Chapter 166 Investigator goes to the countryside

Mr. Qi nodded in agreement.

"Yes, thanks to Manman and Yunshu!"

His eyes fell on the granddaughter who was eating melon seeds, and a trace of pride and pride flashed in her eyes.

hum!

He has a precious granddaughter. Even if there is a famine, with his granddaughter's ability, he can keep the family fat and healthy.

Qi Man suddenly raised her head and met her grandfather's proud eyes, tilting her head in confusion, showing her cuteness.

Mr. Qi almost had a nosebleed at the sight of his granddaughter.

This little girl is too naive!

As expected of a cub born to his eldest son, every little move can make people like him.

Mother Xie was still talking blankly:

"No!"

As he spoke, he placed the peeled melon seeds in front of Qi Man.

Qi Man looked at the white and tender melon seeds, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said softly:

"Thank you mom!"

I finally don’t have to eat melon seeds anymore, and now my tongue hurts a little.

This little pain makes me too lazy to use the wood power.

It feels so good to have someone to feed you!

Winter turns to spring.

Spring is full of vitality. Thin buds sprout from the bare land. They are green and full of life. Just looking at it is a visual feast.

Qi Man loves winter, but she also likes the vibrant spring and a vital environment. She doesn't like lifeless and cold laboratories.

Everything revives, and roads blocked by snow are opened.

The surrounding environment has also undergone certain changes. Qi Man discovered that many bulges appeared on the nearby hills, and there were densely packed stone tablets with no names on them.

Just like the scene in the game Plants vs. Zombies, everything you look at is a cemetery.

If my guess is correct, all of these people probably starved to death in winter.

As the number of people dropped sharply, the government also aroused suspicion and sent people to the countryside to investigate with the village committee.

Except for Qingyun Village, the surrounding villages have lost nearly half of their population.

People from the government and the village committee visited Bai Jiachun.

At that time, Bai Jiachun was still at Qi's house, drinking hot tea and chatting with Mr. Qi, until someone from the village committee came to the door.

When he caught a glimpse of a girl as beautiful as an elf in the house, a flash of surprise flashed across his eyes.

I didn't expect that in such a barren village, there would be such a bright and charming person.

Realizing that the group of people were clearly examining Qi Man, Xie Yunshu's eyes darkened and he stood in front of his wife calmly.

This was like a carefully guarded treasure being spied on, which made Xie Yunshu feel an inexplicable crisis in his heart.

Xie Yunshu's aura was cold, and only then did the people from the village committee look away.

Mother Xie brought the kettle and filled it with hot tea to greet the people in the village committee.

"Village Chief Bai, it's like this. The government found that the number of people around us continued to decrease sharply, and sent us to the countryside to investigate winter avalanches. They distribute supplies every month, which is enough for every household to survive the winter. Why is it still causing the current situation! Qingyun Why is the village in peace?"

The speaker was a middle-aged woman, wearing glasses and looking stern.

Bai Jiachun was a little confused when asked:

"When was it distributed?"

Since the avalanche, he has never seen the government release a grain of rice, let alone relying on these supplies to survive the winter.

As this sentence came out, the investigators all looked at each other, understood, and roughly guessed what happened in the middle.

Bai Jiachun is also a human being, and he has already talked about this, so what else don’t you understand?

It's just that the supplies distributed by the government have been swallowed up by middlemen. By the time they are at this stage, not a single grain of rice has been seen.

If it weren't for Manman's relief, even if their Qingyun Village had a good harvest, he knew better than anyone what the outcome would be.

Anger filled his chest, he slapped the table angrily and said angrily:

"No matter what, you all have to give us an explanation. So many people have starved to death, but there are loopholes in it, and it is us common people who suffer! If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I will definitely put this person to death." Everyone knows what happened! It will be difficult to suppress it by then."

The investigator's face also looked a little ugly.

He is immortal, why is it so difficult to deal with?

Now that it hasn't affected their village, wouldn't it be better to turn a blind eye?You have to be the one who stands out.

Anyone who knows how to wink and speak would not be so blunt. If he offends the people above him, the people below him will not suffer at all.

The woman's face was ugly, but she still forced a smile, suppressed her dissatisfaction, and comforted Bai Jiachun in a friendly manner:

"I know this incident has caused heavy losses, but this is not what we wanted to happen! But the matter has reached this point, and there is nothing we can do. You, old man, don't go into it any further. After all, you have offended the people above, and we are the ones who will feel the discomfort!"

"Humph!"

Bai Jiachun snorted coldly.

"It sounds nice, just tell me what to do!"

These sugar-coated bullets will not work on him, and he is not afraid of offending the people above him. Anyway, he is an old man, and half of his body has been buried in the soil.

The woman was speechless and looked as ugly as constipation.

Why can't this old man get enough oil and salt?

You have lived for more than half your life, why can't you see things as clearly as a young person?

"The matter is settled and there is no way to change it. Old man, if you want to offend the people above, please don't implicate us. If you are willing to cooperate and don't expose this matter, we are willing to compensate you for a three-story red brick house." , you don’t have to pay a penny, just wait and move in, what do you think?”

I believe that no rural person can resist the temptation of a red brick house, let alone a three-story house.

"boom!"

Bai Jiachun slammed the table, louder than the previous one:

"Fuck you! Trying to silence me with something like this is simply wishful thinking! Either give us a reasonable explanation and let those people down, or make it known to everyone and lose all face!"

When the investigators saw that Bai Jiachun was unwilling to give face, they simply showed off their cards and were no longer as pleasant as before:

"I just talked to you. If you don't like it, then we have nothing to say! You are just a small village chief. Even if you have great abilities, you can't make any big troubles. If I were you, I would accept the compensation. Keep this thing in your stomach!"

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense, and neither party gave in.

"Then let's just wait and see! Get out of here, you are not welcome in Qingyun Village!"

Nowadays, with the new reform and new society, I didn’t expect that there are still some blood-sucking moths who are making money with human lives.

The investigators were humiliated, took their things, and left one after another.

Qi Man suddenly had something to play with, and she twisted her little finger lightly.

With a sound of "Bang!", the investigators were all knocked upside down.
