"Then I want [-] copies, within two days. Do you have any in stock?"

Wang Dao asked.

"Twenty thousand volumes..."

The shopkeeper of Hanhai Bookstore showed a look of embarrassment on his face, and his brows were furrowed, as uncomfortable as watching money flow away in front of him.

"Why not?"

"If you can't even get [-] books out, why are you opening a bookstore? Just close the door and go home."

Wang Dao is making progress, and seems to want to go one step further, directly forcing the bookstore to close and let the Wang family dominate.

"Okay, [-] volumes is [-] volumes, and you can pick them up the night after tomorrow."

Shopkeeper Liu of Hanhai Bookstore gritted his teeth and said.

"Yes, this is the deposit." Wang Dao signaled his subordinate to come out again with a small wooden box, and there were still golden bars inside.

"If I can't get the book the night after tomorrow, then your Hanhai Bookstore will be closed. According to the rules, you have to refund ten times the deposit."

"Otherwise, hehe!"

Wang Dao glanced at the display of Hanhai Bookstore, the meaning is self-evident.

"Okay, I'll take it. I'll starve to death the brave and the timid. Twenty thousand volumes. I'll pick them up the night after tomorrow."

Shopkeeper Liu waved down a piece of paper, stamped his fingerprints on it, and handed it to Wang Dao.

"Humph!"

Wang Dao proudly left.

He was already thinking about what reward he would receive if he took the Hanhai Bookstore as his own after two days and returned to the family.

"Prince, my lord, the fish is hooked."

Shopkeeper Liu seemed to be a different person after Wang Dao left, his eyes lit up, and he came upstairs and said to Li Wenhao and Changsun Wuji who were tasting tea.

"Dalang, have you learned anything?"

Changsun Wuji poured Li Wenhao a cup of tea with a smile.

"Hehe! Uncle, do you want to say that this person should not be too greedy, otherwise he will easily feed himself to death if he can't eat it."

"That's right, it's good that you can think of this. Remember, no matter what you do in the future, you have to learn to choose and choose. Your father doesn't have time to teach you this, and you don't want to learn from Li Gang. The time that uncle can accompany you is also limited. , you must remember in the future and do what you can, otherwise you will be like them."

Changsun Wuji glanced disdainfully at the direction Wang Dao left just now.

"Hey! The matter of the bookstore is not something that must be resolved now. What I'm thinking about is the issue of food prices. After all, we can't openly grab those profiteers. When the time comes, they will drive up prices. To be honest, we There's not much you can do now."

"Now in Guanzhong, and even in the whole of the north, those grain merchants who have the most grain are the aristocratic families. I heard that their granary is even bigger than Taicang, and they have a surplus every year."

Changsun Wuji gets angry when he mentions these aristocratic families. How come the Great Tang that they managed to create is full of disasters now, and why are there these moths?
"Actually, uncle, it's not impossible."

Li Wenhao waved shopkeeper Liu to go down, motioning for Changsun Wuji to get closer.

"any solution?"

"I have a battalion called Entrapment. I haven't shown it to anyone since training, and I haven't seen blood."

hiss!
Changsun Wuji quickly reached out to cover Li Wenhao's mouth.

"Dalang, don't mention these words again in the future. You are the prince, the future emperor, and you should pay attention to a person who behaves uprightly, sits upright, and is upright. Don't mention these words again, and be careful to spread them to your father's ears. Kicking your ass."

"Hey! Isn't this extraordinary people using extraordinary means?"

Li Wenhao sneered.

As a time traveler, to be reasonable, Li Wenhao really can't take the prince's airs in front of this uncle, even Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and other veterans of the Qin Palace, Li Wenhao can't take the airs.

In the final analysis, the point of view in the mind has not yet changed.

"Da Lang, although you can't rob, you still have to be on guard against others taking risks. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Don't worry, Uncle, if you play Mai Tai, I'm their ancestor"

Just when Li Wenhao and Changsun Wuji were about to have a drink in the evening, there were bursts of noise from the streets of Chang'an, and there were even cries of people.

Li Wenhao and Changsun Wuji looked at each other and hurried out.

Now that refugees are everywhere, Chang'an City can even be said to have been surrounded and occupied by these refugees. If something goes wrong at this time, it will be in big trouble.

"what happened?"

Li Wenhao watched the teams of city guards running towards the porridge shed, with a murderous look in his eyes.

Now that the Tang Dynasty is riddled with holes, the officials in charge of disaster relief are still greedy for money?

Do you want to tamper with the relief food for the victims?
You know, the so-called relief food now is nothing more than a bowl of porridge with a potato or sweet potato. It is impossible to say that they are full, and the most they can do is to keep these victims from starving to death.

"Go and have a look, I'll see who dares to play tricks on disaster relief."

Although he didn't carry the long spear, Li Wenhao always carried the horizontal knife with him, which was enough.

"Dalang, don't worry, let's see what's going on first."

Changsun Wuji took Li Wenhao's hand and led him into the crowd.

Now the city guards have arrived, the fighting has stopped, only a group of disaster victims are left staring at the city guards in front of them.

"What are you doing, do you want to rebel?"

"Why don't you hurry up and leave, do you have to arrest you and go to prison to regret it?"

"Uncle, who is this person?"

Li Wenhao didn't know the person calling, so he asked this question.

"Under the former King of Chu, the guard of the south gate of Chang'an City, General Wang Duo"

"Ok!"

Li Wenhao nodded.

He didn't come forward, he wanted to see how this Wang Duo would handle this matter.

At this time, the officials in charge of distributing the porridge had gone to nowhere, and only a few soldiers were still guarding the cauldron for cooking porridge and the bags containing the grain.

"Uncle, are you okay?"

Wang Duo helped an old man who had been knocked down to the ground, checked the old man's injuries, took out a money bag from his bosom and handed it to the old man.

"Old man, there is still a little money here, you can take it to look at the wound, and take the rest with the children to buy a living in the city, don't wander like this anymore."

Seeing this scene, Li Wenhao nodded. Although this Wang Duo was on the wrong team at the beginning, he is not a bad person.

However, as soon as he gave the money, the old man's family became the target of public criticism. Maybe the corpse would appear in a corner of Chang'an City tomorrow. He was kind-hearted, but he didn't see the big picture. This was Li Wenhao's evaluation of Wang Duo.

The beaten old man hesitated again and again, and finally took the money handed over by Wang Duo, carefully put it in his arms, and looked at the other group of refugees in fear.

That group of refugees was the one who confronted the city guards. Although their clothes were ragged and unkempt, they were all grown men, and they were not as weak as other refugees. Depending on the situation, at worst they could have a full meal.

"Uncle, those refugees are different from other refugees, and looking at the eyes of those people, they are obviously afraid of them"

"Dalang saw it?"

"Then you know, why is this?"

Li Wenhao shook his head, seeing this, Changsun Wuji took out a letter from his bosom.

"This is the last piece of news that was collected by Baiqisi from the local government newspapers. His Majesty also gave it after the court this morning. Take a look."

"Is there such a thing?"

There were only four big characters written on the letter, there were bandits among the refugees.
