Chapter 67: This Is the Way to Bring Calamity

Translator: 549690339

The situation at a certain notice board in the north of the city was not a coincidence. Almost every notice board had such a scene.

About half of the people of Chen City chose to escape to the cities that distributed food for free.

This loss was completely acceptable to Yang Chen. After all, since ancient times, disaster relief had always been free. Some greedy aristocratic families would also choose to sell it, but the price would not be too high.

This was the first time he had seen this kind of relief work.

“Patriarch, half of the people have already escaped. Do we still continue?”In the meeting hall, Chen Xuan looked at Chen Yang.

This 5% of the people had run away just like that, which made Chen Xuan’s heart ache.

“It’s fine. Someone will definitely escape. No matter which city it is, there are people who want to reap without sowing. If we chase them away now, it will be beneficial to our development.”Yang Chen didn’t care at all.

Seeing that Chen Xuan was still a little worried, Chen Yang explained,”First Elder, this work as a form of relief is not only to eliminate the possibility of our Chen family being framed in the future.”

“After all the facilities are built, there will definitely be many people moving to Chen City. Once there were more people, it meant that the market was bigger. At that time, there would definitely be many merchants coming.”

“The arrival of the merchants will bring a lot of cultivation resources. At that time, it will definitely attract martial artists. In the long run, it would be difficult for Chen City to not prosper.”

“Compared to the prosperity in the future, First Elder, this loss is nothing to us.”

Hearing Chen Yang’s explanation, Chen Xuan felt a little more at ease.” In that case, I’ll continue to arrange this work-for-relief matter.””

On the streets of the Chen family.

The Chen family’s direct descendants and collateral relatives set up stalls and handled various positions.

Seeing the people of Chen City swarming over like a tide, even the Chen family’s direct descendants who were used to seeing big scenes panicked for a moment.

“Don’t push. Come one by one. Everyone has a position.”Second Elder Chen Meng, who was in charge of order, shouted so loudly that his throat was smoking.

“Grandpa, have some water.” Chen Meng’s four-year-old granddaughter, Chen Mingya, held Chen Meng’s hand and handed him a cup of herbal tea.

When Chen Meng saw this, his old face instantly frowned. He patted his granddaughter’s head in relief, then drank the tea in one gulp before continuing to shout at the top of his voice.

As an ordinary farmer in Chen City, Chen Ming was quite relaxed when he was farming.

However, the sudden turn of events had turned Chen Ming’s field into a wasteland. His mother was seriously ill and needed food to save her life.

That’s right, it was food that saved lives.

Because in Chen City, food was the hard currency. If one wanted to treat people and buy herbs, they had to use food.

Thinking of his bedridden mother, Chen Ming became even more anxious and quickly squeezed forward.

“Bastard! What are you doing!”

Chen Ming’s actions angered the burly man in front of him. The burly man glared at Chen Ming and raised his palm, ready to hit him.

However, after glancing at the Chen family members around him, the burly man let go of his hand.

When Chen Ming saw this, he mustered his courage and said,””Brother, my mother is seriously ill and needs food to save her life. Can you let me go first and work to get food so that I can treat my mother?”

“Humph! If you have something urgent to do, we don’t? If they were all like you, would there still be any order?”

“But what I said is true.” Chen Ming was on the verge of tears. At this moment, he hated himself deeply.

If he was a little stronger, this burly man would probably be able to let him rank at the front.

The quarrel between the two attracted the attention of many people. Even Chen Yu, who was in charge of this post, stopped what she was doing and walked in front of the two of them.

“What are you guys doing?”

Although Chen Yu was young and her voice was pleasant to hear, her words shocked the burly man and Chen Ming. They hurriedly knelt down and admitted their mistake.

“Get up, I’m not blaming you.”

Upon hearing Chen Yu’s words, the two of them felt relieved. Then, they got up and stood properly.

Chen Yu looked at Chen Ming.” What’s your name? I heard that your mother is seriously ill. Is that true?”

Hearing Chen Yu’s words, Chen Ming’s eyes lit up with hope. He hurriedly nodded.” My name is Chen Ming. Everything I said earlier is true. If Eighth Miss doesn’t believe me, you can send someone to check.”

“Chen Ming?” Chen Yu frowned.” Are you a descendant of the Chen family?”

When Chen Ming heard this, he smiled obsequiously.” I’m just a commoner. How would I dare to climb up the Chen family’s high branches? This surname is just a coincidence.””

When Chen Yu heard this, she nodded.” I understand. I heard your conversation earlier. This big man is right. Everyone has their own difficulties. It’s impossible to break the order because of a certain person.”

Hearing Chen Yu’s words, Chen Ming was a little anxious. He wanted to say something, but due to the difference in their status, he could only hold it in for the time being.

“But I’m a little busy here. Are you willing to help me register my name and assign me a position? Don’t worry, you’ll get the food.”

When Chen Ming heard this, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Chen Yu excitedly.” I’m willing…” I’m willing to help Eighth Miss register her name and allocate…Allocate…”

” Assignment of positions.”

“Yes, yes, yes, assign positions.”

“Since that’s the case, then come with me. I happen to be lacking people.”After saying that, Chen Yu turned around and left.

The others also looked at Chen Ming with envy. Although this was Chen Yu’s occasional kindness, it was undoubtedly a meteoric rise for them.

Even the burly man looked apologetic.” Brother, it was my fault just now. Can you spare me?”

When Chen Ming heard this, he shook his head repeatedly.” This brother, the Eighth Miss also said earlier that order must be observed.”

“Of course. What I did just now was wrong, but what about you, brother Tan Tan? As long as we wholeheartedly work for the Chen family, the Chen family will definitely not lose out on us.”

“Yes, yes, yes.” The burly man looked like he had been taught a lesson.

When Chen Ming saw this, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of pleasure. At the same time, he was determined to serve Eighth Miss for the rest of his life.

The Song family.

The news of the Chen family providing work relief had already reached the Song family. After hearing the news, the Song family head hurriedly gathered the elders in the meeting hall.

“Everyone, I believe everyone has heard about the Chen Clan.”

“Alright, I won’t say anything more. Everyone, tell me what we should do. Should we do the same thing as the Chen family or something else?”

As soon as Master Song finished speaking, the Song family’s first elder hurriedly said,”Patriarch, you must not learn from the Chen family. This is the way to bring disaster.”

“The path to disaster?” Master Song looked at First Elder.” First Elder, please elaborate.””

When the Great Elder heard this, he cleared his throat and continued,” Since ancient times, disaster relief has always been free. It’s enough to be despised by people if it’s bought with money.”

“And now, the Chen family is only given food because of the efforts of the people.. This was even more outrageous than those aristocratic families who used money to buy food!”
