The next morning.
In the twelve county towns, the gates of the county government offices were closed.
But many victims had already gathered at the door.
Everyone stretched their necks, their eyes filled with anxious anticipation.
They are waiting for the distribution of disaster relief supplies.
Ever since Mingjingsi released the news yesterday, the entire county has been in an uproar.
All the disaster victims in the county came running over.
Whether it's true or not, this is always a chance to survive.
But there are also some people who dismiss this.
At this moment, a lot of people gathered on some tall buildings around the county government office.
These people come from good families. Although they are not as wealthy as the gentry and nobles, they are still comparable to ordinary people.
Although this severe drought and plague had an impact on them, it was not significant.
Upon learning that the Mingjing Division was organizing disaster relief, they rushed over to watch the fun.
In front of them, there were some fruits and desserts, and they were leisurely enjoying themselves.
People's joys and sorrows are not the same.
At this moment, they were looking down at the disaster victims who were crowding the streets. Not only did they not have sympathy, but they looked disdainful.
"Oh, a bunch of idiots, do you really think the Mirror Division can save them? Ridiculous. Everyone, what do you think?"
A young man shook his head with a look of disdain.
The people nearby immediately laughed and started giving advice.
"Although I've never met this Lord Chen, I can only say that he doesn't understand Mozhou. This isn't the capital, so he can't get away with it."
"Indeed, a powerful dragon cannot defeat a local snake. I heard that he invited all the gentry and dignitaries to gather in Xiaba County yesterday. I guess it was for disaster relief."
"Don't even think about it. Those gentry and dignitaries are so shrewd. How could this Mr. Chen possibly take advantage of them?"
"That's right. Those powerful people are all big shots. We can't even curry favor with them. So, isn't it easy to toy with this Mr. Chen?"
As they talked and nodded, they discussed how they would visit the local gentry and dignitaries and compliment them.
These people are like this. They look down on ordinary people, but they can't wait to kneel down and lick the boots of the powerful.
"These disaster victims are so stupid. They actually believe that the Mirror Bureau can save them?"
"Honestly, the Mirror Bureau is only okay in the capital, so what's the point of it being here?"
Although they are doing well locally, they are still just small people.
What happened previously in Tianzhi County and Shangfeng County has not yet spread here.
They all looked down on Chen Yu and Ming Jingsi.
"Hey, this Lord Chen is really out of his mind. Isn't it better to stay in the capital? He actually came here to be humiliated."
"Just wait and see. I guess the gate of the county government office won't be open today. These people are just waiting here in vain."
"Actually, I think it's better if some of these disaster victims die."
"These farmers have such low quality, some of them dying would actually be a kind of purification, making the living environment for us better."
A group of people pointed and talked, looking at the people on the long street as if they were watching a joke.
But the next moment, the door of the county government office opened.
The people from the Mingjingsi came out with the yamen runners, and the crowd immediately became agitated.
The faces of the people watching the excitement from the upper floors all froze in surprise.
The door actually opened?
Do they really want to provide disaster relief? But where will they get the relief supplies?
At the gate of the county government office, the people from the Mingjing Division pressed their hands, used Wu Yuan to speak loudly, and their voices echoed throughout the long street.
"Everyone, don't panic. There are plenty of disaster relief supplies this time. Everyone has some. Line up now to receive them."
The crowd formed a long column that stretched as far as the eye could see.
With a wave of their hands, the people from the Mingjing Division immediately transported cartloads of food to the door and presented them to everyone.
In addition, there is a lot of money and so on.
Under the supervision of Mingjingsi, every disaster victim received food, property, and essential medicines.
Last night, after the Mingjing Division brought back the gentry and dignitaries from various places, they searched their homes overnight and transported all their supplies to the county government office.
The people who confiscated the property were none other than the local gentry and dignitaries themselves!
They raided their own house!
This scene of disaster relief shocked all the people watching on the surrounding buildings.
"How is this possible? Where did they get so much disaster relief supplies?"
"Hiss! Look! Isn't that Patriarch Tian? Wasn't he invited to the banquet yesterday? How come he's standing next to Ming Jingsi now, helping distribute supplies?"
"Could it be that these supplies..."
The group's pupils shrank and they had a bold guess in their minds.
"Everyone, everyone, something big has happened! Something big has happened!"
A man ran upstairs in a panic, his face full of shock.
"Mr. Li, what's wrong with you? Why are you so flustered?" Seeing the person coming, the group of people were a little surprised.
The man called Li Shao quickly waved his hands, breathing heavily.
"Everyone, I just received news from Xiaba County. Yesterday's dinner was incredible, incredible!"
After telling what happened last night, a group of people stared and gasped in fear.
"Oh my god, this, this can't be true? This Lord Chen is so powerful?"
"Only two hundred people killed over thirty thousand people? And they even defeated the Immortal Sect?"
"They killed more than a dozen powerful people? They forced everyone to raid their own homes? This, this, this..."
Exclamations continued.
Just now, they looked down on Chen Yu and Ming Jingsi, but what about now?
So scared!
I can’t imagine that Chen Yu is so fierce!
Just as everyone was shocked, several more people rushed upstairs.
They were all servants in these people's homes, and their faces were filled with anxiety at the moment.
