Not only Bai Yonggui found it incredible, but the people behind him were even more excited.
Each and every one of them stopped following Bai Yonggui slowly, and they all strode, even jogging, towards Shen Xiaoyan and the others.
This way, Bai Yonggui fell behind.
It couldn't be said that he was last, because Shen Xiaoyan saw that at the village entrance, more people seemed to be coming.
Judging by the appearance, Bai Yonggui and his group were just the vanguard.
The villagers were about to rush to the table when they were stopped by a line of servants dressed in black.
"What does this mean? Aren't these things for us? What do you want by stopping us now?"
"Exactly, what do you mean?"
"Exactly, if you're reluctant to give them, just say so. What's the point of showing them off?"
Following a few provocative shouts, more people began to clamor loudly, and some even tried to push past the servants to grab what they wanted.
Shen Xiaoyan and the others didn't move at all, standing in place and watching it all.
Bai Yonggui, who was following behind, was also surprised to see this scene, but he didn't immediately step forward to maintain order.
Instead, his forward momentum seemed to slow down even more.
Shen Xiaoyan sneered inwardly at Bai Yonggui's actions.
Truly selfish people, to this point, still wanting to see if they could make a comeback here.
However, he was destined to be disappointed.
Because in the next second, Sima Han stomped on the ground with one foot, leaped into the air, and in the blink of an eye, stood above the food supplies.
The crowd that had been clamoring incessantly, upon seeing this, froze in place as if their movements had been paused.
"Have you had enough?" Sima Han said in a deep voice.
Although Sima Han only spoke in his usual tone, he had secretly used his spiritual power, so his voice became like thunder, exploding in everyone's ears, leaving them stunned for a long time.
Even the group still on the official road clearly heard Sima Han's voice, and their hurried pace also slowed down.
Shen Xiaoyan looked up at Sima Han from below and silently gave him a thumbs-up.
This move was good, it directly stunned these people.
After the crowd quieted down, Sima Han continued, "Everyone, step back."
Whether it was out of fear, these people were truly obedient.
As soon as Sima Han finished speaking, they had already retreated one meter.
Sima Han was clearly very surprised by this result, but he was still very satisfied.
Seeing that there was no hope, Bai Yonggui quickly walked forward and said to the villagers, "I say, you all, how can you just rush up and snatch? Oh, I'm just old and my legs aren't good, so I walked slowly. Otherwise, I would have stopped you."
"Village chief, don't say that, it's all our fault."
"Yes, village chief, it has nothing to do with you. We were just excited when we saw these things."
Listening to the villagers comfort Bai Yonggui with one sentence after another, Shen Xiaoyan felt a wave of nausea.
Could Bai Yonggui pretend any more?
If he pretended any more, Shen Xiaoyan would really vomit.
"Sima Han, you've been living at Zheng Wei's house all along. Although I haven't seen you much, you've lived here for several years. If you have anything to say, say it down here, and we'll talk properly. Standing so high, it's not good if you fall." Bai Yonggui said to Sima Han, looking up.
Sima Han only glanced at him lightly when he heard this, said nothing, and remained standing there.
Seeing that Sima Han ignored him, Bai Yonggui's face became a little unpleasant, but he endured it and said nothing.
At the same time, he told those who were about to speak for him to shut up.
They remained in a stalemate until the large troop behind them arrived.
This group of people was much larger than the group Bai Yonggui had brought earlier, and they lacked the spirit of the previous group.
Each of them had sunken eyes, heavy dark circles, sallow complexions, and looked listless.
Looking at their clothes, they were all sorts of colors, some were spring and autumn clothes, and they were all put on haphazardly.
Mud was still sticking to them, and some of them could no longer tell their original color.
Each of them was hunched over, with their hands clasped together. Although they were standing, they gave the impression of being curled up.
Seeing this situation, Shen Xiaoyan and the others knew that these were the people whose houses had collapsed.
Looking at the people who had been shouting the loudest earlier, although they were not dressed in finery, they all looked normal.
After the disaster victims arrived, they naturally did not move forward, but looked blankly at everything in front of them.
Shen Xiaoyan had an inexplicable feeling. No matter where it was, the people who needed help the most had the lowest sense of presence.
Only those who were clearly doing alright kept popping up, wanting to gain more attention.
Suddenly, Shen Xiaoyan saw the Pan family and the Liang family in the crowd.
The two families also saw Shen Xiaoyan, but did not approach. They just nodded, as if greeting Shen Xiaoyan.
Sima Han scanned the crowd, suppressed his sigh, and said, "Now that everyone is here, we can begin to talk."
After Sima Han's words, there was still silence, and no one asked what was going to be said.
Sima Han ignored their reaction and continued, "I don't know what the village chief told you. I'll explain my plan here."
Upon hearing this, Bai Yonggui's eyes widened. He thought that after he brought the people, Shen Xiaoyan and the others would just distribute the food supplies.
He had never expected Sima Han to explain the plan in front of so many people.
If he had known this earlier, he wouldn't have taken all the credit for himself.
But no matter how much Bai Yonggui regretted it in his heart, he couldn't interrupt Sima Han.
Because if he did, there would only be two outcomes.
First, Sima Han would confront him face-to-face and explain the original situation.
Second, Sima Han would say nothing and leave.
But no matter which outcome, the matter of disaster relief might end up in vain.
And he would be hated by these people in the village. This was still a minor consequence. If these people got excited, they might drown him with their saliva.
Sima Han naturally saw Bai Yonggui's shocked face and sneered inwardly, continuing, "Half of the people in the village have their houses crushed by the heavy snow and cannot live in them. But there are still people whose houses are intact. We have discussed with the village chief that each household whose house is intact will take in at least one homeless family."
