Chapter 93: Troops from Xuzhou

Hearing this, Xun Yu nodded, not doubting Guo Jia's words at all.

But he could see that it was Guo Jia and Yuan Shao.

Probably totally disappointed.

It was not just Guo Jia who was disappointed.

He was also disappointed.

"Then Fengxiao should take a rest for a while and live in seclusion to farm and study!"

After saying goodbye to each other, Guo Jia also went back home with a few servants.

Watching Guo Jia leave, Xun Yu began to think about where to go next.

------

And at the same time.

Outside Guangling City on the other side.

"Is this Guangling City?!"

Coming all the way from Xuzhou, Chen Deng couldn't help but frown as he looked at Guangling City in front of him.

In the cold winter, there were still people outside Guangling City widening the river and repairing the city walls.

"It seems that under Ye Chen's rule, he is not as kind to the people as the rumors say."

Seeing such hard work in such weather, even Chen Deng couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for the people of Guangling County.

Then he slowly approached and asked a civilian who was widening the river.

"Excuse me, how much does it cost per day to widen the river?"

In Chen Deng's opinion, Ye Chen should give some money to widen the river channel in the cold winter.

But the next moment, the answer from Minfu stunned him.

"How much? We don't have any money, it's all for nothing!!"

"What??"

“No money??”

Chen Deng was shocked to hear that there was not a penny left.

Working so hard but getting no money at all, is this considered forced labor?
Only after some questioning did I find out that these people were all villagers from the surrounding areas of Guangling City.

"Damn it, it's absolutely abominable. The people under his command work so hard, and this is how Ye Chen treats them?"

Hearing this, Chen Deng couldn't help but curse, thinking that he had misjudged the person.

A group of villagers, braving the cold, widened the river and repaired the city wall, but they didn't get a dime? ?

This is something a lord who vows to fight for the world can do? ?

This is not labor!
"Hey, what's wrong with you? I was answering your question properly, but you insulted Lord Ye?!"

Hearing Chen Deng cursing at Ye Chen, the laborers nearby also became angry.

The person in front of me actually called Master Ye abominable! !

How could he bear this?
"Fellow villagers, this person insulted Lord Lin!!"

With a loud shout, the civilians all around were attracted and looked over with angry eyes.

"Who, who is insulting Lord Ye!"

"Lord Ye is such a good person, we must not allow others to insult him!!"

“That’s right, not only did he insult you, but he also said something today that he would teach Master Ye a lesson!!”

"Hey, this is outrageous, who is so bold as to do this?"

"Who is it? Is it this scholar?"

All of a sudden, a group of civilians surrounded him, ready to tear Chen Deng to pieces.

This left Chen Deng completely confused.

"No, fellow villagers, you helped widen the river, but Ye Chen didn't give you a penny, and you still speak for him?"

At this moment, Chen Deng was really confused.

These people are crazy!
They work for free and yet they still protect each other? ?
"Boy, you look like an outsider, right?!"

An old man who looked to be in his fifties said something to Chen Deng at this moment and then began to explain.

"Although Lord Ye didn't give us any money, we helped widen the river and we have three meals a day."

As the old man spoke, everyone around him nodded.

Although Ye Chen did not give them any money, he provided them with three meals a day.

Hearing this answer, Chen Deng couldn't help but frown.

Just three meals a day, is it worth it? ?
“It’s time for dinner!”

At this moment, accompanied by shouts and the sound of gongs.

Several large vats were carried over and placed in front of everyone.

When they heard that it was time for dinner, all the laborers rushed over quickly, fearing that the food would be gone if they were too late.

Chen Deng was puzzled and couldn't help but move forward.

The next moment, after seeing the food in the tank, he was stunned.

"Come on, come on, each of you has a bowl of corn porridge, a white flour bun, an egg, and a braised chicken leg!"

"Don't grab all of them!"

The soldiers who were having their meal shouted.

Chen Deng saw the food that the laborer was talking about.

I gasped on the spot.

"hiss!!"

The hot thick porridge and the white flour buns.

And eggs and braised chicken legs are actually their meals???
The Chen family, a prominent family from Xuzhou, only eats two eggs a day.

What this group of people eat is almost as much as what they eat at home.

They are a noble family!
crooked day.

This is really going backwards as time goes by.

"Okay, stop hiding it. The adults see how hard you've worked. When you leave today, each of you can take an egg home!"

The next moment, the soldier shouted, and Chen Deng's expression suddenly became dull.

All right.

The food for this group of people now is better than that of the Chen family.

For ordinary people, two eggs and a braised chicken drumstick a day, this is simply a fantasy!!
No wonder this group of people are willing to do this job even without any pay!
A bowl of hot porridge, a white flour bun, an egg, and a braised chicken leg.

This food.

Ordinary people may not be able to buy it even if they have money.

"Master, they are eating really good food!!"

The servant beside him was drooling.

The food they eat is much better than that of the Chen family's servants.

"Okay, let's go!"

After saying this, Chen Deng finally understood.

Why do these people in Guangling County respect Ye Chen so much?

Such food treatment.

No matter who it is, they must swear to protect Ye Chen until death!

At this moment, Chen Deng looked at Guangling City in front of him with more and more anticipation.

There are such people.

It would be easy for Ye Chen to occupy Xuzhou!
Guangling City, County Magistrate's Office.

"My Lord, we are now arranging for the people to reclaim the wasteland. This is already underway. Will we continue to plant the improved seeds?"

At this moment, Cheng Yu really wanted to know where his lord got these rice seeds.
The yield per mu is really amazing.

“Keep planting and increase your efforts!”

Ye Chen, who was sitting above, nodded firmly at this moment.

He wants to plant these rice seeds all over Guangling County.

In this way, the goal of ensuring that everyone has enough food can be achieved.

"My lord, quick report, there is movement of troops in Xuzhou!"

Hear the words.

Ye Chen frowned.

What does it mean.

Could it be that Tao Qian took the initiative to attack him without him making a move? ?

what is happening?
Isn’t it said that Tao Qian is old and only wants to maintain the status quo?

No ambition at all?
Tao Qian suddenly sent troops to attack him.

Is there something fishy going on?
After thinking for a long time, Ye Chen still couldn't figure it out.

Then he took the battle report and read it carefully!
