Jiangnan had been locked down for a month, and the population of Lyuzhou City..... had reached a hundred thousand!
This number, Wu You had gathered himself these days.....
It was the tenth day since Hong Lie had arrived in Lyuzhou, and he still had not seen the mysterious Magistrate of Lyuzhou, yet the situation in Lyuzhou seemed visibly to be getting better and better.
"I say, Old Wu, why the long face all day?"
In a tea stall near the city gate, Hong Lie, cradling a big bowl of deep-fried meat worms that glowed golden, ate with relish, appearing heartless and liverless, which made Wu You's stomach turn even more.
"General Hong, you see..... the population of Lyuzhou City keeps growing."
"Hmm..... indeed," Hong Lie nodded: "The past two days, the queue for meals has been longer than before, definitely more people."
Wu You's face twitched, looking at Hong Lie in a low tone: "Haven't you noticed something is amiss, General?"
