Chapter 260: Opening a rice shop opposite the corrupt merchant (2/2)



The guards at the city gate looked at them carefully and let them enter the city.

There aren't many merchants coming and going in the city. What you see are some small shops selling steamed buns and wontons.

There was no shop selling gold and silver jewelry, rouge and powder.

Because the people are poor, few can afford to pay.

But there are also many wealthy families, all of whom are dignitaries who fled to other countries during the Dayong Dynasty.

These people disliked the Marquis and were in cahoots with Prime Minister Wan, so they brought their families to Longyuan State and continued to exploit the people there.

The address selected by Chu Chenyin is just opposite the former residence of Lord Shi.

Mr. Shi Chu Chenyin had only been seen in the original owner's memory.

It seemed that he was just a fifth-rank official at the time, and in order to curry favor with Lord Chu, he often went to the Chu Mansion.

When she was still a concubine, Lord Shi wanted to take her back to be a concubine for his stupid son.

When Chu Chenyin heard Fu Yanting mention him, he couldn't help but sigh: "Good people don't live long, and disasters last for thousands of years. So many people died in natural disasters, but these evil people didn't die."

Fu Yanting raised his eyes and looked at the plaque on the door of the Shi Mansion. "It is because I stepped on human lives that I survived."

Chu Chenyin looked at the plaque on the door together, "So what? We have to pay it back anyway."

She now gradually began to doubt that the history book of the Dayong Dynasty that she had first read was a random arrangement.

A lot of things just don't add up.

Chu Chenyin turned around and looked at his shop: "Let's go, let's spread the rice."

Before they entered the city, they had secretly sent someone to set up the shop.

The Shi family across the street had 200 members, but now only a dozen or so are left. Mr. Shi, his silly son, and Mrs. Shi are all still alive.

They bought two plots of land in the nearby western suburbs, hired four or five farmers to farm the land, and then sold the rice at a high price.

Lord Shi has a black heart, whether he is an official or a businessman.

Chu Chenyin now opened a rice shop across from them, and their good days are probably coming to an end. This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
