Coming out of the state administration, Wang Dou exhaled: "After a lot of effort, my uncle's business is finally done."

The two of them talked privately at home, Han Chao, Han Zhong, and Gao Shiyin all consciously walked away.

……

At present, Wang Dou has completed two of the three things that he came to Baozhou City, and finally he went to the Medical Department to ask a few doctors to return to the fort. However, there are no acquaintances in the Department of Medicine, and he only knows Officer Qi in Baozhou, but unfortunately Officer Qi has no friendship with everyone in the Department of Medicine. I have to figure out how to do this by myself.

Looking at the time when it was almost noon, Wang Dou felt a little hungry in his stomach, remembering that Gao Shiyin said that a new hotel had opened in the drum tower, and the food tasted good, and the building was condescending, the atmosphere must be good. He said, "Look at noon, find a place to eat." Brother Gao, the taste of that restaurant in the Drum Tower is really good? ”

Gao Shiyin said: "Don't worry, the little ones will definitely not lie to you." ”

Han Zhong was very happy, and he shouted, "Gao Manzi, you said that you have a treat." ”

Gao Shiyin glared and said, "Han Er was stunned, don't make me poor." ”

A few people talked and laughed, led the horses, and headed to the west of the state government.

The grain depot Yongxing warehouse of Baoan Prefecture is located not far from the west of the state government, and there is an ambassador, a deputy envoy, and a person in the warehouse, which was established for Jingtai in five years.

Although most of the grain levied in various places in the Ming Dynasty is converted into silver, the grain shortage has become heavier in recent years, and many places are still levied together with the true color and the folded color, and the same is true for Baoan Prefecture. It's just that paying the natural grain is heavier than paying the silver tax.

However, there are still many people who are greedy for convenience and still come to pay their own taxes and grains.

At this time, in front of the gate of Yongxingcang, there were many grain carts and horses, all of whom came to pay the summer tax.

There, there are several buckets, which are much larger than those used in the homes of ordinary people.

……

The five of them continued along East Street to the west, and along the way, the streets were full of people carrying grain and rice to collect grain.

Most of the rice shops along the street are full of people, full of people who come to sell grain for silver.

Many people came out with bitter faces, and it was obvious that the price of food was very cheap, which greatly surprised them. Last year, the price of a stone of rice in Baoan Prefecture rose to five taels of silver, and now everyone sells grain and rice, but none of the shops are willing to buy it at the price of even one tael.

Obviously, the rice shops in the city have reached a consensus and all prices have been unified.

There was a sigh of sighing, and suddenly a voice came: "Wansheng and rice shops on West Street are willing to buy our grain at the price of one stone and one tael, everyone go quickly." ”

Immediately, there was a voice: "What the little brother said is true?" ”

"Is this true? Could it be a lie? ”

The man said, "Heaven and earth conscience, how could I lie to you? I just sold grain from that store, and I told you that I wanted everyone to get some benefits, why don't you believe me? ”

A voice: "So, let's go." ”

Immediately, a large number of people were carrying their burdens and driving cars, and they were all heading for that side.

Wang Dou and the others were also very strange, Wang Dou muttered: "Wan Shenghe? When we bought grain in Tunpu, we were in this rice shop, and I heard that the shopkeeper of this rice shop was a woman, and the price was very fair. ”

Han Chao's eyes also flashed, and he said: "Indeed, when she sold rice to us, the price of rice in the store was two cents cheaper than other rice shops, and the owner of this shop is indeed a kind-hearted person."

The girl whispered in front of the young woman: "Sister, this is the Han Zongqi you often mention?" Sure enough, it's an honest man, hey. ”

The young woman's face was a little red, she peeked at Han Chao, stretched out her hand and slapped the girl lightly, and scolded: "Go, pour water for the guests, no big or small." ”

The girl giggled and went.

Gao Shiyin behind Wang Dou was also stunned since he saw the girl, and just looked at her deadly.

It was only at this time that Han Chao remembered the topic, he pointed to Wang Dou and said to the young woman: "Zheng Niangzi, this is our Lord Wang Dou of Jingbian Fort, this time I came to Zhou City, and Han came with my lord." ”

The young woman Zheng Niangzi was taken aback, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet Wang Dou and Wanfu, and said, "It turned out to be Lord Wang, and the slave family was negligent and rude." ”

Wang Dou smiled and said: "The little lady doesn't have to be polite, Wang came in a hurry, it was our rudeness." ”

Zheng Niangzi beckoned Wang Dou and the others to sit down, and Zhong Tiaoyang was still watching everyone's horses on the side of the street.

Zheng Niangzi said some kind words to Wang Dou, and looked at Han Chao from time to time, and Han Chao was like a shy little girl, just bowing her head and studying her own uppers. The girl came forward to pour water for everyone, and when Gao Shiyin took the tea, she just looked at her blankly, and the girl blushed and ran away a little shyly.

Wang Dou looked at Han Chao and then at Gao Shiyin, and laughed in his heart: "These two guys are collectively thinking about spring." ”

After talking for a while, Zheng Niangzi kept Wang Dou and others to eat in the store, and Wang Dou smiled and said: "In this way, it will bother the little lady." ”

At this moment, a middle-aged man suddenly ran in a hurry outside the store, and he shouted from a distance: "My niece, you are too rough in your work, you are in trouble!" ”
