Is there someone behind him supporting him in targeting me like this?
With a sigh, Lu Yuan looked at Xiao Shan, who was in charge of the grain.
How much grain do we have left?
"I ate about 10 jin last night, and now I have more than 80 jin left. I should be able to last a few more days."
Lu Yuan nodded: "Let's gather all the grain together. Recently, everyone's grain rations have been halved."
Zhou Tong and the others nodded in agreement, realizing they had no intention of eating any of this. Hearing this, Jiao Chuang and his group showed a hint of regret on their faces.
They exchanged glances but said nothing.
As night fell, Jiao Chuang secretly slipped out of his tent and ran to the tent next door.
"who?"
The people inside were startled by the commotion outside and quickly sat up to ask what was going on.
Jiao Chuang, who was outside, immediately raised his hand to shush.

"Yeah, let's get some rest. Anyway, we don't have to work these next few days. Gu Wenzhong just wants us to bow down and submit. We can't be cowards."
"That's right, let's go head-to-head with them and see who can hold out the longest. If they don't do all this work, they definitely won't be able to complete their tasks. Let's see who can hold out the longest then."
Upon hearing their words, Jiao Chuang's eyes darted around several times.
"Well, to be honest, it's really just a matter of saving face. Since Boss Lu can't bring himself to do it, why don't the rest of us do it for him?"
The others were stunned when they heard Jiao Chuang's words, and they all looked at him in surprise.
"Holy crap! Are you crazy?!"
