Chapter 81 Su Yue gets angry
Seeing a girl pulling him, the waiter broke free from Su Yue's restraints and waved his hands at her impatiently: "Go away, go away, what crazy woman are you talking nonsense here? We have no moldy rice left in the grain store, so where can we get good rice?"
Su Yue suppressed the urge to strike. Looking at the somewhat uncontrolled refugees below, she shouted, "Fellow villagers, every grain store in the city has plenty of good rice, which is perfectly acceptable for you to buy. But they're selling you moldy rice at a high price. Eating that moldy rice can kill you, you know? Are you willing to accept this? If you're not willing, go to the government office and appeal for justice. You refugees are human beings too. You are all good citizens."
"What? These black-hearted merchants, we've been eating moldy rice for months. They've been taking our hard-earned money, not to mention killing us. No wonder so many people die every day. This is murder for money. Let's go to the government office and file a complaint."
Among the refugees there was a man dressed as a teacher. He shouted loudly, and a group of refugees followed him and rushed towards the yamen in a noisy manner.
The shopkeeper was running around anxiously inside. The moldy rice that was there just now disappeared in the blink of an eye. He also heard the refugees making trouble outside and Su Yue fanning the flames.
This matter cannot be made into a big deal, otherwise it will be impossible to clean up the mess.
The shopkeeper rushed out and saw Su Yue talking alone, still inciting the refugees. He hurriedly said, "Young lady, stop talking nonsense here. What is your intention in fanning the flames?"
Su Yue stared at him fiercely, pointed at the shopkeeper's nose and cursed: "What I said is not the truth. You black-hearted merchants, don't you have any idea of what you are doing? You say I am talking nonsense here, and you dare to say that there is no good food in your store? Do you want to let everyone in to take a look?
You're selling moldy rice, which is usually worth nothing, for fifty coins per pound, and good rice for a hundred coins per pound. Are you selling gold or silver? You're taking advantage of the drought to extort money from the people. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?
Su Yue poked the shopkeeper hard in the chest.
The shopkeeper was frightened by Su Yue's aura, and his legs went weak. But when he thought that a grown man like him was actually frightened by a girl, he straightened his chest and was about to speak, but unexpectedly the refugees rushed up and surrounded him.
"Yes, boss, do you dare to let us in to take a look?" A group of people rushed up and asked, "Good rice is good rice, it doesn't matter if it's a little expensive, but we can buy some to save our lives."
"Shopkeeper, please sell us some rice. If we can't sell any, we'll starve to death."
The shopkeeper was so angry that he blew his beard and glared. He pushed the refugees away and shouted, "You guys are so shameless and you still want to see our shop run away! Get out of here! We have no rice left. We have no rice left at all."
He would not sell any more of these ungrateful and untouchable people, not even a grain of rice.
"So what this girl said is true? You black-hearted businessmen, you will not have a good death, you will be struck by lightning." A woman in her forties was so angry that she trembled and pointed at the shopkeeper and cursed.
“Sell us good rice.”
“Sell us good rice.”
The refugees were angry and rushed forward into the shop.
Su Yue curled her lips and quickly moved to stand aside.
"Close the door, close the door." The shopkeeper was shocked by the scene. He quickly stopped the refugees and shouted loudly to the waiter in the shop.
After he shouted, he was about to slip into the shop, but Murong Li was quick-witted and grabbed him, and stopped the waiter from closing the shop.
Suddenly, several ordinary-looking men came out of the shop, carrying several large bags in their hands.
"Don't rush, everyone line up quickly. The store owner is distributing food to everyone today." The leading man shouted using his internal strength.
When everyone heard that there was free rice, they immediately quieted down and quickly lined up.
The shopkeeper was dumbfounded when he heard this. When did he get food to the refugees? But when he met the eyes of the man who caught him, he wanted to open his mouth and shout, but found that he couldn't.
Murong Li gave him a cold smile and pressed the mute button when he caught him.
The shopkeeper just stared at Murong Li in horror.
"What? Didn't the shopkeeper say there was no good food? Look at all this, it shouldn't be yours, right? But regardless of whether it's yours or not, you made so much dirty money before, so I'll be kind and help you cleanse that ugly, black heart of yours."
Murong Li grabbed the shopkeeper's collar and said sinisterly.
Hearing the shopkeeper's chills, he shivered with fear, tilted his head and fainted. After a while, Murong Li smelled a strong smell of urine. He threw the shopkeeper to the ground in disgust, pressed a point on his body, and kicked him in a corner.
Then he looked at Su Yue in the crowd and smiled at her.
When Su Yue saw those people carrying out food, she was stunned for a moment, but she soon realized that these people were people around Murong Li.
She squeezed through the crowd, came to his side, and held his hands with both of hers. This move of his was so pleasing to the eyes.
"What's wrong? Are you still angry?" Murong Li whispered in her ear.
Su Yue shook her head. The location was wrong, otherwise she would have kissed him one by one.
Looking at the refugees with smiling faces, Su Yue felt extremely happy.
The two of them looked at the waiter next to them.
The man who usually looked high and mighty was now trembling, holding his head, huddled in a corner, looking at Su Yue and the others, not daring to breathe.
There was a lot of commotion here, and many people came to watch. Some stood at the door pointing and talking, while others simply ran to the queue to get rice.
There were a few shifty-looking people in the crowd. After seeing this, they immediately slipped out of the crowd and ran back to report the news.
Su Yue pretended not to see it. No matter how these people hid, they could not escape her mental power. So what if they closed their shops? She would collect all the rice from these black-hearted merchants, and then they would go to the city gate to distribute food for free in the afternoon.
These rotten-hearted merchants completely pissed off Su Yue, as they directly hit her sore spot.
Sure enough, those sneaky people ran back to the grain shop and reported the situation there to the various shopkeepers. They also stopped selling and closed the shop like here.
The refugees who were left with confused faces, like the refugees here, immediately sat on the ground and cried bitterly.
Su Yue used her spiritual power to observe and saw that the situation was the same all over the street. Wherever there was a grain seller, there were large numbers of refugees gathered at the door. They kept asking, shouting, and knocking on the door.
Su Yue was so angry that she immediately used her spiritual power to cover any store that sold moldy rice and closed it, and looted everything in the store, no matter if it was good rice, moldy rice, or noodles, as long as it was edible, she did not leave any of it.
These were all unscrupulous merchants who were willing to eat people without leaving any bones behind. Su Yue did not feel that she was being excessive. She even plundered all the money in the shop, leaving only an empty shop.
