Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System

"There are still so many elderly and children here, how can I snatch food from them?"

"It's better to let them eat some horse meat, which is more nutritious and helps them recover their strength quickly."

As soon as Lin Yi said this, the people nearby immediately became very moved.

Even some old ladies started wiping their tears secretly, praying in their hearts for Lin Yi, such a divine figure sent by heaven appearing before them was a blessing earned over generations.

At this time, the food in the two large pots had been thoroughly cooked, and both pots were moved off the fire.

Yet, because of Lin Yi's earlier words, the surrounding people were even more adamant not to let him eat the seafood, insisting on serving him a large bowl of horse meat.

Especially Lao Liu, the fool, who used his large stainless steel bowl to give Lin Yi a full bowl of horse meat.

Looking at the dry horse meat, Lin Yi was almost in tears, helplessly waving his hand, he forced the bowl of horse meat back into Lao Liu's hands, his face turning serious:

"Lao Liu! Now you're ignoring my words, aren't you? There are so many elderly and children here, give the meat to them!"

Lao Liu was startled by this sudden reprimand, fearful but gritting his teeth, persistently placing the horse meat in front of Lin Yi, then turning to leave.

In his mind, if Young Master Lin was willing to make such a concession for them, how could they accept this bowl of horse meat?

He thought his actions would surely be recognized by everyone.

Sure enough, when he turned to look at the crowd, he saw trust and approval in their eyes.

It seemed his actions directly represented everyone's will, genuinely gaining their agreement.

Especially the women, children, and elderly who were previously locked in a stable by Yan Soldiers; they looked at Lin Yi as their savior, as an immortal.

Regarding food, they would rather not eat, rather endure hunger, but certainly save the food for Lin Yi.

At this point, how could they let the Immortal Young Master eat that garbage-like seafood?

Even if heaven came today, even if Young Master Lin said otherwise, they wouldn't let him eat the seafood, but keep the horse meat for him.

Seeing this situation, Lin Yi felt even more helpless, so he simply told the truth, speaking with a bitter smile to everyone:

"Hey, everyone might have misunderstood, we often eat this horse meat, but seafood like this is rare for us.

On ordinary days, being able to eat some is quite nice, thus I prefer this seafood, so let the horse meat be for everyone, I'll just eat this."

As he said this, Lin Yi pointed at the large bowl of red lobster and crab.

But, regarding his words, the people just looked at him as if he was an idiot.

Meanwhile, they thought in their hearts, you can say whatever you want, we won't believe you no matter what.

How could anyone prefer eating this seafood?

That stuff smelled terrible and was not filling at all, they would not eat it unless absolutely necessary.

And it wasn't like fish; if it were fish, they might eat some, but for things like this, few people actually liked eating them.

Meanwhile, they secretly thought Lin Yi made up this story only to make them eat horse meat.

But Lin Yi didn't realize that these people were not fools, they could discern right from wrong.

Even if you make up a story, it should be a bit more reasonable.

Seeing their expressions, Lin Yi knew today his words were pointless, no matter what he said, they wouldn't believe him.

Whether he was telling the truth or saying something for their sake, they saw him as a living immortal.

No matter what, he was thinking of them, acting for their good, no matter what he said, he couldn't make himself eat what they saw as garbage seafood.

However, facing the large bowl of horse meat, Lin Yi had no interest, it didn't excite his appetite at all.

Besides, most importantly, this seafood looked like garbage to these people.

Precisely because of this, Lin Yi thought, since they dislike it and he likes it, why not eat it himself and leave them the horse meat they like?

This way, both sides benefit greatly, isn't it better?

Why should he eat unwanted horse meat while others eat unwanted seafood?

Thus, none benefits, isn't this asking for trouble?

If this seafood was food that they liked, even if he was craving it, he wouldn't fight them for it.

After all, these people were suffering, Lin Yi wouldn't fight them for food.

Thinking this through, Lin Yi resolved to eat seafood today no matter what.

Yet, despite his explanations, they refused.

So, Lin Yi simply hardened his expression, coldly sweeping his gaze over everyone present.

The sudden cold gaze startled the crowd, causing panic in their hearts, unsure of where they had upset the Immortal Young Master.

Especially Lao Liu, whose expression became uneasy, his gaze somewhat evasive when looking at Lin Yi.

There was no choice, when Lin Yi was angry, that cold look was truly unbearable for them. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Someone might say, how can one's gaze be so fierce?

Of course, all of this was because they regarded Lin Yi as a true immortal, utterly fearful inside.
