Chapter 380 The People's Will



Before he could study it, these milky white spots of light floated directly over and whizzed into his body at an extremely fast speed.

Chen Wangping raised his hand to stop them, but he found that these light spots did not even need to touch his body. They would automatically merge into his body just by approaching him and disappear in the blink of an eye.

And no one else seemed to be able to see the white light, and no one showed any reaction.

A few seconds after the light entered his body, a line of milky white prompts emerged before his eyes:

[People's hearts are gathering, current progress: 1%]

[Note: Public opinion is just a simple way of describing it. The essence of this energy is a more advanced energy.]

"A more advanced energy? Soul energy?"

Chen Wangping thought about it and had a feeling that this energy seemed to be the energy that Tang Huoniu and the others had been striving for, to break through from level five to level six. It was also for this energy that they built the city and won the hearts of the people.

He looked up in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion, feeling a little guilty.

I don’t know how this kind of soul energy is collected. Will Lord Long find out that he has taken away the hearts of the people in his city?

But after thinking about it, he felt that City Lord Long would not discover anything. Although he did not know what the criteria for judging the public opinion were, if these people died according to the original trajectory, then the so-called public opinion would definitely no longer exist.

In other words, the public support he gained was entirely from the energy outside of Lord Long City.

There are no conflicts yet.

However, I don’t know if there will be conflicts in the future.

Chen Wangping was very emotional. He started selling cold-repelling cakes to stop the conspiracy of the Insect God Cult and to save the civilians in the city.

Unexpectedly, he accidentally obtained the key energy for a level 5 expert to advance to level 6.

Every sip and every bite is full of interest.

Chen Wangping turned to Qian Duoduo and said, "Go rent some large courtyards nearby and gather those who have eaten the cold-repelling cakes but haven't fully recovered. Take proper isolation measures and don't let all your efforts go to waste."

Qian Duoduo nodded and asked, "Renting some large courtyards is no problem, but how should they be charged? They probably don't have much money left."

Chen Wangping is now very concerned about these epidemic victims who can provide support. He patted Qian Duoduo on the shoulder and repeated what he had said to Fang Zhounan before. The method is also to use work-for-relief. The wealthy civilians will receive money, and those without money will temporarily owe them money. After they are cured, Qian Duoduo will organize them to find some money-making jobs to pay back the debts.

After hearing this, Qian Duoduo's eyes lit up, but he was also a little confused and asked, "Senior, what if the cured person runs away? Then we will lose out."

Chen Wangping said, "It doesn't matter. If someone runs away, let him run away. But make sure to keep a record. We will never use this person in Heping Pavilion again. They will regret it later."

Qian Duoduo nodded and said, "Okay, I'll do it right away. When they get better, I'll organize them to either mine or cut down trees. They can be used in any way."

After explaining the rest of the arrangements, Chen Wangping was about to go back when an old man ran out from the queue, holding a cold-repelling pancake in his hand and shouted at Chen Wangping, "Sir, please stay. I have a way to improve the taste of this pancake."

Chen Wangping was curious and asked the guard to let him in.

This person was none other than Old Liu. He walked over quickly, stifling a cough, broke open the cold-repelling pancake, and pinched off the egg powder on top with his fingers. He whispered, "Sir, my name is Old Liu, and I'm an experienced cook. I discovered that the key to these cold-repelling pancakes is the egg liquid. The rest of the grains are just for nutritional supplements."

Chen Wangping said: "Indeed, it seems that you eat very carefully."

Old Liu raised his head somewhat proudly, "Sir, I am an experienced cook. Let's talk about these pancakes. If we change the processing method of rice bran and coarse potatoes and add raw egg liquid to steam them together, the cost will not increase much, but the taste will be better. If you are interested, I can teach you how to cook here."

Chen Wangping nodded. He was also quite interested in this processing method. This cold-relieving cake was not a system recipe, and he was not very careful when he instructed how to make it. If there was a better way now, it would be fine to change it.

Qian Duoduo, who was standing next to him, immediately asked, "How much does this new method cost?"

Old Liu waved his hands and said, "No money, no money. Honestly, if it weren't for your cold-repelling cakes, I might have caught a cold and died by now. Why would I even ask you for money?"

Chen Wangping was about to say something when he found that he could vaguely see a milky white light spot the size of a grain of rice on Lao Liu's head, which was slowly jumping.

This light spot is exactly the same as the ones that had previously penetrated the body.

"What does this mean? Does it mean that I have won his support? His approval?"

Chen Wangping turned his head and found that among the victims who had bowed earlier, eight or nine out of ten had small spots of light on their heads. There were also one or two people in the queue who had them, and the rest were normal.

He didn't know what the use of this was for the time being, but for now, it should be certain that Lao Liu was not sent by anyone to cause trouble.

Then give it a try.

Chen Wangping instructed Qian Duoduo, "Take him and give it a try. If the result is good, use the new recipe for the next batch of cold-repelling cakes. Lao Liu, don't worry about teaching. If you don't want money, we will give you a healthy body."

Old Liu bowed and said, "Thank you very much, sir. Thank you very much, sir."

Qian Duoduo led Lao Liu to the kitchen in the backyard, and at the same time sent people out to recruit those victims of the epidemic who had eaten the cold-repelling cakes to live in the hospital, and everything around Heping Pavilion was in order.

Right now.

In the market in the west of the city, groups of people wearing clothes similar to insect skin and black hoods were collecting corpses. When they encountered plague victims who were still alive, they did not kill them but piled them up with the corpses, hoping that they would give birth to more cold worms before they died.

The corpses soon filled an entire car. They disguised themselves outside and then secretly transported them towards the Divine Weapon Pavilion.

In the Divine Weapon Pavilion, Lin Dao was happily drinking tea and said to Huo Chui, "Brother Huo Chui, today's operation went really smoothly. It was all thanks to you spreading the Frost Bugs. Once this new batch of Frost Bugs develops for a while, there will be even more meat fields in the city. I'm sure we'll be able to cultivate a Frost Bug King with far greater strength than usual."

Huo Hammer also said with a smile: "By then, maybe you and I can both receive another infusion of divine blood and break through to level five in one fell swoop."

Thinking of the scene after the breakthrough, the two looked at each other and laughed.

Suddenly, a spy knocked on the door and entered, reporting anxiously, "Oh no, my lords! Treasure Pavilion has opened a new shop in the south of the city called Peace Pavilion. They sell cold-repelling cakes that can suppress cold poison. They've bought all the meat that was previously sold at the East and West Markets."
