In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.

After a burst of crackling and lively firecrackers, six guards unfolded a large red cloth.

The red cloth was cut into thin strips, like modern banners, and was held by two guards on either side.

The calligraphy written on it also caught people's eyes——

Seven Fairies Rice Shop, good luck in opening!

The calligraphy was written in large letters by Gu Liang himself. The strokes were upright and vigorous, with an elegant and scholarly air.

Even if Bai Lu didn't understand whether the handwriting was good or not, she could tell at a glance that the handwriting was really awesome, just like modern printed characters.

Gu Liang has been studying harder and harder in the past two years. In addition, after he passed the examination to become a scholar, many people offered him olive branches, which improved his conditions. Therefore, he was able to practice his handwriting hard.

Passersby were stunned when they saw the handwriting.

They all praised: "This is so well written! Who wrote it?"

"It should be Gu Liang who is beside Bai Lu."

"Don't you know Gu Liang? He is the scholar who often hangs out with Lady Bailu Luo and the others."

"Gu Xiucai...it turned out that this calligraphy was written by Gu Xiucai. It is really well written."

"Ah, there is a scholar here to support us. The Seven Fairies Rice Shop has officially opened. We must go in and take a good look!"

"..."

"The Seven Fairies Milk Tea Shop that Bai Lu opened before was very good. We all like to drink milk tea in the Seven Fairies Milk Tea Shop. Naturally, we have to support this rice shop!"

"And Bai Lu is so sincere."

"..."

These people, rich or poor, no matter what, all want to get in.

Bai Lu smiled at them and said, "To celebrate the grand opening of our Seven Fairies Rice Shop, we will naturally give you some discounts and benefits."

"We have some rice with bugs in it in our store. This rice with bugs is edible..."

"But if I sell it, it would seem a bit unfair, but as a businessman I can't help but make money."

"So I'm going to sell it to everyone at a favorable price! One penny per pound! This rice with bugs is like giving it away for free!"

"???"

"!!!"

"What!! One penny for a pound of rice?!"

"Oh my god, this is a piece of cake!"

"Is it infested with bugs? If it is infested with bugs, it's okay. You can remove the bugs and the rice can be eaten."

But there is rice in this world that can be sold for one penny per pound.

You should know that in the entire Lianhua Town and even in Liangzhou Prefecture, the price of rice is at least twenty or thirty cents.

The rice here in Bailu...is only one cent, it's like free.

Everyone rushed in madly and started snatching things.

"I want a pound! I want a pound!"

"Give me ten pounds!"

"Give me a hundred pounds!"

"Give me lots and lots of pounds!"

"I want as many as I can!"

"..."

Bai Lu looked at their enthusiasm and quickly asked a few guards to stop those people.

Bai Lu smiled and said to the people below: "But... don't get too excited. Although rice is one cent per pound, each person can only buy five pounds."

"If you buy too much, we won't sell it."

"what......"

Everyone was very disappointed, and they all said dejectedly.

"The rice is so cheap at this penny, it really is free."

"But why can't you give us more?"

"Hey, is White Snake still doing business?"

"Really? All of you, get out of here."

"I'm going to buy some rice worth a penny from White Lady's house, and buy some other rice at the same time!"

"The price of rice at Bailu's house sounds quite affordable!"

"Then besides the worm-infested rice which is one penny, how much is the worm-free rice?!"

Bai Lu smiled and said, "In other counties next door, rice without insects is 30 wen per jin. If we catch up one day, it may be 35 wen per jin."

"But my family only sells it for 25 wen per pound."

"?"

"You only sell it for 25 wen a jin?! That's a difference of wen."

They all looked at Bai Lu in shock.

Then, they rushed in and bought them frantically.

"If it's only 25 cents a pound, then I want a few more pounds, a few more pounds!"

I also want! "

"..."

In the entire Liangzhou Prefecture, it is estimated that you won’t find rice cheaper than that from Bai Lu’s family.

