The Literary Hero of the Republic of China (民国之文豪) [MTL]

Chapter 239

　　This matter is indeed not small, not only a fire broke out, but also people died.

　　Of course, the most important thing is not these, but this fire, which even burned down the factory that produced Xilin!

　　This news has already been known to the workers in the factory. At this moment, the faces of these workers are all ugly.

　　They felt sorry for Huo Ying sincerely.

　　"If we moved faster, wouldn't we be able to put out the fire sooner?"

　　"We should have saved more water."

　　"Because I was afraid of the fire, I didn't pour the water where it should be poured. I really shouldn't."

　　...

　　Most of the workers in Huoying's factory are peasants who have lost their land—the more disaster-stricken the place, the more landlords take advantage of this opportunity to annex land.

　　Since ancient times, farmers will not end well if they lose their land. Huo Ying gave these people a job, and it can even be said that they saved their whole family. They are naturally grateful to Huo Ying, and there are even many people at the moment Wipe away the tears.

　　Seeing all this, Huo Ying felt very complicated. He was actually using these people to make money for himself, but these people were sincere to him.

　　Huo Ying suddenly realized why Mu Qiong liked to help others.

　　Such gratitude is really nice.

　　Huo Ying immediately called the steward, and asked the steward to appease these people, and then asked the workers involved in the firefighting to pay a large amount of shock fee to each of them.

　　After making such a decision, Huo Ying said loudly: "Although Xilin is gone, thanks to everyone, my factory did not catch fire! The factory will resume normal operation in the future, so don't worry!"

　　It's such a time, Huo Ershao still misses us, he is so kind! These workers are more grateful.

　　Although Huo Ying looked very distressed on the surface, he didn't feel it at all in his heart. After all, he knew very well that his actual loss was not great.

　　On the contrary, the delegation that came over today, as well as Yue Chaoying and others, were really distressed, and even patrolled the ruins.

　　And the more they looked, the more they believed that this was the place where Xilin was produced.

　　Among other things, the well-built pools should be used to hold the culture fluid.

　　Some people have already taken out their notebooks and pens and began to draw according to them—bringing these things back to their country may allow scientists in their country to quickly study the mass production method of Xilin.

　　Huo Ying wanted to stop him, but after thinking about it, he gave up. Instead, he put on a show and asked his subordinates to draw these figures in the same way.

　　After explaining everything to be explained, Huo Ying made an excuse to tidy up his appearance and walked to his residence.

　　The steward who set the fire quickly followed.

　　"What happened before?" Huo Ying asked.

　　"Second Young Master, it's like this..." The man immediately told the whole story.

　　Huo Yingdao: "It turned out that Mu Qiong came up with the idea! He has so many evil ideas!" He said that his subordinate did not have such abilities...
