Chapter 69

There are no impervious walls in the world.

The matter of charity naturally reached Ma Youcai's ears.

this evening.

Ma Youcai took his son Ma Laibao to visit Ye Tian.

"Brother Ye Fu is really kind-hearted. I heard from Butler Zhang that you would go there to get food in person every day."

"And the food is pretty good."

When he said this, Ma Youcai was obviously unhappy.

Black Mountain Town is his territory.

Ye Tian, ​​an outsider, is here to give alms. How do others think he is so talented?

Ye Tian smiled and said, "I understand what Mr. Ma said."

"Tomorrow, I will ask my brother Aman to only deliver the food and not interfere with the distribution."

Ma Youcai smiled and laughed: "Brother Ye, that's not what I meant. In fact, I am also a kind-hearted person."

A chat.

Ma Youcai left proudly, not forgetting to say to his son:
"Ye Fu is really worth making friends with."

Malaibao sneered:
"I think this person is a fool. He is so squandering that even the common people have pity on him. Even if his family is rich, sooner or later he will lose all his wealth."

Ma Youcai didn't take it seriously: "There are some things that are beneficial to us. Let's see through them and don't say them out."

The next day.

Ye Tian ordered Aman.

"Just give the food to Popizhou, you don't have to distribute it yourself."

"...Yes." Aman nodded.

The day.

The white frost is vast.

lunch time.

Civilians lined up as usual to receive food.

However, what I got was gruel.

Eat the marrow to know the taste. Two days ago, there were chunks of meat in the thick rice!
Suddenly some civilians were dissatisfied:
"I clearly saw Mr. Ye's white cloth cart with food coming into the valley. Why, if Mr. Ye doesn't come today, you won't give us food, right?"

"Snapped!"

A whip fell.

The porridge suddenly fell from the hands of the dissatisfied civilians.

Popi Zhou came over calmly: "If you're not satisfied, you don't have to eat."

"Do you really think the food is for you?"

"Let me make it clear, I will swallow the meat and my subordinates will share it."

"Eat it if you like, or I'll feed it to the soul beasts on the mountain."

Hearing the word "soul beast", the civilians' originally angry expressions suddenly stopped.

What Popi Zhou feeds the soul beast is not porridge, but people!
A few more days passed.

A heavy frost came quietly to the earth.

So much so that Ye Tian had to wear thick mink fur.

"It's really cold."

Aman finished practicing the compound bow and walked over, trembling.

Ye Tian ordered: "It's time."

"Today's meal delivery truck, don't pull the rice in the car. The whole thing is stuffed with compound bows under the white cloth."

Aman suddenly became energetic: "Sir, could it be that today is the time for our uprising?"

"It's hot enough." Ye Tian said while looking at the sky.

"Okay." Aman nodded solemnly and went to the warehouse on the edge of Heishan Town to draw the compound bow.

Ye Tianze called Ma Youcai and said:

"Master Ma, your men are really good at doing things."

"Not only are wages being withheld, but food is also being withheld. How can the civilians have the strength to work? I don't think we will be able to dig out coal before winter comes."

"There is such a thing!"

Ma Youcai's face was full of anger, and he felt guilty in his heart.

Wages and food were deducted from him.

But it doesn't matter, everything can be blamed on his subordinates.

We need to hold on to this future big customer in front of us.

Ye Tiandao: "If Mr. Ma doesn't believe it, you can come with me to the valley to have a look."

Ma Youcai looked righteous: "Okay, I want to see who is so bold!"

The two climbed the hillside.

Came to the valley construction site.

When the civilians saw Ye Tian coming, they swarmed over.

"Master Ye makes the decision for us!"

"He stole our food during the Popi Week! He replaced our rice porridge with gruel."

"The wages we are still owed have not been paid yet!"

Ye Tiandao: "With Master Ma here, it's not my turn to make the decision."

"Slander, this is slander!"

Before Ma Youcai could speak, Rascal Zhou stepped forward and whipped the civilians in the front row a few times, then cupped his hands and said:
"Master, don't listen to these people's nonsense."

"I'm just saving some money for you, sir."

"Master, you need to save my money!"

Ma Youcai glared at the rogue Zhou and kicked him away. With Ye Tian around, Ma Youcai couldn't say anything, he just said:
"I will ask Butler Zhang to come over tomorrow and settle your wages."

"I quit!" With Ye Tian around, the civilians became more courageous.

"Me too!" The first person stood up, and immediately there were the second and third people.

Then, others joined in.

Five copper soul coins a day, and there is no old hen at home to lay eggs to make money!

Not to mention making money, we simply cannot make ends meet!

"Haha, they are all rich people."

"Then you don't want to rent the land from my Ma family anymore?"

"Since you have money, you owe me the rent money for Ma's family. You should pay it back now."

Ma Youcai squinted his eyes.

The angry arrogance of the civilians was immediately extinguished.Ye Tian acts as a peacemaker:

"Everyone, please work hard!"

