Chapter 282 Character Issues (2/2)



But as you've seen today, so have I.

Just as Xiaoyu had said, refugees did indeed arrive in Wuning Prefecture.

I glanced at the people who came and thought there were more than twice as many as those from our Chijia'ao village.

That is to say, there are at least seven hundred people.

I don't know how many people came when they first arrived.

But those who managed to cross the Beilian Mountains and reach this place were no pushovers.

His words were unanimously affirmed by everyone.

So after everyone nodded, he continued:

"It is truly valuable that Xiaoyu was able to calm them down first, giving us two or three days to prepare."

You are all the heads of your respective families. Now, let's discuss whether or not to keep them here.

Yeah, I mean, we'll just stay in that burned-down place in Beishan and settle down.

If they don't stay, what methods are there to drive them away without causing harm to the villagers?

The heads of the various families in Chijia'ao were at a loss for words upon hearing this.

These refugees, they only came into contact with them today while putting out the fire.

But one thing is certain: these people all have blood on their hands, to some extent.

This blood is different from the kind they get from hunting; it's human blood.

It could be said that they have become so numb by now that they are willing to kill without blinking an eye.

If we can successfully drive the people away, that would be something we desperately want.

However, it's best not to act rashly before you're absolutely certain.

Otherwise, you might end up getting into trouble instead of getting rid of the person!

Thinking about all this, the various heads of the family spoke up one after another:

"Chief, if they can settle down here peacefully, we don't necessarily have to drive them away."

In terms of numbers, we at Chijia'ao are at a disadvantage.

"Chieftain, I think everyone has a tough time."

They were forced to leave their homes and come here because of a disaster that threatened their lives.

They haven't done anything to us yet, so we don't need to deny them even a way to survive.

"Chieftain, how about we secretly send someone down the mountain to report to the authorities, and then have the soldiers disguise themselves as people who have come to attend the wedding?"

"When the time comes, we'll take advantage of the village's weddings, invite them for drinks, get them drunk, and then take them down the mountain, how about that?"

Chi Yu never dreamed that what this third person said would actually be agreed upon by those around him.

She looked over and saw that the person speaking was Chi Sanchui, and was speechless.

Chi Yu really didn't like him.

Because his second brother injured himself while hunting, he got involved with his sister-in-law and eventually married her, and then lived under the same roof as his second brother.

In Chi Yu's view, this behavior was truly disgusting, and could even be described as questionable in terms of character.

Seeing the smug expression on his face after everyone agreed with him, Chi Yu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

"Third cousin, I have doubts about your matter of going down the mountain to report to the authorities and request the assistance of the soldiers."

The crowd, who had initially agreed and thought the idea was excellent, fell silent after hearing Chi Yu speak.

Chi Yu seized the opportunity to say, "After the earthquake, the entire county of Anping was destroyed."

Now, people in the county town are doing everything they can to participate in the reconstruction of the county town, except for building their own houses.

In this way, not only can you earn money, but you can also work a certain number of days to offset the number of days of corvée labor.

Right now, all the officials and soldiers who could help have gone to assist.

It's fair to say that everyone was extremely busy.

Given this situation, with less than a thousand people from Wuning Prefecture coming here, is it really worth the mobilization of such a large force?
