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

The Liangzhou governor said with a forced smile, "Of course it's because the autumn harvest hasn't arrived yet, so the price of rice is a bit high at this time!"

Bai Wuyue's face turned cold, "But last year! Before the autumn harvest! The price of rice was only nine cents per pound!"

“Why is it so expensive this year?”

"Sir, please stop talking about other things and give us ordinary people an explanation!"

After hearing this, Wu Li nodded quickly and looked at the governor of Liangzhou seriously.

Bai Wuyue and Wu Litong stared at the governor of Liangzhou with a pair of clear eyes. Although they were still children, the determination in their eyes made the governor of Liangzhou unable to change the subject.

There's no way of fooling people!

The governor of Liangzhou turned pale and blue in the face. He didn't expect...that they even knew the price of rice.

They are clearly just daughters of wealthy businessmen, why do they have to get involved in these major issues concerning people's livelihood?!

I just wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to raise the price, why are they always making trouble?!

The governor of Liangzhou frowned, although he was a little scared...but when he thought about it carefully, even if the price of rice was high, it was really none of his business.

He coughed dryly twice at the two of them and said, "I know about this matter. I will have my subordinates investigate it."

"But I have to tell you in advance that I will not be involved in adjusting food prices for the people... These are all adjusted by the people below based on the current food prices!"

"They've raised the price so high, which means there will definitely be less food this year and a bad harvest!"

"If I get involved in this, I'm afraid they'll call me a dog official!"

Bai Wuyue and Wuli looked at each other. Wuli was so angry that his face turned red and his forehead was smoking!

The governor of Liangzhou is still unwilling to take care of it!

Just as Wu Li was about to say something, Bai Wu Yue pulled him aside.

Then Bai Wuyue said with a smile: "Speaking of which... Your Excellency, there is one more thing that I find very strange."

"What's the matter?"

The governor of Liangzhou looked at her.

Bai Wuyue then said quietly, "Originally within Liangzhou... our Bai Family Rice Shop was the most popular. It was cheap, and we often sold worm-free rice, so the common people could eat white rice! Most people would go to the Bai Family Rice Shop to buy food."

"But recently, some millet shop assistants have suddenly appeared. They would stop people who had just returned from buying food at Bai's rice shop..."

"They would also threaten them, saying if they didn't buy from their millet shop, they would cause trouble for their family, beat them up... and so on!"

"These are bandits, Your Excellency the Governor! How about you help investigate where this group of people came from?! Whose power do they rely on to dare to openly offend my mother and threaten the people throughout Liangzhou!"

The governor of Liangzhou broke out in a cold sweat.

Bai Wuyue laughed and said, "Sir, if you don't investigate this matter thoroughly, I'm afraid His Majesty will punish you. Will you even be able to keep your title as Liangzhou Governor?"

The Liangzhou governor was furious! He immediately shouted at Bai Wuyue, "County Lady Fuyue! Even if you are the County Lady appointed by His Majesty, you can't step on my face like this!"

"Your Majesty? How dare you threaten me with something like this?!"

"How can the price adjustment of rice by a rice shop and the vicious competition among rice shops be linked to me, the governor of Liangzhou?!"

"is it?"

Bai Wuyue looked at the governor of Liangzhou carefully, and felt guilty about him.

She smiled brightly at the Liangzhou governor and said, "Sir Governor, if that's the case...we will go down and investigate it ourselves."

"If we find anything we shouldn't be investigating, don't blame us for complaining directly to His Majesty!"

"His Majesty loves all of us, especially my sister July! When the time comes, we'll say that the people from the Xiaomipu beat up my sister July. Do you think His Majesty will be furious and kill all of their clans?"

Hearing this, beads of sweat began to form on the forehead of the governor of Liangzhou. He kept wiping them, but they were not wiped clean. Even his hood was wet.

Seeing Bai Wuyue and Wu Li about to leave, he quickly stepped forward to pull them back, saying with an apologetic smile, "Hey, wait! Why are you leaving?! Come back and talk this over!"

"Well, I think...it's time to adjust the price of rice in Liangzhou!"

He pretended to be serious and said, "Maybe your mother controls the food lifeline of the entire Liangzhou. The other millet shops can't survive, so they must be targeting your mother!"

"Well, I'll have my people give those shopkeepers a good beating and tell them not to raise the grain prices so ridiculously!"

"It should be about the same anyway... If you guys at Bai's sell more rice, those shops will just have to charge a little more!"

After hearing this, Bai Wuyue nodded and said to the Liangzhou governor with a smile, "Sir, thank you very much."

"If after a while... there are still people crying and complaining to us, we will inform the Queen Mother about this matter."

"Then it won't be us who come to negotiate with you."

After saying that, they left.

Seeing how presumptuous they were, the governor of Liangzhou was furious. He smashed the teacups in the room and cursed.

"These little devils are so clever and shameless!"

"But they found out so quickly..."

The governor of Liangzhou was a little surprised. He pondered carefully, "How could they have discovered it so quickly?"

These kids really know a lot about food prices!

Bai Wuyue and Wu Li also returned to the Bai family. They saw all the children of the Bai family gathered around and asked Bai Wuyue and Wu Li, "How is it? What did the prefect say?"

......

"The prefect said he would take care of this matter, so don't worry."

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Bai Yiyue frowned, resting her hand on her cheek. "Speaking of which, the prefect is truly shameless. He wants to take advantage of this national crisis to make a fortune, but he doesn't even want to let the people buy food from our Bai family rice shop! Give them a good beating!"

"Do you really think we don't know he did it?!"

"This is too stupid!"

Bai Tingjing said happily, "In the entire Liangzhou, the only one who dares to openly oppose our Bai family is... the Liangzhou governor."

The other officials in Liangzhou all have very good relations with them, so how could such a situation occur?

Even if you don't like the Bai family, you dare not openly oppose them.

They were all speechless.

Murong Jinshu embroidered the brocade bag in her hand and said to them with a smile: "It doesn't matter. After all, we have the Queen Mother here to take charge. The Queen Mother will definitely not let him make money from the national crisis."
