Chapter 126 Jinjiang Exclusive Release

[Wow, this is really awesome! I just beat off a bunch of scammers, and now here comes another extortionist?]

The anchor spent hundreds of thousands of points to buy the floating bus, and now he's asking for it right after he opens his mouth. How shameless!

[No, no, no, they definitely want more than one car. All four of them are worth more than hundreds of thousands, millions!]

[Hiss! What a big appetite.]

Lu Xuan's eyes were cold.

Even if his total points balance is more than 30 million now, it doesn't mean that he doesn't take a few million seriously. What's more, he wants to get something for nothing. He is really ugly but has wishful thinking.

The villagers knew that the hovercrafts belonged to Lu Xuan and it was his freedom to do what he wanted with them. They had no way of interfering. However, the officials' as if it was a matter of course, and even the tone that they had to express gratitude to the so-called adults for handing over the hovercrafts and supplies, made their anger, which had just subsided, surge up uncontrollably.

Seeing no response from them, the officers said angrily, "Speak up! Where's the car? And the supplies? Are you going to hand them over or not? Are you really going to go against our lords and the government?"

Chen Rong at the back couldn't help but mutter, "You talk as if the government is still as powerful as before. If you have the ability, why don't you deal with the other forces in the city? Why are you showing off here?" Believe it or not, if their superpowers work together, they can overturn the entire government!

The other villagers were also furious. They said, "The government is so powerful. We're being harassed in the trading street. Why don't you come out and seek justice for us?"

"You're offering asylum? Let me see where you're offering it. You're asking us to hand over our hard-earned supplies just by talking to us. Why?"

"I heard that during the extreme heat season, not only did the government not provide disaster relief, but they also took the lead in looting supplies and exploiting the victims in the city? They clearly didn't care about the victims at all, but now they are flattering themselves."

"Are you referring to that shameless old man who's over sixty and still has eight concubines? He only thinks about sleeping with women all day long. How can he have time for anything else?"

The villagers talked one after another, becoming more and more excited, not caring how ugly the faces of the officials were.

"Shut up!" the leading officer shouted angrily, his eyes full of humiliation and anger.

A group of unruly people actually dared to talk back and even resist them?

The officer cursed, "You are just a bunch of outsiders without the protection of the adults. Do you think you can gain a foothold in the county? While we are still talking to you, hand over your vehicles and supplies quickly, otherwise we will -"

A loud bang interrupted his words.

The officer subconsciously turned his head to look over and saw Lu Xuan crushing a piece of stone as big as a human head in his hand. The stone had been obtained from somewhere and he didn't know where it came from. He rubbed it hard and then kneaded the stone into a ball of stone powder.

Officer: “!!!!”

The officers instinctively took a few steps back, looking at Lu Xuan with eyes full of fear.

Lu Xuan looked at them coldly and said his first and only sentence: "Do you think I can crush your heads like I crushed this stone?"

The officers' faces turned pale instantly.

The leading officer's eyelids twitched wildly, and he opened his mouth subconsciously, but couldn't say a word for a long time.

After a long while, he managed to squeeze out a dry and timid sentence, "You, you dare!"

Lu Xuan chuckled lightly, and with his backhand, he produced another stone, crushing it again with ease. With his actions and a sneering look, he silently declared: You can try for yourself whether I dare or not.

Officers:!!!

The audience in the live broadcast room were so excited that they started to cheer: "If you have the guts, use your head to fight the host! Don't be a coward!"

Seeing Lu Xuan's firm attitude, the villagers completely lost their fear. Young, impulsive and passionate people like Li Tuo even showed expressions of eagerness and impatience to try.

Beat up the police. They had never dared to think about such a thing before. If they could really beat them up today, it would be enough for them to brag about for the rest of their lives, right?

They now hope that these officials will not be cowardly.

Come on! If you're a man, do it!

Officers:! Since you're not the ones getting beaten, of course you should do it!

The officers recalled the fear they had felt when they had seen the gambling house thugs being beaten into pig heads not long ago. The arrogant and angry expressions on their faces receded like the tide, and they looked obviously withdrawn.

Especially when they noticed that Lu Xuan gestured to the villagers again, the others excitedly made a gesture to surround them, and they jumped up as if in response, turned around and ran without hesitation.

As he ran, he didn't forget to shout: "We will go back and tell the adults what happened today. He won't let you go. You can just wait to be kicked out tomorrow!"

The audience in the live broadcast room booed: If you have the guts, don’t run, you coward!

"Leaving now?" Li Tuo did not hide the regret on his face at all.

Li Tie's mouth twitched, "Do you really want to fight them?"

Li Tuo shrugged, "Fight if you want, it's not like we can't defeat you."

Li Tie slapped him on the back of the head and cursed, "After all, they're officials. We got into a fight in the trading street on our second day after arriving. With the constant disturbances, there's no guarantee that the four major forces in the city won't think we're troublemakers and gang up on us. That would be a real headache."

