The squad leader was taken aback, and immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "Young master, so much spiritual food, too much gold is needed, I can't afford to wait, please young master, take back your life." ”

"Everyone is a brother, you don't know my temperament yet, I don't have the face to get it back again, you are all the soldiers my shepherd family relies on the most, and you deserve this reward." In the past, Drasseur, although he was more reckless and reckless, but he was really good to his subordinates, once because there was a big nobleman who injured the dragon soldiers unreasonably, Draxel dared to lead his troops to rush to the other party's house to ask for an explanation, and because of this, he offended many nobles. Perhaps under the influence of his father, the Mu family, who was not born prominently, is very good to his subordinates and soldiers, and is as close as a brother! This is also the main reason why the Mu family has a high reputation in the army.

The Mu family treats the soldiers sincerely, and those soldiers are also willing to die for the Mu family, which is also the key to the Mu family's hidden dragon army, which is always invincible.

Knowing Drassell's character, all the soldiers can only be grateful in their hearts and accept the reward, the shepherd's family is kind to themselves, and the soldiers all know it, and sometimes, they don't need to be polite, because everything they have belongs to the shepherd's family.

"Thank you, young master, for the reward!"

When all the soldiers saw their captain, they had already accepted the reward, and they also knelt down to thank them.

Drasel: "Alright, let's all get up, this thing is very easy to cook, just put it on the fire and cook it, and then peel and eat it, it's very convenient, brothers, you can taste it." Everyone eats and drinks well, and next, we have to hurry. ”

The soldiers seemed to be very curious about this new type of spiritual food, and they formed groups of three or five, and each found a place to make a fire and roast sweet potatoes.

The soldiers gathered around the fire and chatted casually......

"Hey, is this really spiritual food? It smells like a fragrance, and it smells better than military rations, so I don't know what it tastes like. ”

"Didn't you hear, boy? The young master said that this is a high-grade spiritual food, and I have never eaten it, I didn't expect to be lucky enough to eat high-grade spiritual food! Such a large piece, to say the least, it will cost a few hundred gold coins, if it were me, I would be reluctant to take it out and give it to others. ”

"What is the young master doing to us, you don't know yet, in the entire Celestial Empire, it is estimated that there is only a young master, who will distribute this kind of high-grade spiritual food to the soldiers under his hands, or the young master is the best."

"The young master has nothing to say to us, anyway, whatever the young master tells me to do, I will do it!"

…………

As time passes, the delicious sweet potato gradually reveals its fragrance in the flames, and the sweet potatoes produced in the chaotic space are naturally not comparable to ordinary products, just roasted, the fragrance emitted is extremely attractive, and it is estimated that it can be tasted hundreds of meters away.

"Wow, this ...... It smells so good...... Just by roasting it over a fire without adding any seasonings, it will give out this aroma and it will be very delicious. ”

"It's so fragrant, isn't it okay to eat......"

A soldier touched it with his hand and found that the sweet potato was already soft, and he didn't care about burning his mouth and took a bite of it.

A few people around him asked excitedly, "How does it taste?" Say it......"

I saw that the soldier had a happy face and said: "It's so delicious, this is the best thing I've ever eaten in my life, and it's a little sweet, a mouthful of sweetness!" It's amazing......"

Hearing that, many soldiers raised their sweet potatoes in their hands and began to enjoy them!!

After Luo Cheng ate it, he also felt extremely delicious, he didn't expect that this sweet potato was so delicious, and the aura contained in it was very mild, after being absorbed by the human body, it would automatically enter the meridians, and after operation, it would be stored in the dantian, which could make people quickly recover their spiritual power.

"Young master, this ...... This thing must be very expensive. ”

"Hahaha, how about it, it tastes good, everyone can eat with confidence, if this disaster relief is successfully completed, this king will reward it again!"

"Long live the young master!"

"Young Master Xie."

……………………

At this time, a ten-person squad guarding the explosive bear, the team leader was tasting sweet potatoes with a satisfied face, suddenly remembered something, kicked over one of his subordinates, and said: "Hurry up, don't forget the business, the young master has ordered us, let us ask for information, a few of you, go and entertain those bandits, ask me everything the young master wants to know, don't let the young master down!" ”

"Captain, I haven't finished my sweet potatoes, I'll go later! This thing is so delicious......

"No one is stronger than you, hurry up, don't let the young master wait, remember, the young master only wants to know three questions, first, who let these guys ambush the young master? Second, the detailed information of the key people in the hungry wolf village? Third, the tunnel map of the hungry wolf village. Hurry up and get to work. ”

A few of his subordinates stood up angrily and complained, "Hmph, I'll keep it for dinner." These little thieves dare to ambush the young master, they are really tired, so Lao Tzu will go and greet them well. As he spoke, he dragged a few seriously injured bandits away.

