Chapter 435: Tricking People into Changing Directions
After Wu Ren and Major General Ji distributed the relief supplies, they left.
When they left, many people in North City who had been helped by them opened their doors and watched them leave.
I saw that there was a person standing in front of every house that opened its door. Even though he was shivering in the cold wind, he still didn't go into the house.
Young Master Ji sighed, "The common people have it so hard." The families who came out to see him off probably could only afford this one set of winter clothes, which they would give to whoever went out.
Wu Ren nodded and said, "Let's go quickly." If they left quickly, these people could get into the house earlier.
The Yanmen County Magistrate also watched them leave from the city wall, feeling a mixture of joy and worry. Joy that the pressure of disaster relief was indeed less, but worry that this year's tax revenue might not be good.
After Wu Ren and Ji Dashao left the city, they went to a village ten miles outside the city, took the last batch of victims, and continued forward.
After hurrying, they finally caught up with the main force.
They immediately chose a deserted village to rest and wait for Sixth Master to arrive.
Wu Ren had just taken a sip of hot water when Lu Wei arrived.
Lu Wei is a very friendly person. After Wu Ren received the task from his master, he started to make plans. He could leave anyone behind on the trip to Yanmen, but he must not be left behind.
During this period, he was providing disaster relief in Yanmen, and Lu Wei was in the wild responsible for gathering the victims.
"Butler Wu, something's happening."
"What's going on?" Wu Ren quickly swallowed a mouthful of hot water before asking.
Young Master Ji also became alert. He knew that Wu Ren had arranged people among the disaster victims, and their people tried their best to integrate with the disaster victims and find out the situation.
"Well, there's a family among the disaster victims that I think should be given some attention."
Wu Ren motioned him to continue.
"This family's surname is Luo, and they're from Nandi. They fled with our Liaodong Chamber of Commerce's grain transport team during the Nandi flood. They later stopped in Nanyang to stay with relatives. After the earthquake, they left Nanyang again, intending to go to Liaodong County. But when they entered Jizhou, they suddenly remembered their relatives in Yanmen, so they went to Bingzhou instead."
After hearing this, Wu Ren was speechless. They just went wherever there was a problem. They were so unlucky.
Young Master Ji also kept shaking his head, "It's tragic, it's really tragic!"
Tao Xun was also muttering, "Why is it that this group of people are always in trouble wherever they go? They are so unlucky."
At this time, Wu Ren and Lu Wei looked at each other. With a son of luck like Sixth Master, it seemed normal for unlucky people like the Luo family to appear, right?
Wu Ren said to him, "Send someone to invite that family over."
"good!"
Both of them were very worried about what disaster would happen after the Luo family went to Pingzhou.
It is better to believe it than not to believe it. We cannot let this family bring disaster to their Dapingzhou.
When Luo Da's family was invited in alone, they all looked very uneasy.
"This is General Manager Wu and Manager Lu from our Liaodong Chamber of Commerce." The subordinate introduced them to the Luo family.
"How are you, Chief Steward Wu? How are you, Steward Lu?"
"No need to be so polite." Wu Ren tried his best to act gentle to dispel the family's uneasiness, and at the same time signaled to Lu Wei that he had to take charge of this matter.
Lu Wei nodded slightly, then took a step forward and said, "Luo Da, we have heard about your family's experience. We are really sorry to trouble you."
When the Luo family heard Lu Wei's words, they were so sad that they almost cried.
Lu Wei asked them first, "Are you and your family planning to follow our arrangements and head to Liaodong County?"
"Yes."
"Have you ever thought about changing the route? I think there is a place that is more suitable for you." Lu Wei suggested.
The Luo family's faces changed when they heard this. There was anger and despair on their faces. Was he going to abandon them?
"Don't you think you're a little unlucky?"
Then, wouldn't he let them go to Liaodong County?
"I think there's a place that might be more suitable for you than Liaodong County."
"where?"
"Chang'an!"
Chang'an?
"After this year's experiences, I believe your family has sensed something is amiss. The bad luck surrounding you can only be suppressed by the dragon energy of the True Dragon Emperor."
The Luo family looked at each other in bewilderment. This indeed sounded quite reasonable. Although they didn't want to admit that they were so unlucky and had been unlucky, they couldn't help but feel uneasy inside.
Lu Wei softened his tone and said, "It's not that we don't want you to go to Liaodong County. Firstly, there are too many people in Liaodong County. If you go there, including the disaster victims mentioned above, there is a high probability that you will be arranged to settle in the other three counties of Pingzhou."
"Secondly, I'm worried that once you go there, you'll end up like you did before, in Nanyang or Yanmen, and never be able to settle down. It must be tiring to be constantly traveling like this, right?"
The Luo family lowered their heads and wiped away their tears. These words touched their hearts. After traveling all the way from the South, how could they not want to settle down?
Tao Xun nudged Young Master Ji next to him with his elbow, and Young Master Ji turned his head slightly to look at him.
Tao Xun whispered, "How can they be so talkative?"
The dead can be said to be alive, it's amazing.
The Luo family was really cheated. If ordinary people met people like Lu Wei and Wu Ren, they would probably be sold out and have to pay them.
This time, Young Master Ji nodded with a sympathetic look.
Lu Wei consoled them for a few more words, and finally said, "Well, you follow us, and we'll split up when we reach Shangdang County. Also, the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce will cover your travel expenses to Chang'an."
"How can this be done?" Old Man Luo waved his hands repeatedly.
When Lu Wei mentioned that the dragon energy of the emperor living in Chang'an could suppress all filth, the Luo family was already tempted.
"Uncle Luo, just take it. This is just a small token of our appreciation. We can't send you to Chang'an, so we have to let your family go on the journey alone. We are really sorry."
By this time, the Luo family was basically willing to change their route to Chang'an.
Wu Ren then ordered his men to take the Luo family back to the refugee camp ahead.
After the Luo family left, Master Ji and Tao Xun complained about the two being superstitious!
Wu Ren and Lu Wei did not argue. Having seen their Sixth Master's incredible luck, they thought the Luo family's misfortune was also scary, right?
