The first thing I did when I arrived in Ziyang was to go to Lin Rou and get back the money from the sale of medicine and wine.

A total of 135,300 taels of silver, Jiang Chen divided the money into three, except for one for himself, and handed over the remaining two to Lao Wu and Wu Yue for safekeeping.

"Qingshan, if you are too careless, the money will not be placed on you, so as not to lose it!"

After learning that those medicinal wines were actually sold for so much money, the Wu family was deeply shocked by Jiang Chen's shrewd business acumen.

Wu Qingshan said: "It's the same with my father and sister, don't worry, uncle, I will protect them." ”

"Jiang Chen, you have to come and join us as soon as possible, my daughter's happiness in this life can be handed over to you, don't die outside!"

Although Lao Wu's words are not very popular, he also expressed his concern for Jiang Chen in his own way, a son-in-law who can make such money, he still has to steal fun?

Thinking that his daughter can live a worry-free life in the future, Lao Wu feels relieved.

After separating from the Wu family, Jiang Chen led a group of people from the Lin Mansion out of the city, and they drove carts and horses full of food and clothing to find the displaced people who were in a desperate situation.

Jiang Chen's plan was to take the displaced people to Hutou Mountain, where he burned to ruins, but if it could be renovated, it would definitely be a very suitable place to settle down.

Coupled with the food and clothing donated by the Lin family, these homeless people finally saw a ray of light in despair.

Hutou Mountain is still the original Hutou Mountain, but now the owner here is no longer a thief who kills people without blinking, but these poor people who want to seek a glimmer of life in the troubled times.

"Ahh

"Don't kill me, don't kill me!"

Suddenly, in a dark corner ahead, there were several people's cries for help, and strangely enough, both sides showed extremely frightened expressions, and for a while they didn't know who was the one who wanted to kill them.

The housekeeper of the Lin Mansion was taken aback, and hurriedly ran to tell Jiang Chen that they had found dozens of people huddled under the ruins of the broken wall.

Jiang Chen went over to inquire and found out that these people were the bandits who used to live here, and they did not scatter like the others, but stayed here.

Because they were afraid of being arrested by the government, and there was really no other place to go, they could only stay here and find it difficult to move an inch.

"In that case, are you willing to change your ways and stop doing those murderous things from now on?"

"Hero, spare your life, we just want to live now, and we will never do those hurtful things again, please forgive us!"

There are also some people among the bandits who are just forced to make a living, maybe they haven't done anything excessive at all, for these people Jiang Chen chose to open the net and ordered them to stay here, but they must help the homeless people rebuild Hutou Mountain.

But there is one thing, this place must not be turned into a second copycat!

After settling the homeless, the housekeeper of the Lin Mansion asked the question that puzzled him very much.

"I said Jiang Gongzi, what do you have to do to help these homeless people with so much effort? The world is in turmoil and strife, and there will only be more and more displaced people in the future, can you help me? ”

Jiang Chen replied lightly: "I am not a saint, the reason why I help these people is because our family Yue'er has a kind heart, she wants me to do this, I just want her to be happy." ”

On the way back to Ziyang City, Jiang Chen asked about those who had been forcibly recruited and taken away a few days ago, and asked where they were now.

As a result, the steward told him that these people would be sent to the military camp stationed in the west today, and they would be replenished to the combat troops on the front line, so they would not stay in Ziyang City for too long.

This is the second thing Jiang Chen needs to do, to save all the people including Li Yuanpei.

"By the way, Gongzi Jiang, my young lady specially instructed that after settling down those homeless people, she will hold a banquet in the city to invite you to an appointment, Gongzi must not forget!"

After the housekeeper said this, he led the people back to the Lin Mansion.

Jiang Chen didn't know where Li Yuanpei and the others were being held, but since they were going out of the city today, they would be guarding at the west gate, and they would never miss such a conspicuous team.

As for Lin Rou wanting to invite himself to dinner, Jiang Chen didn't take it to heart, he just wanted to finish his work as soon as possible, and then rush to Longjiang to join Wu Yue and them.

He always felt that Lao Wu deliberately named him to go to Longjiang, and something bad would happen that he couldn't predict.

Before the sun set on this day, Jiang Chen waited for the team escorting Li Yuanpei and them out of the West Gate, and continued all the way west to the camp of the army stationed in the local area.

Along the way, Jiang Chen did not rush to move, more than forty strong men were escorted by ten people, their hands and feet were chained, and they could only maintain a very limited range of movement, and once they moved, he could not guarantee the safety of everyone.

As they quietly followed the group, it was getting darker.

"Just rest here, let's all stop."

The person in charge of the escort chose a shaded place, set up a bonfire and ate dry food, which gave Jiang Chen a chance to get closer, and he also saw Li Yuanpei in the crowd.

Just as he was thinking about how to save people, he suddenly heard an arrow in his ear, and several arrows shot out of the forest in the other direction at the same time, killing several escorts on the spot in an instant.

Due to the suddenness of the incident, Jiang Chen was almost unprepared, and Li Yuanpei and the others quickly fell into a panicked situation.

"Help, don't kill us, I don't want to die yet!"

In the midst of a noisy cry for help, another group of unknown people appeared, and they shot cleanly, and after killing all the escorts, they were the only ones who were frightened.

"Look, what has become of you? Who doesn't want to stay at home and live a good life, and who doesn't want to be with their family? ”

A middle-aged man dressed in black walked in front of these strong men one by one, and there was still a lot of pity for these people in his mouth, but judging from the methods they had just killed, this was definitely not a good person.

Jiang Chen calmed down and calmed down, according to his observation, there were a total of thirteen of these people, and they stood in key positions in all directions in a very strict and well-organized formation, which could not only prevent anyone from escaping, but also prevent the enemy from suddenly attacking them.

Such a formation made Jiang Chen believe that this group of people should be from the military camp, but he didn't know where they came from?

As a result, the next words of the man in black shocked his heart.

"Today, I give you a chance to choose again, do you want to die for this country that doesn't care about your life or death, or submit to us and exchange your flesh and blood for a piece of prosperity?"
