Surviving the famine: I made my fortune by helping others

Not as much as she bought before.

I just don’t know whether the money contributed by the villagers is not enough or the price of grain has risen too much.

"Let's get out of the city first, and we'll figure it out when we get to the bridge."

Everyone nodded silently and led their horses to the city gate.

Not many people left the city, and the city gate was empty, but through the gaps in the gate, one could see a completely different world outside.

The noisy crowd and the huge mass of heads seemed as if they were about to rush in at the next moment.

Ye Chuyi suddenly thought of something, and when he looked at the food again, his face looked heavy.

"If we take the food out like this, something bad might happen."

When they came in, the refugees did not rush forward recklessly because they had nothing obviously worth gaining, but it was different now.

Once the food leaves the city, it will be like cold water dropped into a frying pan. I'm afraid many people will fight for their lives.

"What should we do? These are our lives."

Obviously, Wang Yongshou also thought of the key.

If they were really robbed by the refugees, they would be lucky enough to survive, but if they were unlucky, they would probably not be able to escape.

"But we can't stay at home forever."

Not to mention that they have no money to live in the county town, even the villagers outside the city would probably have no way to survive if they were abandoned like this.

"I'll go out and look for someone to meet us at the city gate. If there are a lot of people, they probably won't dare to act rashly."

Zhao Wenzhu was silent for a while, then told the solution in his mind.

In fact, there is a better way. Just put all these things into the space and you don’t have to worry about anything.

But Ye Chuyi didn't want to reveal more.

Although those who were familiar with her knew it, there were four to five hundred people in the entire team, and she couldn't guarantee that she could defend against every one of them.

"Okay, be safe."

Zhao Wenzhu did not lead the horse, and he quickly blended into the crowd and disappeared.

The refugees separated by a gate stared numbly at the people inside the city gate, like soulless walking corpses.

"There is food."

Someone in the crowd shouted.

The refugees all turned their eyes in unison, but when they saw the distance, they quickly looked away again.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that quite a few people are still ready to make a move.

"Brother, are they the ones who came into the city yesterday?"

"They are the only ones leading the horses. Three men with an old man and a girl. They must be them."

At the city gate, more than a dozen pairs of eyes stared at Ye Chuyi and the others sinisterly.

"Boss, do you want to rob?"

The man called the boss slapped his younger brother in anger, "Idiot, didn't you see they were inside the city gate?"

"So we're just going to let them go?" They haven't taken revenge for yesterday yet.

"I say you are stupid, but you are really not smart. From the look of them, we know they are going to leave the city. Once they leave the city, they will leave us alone."

[Ding——, a helping task was detected, and a random task was released.

Please try your best to stop the riots by the refugees and do your best to rescue the real refugees.

After the task is completed, the progress of the task will be scored and rewards will be issued. ]

"Isn't the previous mission still unfinished?"

It's ridiculous that she has the ability to stop the refugees from rioting.

[The tasks do not conflict, the previous task still exists.]

Baizai searched carefully several times, [Hey, the daily tasks seem to be gone.]

"Daily tasks?" Ye Chuyi recalled.

It seemed like a collection quest, and they even took her horse, but it was gone.

But come to think of it, I was so focused on traveling yesterday that I didn't seem to have completed the collection mission.

It's a useless task, so it's better to have it gone. But I don't know how to complete this task now. It doesn't seem to mention what the penalty is. Does it mean I don't have to do it?

As soon as Ye Chuyi finished thinking, he felt a weak electric current without any prompt.

A strong warning.

Go system!

"Miss Ye, have you finished shopping?"

The yamen runner they met yesterday walked up to them with a slightly flattering attitude.

Looking at him, Ye Chuyi instantly had an idea.

Isn't it the job of these yamen runners to stop the riot? This is a good opportunity to give them something to do.

[Host, you are really smart. These yamen runners have weapons, so they will definitely be able to stop them quickly.]

"of course."

Looking at the annoying yamen runner from yesterday, Ye Chu suddenly felt that they had become much closer.

"Um, Lao Li, come here."

"Call me?" The head of the yamen runner pointed at himself in confusion, "My surname is not Li, but Liu."

"Don't worry about your last name, just come here."

"Miss Ye, what instructions do you have?" Boss Liu asked cautiously.

"Do you want to make a contribution?" Ye Chuyi smiled.

Boss Liu was stunned for a moment, and then his face quickly showed surprise. "Are you serious, Miss Ye?"

Who doesn’t want to make a contribution?

Well, now we can call them Miss instead of Girl, which has improved the level.

"When have I ever lied to you? Come here and let me tell you."

Ye Chuyi acted like an elder brother.

Du Jiayi was stunned watching from the side, and quietly poked Wang Chengde and asked, "Miss, are you familiar with this yamen runner?"

"No. When we entered the city yesterday, didn't this bailiff give us a hard time for our horses?"

Wang Chengde shook his head firmly.

"I'm not familiar with you. Why do you act like we are good friends?" Du Jiayi curled his lips and took two steps forward to listen quietly.

"Have you seen the refugees outside the city? Do you notice anything different?"

Ye Chuyi whispered to Boss Liu seriously.

Boss Liu looked again and again, thought again and again, and asked hesitantly, "Are there more refugees today?"

"Why are you so stupid?" Ye Chuyi patted him unhappily, "Did you see those sneaky people?"

"Yeah, I saw it." Liu Laoda nodded in confusion. Aren't there people like this every day? It doesn't seem to be anything unusual.

"No wonder you're just a gatekeeper. Don't you realize that those people have made great contributions?"

After being hit again, Boss Liu was even more confused. How could it be a credit? Looking after these refugees was obviously the hardest job.

Unable to figure it out, Liu Lao Da decided to ask, "Miss, can you explain it more clearly?"

Ye Chuyi looked at him and sighed, "A rotten tree cannot be carved. I will teach you this once. Please listen carefully."

"Little one must listen carefully."

"Do you think what the lady said is true?" Du Jiayi continued to poke Wang Chengde.

"It should be true. Miss never lies." Wang Chengde trusted blindly.

Boss Liu seemed to be thinking about something.

He stared at the refugees outside the city for a long time but couldn't figure out why Miss Ye was so sure that those people would riot?

Don't those people look normal?

Du Jiayi approached him in a familiar manner and said, "Brother, if you can't figure it out, forget it. Anyway, what the young lady said is right. There will be nothing wrong if you follow what she says."

"That makes sense, brother. Thank you!"
