Chapter 379 More ruthless than bandits
Both Xiao Yanbao and Lan Qiandi were considered fools.
So when Xiao Yanbao shouted to sell rice, no one paid any attention to her.
What on earth do this idiot family want to do? One moment they say they can plant in the summer and harvest in the autumn, and now they are talking about selling rice.
Can you have some sympathy and stop causing trouble here?
Xiao Yanbao shouted for a long time, but no one spoke to him.
Originally, Xiao Yanbao wanted to lure all these people away, not to be fooled, and not to let corrupt officials and profiteers succeed.
"Little princess, we have no shop and no rice. Who would believe you if you shout like this?" Zhang Fu said.
Xiao Yanbao: Selling rice requires a shop, so that’s easy to do. Just set up a shop opposite Xingsheng Rice Shop and open it immediately.
"Zhang Fu, I think the cloth shop across the street is good. Go and buy him and open a rice shop here." Emperor Lan Gan said.
"Emperor...Master, do we really want to sell rice?" Zhang Fu confirmed.
"Of course I'm really selling it, but if I'm not really selling it, are we still going to watch the people being slaughtered?" Emperor Lan Qian said in a deep voice.
Zhang Fu nodded and ran all the way to the Buzhuang opposite to talk.
As luck would have it, this cloth shop happened to be for sale, and the owner was planning to go to another place to join his relatives.
Within a quarter of an hour, Zhang Fu ran back happily.
"Sir, miss, everything is done. Let's replace the plaque and we can open at any time."
Emperor Lan Qian: That's not easy to do with the plaque. He can just write one.
He may not dare to show off other things in front of his daughter, but he is really good at calligraphy.
Xiao Yanbao: No wonder daddy brought Zhang Fu out. He was so quick in doing things!
After a while, the store was closed.
"Yanbao, when do you plan to open?" Emperor Lan asked.
"Now, immediately, immediately." Xiao Yanbao said.
If there is no shop, Xiao Yanbao plans to move out a few houses from Ruyi Bag and build a temporary rice store on the street.
But you don’t need it after you put it on the plate.
After all, a few houses suddenly popping up on the street are quite impressive.
The boss of Buzhuang helped find a wooden board. This was the first time he had seen a store open in such a hurry.
"Guys, can I ask what kind of business you plan to do?"
"It's okay to open rice." Xiao Yanbao said with a smile.
The boss of Buzhuang was startled when he heard that Xiao Yanbao and the others were going to open a rice store.
"Guys, you guys are from out of town, so you don't know the situation here in Lanjin County."
Emperor Lan Gan was already planning to write a plaque with the pen in his hand.
He had already thought of a name, so he called it Yanbao Mihang.
"Why, do you need anyone's permission to sell rice here?" Emperor Lan asked.
The face of the owner of Buzhuang changed. "It's not about getting permission from anyone. This is the only rice store that thrives in Lanjin County. No one else can open a rice store."
Emperor Lan Qian's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.
"The Lanjin County Magistrate and his brother-in-law are bullying the city like this, and no one cares about it?" Zhang Fu asked.
The cloth shop owner sighed and shook his head.
Can't say, can't tell.
"Guys, if you don't sell this shop, I will return the money to you now. You will never be able to open this rice shop."
Emperor Lan Gan smiled faintly and said, "Brother, thank you for your reminder. Our shop is ready and the rice shop is ready to open."
As he spoke, he picked up a pen and wrote the four characters "Yan Bao Mi Xing" on the wooden board.
The handwriting is vigorous and powerful, majestic, like mountains and rivers.
Cloth Shop Boss: These words are so well written. It is obviously an ordinary piece of wood, but writing these words immediately gives the piece of wood vitality.
It's more eye-catching than his elaborate plaque.
It's a pity that this plaque was smashed into pieces after being hung for only two days.
What a pity, what a pity.
"Guys, I can see that you are not ordinary people, but there is a saying that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake, so think twice before you act." The boss of Buzhuang advised again.
Emperor Lan Gan patted the cloth shop owner on the shoulder, "Thanks for reminding me, but a snake is a snake after all. When it encounters a real dragon, its days will come to an end."
The owner of Buzhuang looked at Emperor Lan Qian up and down, sighed, and shook his head.
He persuaded and persuaded, and said what he said, but there was nothing he could do if he didn't listen to the advice.
"Guys, please wish yourselves good luck."
The owner of Buzhuang left without saying a word.
Emperor Lan asked his guards to take down the plaque of Buzhuang and put up the plaque of Mihang.
Xiao Yanbao took a look at the cloth shop. He might have planned to sell it a long time ago, so everything had been packed away.
Now put the food on the table, this is the rice row.
Xiao Yanbao waved his little hand, and the cloth village was immediately filled with all kinds of food.
Emperor Lan Gan: He knew that there must be food in his precious daughter’s cloth bag.
Otherwise she would never talk about selling rice.
Oops, no, my daughter put all the caught locusts into the cloth bag. Will she eat all the food?
Emperor Lan Qian pointed to Xiao Yanbao's wishful thinking bag and said, "Yanbao, will the locusts..."
Xiao Yanbao immediately understood what his father meant.
Smiling eyes curled up and he said: "Don't worry, dad, I have locked those locusts in a small dark room to sleep, and they can't eat any food."
Emperor Lan Qian: This makes him feel relieved.
Zhang Fu and the two guards went outside to hang up the plaque. As soon as they entered the door, they were so frightened that they backed out again. Didn't they go to the wrong place?
He raised his head and confirmed the plaque. It was the plaque they had just hung.
Where did so much food come from in such a short time?
Oh my god, he thought the little princess was going back to the treasury in the capital to transport grain.
Did the little princess load the food from the treasury in advance?
The little princess is really prescient.
He knew that the little princess's cloth bag was a treasure and could hold many, many things.
As for how much it could hold, he couldn't guess.
But if all the grain in the treasury is sold, what will happen to the grain and grass supply over there?
Zhang Fu secretly glanced at the emperor, but the emperor was very calm, and even had a hint of joy on his face.
Yes, he is really not as anxious as the emperor but as anxious as the eunuch.
The emperor isn't even worried. Why is he worrying so blindly?
"Dad, if you write out the prices of all the food and post them outside, we will open for business."
Emperor Lan Gan: He can write, but he doesn’t know what the price of food is.
He has never bought these things.
"Zhang Fu, do you know the price of food?"
Zhang Fu: Thanks to him chatting a little more with the boss of Nabu Village and asking about the previous food prices in Lanjin County.
Today's food prices have risen to hundreds of times what they were before. This is simply more ruthless than bandits.
"According to this cloth shop owner, in Lanjin County, when the weather is good and the weather is good, white rice is fifty cents per dou, corn is thirty cents per dou, and rice bran and wheat bran are only five cents per dou," Zhang Fu said.
Emperor Lan Qian: It has increased a hundred times. Even if Sheng Ming was alive, he would not dare to do this.
Sitting in the court hall all day long, what I heard and what I saw were completely different!
I will have to hang out more with my daughter from now on.
