Shi Tao looked at Lin Xu with complicated eyes and asked again!
However, his tone was not aggressive, and there was also a kind of caution. Lin Xu's momentum was really too strong, which put a lot of pressure on him. He was worried that Lin Xu was someone he could not afford to offend, so he spoke more
careful.
However, Lin Xu did not answer this question at all and scolded: "You have neither paper documents nor conclusive evidence, so you just frame them randomly and even want to kill people! If you kill the wrong person, you will be held accountable afterwards.
Do you bear this responsibility, or does the Yamen assume this responsibility?"
Upon hearing this, Shi Tao immediately felt nervous!
Although the Yamen gave orders to crack down on those people who bought food privately, the Yamen did not specify how hard they would attack, whether to arrest or kill them.
Moreover, this is only a verbal order, and there is no written document.
If something really happened, Zhen Si Yamen would never take responsibility for him, and he would definitely be hit with a sledgehammer.
Seeing Shi Tao's deflated look, Lin Xu struck while the iron was hot and continued to scold: "Let him go!"
This time, Shi Tao hesitated and said: "People can be released, but food cannot be taken away! Mr. Feng has made it clear that all private purchases of food will be cracked down on! Regardless of whether they bought enough food from Japanese pirates, they cannot
Let them take them away!"
Upon hearing this, the people immediately shouted!
"Why don't you let us take the food away?!"
“This is the food that many of our families pooled their money to buy!”
"We are still waiting for these grains to survive!"
Shi Tao did not dare to speak loudly to Lin Xu, but he had no worries about the common people. He immediately glared and reprimanded: "I told you not to take you away, so I won't let you take them away! How can there be so much nonsense?
?! If you dare to say more, I will arrest you all together!"
Lin Xu could see that Shi Tao was not determined to capture these people, but he was very determined to take away the food!
Although he suppressed these sergeants with his momentum just now, if these soldiers suddenly wake up and insist on taking these people away, then the few people he brings may not be able to keep these people!
Even if we can forcibly keep these people, if there are any casualties in the conflict, it will not be worth the gain!
So, Lin Xu quickly made a decision: "You can take the food away, but you have to leave the people to me!"
"OK!"
Shi Tao pondered for a moment, then readily agreed!
Anyway, his duty is to prevent people from buying food privately. As long as he can detain the food, he has completed the task. As for other things, he doesn't want to cause trouble.
However, those ordinary people were still reluctant to part with it!
"These are our life-saving food! There are still many people in the village waiting for life-saving food!"
"This is the food we bought together. If there was no food, we would not have the shame to go back to the village..."
"You can't take our food away!"
Looking at these crying people, Lin Xu only said one word to comfort them.
"Come with me, I'll make sure you have food to eat!"
After hearing these words, the common people kneeling on the ground, you look at me, I look at you, they all stood up and walked behind Lin Xu.
"Everyone, come with me!"
Lin Xu glanced at Shi Tao meaningfully, turned around and got on the carriage! This chapter has been completed!
