A bold son-in-law doting on his concubine and destroying his wife?The ashes are scattered!

Chapter 177

"For example, the imperial court stipulates that it cannot be sold at twice the price, but anyone who violates the order will be severely punished. In order to fight against the imperial court, these businesses will choose to close their stores."

Leng Lanzhi was surprised: "Can it still be like this?"

If you think about it carefully, this approach makes sense.

The court doesn't allow grain to be sold at high prices?

Then I simply won’t sell it.

Anyway, there is no other way to buy grain in the city recently. When the food in people's homes is gone and the grain stores in the city are not open, where can they buy it?

what?
Will the imperial court come to rescue the disaster?

How much food can the imperial court get?
After the disaster relief food has been exploited layer by layer, there is not much left that can be delivered to the people, and it still cannot be eaten for a few days.

When the relief food is distributed, the people in the court will leave.

At that time, wouldn't the people in the city still have no food to eat?
It is true that there will definitely be people who are quick-thinking and look for food elsewhere, but that will be a long time later.

During the period when the merchants in the city are fighting against the price limit order, the people will definitely be hungry.

Don’t you want people to go hungry?

OK, then you let go of the price limit order.

Li Changlin looked at Gu Zhan with admiration: "What this gentleman said is absolutely true."

He sighed: "The current situation in the city is the result of the government's failure."

Although the response speed of the imperial court was very fast, after all, it has been a while.

Local chambers of commerce and gangs united to fight against the price limit order. If the government did not compromise, the local people would really starve to death.

Although the government's compromise resulted in skyrocketing food prices, at least the people still had food to eat.

If the government does not compromise, then no one will eat.

"Did you tell Wu Shangshu about this situation?"

Leng Lanzhi frowned and looked at the sky outside the window. He saw that the moonless sky was gloomy and low. If he looked carefully, he could see large clouds gathering together. He didn't know when they would disperse.

Li Changlin said: "Back to the princess, Wu Shangshu feels that since the court's disaster relief food funds have been received, other problems will not be a problem. As long as this period of abnormal temperatures passes and the ice and snow melt, everything will return to normal."

Leng Lan's downcast eyes.

Is the snow melting?
In my memory, there are still two or three months before the ice and snow melt.

"Follow what Wu Shangshu said first." Leng Lanzhi said: "Don't worry about the price of food for the time being. Before the relief food is distributed, those people will not be able to make a splash for the time being. The government will concentrate on the rescue now."

"Yes."

"I live in the Tongfu Inn in the city. If something happens, I can send someone to inform me at any time."

Li Changlin hesitated and said: "Princess, staying in a hotel is not a long-term solution after all, why not live in the Sheriff's Mansion? In this way, it will be convenient for you to arrange, and it will be convenient for the subordinates to report the progress."

Leng Lanzhi frowned, a little undecided, and couldn't help looking at Gu Zhan.

Gu Zhan said: "The most dangerous place is the safest place."

The guys searching for the princess's movements have already searched Tianhai City once, and will not do it again in the short term.

The conditions of the Sheriff's Mansion are definitely better than those of the inn. There are also maids available, so the princess doesn't need to worry about trivial matters.

What Leng Lanzhi was worried about was that someone would come to investigate again. Since Gu Zhan said so, there was no danger.

As for Wu Shangshu, he is a foreigner. Although he also lives in Shangshu's mansion, he will never meet the female family members in the mansion, and she doesn't have to worry about when they will meet.

However, it was definitely too late to make a temporary settlement. Leng Lanzhi made an agreement with Li Changlin, saying that she was the daughter of his distant cousin and came here specially to join her. He would send someone to take her into the house tomorrow.

After agreeing on these things, she and Gu Zhan returned to the inn.

The next day, Leng Lanzhi wanted to go out to see the disaster relief situation in the city, but Gu Zhan walked in holding a pair of shoes: "Princess."

"This is?" Leng Lanzhi looked at the shoes in his hand in surprise.

"This is a shoe made of special materials, and the upper can be waterproof."

Leng Lan was taken aback, feeling a little strange.

I didn't expect this person to be so careful.

But after thinking about it, he is the Dianji of Jinxing Division, a master among the masters who track down clues...

When I think about it this way, I am relieved.

"Thank you Gu Diansi."

Leng Lanzhi was not pretentious, took the shoes, and put them on after Gu Zhan withdrew.

Only by taking care of herself can she not be held back.

Li Changlin's work efficiency was very fast, and before Leng Lanzhi went out, the servants who came to pick her up arrived.

It was an old lady and a maid who came, the old lady called herself Aunt Feng, and the maid called Xiao'er.

When she heard the name "Xiao'er", Leng Lanzhi froze for a moment, and subconsciously looked at the little maid.

I saw that the little maid was only thirteen or fourteen years old, with two very pleasing eyes on her round face, her eyebrows were crooked when she smiled, she didn't look like she had any heart.

"Cousin, Xiao'er was specially sent by the master to take care of you. From now on, Xiao'er will be responsible for your daily life in the house."

Aunt Feng's gaze focused on Leng Lanzhi from time to time, her eyes full of scrutiny.

Leng Lanzhi didn't have much luggage, and one package contained all her things.

In order to conceal their identity, the wrapped cloth looked dusty and completely featureless.

Gu Zhan's luggage is even simpler, much smaller than Leng Lanzhi's package, and it doesn't look like there are many clothes in it.

Looking at the appearance and size of the two people's packages, Aunt Feng's eyes flashed with contempt: "Cousin girl, please."

Gu Zhan frowned, and was about to say something, but Leng Lanzhi waved his hand at him.

Although she is a princess, she is not in the palace now.

To all the women in the Sheriff's Mansion, she was just a wild girl who appeared out of nowhere, and her attitude was completely normal.

No matter how these people suspect her identity, as long as they don't show it in words and don't embarrass her in doing things, she can ignore it.

After all, she is living in someone else's house, and she can't make the house restless because of her as a guest.

The inn is not far from the Sheriff's Mansion, and it doesn't take long to walk, and it doesn't take too long to take a carriage.

Leng Lanzhi thought that Li Changlin had already gone to help the disaster, but before she got out of the car, she heard a familiar voice: "Cousin, get out of the car!"

Outside the carriage, Li Changlin and Mrs. Li Jia were standing side by side. Leng Lanzhi opened the curtain and saw Li Changlin's attentive smile first.

Moving his eyes lightly, he saw a face trying to hide his displeasure.

Leng Lanzhi got out of the carriage with Gu Zhan's help and nodded slightly to Li Changlin: "Cousin."

Looking at Jia Shi again: "Biao sister-in-law."

When Jia Shi saw Leng Lanzhi's face, he froze for a moment, and a look of fear appeared in his eyes.

She ignored Leng Lanzhi, walked to Li Changlin's side and said, "Master, didn't you say that the disaster relief is urgent? Now that my cousin is here, you'd better hurry up and let me greet you."

Li Changlin frowned: "It's urgent, but it's not too late."

Jia Shi bit her lower lip hard.

Leng Lanzhi glanced at Jia Shi's apprehensive expression, feeling a little helpless: "Cousin, cousin is right, disaster relief is more important."
