This place clearly looks very prosperous and has many rare and exotic items.
But they only had to pay 100 shi of tax grain each year!
The magistrate of Qihuai County, together with the prefect of Yingzhou, colluded to falsify documents, deceiving their superiors and subordinates; their audacity was simply outrageous.
The guards have already returned to the capital to report the news, and it will only take two days for someone to escort the emperor back to the palace.
She plans to stay in Qihuai County for the next couple of days and take a good look around.
What shady business is Tang Huan up to?!
After finishing their meal, the two went out again.
I hadn't gone far when I heard a waiter standing at the door shouting loudly.
"You won't lose out for two coins, you won't be cheated for two coins. All goods are two coins each. Pick and choose as you like. Come and take a look."
The plaque above reads five large characters: Two-Cash Shop.
Lin Wan'er spat, "It's definitely a scam again. How could everything cost two coins?"
Wu Lanxi didn't believe it either, but couldn't resist her curiosity and went inside.
I was surprised to find that the store had a lot of customers, but even more products.
From pots and pans to towels and rags, and even bamboo baskets and wooden basins, everything you need for daily life is available.

Lin Wan'er suddenly had an urge to go on a crazy shopping spree.
It's only two coins anyway. She can spend one tael of silver to buy five hundred items, take them back to the capital to sell, and easily make dozens of taels of silver.
Even if you're not doing it to make money, it's a presentable gift.
With that thought in mind, she met Wu Lanxi's disdainful gaze and reluctantly picked up the basket to start shopping.
But after she had only chosen a few items, a waiter came to remind her.
"Sir, are you buying goods here? Are you from out of town? Don't blame me for not warning you beforehand, unless foreign merchants are trading with Lord Tang personally, all goods they want to take out of Qihuai County will have to pay a hundred times the customs duty."
