Chapter 401: In the middle of the night

For these unacceptable, Liu Qian did not continue to explain. After the day's porridge was distributed, he took the people away. After a few days, there were fewer and fewer people on the street, and the frequency of soup kitchens changed from twice a day to once a day. The refugees who had been squatting in the corner began to be unhappy when they saw this. On this day, when several of the soup kitcheners were packing up their things and preparing to leave, the refugees stepped forward and surrounded them.

"You guys are so rich, why don't you even let us eat a full meal. There was still some rice in the porridge before, but now, it is getting clearer day by day. It was even reduced to a meal. Are you trying to starve us to death? If we die, aren't you afraid that the court will blame you? ”

"These are the intentions of the masters, and it is useless for you to embarrass us. Besides, isn't the Liu family recruiting, it's you who don't blame anyone. Or do you think that our master should support you for a lifetime. What do you think. "The little guys are not afraid of these victims, in fact, they have long been unaccustomed to these idle victims these days, they are also disaster victims, they have already supported themselves, and they have a place to live, but these people, in order to be lazy, nest at the gate of the city all day long, eat and wait for death, and go to the city to steal if they can't eat. Many merchants are miserable.

Liu Tian sat in the carriage and listened to Lan Zhu's report on the situation in front of him. Liu Tian had already guessed that there would be such a day, so he was not the slightest surprised, "Okay, tell the subordinates of the soup kitchen that you don't need to come here from tomorrow." ”

Back at the mansion, Lan Zhu followed, "Miss, why do you say those disaster victims are so embarrassed, the silver of the big families is not blown by the wind, why do they think that Miss will support them, if you give less, you can't give it, they can't do it, they are really difficult to serve." ”

"Actually, I had long guessed that there would be such a day, but I didn't expect so many people to want to get something for nothing. Lanzhu, inform me to go down, let the little guy guard it in the past few days. Especially at night, beware of people breaking in. ”

"Miss, you mean ......," he shook his head in surprise, "probably not." Liu Tian smiled disapprerovingly, "People are very hungry, and they can do anything." Alright, you go get busy. I'll do the math of today's accounts. "It's not been peaceful outside these days, and Liu Xiangxue went back to the house early. Seeing that she was settling accounts, she stepped forward worriedly, "I heard that there was a disturbance at the city gate today, and you were injured/'

"I was already in trouble when I passed, so I didn't pass, don't worry, I'm fine. However, I have already instructed that from tomorrow onwards, there will be no more soup kitchens, and after today's events, I guess that no one else will give soup again. Those victims have no food, and tomorrow I am afraid that they will cause trouble everywhere. I thought about it for a while, let's close the shop for a few days. ”

"Close the shop again? Is there no other way? "Liu Xiangxue is becoming more and more like a businessman now. After tasting the sweetness of making money, she felt uncomfortable there if she didn't open the door for a day, and now she has to close it for a few days, which is more and more uncomfortable. "Do you want to discuss the affairs of the victims?"

"No, not everyone in this world lives well with their hearts. Those affected will not compromise easily until they have had enough suffering. Wait. "At this time, outside the city gate, the king was sitting in a carriage, and there were several victims outside the carriage, and the butler whispered orders, and after a while, the steward gave them a piece of silver, and then sent them away." Lord, everything is according to your orders, and they are all ordered. ”

"Hmm. Now that you're done, let's go home. That night, more than a dozen victims came from outside the house, and when Liu bought this house, he thought that there were more women in the house, so he deliberately increased the wall a lot more just in case. Nowadays, it is very difficult for the victims to climb over the wall, but since they want to climb over the wall, they can still climb through it with a little effort.

Around the hour, the little maid met the victims who climbed over the wall, and shouted, "Come on, there are thieves in the house......" The voice became higher and higher, and Liu heard the movement outside, put on his clothes and came out to check. Liu Xiangxue also heard it, and the two came out at the same time. Liu Xiangxue saw that the courtyard was brightly lit, and her heart rose directly, "Qian'er, shouldn't you really be a thief?" ”

"It's not a thief, it's a victim." Liu Tian looked determined. took the stick next to him, pulled Liu Xiangxue and said, "Let's go, go over and have a look." Liu Xiangxue was a little worried, "Tilt, let's not go over, in case there are three long and two short, we can't help much." ”

"Eldest sister, what do you say these victims need most now?" Liu Xiangxue didn't know what she meant, and subconsciously replied, "Grain." Food. ”

"The eldest sister is right, all they want is food, as long as we give them food, they won't hurt their lives," Liu Tian didn't actually have to take Liu Xiangxue over, mainly because she was worried that she would be cranky if she was alone, and in addition, it was safer to keep her under her nose. The two came to the backyard, and the housekeeper trotted forward, "Miss, Miss Two......"