Looking at a few distant figures, the team leader said: "Drag people away, don't affect the young master's rest, and don't kill them too quickly, remember to leave a few alive, understand." ”

"Understood...... The captain is so long-winded! ”

After more than half an hour of repair, the army has been reorganized, and I don't know if it's because of the sweet potato, there are a few soldiers who have cultivated themselves as the bottom, and there is a breakthrough, which is really an unexpected joy, and the soldiers' desire for sweet potatoes has become more profound, and they want to quickly complete the disaster relief and get the reward.

After passing through the Black Wind Canyon, there is an open plain in front of him, Draxel led the team to gallop all the way, and never encountered danger again, everyone except for the necessary rest, rushed overnight, and finally at noon the next day, rushed to the Fallen Leaf Village, which is the closest disaster point from Nanshan City, and also the most seriously affected area, before entering the Fallen Leaf Village, Drassell saw countless dry and cracked farmland, as well as dead crops, and skinny civilians, no matter where, the lives of the civilians at the bottom are in dire straits.

Deciduous Village, located in the plain, and the terrain is slightly higher than the surrounding area, there is no shelter from the mountains and forests, and the sun here is hotter than other places.

Looking at the dry earth, Drasel asked curiously, "Uncle, where is the main water source of this Fallen Leaf Village, why is the disaster so serious?" ”

Na Yan Jun sighed and said: "Hey, before Luoye Village, it was originally a wealthy village among several surrounding villages, because one of the branches of the Nanjiang River, the largest river in the entire Nanshan County, once flowed through here, so that the water here is abundant, and the business travel is all over the place, and the annual harvest is several times that of the surrounding villages. ”

"Now, why is this happening?"

Na Yan Jun continued: "That's because the upstream of the main water source in the village happened to flow through a large town in Qingshan City, and the nobles of that big town, and the Zhang family of Qingshan City, were distant relatives, and a few years ago, they used a little means to change the direction of the river and divert most of the river water to them, so that the water source of the Fallen Leaf Village was less than half, and once it encountered a drought, the Fallen Leaf Village would become waterless, and the result was that it was ...... today."

"Grandpa doesn't care about this?"

"How to manage, according to the legal system of the Celestial Empire, the city lord has the right to change the flow of water in the territory of the city, even if my father reports this matter to the imperial capital, the result will not change anything, besides, the Zhang family in Qingshan City and the imperial capital Swadia family are in-laws, and the energy is not small, the relationship between the Swadia family and your Dera family, you kid also knows, do you think, in addition to starting a war, what can my father do, the only remaining water source in the Fallen Leaves Village is still my father personally went to Zhang's house for a long time to make trouble, and only then did he get it. Poor, it's these civilians who suffer. “

"Svadia home! Unexpectedly, the hands of the Swadia family are stretched out quite long, and even Nanshan County has their power. ”

"Drasel, the Svadia family has been the founding nobles since the founding of the Celestial Empire, and in the past hundreds of years, its strength has not diminished, and in the Celestial Empire, the power can be said to be all over the world, you should be careful in the future."

"In the face of real strength, these things are just floating clouds. However, today's Swadia family is indeed not something we can deal with! "Drassell is not stupid, he won't fight with the Svadia family right now, what Drassell needs now is time, as long as there is time, with the support of many spiritual foods, Drassell believes that the Dradella Palace will soon be able to return to its former glory.

Seeing that Drassell despised the Swadia family so much, Yan Jun was a little helpless, but he didn't want to say anything.

Approaching the village of Fallen Leaves, Drasseur could see scrawny passers-by everywhere, their eyes blank and confused, and they had long lost hope for the future, like the walking dead, which was chilling to watch.

As an aspiring young man in the new century, how could he have ever seen such a scene, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a hell of despair, and he felt disgusted with Qingshan City for no reason, seeing that ordinary people were about to starve to death on the streets, Draxel had a determination in his heart that in the near future, Draxel would feed the civilians of the whole world.

Draxle looked at the refugees along the way and said angrily: "What's the matter with these refugees, why are they outside the village, and the little nobles in the village don't care?" ”

Na Yan Jun: "It is estimated that the nobles in the village saw too many refugees, and they were afraid that they would all enter the village and make trouble." “

At this moment, Draxel found that some villagers, after seeing the army of the City Lord's Mansion, not only did not come out to greet them, but even showed a hateful expression, their eyes were full of resentment, and then left without looking back.

