Zhao Luoyang brought the donkey cart into the village to deliver grain, but before the donkey cart entered the village, she asked Zhao Yuanrang to inform the villagers that the court had distributed grain.

Then everyone will come out to look at the food.

If you gather people together, you can take the opportunity to gain a lot of charm points. The more people gather, the easier it is to influence each other's emotions. If you use it for bad things, you will cause trouble, and if you use it for good things, you will generate charm points.

Shi Jiu said: "The rules of the system will make you more familiar with them the more you use them."

Zhao Luoyang said: "In this case, the charm is worth it. If you prepare it in advance, you will look more impressive when you enter the village."

Shi Jiu said: "It makes sense, but these are not enough. You are short and not very conspicuous. Why don't you stand on the donkey cart and shout a few words when you see someone."

After Shi Jiu finished speaking, a line of words appeared on him.

[Health value -1]

Shi Jiu was startled.

Zhao Luoyang said: "I'm short?"

"No," Shi Jiu thought of a good word, "You are still young, you can still grow older."

Shi Jiu found that Luo Yang's tolerance for him seemed to have decreased. In the past, his health would not be reduced even if he said such words. Is there something he hasn't done well recently?

Zhao Luoyang was quite satisfied with this answer.

"We're entering the village," Shi Jiu reminded Zhao Luoyang, "someone is coming out."

Zhao Luoyang stood up and stood on the donkey cart: "Rice grains have been distributed, everyone come out to get the grains."

I intentionally did not mention the imperial court, so that no one would know that the person next to Zhao Luoyang was a Shangguan from the capital.

Just after shouting, Zhao Luoyang saw more people rushing towards this direction. Among the people running in front, there were a few familiar faces. Zhao Luoyang met Zhang Erya's eyes. He was thirteen or fourteen years old.

The girl's eyes were full of surprise, joy and tears.

Zhao Luoyang heard the system reminder.

Shi Jiu said in his mind: "I received 64 charm points from Zhang Erya."

Zhao Luoyang didn't expect to receive so many charm points from one person all at once. It seemed that her family must be short of these foods.

Zhao Luoyang wanted to call Zhang Erya over, but Zhang Erya had already shouted: "The Zhao family girl has brought us food."

"Mom, we really have food."

Zhang Erya didn't know the eldest man of the government office, but she knew the girl from the Zhao family. The girl from the Zhao family brought this food because she heard about it from Uncle Fang. It remains to be seen whether she can sue those bad guys this time.

In Fengxia Village, if you hear gossip, don’t go out and talk nonsense. If someone asks, don’t say that you got wages from Fengxia Village.

Fengxia Village gives them work, gives them money, and has to bear all the gossip. If this doesn't work, what will happen to Fengxia Village? This shows how hard it is to get this food.

Following Zhang Erya's voice, more villagers opened their doors. Some were holding knitted straw sandals in their hands, and others were lighting fires. When they saw the car, they all put down their work and smiled on their faces.

"The daughter of the Zhao family is here to deliver food."

"The Zhao family is the Zhao family in Fengxia Village."

"The lady gave me food."

"It's true. The girl helped get the food from the government office."

Various sounds came from Zhao Luoyang, who was standing on the donkey cart. She felt a little embarrassed when she heard this. She looked at Xie Chen beside her: "Master Xie, I will explain to everyone in a moment that this is given by the imperial court."

Xie Chen waved his hand, indicating that it was okay. There were some inside stories that the people didn't know. Xie Chen's eyes fell on the houses and the running villagers.

Eighty percent of the houses in this village are dilapidated, as if they may collapse at any time. The villagers are also very thinly dressed, have sallow complexions, and look like they don't have enough to eat all year round.

Some children were naked, hiding at the door of their homes, with half of their faces exposed, and looking out timidly.

Think again about those people who caused trouble in the city yesterday. Who is not greedy and fat?

Xie Chen let out a long sigh and thought of Jiang Wei again. When he took back Taozhou and Minzhou, Jiang Wei also said in the letter to him that after this battle, there would be less frequent wars in the northwest of Daqi.

People can also live and work in peace and contentment.

He has done so many things, sacrificed so many lives, even a princess... in exchange for this? What Zhang Yuan said in his letter is true. Sun Ji and those people have made Taozhou miserable, and the people have lived a miserable life.

Unfortunately, even if the court issues an eviction order, the only ones who will benefit in the end are the corrupt officials.