"Did you catch it?" The butler shook his head a little embarrassed, "Not yet." There are so many people here today. Only caught two......" Liu tilted his eyebrows, "two? That's enough. Where are they now. The housekeeper said to the hall, and Liu Tian took Liu Xiangxue to the hall. In the hall, the two victims were sitting dirtily on the ground, tied back to back, and when they saw Liu leaning in, they snorted coldly.

Liu Tian knew the two of them, and when there was trouble that day, the two of them had been rushing to the front, looking very experienced, and they should not be fuel-efficient lamps when they were at the border. Now that I'm in the capital, I'm afraid it's getting worse. Now that the things that broke into the mansion overnight have been done, and so many people have been brought with them, how can I think about it.

"Miss Ben is very curious, in the whole capital, the rich and powerful, the mansion is good, no matter which one is much better than my mansion. Why did you choose this place? And brought so many people. Let's talk about it. "The two of them looked like hooligans, and they didn't have the slightest fear or worry of being caught." What to say, just go out for a walk, pass by the way, and have bad intentions. The two of us were just unlucky to get caught. However, it is up to your luck to catch the others. ”

"Really?" Liu Qian smiled and stepped forward, "I guess you're their leader." Seeing that they were silent, Liu Tian confirmed this more and more, "I don't know if you are important in their hearts." Butler, take them away, and go to verify them by the way. The two of them didn't know why, thinking that Liu Tian was going to make a ghost, and immediately messed up, "What do you want to do, let us down, let me tell you, our brother is not easy to mess with, you are just a woman, even if you have some money, you may not be our brother's opponent, you better not act rashly, otherwise, our brother will definitely come back to take revenge." ”

"If you want revenge, you have to be able to get out alive." When a few people came outside, Liu Tian stood in the corridor, looked at the brightly lit courtyard and shouted, "Although I don't know where you are hiding, but you listen, your boss is in my hands, I will give you ten counts, if you don't take the initiative to come out, I will cut off their hands and feet." I've heard that gangsters like you are the most righteous, and today I'm going to see if the rumors are true. ”

"Ten...... Nine...... Eight...... Seven ......" Liu Qian glanced around, but there was no movement at all. The two of them were a little panicked, "Do you think they will come out in this way, don't dream, we do talk about righteousness, but we are not stupid." If you jump in knowing it's a trap, you're a fool. After the man finished speaking, he laughed twice, and Liu Tian turned his head and gave the man a slap, "Shut up, it's noisy." ”

"You dare to beat Lao Tzu, you wait, when Lao Tzu is free, Lao Tzu will definitely kill you." There was a sinister look in the man's eyes. Liu Xiangxue was so frightened that she hurriedly protected Liu Tian, "What do you want to do, you broke into our house first, if you want to take revenge, just go to me directly, and you are not allowed to embarrass my sister." ”

"Big sister, don't talk nonsense with them. Now they are the prisoners, and they won't let me go? That also requires them to have the ability to get out alive today. Liu Tian stopped talking nonsense, and continued to count, behind the rockery not far away, several victims wanted to speak and stopped, "Are we really not going out, depending on what that girl means, if we don't go out, they will really do something to the boss." ”

"What are you afraid of, didn't the boss say just now, if we go out, we will be fools, fools. Do you want to be a fool? When the person next to him heard this, he immediately shook his head, "I don't want to." However, didn't the boss teach us that people in the rivers and lakes must be righteous. If we don't save the boss, we will have no righteousness. I'll be laughed at in the future. The man's face was entangled, and it was not good to do anything.

The man on the far side remained silent, and at this time, Liu Tian counted to one. When the words fell, there was still no movement in the courtyard, Liu Tian retracted his gaze, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, "It seems that your popularity is not very good, they would rather you break your legs than come out to save you." I feel sorry for you. ”

"Hmph, I don't believe you dare to break Lao Tzu's legs." The man looked disdainful, even a little proud. Liu Tian was most disgusted with the attitude of others, and suddenly the knife fell in his hand, and the man came back to his senses, the person was already kneeling on the ground, and the pain between her legs made her gasp, "You...... This vicious woman. ”

"No, do you. Okay, there's one more person. Let's move on. Liu Tian walked to the other side with a stick. This time, the man's face changed in fright, and he didn't dare to say anything, for fear of angering Liu Tian, and the next moment it was her who broke his legs.

"Heroes spare their lives. Heroes spare their lives. Liu leaned down and said with a smile, "You shouldn't have come to my house by accident." Tell me who brought you here. And what benefits did it give you? ”

"Tilt, what do you mean to say......" She thought it was just a simple thief, but she didn't expect that there was such an ulterior secret behind it, and for a while Liu Xiangxue gasped, who wanted to deal with them?
