"This..." The boy hesitated. After hesitating for a moment, he put down his things and said, "I'll ask the shopkeeper later."

Liu An was not in a hurry, and took this time to open the quilt and look inside. The inside was also filled with poplar catkins, which could maintain a little warmth.

After the boy came back, he said to Liu An: "The shopkeeper said that the straw mat can be sold for 60 yuan, and the bedding is still the original price. It will not work any lower."

"Okay, I'm going to pay now. Could you please carry 20 sets of straw mats and quilts to my car?"

"Okay!" The boy responded cheerfully, and he was very happy as he made another big business deal.

Liu An calculated the prices and found that 20 sets of bedding were 4,000 yuan and 20 straw mats were 1,200 yuan, a total of 5,200 yuan.

If Liu An wants to gather the victims, he must provide them with food and accommodation, which will be more conducive to increasing their loyalty.

He doesn't have much money now, so he can only buy some cheap second-hand goods for the victims to use. At least something is better than nothing.

After paying the money at the counter, and after the shopkeeper checked the authenticity of the silver cakes and gave 800 pieces of change, the boy had already moved all the goods to the car.

Liu An thanked him and left with the ox cart.

Seeing a pottery seller on the roadside, Liu An specially spent 20 yuan to buy two pottery pots to use as containers for the blood spirits to eat and drink.

Then Liu An went to Zhang's butcher shop and bought 20 kilograms of pork, hoping to see if he could meet Zhang Fei.

Although Liu An does not have the ability to recruit Zhang Fei now, it is still possible to get to know him and become familiar with him.

It's a pity that Liu An didn't see Zhang Fei. Anyway, no one named Zhang Fei was displayed on the system properties panel.

The total cost of 20 kilograms of pork was 460 yuan. I bought 40 kilograms yesterday. I gave 10 kilograms to Liu Bei and 20 kilograms to Liu Ming. I still have less than 10 kilograms left at home.

Nowadays, if we want to take in disaster victims, we still need to make them do physical work. They must eat meat and salt every day, otherwise the work efficiency will be reduced.

Moreover, there was a big meat consumer next to him. Liu An looked at Blood Spirit with a wry smile.

After staying in the north of the city for another two-quarters of an hour, Liu An spent 160 yuan to buy 10 kilograms of salt and 1,840 yuan to buy 8 shi of unhulled rice.

I also bought grain from this store yesterday, and this time I bought so much. The store generously waived the sack fee for Liu An, and also wiped the leader off for Liu An. In fact, the total cost was 1,800.

8 stones of grain were put into 8 sacks and carried to the car.

After buying all this, the bullock cart was full again. Fortunately, Liu An had almost all the things he planned to buy. Finally, he bought a book of cakes for 25 yuan on the roadside and drove home.

It was already noon, the temperature had risen, and the victims outside seemed to have some energy.

When they saw Liu An driving the bullock cart, they all focused their eyes on the eight sacks behind Liu An, with desire in their eyes.

Looking at the shape of the sack, it is easy to imagine that it contains grain.

Watching Liu An's bullock cart slowly pass among them, several young and strong people among the victims had fierce looks on their eyes.

But when they caught a glimpse of the blood spirit beside Liu An's car, they hesitated a little. Then they looked at the sacks in the car, and their eyes became fierce again.

After hesitating like this for a while, a few people finally couldn't bear the temptation of food anymore and exchanged glances with each other. After Liu An's bullock cart passed by, a few people quietly followed him.

Animals' sense of danger is indeed more sensitive than that of humans. When a few people quietly walked towards Liu An's oxcart, the blood spirit stopped and howled in the direction behind the car.

Liu An noticed something strange about the blood spirit. He stopped the cart and looked behind him, and saw several people looking at him with obviously evil intentions.

Knowing that he encountered a riot by the victims, Liu Anxin was a little nervous, but he was unambiguous in his hands.

He pulled out the sword suddenly, the clanging sound was deafening.

At the same time, Liu An quickly checked the attribute panels of those behind him and found that several people had negative compatibility with him. Obviously, these were the people the blood spirit was shouting at.

He immediately wanted to let the dog bite someone.

But then he stopped his thoughts, Liu An planned to select people from this group of victims to work.

If these people were killed now, I am afraid that all the victims who witnessed this scene would have negative compatibility with me.

At that time, it will not be so easy to recruit refugees to work.

Even if he came here just for a meal, he would not have much loyalty to Liu An, and he might even take Liu An's life when he is weak in the future.

Just when Liu An was hesitating whether to let the dog go, the leader of the riot saw that he could no longer do anything. He suddenly knelt down and knelt down on the ground. While kowtowing hard, he shouted:

"My noble man, be kind and save my son! He is starving to death! Please be kind and give him a bite to eat!"

The person who knelt down was a young man. After the young man knelt down, the victims with malicious intentions also knelt down like the young man and shouted, "Help us."

Some said that their mother was starving to death, and some said that they had not eaten for three days.

When the surrounding victims, who had no idea what was happening, saw this scene, they also knelt down and prayed to Liu An.

For a time, all the victims who gathered outside Zhuoxian City knelt on the ground and worshiped Liu An in the distance. The women even kowtowed, shed tears, and prayed with stagnant expressions, looking pitiful.

When Liu An saw this, he wanted to run away. If he couldn't afford to offend him, why couldn't he hide?

But the road was full of kneeling victims, and Liu An's bullock cart was also surrounded. He rushed out trying to injure several victims. There were so many things in his cart, and the bullocks were pulling, too.

Can't speed it up at all.

Seeing that he could neither leave nor fight, Liu An didn't know what to do for a moment and could only shout anxiously: "Everyone, get up first, get up first."

But it had no effect. The victims still knelt on the ground, kowtowing and begging Liu An for mercy.

In desperation, Liu An got on the bullock cart, stood on it and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Everyone, listen to me!"

The victims stopped and looked up at Liu An. They no longer kowtowed or cried and begged, but they had no intention of getting up.

When Liu An saw that the scene was quiet, he said:

"Everyone, I also know that everyone's life is miserable, but I am just an ordinary person, neither rich nor noble. It's not that I don't want to help you, it's really...I can't do anything!"

What Liu An said was sincere, but completely unconvincing.

This group of refugees has been wandering outside Zhuoxian County for four or five days. Yesterday, they saw Liu An passing by while pushing a cart and buying a load of things.

Before today, another truckload of things passed by, and with this time, it has been three times.

Can ordinary people have such wealth?

Although the victims of the disaster are in poverty, they are not fools. They were also good people before, and the reason is clear.

Even if Liu An lied and said that they saw the wrong person and that it was not him, they could not lie about the several sacks of grain and meat in front of them.

Some victims of the disaster were already wondering whether Liu An was a cruel and vicious man who had no regard for human life and deliberately refused to save them.

The few people who seemed to be the leaders in the attack heard Liu An's words and stood up, asking Liu An disheartenedly:
Chapter completed!
