There were more than thirty zombies in Erliu Fang, so Zhao Yanxun and his men quickly cleared them out.
But this fact was only known to them. The common people still hid in their rooms, and the dignitaries outside the house did not dare to come in.
This gave Zhao Yanxun the opportunity to make arrangements calmly.
He carried all the corpses that had been bitten to death into the Hu family's granary and placed them in the passage between the two walls.
This can ensure that after these infected people mutate into zombies, they can not only isolate the outside world, but also prevent zombies from spoiling food.
Sitting in the courtyard, Zhao Yanxun put his knife on the ground and just watched his men working.
An hour passed quickly. While they were busy, most of the dignitaries waiting outside sat back in their sedan chairs.
They were not in a hurry to leave before things came to an end.
Whether Zhao Yanxun died or the zombies were cleared away, it was good news for them.
"Everyone... tell me, is King Yong already..." Someone couldn't help but ask.
Hearing this, Wu Yunsheng, who was standing outside, frowned and said, "Don't talk nonsense!"
It's okay to say it once at first, just to test everyone's attitude, but it's not good to keep saying it.
If he really spilled the beans and was chopped into two pieces by Zhao Yanxun, there would really be no place to cry.
Wu Yunsheng turned to Tian Jingtong and asked with a smile: "Master Tian, the day after tomorrow... we can lift martial law in the city!"
Tian Jingtong nodded. Except for Erliufang, the city was basically stable.
The most important thing is that more and more people have been causing trouble recently, and the yamen prison can hardly be closed anymore, and it is also very expensive to provide food, clothing and housing.
"Sir, can both the inside and outside of the city gate be unsealed?" Wu Yunsheng then asked.
Hearing these words, Tian Jingtong narrowed his eyes slightly. He didn't understand what Wu Yunsheng meant.
Monsters have appeared outside the city. Wu Yunsheng also mentioned unblocking the inside and outside at this time. What does this mean?
Seeing Tian Jingtong's doubts, he heard Wu Yunsheng say: "Sir, there are so many people in the city who have to live and eat!"
"There are so many difficulties in the city that even a wealthy family like mine has no way to survive for a long time!"
"So I thought... it would be better to let the people in the city out of the city, maybe they can find a way to survive!"
Wu Yunsheng's words immediately attracted the interest of most people present.
Again, as long as you have a clear mind, you will know that the hundreds of thousands of mouths in the city are a huge hidden danger to everyone's interests.
At this moment, Tian Jingtong understood what Wu Yunsheng meant.
"This..." Tian Jingtong hesitated.
His hesitation was due to two reasons.
First, as a parent official, even if he was no longer a thing, he personally sent the people out of the city to die, which made Tian Jingtong feel a little resistant.
Secondly, he was worried about King Yong's attitude. He had given the order to close the city, and he was afraid that Zhao Yanxun would hold him accountable.
Seeing Tian Jingtong's hesitation, Wu Yunsheng immediately turned around and said to everyone: "No matter what Mr. Tian decides, everyone here will fully support him!"
Most people were listening with their ears pricked up, but when they saw Wu Yunsheng say this, they all walked out of the sedan.
"Yes, we all support Mr. Tian!"
"Please, sir, put the survival of the people first and let them live!"
"My lord, please take the hearts of the people into consideration..."
A group of powerful people are making endless noises. When people who don't know the situation see them, they will just think that they are good people who put themselves in the shoes of the common people.
These people were expressing their opinions, but they gathered in such a swarm that they seemed to be trying to force someone to have an abortion.
Everyone's eyes were glaring, which made Tian Jingtong very unhappy.
He is the governor of Longyou. If these people want to coerce him so quickly, why don't they rebel in the future?
"Everyone, don't rush into anything!" Tian Jingtong said calmly.
After hearing this, the scene suddenly became quiet and seemed extremely embarrassed.
