"What do you say that people have already starved to death in Jiangyang, and more than 3,000 people have starved to death, how can this kind of thing happen, especially in this area under my hands?" Although Shen Feng was already physically and mentally prepared, he was still very surprised when he learned the news for the first time, because in his thoughts, this situation was basically impossible.

The place where Shen Feng made his fortune was actually called Luzhou, and later changed its name to Jiangyang, which was also to reduce the influence of other places, changed the name of a city, and announced that he had *** for this city, and Shen Feng was still very affectionate for such a place, so even if he left the city, he would often take care of the people in this city, so that the people here could live a good life.

And in order to be able to manage this city conveniently, Shen Feng also specially sent his henchmen, that is, Li Xiang, to let him manage here, he is not only Shen Feng's right-hand man, but also a strange person, with such a person in management, then things will become much simpler.

But now that Shen Feng actually learned that there was a famine in the place where he once made his fortune, wasn't this just a slap in his face? Obviously, he thought that he had produced enough food to at least ensure that the people under his command had no worries about food and clothing, but at this time, he realized that he seemed to be thinking too naïve.

"What the hell is going on? Tell me quickly!" Shen Feng immediately wanted to know the real reason for the famine.

As far as Shen Feng is concerned, the 3,000 people who starved to death are actually nothing, but the impact is very bad, because in this way, people in other places will doubt his ability as the city lord, because the people under his command are all starving to death, how can this feed the people in other regions.

Especially because at this time, Shen Feng is still the master of China, which makes his status even more outstanding, since he is already in a high position, whether he has an excellent performance or a particularly bad performance, he will be seen by people, and then remembered in his heart, and he will always talk about it in the future.

"I haven't told anyone else about this matter yet, because I know that the impact of this matter is very bad, and if I tell other people, it may cause a lot of unnecessary trouble, so now I have been keeping it a secret, since they have all been in front of the city lord, then I will tell the truth!" Xu Xing hurriedly said.

"You've done a very good job, if it's something that has a very big impact, don't tell anyone about it, because it's likely to cause other people to be unhappy, or let these people attack us, if you can handle it internally, then take care of it yourself!" Shen Feng already had a bad premonition, so he felt that if the people under his command made a mistake, even if they had to punish them, they should not be punished in public in the end.

After Xu Xing heard this, he said: "If this matter wants to be dealt with internally, I think it is still very difficult, because this matter has spread among the people, if you don't deal with this matter publicly, the public will be angry, and the people below will think that you are unfair to the city lord, and you will protect the people under your hands, but you can't take into account the needs of the masses of the people."

"Let's not talk about this first, just tell me what the situation is, only when I know the accurate situation, I can move on to the next step!" Shen Feng said.

"It's actually very simple, it all started when I was three days ago, when I went there to prepare for a rest, because my mother set up a mound for my father over there, and I need to worship him every year, and this year she was too lazy to go and let me worship, so I went over, on the one hand, to worship my dead father, and on the other hand, to be able to give me a rest, because I had been running around all over the world before, and my body was tired, so I wanted to rest for half a month......

Next, Xu Xing told him about his experience in going to Jiangyang, and after saying this experience, Shen Feng was also listening carefully, because he wanted to know what was happening in Jiangyang, especially why there was a large-scale famine, and it was okay to say that there was a famine in other places, after all, the emperor was far away, and it was not so easy to transfer grain, but

It is actually half a day's journey from Jiangyang to Yuzhou, and it is not difficult to transfer grain, but there is a famine right under the nose, and I have to say that there is a very strange thing in it.

It turned out that when Xu Xing went to Jiangyang, she was already thinking about her next action, first of all, she went back to her home, then took a rest, prepared the items that needed to be worshipped, and then went to her father's grave to burn incense and paper.

What was once a bustling city is now a bit dilapidated, and there are many people walking the streets like walking dead, looking listless, like the living dead.

After Xu Xing found out about this situation, she hurriedly found the people around her and asked what was going on, but she could only know one thing from their mouths, that is, the famine had come, and they had not received food for several days, even if they worked hard, they could not support themselves, but in many hotels and other entertainment venues, every day was full of lights, and many young people had left here to look for food in other places.

Some of the old and infirm could not walk, so they had to stay in the city and wait for hunger to come.

"City Lord Li is so ruthless, we all thought he would give relief, but we didn't expect that he just pinched the grain in his own hands, just didn't hand it over, if it was necessary for us to work and then exchange for food, everyone was a diligent person who would choose to work, but he neither set up a post, nor let the people under his hands have food, so he pinched the grain in his hands, constantly squeezed people, and the people below were really unable to live." An old man answered Xu Xing's question like this, it turned out that they all felt that they couldn't live anymore, so they were desperate for the future.

