188 Chapter 188

The cold water poured down like this, and the bitter cold wind blew, almost all of the people were frozen, and they sat there with snot flowing, holding the bowl with their hands shaking, looking in a mess. The elderly could not bear it and almost fainted. The concubines could not bear it, and they could not bear such hardship, and they grabbed the merchants and cried in a low voice.??

"Master, no, it's too cold!"

"I'm going to freeze to death!"

As soon as these concubines spoke, the parents of the grain merchants also grabbed their children and said, "Yes, our old bones can't stand it!"

"Let me give me some hot stuff, even steamed buns!"

The businessmen also saw that Pei Yuanhao was intentionally embarrassed today. Although they could still hold on, their relatives could no longer hold on. There was no way. Some people were already thinking about how to speak to Pei Yuanhao.

The person who was in charge of the overall situation was still sitting there calmly, looking at the people in front of him with a mirror-like face.

At this moment, I was also sighing in my heart, maybe I was really not enough, not enough for him to think deeply, not enough for him to do it, otherwise this secret fight would not be so easy to win.

Finally, Boss Liu, who was promoted to the forefront, stood up and said with his teeth: "Dian, Your Highness..."

"What's the matter?"

The man trembledly and said, "Your Highness has indeed done a good job in the livelihood of the victims. We also feel that it is very cold. I would like to ask your Highness to give you some hot soup rice..."

Before he could finish his words, the people around him hurriedly agreed and stood up and bowed to Pei Yuanhao.

It was not until then that Pei Yuanhao put down the bowl in his hand, slowly stood up and walked to the center of them, looking at the people crying, and said lightly: "You also feel cold and hungry?"

Everyone hurriedly said, "Yes, yes."

He sneered and said, "You have only been hungry for a while. I feel that the cold wind blows for a while, but look at the people below. They have been hungry for more than ten days and have been frozen for more than a month! You are hungry and you have delicacies and delicious food when you go home. But they can only rely on eating tree bark and digging Guanyin soil. Some people cut off the flesh from the dead and cooked it to survive. You are complaining now, but you look down and see who is more bitter!"

His voice was heavy and excited, and it was heard in his ears like a morning bell. The victims under the city tower also heard it, gathered down the city tower and looked up at it.

Pei Yuanhao continued: "You are all well-known figures in Yangzhou, and your family is rich, but where did your money come from? Did you get the ones you go to the wharf to carry your carry, or to plow the fields and sow the seeds? You rely on these people, the food they have worked hard to grow. Only when you collect it will you have the opportunity to make money by turning the price. But now, they are in trouble, and ask you to raise some food to save people, but you dodge one by one, take out some granaries and put the rice at the bottom and beat them. Is there such a cause and effect in the world?!"

Every word and every word he said was loud and loud. When the victims under the city tower heard it, they were all excited and shouted loudly: "Yes! Your Highness is right!"

"We just want to survive!"

"Give us a bite of food, Your Highness, thank you!"

Listening to the crowded voices below, the merchants upstairs all looked ashen and didn't say anything. Pei Yuanhao slowly turned around and looked at them, and said in a deep voice: "The Celestial Empire stipulates that there are stone inscriptions at the door of each government office. I believe everyone has heard of the sixteen words on it. I will give you these sixteen words--"