Drassell wondered in his heart how these refugees could have such a great hatred for the City Lord's Mansion or the Drasel Palace.

If only one or two people had such a situation, Drassell would not care, but along the way, Drassell saw 70% of the refugees, all of whom looked at him with angry faces, although they only occasionally glanced at themselves with their eyes, but with their keen soul perception, Drassell could still feel the hatred in their eyes.

Before Drassel could think carefully, dozens of middle-aged people in rough clothes in the distance were already staying at the entrance of the village, kneeling down to greet them.

"The head of Fallen Leaf Village, Ye Gong, has met the lord." A middle-aged man dressed in rough clothes but with a slightly round face knelt down to greet him.

Dozens of people behind him also knelt down at the same time to greet Draxle.

"You are the head of this village."

"Exactly, the villain has prepared the hostel, and the lord has had a hard journey, please rest first."

Drasel's eyes flashed, and he didn't say anything, just nodded and agreed: "I'm very tired, take the master to the residence first." By the way, tomorrow's disaster relief sites can be selected, and relevant facilities can be prepared. ”

"Lord Hui, we have made all the preparations, and we can start disaster relief from tomorrow."

Drassel was a little angry in his heart, and he said that he would start disaster relief tomorrow, and this guy really promised to start tomorrow, without thinking about the victims at all, at this time the victims were in dire straits, and they didn't even know the value of time, this kind of village chief is not a good thing.

"No need, let's go to the disaster relief site today, village chief, you have to give the list of all the affected people in the entire village to the king's subordinates, and ask someone to count the affected area, the amount of grain in stock, build temporary shelters, and start work immediately, we will start disaster relief today, distribute coarse grain to the victims, starting with orphans, widows, old, weak, sick and disabled villagers. For those who are sick, the palace will send doctors free of charge to rescue them, and the news will be spread all over the streets and alleys immediately, and there must be no mistakes! ”

"This ............"

Draxel was furious and said, "Any opinions?" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare...... The villain immediately went down to make arrangements. Please take a break, Lord Lord. With that, he quickly gathered his men and began to give orders.

"Then don't lead the way! This king is going to the disaster relief site and personally sitting! ”

"Yes, yes......" Village Chief Ye led the way in front with a frightened expression.

Draxel followed with food and troops, and took the time to ask, "Uncle, who is this village chief, is he an official selected by the City Lord's Mansion?" ”

"No, the city lord's mansion is in charge of the nobles at all levels in the big town, as well as the appointment of all the soldiers of the city guards in the city, if all the small villages are under the management of the city lord's mansion, where can they be managed, these village heads, some of them are small family forces in the village, and some are elected by the villagers, in short, there are many situations and they are very complicated."

"It's a small village, and there is even a division of forces." Draxle was a little surprised.

"Drasel, don't look at the Fallen Leaf Village is not big, but there are tens of thousands of people, and some residences around the village are actually under the jurisdiction of the Fallen Leaf Village, where there are people, there will be competition, and it is not surprising that there are some small forces. According to the previous regulations, as long as each village can pay taxes on time, my city lord's mansion will not take care of too much. ”

Maybe it's because this world is still martial, and it doesn't seem to care about some management systems, many small places, or whoever has the biggest fist is in charge, and the village chiefs of some small villages are almost the most powerful groups in the vicinity. And the city lord doesn't care about this, as long as he can pay taxes regularly, who is the village chief doesn't seem to matter to them, anyway, this world is a world of the weak and the strong, and if you don't have the strength, even if you are killed, no one will avenge you.

And some weak people, if they want to change their fate, either they will become stronger, or they will cultivate a talented and powerful offspring, there are only these two roads to go, which is also the reason for the overcrowding of Nanshan County, with limited resources and too many people, it is not surprising that there are hungry ghosts on the road.

In just half an hour, the village chief's people spread the news that Drasser had come to provide disaster relief, and thousands of victims in the entire village rushed to hear the news.

Drassel also began to distribute food, organize medical treatments, and reassure the people in the village square.

Although, in this world where martial arts are respected, no one cares about the life and death of ordinary civilians, but as the ancestor of the Celestial Empire, as the lord of Drassel, he still has the duty to release food for disaster relief, if the disaster victims are left alone, causing a large area of casualties, the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty will hold the lord accountable, if it is usual, such a trivial matter, no one dares to report the Dera family in front of the emperor, but now, there are many people in the imperial capital waiting for the Dera family to make mistakes, so there is an excuse to make trouble against the Dera family, Drazor doesn't want to get into trouble because of this, not to mention, Draxel, who has memories of his past life, doesn't want to see many civilians in the wilderness.

