Cheng Si looked at these people from behind. They were all pitiful people. They had eaten their last meal and didn’t know where their next meal would come from.

"Boss, we've already moved all the rice that Madam Lin bought. Is there anything else we need to do?"

Cheng Si sighed. One was the man who had absolute power over Yunzhou City, and the other was his breadwinner.

Since Cheng Si chose to help Lin Ting, he had no choice but to tear off that hand.

"Find someone to keep an eye on those warehouses, increase the manpower, and don't let even a fly in there."

The man clasped his fists and said, "Yes! Boss."

Looking at Lin Ting's busy figure, but Shen Qingzhou beside her was gone, Cheng Si raised an eyebrow and walked over to help Lin Ting divide the porridge.

"Mrs. Lin, I'm here to help you too."

"Okay!" Lin Ting handed a big spoon to Cheng Si so that they could divide it faster if they shared it.

While the food was being distributed, the other two stoves continued to cook to prevent the people behind from not getting enough.

In Yunzhou City, people who were also in trouble also rushed over after hearing the news.

The same sound of wind, falling in the city lord's backyard, had different emotions.

A priceless white porcelain tea set was thrown heavily onto the green bricks of the floor and shattered into fine sand.

"What did you say? Someone actually dared to selfishly distribute porridge in my Yunzhou City. Who is this desperate lunatic?"

The servant who came to report was trembling with fear: "Young City Lord, I heard that it was a foreigner who passed by Yunzhou City and saw the pity of the people outside the city, so..."

Nie Pengyun was so angry that he could have killed all the people outside the city by just holding out for a while, but now a fake good man came and gave them porridge.

"You, send someone to find out who the other party is, how many people there are, where the rice they're giving out comes from, and see if anyone in Yunzhou City is helping them."

Nie Pengyun is Nie Tian's only son, and will inherit the position of the city lord of Yunzhou City in the future. Yunzhou City has just been incorporated into the Dongxia Kingdom for ten years. Because of the merits of his ancestors, the court has always retained the original management method.

As long as they pay taxes every year, this place will belong to their Nie family. This is a privilege.

"I've already sent people to inquire. Yunzhou City belongs to the Nie family. If they dare not consult the Nie family, the Young City Lord will not let them go."

Nie Pengyun glared at the servant, turned around and kicked him.

"You bastard, what do you know? How dare you teach me how to do things?"

Nie Pengyun was in a bad mood and was full of anger. Every day those people outside the city lived was a day more of a threat to their Nie family.

"Young City Lord, please spare my life. I was wrong. I won't do it again. Please spare me..."

Most of them had already starved to death. If the person who gave them porridge had continued to help them, they would have been able to survive until next spring. When wild vegetables grew, these people could have stubbornly survived again.

"If you can't find out who's giving out soup, forget about getting your legs back."

The day when the ice and snow had not yet melted frightened the servant so much that he broke out in a sweat.

Soon, another servant came running over to report.

"Young City Lord, I've found out. The person distributing the porridge, everyone calls her Madam Lin. She was originally going to the capital, but the official road was blocked by snow, so she came to Yunzhou City to stay."

When the servant saw his companion being punished by Nie Pengyun, he did not dare to hide anything and told everything he had learned to the young city lord with an unpredictable temper.

"anything else?"

“As for the porridge she gave out, the rice was bought in Yunzhou City, but the buyer was not Madam Lin herself, but Cheng Si, the owner of Huayan in Yunlai Street!

All the rice in the rice shops in Yunzhou City has been cleared out by Cheng Si. If this rice is used to distribute porridge, it can easily feed those people outside the city for two months."

When he heard the name, Nie Pengyun frowned. This Cheng Si actually joined forces with an outsider.

Begging is not allowed in Yunzhou City. This is the apparent meaning to the common people, but anyone who knows a little about Nie Tian knows that it actually means that food is not allowed to be given to those people.

Their Yunzhou City does not need beggars. Yunzhou City needs to develop well and not have too many refugees.

In this way, the Zhangzhou prefect can see it and Nie Tian can continue to be the city lord. Otherwise, the government will intervene and the Nie family will lose their status.

"Cheng Si, you are so brave to help an outsider to ruin the good deeds of our City Lord's Mansion."

Nie Pengyun was so angry that he stepped forward, grabbed the collar of the servant who came to deliver the message, and roared with gritted teeth.

"That Madam Lin, do you know who she is? Where is she from? What is her relationship with Cheng Si? Tell me quickly?"

The servant's eyes were filled with fear, and his speech became incoherent: "Reporting to the young city lord, I... I didn't... I didn't find out..."

These words completely ignited Nie Pengyun. He couldn't even handle such a small matter in the city. Now that his father was back, how was he going to explain it to his father?

"Useless trash, what do I need you for? Trash... trash..."

The two servants fell to the ground with their heads in their hands, allowing Nie Pengyun to punch and kick them.

One of them was beaten black and blue, and then he thought of a clever idea: "Young City Lord, please spare my life. I have found a way to deal with that Madam Lin. I have found a way."

He had a square face, and the way he gritted his teeth made it even squarer, but when he heard the servant say he had thought of a solution, his expression relaxed a little.

"Say it!"

The servant endured the pain and changed from lying to kneeling: "Young City Lord, didn't we find out that the rice and flour purchased by Cheng Si and that lady Lin are enough to feed those people outside the city for two months?

But there are only a few people outside the city. That's food. If more people come and they eat more, she won't have enough to eat for two months."

Nie Pengyun's eyes lit up. Why didn't he think of it? This was really a good idea.

How rich could a woman be? Besides, she was just passing through Yunzhou City. If she dared to go against their City Lord's Mansion, then Nie Pengyun would let her know the consequences.

"By the way, go tell my mother that anyone who dares to touch Hua Yan in Yunzhou City will be going against our City Lord's Mansion and will no longer be able to stay in Yunzhou City."

"Yes! I'll go right away."

......

After distributing porridge at noon, Lin Ting asked Cheng Si where he could find someone to shovel the snow, but his answer was that he had to ask City Lord Nie about matters on the official road.

Seeing the people of Yunzhou City become like this, Lin Ting intuitively felt that the city lord was not easy to talk to, so she directly asked Shen Qingzhou to go to Zhangzhou.

As long as we get the prefect's warrant and Lin Ting's money, the snow can be shoveled away in two days at most.

In the evening, Lin Ting and Wan Weiran were still organizing the porridge distribution, but it seemed that more and more people came to get the porridge at night.

"Master Lin, why are there so many people here? It feels like there are half as many as this morning."

Lin Ting also noticed that some of the people were not dressed in rags and had fair skin, and did not look like people in trouble at all.
