This lord is not easy to mess with

Chapter 47 Patrol the Territory

Chapter 47 Patrol the Territory
"Jian, take my guests to the arranged room." Leylin said to the servants at the side as soon as he entered the mansion.

"Yes, sir."

Leylin turned his head to look at Nina, and said, "Nina, you must be tired too, go to the room to rest for a while."

"Well, Leylin will see you later." Nina said, and the three of them followed Ji An.

"I didn't expect the Leylin family to be so poor." Belluk sneered.

Leylin's mansion is not big, and it looks a bit dilapidated, it looks like it hasn't been repaired for a long time.And the decoration of the room is also very simple, not as good as some wealthy businessmen.

"Beluke, now we are guests at someone else's house, please respect yourself." Nina said dissatisfied.

"If you feel that living here is degrading your status, then please leave here." Daisy also said that Beruk's behavior really made Nina and Daisy feel a little bit bored.

"You..." Beruk's face was extremely ugly at this moment, he never thought that Nina and Daisy would stand by Leylin's side to speak for him.

However, the Beruk immediately smiled and said, "It was really rude just now, Nina, Daisy, I was wrong, can't I?"

Nina snorted and walked straight to her room, ignoring Beruk.

Daisy hesitated for a moment and said, "Beiluk, although I don't know why you have objections to Leylin, but Leylin saved our lives and entertained us warmly. I hope you can understand this."

After Daisy finished speaking, she also walked to her room, leaving only Belluk standing there with a gloomy face.

"Do I, Beruk, need him, Leylin, to save him? He's just showing his power with some magic scrolls in his hands." Beruk was furious.

In Belluk's eyes, Leylin was just an opportunist.Judging from Leylin's territory and mansion, it can't support Leylin's crazy waste of magic scrolls at all, and it won't take long for it to be revealed.

"Leylin doesn't have money and he likes to put on airs. Sometimes he will cry." Beruk couldn't help but sneered in his heart. It's not like he hasn't seen a dilapidated lord like Leylin before, and he didn't have anything in the end.

……

On the other side of the hall, Leylin, the old butler and Tann gathered together.

"Uncle Tann, how have the residents of Baishawan been doing these past few years?" Leylin asked.

When Leylin came back today, he saw the residents of Baishawan on the road, all of them had sallow complexions and seemed to be having a bad time.

"This..." Tann hesitated.

"Tan En, the young master is asking you something, why are you dawdling?" Seeing Tan En's appearance, the old butler immediately became dissatisfied.

"In the past few years, Baishawan has suffered from natural disasters, resulting in extremely low yields of crops planted, and many times they have to suffer from hunger," Tann said.

"Why didn't you say this in the letter before?" The old butler was also dissatisfied at this time, and they would be informed about such a big event.

"Father, it's not because the young master is going to study in the capital. I didn't say anything to prevent the young master from being distracted." Tann quickly explained.

"Then why didn't these disaster-stricken citizens be helped?" Leylin asked.

Tann smiled bitterly, and said: "Master, it's not that we don't want to, but because we don't have money in our hands. The taxation of the territory is already low, and the natural disasters that have been suffered in the past few years have been stretched, and it can barely maintain the operation of the territory. Your expenses in the capital."

Leylin was silent for a moment, and said, "How serious is the damage to the territory now?"

"More than half of the crops were lost last year, and now there is basically no food left in the territory. The current wheat and barley have just been planted, and it may be difficult to sustain the wheat until it matures." Tann said bitterly.

"You bastard, you're hiding such a big thing from us." The old butler was furious when he heard that, and slapped Tann on the head.

Tan grinned in pain, but dared not speak.

"What should the young master do now?" Tann said.

"Uncle Tann, please take me out for a stroll, I want to see how the people in my territory are doing?" Leylin said.

"Master, don't you rest?"

"In this situation, do you think I still have the mood to rest?"

At this moment, Leylin was in a serious mood. He never thought that the situation in Baisha Bay would be so bad.He had to take a good look at it, whether it was out of morality or his own considerations, he had to settle the matter.

If even the people in your own territory are starving to death, how can you realize your ambitions.

Soon Leylin and Tann left the lord's mansion and walked on the streets of the small town. The dilapidated roads looked extremely muddy at this moment, and the smell of excrement everywhere beside the road made Leylin have to cover his nose.

"The thing about defecating everywhere has to be changed, the roads have to be repaired, and the basic facilities have to be done well." Leylin thought to himself.

The only thing that catches the eye in the whole town is the houses built of white stone rocks. It seems that they are the houses repaired by Lei Lin's ancestors with the leaders. The houses here basically have a history of hundreds of years. They have experienced so many years of wind and rain. Still standing, I have to say that the quality of these houses is excellent.

Along the way, Leylin also asked many people in the territory that the food shortage was worse than he thought.

Most of the food eaten in the territory is bought from distant towns, and the price is also very expensive, which is double the usual food price.

In the past few years, natural disasters have severely damaged the southern coastal territories, and many territories are short of food.Those grain merchants raised their prices like sharks smelling blood, and after a few years, ordinary people couldn't bear it at all.

How many people sold their land to those landlords in order to survive, and some even sold themselves as slaves.

"Master, what should we do now? If this continues, there will probably be trouble." Tann said seriously.

Although Tann knew that there was a shortage of food in the territory, he did not expect it to be so lacking.

"Uncle Tann, how much food is there in the Lord's Mansion?" Leylin asked.

Tan En was taken aback, and said: "There is not much food in the lord's mansion. If we take it all out, it will be enough for everyone in Baishawan for more than ten days. If we save some, it will not exceed 20 days."

Leylin couldn't help but frowned when he heard that, the number was still far from enough.

"Starting tomorrow, the food will be brought out bit by bit to help the people in the area."

"If the young master takes out all of them, what shall we eat?" Tenn asked anxiously.

Leylin glanced at Tann and said calmly, "Of course I bought it!"

Tan En showed an expression uglier than crying after hearing this, and said, "Master, in order to repay the debt owed by your father, the entire lord's mansion has now been emptied."

"I want money!" Leylin looked at Tann and said.

"Come on, young master. How can there be money when the territory is so poor?" Tann said angrily.

Leylin was not angry either, he took out his gold card from the interspatial ring and handed it to Tann.

"This gold card contains 10 gold coins. Tomorrow you will go to Siro City to buy food."

"How much?" Tann's eyes widened, and he looked at Leylin in disbelief.

"Isn't it just 10 gold coins? What's the matter?" Leylin looked at Tann with interest, enjoying the unbelievable and surprised eyes very much.
