Such a sum of supplies is absolutely astonishing. This is not a batch, but delivered directly to everyone, every common person. If you add this up, it is not a small amount. You know, one pound of mixed spirit rice can last an ordinary person for a day even if it is eaten openly. No matter how big the appetite is, fifty pounds of mixed spirit rice can last for more than a month. If you save some food and boil it into rice porridge, you can survive even two or three months, not to mention a month.
There are also five kilograms of ferocious beast meat, which can be eaten to strengthen the body. If you eat it, it will undoubtedly be a great supplement. Such ferocious beast meat is very valuable, and only the middle and high-level people in the village can eat it.
There is also a piece of cloth. This piece of cloth must be quite big. It should be able to be cut into a decent new piece of clothing.
Food, clothing, housing and transportation are inseparable.
This includes food and clothing.
With such a large amount of necessary supplies, if Baiyang Village came here on its own, the inventory in Baiyang Village could be wiped out. It may not even be enough. What an amazing handiwork. This is especially true when it is taken out in such troubled times.
A place suitable for planting various kinds of rice grains. Currently, only Xuanhuang Town is capable of large-scale planting. In other villages, even after stabilization, only a small part is planted, and they still need to be guarded at all times to prevent destruction. It can only be grown in small batches, and it is not even enough to feed oneself. It is impossible to satisfy everyone. This still needs to be planted in the village.
Once planted outside, it will 100% be destroyed before harvesting.
Only Xuanhuang Town can produce food in large quantities and continuously.
This kind of benefit that fell from the sky made Bai Hai and Bai Lang look happy and shocked.
"The head of Baiyang Village, Bai Yang, would like to thank the benevolent hands of the leader of Yi Town. I, Baiyang Village, will naturally remember this kind act. Open the city gate and let all the people go to receive their share of supplies." At this moment, I only saw, A middle-aged man wearing a white robe walked up to the city wall. This man had a jade-like complexion and exuded an elegant demeanor. There was an aura of majesty about him.
This is the momentum that comes naturally after being in power often.
Majesty can only be cultivated and cannot be faked.
Only when one has great power and controls the land and water can one develop magnanimity.
"It turns out to be fellow Taoist Baiyang."
Wu Yong smiled and nodded and said.
After some pleasantries and no other actions, the city gate was opened.
People from Baiyang Village walked out of the city gate one after another, with a look of hope and expectation on their faces.
It can be seen that there is a pale color on the faces of these people. It cannot be said that they are sallow and thin, but it can also be seen that they usually don't eat much.
"Come, come, come, come here to register and receive supplies,"
Immediately, someone started to greet them, and it was people from the Wanbao Palace who followed. Deliver supplies.
Use space bags and storage bags to hold them. Although each space bag does not have a lot of space, the number is quite large. In the past, Yi Tianxing harvested hundreds or even thousands of storage bags and dimensional bags in the world's first martial arts conference.
Added together, the amount of supplies that can be carried at one time can be said to be quite astonishing.
Someone took out the storage bag directly, and after opening it, a large amount of supplies appeared in front of them.
Bags of miscellaneous rice, and large quantities of fresh ferocious beast meat. There are also batches of cloth.
The first commoner quickly stepped forward.
"My name is Liu Sangou. Can I really receive food and cloth here?" A man stepped forward and asked in a cautious manner.
"Okay, register here, and then you can receive the supplies." Wu Yong said with a smile.
"OK."
Liu Sangou heard this and nodded quickly in agreement.
Following the procedure, after registering, a piece of supplies was delivered to him without any surprise, including a small bag of miscellaneous rice, a piece of fresh ferocious beast meat, and a piece of fabric that was enough to be cut into a piece of clothing. When he received these supplies, he felt as if he was dreaming.
It feels a little unreal.
But holding the rice, Bu Bo's hand was steady and he didn't want to let go at all.
People who have never been hungry will not understand this.
"I can really receive supplies, including food and ferocious beast meat. The head of Xuanhuang Town is really a great man."
"Yeah, I've heard it a long time ago. Within a radius of ten thousand miles, Xuanhuang Town is the best gathering place for human beings. I don't know how many people yearn for it. According to legend, everyone in the town can practice. There is also a Sutra Collection Pavilion where anyone can enter and choose martial arts and skills to become a monk. I don’t know how many people are envious of it.”
"Great, my clothes should have been changed a long time ago. They are almost in tatters. But now let alone clothes, I can't even make cloth. I can make a new dress this time. Even if I die, It’s pretty respectable.”
"Xuanhuang Town has really done a good deed. It would be great if we could also join Xuanhuang Town. In that way, we can all become monks, everyone is strong, and we can go out to fight with those ferocious beasts. We don't have to be like now, we can only Watching helplessly."
One by one, people continued to follow the procedures and receive supplies.
