Chapter 347 Villagers Thank You



Qian Ruoyu nodded and said.

"I know without you telling me that I need to help the capital more, but the situation in the capital is complicated and I can't solve it in a short time."

Qian Ruoyu looked at the two of them again.

"You should also know that the situation at the court is different. Even if I help you a lot, my financial resources are quite limited. If I can't get help from the court, I'm afraid I won't be able to help."

"There are millions of households in the capital. Even if I want to help, even if I spend all the money in the palace, I am afraid there is no way to help them completely!"

After hearing what she said, Chu Mobai nodded directly.

Because he had indeed taken some of the money in the palace to use in the military camp, he didn't know how much money the palace had now, but he was very clear that there was probably not much left.

However, there was only a little money in the palace, and asking Qian Ruoyu to take care of the food and drink for hundreds of people in the palace was already a big problem.

Not to mention that this money can be used to help millions of households in Beijing.

He was quite aware of Qian Ruoyu's difficulties.

At this moment, a soldier came to the door to report.

"Your Majesty, I want to inform you that dozens of villagers are gathering at the gate of the camp and they want to see you!"

Before the soldier could finish his words, another soldier came and continued.

"Your Majesty, we have dozens of villagers at the gate of the camp, hoping to see you!"

The second soldier had just finished speaking when a third soldier came to the door. After seeing this scene, Chu Mobai hurried to the door.

The fourth soldier walked towards this side. Chu Mobai immediately knew that it seemed that there were more than just a few villagers looking for him this time. He also heard a bustling sound at the gate of the camp.

When hearing these voices, Qian Ruoyu felt even happier. It seemed that her plan had worked. Otherwise, why would so many nearby villagers come over?

Qian Ruoyu didn't say anything at this time. She just wanted to wait for Chu Mobai to speak, wanting to know whether Chu Mobai would follow her plan next.

However, Chu Mobai began to lead everyone towards the camp gate.

A dozen soldiers formed a line at the gate of the camp and stopped the villagers at the gate.

But after arriving at the gate of the camp, Chu Mobai was even more shocked, because he unexpectedly discovered that there were hundreds of villagers at the gate of the camp, not just a dozen or twenty.

The moment he saw these hundreds of villagers, Chu Mobai couldn't believe it at all. He never thought that after carrying out Qian Ruoyu's plan, some nearby villagers would actually come forward to thank him!

"Everyone, please be quiet. The prince is here!" Si Yin said loudly.

After Si Yin finished saying this, everyone really quieted down. Whether it was the soldiers at the door or the villagers, they all shut up immediately.

Chu Mobai walked in front of the crowd. Almost all the villagers looked at him in a completely different way. Their eyes were no longer just kind, but full of respect.

Chu Mobai said calmly.

"Thank you very much for coming here, villagers. If there is anything, you can send someone to tell me. It might not be a good idea to have so many people here!"

After hearing what he said, the villagers looked around one by one, and finally selected a village elder and brought him in front of everyone.

The village elder was holding a basket of apples in his hand.

"Ahem, greetings to Lord Ye!"

"Your Highness, what you have done in several villages near us has spread to every corner of the villages. The villagers are so grateful for what you have done!"

"Your Majesty, what you have done is truly a great deed! With a good person like you here, how could the villagers nearby not have good weather and good harvests? Therefore, all of us are here to thank you!"

After saying this, he made way for others and waved to the people behind him.

Just after he waved, the villagers made way for them, and three carts were pushed out from the crowd and placed in front of the military camp.

There were all kinds of things placed on the cart, including grains, fruits, some vegetables and so on, and they all looked to weigh about two or three hundred kilograms.

The village elder said directly.

"We villagers are very grateful for what you have done, Your Majesty, so we have gathered all these things from the nearby villages, hoping to honor you with them!"

"In addition, it can be regarded as military funds. I hope Your Highness will forgive us. Our villages are not rich, and we can only afford to give out these things. Please accept them, Your Highness, as it is a token of our goodwill!"

Si Yin and Chu Mobai were surprised. They didn't expect that things would be just as Qian Ruoyu said. These villagers really came to deliver things.

Chu Mobai did not forget what Qian Ruoyu said. He took a step forward, held the hands of the village elder and said.

"Fellow villagers, it is my duty, and the duty of the entire court, to help the people nearby! Those potions are not only from me, but also from the goodwill of the court!"

"Thank you very much for sending so many supplies, but I know that you are not doing well in your current situation, so I hope you can take these things back. This king cannot accept them!"

"I appreciate your kindness. Please take these things back. Otherwise, I don't want to see you suffer from cold and hunger. The purpose of my giving you the potion is to make your life prosperous, not to ask you to send these things to me!"

After saying this, Chu Mobai clapped his hands. Si Yin behind him immediately understood and hurriedly went behind him.

Not long after, Si Yin brought over six more carts, all loaded with food.

When the villagers saw the six carts, they were extremely shocked.

Chu Mobai said.

"I don't have anything special to give you right now. In that case, I'll give you the food on these six carts. Don't refuse!"

There were six carts, just enough for one village, and each cart held nearly 500 kilograms of grain, which was enough for the villagers in a village to get a share.

Although it’s not much, it can almost be said that Chu Mobai has tried his best!
