Chapter 147: Go to the street to buy rice and water!
Li Chengfeng turned his head and said, "I told you not to follow me, but you just don't listen. Now it's okay, it's so hot, right? Don't have heat stroke!"
Li Chengfeng taught Li Lizhi and Wu Xu a lesson like a little adult.
Wu Xu bulged his cheeks and said, "We just want to play with you!"
"Okay, OK, the market town is right in front. Heiwa and I will go to buy rice later. You and Xiaowu will go to buy water!"
"OK!"
Soon, under the leadership of Heiwa, the four of them came to the market town on the street of Chang'an.
Here, there is a big shop for buying rice.
There were even two guards guarding the shop.
"There are actually guards?" Li Chengfeng said in surprise.
"Yes!" Heiwa nodded and said, "Because the vendors who bought rice in the past no longer sold them. Only the rice shops opened by the Zhao family are still there, but the rice sold here is so expensive, so let's not buy it!"
"Are all the vendors who bought rice closed?"
"Yes, there was a large number of people robbing rice once before, which led to rice dealers not daring to sell rice again!"
"What? So that's how it is. No wonder there are guards guarding me!"
Heiwa looked at Li Chengfeng carefully, afraid that Li Chengfeng would be angry when he heard the rice price.
Moreover, Heiwa didn't want Li Chengfeng to spend money, and said, "I think we'd better not buy it, the rice here is too expensive!"
But Li Chengfeng just frowned slightly and said, "It's okay, I'll go buy rice. Could they dare to collect my money?"
Li Chengfeng and Heiwa walked to the front of the rice shop together.
A few people cursed casually: "What? One gold is only sold for half a dou of rice? Didn't you still sell one dou before? Why are you selling half a dou now?"
"That's right, your rice is so expensive, where can we afford it?"
Then, a fat man with a thorny beard walked out and said, "Looking at the entire Chang'an Street, there is rice sold here in our Zhao family, so the price is up to us!"
"But you can't sell it so expensive?"
"It's natural that there's a reason to be expensive!" The fat man smiled treacherously and said, "Didn't the emperor distribute 100,000 gold to you? You can use the money to buy rice? In addition, this is my rice shop. If even we are closed, what else do you eat? You have nothing to eat!"
"Damn it, but we can't afford the rice you priced at all!"
A man in a civilian clenched his fists tightly, dared not speak out if he dared to be angry.
"Yes, and the 100,000 gold distributed by the emperor, we don't have a single gold money on average! It turned out that one gold could buy dozens of dou of rice, but now we can't even buy a dou of rice?"
Another thin man cursed.
The fat man turned his eyes and said, "It was the past, it is now! But we decided based on the market and the emperor's words!"
"What? The price of this rice is set by the emperor?"
"Hmph...or what do you think?"
However, Li Chengfeng, who was standing aside, held their conversation in his ears.
Li Chengfeng immediately stood up and said, "Fatty, you fart, who said that this rice was priced by the emperor?"
"Ding, the surprise from Zhao Gui, the naughty value is 20!"
It turns out that this cunning fat man is called Zhao Gui?
Zhao Gui looked at Li Chengfeng, kicked his eyes and shouted, "Huh? Where did the gangster come from? Someone, drive these two children out for me, don't let them make trouble!"
"Yes, Lord Zhao!"
Two soldiers walked towards Li Chengfeng, but Li Chengfeng took out a large bag of gold from his pocket and said, "Dare you touch me? I'm here to buy rice. Do you dare to touch me and try?"
"Hehe, such a big purse? It's all filled with stones? I've seen many naughty kids like you!"
Zhao Gui walked to Li Chengfeng with a smile.
However, when Li Chengfeng opened his purse and exposed a bag of golden gold, everyone present was stunned.
"Gold, is it actually gold?"
Zhao Gui grew up and looked at Li Chengfeng in surprise.
A big bag of gold like this can be at least 100 gold.
A child of such a young man who carries 100 gold with him must be the child of a wealthy family.
So Zhao Gui immediately changed his face and smiled, "Haha, it turns out that the noble prince is here? How dare you ask the noble prince, do you have a great name?"
"Li Chengfeng!"
"Oh, it turns out that he is the noble son of the Li family, Li family, Li? Emperor, royal family surname?"
When Zhao Gui heard Li Chengfeng's name, he was immediately shocked.
He didn't know Li Chengfeng, so he naturally didn't know that Li Chengfeng was the eighth prince of the Tang Dynasty today.
But the surname Li is a big surname, and the emperor of the dynasty had the surname Li.
Immediately afterwards, Li Chengfeng frowned slightly and said, "Zhao Gui, why do you buy rice from your house so expensive?"
"This, Mr. Li, these rice were hoarded by my Zhao family in the past few years! Because our Zhao family is a rice merchant! This year is a year of severe drought, and the disaster is severe. People have no food to eat, so I took out the rice stored in my hometown and sold it! Later I found that more and more people bought rice, and then the price was raised!"
"Rareless, then are you making money from the national crisis?"
Li Chengfeng shouted loudly, and his aura suddenly dissipated, scaring Zhao Gui.
Zhao Gui could tell at a glance that Li Chengfeng was definitely not an ordinary child.
Whether it was his clothes or his aura, he seemed to be a nobleman.
Zhao Gui was afraid that Li Chengfeng was from the palace, so he did not dare to offend Li Chengfeng.
Then, Zhao Gui came to Li Chengfeng and whispered: "How about such a young master Li, I will sell this price for others, but for you, I will restore the original price. I will sell you three dou of rice for one gold. What do you think?"
"Sell me three dou of rice? Do you know who am I? Do you dare to collect my money?"
Li Chengfeng looked at Zhao Gui with a smile.
Zhao Gui panicked and said, "Who are you?"
Li Chengfeng grinned, leaned close to Zhao Gui's ear and said, "Li Chengfeng, the Eighth Prince of the Tang Dynasty, have you heard of it?"
"Ah? Eighth-eighth-eighth-Prince, Li Chengfeng?"
"Ding, the fear from Zhao Gui, the naughty value is 100!"
Zhao Gui was shocked.
The person in front of me is actually the Eighth Prince of the Tang Dynasty?
I had said before, how could the name Li Chengfeng be so familiar? When I think about it carefully, I turned out to be a genius prodigy from the Tang Dynasty, the Eighth Prince!
"Eighth Prince, why did you come to Chang'an Street? Where is your guard? Why didn't you come with me?"
Zhao Gui looked out the door with a panic on his face, thinking that Li Chengfeng would definitely have many guards following him when he went out.
