Chapter 922: Situation in the Refugee Camp

"If I hadn't used the mount token to transform into a tank and fired a shot, I would have more experience points now, and maybe I could level up again." Wu Fan looked at his character attribute panel and said to himself: "But it's really annoying that I can't see the specific experience points."

It has to be said that there are still many beasts on Tianshan Mountain, and they provide a lot of experience points. Wu Fan has been there for less than half a day and has gained a lot of experience points. Of course, this is also related to his setting up mechanisms and having helpers, which greatly increased his leveling speed.

Although it is a pity that he lost experience points because of changing tanks in Shanling Pass before, he could only do so under the circumstances at that time. If Peng Chuan and others escaped, it would not be easy to end the Shanling Pass attack and defense as soon as possible.

Wu Fan appeared outside Qingyuan County, walking towards the city while thinking about leveling up.

Obviously, Tianshan is a very good leveling point, and he has a teleportation point there, which is convenient to go there. There are many beasts there, with high levels, and can provide a lot of experience points. Wu Fan is quite satisfied with leveling there.

Thinking about leveling in his mind, Wu Fan kept walking and soon reached the periphery of the refugee camp. However, when Wu Fan came to the periphery of the refugee camp, his brows could not help but frown again.

When I left here last time, because many wealthy families in Qingyuan County built porridge shops under Wu Fan's coercion and gave alms to refugees, the entire refugee camp had a rare vitality. The people who were originally here were full of hope for the future, and this place was no longer dead.

But this time when Wu Fan came again, he found that this place seemed to have returned to the previous atmosphere of despair and no vitality. The refugees in the refugee camp sat on the ground, and some of their faces were no longer hopeful, but desperate and confused.

"How could this happen?" Wu Fan looked at the weak, pale and skinny refugees and said to himself, "Could it be that during my absence, those people in the city stopped giving alms?"

The more he thought about it, the more likely it was that Wu Fan felt that this was the case. When he left, Ji Hao had stolen and sold two-thirds of the official grain in the city's granary, resulting in a shortage of official grain in the city. The big families in the city also knew about this situation, and some people expressed concerns about this situation at the time.

The reason why the big families in Qingyuan County obeyed Wu Fan's arrangements was not only because of Wu Fan's coercion, but also because Wu Fan promised them that he would open the official granary in the city and use the grain in the official granary to help the people. They only needed to take out a part of the grain.

Later, when they knew that most of the food in the government warehouse was missing, many people changed their minds. If Wu Fan insisted on providing relief to the refugees outside the city and the government warehouse in the city could not provide enough food, wouldn't they have to take out most of the food? They couldn't accept this situation. Although Wu Fan had promised them before leaving Qingyuan County that he would solve the problem of food and didn't need those big households to take the lion's share, not many people believed it. In today's world, there is a shortage of food everywhere. Wu Fan is just a small viscount. How can he get food?

It was because of this speculation that many big households did not believe Wu Fan at the time. In this case, it is very likely that they stopped providing relief to the refugees outside the city.

Wu Fan's face was ashen as he walked through the refugee camp and prepared to enter the city to find out what was going on.

"Swindler! They said there was porridge here, so I came all the way from the nearby county, but there was nothing!"

"I said, can the gentlemen in Qingyuan County be so kind? They are all liars!"

"All officials are the same, they don't care about the lives of us ordinary people!"

When Wu Fan passed through the refugee camp, he heard all kinds of complaints. It can be seen that there are indeed more young people here than before. They should have come here after hearing that there was porridge here, but they found that there was nothing here. They were all very angry and felt cheated.

"You are talking nonsense, big brother is not a liar." A childish voice sounded, with a little fear and stubbornness in the voice.

When Wu Fan heard this voice, his steps paused slightly.

"Big brother? Who is your big brother? How can he manage the affairs of the city?"

"Little brat, get out of the way."

"I think you look pretty, little girl. If I'm really hungry, I'll eat you!"

The little girl stepped back in fear, but she was still saying, "My big brother is the most powerful person in the city. He was the one who sent people to give us porridge before. He's not a liar."

"Where's the porridge? Where's the porridge?"

"Porridge... porridge..." The little girl was speechless.

"The officials in the city are all liars. They gave out porridge before just for show. Now that the show is over, there's nothing left!"

"Yes, they are all the same!"

"Little girl, you said your big brother is the most powerful person in the city. If I catch you, will your big brother give me food? Hehe..."

"What are you doing..." The little girl stepped back in fear.

The young man walked slowly towards the little girl with a disgusting smile on his face, while the people around him looked at her with gloating or looked away numbly, as if they had no idea what was happening here. In this situation, they couldn't even protect themselves, so how could they care about other people's affairs?

"Bang!"

Just when the young man was about to catch the little girl, a foot suddenly stretched out from the side and kicked him out directly, with a miserable scream that made people's scalps numb.

The little girl subconsciously looked at the person who came, and was startled at first, and then overjoyed.

"Big brother!"

The little girl ran towards the person who came with a happy face, and Wu Fan bent down and squatted, hugging the other party.

The person who came was Wu Fan, and the little girl was Ni'er, whom Wu Fan had met once before. Wu Fan didn't expect that he would meet her again by chance when he passed by here today.

"Good girl, Ni'er." Wu Fan ignored the vigilant, fearful and daunting eyes of others around him, smiled and touched Ni'er's hair, and asked: "Has anyone come here to make porridge for you these days?"

"Uh..." The little girl was originally smiling, but after hearing Wu Fan's words, the smile on her face faded. She wanted to say something, but she didn't dare to speak.

"Tell big brother, did you?" Wu Fan asked.

"No..." The little girl whispered: "There were some in the first two days, but not later. Big brother, they all said that you didn't let them continue to make porridge for us. Ni'er didn't believe it and quarreled with them. Big brother, this has nothing to do with you, right?"

Facing Ni'er's expectant eyes, Wu Fan nodded with a gloomy face.

My previous guess was indeed correct! Those bastards actually stopped providing relief to refugees outside the city.