They all went to the Seven Fairies Rice Shop frantically to buy.

On the first day of opening, business was booming.

Bai Lu had actually expected that the business here would be booming, so she specially hired a lot of people from outside to help her with the work.

Bai Lu brought Gu Liang along, and the two of them settled the score.

Gu Liang was mainly responsible for the calculation, while Bai Lu was watching him from the side.

As for Bai Lu, she is actually better at accounting than Gu Liang. The level of mathematics learned in modern times is simply not the same as that learned in ancient times.

But she was too lazy to do the math. Bai Lu glanced at Gu Liang and asked him to settle the bill. Then she went home to have a rest.

I'm so tired.

Gu Liang is in charge over there, so just hand over the Seven Fairies Rice Shop to Gu Liang first.

As soon as she returned home, she saw the three brothers of the Bai family looking at Bai Lu with strange eyes.

"?"

Bai Lu was confused. "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"

"..."

The three brothers of the Bai family coughed twice. They were all shocked and said to Bai Lu: "Um... you opened the Seven Fairies Rice Shop. You are so awesome, aren't you?"

"Yes, yes. We just secretly went to take a look at the Seven Fairies Rice Shop. So many customers rushed in."

"And it's worth mentioning that... the banner just now was also well written."

Bai Chuyao nodded with a smile, and said with a smile: "Who wrote that banner? The words are more beautiful than mine!"

When Bai Lu heard this, she smiled at Bai Chuyao and said, "How could that be? He is a scholar, and the eldest son is already an official."

Bai Chuyao waved his hand and said, "Hey, it doesn't matter if a scholar can be an official or not. I just write well because I write well. There are many people who are not as good at reading as me, but their handwriting is better than mine."

Bai Chuyao smiled and said, "In a small place like your Lianhua Town, there is such a great scholar hidden."

"Who is he? Can you introduce him to me later?"

Bai Qingze immediately said with a smile, "Isn't this Gu Liang? The one that my second brother hid in the cellar before."

"Mr. Gu is indeed a noble scholar. I have met him before. He has good character, is upright, and is also a good scholar... Maybe he can work in the government in the future, such as being a county magistrate."

The only drawback is that Bai Qingze always feels that Gu Liang seems to be coveting his sister.

But if he could pass the imperial examinations and become a county magistrate or a minor official...it would be fine to let him and his sister be together. The main thing is that Gu Liang has good character.

He is an honest man, which is hard to find, and he is also familiar with Bai Lu.

Bai Chuyao nodded: "...Oh, then Gu Liang is him..."

He did have an impression of Gu Liang, but he had only met him once or twice.

Bai Liezhao, who was next to Bai Qingze, said with a smile: "Speaking of Gu Liang... I always feel that he looks a bit like someone."

"But for a moment, I couldn't remember who he resembled."

"..."

When Bai Qingze heard this, he touched his chin and nodded with a smile.

"Yeah, I think so too... He seems to have some similarities with some lord in the court."

When Bai Lu heard this, she raised her eyebrows.

It is true that Gu Liang is not his father's biological son, but... he couldn't have been born in Kyoto.

In particular, they knew powerful officials in the court.

It was obvious that Gu Liang's status was very different from theirs, and it seemed impossible.

But with her intuition as a time-traveling girl, she always felt that Gu Liang might have some relationship with them, so she wanted to talk about this.

Bai Chuyao, Bai Liezhao, and Bai Qingze all felt that their guess was a bit far-fetched.

So before Bai Lu could speak, Bai Qingze laughed and said, "But there are so many similar people in this world. I think Madam Luo is somewhat similar to the people in our court."

"Specifically... I forgot who it was similar to."

After that, Bai Chuyao smiled at Bai Lu and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Let's talk about business first, let's talk about your rice shop."

"Lady Bai, your rice shop in Liangzhou Prefecture will definitely make a lot of money from now on."

Bai Lu nodded with a smile.

"That is required."

And you will be able to get rich soon.

