Chapter 278 The moth that lost its privileges

Hua Kai came to the main courtyard and ordered everyone in the Hua family to move into the general's mansion first. There was no problem for a thousand people to live here.

The servants reported that a large amount of grain was found in the warehouse of the general's mansion. They clashed with the soldiers guarding the granary and killed more than ten of them.

Hua Kai was stunned by the scene when he came to the warehouse. There were countless wheat, rice, and various coarse grains in the warehouse. It was roughly estimated that there were at least 30,000 stones. These grains were enough for 15,000 people to eat for a year, while the grain shop in Baoyuguan only had 100 kilograms of coarse grains.

At this time, someone reported that a secret room was found in the study. Hua Kai came and found that there were more than 300 taels of gold, more than 80,000 taels of silver, and more than one million bone coins. There were also many other things such as cloth, tea, and sugar. It was admirable that he could be a miser to such an extent.

With so much food and property, Zhang Fei could not take it all away even if he left normally after November. I really don't know why he did this. If Baoyuguan was breached by Donghu or horse bandits during this period, these supplies would only be used to help the enemy!

Hand these things to Yu Jun, these materials are just right for the new Baoyuguan Pass. The members of the Hua family began to lead the slaves to clean the general's mansion. Many people have started to build tents on many open spaces, and the whole general's mansion suddenly became lively.

Zhang Fei brought hundreds of family members and more than 500 soldiers to the parade ground, at a loss. The former general's mansion no longer belonged to them. They all looked at Zhang Fei who was surrounded in the center and waited for his next order.

Zhang Fei's fat body was sweating in such a hot noon. He raised his hand and a servant came over hurriedly.

"General!"

"Go, get me some honey water!" Zhang Fei said.

"General, we are now driven out of the general's mansion, there is no honey water!" The servant looked at Zhang Fei and said.

Zhang Fei sighed. He had no chance to take back the general's mansion. With his life-saving character, he dared not look for Hua Kai again, let alone escape. What he was most distressed about now was the food and gold and silver in the general's mansion. That was all he had gained in the past two years since he took over Baoyuguan Pass.

"Go get me some water, and then get me some food... Buy it with money, don't anger the Hua family!" Zhang Fei thought for a while and said.

The guard was a little reluctant, but he went anyway. He went to a commoner's house and asked for a bowl of water. He wanted to get some food at the other party's house, but the other party didn't wait for him to finish and said directly that there was nothing to eat at home, even if he said he would pay.

In the end, the guard had to go back and watch Zhang Fei drink water with a rumbling stomach. Everyone suddenly felt extremely hungry. Zhang Fei saw this and asked everyone to find food. If they found it and sent it back, he would double the reward. However, until the afternoon, only half of the more than 500 soldiers who were looking for food came back.

Zhang Fei increased the reward, and then someone sent him a piece of horse meat. He couldn't swallow it after just two bites. All the shops in Baoyuguan were controlled by the Hua family, and the common people only had these to eat. Zhang Fei began to regret that he exploited the common people too much, otherwise he would not be suffering so much now.

In the afternoon, a thousand soldiers from the Hua family arrived, led by Hua Zihuan. The construction of Gaoliu City is on the right track, and there are many special servants of the Hua family who can see that there will be no problems.

When Hua Zihuan arrived at Baoyuguan, he arranged for soldiers to take turns to guard and patrol the checkpoints. He also brought some professional craftsmen from the Lu family. Now that the planning and construction drawings of Baoyuguan have not been released, they can build more temporary houses and repair the city walls, otherwise so many people will be sad this winter.

After staying in Baoyuguan for 12 days, Hua Kai completed the trial for a total of 120 people. Sometimes surprises come so inadvertently. After completing the fourth [Will Training Secret Realm], a member of the Hua family light cavalry at the 8th level of Qi training was directly promoted to Xiantian and became the sixth member of the Hua family Xiantian realm. Another 34 members of the Qi dynamic realm broke through to the Qi training realm. The number of members of the Hua family light cavalry in the Qi training realm has reached 160, of which more than 90 are in the late Qi training realm.

This light cavalry member named Hua Peng went directly from a squad leader to a core member of the Hua family, and the entire cavalry team took him as an example to practice more actively.

On this day, Hua Kai successfully upgraded another horse. Now that the number of people in the Hua family is increasing, more and more BMWs are needed. Relying solely on the family's own training speed is too slow. If you want to improve the combat strength of the light cavalry, you must improve the quality of the horses, because the light cavalry relies on flexibility.

Ask someone to bring the horses back to the stables, and Hua Kai left the general's mansion.

More than ten tents were built on the parade ground in the distance. More than ten days ago, there were more than a hundred tents here. Zhang Fei sat at the door of a tent and looked at the street in the distance. A servant took the money he gave to buy food and disappeared.

In the past few days, the Hua family organized the people of Baoyuguan to repair houses. His more than 500 soldiers have almost left, and even several newly-acquired concubines have escaped. They all went to help the Hua family build new houses. 10 bone coins a day and a meal are provided. Zhang Fei felt distressed when he saw this.

