NOVEL NEXT Chapter 344: Changing sons to eat
When Ye Zhuoyu left, he took half of the people with him. The refugees saw that there were not many people around Ye Qingran and she was a woman, so they were no longer afraid and came out of the house directly to surround her.
"How about it, have you thought about it? If you don't want to die here, quickly ask your people to buy us food!"
They urged Ye Qingran noisily and were very unkind.
Ye Qingran saw that their faces were completely different from when she first came here. She sneered in her heart, but her expression did not change. She said bluntly: "I can buy food for you, but what about the future? If I'm not here in the future, won't you be in trouble again?" To starve to death?”
"after?"
Hearing what she said, the villagers looked at each other and smiled arrogantly, "What will happen in the future? We are all starving to death now. We finally got some food and we are tired these days. Nothing else." He said, "You have to give us what you have to eat now, otherwise wouldn't our work be in vain?"
"What do you mean it's wasted work? Aren't these houses built just for you to live in?"
Ye Qingran just thought it was ridiculous, "If you don't want to starve to death, just listen to me. When things stabilize, I will give you seeds and some grain, so that you have the opportunity to be self-sufficient, and you will not be hungry again in the future."
After hearing this, the villagers just laughed a few times and didn't take it to heart.
Ye Qingran frowned: "But I really don't have any food or money now, so you don't have to wait any longer."
After repeated confirmations, the villagers finally believed that she no longer had any money or food in her hands, and then dispersed and went back to their houses to keep warm.
It's just that their expressions were not kind when they left, and they seemed to be thinking about something.
Naturally, Ye Qingran didn't expect these people to really settle down. After all, there were still some people outside the house, staring directly at her, and it was obvious that they didn't expect her to leave.
She was minding her own business, and soon she saw several men gathering in a room. Before entering, they all looked at her, wondering what they wanted to do.
Ye Qingran didn't care, because he understood what they were thinking without having to think too much.
These people will not let her leave easily, and the fastest and easiest way to keep her is what these men want to do - attack her, let her become a part of this place, become someone or someone 's "wife".
There are no old people or children in this village, and there are not many women. The reason why women stay is so that they can continue to give birth to children and fill their bellies.
It's disgusting, but it's also a common thing to do during times of famine.
At first, she did think that these people were just like the common people in the background, poor people, but now she realized that these people were actually a bit hateful.
The men who entered the room quickly finished their discussion, and when they came out, they looked at her with different eyes for a long time before leaving.
As soon as it got dark, they groped around and gathered around.
Ye Qingran had been staying in a dry corner, sitting by the fire to keep warm.
Although they were tiptoeing, she had noticed their movements before they came out. Although her expression did not change, she had already pinched a packet of medicine in her hand.
After a pause, the men rushed out with evil smiles and were about to grab her and drag her into the house.
But they didn't expect that Ye Qingran was good at martial arts, and he avoided their hands with his movements, and then directly swayed the powder out.
The men were unprepared, and the medicinal powder entered their bodies with their heavy breathing.
At first they didn't take it seriously, but within a few breaths, their bodies changed.
"Strange, why did I feel dizzy all of a sudden..."
They murmured quietly, looking a little shaky while standing.
Ye Qingran smiled and prepared to wait for a good show.
After the men staggered for a while, they finally regained their footing, then entangled and caressed each other and returned to the house.
The medicine she used can cause hallucinations. At this time, they have regarded their companions as beauties in their imagination. This night may not be quiet.
Early the next morning, other people heard the noise and went in to see that it was a mess inside.
The men were lying naked on the ground in a huddle, with some ambiguous red marks on their bodies. The scene was very unsightly.
The screams of others woke them up, and they finally realized what they had done last night, and panicked to find clothes to put on themselves.
They lay like this all night, and were almost freezing at this time. They shivered and didn't put on their clothes for a long time. Others pointed at them and mocked them.
After a few words, these naked men couldn't stand it anymore and started fighting with the people outside.
Ye Qingran watched them fight by the fire without any intention of stopping them. He even wanted to let them beat each other to death.
At the same time, she also noticed the women who did not dare to poke their heads out, and some men who looked more honest and did not participate.
After these people were almost beaten, Ye Qingran took out the crossbow without hesitation and shot the men who were there last night.
Blood splashed all over the floor, and everyone fell silent, turning to look at her in horror.
"Have you had enough trouble?"
Ye Qingran looked at them coldly, "When you've had enough trouble, start working. From now on, those who work seriously will have food to eat. This is the end for those who don't obey orders and have evil thoughts."
Previously, they thought that Ye Qingran was just a kind-hearted rich man, beautiful, and a weak woman with no strength, but they did not expect that she would kill someone directly.
But this is not enough to scare them. After all, for them, death is the most normal thing.
"Don't you have nothing to eat and no money? Are we going to starve to death even if we work?"
"As long as you are obedient, I will naturally find a way to get you food. We can see you tonight. Do you want to listen or not?"
The villagers looked at each other in confusion, and the body on one side was still bleeding. After thinking for a while, they nodded in agreement.
They continued to build houses according to Ye Qingran's request, and the women went to reclaim wasteland.
At night, they didn't see where Ye Qingran had gotten a bunch of corn. Although it was not a serious meal, it was enough to fill their stomachs.
Seeing that Ye Qingran could really get food, they felt much more at ease.
Women just let it go, these men still had other ideas in their hearts, but Ye Yun didn't care and just kept staring at them. As long as they made mistakes on purpose, she would beat them without hesitation.
They were unconvinced at first and wanted to fight her, but after the fight, they found that they were still unable to defeat her, so they started to work honestly.
