However, he still forced himself to be patient and asked, "Why are you so panicked? Didn't you see your master, I am entertaining the distinguished guests?"
"Master, a group of people came outside and asked for water."
Hearing what the boy said, Mr. Yang frowned and subconsciously wanted to answer. Didn't I tell you earlier that those who came to buy water would just be kicked out today.
However, when the words came to his lips, Mr. Yang suddenly reacted.
Could it be that group of people?
"Are they a group of outsiders asking for water at the gate of our Yang Mansion?"
"yes."
Hearing what Master Yang said, the two young men mistakenly thought that their master had known about it for a long time and had an idea in mind, so they breathed a sigh of relief.
"The two of us took a look at everything. There are probably two to three hundred people! And the leaders are several men who look very good at fighting!"
The boy complained a little more jealously, "We relayed your previous instructions, master, but the other party didn't listen to a word and insisted on breaking into our house!"
Hearing what the young man said, the head of the Yang family looked gloomy.
Lao Heng next to him said, "No matter what ideas these people have, they must go out and take a look first."
"Um."
The old man had a scar across his face from his right eye to his ear.
This scar is quite light, similar to Lao Heng's skin color. It's not particularly obvious at first glance, but if you look at it for a long time, it gives people a particularly sinister and sinister feeling.
"You wait for me here for a moment, I'll go out and meet them."
Master Yang went out with his two boys and stood at the gate of Yang's Mansion. Sure enough, he saw the large group of people they mentioned from all the way.
No matter how powerful these people are, there is such a dark mass surrounding them, which makes people feel uneasy when they see it.
"Oh, are you here asking for water?"
Since Mr. Yang showed up, he has completely lost his gloominess, and there are many smiles on his face.
"Is this Mr. Yang?"
While the head of the Yang family was speaking, he looked at the group of people, and finally fell on Xiang Rui, who was standing in front of the crowd.
This man seems to have a very fierce aura, and he should be the leader of this group of people.
But Xiang Rui, whom he liked, did not speak.
It was the girl standing in front of Xiang Rui who really spoke.
The other party was careless, with a smile on his face, but for some reason, there was a feeling that this person was not easy to deal with.
Master Yang subconsciously wanted to analyze the girl's whereabouts, but for a while he couldn't see anything. He could only say, "I am Yang Shen, the owner of the Yang Mansion. Who are you?"
With a smile on his face, Shen Jun told some of the news he could tell.
For example, where did they come from and why did they come to Zhiling County?
These are not things that cannot be said. Shen Jun said it quite generously.
But as for other things, even if the Yang family leader wanted to ask, it would be difficult for him to ask.
"So when passing by Zhiling County, we stopped by to take a look."
Shen Jun said, "I heard that your Zhiling County is much better than outside. The drought is not particularly serious. Especially in Yang Mansion, there is no shortage of water or food, so I came to your place to take a look."
"I wonder if Mr. Yang can lend us some water."
Shen Jun smiled and said, "I guess Mr. Yang has always been kind-hearted, so he is naturally willing to give us some water. These brothers behind me are waiting to drink water."
Mr. Yang's smile faded a lot, and his eyes flashed slightly when he looked at Shen Jun.
Sure enough, as his two servants said, some of these people are not easy to mess with.
This tone sounds good, but the content of the words, isn't it threatening him?
The atmosphere in the air suddenly became a little stagnant.
There was a bit of indifference in Mr. Yang's smile, "A few of them came from afar and had to leave their hometowns because of the drought. I have always liked to do good deeds, so naturally I will not ignore them. It's just..."
In the middle of speaking, Mr. Yang suddenly showed a troubled look on his face, "The disaster situation in our Zhiling County is indeed less serious than that outside, but the few people who can come to us must also understand that the whole county is relying on me." I can live my life with this well, but I don’t have so much water here. If I give this to you, what should other people in the county drink?"
This sounds quite reasonable, but if you analyze it carefully, you will find that it is completely nonsense.
As long as Mr. Yang sells water at low prices, what he says makes sense.
But based on the price he usually shouts out, it makes sense to say that people in the whole county rely on his water to live, but it is not like giving some to Shen Jun and the others, and others will be without water.
To be precise.
It should be that if he took out some water, he would make a lot less money.
This is really the most difficult thing for Mr. Yang.
However, other ordinary people may not imagine this deeply.
At first glance, they felt that Master Yang's words seemed to make sense.
But if this is the case...
The person behind Shen Jun began to frown slowly.
Are you planning to give them water?
unexpectedly.
The next moment, a smile returned to Mr. Yang's face, "But after all, it's not easy for you to come here. I can indeed share some of this water with you, or even give it to you for free."
"Ah." Shen Jun maintained the same smile from beginning to end. This smile was as bright as the slightly hypocritical smile on Master Yang's face. "Master Yang is indeed a truly good person!"
Shen Jun said to the large group of people behind him, "Have you heard this? I have to thank Mr. Yang quickly."
"Thank you, Mr. Yang!"
The voices shouted by a group of people who were full of momentum were also very powerful.
It is guaranteed that every household within a few miles can clearly hear their "thank you".
Mr. Yang then turned around and looked at the people behind him, "Didn't you hear? Why don't you hurry up and prepare clean water so that these guests who have come from afar can quench their thirst?"
The boys behind Mr. Yang looked at each other, and they all saw surprise in each other's eyes.
They have been with Master Yang for so many years. When had they ever seen their master be such a generous person?
But they took a closer look and confirmed that their master wanted them to really bring out clean water, not water that had been tampered with.
Could it be that because so many people came this time, the master was feeling frightened?
Under Master Yang's eyes, these people quickly agreed.
"My people have already gone to prepare water. I have to trouble you guys to wait a little longer."
Master Yang said with a smile, but at this moment, the disgust in his heart reached its peak.
Want to drink his water?
If they could, he gave them something to drink.
But if you want to drink his water, you always have to pay some price.