While receiving the supplies, a look of joy appeared on his face.
At this moment, on the city wall, Bai Yang and others had disappeared. Has returned to the village chief's mansion.
This is also the residence of the Bai family. It's called Baifu.
In the White Mansion, in the meeting hall.
Bai Yang sat in the first place. Below are Bai Hai, Bai Lang, and a petite but elegant-looking girl.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall was obviously a bit solemn.
"Second brother, Lang'er, you made a miscalculation this time. When the Xuanhuang Town party proposed to donate supplies before, you should have accepted them, or even tried your best to get the supplies in your hands first. No matter what, you should not let them personally Start distributing supplies. If this happens, our people in Baiyang Village will probably be dispersed, and it will be difficult to lead this team in the future.”
Bai Yang said with a solemn expression.
"When I heard that Xuanhuang Town was willing to give out such a large amount of supplies, I didn't think too much about it. I just thought about getting a large amount of supplies. My head was a little blurry and I couldn't even change my mind." Bai Hai was full of bitterness. said.
"Dad, wouldn't it be great to get such a large amount of supplies?"
Bai Xiaoyu said with a hint of surprise.
"It is naturally a good thing to have a large amount of supplies in our hands. It is also a good thing for the entire Baiyang Village. It can greatly alleviate various needs in the village. Even for a month, we do not need to be responsible for their food. A month In this way, our village can accumulate a lot of heritage and complete more buildings, but our Baiyang Village has lost most of its people.”
Bai Yang said with a wry smile.
There is a fundamental difference in who distributes these supplies. If the gift is given to Baiyang Village, falls into the hands of Bai Yang, and is distributed by the Bai family, there is no doubt that most of this reputation will also fall on the Bai family. But now it is distributed directly by Xuanhuang Town. This reputation, and even the people's hearts, have fallen on Xuanhuang Town. With people's hearts dispersed, it will naturally be difficult to lead this team.
Everyone's heart is towards Xuanhuang Town, where can Baiyang Village be located
To put it bluntly, this is buying people's hearts.
Especially in troubled times, nothing can win people's hearts more than food. In particular, today's people are extremely impetuous, and a slight disturbance may cause turmoil. If the people's support turns against them, it will be difficult for that force to maintain itself.
"Then we can't stop it."
Bai Xiaoyu hesitated and spoke.
"It can't be stopped. Xuanhuang Town has already announced the distribution of supplies to the entire Baiyang Village. Everyone has heard it clearly. It's okay to let them get the supplies now. If they are directly stopped, it will be equivalent to robbing the people in the village. Food. This will undoubtedly make the people in the village hostile to our Bai family. If it breaks out in the future, it will be a big mess."
Bai Yang shook his head and said.
In fact, if possible, he would never let Xuanhuang Town distribute supplies directly to the people in the village. This is simply giving up your foundation to someone else. He watched helplessly as the other party swung his hoe and dug into the corners of the wall. It can't be stopped yet.
There is a record in ancient unofficial history.
That was during the Ming Dynasty. Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang and the richest man in the world, Shen Wansan, were close friends. They were in the early days of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, made his capital Jinling. He summoned Shen Wansan and ordered him to offer thousands of platinum ingots and a hundred catties of gold. When the outer city of Nanjing was being built, the treasury was in short supply. Shen Wansan relied on his wealth and expressed his willingness to cooperate with him. The imperial court was built in half, and the construction started at the same time. As a result, Shen Wansan completed the project before the emperor, which made Emperor Zhu unhappy. Shen Wansan still didn't know what to do, so he applied for a reward of one tael of silver for each soldier in the country, totaling nearly one million taels.
Eventually it led to family destruction and death.
Why
It's very simple, Shen Wansan crossed the line.
Building city walls is a matter for the court, and rewarding the army is a favor method of the emperor. It is the right of the emperor. A businessman dares to give private rewards. What is he trying to do? Treat the army as belonging to his Shen family.
Only an emperor is qualified to win people's hearts.
You, a businessman, want to win people's hearts. What do you want to do? Rebellion
Under such circumstances, if Shen Wansan didn't die, who would
Not to mention Zhu Yuanzhang, no emperor could remain indifferent. This was tampering with the emperor's power. If he didn't die and started this, the whole world would not be in chaos.
What Xuanhuang Town is doing now is the same as Shen Wansan's actions back then, but the results are completely opposite.
Why, it’s not because of strength. Only with strength can you be qualified to do this.
This is a clear conspiracy. It's on the surface. Even if you know it, you can't stop it. This is the general trend.
Even though he knew that Xuanhuang Town was trying to win people's hearts, he didn't dare to make any move. Thousands of soldiers were standing outside, and the people in the village were even more delighted and wanted to stop them, but how could they possibly do so.
