What does fifty times mean!
The old coarse grains that used to cost 2 wen per pound now cost 100 wen!
Pork originally cost 25 wen per pound, but now it costs 1,250 wen!
How many people can afford such expensive food?
Anyway, the villagers of Taohua Village can’t afford it!
No, now all the grain shops in Qingzhou have no grain to sell!
Even if you can afford it, you can’t buy it!
The people of Qingzhou have not been able to buy food for two days.
Su Yunhai had a heavy face. He bought only 20 kilograms of salt and returned to the restaurant.
Shen Shuli was already awake, and when she saw her parents walking past the door, she quickly chased after them.
...
...
"Mom and Dad, why do you look like that?"
Shen Shuli didn't know what happened to her parents, and her face looked so heavy.
Su Yunhai did not hide anything and told everyone about the terrifying food prices in the city.
Shen Shuli was silent for a while, and then she explained to her parents the reasons behind the skyrocketing food prices.
"It must be that the Lin family has monopolized all the grain in Qingzhou, causing grain merchants to be unable to replenish grain in a short period of time, which is why the grain prices in the city are so distorted."
"The Lin family is really despicable! They don't even care about the lives of the people in the state!"
"What's even more abominable is that this method was actually taught to the Lin family by that girl Wanwan!"
"What kind of vicious daughter have I raised!"
Su Yunhai and Shen Yuehua gnashed their teeth in resentment!
They really regretted teaching Lin Wanwan these ideas that were ahead of their time.
Originally, the two just wanted their daughter to have a better ability to survive in this ancient world.
After all, in the ancient feudal ideology, women had the most difficult life.
They just want their daughter to live an easier life.
Who would have thought that Wanwan was not their daughter!
"Mom and Dad, don't be angry. We can't control others. We can only take care of ourselves."
Shen Shuli sighed and continued to talk about her plan.
"I plan to go to the place where the Lin family hides their grain, move all their grain away, and then sell the grain to the people in the city at a low price in the name of a merchant. I will save as many people as I can."
Su Yunhai and Shen Yuehua's eyes lit up and they raised their hands in agreement.
"My girl, let's do it this way. I agree!" Su Yunhai immediately relaxed his brows and smiled with satisfaction.
As expected of his daughter, she has a big vision!
"I agree too! But we don't have much time. We have to set off tomorrow. Will we be too late?" Shen Yuehua said worriedly.
"Well, it might be too late." Shen Shuli also felt that time was a bit tight.
"I'll go take the food first and then think of another way." Shen Shuli said.
"Okay, be careful! Today people are saying that the Lin family's house has been emptied by thieves again, and the soldiers are investigating closely." Shen Yuehua looked at her daughter teasingly and reminded her with a smile.
Shen Shuli touched her nose awkwardly, “Hehehe, I’ll leave first.”
South city gate.
There was still a large group of people queuing up at the city gate to leave the city.
There have been too many people fleeing famine stranded in the city in recent days, but the government cannot block everyone outside the gate and prevent them from passing.
All disaster victims entering the city were given only one day to purchase supplies and leave immediately.
Shen Shuli didn't want to waste time, so she took advantage of her small stature and went straight to the front to cut in line.
In order to calm the anger of the people behind her, Shen Shuli smiled and grabbed a handful of copper coins and stuffed them into the hands of the old woman.
The old woman immediately accepted it with a smile and happily let Shen Shuli cut in line.
After Shen Shuli successfully left the city, she immediately pulled out a horse from the space and galloped quickly towards Linyuan.
Half an hour later.
Shen Shuli stood outside the gate of Linyuan.
The forest garden was heavily guarded, with many armored guards guarding the gate and walls.
It can be seen that there must be valuable food hidden here!
Shen Shuli's eyes radiated a burning light as she circled the wall from a distance.
Finally found a weak point in defense.
This is the most remote place in the forest garden, and there are only four guards guarding it.
In order not to attract the attention of the nearby guards, Shen Shuli took out the anesthetic needle and shot the four people from a distance.
Seeing all four people fall down, Shen Shuli immediately took out a ladder from the space and climbed over the wall.
The defense inside the Lin Garden was also tight, which showed how much importance the Lin family attached to this batch of grain.
Shen Shuli could only slowly look for opportunities to carefully deal with these Lin Mansion guards.
There were not many anesthetic needles stored in the space, and Shen Shuli was reluctant to waste them here, so she had to find another way.
Just when she was getting anxious, Shen Shuli saw a maid slowly coming over with something in her arms.
Shen Shuli's eyes lit up immediately. She knocked the maid unconscious on her way, changed into the maid's clothes, and walked in every corner of Linyuan with a swagger.
The person in charge of guarding the grain in Lin Yuan was Lin Wufeng's second son, Lin Jingxuan.
Lin Jingxuan has loved martial arts since he was a child, and he is the best among the six brothers in the Lin family.
It was within Shen Shuli's expectation that he would guard the forest garden.
Lin Jingxuan was still practicing swordplay in the yard at this moment. The sound of the sword dancing was clanging and the momentum was extraordinary.
Shen Shuli only glanced at him and left immediately, continuing to look for the whereabouts of the granary.
Although the original owner came to Linyuan to escape the summer heat every year, she really didn't know where in Linyuan could store so much food.
Having wasted a lot of time, Shen Shuli became a little annoyed and came up with a plan.
She immediately set fire to the warehouse closest to the hospital.
The weather was dry and the fire quickly spread throughout the building.
"Oh no! There's a fire! Help come!"
When the servants saw the billowing smoke, they immediately ran out in fear and called for help.
Soon, the fire alarmed all the private soldiers and Lin Jingxuan who were guarding the place.
Lin Jingxuan knew that there was a lot of food hidden in the Lin Garden, and this food was very important to the entire Lin family.
His face changed and he immediately led his men towards the fire.
Seeing that it was just a small warehouse, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Worried that there was a fire hazard in that place, he quickly took people away to check.
Shen Shuli followed Lin Jingxuan quietly and soon arrived at the large granary that she had been unable to find.
"So it's hidden here." Shen Shuli suddenly realized.
This is a garden with the entrance inside a rockery.
There was a dark room under the rockery. When Lin Jingxuan led people in, the door of the dark room had been closed.
Of course Shen Shuli couldn't just follow in like this, she would definitely run into these people.
She waited patiently outside, and soon, the person inside came out.
She immediately threw a sleeping pill at the entrance of the rockery.
Lin Jingxuan and six guards who had just walked out inhaled the drug without any preparation and all fainted after a few breaths.
Shen Shuli gently kicked Lin Jingxuan a few times, and seeing that he was unconscious, she immediately opened the secret passage and walked down.
A quarter of an hour later, Shen Shuli walked out with a satisfied look on her face.
She glanced at Lin Jingxuan who was still lying unconscious on the ground, and left with mixed feelings.
When the original owner was in the Lin Mansion, Lin Wufeng's sons were very kind to her.
But that’s all in the past.
At the poetry meeting that day, the original owner's second brother and fifth brother were present.
They just watched Mrs. Lin slap the original owner, and no one came out to stop it.
The original owner desperately asked the two for help, but they all turned a blind eye and deliberately turned around to look elsewhere, not looking at the original owner.
Although she is not the biological daughter of the Lin family, is it possible that the relationship they have had for thirteen years is all fake?
