Chapter 462 Still continuing?
At the same time, the situation far away in Peishan is changing quietly.
Several days passed, and the Wang family thought that the Wen family would be dragged down by the people who came to collect food frantically, and eventually they could only fall into the fate of being annexed by them.
However, it seems that this is not the case now...
On a whim today, Mr. Wang and his men planned to go to the Wen family to see the movement, hoping to see the Wen family's current down-and-out appearance. It would be even better if he could still see Wen Gonghu's miserable look, which was very disappointing and regretful!
He was very much looking forward to seeing this old friend had to surrender to his expression.
However, when he took a newly-acquired concubine to the Wen family in a carriage, he had just arrived halfway through the carriage, but the carriage suddenly stopped moving. He thought that he was a hungry victim who came up to ask for food like before, so he planned to wait for the other party to deal with it later.
It was just a bit surprising that the carriage did not move for a long time, which made him feel a little impatient, and he moistened his throat and shouted: "Afu, what's wrong? Why don't you go forward?"
Ah Fu is the driver who drove for him.
Soon, the coachman's respectful response came from the front of the carriage: "Master, it's not that the young man refuses to leave, but that the road ahead has been blocked."
"It's blocked?" Mr. Wang couldn't help but be stunned, "Who's blocked?"
"Go back to Master, it's the people who went to Wen's house to collect food!" The coachman hesitated, "Why don't Master, come and have a look..."
"People?"
Mr. Wang felt something was wrong in his heart, and he didn't care about being tempted by the charming concubine in his arms. He dragged his fat body and quickly lifted the curtain in front of him and looked out. The scene in front of him made him a little stunned.
"What's going on?"
I saw that the entire street leading to the Wen family gate was blocked, and there were ordinary people carrying a small cloth bag to collect food for disaster relief, and even people coming around the carriage.
However, unexpectedly, although there are so many people here that they are densely packed, the order is still orderly. Everyone is lined up very neatly, dividing into several teams to rank the streets.
And what puzzled Mr. Wang was that although they were obviously suffering from famine, they smiled and did not look like they had previously imagined that they were fighting for frantically because they were worried that there was not enough food for disaster relief.
"This... hasn't the Wen family used up yet?"
Mr. Wang raised his fingers tremblingly and pointed at the direction of the Wen family gate, stared at the sight of disbelief.
Based on the victims of this size he has seen now, if the Wen family still distributed the same food as before, even if the portion was slightly smaller, it would be an extremely terrifying amount for their Wang family, which was enough to emptiate the family within three days, and not even a grain of rice left...
Even if they added the disaster relief food they secretly took out for sale before, they should have been almost consumed these days!
But the Wen family had obviously only a few trucks of grain that Wen Bingyan bought from outside. How could he last for so long?
And judging from this, I seem to plan to continue to distribute it!
"This is impossible! It is impossible!"
This is completely different from what they expected!
It took a long time for Mr. Wang to come back to his senses, his face was angry, he waved his hand to the concubine's hand, and said angrily: "I provide so much food for the victims for free every day. Unless it is supported by the court, it is impossible to support it!"
In fact, even the court cannot give so much good food like the Wen family without asking for anything in return. All the old food sent to disaster relief were used.
He vaguely felt something was wrong here, but he couldn't tell it. He couldn't figure it out, so he rushed forward and reached out to stop a commoner who had just received the food, with a fierce look.
"You! Show me your bag!"
"You want to steal my food? Why should you steal my food from the Wen family for free?" The man was very alert and held the bag tightly in his arms and did not dare to let go. "And I see that you are greasy and dressed in luxury. You should be a wealthy family, so why can't you still lack food and drink?"
"I'll give you money!"
Mr. Wang was so angry that he choked, signaling the coachman behind him to give him money, and then forced his hand to snatch the bag of food from him.
I opened it and took a look. Sure enough, it was still the same as the bag of food I had received before. It was very honest. The white rice almost hurt Master Wang's eyes, and he quickly rubbed his eyes. After confirming that he was not wrong, he gasped and put down the bag and seemed to calm down his mood.
As for the person who was robbed of the food, he didn't pursue the money since he got the money. He just felt that the guy in front of him was really a weird person. He hid the money in his arms and quickly escaped.
"What is the story of this Wen family?" Mr. Wang, who was stunned, really couldn't figure it out. Isn't it good to use so much food to make money in business? Why do you have to do such a thankless stupid thing?
And where did they get so much new food? It's incredible!
At this moment, a servant suddenly ran over panting and whispered to him: "Master, an immortal master just came to the door of the mansion, saying that he could help us solve the murderer who steals food!"
"Immortal Master?" Mr. Wang was stunned and decided to go back to the mansion first. Since the Wen family's affairs cannot be solved for the time being, let it go for the time being. It seems that the key is to deal with your own affairs.
He sat back on the carriage and ordered the coachman to turn around and rush back to the mansion, hoping to meet the so-called immortal master.
After returning to the mansion, under the guidance of his servant, he immediately saw the immortal master who came to the door. His face felt a little familiar. After recalling it for a moment, he remembered it: "Are you... not that immortal master from some kind of sect?"
"Master Wang, it is the invincible Great Immortal Sect of Jiutian Xuanzun!" The immortal master smiled slightly, holding a handful of dust in his hand, and paired it with the plain white robe, he did look like a kind of master in the world.
"Nine...Nine Heavens Xuanzun...I don't care what kind of sect you are," Mr. Wang was depressed, so he naturally didn't have the mood to greet the other party. He just shook his hands and sat back on the seat, picked up a cup of warm tea handed over by the maid next to him and drank it all, and then smacked his lips and said, "The ugly words are first mentioned first. You guys are the methods, master, I know very well, and you don't want to use those methods to fool the people to fool me."
