Under the mobilization of the village head, the tenants, regardless of their gender or age, began to get busy.
"Greetings, Boss!"
Seeing Li Yuanfang walk over from afar, the tenants were all very enthusiastic.
Who wouldn't want to stock up on food when a natural disaster came? This was a matter of survival.
Li Yuanfang smiled faintly, showing great concern for the tenants.
"What's wrong with you guys living in the igloos?”
"If you're not used to it, just bear with it. When the snow melts in spring, I'll definitely build a new house for you.”
"The kind that can block the wind and snow and is not afraid of collapsing for ten years.”
The tenants felt warm in their hearts when they heard this. They did not pray much.
The land rent would increase every year, and if there was a disaster, they would be able to help out. Such a simple thing was enough to make them happy.
After hearing Li Yuanfang's words, everyone couldn't help but think about it and finally made a decision in their hearts.
If the new owner really kept his promise, they would do their best and never betray this owner.
The tenants who had thought it through did not dare to neglect Li Yuanfang and began to answer his questions.
"The igloos are much warmer than outside,"
"Yes, it won't delay us from starting a fire and cooking.”
"To be honest, this is better than living in a broken temple.”
“……”
The head of the village shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Quiet, everyone quiet down and listen to me!”
The tenants instantly quieted down, and their gazes shifted from Li Yuanfang to the head of the village.
"The boss will transport the grain to Chang 'an today. Don't be suspicious.”
"The snowstorm is here. Are the refugees far away? You should know what it means to be a refugee.”
"Ahem, the boss wants to take away the grain in the warehouse, but only 70% of it.”
"The remaining 30% will be divided equally among each household in the village.”
The last sentence directly lit up the eyes of the tenant. Without a word, he immediately helped to transport the grain.
Move, move, move!
If the owner didn't have enough manpower, they could help move it on their own.
Moving food was a big project.
Li Yuanfang used the cart blueprint. As a privileged person, how could he work alone?
Of course, the craftsman who was left behind yesterday was brought back to help.
After the wheelbarrows were assembled, the tenants who came to help felt that it was useful and could not help but run to the head of the village to murmur.
The head of the village kept nodding his head and looked for Li Yuanfang in embarrassment.
"Boss, can you leave this cart in the manor?”
"I was going to leave it behind anyway. In the future, it will save you more effort to move things.”
"Hey, hey, thank you, boss!"
"No need."
Li Yuanfang waved his hand nonchalantly. The carriage used for transportation had to be changed.
The carriage was too heavy, and the wheels would easily sink into the snow, making it difficult to move forward. Therefore, the ground had to be changed to sledges or sleighs.
The group of people knocked and hammered, and soon, the carriages were all modified. They could be pulled back to Chang 'an after they were mounted.
Before he left, Li Yuanfang inspected both villages and made sure that no one died and that there was no problem with their safety. He only told the village heads earnestly that if there was anything, they should enter the city to find him.
"We will."
The two village heads looked at each other and said solemnly.
Li Yuanfang then led his men back to Chang 'an Fortress.
After spending a long time in the manor, on the way back to the city…he saw more people frozen to death.
Chang 'an City, outside Mingde Gate.
Li Yuanfang looked at the scene in front of him in astonishment.
What did he see?
Many tents were set up at the last minute, and these people were cooking porridge and giving it out.
"Is giving porridge a routine?"
Li Yuanfang asked Bai Fu, who was half a body away from him.
Bai Fu thought about the situation in Prince Zhou's residence and reminded Li Yuanfang.
"In the past, whenever there was a disaster, there would indeed be people who would take out the food in the residence to help the victims.”
"However, we have just opened our residence…If you want to give out porridge, I'm afraid people will gossip.”
Li Yuanfang sighed.”
Kindness had to be based on the occasion. The current situation was not something that an idle prince like him could worry about.
As long as he managed the people in the Imperial Residence and the two villages well and did not cause any trouble to the Imperial Court, it would be a great merit.
"Let's go back to the residence!"
Little did they know that the modified horse carriage had become a beautiful scenery in Chang 'an City, attracting 100% attention.
……
Li Yuanfang and his group did not notice that they were being followed back to the city by someone with ulterior motives.
After that person entered the city, he went straight to the wealthy district where the five surnames and seven families lived together. Finally, he entered the Wang family's door.
He saw that this person had passed through the manuscript corridor and entered the study room without any obstruction.
"What did you find?"
Wang Teng glanced at the person who had just arrived. His attitude was arrogant.
The person took off his raincoat that was covered in snow, revealing a pair of flattering rat eyes.
"Old master, Zhou Wang went to the manor. The snow was not heavy enough to cover the tracks of the pursuers, so I could only observe from afar. I didn't expect to see the houses on the two manor collapsed.”
"Tsk, the snowstorm is coming. Which house in the suburbs hasn't collapsed? This isn't enough as an excuse for revenge.”
Wang Teng pursed his lips in disdain. So many days had passed, how could they not have noticed the pit caused by the fire bed?
However, seeing that the brick bed could indeed withstand the cold, he did not seek revenge from the royal family of the Li Tang Empire.
Not settling scores did not mean that they were not angry. The Wang family, who had been cheated, could not swallow this anger.
As a result, Li Yuanfang was unlucky enough to be targeted.
The servant following Li Yuanfang hurriedly added, his words inevitably carrying some personal speculations.
"Looking at the two villages from the mountainside, there is a pile of round things that look like a mass grave. The only intact house is the warehouse.”
"According to my observation, today Prince Zhou went to the village to bring food back to the capital. He was extremely low-key along the way, as if he was hiding something.”
Wang Teng silently lowered his chin and waved his hand to signal for the man to leave.
"It's been hard on you. According to the rules, go to the accountant's office to receive your reward.”
"Hey, hey, thank you, Master."
The servant responded happily and left the study respectfully. He even closed the door for Wang Teng considerately and then ran to the accountant's room with glee.
In the study, Wang Teng asked with interest.
"What do you think?"
Almost instantly, a middle-aged man's answer came from behind the screen.
"It doesn't matter whether it's implemented or not. What's important is that we can use this matter.”
"If it's true, then it's because Zhou Wang was so young and had no regard for human lives. He ruthlessly exterminated two villages, a total of 500 peasants. This matter is not tolerated by the heavens and must be severely punished.”
"Fake, I can still take this matter to disgust Zhou Wang and give him a small warning.”
"Either way, it has the effect of revenge. What do you think?”
After a while…
Wang Teng suddenly burst into laughter.
"You are right. If the latter comes true, then we will be even. If it is the former, then my Wang family will take the initiative to attack and seek justice for the people who died tragically!”
