Chapter 237: Willing or Not
Zhu Daolin himself didn't expect that he would have such a great prestige unconsciously.
Seeing that the cheers and shouts were endless for a long time, Zhu Daolin had to stretch out his hands and make a gesture of pressing down, and the huge noise gradually stopped.
Zhu Daolin put down his hand, stood majestically, scanned the audience, and said loudly until all the noise had subsided: "Brothers, please don't shout when I speak, this is the minimum politeness, and it is the virtue of my Ming people!" β
Zhu Daolin's words made the audience awe-inspiring, who would dare to be without virtue if he had risen to the height of morality?
I only heard Zhu Daolin continue: "Brothers, let me first introduce my identity to you...... Just now, many of you called me Daoist Xiaozhu, yes, I am indeed a Taoist priest, a deacon and Taoist leader of the Ziyang Temple of the Shangqing School in Maoshan, and at the same time, I am also the commander of the four products of the Nanjing Five Army Governor's Mansion ordered by the current emperor, and I am also the commander of the Nanjing Firearms Factory, and I am also the chief official of the Jiangnan Naval Division Shangyuan Qianhu where you are at the moment, please be quiet......"
The audience erupted in exclamations again, and Zhu Daolin had to wait for everyone to calm down.
The result made Zhu Daolin very satisfied, and in less than half a minute, more than 17,000 people in the audience shut up again.
Zhu Daolin nodded and continued: "Brothers, the bursting of the Yellow River caused a large number of poor people to die, and millions of fathers and villagers were displaced. β
"I'm sure you've also seen that millions of disaster-stricken villagers have fled to the south with their families, or have fled to the south alone, and the local government has closed the city gates and stood by along the way, completely ignoring the lives of millions of people and villagers, including you, how many people died on the way to flee? And how many people are still crawling hundreds of miles to the north? β
"Here I want to ask, what happened to this world? Doesn't God have long eyes! β
The audience was silent, and countless people recalled the hardships and hardships on the way to Nanzhili, panicked and desperate, remembered the endless corpses on the side of the road, and thought of their lost relatives, and couldn't help but have red eyes and tears.
Zhu Daolin held down the hilt of the sword with his left hand, and raised his right hand to point to the audience: "Brothers, you are lucky, compared with the countless people who were drowned by the flood, died of illness, starvation, and bullying on the road, you are lucky!" β
"Because I Zhu Daolin and the Taoist priests of Ziyang Temple, as well as the gentlemen and soldiers around me, treat you as my own fathers and fellow villagers, when no one helps you, our Sailor brothers stopped training, drove warships and cargo ships, crossed the river, and brought you back one by one, the Taoist priests of Ziyang Temple, and the brothers and sisters of Hushan Manor kept cooking porridge and kept receiving the poor villagers who kept coming."
"Until now, the officers and soldiers of our naval division are still bringing over the fathers and villagers on the north bank, and before I came here, I had already brought back more than 80,000 people, and they are still doing ...... Do you know how long the officers and men of the sailor who brought you back have been working? They worked day and night for two days and two nights, and they are still doing it! β
Everyone was moved.
Xu Wentao and more than a dozen heavily armed veterans behind Zhu Daolin also had flushed eyes, puffed up their chests unconsciously, and felt extremely proud.
Zhu Daolin took a deep breath: "Brothers, do you know who these two gentlemen beside me are?" Let me tell you, the older one is called Ye Liangchen, the eldest gentleman who is respected by all of us in Hushan Manor, and this younger one is the general manager in charge of all the money in our Hushan Manor, Mr. Feng Shengtai Feng. β
"In addition, there are more than a dozen gentlemen like them who are busy and don't have time to come, and it is they who put forward the proposal of going all out to resettle the millions of villagers affected by the disaster, and they are working day and night for the resettlement of the villagers......"
"However, after all, we have too few people, and there are too many villagers who have been affected by the disaster, and we don't have enough manpower! Not to mention anything else, now it is impossible to maintain order, and it is impossible to let every villager drink a bowl of porridge, and there are hundreds of thousands of villagers gathered in the north of Jinling City and no one cares, most of them are honest and good people, but there are also many bad people! β
"Among the old folks who are oppressed, there are many shameless people who bully the old and the weak and bully women, we want to take care of it, but we don't have manpower, and we can't take care of it for a while!"
"So, I thought of you lonely brothers, and of you brothers who were the first to escape with their strong bodies, and now I ask you, just one sentence: Are you willing to obey my Zhu Daolin's orders and work with me to protect the hundreds of thousands of helpless fathers and villagers? Would you like to? β
"Yes! My lord, I would like to! β
"My lord, we listen to you!"
"Your Excellency, please speakβ"
The chaotic response made everyone behind Zhu Daolin happy, but Zhu Daolin was very dissatisfied, lowered his face and stretched out his hands, and when the noise calmed down a little, he suddenly yelled: "Tell me, do you want to?" β
"Yes!"
This time the voice was much cleaner.
Zhu Daolin was still not very satisfied, he leaned forward while holding down the hilt of the sword, his eyes widened and he roared again: "Would you like to?" β
"Willingβ"
The majestic roar with a rough roar shook the sky, shaking Zhu Daolin's ears and swaying the green leaves on the hill, like a violent wind. (To be continued......)
