The shopkeeper looked at Long Chen who was walking away with cold eyes. He continued to fiddle with the abacus in his hand and said coldly: "Whether he knows it or not, we don't know."
The waiter knew what the shopkeeper meant and said, "I understand."
No matter how Long Chen asked or what he said, they were just pretending to be crazy and ignorant, pretending not to know anything.
Long Chen came out of Li's Liquor Shop and walked back slowly.
Shen Wanjin went to chase Kong Ji, and it had been more than a day. Long Chen originally wanted to see if Shen Wanjin was back.
But judging from the guy's reaction, he probably hasn't come back yet.
In this case, Long Chen ignored it.
"Sir, please give me something to eat. My grandson hasn't eaten in a few days."
An old woman suddenly walked out of the street and asked Long Chen for food.
Long Chen stopped and asked, "Has all your food been taken away?"
It stands to reason that the people living in the city will have surplus food. The old woman must have been robbed when she asked Long Chen for it.
The old woman said helplessly: "As a family of soldiers and bandits, there is nothing we can do."
"Sir, please give me some. My grandson is starving."
Long Chen wanted to give him money, but he might not be able to buy food even if he gave him money at this time.
"Old man, come with me."
Long Chen took the old woman to the prefect's mansion, but the old woman didn't dare to go in at the door.
Long Chen knew that the old woman was scared, so he didn't say anything and just asked the soldier to bring out a bag of rice.
"Old man, take it back first. If you don't have enough, come back."
Long Chen handed the rice to the old woman.
"Thank you, sir!"
The old woman wiped away her tears happily and thanked Long Chen repeatedly before returning with the food in her arms.
"Sir, there are many people in the city who have no food to eat, and we can't help them."
The guard at the door wanted to persuade Long Chen. After all, the people here are Xixia people.
Long Chen didn't say anything, turned around and entered the prefect's mansion, where he found Wu Jian.
"Old Wu, many people in the city have no food to eat. I would like to provide some food relief."
Wu Jian looked troubled and said, "Major General, our food supply is also very tight."
Long Chen knew that military rations were very tight and said, "I know, but we can't watch them starve to death."
"In the past, they were Xixia people and enemies. If they died, they would die."
"Now that we have captured the city, we are the people of Zhou."
Wu Jian knew that Long Chen cared about the life and death of the people, so it was useless to persuade him.
"Okay, I...I'll put out some food."
Long Chen thought for a while and said: "I see that the people around me are short of cattle for farming. You can pick out those injured horses and give them to the people around you for farming."
Wu Jian nodded and said: "Okay, good people will do it to the end!"
"Major General, what should we do with those prisoners?"
Long Chen said: "I thought of a way to gather them together tomorrow and I will deal with them!"
Wu Jian asked: "Kill them all?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "Of course not. If you want to kill him, you don't have to go to such trouble."
"Go ahead and help the people first."
Wu Jian immediately arranged for the grain officer to provide food for disaster relief. The grain officer complained quite a bit. Like Wu Jian, he felt that he had not enough food to eat, so he also gave food to the Xixia people.
Soon, the city began to distribute food, and at the same time, injured horses were selected and given to the people.
The people in the city were overjoyed and said that the Long family army was different.
In fact, for ordinary people, it doesn't matter who becomes the emperor. As long as they live a good life, they are good emperors.
Long Chen distributed food and horses, which was much better than Shi Le's robbing. People said that the Long family's army was good!
In the palace in the city, Zhao Fan had just offered incense to Zhao Lun when he heard the roar of people outside the door.
"What's going on outside? It's so busy?"
Mrs. Zhao Fan sounded a little irritable.
The joys and sorrows among people are not the same. Some people are happy and some are sad.
After the death of her husband, Mrs. Zhao Fan was in a low mood. When she heard other people laughing, she couldn't help but feel irritable.
"King Wu of the Great Zhou Dynasty is distributing food for disaster relief and giving land to war horses for plowing. The people in the city are celebrating."
The maid knew what was going on outside and immediately replied.
Zhao Fan was slightly surprised and said: "Distributing food for disaster relief? Do they have a surplus of food?"
As the wife of the prefect, Fan Zhao knew that during war, food was the most important thing.
The two sides were still fighting, but Long Chen was actually willing to give out food for relief?
"This... this slave doesn't know."
Zhao Fan glanced outside the wall and was about to go back to her room to rest when Zhao Ying walked in from outside.
"mother."
"Xiaoying, are you out?"
Zhao Ying came over and said to Zhao Fan, "Mom, Long Chengen is actually providing disaster relief."
Zhao Fan said lightly: "The people have no food to eat. At this time, disaster relief has just won the hearts of the people. There is nothing surprising."
Zhao Ying said: "Even if we win the hearts of the people, it is better than Shi Le grabbing food."
Zhao Fan nodded slightly, and she agreed with this statement.
Zhao Ying said: "Mom, I want to go to the Long Family Army."
Zhao Fan sighed slightly and said: "Xiaoying, I know you want to join the army for revenge, but Long Chengen has already said that he will not accept it."
"I've also figured it out. It's too impulsive for you to join the army."
"Swords have no eyes on the battlefield. If something goes wrong with you, my mother..."
Zhao Ying is Zhao Fan's only relative. She hopes that Zhao Ying is alive and well.
As for Lu Qichang and Shi Le, if Long Chen fights so hard, Xixia will be destroyed sooner or later, and they will die sooner or later.
Zhao Fan figured it out, but Zhao Ying was still stubborn and said: "Mom, I have been learning martial arts for so many years. If I can't even avenge my father, then why should I learn it?"
Zhao Fan sighed slightly: "Xiaoying, your martial arts... are not enough."
Normally, Zhao Ying is the servant of the sergeant at home, and it seems that his martial arts skills are quite good, but when it comes to the battlefield, he might be finished in one round.
Zhao Ying was unconvinced and turned around and returned to the room angrily.
After closing the door and sitting down, Zhao Ying thought about what happened last night, and couldn't help but feel ashamed and angry. She felt that Long Chen had taken advantage of him and had not received any benefits.
"No, I can't suffer in vain!"
Zhao Ying changed her mourning clothes, still put on the black silk dress, and went out carrying her long sword.
This time, Zhao Ying did not go to the Prefect's Mansion to find Long Chen, but went directly to the Long Family Army to help.
The Long Family Army was distributing food in the city. Zhao Ying walked into the crowd and started to help distribute food.
The captain in charge of the distribution had never seen Zhao Ying and asked: "This... girl, which general are you under?"
Zhang Qian and others are all female generals. They have female generals under their command, so it is not surprising to see women.
But Zhao Ying had never been seen before, so the captain felt strange.
Zhao Ying didn't explain much, just responded: "I am King Wu's new general."
The soldier next to him was stunned for a moment, then a clear smile appeared on his face.
Long Chen was a womanizer and would take any beautiful woman he saw for his own use. It was not surprising that he had a beautiful female general.
"What do you call the general?"
The captain immediately asked respectfully.
Such a beautiful female general must be Long Chen's confidante. It would be right to establish a good relationship with her as soon as possible.
Zhao Ying replied lightly: "Zhao!"
The captain smiled and bowed, "I'm the captain of the Lancers Breaking Camp Miao Xin. General Zhao will take care of you in the future."
