Chapter 1722 Verification
King Xiaoyao was furious: "What are you talking about? Hurry up and call your shopkeeper out. I'm afraid you won't be able to take care of it if it's too late."

An old man inside seemed to have heard the noise outside, poked his head out to have a look, and then walked out with big strides: "What's the matter with this guest?"

Xiaoyao Wang raised his head in disdain: "Are you the one who can be the master of the house?"

The old man smiled and nodded: "No matter what you have to say, if the second child can't be the master, naturally there will be a master behind."

King Xiaoyao asked, "How much is a bucket of silver for this grain now?"

The little old man smiled slightly, but his expression was somewhat arrogant: "If it was before the heavy rain, a bucket of grain would be [-] Wen. But after the heavy rain, the price will naturally increase. Now, [-] Wen can buy a bucket."

Xiaoyao Wang's expression turned ugly, and he asked again, "What if I want two thousand dollars?"

The old man said unceremoniously: "If it is two thousand dou, the price will be different, it will cost one tael of silver per dou!"

Xiaoyao Wang laughed back angrily: "You are strange, the more people buy, the lower the price, but the more you buy here, the higher the price."

But the old man put his hand in and said unceremoniously: "This is the price of this store. If you want to buy it, you can go to the queue. If you don't want to buy it, then leave quickly! I am afraid that the rice of this season will not be able to harvest much. After a while, the price will be higher." I'm afraid it will continue to rise. Guest officials can go to the county to ask, and only our grain store can sustain it."

When King Xiaoyao heard this, he didn't want to get entangled with others, and didn't want to scare the snake, so he turned his head and walked out of the shop, still cursing: "I can't even afford a meal these days!"

But the old man said sarcastically in the back: "It looks like a man, and the clothes are not bad, why are you so stingy, you can't afford this little money?"

Xiaoyao Wang pretended not to hear, and then called all his subordinates back to the inn.

The guard beside him was also furious: "I have never seen such an official of the people. This is the prince. Although we know that the price of the grain store is so high, we are foreigners. We want to catch evidence for a while. It's a bit difficult."

Xiang Lingqi said slowly from the side: "So there is no need to rush this matter. Isn't it time for the autumn harvest? It should be soon, and someone from the county government will collect taxes. How much will be collected by then? How much is the difference from before? No matter how old you are, doesn’t the prince know all about it? Isn’t there enough evidence for this?”

King Xiaoyao sighed: "I'm afraid no one will be able to collect this season's tax. Otherwise, those people would not come here in a hurry to buy food."

"Then the prince may have to plan a little more. An official like this usually prepares a ledger. This kind of ledger is naturally well protected. If the prince wants to enter the county government, he has to reveal his identity." Row!"

"Besides, is it possible that all the people in this city are willing to swallow their anger? If the prince can find two witnesses with solid evidence, is he afraid that he will not be able to catch a small county magistrate?"

"The only troublesome thing is that we don't have enough manpower. County magistrates like this are usually local snakes. If we want to stop him first, I'm afraid we will have to resort to some tricks."

King Xiaoyao nodded consciously, and then ordered someone to report to the county magistrate.