Li Tuo curled his lips. Lu Xuan's ability was so strong, and there were many awakened people in the village. Why should he be afraid of them?

It’s a pity that he hasn’t awakened his superpowers yet, otherwise he would be able to show off his power.

Others were not as impulsive as Li Tuo. They were more worried: "Will they really bring a group of people to drive us away tomorrow?"

"So do we leave or do we really fight?"

"Let's go!" Li Tuo snorted. "At worst, we can just find a place in the ruins of the city to set up a tent, or use the safe house to live in! It's more comfortable than living in a mansion!"

As Lu Xuan walked into the house, he said calmly, "Just pay the rent. As long as we don't want to leave, no one can drive us away."

The audience in the live broadcast room laughed: [The host's words sound like those nail households in ancient times who refused to leave during demolition.]

After hearing Lu Xuan's words, the villagers who were originally worried about various things immediately put their minds at ease, relaxed their brows, and happily followed him back to the house. They also told the people who stayed behind about their gains that day.

·

The actions of the people of Yunlu Village during the day caused quite a stir among the four major forces.

Especially the county government, which had been humiliated, and the gambling house, which had suffered a huge loss, were so angry that they wanted to rush to the houses in the east of the city to beat up the villagers of Yunlu Village to vent their anger.

The old county magistrate was barely appeased by his subordinates' words that they must bring him the most beautiful woman among the group. As for Feng Hu, he was unsure of what kind of strange magic Lu Xuan had used, so he did not dare to act rashly.

However, many of his men suffered broken bones and one of them seemed to be dying. Feng Hu still got very angry in the house, beating and smashing things, making a lot of noise.

The wealthy businessmen were in the south of the city with them, so naturally they would not fail to notice it.

While they were gloating, they were also very moved by the wealth displayed by Yunlu Village.

Although they were so focused on how many good things the other party could come up with today that they forgot to test it, for them, knowing that the other party had the supplies they wanted was already a great gain.

In addition, the people of Yunlu Village proved through their actions that they were not objects that could be easily bullied, and the wealthy businessmen and landlords had a clear attitude towards them.

Make friends!

First, find a way to establish a relationship with them, and then exchange as much supplies as possible from those people!

Leave the task of stirring up hatred to the gambling houses and government offices.

If the people of Yunlu Village suffered losses at the hands of these two groups, they could still find an opportunity to mediate and do them a favor, which would make it easier to get supplies.

As for the gentry...

In the small courtyard in the west of the city.

Chen Bing briefly recounted his encounter with the people from Yunlu Village and the details of his transaction with Lu Xuan.

At the end, he specifically reminded: "All uncles have heard about what happened today. Brother Lu and his men are very powerful. It's best not to provoke them."

One official said, "We have no conflict of interest with them, let alone any grudges against them. There's no need to provoke them."

Others nodded in agreement.

Chen Bing has already agreed to stand with them. With the addition of more than 30 experts from the caravan, their overall strength has increased a lot. There is no need to force those people from Yunlu Village to join them. If they offend the other party, it will backfire.

With Chen Bing's trading relationship with them, they already have an advantage over the other three forces.

They discussed for a while about the vacuum packaging mentioned by Lu Xuan and the nutritional supplements that could fill the stomach that they had heard about today. Someone even contributed a few nutritional supplements that he had snatched during the day and gave each person a small bite so that everyone could experience the taste and the degree of fullness together.

"It tastes a bit like porridge, but you can't see any rice grains in it, and you can't taste the unique aroma of millet..."

"It's a texture I've never tasted before. I can't tell what it's made of."

"But it's really filling. I didn't have time to eat dinner last night, and I'm already half full after just one bite."

The appetite of the elderly is not as good as that of the young. All the elders in the clan had eaten before coming here, but now they just took a bite of the nutritional supplement and felt uncomfortable.

Several old men couldn't help but quietly loosen their tight waistbands and breathed a sigh of relief silently.

Then he said with a look of joy, "This is indeed a good thing. I heard the price is not expensive. If we can exchange more, the disaster victims in the west of the city will have less hunger."

Others nodded in agreement, "I just wonder how much stock they have."

"Since they're willing to trade it, they shouldn't be short of it. Brother Chen Liu still has a deal with them, right? Then we can ask if they can give us some more of this...what's it called?"

"Nutrients."

"That's right! Nutrients."

"It's said that this thing can be kept for a year or two, or even longer, as long as it's not opened. It's perfect as emergency food in times of disaster."

"It's a pity that there was no such good stuff during the previous high fever period. Otherwise, those who were too hungry to bear it and went out to look for food would not have died from the heat."

"It's all in the past, don't mention it."

"The high fever period is over, but didn't those people say there would be floods next?"

The room, which had been filled with constant chatter, suddenly became quiet, and the elders' faces darkened slightly.