"Master Ma just said that wages will be repaid tomorrow."

"Master Ma and I agreed at the beginning that each of us would receive fifty copper soul coins, which would provide us with meat and rice every meal."

"If you haven't eaten, I think Mr. Ma will also give you the money."

The civilians looked at each other.

Fifty copper soul coins!

If they work for so many days, it will be enough for their family's land to produce a year's harvest.

The civilians suddenly no longer felt tired.

Even his sick companions were forgotten.

Instead he cheered.

"That's great, thank you Master Ma, thank you Master Ye!"

"Now, we have food at home!"

"I can afford to pay for my son's illness!"

"All the hard work is worth it!"

Ma Youcai immediately poured cold water on him and said:

"I never said this!"

He looked at Ye Tian with a smile:
"You said fifty copper soul coins per person is true, but I also have to earn some, not to mention these thugs who guard the civilians, don't they also have to be paid? I can't just give you the money."

"As for how much I distribute to civilians, that's my business. Brother Ye Fu should not get involved in this matter."

Ye Tian smiled bitterly and shook his head, looking at the civilians:
"I'm sorry, everyone, it doesn't matter what I said."

The civilians were silent.

He just opened his eyes and looked at Ye Tian and Ma Youcai numbly.

"Go to your fucking work! It looks like wood, it's an eyesore!"

Rascal Zhou picked up the whip and started beating him randomly.

The numb civilians took action, picked up their hoes, spread out, and continued to chip away at the stone.

After working for a short while, it was already approaching noon.

Aman came to the valley with three carts covered with white cloth.

“Today’s meal actually arrived early!”

Rascal Zhou was surprised, and then he said to the civilians around him:

"You are so damn lucky today. Two gentlemen are here and you can have a good meal."

"It's time to eat, it's time to eat!" Popizhou shouted.

The civilians put down their work and raised their heads numbly.

When they saw the carriage, they all became happy again.

Tell each other: "With Mr. Ye here, we can have meat and fish dishes again today."

"That's great. I hope Mr. Ye will be here every day."

"He won't dare to defraud us if he's like this."

"Yes, it's a pity that Mr. Ye is not the mayor of our town."

not far away.

Ye Tian invited Ma Youcai and said:
"Mr. Ma, you're here, let's just eat here today."

Ma Youcai wanted to refuse, but then he glanced at Ye Tian and felt that this partner's reputation could not be refuted, so he immediately smiled and said: "I am living with the people."

Ma Youcai came to the carriage with his hands behind his back.

Aman, carrying a compound bow on his back, also walked towards Ye Tian.

"Brother, the food has been brought."

Aman deliberately emphasized the word "rice".

Ye Tian nodded slightly. He naturally knew that Aman was referring to bows and arrows.

Ma Youcai looked at Aman in confusion: "Brother Aman, why are you carrying a strange bow and arrow?"

Aman pointed at Popi Zhou and explained: "Brother Zhou said there are soul beasts around, and I'm afraid of encountering an accident."

Rascal Zhou mockingly said, "Brother Aman, I was here to prevent those untouchables from escaping and deceive them."

"I didn't expect that I would even lie to you."

"Really?" Aman pretended to smile and scratched his head.

"Can I see this strange bow and arrow?" Ma Youcai asked.

He is also very fond of weapons, especially bows and arrows.

He has never seen this bow and arrow before.

Ye Tian smiled and said: "Of course."

"Brother Aman, show me the bow and arrow to Master Ma."

"Okay." Aman took out the bow and arrow from his back and handed it to Ma Youcai.

Ma Youcai took it and pulled hard.

As a result, it pulled without much effort.

Ma Youcai smiled and said: "Such weak bows and arrows can only be used as toys for children. They have no lethality at all."

"That's wrong." Ye Tian explained: "This is a compound bow. Not only can it save energy, but it is also more powerful than ordinary bows and arrows."

"I'm here to demonstrate it to Master Ma." Ye Tian took the bow and arrow from Ma Youcai, and then took the arrow from Aman's hand.

"Then Brother Laoye, let me take control of you." Ma Youcai watched with interest.

With the arrow on the string, Ye Tian aimed towards the distance, but did not fire.

As if remembering something, he turned to Ma Youcai and said:

"Master Ma, I think these common people are having a hard time. I would like to lend you something, Master Ma, to give to these common people."

Ma Youcai smiled and said: "We two brothers are talking about whether to borrow or not. What do you want to borrow?"

Ma Youcai is a mature person, so naturally he will not be the first to agree.

Ye Tian was not angry, and said with a smile:
"Of course I'm lending you... my life!"

Ye Tian's hand holding the bow suddenly turned around and let go of the arrow.

Ma Youcai's expression changed drastically. He never expected that Ye Tian would kill him!
"Not good! Come on!"

He immediately turned around and wanted to run.

However, no matter how fast you run, it is not as fast as an arrow.

That arrow hit his head straight!
If the horse is talented, he will die!
