He successfully stayed with Hua Ansu.
However, not everyone in Hua Fubing stayed in the end; a small portion of them were forced to return by their families because their families believed in Ruan Geng.
Hua Ansu didn't say anything about these things, but during the break when Minister Dorenda was distributing the food, he called these people over for a short meeting that lasted a few minutes.
Meng Wanwan only knew that these people had gone there with trepidation. She was far away and didn't know what Hua Ansu had said to them. She only knew that when they came out, she could clearly see that the expressions on the faces of the eight people were very tragic, as if they had been collectively reprimanded.
Meng Wanwan thought, "She must have been scolded. Serves her right, they'll have to act like lapdogs!" Ha, some people pretend to be gentle and generous on the surface, but when it comes to their own interests, they still expose themselves. This woman is indeed petty and narrow-minded. She must find a way to make Babu see Hua Ansu's true colors!
The newly built city was only decent in terms of its walls, which were indeed tall and majestic. In the center, there were only a few unused houses, and they were even unfurnished. All the crops had died, so the land was barren and desolate, without a trace of greenery. It truly seemed to be all show and no substance.
When Minister Torenda and Hua Ansu arrived with their entourage, the crowd following behind them was bewildered. They only knew that the deputy minister had something to say, but they didn't know what she would say this time.
More than 500 people stood densely below the stage, while Hua Ansu was the only one on the stage. She said, "I only have one sentence: everyone, don't worry about the food problem. Just follow the arrangements, and this difficulty will soon be over."
"If you have any questions, raise your hand and ask one by one."
Immediately, someone raised their hand, "Vice Minister Hua, why don't we need to worry about food? There's simply not enough to eat!"
It was distributed according to headcount, but there wasn't a share for the nine deputy ministers, and what they received wouldn't even cover this year's expenses.
Hua Ansu said, "The grain I received was certainly not enough, but I have ways to obtain sufficient grain."
Before anyone could discuss it, Hua Ansu decisively let the next person ask a question.
"Vice Minister, can A-I-Gu really save everyone?"
Hua Ansu nodded. "He definitely can."
Her voice was firm, carrying a power that inexplicably convinced people, and many people's uneasy hearts gradually calmed down.
"But……"
The man didn't dare to ask, but Hua Ansu told him not to hold back and to ask whatever he wanted. So he said, "Vice Minister, but Wanwan has a formula to prevent strange diseases. Ayigu never mentioned prevention, so should we use Wanwan's formula to prevent them?"
Hua Ansu shook her head. "On this point, I can only say that prevention is useless."
The people below immediately started discussing it. After all, it's better to believe it's true than not to believe it's not. Why not give it a try?
Hua Ansu frowned. "Quiet."
The crowd quieted down.
Hua Ansu raised an eyebrow slightly. These people were indeed obedient and "trusted" her, the deputy minister, quite a bit. But she knew that this good discipline wasn't due to her personally, but rather to Minister Duolunda. His popularity among the tribe wasn't something that could be easily eroded by Ruan Geng's meddling. He was a minister deeply loved by the tribe, and the fact that these people were still willing to listen to her, an "outsider," because of Minister Duolunda's words was enough to convince them.
"I told everyone I had a few things to do before I left last time. I wonder if you all remember?"
The person below:
"I remember, I remember, it's about solving the food problem."
"And then there's land grabbing and city building!"
"Grow crops!"
"And we need to research new seeds!"
