Except for Magistrate Sun, probably few people present were like him, hoping that the bigger the fire, the better.
As more and more people came to put out the fire, disputes soon arose.
People living nearby certainly don't want to knock down their houses to create a barrier.
It's different for people who live farther away.
When the fire spreads, even those who live a little further away will become victims.
Soon, those who advocated knocking down the house gained the upper hand.
After all, there are only a few people living around the granary, and most people still hope to create an isolation zone to prevent the city gate from catching fire and affecting the fish in the pond.
In the end, even the government officials sided with the demolitionists.
The people living nearby were soon unable to stop him. They could only cry helplessly as they watched their houses being knocked down.
Yun Chao was happy. Although he smiled bitterly, this was already the best result.
Didn’t Magistrate Sun not want the fire to be extinguished? What would he do now?
Looking at Magistrate Sun again, his face turned pale.
I really don’t know how the guy who set the fire did it. If you want to set fire, just make it bigger. What’s the point of burning only one granary? Doesn’t this clearly tell others that there is something wrong with the granary?
Most of the warehouse is filled with straw, which burns quickly and disappears quickly.
Before dark, all open fires were extinguished.
Seeing the granary turned into a pile of ruins, all the granary officials knelt on the ground and cried bitterly. They knew that their lives were over!
The people living near the granary, like the petty officials, knelt on the ruins of their homes and wept.
In fact, when building the granary, fire prevention was already taken into consideration, and it was set a certain distance from the surrounding residential buildings.
However, the distance is not too far. If the fire is really too big, just a small road cannot stop it.
Therefore, only a few surrounding houses were demolished to create a wide enough isolation belt.
Only seven or eight households were damaged.
If Magistrate Sun is willing, he can help them rebuild their house by just slipping a little bit of it between his fingers.
It's a pity that Magistrate Sun just closed his lips and said nothing.
How could Magistrate Sun take the people seriously? He is feeling upset now. If he had known there was something wrong with the granary, would he have checked it carefully earlier?
There must be a mole around him, otherwise his opponent would not get the news so quickly.
Yun Er had just taken down the cell leader and the director of the armory, and the granary was on fire. He was so powerful!
Thinking of this, Magistrate Sun couldn't help but hate Yun Chao.
It's all the fault of Yun Er, that bastard. If he hadn't acted recklessly and taken down the cell leader and armory supervisor without authorization, how could the other party have jumped over the wall and done such a thing that was harmful to others and not self-interested?
However, things have already happened. In order to put out the fire, Yun Er covered himself with mud, water and dust, and is now being praised by many people. If he is blamed now, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the people and even cause suspicion among the people.
Okay, Yun Er, you wait for me, I will definitely find an opportunity to deal with you!
But, does he still have a chance to deal with Yun Er?
Such a big thing happened, the armory and the grain depot were in trouble at the same time. I definitely couldn't be a county magistrate!
If you can't even protect yourself, how can you deal with Yun Er?
No, no, no, no...
Magistrate Sun was heartbroken when he thought that once he committed a crime, his concubine and daughter would suffer.
According to the past practice of the Great Wu Dynasty, the female relatives of criminal officials were either sold to others as slaves, or sold to Goulan House, and the best ones also entered the Jiaofang Department and became the most humble people!
Magistrate Sun has a shortcoming, which may also be said to be an advantage, and that is that he loves his daughter very much.
When he thought that his precious daughter might become a piece of trash that could be ridden by thousands of people and crushed by tens of thousands of people, Magistrate Sun felt that even breathing was painful.
No longer caring about resenting Yun Chao, he grabbed his arm and said, "Yun Er, I want to ask you something. Since I promoted you to be an inspector, you have to agree no matter what." ah!"
Yun Chao was startled: "County magistrate, I don't have that much food to fill your hole. You'd better hurry up and ask someone to take the money and find a way to buy food from other places!"
Magistrate Sun shook his head like a rattle: "Yun Er, I'm not asking you for food, I want to entrust my daughter to your care. If something happens to me, please protect my daughter!"
"this……"
Yun Chao knew that Magistrate Sun was most likely dead.
Once Magistrate Sun is over, his family members are likely to suffer the same fate.
"County magistrate, it's not that I don't want to help, it's mainly that I have a fiancée, and your daughter is following me with no name or status, which is a bit unfair to her. If she is willing to be a child..."
"Cloud! Two!"
Magistrate Sun was so angry that he wanted to kill someone.
"I'm asking you to help take care of my daughter. I'm not asking her to marry you. You don't show your virtue by peeing in the urine. It's really a toad that wants to eat swan meat!"
Yun Chao was scolded so hard by Magistrate Sun that he fainted from the scolding.
Damn it, I was just joking, did I need to get so angry?
Okay, okay, Lao Sun, if you have the guts, don’t you look down on my brother? I just don’t care about him anymore, just do what you like!
Seeing Yun Chao turn around and leave, the proud look on Magistrate Sun's face flashed away.
It was such a close call. Fortunately, I was smart enough to come back to my words, otherwise it would have been really difficult.
Just now, after County Magistrate Sun asked Yun Chao to help take care of his daughter, he suddenly regretted it.
After he finished speaking, he realized what Yun Chao meant by what he said before.
Yes, even though the food is burned out, you can still spend money to buy it. As long as you can replenish the food in the granary, won't it be fine?
After reacting, Magistrate Sun's attitude immediately took a 180-degree turn.
He scolded Yun Chao and ran away on the spot. He still wants to marry his precious daughter. Just live in your daydream!
What Magistrate Sun didn't know was that Yun Chao turned around with a smile on his lips.
To be honest, he didn't want Magistrate Sun to be unlucky now.
It was difficult to straighten out the relationship. Not to mention that I was able to handle Magistrate Sun, but I didn't need to be as timid as before.
If there is another county magistrate, who knows what his temper will be.
If he is not even as good as Magistrate Sun, he is always looking for trouble for himself and scheming with him. It is really a waste of time and emotions.
As for how Magistrate Sun could make up for the lost food, Yun Chao didn't care.
Who asked the old guy to curse? I was originally going to help him, but now let him have a headache.
If Magistrate Sun knew that he had scolded Yun Chao, who was willing to help him, and ran away, he didn't know how he would feel.
After Yun Chao took the people away, he also went back.
When I left, I didn't forget to ask the government officials to arrest all the clerks in the granary.
As for the people kneeling and crying on the ruins, Magistrate Sun was not even interested in taking a look.
I still have a headache how to replenish the food in the granary, how can I have time to care about the life and death of ordinary people like you!
