The carriage continued on until it came to a bakery. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Kun Tiliang jumped out of the carriage, and Ms. D pulled her veil and got out of the carriage as well.

The scene in front of the bakery was once again a great disappointment to her. The expected long queue of panic buyers did not exist, except for a few women carrying rattan baskets and leisurely shopping for bread at the counter.

Ms. D walked into the store and saw a woman handing her a few silver coins and food vouchers to the man, who took them and handed her two large bars of freshly baked couscous bread, and finally returned the change.

"Originally, the shopping voucher was used to buy bread with coins...... Ms D muttered to herself.

"Each voucher is marked with a family member, and adults are limited to four pounds of bread per day, and children are halved, so they can basically eat enough, but there is nothing left." Kun Tiliang explained on the side.

"I don't have food stamps, can I buy bread for more money?" Ms. D asked.

When the bakery guy heard her question, he shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands helplessly: "That's not good, ma'am, you just came back from out of town, right?" Ms. Lyubov issued an emergency control decree that all the food shops in the city must be supplied by ticket, and every transaction in every shop is monitored by a lock, even if you are willing to spend ten gold coins on a pound of bread, and the ten gold coins will have to be handed over as a fine when I go to fetch water tomorrow. ”

"Baiou Harbor is even free to trade under the control of the authorities, so what kind of free city-state is it? Why don't food shops band together to strike against the tyranny of the authorities? Ms. D feigned anger.

"I mean, lady, you've probably never been hungry, have you? Otherwise, such self-righteous words would not have been uttered! An old woman in plain clothes next to her took over the conversation angrily, "The other day there was a mess everywhere in the city, those black-hearted profiteers sold bread for gold, and the poor could only starve if they couldn't afford it, and everyone had a fire in their stomachs, and we were complaining in private, if this terrible situation continued, everyone would either starve to death or rise up in rebellion, thanks to our merciful lady lord who came out in time to administer justice and demanded that all shops sell food at a reasonable price, although they had to buy it with food stamps, At least you don't have to worry about starving to death if you can't afford to buy high-priced bread, because of this good governance, thousands of poor people have survived, and I am grateful to our 'Queen of Justice' in my heart. Deep Sea Sesila is on top, and thankfully our lord lady isn't your kind of person! ”

The old woman picked up the bread basket, glared at her with hatred at the end, and turned away angrily.

The bakery guy watched the old man go away, smiled wryly and shook his head.

"You haven't answered my question just now, no one in Baiou Hong Kong, who has a tradition of free trade, dares to come out and say a fair word to criticize the tyranny of Lyubov?" Ms. D asked persistently.

The man looked around, and seeing that no one else was paying attention, he lowered his voice and said to her: "Madam, I am just a little bread seller, and I receive a pitiful salary every day, and if the price of bread is not regulated and the price rises casually, sooner or later I will not be able to afford it!" So I beg your pardon, I'm on the side of the lord on this issue, of course, my boss is on your side, and behind his back there is no less criticism of the purchase restriction order. ”

"It's just cowardly behavior to complain behind your back, and no one will openly resist?"

"Oh, really! For example, the owner of the grain store on the opposite street decided that it was unprofitable to sell grain at a cheap price, and decided to close down in protest, but his shop lost its lockdown protection that day. ”

Ms. D was taken aback. She knew very well how powerful the Mystery Lock of White Gull Harbor was, and if it weren't for Kraken's blessing of the "Miracle Technique" for her at an extremely high price, she would not have been able to trick the Mystery Lock into entering the city safely.

Under normal circumstances, all the buildings in the city are shrouded in a shrouded lock, with a faint silver sheen, which people are so accustomed to that they usually do not feel the existence of the lock, but when a building loses this subtle protective net, it will show a strong contrast with the surrounding buildings, which is particularly eye-catching.

"The news spread like wings that the grain store had lost its lock, and that same night, a group of masked thugs smashed the storefront, broke in and robbed all the flour in the store, and quickly fled." The bakery guy gloated, "The owner of the grain store was so angry that he immediately ran to the police at the security department, but it was useless, the place where the lost lock monitoring was like a blind spot, and it was impossible to record and track the intruder. Even if it is traced according to other criminal clues, it will not be possible to get a result in three or five days, not to mention that the sheriff will not bother to pursue this kind of case at all, and mock the grain store owner to his face for being rich and unkind, and make him half angry, our boss was very happy when he heard about this, if it was not for the grain store to increase the price first, our bread would not have increased in price, and since then our boss has never said bad things about the lord lady again. ”

Ms. D snorted coldly, and then asked him, "The grain store owner just gave in?" ”

The guy shook his head and smiled even more.

"The dead fat man was not reconciled, and hired a group of bodyguards to protect the grain store, but no one dared to grab the grain anymore, but his unlucky days are still to come."

"Oh? What happened next? ”

"The next day, the water supply pipe of the grain store was cut off, and the people at the city hall told the grain store owner that fresh water is a public resource in the city, so priority is given to those shops who are willing to provide necessary services to ensure the survival of his compatriots, and since he has chosen to be selfish, he is no longer qualified to share all the public facilities and resources in the city, and he wants to drink water and find his own way."

Ms. D couldn't help but gasp and muttered, "What a poisonous ploy!" ”

The bakery guy sneered, "The freshwater factory is the lord's private property, whether it is free water supply or paid water supply, it is her freedom, since the grain store owner thinks that he has the right to raise the price of grain at will, and the poor deserve to starve, why should the lord care about his life or death, what's wrong with cutting off his water supply pipe?" ”

Ms. D was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to refute.

The man dusted off his sleeve and said, "More is yet to come!" The owner of the grain store had no water supply for his family, and the employees in the store were also affected by the lack of water to drink, and the men who couldn't stand it simply quit their jobs, and the bodyguards also warned the boss that they would not be able to hold on any longer. ”

"It seems that he can only choose to swallow his anger and bow to those in power." Ms. D said smugly.

"Oh, no! That dead fat man was determined to resist to the end, and openly declared that he would dig his own well! (To be continued.) )
