Chapter 2844

These reserves are enough to feed Zhao Chi's territory of nearly 20,000 Taoyuan tribespeople, plus 120,000 slaves, full meals for over three years.

Opening his fingers just a crack would be enough to let Lu Yi and Wei Li eat until they were stuffed.

No need to give them too much for now—after all, they don't have Zhao Chi's kind of granary; giving too much would spoil.

Wait until they've finished eating before giving more.

First, just take out the odd bit of those 5,000 tons and give it to them; of course, the tons of cabbage will still convert back.

Zhao Chi said: "Later, send someone to Taoyuan Town to haul grain—2,500 tons per person, of which 2,200 tons is flour, 200 tons is beef, and another 2,000 tons is cabbage. Send people to come pull it."

Wei Li and Lu Yi seemed not to have understood.

They glanced at each other, seeing shock—and some hesitation—in the other's eyes.

Zhao Chi joked: "What? Not going to listen again?"

Lu Yi and Wei Li shook their heads at the same time.

Lu Yi said: "Zhao Chi, you really don't have to do this… between us it's mutual. I know you're a good person, sincere with everyone else too, but you don't need to give so much one-sidedly."

Wei Li also nodded and said: "Right, you've already given us so much high-quality equipment—we really can't accept the grain. Although I'm not well off in grain, I only need to fight one battle against ordinary enemies to harvest some. We want to follow you, but truly not for these things of yours."