All these food and money belong to him. He was driven out when he left the general's mansion. He only had a small amount of gold on him, but he had used up most of it in the past ten days.

Seeing Hua Kai coming out of the general's mansion, Zhang Fei, who had lost weight, suddenly jumped up. He smiled and walked towards Hua Kai.

"Master Hua!" Zhang Fei walked to Hua Kai and said flatteringly.

"This... General Zhang, have you lost weight?" Hua Kai was also shocked when he saw Zhang Fei's appearance.

"Hehe, Master Hua! I was bewildered and disrespectful to Master Hua, and even called Master Hua a brother. My food and money have been handed over to you, and now the soldiers and family members have almost left. Master Hua, just let me go! When I arrive in Yan State, I will definitely speak well of you and will not let Jicheng cause you trouble. I swear!" Zhang Fei looked at Hua Kai with hope and said.

"General Zhang is in a serious condition! I think he has been doing well these days. He looks like a decent figure now. Since the King of Yan said that the handover should be completed in November, how can General Zhang give up halfway? I will definitely let General Zhang leave in November." Hua Kai was about to leave, but Zhang Fei was anxious.

"Master Hua, please let me go! I really can't stay in this Leopard Jade Pass! No people are willing to sell things to me. My family ate two coarse grain steamed buns yesterday. If I don't leave, I will die!" Zhang Fei cried.

"Haha! No one will starve to death in this Leopard Jade Pass under the management of the Hua family. As long as you are willing, there are opportunities to fill your stomach everywhere... Besides, you still have so many servants and maids!" Hua Kai said, looking at Zhang Fei's family in the distance.

Hua Kai left, and Zhang Fei returned to the tent. He decided to find something to eat by himself. He spent several taels of gold in more than ten days, but only bought less than one tael of silver for food. If he continued like this, he would really starve to death without money.

After instructing his wives, concubines and servants, Zhang Fei brought two servants to the door of the restaurant on the street. He swallowed his saliva when he smelled the aroma of the restaurant's cooking. The restaurant had a new chef in the past few days, and the business was much better than before. Zhang Fei walked in and saw that all the people sitting here were servants of the Hua family.

He came to the table in the corner with some timidity, and was relieved when he saw that no one drove him away.

"What would you like to eat, sir? We have braised beef bones, roasted lamb legs, sweet and sour pork tenderloin..." The waiter introduced him with a smile and handed the menu to Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei was shocked by the prices of the dishes on it. After buying a tent and bedding, his money was stolen by the servants again. Now he only had less than two gold.

"Just give me these two dishes, and a big bucket of rice!" Zhang Fei ordered two of the cheapest dishes and said to the waiter. He was happy in his heart, which showed that the Hua family did not prevent him from living a normal life in Baoyuguan.

Zhang Fei felt upset when he thought of this. Those guards who had lost their conscience had been deceiving him and cheating him out of his money for more than ten days. But he felt relieved when he thought about it again. Even if he found the other party now, he couldn't do anything to those guards. Although he was in Kaiyuan Realm, he might not be able to beat even the early stage of Quenching Realm if they really fought.

After eating a big bucket of rice happily, Zhang Fei never thought that rice could be so delicious. Looking at the two dishes that he had eaten up, Zhang Fei wanted to bring two dishes back for his waiting wives and concubines, but in the end he only bought a bucket of rice.

When he returned to the battlefield, he saw his wife, a concubine and several children waiting for him in the open space. The tent next to them had been dismantled and taken away, and all the servants and maids had left.

"What a bunch of wolves and dogs. When they leave here in November, I will make them look bad one by one." Zhang Fei said angrily while watching his family members eating rice in big mouthfuls.

"They all went to work at the Hua family's construction site. Even if we leave here after November, can you still come back to oppose the Hua family? These people will definitely not leave Gaoliu County again!" His wife said angrily.

Zhang Fei sighed deeply. He became nothing after losing the privileges of the family. He regretted not listening to Hua Kai at that time. If he had listened to him and brought his family out early, the food and gold and silver in the general's mansion would be enough for him to squander in Baoyuguan.

After lunch, he didn't dare to let his family stay in the training ground. He didn't know who of the servants who left would hate him. He took his family to find a small courtyard in Baoyuguan. The courtyard was not big and had only three earthen houses, but fortunately it was cheap. He bought the courtyard with 1 gold and 80 silver.

At night, everyone cleaned the house and everyone was very happy. They seemed to be more satisfied with having such a small courtyard than living in the general's mansion, but another problem was in front of them. They had no money!

"Eat a full lunch, and bear with it at night! Tomorrow I'll go see if the Hua family needs any more workers. Yesterday I saw Xiaolan passing by the parade ground, I'll go ask her!" Zhang Fei's wife said. Xiaolan was Zhang Fei's wife's personal maid. She took the five taels of silver to buy them food and never came back. Zhang Fei didn't expect that one day he would ask for help from a defected maid, but what could they do now?
