Zhao Xin led his men directly into the city and did not encounter any chaos.
He just saw many people in the city looking at their army in horror.
Zhao Xin saw that among these people, there was an older middle-aged man who seemed to have a knife in his hand.
But the knife looked very broken, with gaps all over it, and basically no longer posed any threat!
Zhao Xin waved his hand and said to the middle-aged man holding the knife, "Come here... Can I ask you something?"
The middle-aged man holding the knife was so frightened after hearing what Zhao Xin said that he immediately threw away the knife and said to Zhao Xin tremblingly: "My lord, I really don't want to attack you. This knife is used to cut vegetables!
My lord, we really have nothing left here.
The people in our city don't even have food to eat now. My Lord, if you want something, please look somewhere else!"
The guy's face was full of fear, he was really afraid that Zhao Xin would kill him.
Zhao Xin said, "When did I ever say I wanted your things?
We were just passing by and wanted to ask you for directions.
What is your place? Have you ever heard of the Great Qin Empire?"
The middle-aged man said, "Sir, our place is called Nieyang City.
As for where the Qin Empire was, we have never heard of it.
Could it be that this gentleman is from the Great Qin Empire?"
Zhao Xin nodded and said, "We are all businessmen from the Qin Empire.
Originally we were sailing on the sea, hoping to open up new trade routes.
We just didn't expect to encounter a huge storm at sea, which eventually caused us to lose our way and arrive at this place. We don't know how to return to the Great Qin Empire."
The middle-aged man found that Zhao Xin spoke in a very gentle tone, as if he had no intention of harming them, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He quickly said to Zhao Xin, "Sir, if you are really businessmen, you would be in great danger if you came to this place.
There are a lot of thieves in this place. They rob things and food.
The little food we had managed to gather was all snatched away by them.
Now people in our city don’t know how to survive.
Hundreds of people have starved to death in the past two days. If this continues, our city will soon become a ghost town."
"There are such things. Are those thieves so scary?"
Zhao Xin found it incredible, because in his impression, how should I put it, even if it is a thief, it needs to talk about sustainable development.
Because there is such a saying in his memory.
It is said that in the beginning, the world had no concept of country!
But at the same time, there are many gangs of thieves.
These gangs of thieves robbed things everywhere, killed people and stole goods, causing great disasters to these worlds.
But later these thieves found that if they continued to rob like this, there would be no one left for them to rob.
Because they kill people when they rob, even those who are not killed by them will starve to death because they have no resources to survive.
If the people they rob are starving to death, then they themselves will probably starve to death as well.
So these gangs of thieves reached an agreement with those who were robbed. From then on, they would no longer rob directly, but would only ask those ordinary farmers to hand over a portion of food as protection. At the same time, the thieves would be responsible for protecting these people, thus forming a sustainable development model.
Needless to say, what this model will develop into in the future is self-evident.
In a place like today, even humans can build a city like this, which is enough to show that the civilization in this place is relatively developed.
How could such a thing happen?
Those thieves are not even capable of being thieves. It won't be long before they bring about their own destruction.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xin couldn't help but laugh and said, "How could there still be such a thief in this place?
But don't worry, I'm not afraid of those thieves. You all look very hungry, right?
We have some food in our team, so we'll let you have some for now."
In fact, their team did not carry much food.
There were only 200 people in Zhao Xin's group, and the food they brought with them was only enough to feed them for a few months.
Hu Tang has two to three thousand men under his command. The food they carry is neither too much nor too little, but it is enough to feed these two to three thousand people for a few months.
There are about 100,000 people in this city now.
If they took out all the food, it might only be enough to feed the people in the city for one or two days.
But he felt that it didn't matter, because as the emperor of the Qin Empire, wasn't it easy for him to get food?
Now after hearing his words, everyone in this city's eyes lit up.
Their place has been ravaged many times. Outsiders who come here always come to rob things, and have never seen anyone invite them to dinner!
In a short period of time, these people developed a strong liking for Zhao Xin and his team.
Zhao Xin waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. Helping you is what I should do, after all, you've given me so much."
He immediately asked his men to start cooking, and soon the place was filled with the delicious aroma of food that made people's mouths water.
This immediately attracted a large number of people!
Even though the food isn’t ready yet, many people are already eager to eat!
Zhao Xin had no choice but to let his subordinates take charge of the situation and let these 100,000 people line up to receive meals.
To be honest, there is food in this place, but facing 100,000 hungry people is definitely a huge challenge.
Because when people are extremely hungry, they are likely to lose their minds and will definitely not queue up obediently!
However, Zhao Xin's subordinates are now very powerful, and they finally managed to settle everyone down, and everything is in order.
After everyone in the city had a full meal, they were so happy that they almost cried.
Zhao Xin even felt a little dazed. It seemed like the same situation when he had just taken over the Qin Empire.
At that time, for the people of the Qin Empire, being able to eat enough seemed to be a very luxurious thing.
