Long live the best

"My lord, this [-]% grain is a trivial matter for you, but it is a ration for us to survive!"

"Please, please do me a favor, can you make up the two percent..."

"..."

The sharecroppers begged, almost on their knees.

The chaotic ancestral hall seemed extremely depressing.

A trace of displeasure and contempt flashed across Zhang Youde's eyes, and he cursed in a low voice, "I don't know what's good or bad about cheap things, and I want to pay more, and I don't even look at how much I am.

But next second.

He sighed again.

"Fathers and folks, alas...!"

"The original plan was to give you [-]% more. The big bosses were worried when they saw that everyone's harvest was not good due to the natural disaster last year."

"But... ugh!"

He was downcast, as if he was very concerned about the common people, and had a secret that he couldn't tell.

Someone asked: "But what? Master Zhang, tell me."

Zhang Youde said sadly: "But you also know that the imperial court killed the leaders of the Li and Tang families."

"The [-]% reduction is due to the destruction of the two companies, which led to the shortage."

"It's not my fault..."

"The imperial court wants to kill people, what can we do, let's just admit it, the two percent..."

The eyes of Kou Tianxiong, Mu Le and others in the audience were as big as copper bells.

"Damn things!"

"Dare to deceive the public!"

The sound was like thunder, exploding the ancestral hall.

They were extremely angry. This little Zhuang Zhang was obviously deliberately inciting public grievances, and directly shifted the responsibility for the people's food shortage to the imperial court.

From Zhang Youde's displeased eyes, he found that Qin Yun and the others were not from the village, and they were dressed neatly and luxuriously.

His face froze: "Who are you?"

Qin Yun stood up and said with a smirk: "Master Zhang, it doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that if you speak like this, won't you be afraid of causing some misunderstanding?"

"Misunderstand?"

"What misunderstanding?"

Zhang Youde's eyes were sharp, and he put his hips on his hips and said, "Are you talking about a misunderstanding? A few powerful people have long intended to help the people to tide over the difficulties, but now the Li and Tang families are gone."

"Isn't it the hand of the court?"

Hearing this, the tenants here turned ugly and whispered to each other.

"The imperial court... oh!"

"Don't give us a way to live."

"War and need food, and the elders of the powerful family were killed by His Majesty again. It's really... Sigh!"

"The imperial court is not benevolent!!"

"..."

Seeing this, Mu Le's lungs exploded with anger!

I can't wait to rush up and smash Zhang Youde's mouth.

But Qin Yun stood in front of him, very calm, without showing his emotions or anger.

With his hands behind his back, he said in a loud voice: "Why don't you say anything about the Li and Tang families monopolizing grain and driving up prices?"

"The reason why the common people have so little food is that you lords and landlords smoke too much?"

"If the Li and Tang families have the heart, can they just give that one as usual?"

"I remember that only some of the Li and Tang families died, and most of the land is still in the hands of individuals from the branch of the family, right?"

The tenants were most concerned about food, and when they heard this, they all looked at Zhang Youde again.

"Yes, people are dead, but the land is still there!"

"The two percent, can't you give it?"

"These two things are not directly related."

Zhang Youde panicked a little, and a trace of resentment flashed across Qin Yun's eyes.

Then he said loudly: "Don't listen to his nonsense, the land has already been confiscated by the court!"

"If the imperial court wants to fight, it is impossible to bring out the food!"

"This bastard, I'm going to kill him!" Mu Le was furious, his eyes bloodshot.

The cabinet ministers all looked icy!

This guy's remarks are extremely embarrassing!

Qin Yun was full of momentum, and replied again: "You fart!"

"What the imperial court confiscated was only the accounts of the Li and Tang families, so why talk about the land?!"

"It's clear that you don't want to give the two percent to frame the court!"

The eyes of the tenants flickered, and they didn't know who to listen to for a while.

Seeing this, Zhang Youde wiped the sweat from his forehead, his fat head and ears were full of panic.

If he continues to be dismantled like this, if he can't complete the task, he will be in trouble!

His eyes were fierce, and he gave Qin Yun a deadly look, with a hint of warning.

"Humph!"
