Lotus Sect doesn't dare to come. This official can tell you: The White Lotus Sect did not come to attack Lingnan, it was because the White Lotus Sect sent people to infiltrate Lingnan, infiltrate, disintegrate and make money, which became the cost of the White Lotus Sect's army expansion, don't think that this matter is far away from you, maybe they are hiding in your mansion. A faint sneer appeared in Shen Yan's eyes.

"Don't think that this official is alarmist, as soon as he entered Lingnan, he successfully captured a high-ranking member of the White Lotus Sect, and then used him as bait to successfully trap and kill nine bandits of the White Lotus Sect, including two Dharma protectors. In this matter, you can ask Lin Zhixian for verification, from beginning to end, Lin Zhixian participated. When Shen Yan said this, he glanced at everyone present without any emotion in his eyes.

"This ......" Hearing Shen Yan's words, a trace of embarrassment appeared on everyone's faces.
