Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew)
Chapter 2540 Walking on Foot

Whitebird Ridge of Skargness was over 870 miles away from Hulwin.

Observing their dusty appearance and worn-out shoes, Matthew sensed something and asked suddenly, "Did you walk here?"

In response to Matthew's question, Danny nodded honestly.

"We took about a month and a half, walking and stopping along the way."

Upon hearing this, Matthew's eyes widened in shock.

Walking over 870 miles on foot? What an incredible feat!

By the looks of it, they were accompanied by others as well.

With this in mind, Matthew inquired further.

"Why did you do that? In theory, Skargness has abundant agricultural production and a well-developed livestock industry. Why did you come to Hulwin?"

When this matter was brought up, Danny's initially simple and honest face suddenly turned fierce.

With anger in his voice, he explained, "It's all because of those leeches. They use the pretext of integration and unified management to reclaim all our fields. Not only do we have to give them thirty percent of the harvest every year, but every household also has to pay a tax based on the number of members, and young men have to pay double. In this situation, we young adults have become a burden to our families. So, we thought of going out to seek a way to survive."

After listening, Matthew nodded in understanding.

"Alright, I now have a general understanding of your situation."

After a while, Danny's companion, who had run out, returned.

To Matthew's surprise, he was followed by hundreds of companions. Their tattered appearance resembled that of so-called refugees.

Matthew asked Danny, "Do you know all these people?"

After seeing Danny nod, he couldn't help but frown.

He wasn't complaining about the large number of people, though.

He could see the reality through this phenomenon. He knew that the more people there were, the more difficult the lives of ordinary people in Skargness had become. It was truly lawless!

Matthew also despised the actions of the local forces, but progress must be made step by step.

The most urgent task was to deal with the situation in Hulwin.

When this place was stabilized, only then could the door to Seraphis Province truly be opened.

When Danny saw Matthew's expression, he suddenly panicked.

"Boss, we don't ask for much salary. Just give us some food, and we'll take care of our accommodation."

Along the way, they had been rejected too many times.

As soon as the companies realized that Danny and the others had escaped from Skargness, they didn't dare to accept these people.

They were completely unwilling to take Danny's people in, especially given their appearance.

If Danny and the others couldn't replace any work, they would go hungry.

Many of them were on the verge of starvation.

At this moment, Matthew snapped out of his thoughts.

He looked at the anxious expression on Danny's face.

Once again, he smiled.

"It's okay; there's no need to worry. Other than you, and you..."

After pointing out a few men, Matthew continued.

"Other than those I've mentioned, I'll take in everyone else."

At that moment, the mentioned people immediately walked forward with displeased expressions.

"Why? Are we not as good as those country bumpkins?"

Seeing this, Matthew smirked.

"It's simply because your intentions are impure. In Hulwin, even a security guard earns more than 200. Moreover, you all know that there is a conflict with the Yarwoods here. Do I need to continue?" Their identities were exposed.

The few people who were still making a fuss suddenly lowered their heads and left.

When Evander saw this, he finally understood why Matthew offered such a low salary.

This seemingly casual act was actually a way to screen them.

They were either desperate or had ulterior motives.

Meanwhile, upon hearing Matthew's decision, the crowd who was with Danny couldn't help but be excited.

Only Danny's expressions kept changing, seemingly filled with inner conflict.
