Most business people are talkative, and Feng Ling bought five big pancakes at once, and the aunt selling pancakes was instantly delighted.
She started talking non-stop, and she was quite hygienic. She knew to stay away from the pancakes when she spoke, for fear that her saliva would spray on the pancakes and disgust the customers.
"Well, this damn God is determined not to let us live and insists on causing drought. What can we do? My mother's family lives in a village dozens of miles away, and it is indeed much cooler there than in the city.
However, there is still a shortage of water and the crops cannot be grown. I don’t know what is going on.
We are also short of water in our city, but fortunately we have the county magistrate and the masters of Pudu Temple.
They prayed for rain regularly, and life in the city was barely sustainable.
But the crops cannot be kept alive, it's very difficult, and business has declined a lot.
Look at my delicious sweet potato cakes. In the past, they could be sold out in half a day.
Now, it’s almost noon and few of them are sold. Most people are tightening their belts to make ends meet, so who has the spare money to buy these snacks?
Many wealthy people have moved away to escape the disaster. Xingcheng County is getting worse and worse, and no one knows when it will end.
However, I heard that officials from the capital have been sent down to resolve the issue. The officials have brought relief grain to help the people get through the current difficulties.
Then slowly find a way to solve the source problem.
I don’t know if this natural disaster can be solved, but the emperor of our Sheng An Dynasty is still good and cares about the people, don’t you think so, girl?”
The aunt's tone at the end was both arrogant and mysterious, as if she had a relationship with the emperor.
Feng Ling's eyes lit up and she nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes, our emperor is wise and brave, and he cares about the people. He is a wise ruler!
Auntie, you are really knowledgeable and well-informed.
She was happier when her man was praised than when Feng Ling herself was praised.
Huo Jinxing rubbed his forehead for a while, feeling angry and amused at the same time. This woman really loves to watch the fun and no matter how big the event, she doesn't mind.
The aunt was a little proud of Feng Ling's praise, "Well, it's just average.
Who made my great-uncle's eldest brother-in-law's eldest nephew's youngest son work in the government office? "
How could she not be well-informed? She doesn't tell ordinary people about this.
And Feng Ling is the ninety-ninth person who is not an ordinary person.
"That's amazing! It turns out that your relative is an official?" Feng Ling said with admiration.
As expected, when one person succeeds, the whole family will prosper. The relationships in ancient times were very close, and even the most complicated relatives could still be so close.
"You're right, my relative is quite influential in the government office. He often sees the county magistrate and the county magistrate's daughter."
Ordinary people cannot meet such big shots. They always ride in sedan chairs when they go out, and the places they frequent are all wealthy and high-end places.
Little did the aunt know that the two people standing in front of her were one the emperor and the other a snake demon. Are these monsters considered rare?
"Oh my god, is that true? I heard that the county magistrate's daughter is a famous talented woman, and she's also very beautiful."
Feng Ling is said to be a ghost, and she is talking nonsense, but this is the common image of young ladies from official families. She was just looking for a topic to chat with the aunt.
While eating cakes and chatting, if Feng Ling wasn't so casual, the aunt would have thought that this person was also a wealthy fairy, on par with the county magistrate's daughter, right?
When talking about such a big public figure, the auntie was as excited as if she had been injected with chicken blood, and immediately showed off her knowledge and experience.
"Of course not. It is said that the county magistrate's daughter always wins the first prize in the annual plum blossom viewing poetry competition. She is also the most beautiful girl in Xingcheng. What's the word called? She is both talented and beautiful, right?!" The aunt slapped her thigh and praised herself for her culture.
"Right, right, right. Talented and beautiful, as pretty as a fairy." So the magistrate of Xingcheng County is not bad? But the atmosphere in the city doesn't reflect that.
The heat and drought might be due to Kuiba, but the turbid air was very unusual, with the scarlet color of blood and the darkness of evil.
It was the first time that Feng Ling encountered colored air. The closer to the city, the more turbid it became. If it wasn't a problem with a public figure with great influence, what else could it be?
However, ordinary people cannot see it, only people with special abilities can. Therefore, she is interested in the information about the county magistrate and people who have connection with the officials.
"Well, she is absolutely beautiful. It is said that scholars often lose their souls after seeing Miss An. They bump into trees, fall into ponds, fall down...anything can happen.
But those nerds are just dreaming. Miss An has been engaged since she was a child.
My fiancé is the eldest son of the Bai family, the richest grain merchant in Xingcheng. He is extremely wealthy, and Mr. Bai is also the best in academics.
"At such a young age, she's already a Juren. Next year, she'll be able to become an official when she takes the imperial examination in Beijing. Miss An is truly blessed..." This kind of good fortune is out of reach for ordinary people like them, and the aunt can only envy them.
Feng Ling raised the corners of her lips in a playful manner. What a coincidence! Didn't she find the secret? "So rich! Is it that Mr. Bai named Bai Shaoxing?
Is his fiancée Miss An? "Isn't she the original fiancée who took the ginseng from the demon and sold it to the bandits?
"Yes, there is only one major grain merchant in Xingcheng, and Mr. Bai is the only son of the Bai family. When you mention Mr. Bai, people in the city will know that he is the eldest son of the richest family."
In Xingcheng County, Bai Gongzi is the exclusive name of Bai Shaoxing.
Feng Ling was envious. When would she become the richest person? It seemed she still had to do business. For example, she might be able to find Bai Shaoxing to cooperate with her on new grain varieties.
"I'm so envious! Isn't the county magistrate really good at choosing a son-in-law?" Feng Ling was very curious about what kind of person the father was because his daughter was raised with a vicious heart.