Xu Xing was very puzzled about the emergence of this situation, because it was obvious that Yuzhou often sent food to Jiangyang, just to worry that there would be a shortage of food on Jiangyang's side, but after dispatching food many times, there was still the same lack of food here and even starved to death, which seemed very strange.

After learning of this situation, Xu Xing had already thought of his task for the first time, originally he needed to go to the grave of his father, but now he had to manage it after seeing this situation, so now he can only start to investigate this matter, among which the granary has become the most important place, because the transferred grain has been sent here.

"Originally, I wanted to take a vacation, but now there is no hope for a vacation, I can only investigate this trivial matter, and I don't know why there is a chance to appear, is there anyone who is unwilling to hand over the food?" Xu Xing said.

Later, in the middle of the night, Xu Xin quietly went to the granary, where he used his ability to break a string of big locks outside the door, so that the lock cylinder fell off, so he quietly entered the granary, originally wanted to see the grain in the granary, but when she went in, she couldn't see the grain, there were a few fat mice running around on the ground, and she could vaguely see some scattered corn on the ground.

The golden corn fell to the ground, but it was very scarce, and only these rats were running around in the granary, and these rats were much larger than the rats at home, because judging by their size, they were already very fat.

"It's really a bunch of rats, I didn't see the grain, but I saw the fat rats!" Xu Xing muttered in her heart.

At this time, Xu Xing suddenly smelled a strange smell, so she immediately started to smell it with her nose, although the smell was very light, but she still smelled it.

"It's a little wrong with this smell, it seems to have smelled it somewhere, but where does the smell come from in the granary, it can't be that there is moldy grain, right?" Xu Xing's heart was even more puzzled.

Then she continued to walk forward, and suddenly saw that there were black shadows in this empty granary, which looked relatively huge, and when she looked closer, she found that it was a huge oil barrel, and this was the source of many strange smells, so she suddenly realized that these oil barrels were all contained

Gasoline, so the smell I smelled just now is actually the smell of gasoline after volatilization.

"Isn't it forbidden to have flammable and explosive items in the warehouse? In this case, who would dare to bring gasoline here, is it really an ambitious leopard gall who is not afraid of fire? If there is a fire, a fire here can burn down the entire granary!" Xu Xing thought silently in her heart.

But at this time, he suddenly thought of a serious problem, it seems that in ancient times, there was often a shortage of grain, and if someone came to check, there would often be a situation where the fire dragon burned the warehouse and the Yin soldiers borrowed grain, in fact, the officials in charge of the granary said nonsense.

"Could it be that all the food in this granary has been taken away, and this gasoline is used to meet the inspection? If someone from above came to inspect it, it would burn down all the granaries here, so that there would only be a guilty of dereliction of duty, but in the end the problem of food shortage would be solved!" Xu Xing suddenly realized, and now she finally understands why she puts a gasoline head in it, just to ignite the fire at a critical time.

"These damned people are so bold that they swallowed so much food, not to mention, and they also want to destroy the corpses with a fire, no, this matter must be investigated!" Xu Xing said in her heart.

At this time, although Xu Xing had given up the idea of killing the bandits, the sense of justice in her heart had not disappeared, because she knew that she had to uphold justice for ordinary people, otherwise these ordinary people would not be able to survive in the apocalypse, so for this goal, she also wanted to investigate this matter, who took the food away.

So Xu Xing went to many nearby hotels, in these hotels there are very rich meals, including chicken, duck and fish and other rare items, obviously at this time, many people even eat a full meal without results, now rich people can still afford to eat big fish and meat, this is very strange, needless to say, it can be understood that many people will belong to others of the food to their own body, so they will eat and wear without worry.

And this matter is also coincidental, after Xu Xing came to the hotel, he quickly met an old acquaintance, that is, Li Xiang.

Li Xiang is now the city lord of Jiangyang, and the people under his command need to consult him no matter what they do, otherwise this matter will not be completed.

After Li Xiang appeared here, many people in the hotel came to greet many hostesses, standing in a row, welcoming their city lord to enter, and these hostesses were wearing red and bright cheongsams, and the cheongsam slits were very high, and they were all up to the thighs between walking, and a lot of white skin would be revealed inadvertently.

Xu Xing frowned, and said in his heart, "I didn't expect this guy to become so extravagant and wasteful, and he even came to the hotel for a casual meal, and he needed so many people to welcome him!"