"Sir, you have to think clearly. Forcing people to stay in the city is a recipe for disaster!" Wu Yunsheng narrowed his eyes slightly.
Tian Jingtong didn't say anything. In essence, he also belonged to the powerful class, so he naturally knew that what Wu Yunsheng said was reasonable.
But again, he didn't want to be coerced.
Seeing this situation, Cheng Wenguang on the side smiled and stepped forward and said: "Everyone... Mr. Tian also has his concerns, you must let him think more!"
"Unlocking the city gates is a big deal, how can it be decided casually?"
With Cheng Wenguang to smooth things over, the atmosphere at the scene would not be so solemn.
At this moment, all the powerful people also realized that they should not be too anxious, and should be more concerned about Tian Jingtong's face.
With such a force as Prince Yong's Mansion, they need Tian Jingtong's appearance so that they can compete with each other in the future.
"What Mr. Cheng said is reasonable, but I was the one who was rude!" Wu Yunsheng said with a smile.
After he finished speaking, everyone else didn't say much and just pretended to laugh a few times.
In fact, Tian Jingtong has been slowly planning in his mind about the lifting of the city's lockdown in two days.
Putting aside the struggle with the powerful, Tian Jingtong also realized very clearly at this moment that he could not keep the hundreds of thousands of people in the city.
Everyone had their own thoughts at the moment, but at this moment, there was a call at the door in Erliu Fang.
"Open the door, open the door..."
Just now, everyone was thinking that they wanted Zhao Yanxun to die inside, but no one mentioned it again at this moment.
The door of the square was slowly opened, and Zhao Yanxun and his party appeared inside.
When he came out with his guards, Cheng Wenguang immediately greeted him and asked the question that everyone was most worried about.
"Your Highness, have you killed all the monsters inside?"
Zhao Yanxun shook his head and then said: "There are too many monsters to kill them all... I can only trap them in a few alleys around the Hu family's granary!"
Originally, Zhao Yanxun planned to place the zombies between the walls of the granary, but later he thought more and expanded the area where the zombies were scattered.
Between several alleys, he ordered people to make isolation belts using door panels and ropes to ensure that they were absolutely solid and reliable.
In this way, the 70 or 80 zombies contained therein will be enough to ensure food security.
Just in case, Zhao Yanxun also left ten guards behind, who would patrol for the last line of insurance.
In fact, Zhao Yanxun is not the only one who has ideas about the Hu family granary. Wu Yunsheng, for example, is also making plans.
But after hearing Zhao Yanxun's words, Wu Yunsheng felt a chill in his heart. He didn't have the ability to get food.
"It seems that we need to organize training for the servants in the nursing home as soon as possible so that they dare to fight monsters!" Wu Yunsheng made a decision in his mind.
The number of servants and servants in his family's various properties totals 70 or 80 people. If he joins forces with other family members, it will not be a problem to gather 700 or 800 people.
You must hurry up, otherwise it will be fish on the chopping board.
"Perhaps, the family can recruit more helpers!" Wu Yunsheng came up with this idea.
In fact, when they saw the military superiority of Prince Yong's Mansion, everyone had the same idea as Wu Yunsheng.
Even the governor Tian Jingtong had this idea at the moment.
In order to stabilize grain prices, he transferred a lot of grain from official warehouses in various places, so that his governor's office had the confidence to expand its manpower.
It can be said that as this apocalyptic crisis becomes more and more urgent, the changes in everyone's mentality are visible.
"Master Tian, I have dealt with all the bites and scratches of the people in Erliu Fang..."
These people were all killed by Zhao Yanxun and then thrown around the granary, where they were gradually completing their mutation.
"But just in case, the government should screen these people again and clear Erliu Fang of no one to live in again!"
Tian Jingtong and everyone else nodded. No one dares to be careless in such a matter of life and death.
Walking to Tian Jingtong's side, Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice: "If you have something you can't handle in the future, you can come to the palace for help. There's no shame in it!"