Xie Chen frowned, and some people and things from the past reappeared in his mind. Before Jiang Wei died, he was still asking him: "Brother Xie, do you think I was wrong? It's a pity that I can't live for a few more days, and I can't see it anymore."

In the future, can you help me? If you think I am wrong, you are wrong too, and try to find a way to come to Taozhou again."

What are you doing in Taozhou? What's the use of bringing up old things after so many years?

"grown ups."

There was a voice in his ears, and Xie Chen turned to look over. It was the girl from the Zhao family talking to him: "It's time for everyone to receive food. Sir, do you want everyone to express your gratitude?"

Only now did the people in Sunjiacun know that the person next to the Zhao girl was a Shangguan from Beijing.

"No need," Xie Chen said, "this is everyone's food."

Fang Shengzhong said: "It's better to thank you, otherwise no one will dare to accept it."

The government office read out the documents, and the relocated residents of Sunjia Village knelt down to thank them, and then began to distribute the food.

Zhao Luoyang looked at Fang Shengzhong, who nodded slightly. Before Zhao Luoyang left the government office, he sent a letter to Fang Shengzhong, telling him that Xie Chen would come with him.

Thank you for coming to distribute food, and it is inevitable that you will talk to the people in the village.

Fang Shengzhong invited a few people to stand aside and wait for Mr. Xie to understand the people's sentiments.

Xie Chen watched for a while, and then he looked around and found several old men standing not far from him.

Xie Chen naturally walked over and talked to the old man. The old men had never seen such a big official before, so they were a little nervous. Fortunately, Xie Chen didn't have any airs, and soon everyone started chatting.

"We are the former farmers of Sunjia Village. Sun Lizheng and others started doing this many years ago."

"I sued him, why didn't I sue him? It's useless. He will be beaten by Sun Lizheng's people when he comes back, so no one dares to speak out."

"Taozhou was doing well when Jiang Zhizhou was here, but Jiang Zhizhou passed away..."

The old man said this and waved his hand: "As you get older, you see more. Our Mr. Zhao is different. Maybe life will be easier from now on."

Xie Chen said: "I heard that there is another village here?"

Zhao Luoyang tilted his head slightly, and Shi Jiu said in his mind: "I can't help but start asking."

Zhao Luoyang and Shi Jiu guessed that it was not easy to inquire about information in Mr.

.

The old man said: "Yes, they are people who came from Xibo. They have been here for many years."

Xie Chen said: "How is the village?"

"Well," the old man stroked his beard, "we are all on guard against others, saying they are not good, but what have they actually done in these years? Let's just say that this time the people were relocated to make fur coats, it was not the villagers who helped them, otherwise the immigrants would

You can’t make money either.”

When the old man said this, he clasped his fists at Xie Chen: "Sir, you can't believe those words outside. Some people spread them deliberately. Why do you spread them? You haven't benefited from others!"

Xie Chen nodded: "Thank you, old man, I understand."

The old man obviously hadn't said enough: "If you want to say that Taozhou and Minzhou were captured back then, you have to thank the people in the village. Now that I mentioned that they came from Xibo, I feel that they have bad intentions. Good people can be evil.

That’s not how it’s divided.”

Xie Chen wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know how to speak, so he finally closed his mouth.

Zhao Luoyang and Shi Jiu said, "I don't know how to get Mr. Xie to express his true feelings?"

Shi Jiu used Zhao Luoyang's eyes to take a closer look at Xie Chen: "Some civil servants are like this, hesitant and half-hidden."

Zhao Luoyang said: "How about we find an opportunity and take him to visit the tomb again?"

Maybe there are some things that cannot be said to the living, but can be said to the dead.

…

Outside Sunjia Village.

In a mule cart, Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Bai were sitting together.

Bai Shi rubbed her legs: "I thought you just came out to take a look yesterday, but today you have to drag me with you. As a disabled person like me, I will be a drag wherever I go."

Mrs. Bai said: "The person who just followed the Zhao family girl into Sunjia Village is Xie Chen from Beijing."

Bai Shi said: "Do you know him?"

Mrs. Bai nodded: "You have seen it too."

Bai couldn't recall such a person.

Mrs. Bai lifted the blanket from Bai's legs and covered her carefully: "But you are tired? How about we find a place to rest?"

Bai was a little surprised: "Aren't you ready to go back to the village?"
