"How could this happen? You can only buy half a dou of rice for a gold coin?"

After listening to Fan Meng's words, Li Shimin realized how chaos is now in the Tang Dynasty.

If I hadn't listened to Li Chengfeng this time, I'm afraid Li Shimin would have thought it would have been.

These 100,000 gold coins are at least enough for the people of the entire Chang'an City to eat for a month?

Unexpectedly, it was difficult to survive even three days of fighting?

It’s not that there is less gold, but that there is less food, which leads to the high price of food and even more expensive than gold.

Li Shimin looked at Fan Meng and said, "Boss, how much did we spend last night?"

"Report to the emperor, the little woman dare not accept your money!"

Fan Meng said respectfully.

Li Shimin waved his sleeves and shouted, "Don't make these useless things for me. I'll ask what the current price is? How much did we spend on the meal we ate last night?"

"Report to the emperor, there are 58 gold coins in total!"

"What? 58 gold?"

Li Shimin was shocked.

I ordered a piece of meat, a few ingredients, and a bucket of rice, and I asked for 58 gold?

What is the difference between this and robbery?

In the past, I couldn’t get enough money for this meal. Now, are the units of measurement of the price calculated in gold?

"well……"

But now it is a special time, and Li Shimin can't say anything, so he can only sigh without any means!

"Your Majesty, the little girl has prepared breakfast for you. Because you are the emperor, you can rest assured that the little girl will not charge any fees for the emperor!"

Fan Meng continued.

Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "I won't eat anymore, I have no appetite! I still have to give the money I should give. You can record it in the account book first, and then I will ask Wei Zheng to settle the bill! Because I have to stay here for a few more days.

!”

"Well, that little girl thanked the emperor!"

...

Soon, after breakfast, Li Shimin called Li Chengfeng, Wei Zheng and others to go to Taixiang Village to see what was going on.

Is it actually happening that people cannibalize?

"Your Majesty, the so-called poor mountains and rivers come from unruly people. The old minister thinks, you should take the guards together to set off. The dragon body is important!"

Wei Zheng spoke on Chang'an Street.

But Li Shimin shook his head and said, "I am visiting in a private outfit today. Do you know what a private outfit is? That is, pretend to be a civilian, integrate into the lives of civilians, and feel the real state of people's livelihood! If you call the guards, you can go to the escort army to get the real life of the people!

, what's the point?"

"This is the emperor, the old minister is talking too much!"

But in fact, Wei Zheng was also thinking about Li Shimin.

What if the troublemakers see that Li Shimin and others are white and fat, and they are so hungry that they eat them directly?

I have to say that Wei Zheng’s imagination is still very rich.

...

"Feng'er, what do you think about the rumors that people cannibalize people in Taixiang Village?"

Li Shimin threw this heavy problem to Li Chengfeng.

Li Chengfeng said: "I think that when a person is extremely hungry, has a strong desire to survive, and lacks food, he will really eat people!"

"Um?"

"Ding, the fear from Li Shimin, the naughty value is 100!"

"Ding, fear from Wei Zheng, naughty value is 90!"

Although Li Shimin and Wei Zheng didn't say anything, Li Chengfeng could feel it, and they must have been scared.

However, the fact that people cannibalize people has been studied in the 21st century.

For example, when a group of people are trapped in the island and snow-capped mountains, some people will really do such things to survive.

So Li Chengfeng is not lying.

"How long will it take for this damn weather to recover?"

Li Shimin actually started to scold God?

But it's only August, the hottest season of the year.

If you want to end the drought, you have to wait until the summer is over. When winter comes, maybe the lives of the people will gradually get better.

...

Along the way, Wei Zheng asked a few passers-by about the whereabouts of Taixiang Village.

Li Chengfeng and Li Shimin and their group walked for half an hour and arrived at a relatively dilapidated village.

Originally, Li Shimin planned to let Wu Xu and Li Lizhi stay in the West Pavilion.

But he was afraid that something would happen to the two little girls, so Li Shimin brought them with him.

"Is the disaster so serious that people cannibalize? Humph, I don't believe it. Wei Zheng, Feng'er, go to this village called Taixiang Village with me!"

"It's the Emperor!"

"Okay Father!"

...

After Li Shimin and Li Chengfeng walked into Taixiang Village together, several villagers stared at them with straight eyes.

The people who watched it were in a terrible mood.

Li Lizhi and Wu Xu couldn't help but shrink behind Li Chengfeng.

"The nobles are here, everyone, look, the rich are here in our village!"

"Yes, when you look at their looks and clothes, you know that they must be very rich!"

"But what's the use of having money these days? One gold can't buy a dou of rice. If the emperor didn't distribute food, the people in the world would starve to death!"

After hearing the villagers' words, Li Shimin couldn't help but frown tightly.

It seems that the disaster has reached a point of seriousness.

Then, Li Shimin came to a little boy and said, "Little baby, I wonder if there is water in your house? Can you give me an excuse to drink water?"

The child raised his head and looked at Li Shimin with a panic on his face.

The people on the side spoke again and said, "That rich man went to Heiwazi's house. Oh my God, how dare he go to Heiwa's house? Heiwa's mother died. It is said that it was eaten by his family.

!”

"Ah? People cannibalize? Is it so scary?"

"Of course it's true. Someone saw it with his own eyes that day! We were all eating grass roots, but Heiwa's family was eating meat? It's such a big arm, and it's just cooked in the pot..."

"Oh, it's amazing, I'm so goosebumps all over my body!"

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, if these rich people don't leave here quickly, they will probably suffer!"

The villagers of Taixiang Village began to discuss again.

Hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but shrink his pupils, and Li Chengfeng was also stunned.

According to legend, is the incident of cannibalism in Taixiang Village circulating among the people what happened at the little boy's home?

Heiwa looked at Li Shimin, Li Chengfeng and others with a panic look, and then looked at the villagers around him in panic.

Heiwa's eyes were full of helplessness. He seemed to want to cry, but he couldn't cry!