She is destined to be the richest person in Huai County.

The richest man in Liangzhou Prefecture will probably become one soon.

At least, after this group of wealthy businessmen gave her the money, Bai Lu's net worth would be ranked among the best in the entire Liangzhou Prefecture.

Among the seventy-two wealthy businessmen, sixty-two were the richest men in the town, and ten were the richest men in the county. After deducting the one county richest man and one town richest man's share given to Shen Congyun, and returning the cost, he could at least have about 230 million taels left.

As the richest man in Liangzhou Prefecture, his total net worth is estimated to be only five or six million taels of silver.

It was only a matter of time before he became the richest man in Liangzhou Prefecture.

Bai Lu smiled and said to the three brothers of the Bai family: "Thank you very much for your kind words."

Bai Chuyao said, smiling at Bai Lu: "But... there is one thing... Lady Bai, I would like to remind you, ""I don't mean to say anything, but you and my family have a very good relationship, so Lady Bai, we have always treated you as my own sister."

Bai Chuyao's words were sincere. He said to Bai Lu, "Other people are selling rice at 30 or 35 wen per pound, but you're only selling it at 25 wen. Isn't that a bit bad?"

“First, you earn little.”

"Second, they are all unhappy and not happy...they come to smash your store, what are you going to do?"

"Third,...can't you lower the price of rice in Liangzhou Prefecture?"

"The lowering of rice prices will not benefit you in any way. After all, you are a businessman."

Bai Lu smiled at Bai Chuyao and said, "First, I don't earn much, but I don't think it's a big deal. It doesn't matter how much I earn, as long as the people can have enough to eat."

"Secondly, they won't be happy or upset to come and smash my store. This won't happen."

"After all, there are dozens of the richest people in Liangzhou Prefecture, all of whom were saved by me. Their lives are in my hands. After they are released, they will definitely protect me. This is called connections."

"The third point.

The rice price was lowered, and this was also a deliberate move on my part.”

"Otherwise, I could have sold it for 29 wen per jin. Even though it's one wen cheaper than 29 wen per jin, there are still many people who come to buy it."

"But I think 25 wen per pound is a relatively low price... If the people can afford to eat rice, then it would be the best."

“I want all the people to be able to afford rice.”

Bai Lu's words were so sincere that they shocked Bai Chuyao, Bai Liezhao and Bai Qingze.

Bai Chuyao, Bai Liezhao and Bai Qingze all looked at Bai Lu with surprise, their eyes full of complexity.

Bai Chuyao's eyes suddenly turned red.

This is my sister...

This is my sister!

She is exactly like her mother.

Their mother had always taught them that death is not to be feared, but to die for a good cause.

A real man cannot be afraid of death.

And his sister, as expected, followed her mother. What a noble and virtuous person she was.

Bai Liezhao looked at Bai Lu with complicated eyes, and he was also shocked in his heart.

Bai Lu...she really looks like a human being.

She looks a bit like her mother.

Alas, at this time Bai Liezhao was thinking, it would be great if Bai Lu was his sister, but unfortunately... Bai Lu was not his biological sister.

That Princess Mingzhu is it.

Bailu and Princess Mingzhu are about the same age, but why is Bailu so sensible, but Princess Mingzhu is not so sensible? !

Why are Bailu and Princess Mingzhu so different in character? ! Everyone has their own destiny!

Bai Liezhao shook his head, his eyes full of regret.

It would be great if Bai Lu could be my sister, but there are no ifs.

Alas, but Bai Lu has such a good character, he wants to be good friends with Bai Lu from now on.

How could the third brother have such good taste? How could he meet such a good girl? !

Bai Laosan also looked at Bai Lu with complicated eyes, his heart full of pride and honor.

This is my sister... Look, look, this is my own sister.

His sister is so noble and virtuous, so beautiful and bright.

If this were to be released outside, she would have to build a shrine or a temple, and the family tree might even have to have a separate page for it.
