Chapter 689 It turned out to be a scam(2/2)

"You've finally come out. What happened to these two people today? If a stranger comes in to our village, they will be arrested. This is all because of your face."

Zhu Han laughed heartily. He protected Zhu Yuanzhang behind him and introduced his eldest brother to the village chief.

"My eldest brother travels all over the country to do business, and he never has any fear. It seems that we didn't pick up the person last night, so he came back on his own."

"It's just right now. We're ready. Why don't we strike while the iron is hot and let's go look at the food."

Zhu Hanke remembered that the village chief boasted in front of him that Haikou had all the food under their control.

As long as he can put more effort into the granary, he can immediately seize the opponent's advantage. This is what Zhu Han is most optimistic about right now.

The village chief never thought that Zhu Han would change his mind so quickly, and he was a little embarrassed.

But at this time, the men beside him couldn't hold it any longer. When they heard Zhu Han said that he could give them money after seeing the food, they immediately wanted to step forward.

The greed in those eyes could not be concealed.

"Since you can give me money after looking at it, I can take you there. We have plenty of food, so I can rest assured that we can meet your requirements."

"That's right. The harvest in our village every year is not weak at all. No matter how hard you live, it will never cause problems for your business."

Zhu Han really didn't expect that these people could stand and talk without pain, but they were demanding the people's food and leaving them hungry.

They still pretended to be good people, and Zhu Han and Zhu Yuanzhang both endured the anger in their hearts and agreed to go down to the granary.

The village chief gritted his teeth and glared at his men. He never expected that these two idiots would ruin his plan like this.

He controls all the food in the village.

It was just a way to make the villagers obey, but now each of them has begun to make decisions for themselves.

The village chief immediately noticed that the villagers seemed to be getting out of his control intentionally or unintentionally, and it was definitely not a good thing if this continued.

Zhu Yuanzhang followed Zhu Han as he walked in the fields and saw that all the grain had been collected.

The green patch in the distance was still relatively lush, which made Zhu Yuanzhang a little surprised.

Zhu Yuanzhang took two steps forward and walked to the village chief. He pointed to the field on the hillside in the distance.

"The grains far away from the village chief don't seem to be ripe yet. This is something that shouldn't be available in a season like this."

Facing Zhu Yuanzhang's inquiry, the village chief's eyes instantly became evasive. He smiled with a smile on his face, but he was full of concealment when listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's words.

"You must have looked at it wrong. It's just some weeds, and all the grain has been collected."

The village chief's actions immediately made Zhu Han and Zhu Yuanzhang realize something was wrong.

They had already heard a lot of news when they were in Yingtian Mansion, saying that food in several nearby villages had become increasingly scarce.

Even the grains in Yingtian Mansion's granary are just miscellaneous grains harvested from various places.

In this small village, not only are there mountains of food, but they can also build three granaries. This would be unbelievable to ordinary people.

Zhu Yuanzhang himself was also a farmer, but he never believed that so much food could be grown in just a few acres of fertile land. It was simply a pretense.

Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to ask about his hand, but was suddenly held down by Zhu Han.

Zhu Han immediately gave Zhu Yuanzhang a wink, signaling him not to ask any more questions.

The village chief was obviously unwilling to tell them the truth of the matter and could only let them investigate on their own.

"Village chief, let's leave quickly. Where is the granary? We need to see the food."

Zhu Han changed the topic and the village chief immediately found the steps.

"We'll be there soon. Don't worry, I won't treat you badly with food. You can take her away today even if you want, but I also want to see if you have this ability."
