At this time, this group of people had a new understanding of Ye Lang, that is, he was a little confused. Of course, they later realized that he was not just a little confused, but a completely confused person.
However, this character made these people support Ye Lang even more and prevent others from deceiving Ye Lang, because they felt that Ye Lang was easily fooled by others.
Although it was later proved that those who plotted against Ye Lang would often bring trouble upon themselves and be dragged into a dilemma by Ye Lang, it seemed that Ye Lang was not the type to play the pig and eat the tiger. It was like an unexpected coincidence, which made people even more depressed.
"Why are all these drivers like this? They take the money and run away. Next time I'll just give them the deposit instead of the full fee. I'll pay them when we get to our destination!" Ye Lang had been left behind by the drivers twice. So, he felt the need to adjust his payment method.
Everyone was silent. It seemed that this had nothing to do with whether you gave a deposit or not. Even if you didn't give a penny and paid after receiving the money, the result would be the same.
"Sir, can you walk?" asked the dark and thin man. He was afraid that Ye Lang and Xiao Rui, with their delicate bodies, might not have walked before, and now he was worried about where to find a carriage for them.
"Well, let's go! Lead the way!" Ye Lang nodded. He was not the kind of person who was proud of his body and flesh. He had walked hundreds of miles or even farther on foot, and Xiao Rui was even more so.
After Ye Lang's answer, everyone immediately took Ye Lang to the nearest town, and Ye Lang was surrounded by them and talked to them.
During the conversation, Ye Lang understood more about the situation and realized that these more than a thousand people were only a small part of the total number of people who had fled here. There were at least 100,000 people.
The movement of these people seems to bring a huge burden to the holy city and will also have a great impact on the Ella Empire.
At the same time, Ye Lang also heard more about Gomera County, whether it was folk culture or the hateful things about the lord. He had some understanding of it.
Regarding the Lord's matter, Ye Lang said: "You don't have to hate him anymore. He won't have a good life after losing you."
The dark and thin man was still beside Ye Lang and replied, "They can still continue to be happy. They will be happier without us. They always think we are pariahs!"
"How can you be so stupid? Without common people like you, how can he maintain his regime? Even if your emperor doesn't punish them, they will still die miserably." Ye Lang said, "If I were your emperor, I would definitely let them stay there and never let them leave, nor would I send them any reinforcements."
"Why?"
"Think about it. Without any of you working in production in La Gomera County, even ten or twenty thousand people would be a problem. Now that all of you are missing, there's no new food being produced. Even if they have stored food, it will be gone! Hey, I need to notify Seventh Brother, hehe..."
Ye Lang suddenly thought of a trick that would allow the Ye family to make money while also rewarding and punishing the lord. In Gomera County now, most of the people left behind were nobles and wealthy people, as well as those refugees who couldn't escape!
Now, as long as we send people to rob the food over there and then sell it to them at a high price, it will be more comfortable than robbing money. At the same time, we also need to send people to buy up the poor land over there. It should be very cheap now. We can cultivate the land for a few years, fertilize it, and then plant food. Then we can rob money again, no, make money.
Of course, Ye Lang would also have people arrange for those civilians to watch over their own land.
Originally, this plan might have only taken a small portion, but unexpectedly it turned out to be so successful. The Ye family almost swept away the wealth of the entire Gomera County and owned thousands of acres of fertile land!
In addition to the perfect cooperation of the seventh brother, the third brother and others, the emperor of the Ella Empire also helped intentionally or unintentionally. Just as Ye Lang said, the emperor of the Ella Empire really allowed Gomera County to continue, but cut off all supplies to the county.
Because of this, the Ye family gained both people and money.
This may be God’s reward and punishment!!
Along the way, because Ye Lang and Xiao Rui were surrounded in the middle, people outside who saw them thought they were just an ordinary group of refugees. They could be seen at any time recently, so no one cared.
However, when some lone refugees saw so many of their kind, they would gather together so that they could at least look after each other. Of course, some people felt that they could survive more easily alone and did not follow the large army.
Naturally, no one paid any attention to these people. The refugees who were almost starving to death along the way were the ones they cared about. They gave them food and took them with them. This was the power of a large army.
Although the people rescued by these thousand or so people were only a very small number of those fleeing, and most of them were not rescued, but one more is one less, so there is no fear of less.
And this credit seems to go to Ye Lang, because if it weren't for Ye Lang, these people would not have saved people because they were too busy to take care of themselves.
This also made some people reflect that the conditions were actually the same whether Ye Lang was there or not. Having a few more umbrellas was actually nothing. They had more before, but they were not organized like this.
Given the same circumstances, why didn't I save others before, but can do it now? The reason is actually very simple: it's because I didn't think about it, I didn't think about how I could save myself and others, so I just focused on my own survival.
Many times, people are like this. They can do something, but they don’t do it, making things worse and worse!
Ye Lang's appearance has changed the situation, and it has become better and better. I believe that by then they will be able to survive on their own without the help of the Holy City, and they will also be able to help others.
This is an amazing transformation!!
"Go, you refugees, don't go into the city. Finish your porridge and continue on your way. We have done our best for you!"
In the nearest small town, although the city gate was open, the refugees were not allowed to pass through. However, the small town prepared food for the refugees so that they could continue to survive and continue to move towards their destination. For such a small town, it seemed to be very good. Some towns simply did nothing and just turned people away without extending any helping hand.
"Actually, we sympathize with you, but we really can't afford to feed so many people here!" These are the words of the people who distribute porridge, and they are also the real situation in this small town.