In just half a day, more than 2,000 people came and went, all of whom were yellow-skinned and sallow-faced, and this was the first time that Drasser had seen a person who was really starving to death.

Unexpectedly, in this world where martial arts are respected, the lives of real low-level civilians are so miserable.

I thought that those victims would show gratitude when they got relief food, but to Drassell's surprise, many of these victims were still very flat, as if it was so natural to get relief food, and a few of them actually had a trace of disgust towards Drassel and others. This made Draxle very confused.

After a busy day of disaster relief, Draxle and the others returned to the inn to rest.

At the dinner table, Drasel said curiously: "Brother Luo, uncle, do you feel strange during the day, many victims seem to be more resistant to us. ”

Yan Jun looked indifferent and said, "Resistance? Drasel, are you mistaken, we are here to provide relief, how can those victims resist us? They should be grateful to Dade. “

Luo Cheng: "Indeed, a small number of victims did show dissatisfaction, which is not difficult to understand, after all, we have dragged on for a long time to come to the disaster relief, and many civilians have starved to death, so it is normal to be a little emotional." ”

"It's impossible, my father asked some wealthy villages and towns around him to transfer some food and come to the emergency half a month ago, even if it is not enough, he shouldn't be dissatisfied." That Yan Jun was a little puzzled.

"Brother Luo, let's see if the brother I sent out to investigate before has come back."

"Back to the young master, I just came back not long ago. Originally, it was planned to wait for the young master to finish the meal before letting them meet him. ”

"No, let them in now."

Not long after, several sergeants in civilian clothes walked outside the door.

"Subordinate, see the young master."

"Excuse me, get up and tell me, what have you gained by letting you pretend to be disaster victims in the past two days."

"Back to the young master, in the past two days, the brothers have disguised themselves as disaster victims, blended into the disaster area, and found that every once in a while, strange people come to publicize the disobedient words of my Draa Palace, and these people will also use food to buy people's hearts, so that more people can spread rumors in the disaster area and smear my Draa Palace."

Drasel suddenly realized and said, "I see, I actually want to smear my Drassell Mansion through rumors, and I really do everything. ”

Na Yan Jun was furious and said: "How unreasonable is this, we are kind enough to come here for disaster relief, but someone is stumbling behind our backs, what they said, let's hear it." ”

"Back to the young city lord, there are three main points in the remarks of those people, one is that I have deliberately delayed disaster relief and embezzled the disaster relief funds of the Celestial Empire; The second is to slander the palace for deliberately blocking the water source of the river, causing a disaster. The third is to say...... said that the little prince has a reckless personality, is arrogant, looks down on the common people, and does not care whether the people live or die. ”

"Oh, in this world, there are still people who know what it means to be terrible! This kind of twists and turns makes stumbling in the style of those great nobles, have you found out who is behind the scenes, slandering my Dra's palace............ Let me guess, it's Tianrong Firm. ”

"Young Master is wise, we followed those people, and those people are indeed from Tianrong Commercial Bank."

"Tianrong Firm! It's the Swadia home. It's the Svadia family who is behind the scenes! That Yan Jun was immediately very excited.

"Uncle, this doesn't seem to be difficult to understand, the Swadia family and my Della family have long been incompatible, this time, we go back to Nanshan County, if they don't do something to make us sad, I will feel strange. It's just that I didn't expect that they would do such a childish thing, according to the temperament of Svadia's old man, this kind of small means, the amount of energy is too small, it should not be his method. ”

Na Yan Jun: "This is still a small means, Drassell, after all, you have just arrived in Nanshan County, if it affects your reputation because of this matter, it will be very unfavorable for you to lead Nanshan County in the future." Nanshan County is already intricately powerful, and if the palace loses the support of the people again, it will not be easy to quickly rule Nanshan County. ”

"If the old horsemen of Swadia come to plan, it is estimated that it will not be a drought, but a plague, or a greater disaster, and then within a few days, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people will be killed, and then a group of nobles will be slaughtered secretly, and after the matter is big, this basin will be buckled on the head of my palace, and at that time, I, as a lord, will have serious negligence, and he can make a grand suggestion to the emperor and attack my family. Such a means is more suitable for the Swadia Sea. Now such a small fight, too childish, will not have any impact on us, after all, this disaster, the death toll is not much. ”

Then Draxel asked again, "And then, what else do you hear?" ”

"Back to the young master, we also heard that the culprit who caused the disaster in the Fallen Leaf Village and the downstream villages was the water source, and it was the city lord of Qingshan City who blocked the water source.

It was they who secretly changed the course of the river, which caused the current disaster. ”
