Thousands Of Times Of Wealth Returned: The Owner Of The City Has Never Been Stingy
6. Are These People Stupid?
Half an hour later, a cart of food and clothing was transported to the market center.
A new notice was posted on the notice board not far away.
A soldier read aloud:
"From now on, the people in the city, whoever is short of food and clothing, can go to the market center to get them on demand!"
"From now on, the movement restriction order will be lifted, and anyone who wants to leave the city will be allowed to go!"
As the reading was repeated, more and more people gathered around the notice board.
They were all pleasantly surprised after listening to the content.
, "The city lord's mansion has distributed food! That's great!"
"Is there anything to eat? Old man, I've been hungry for two days!"
"It seems that there are still clothes to get!"
"It's such a cold day, I can finally add some clothes!"
...
The good news was immediately spread by people.
In a short period of time, almost all the people in the city gathered in the center of the market.
Chu Chen was not surprised by such a sight.
Although a large number of people fled Lihua City these days, thousands of people fled yesterday.
But in fact, Lihua City is a city after all, and there is still a considerable population in the city.
Scar saw the dark crowd gathering more and more from the high platform, with a worried expression on his face,
"City Lord, with so many people coming to collect food, do they all have to distribute it?"
Chu Chen took it for granted: "Of course! Food is for people to eat!"
"But in this way, the military rations used to defend the city will be tight..."
Chu Chen secretly smiled inwardly.
He understood that Scar still had hope of holding the city.
But hope is hope, reality is reality.
Judging from the current situation, this city is 100% undefendable.
In this case, what is the use of keeping food?
It's better to distribute them to the common people so that the system can return some rewards.
As for the shortage of soldiers and rations?
That's even better!
Once the soldiers' rations are tight, the morale of the soldiers will fluctuate, and they can be disbanded.
In this way, no one would die in vain, and Chu Chen would not bear many life debts for nothing.
So he said: "If you do this, the military rations will indeed be tight."
"When the soldiers' supplies are tight, it will increase the difficulty for the soldiers to defend the city."
"I know this truth."
Scar's brows were slightly loose.
"But!" Chu Chen changed the subject, "No matter how difficult it is for the soldiers to defend the city, it is not as difficult as the ordinary people in front of them!"
"Look at them!"
"If you don't get help today, you may starve to death tomorrow!"
"Without them, even if the city survives, what's the point?"
Scar's pupils shrank slightly, and his heart shook.
This city lord actually ranks the common people in front of the city?
Doesn't he know that in this world, the lives of mortals are as worthless as weeds?
He looked into Chu Chen's eyes seriously.
After just a second, he came up with the answer.
No, he knows!
He is a businessman, how could he not know?
He knows better than anyone!
But he still did it!
This new city lord is simply too different from the previous one!
He sighed: "It would be great if the city owner was the city owner of this city a few years ago!"
Chu Chen smiled.
Early years?
In the early years, I was still on Earth 996!
...
The distribution of food and clothing is proceeding in an orderly manner.
To Chu Chen's surprise, these ordinary people lined up consciously even though they were all cold and hungry!
No one jumped in line, and no one made noise.
Not to mention that no one is greedy for a lot of food and clothing.
Everyone, as if they had made an agreement, only received what they needed.
Everyone who received the supplies did not forget to bow to Chu Chen on the high platform to express their gratitude.
Such a phenomenon made Chu Chen very embarrassed.
What a simple person!
Maybe I acted with impure motives and hit the right way, just happened to do a real good deed!
While feeling emotional, suddenly an old man rushed to the grain distribution office.
I saw him standing in front of the people, scolding angrily:
"You shameless bastards!"
"How did you manage to get these grains and clothes?"
"You are full and dressed warmly!"
"The soldiers guarding the city...cough cough! What about the soldiers guarding the city?!"
"What about the city lord?! You...cough cough!"
"Cough cough cough..."
Because he was too excited to speak, the old man couldn't stop coughing, and couldn't speak at all.
Seeing this, Chu Chen hurriedly got off the high platform, helped the old man up, and helped him out.
It took the old man a long time to recover.
He knelt down in fear and fear, bowed his head down, and tremblingly said:
"The grassroots dare to speak indiscriminately in front of the city lord, and ask the city lord to come down!"
Chu Chen shook his head slightly, and said helplessly:
"My city lord forgives you for your innocence, get up quickly!"
The old man still knelt down,
"Let's ask the city lord to come down! If the grassroots get up, they will say the same thing as before."
Chu Chen was speechless, so old, yet so stubborn?
At this time, some people were reluctant to look at the rice in their hands,
Immediately, he made up his mind and put the rice back.
"Master Bing, I won't take this rice."
Before the soldier could speak, someone put the clothes back again,
"Master Bing, I can't take this dress."
Behind, a group of people began to put back the things they had just received.
Chu Chen was stunned.
Are these people stupid?
Aren't you all hungry?
Aren't they all freezing enough?
It's all like this, return the things you got?
If you do this, how can you get double rewards from the system?
