Several people looked at each other, obviously hesitating whether they should talk about this so-called strange thing.
Seeing this, Zhu Yanshuo was a little impatient: "You can say what you should say, and you can say what shouldn't be said. I won't blame you."
"Yes, City Lord." The man nodded: "Early this morning, many places in the city suddenly sold out their breakfast."
"In recent days, Moyun Ghost City has been destroyed, and a large number of slaves from Moyun Ghost City have poured into the city. It is normal for the food supply to be short for a while. Why is it so strange?" Zhu Yanshuo was a little confused.
"Yes, this is not surprising, but the problem is that there are many people outside the store who did not actually buy breakfast, and even...even the various grains stored in the store for the next few days have been bought.
Well, cooked food is the same, even some raw food restaurants are like this." Na Renhui reported.
Hearing this, Zhu Yanshuo didn't understand. This was indeed abnormal.
Even though there are a large number of people and the supply is not sufficient, the city has not reached the level of famine. Although it is known that the refugees in Moyun Ghost City each have a lot of money and have enough purchasing power.
But you wouldn’t buy such a large area to store grain without causing a famine, right?!
"How many stores do this happen to?"
"Reporting to the city lord, there is basically no house in the city that has not experienced this situation. We doubt whether..."
It's not unusual for people who are cautious and afraid of being scolded to be prepared like this, but if this happened to all the restaurants in the city, it would really be too abnormal.
Could it be that, as my subordinates suspected, they were those people from the Heavenly Demon Palace and the Hundred Demon Palace?
But this shouldn't be the case. They were seriously injured and they should be looking for medicinal materials. What are they doing with so much food?
If the injuries and illnesses cannot be cured, no matter how much food you have, won’t you just wait for death?!
"City Lord, food and population are related. The Heavenly Demon Palace and the Hundred Demon Palace are both traditional old sects of the Demon Clan. If they are not preserved, there will be many accomplices and remnants. They have bought a large amount of food. Is it possible to wait for reinforcements?
?” another added.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yanshuo's eyes suddenly lit up, which really reminded him: "Send additional manpower to the city wall immediately, and pay attention to the situation outside the city."
"I understand." The man accepted the order and hurriedly retreated.
After giving these instructions, Zhu Yanshuo looked at the others: "As for you, go find out who these grains were sold to."
"yes."
When everyone accepted the order and was about to go down, Zhu Yanshuo suddenly realized that something might be wrong and hurriedly said: "Wait a moment."
"The city lord has any other instructions."
Zhu Yanshuo raised his head and frowned: "Send a team to check where the food has gone. As for the others, step up patrols, and the focus should still be on the medicine store."
Several people were stunned, wondering why City Lord Zhu suddenly changed his mind.
But Zhu Yanshuo was not without his reasons. Food could never have anything to do with a large number of injured people. Therefore, after thinking about it, Zhu Yanshuo believed that this was most likely a plan by the other party to divert the tiger away from the mountain.
The reason was that he had raised suspicions and asked himself to suddenly launch a heavy-duty investigation. If he suddenly went to various medicinal stores to buy medicinal materials at this time, wouldn't he have succeeded in private?
"What are you still doing?"
A few people nodded, looked at each other, said yes, and went down obediently.
After a few people left, Zhu Yanshuo had a rather complicated look in his eyes, clenched his fists slightly, and said in a cold voice: "Han, do you really think I'm a fool for playing these tricks with me?"
"Even if I have to dig three feet into the ground, I will dig you out. However, I am not in a hurry. Your real death will be when they arrive."
At this time, in the ruined temple.
Team after team of people and horses flowed through each other like a busy traffic. When everyone came in, they had a lot of food in their hands, and when they left, they had nothing in their hands.
But the things inside the ruined temple were accumulating more and more, not only filling up the entire ruined temple, but even there was a pile outside the courtyard.
A group of monks, all two feet tall, were confused and had no idea what Han Sanqian was doing. At this time, Han Sanqian finally stood up and walked over slowly...
