Chapter 1020: Someone comes from the City Lord’s Mansion
In the city, the city lord was overjoyed when he heard that Immortal Youyue had arrived and sold tribute-quality fine grain to the victims at 10% of the price of ordinary rice in the city.
It wasn't that he didn't want the victims to enter the city before, but there were too many victims. If they entered the city, it would cause instability in the city. He had no choice but to turn away the victims.
But he was afraid of causing a civil uprising, so he could only mobilize the rich households in the city to go out to give porridge. However, the rich owner of the city did not have much food, and there were too many victims. He was very afraid that if there was no porridge to give to the city, the city would be destroyed.
What should we do with the disaster victims outside?
Although the city lord has reported the situation of the victims to the higher authorities, there is nothing he can do as the relief food is delayed.
But how could he not be happy to hear that there are people selling grain at low prices outside the city, which can greatly alleviate the food shortage?
He immediately decided to use the money he had raised when he organized wealthy households to provide disaster relief to buy food.
Therefore, he immediately sent people out of the city to invite Ruyue into the city to discuss relief matters.
"My surname is Gao, and I am the steward of the city lord's palace. The city lord heard that Yuexianren sells grain here at 10% price. Thank you very much. I have specially sent you to invite Yuexianren to come to the city to discuss disaster relief plans."
When someone comes to the City Lord's Mansion, Ruyue is happy to see what happens.
She doesn't have that much time to slowly sell food here, so the best way is to hand over the job of selling food to the officials - she still has to go to Kurong Forest to find her master.
"Okay, I'll go in with you. By the way, I also caught a troublemaker selling grain here who wanted to stir up the emotions of the victims and blocked our guy who was selling low-priced grain. I suspect that someone wanted to use the famine to make trouble and stir up trouble.
There was a civil uprising, so he was restrained. Senior executive, do you think we should arrest him?"
In fact, the city lord's palace had been preventing civil uprisings for a long time. When they heard that someone was stopping the "Moon Immortal" from selling low-priced grain, they immediately tightened the string and called for people to come over and arrest that person into the city.
However, when Ruyue was about to enter the city, she was surrounded by people:
"Moon Immortal, you have entered the city, what should we do?"
"Yue Xianren, you have entered the city, will you still come to the city to sell low-priced food?"
"Yes, Moon Immortal, those of us at the back haven't bought low-priced food yet. What will we do if you leave?"
"Moon Immortal——"
All the victims knew that if Ruyue could go to the city and sell grain at 10% of the price, he was here to help the victims.
If Kisaragi leaves, they won't have low-priced food to buy.
"stop!"
Ru Yue made a gesture, and everyone stopped and looked at Ru Yue with pitiful expressions.
Ruyue sighed, jumped to the roof and said to everyone: "I just went in to discuss the disaster relief with the city lord. The food will still be sold. I will send people to continue selling food in the city. I am the only one entering the city.
Personally, so don’t worry, everyone who buys food should go back and queue up. My house will not be closed until everyone buys food."
As soon as everyone heard Ru Yue's words to continue selling grain, they immediately felt relieved and ran back to queue up with a clatter.
Ruyue said to Xiaobi and others: "Qingqing and Zurong are coming to the city with me. Xiaobi, Xiaojin, Xiaohuo, you three will continue to stay and sell food."
But Xiaobi was worried: "I'd better follow the Lord into the city and let Miss Qingqing and Master Zurong stay."
Ru Yue thought for a while, and there were Xiao Jin and Xiao Huo outside. "Lin Qingqing" was actually a master at the early stage of martial arts and the extraordinary realm, and the peak of spiritual integration, which was enough to calm the scene.
Besides, "Lin Qingqing" is his clone. Although there is still a lot of food in Fei Uli, there are so many people in the city that the food in the house is really sold out. "Lin Qingqing" can also enter the pagoda space to get food at any time.
Then he agreed.
She took Xiaobi and followed the visitor into the city.
However, when they entered the city and arrived at the city lord's mansion, no one came to greet them.