The young people realized that they had said something wrong and kept their mouths shut, not daring to say anything more.

An elder looked around at the people around him and asked, "What do you think about the flood they said might happen? Do you believe it?"

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Someone whispered, "It's been raining a lot more lately, but it hasn't rained in over two months. Maybe God just dumped all the rain at once? It'll be fine once it's over."

"That's right!" Several people agreed with this statement.

"Maybe those people are just making up nonsense to scare people."

Chen Bing disagreed, "What good would it do them to scare people with something like this? They don't have any grudges against the disaster victims in the city, so why would they do something so annoying and annoying?"

The others were speechless.

It seems that it is really unnecessary.

Old Master Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Whether it's true or not, I still need to meet the person in person and carefully inquire about their evidence before I can make a specific judgment."

Whether there is a flood or not is a matter of life and death for all the victims in the city and cannot be ambiguous.

The other elders nodded in agreement. "Indeed, it won't hurt to check."

A certain official suddenly asked, "Do you think the county government and the gambling house would believe what Yunlu Village said?"

The elder beside him shook his head subtly and said, "It's hard to say. Maybe they just take it as a joke, or maybe they have doubts in their hearts, or maybe they just wish it were true."

The others understood what he meant after a brief thought.

Fearing the danger of natural disasters, but at the same time being greedy and wanting to maintain the power and status they currently hold, naturally leads to conflicts in their thoughts.

But they are different.

They are all people who have lived a happy life to the end. They have experienced both good and bad things in life. They have never been officials and have no desire for power. They also do not have the perverted idea like Feng Hu who wants to trample everyone under his feet and dominate them at will.

The main reason for becoming the fourth largest force in the city is to keep as many people alive as possible, and there is not much interest in fighting for power and profit.

Old Master Chen looked at Chen Bing and said, "Only your caravan has had contact with them, so we still have to rely on you to act as a go-between. You said they asked you to get some pepper seeds. Do you have any?"

Chen Bing said with a bitter face, "The seeds and other goods were left in the warehouse in the north of the city."

Speaking of this, Chen Bing thought of his home that was separated from him by a crack in the ground and he couldn't return to it, and the large amount of goods that he didn't know if they had been taken away, and his expression became extremely heartbroken.

Old Master Chen patted his nephew's shoulder and said comfortingly, "We happen to be heading to the north of the city tomorrow. If you go with us, there's still a chance to retrieve the supplies. It will also be convenient to contact Yunlu Village when the time comes."

Chen Bing nodded vigorously, "Okay!"

So many supplies are important assets for future disasters, and he will never give up.

Even once you get the things, you have to find a way to get rid of some of the less important ones as soon as possible in exchange for more cold-relieving herbs and other warming supplies.

·

The next morning, the rain was still falling. A thin layer of rainwater accumulated in the courtyard of the villagers' houses. The temperature was also lower than the previous two days and it was already a bit cold. However, this did not affect the young and strong people who stayed behind yesterday and the villagers who did not have enough shopping yesterday and continued to go out shopping.

The disaster victims who had tasted the sweetness yesterday were also particularly enthusiastic when they saw people from Yunlu Village appear in the trading street. They rushed over and took the people to their stalls to see the goods.

Lu Xuan did not go out today, or to be more precise, he did not go to the trading street.

He leaped onto the roof and aimed the live camera towards the north of the city.

The audience was wondering what he was doing. When they looked closely, they found that the underground crack, which was supposed to be empty, was actually full of people. There were about a hundred of them at a glance.

[Why are so many people in the city rushing to where to go? Didn't Miao An tell the host and the others not to get close to the crack?]

【Is there some treasure under the crack? 】

[Maybe he felt that life was too hard and wanted to jump off and end it all?]

[A hundred or so people agreed to go down together? What nonsense are you talking about?]

Lu Xuan glanced at the large area of buildings in the north of the city that were blocked by the city wall and said slowly, "Is it possible that they are not interested in the cracks, but in the north of the city?"

This area occupies at least a quarter of the entire county's supplies. He doesn't believe that the four major forces will remain indifferent. Sure enough, people are coming.

"Ah Xuan, what's going on over there?" Li Tie and other villagers looked up at Lu Xuan in the yard.

Lu Xuan expressed his own judgment: "It should be that people from the four major forces are preparing to go to the north of the city to plunder supplies."

Everyone was surprised, "Isn't there a crack over there? How do we get through?"

"Build a wooden bridge."

Lu Xuan easily jumped down from the roof and said, "I'm going to take a look. Village chief, do you want to come with me?"

Li Tie's heart moved, and his eyes lit up slightly, "The four major forces are going to plunder supplies in the north of the city, so let's go..."

Lu Xuan chuckled, "If they can plunder, why can't we?"

Li Tie clapped his hands and said, "Let's go! Let's go together!"

Not only do they want to go, but they also want to go in a hovercraft!
