Chapter 175: Flip the Table!
Leng Lanzhi was almost hit by the woman, but fortunately, Gu Zhan pulled her, and she dodged in time.
The man's strength was so great that she buried half of her body in the man's chest.
It's just that at this moment, no one has the heart to think about something out of place.
Leng Lanzhi quickly withdrew from the man's chest, bent down and helped the woman: "Are you okay?" ”
The woman was pushed out of the crowd and fell to the ground without crying, but when she heard these words of concern, she couldn't help it, and tears fell down her eyes.
She brushed away Leng Lanzhi's hand, rushed back to the stall selling grain, and knelt down: "Please, be cheaper!" 100 wen a pound of rice, 50 wen a pound of brown rice, I really can't afford to eat! ”
Leng Lanzhi's face sank.
A pound of rice?
Fifty wen a pound of brown rice?
Although she had never bought or sold grain, she knew the price of it.
After all, when she was in Shengjing not long ago, she had already taken the lead in controlling the quantity and price, and knew that under normal circumstances, polished rice was five cents a catty, and brown rice was two cents a catty.
Even with the idea of a bad harvest, polished rice is only about ten pounds.
Now it's just a heavy snowfall, and these profiteers have increased the price of grain dozens of times!
She looked at the stall selling clothes again, and saw that the so-called clothes were not winter clothes, but some summer clothes, which were very thin, and even if they wore five or six pieces, they might not be able to withstand the cold.
But there is no way, under the premise that there is no winter clothes in the city, these summer clothes are the best clothes, so you can wear a few more to ensure that you will not freeze to death.
And a linen summer coat with a very ordinary style and not good workmanship was sold for a high price of 200 Wen!
Although Leng Lanzhi has no concept of the price of clothes, he also knows that a summer dress that is not good in all aspects is obviously abnormal and hundreds of times more expensive than normal.
"These people are setting up stalls at the gate of the city, Wu Shangshu didn't see it?"
Gu Zhan was silent for a moment before he said, "Probably...... These people are all local snakes, and they know how to avoid their edge, when Wu Shangshu entered the city, these people pushed down the price of grain, and Wu Shangshu didn't find it tired for a while. ”
This is the most reliable guess.
Leng Lanzhi was furious.
These land snakes!
Sooner or later, their heads will be cut off!
Gu Zhan asked, "What is the princess going to do next?" ”
Leng Lanzhi narrowed his eyes: "Go find Li Changlin." ”
Li Changlin was the county magistrate who asked her for help by writing a pleat to ask her for help when the previous county guard of Tianhai City was corrupt and tyrannical.
After the previous county guard was beheaded, Leng Lanzhi wrote to his father, and Li Changlin brought it up.
Judging from the last incident, this Li Changlin can be regarded as a good official who is the master of the people.
Moreover, she had already asked the princess to give Lin Changlin an order to take precautions, and it stands to reason that he shouldn't be unable to borrow the order.
Why is there such a mess in the handling of disaster relief?
"Okay."
Before leaving, Leng Lanzhi looked at the long queue in front of the two stalls, and said with a frown: "Tell these people that there will be cheap food and winter clothes delivered soon, so that they don't spend money in vain." ”
Gu Zhan didn't say a word, but showed his inner inside and repeated Leng Lanzhi's words.
The people who heard this were all stunned, and after reacting, everyone was overjoyed.
Who wants to pay a high price if they can buy affordable food and winter clothes!?
In a short time, the people in front of the two stalls scattered as birds and beasts.
"Who the would dare to ruin our Sea Gang's business?!"
The thugs in charge of guarding the stall were immediately furious.
However, when they tried to find the culprit, they found that there was any suspicious person in the field.
Leng Lanzhi and the others first found an inn to stay temporarily, although Leng Lanzhi was anxious, he also knew that now was not the best time to find Li Changlin.
Wu Shangshu had just entered the city, and Li Changlin was definitely entertaining him.
"Miss, you've been on the road for a day, can you rest first? I'll tell you when it's over there. ”
Gu Zhan asked Xiao Er to prepare hot water, and his eyes under the mask were full of distress.
The princess is a golden branch and jade leaf, she has never suffered since she was a child, but she has never slept well when she left Beijing this time, and she is also busy during the day.
In just a few days, she has lost a lot of weight.
Leng Lanzhi let out a "hmm".
Gu Zhan retreated and carefully closed the door.
The moment the door was closed, he saw her bend down and gently soften her ankles, and the distress in his eyes was even worse.
Suddenly, the distress turned into coldness.
Those cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods actually caused her to be tired from running around......
When he pulls them out, he'll peel them off!
Leng Lanzhi plugged in the door bolt before he dared to take off his shoes and socks.
Although her shoes are specially made, even in the northern winter, she can't freeze her feet, but today she walked in the snow for a long time, and the ice and snow melted and wet the upper of her shoes.
Shoes that get wet don't keep them warm.
At the end of the day, her feet were numb from the cold.
But in front of Gu Zhan, she was embarrassed to say, so she could only endure it.
At this time, both of her feet were swollen and itchy from the cold, and there was a heat that seemed to come out of the cracks in her bones, and no matter how much she scratched it, it would not dissipate.
Forcibly enduring the discomfort of his feet, Leng Lanzhi finished washing, wiped his hair half-dry, and called the shopkeeper to clean the bath bucket.
Gu Zhan followed into the house, and when he inadvertently glanced at it, he found an extra pair of shoes under the bed.
At first, he didn't think much about it, after all, Leng Lanzhi was a princess, and it was normal to prepare a few more pairs of shoes when she was out and about.
However, he had excellent eyesight, and soon noticed that the uppers of the shoes were wet, and only then did he realize that the princess had walked in the snow, and on the way they had gotten into a carriage, and there was a charcoal fire in the carriage, which would roast the snow water, but would not dry the uppers so quickly!
So, the princess later walked in the snow and ice in her wet shoes and socks for a day?!
And her feet......
Leng Lanzhi didn't know that the shoes had been seen, after all, she deliberately hid them under the bed.
Although the sheets in this inn are not very long, revealing a little gap under the bed, who would look under someone's bed if they have nothing to do?
She didn't want Gu Zhan to think that she was hypocritical.
After all, whether it was to set an example or come to Tianhai City for disaster relief, it was her own business, Gu Zhan was invited by her to help, he was already very face-saving to come, and she didn't want to cause him other trouble.
Xiao Er cleaned up the bath bucket and retreated, Leng Lanzhi estimated the time, and said to Gu Zhan: "Gu Diansi should also go and rest first, it should be over there when the time comes, and we will go to Li Changlin then." ”
Gu Zhan's eyes moved: "Now that I have arrived in Tianhai City, it is better for Miss not to call me Diansi." ”
Leng Lan was stunned.
When I think about it, I think so.
Those people couldn't find her anywhere, and maybe they would come to Tianhai City to look for her, in case they missed the title.
So he nodded slightly: "Okay, Ah Zhan." ”
Gu Zhan smiled slightly.
Although the mask covered his big slap face, his silhouette was really excellent, his beautiful lips were shaped like flower petals, and his lips were red and white when he smiled, like peach blossoms blooming in spring.
Leng Lanzhi looked away.
After Gu Zhan left, Leng Lanzhi waited for a while, and was sure that Gu Zhan would not come out for the time being, so he opened the door and called Xiao Er: "Please go and buy me a bottle of frostbite cream." ”
At that time, as soon as Gu Zhan's hand touched the door, he heard a soft voice outside.
He glanced at the frostbite cream in his hand and sighed.
The princess was too polite with him.
