The rice target for this year was already high, so it's normal for more people to die. It's just a matter of crossing the deceased off the household register. The authorities above don't really care; even if they did, it's just a matter of paying them off.
After making up their minds, Zhang Long and a group of officials quickly reached a decision.
At dawn, over a hundred Cold Resistance Level slaves in the village were the first to move, heading to the rice fields. Zhang Long dispatched five Vice Managers and fifty County Guard soldiers to supervise, while he stayed in the village with the rest, waiting for nightfall.
At night, Liu Zhang, who had proposed the idea, gathered all the Earth-digging Realm members in the village to announce the decision that everyone had to go reap the rice.
The entire village was naturally in an uproar upon hearing the decision.
