After the marriage was broken off, the husband's family regretted it

County Magistrate Wu wanted to say something else, but then he thought that Yun Tao had already helped her enough. She must have suffered a lot today, and 8 cents a pound of food was really cheap. It was good enough to have food now, and 8 cents was almost like giving it away for free.

County Magistrate Wu could only watch Yun Tao and his group leave.

The rest of the people looked at the scene and felt extremely regretful. Now it's good. People don't sell grain anymore. Where can I buy such cheap and good quality grain now?

Magistrate Wu looked at the people in front of him and said, "You are happy now, right? They are happy now. We are not selling grain anymore. You should buy grain from the shop in the future. Maybe you will like to buy grain from there."

After saying this, County Magistrate Wu left.

No matter how the people behind him called him, he ignored them and just turned around and left without even looking back.

Daniu and Yuntao were on their way back when Daniu suddenly said, "Mom, I suspect someone is teasing us, especially that bearded man. He is not a good person, and he wasn't there when we sold him before. He suddenly showed up today and looks unfamiliar."

"People around here also said they had never seen this person before, and that he was the one who started all the trouble. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't be facing what we have today."

"Daniu, you are very considerate. The bearded man is the leader. He is here to find fault. Our prices are too cheap. Although there are only a few kinds of food, people are tired of eating them. But now is a special period, it is good to be able to buy food. And it is good quality and cheap food. The interests of grain merchants have been infringed."

"This is a good time to make money from the national crisis. We are blocking their way."

"And I don't plan to keep selling them. I was just trying to find an excuse. Today is the perfect excuse, and the imperial court's grain will soon be delivered. Let them eat the relief grain."

"Mom, that's fine. I also think that selling it for a long time is not a solution. We might as well take it to the capital. At least we can make more money, and it's our own store."

Yun Tao couldn't help laughing when she looked at Daniu. This guy was becoming more and more like herself, just like her money-grubber.

I say, Lord Governor, you should think of a solution. The price of food in the city is rising too fast. Some shops are even out of food, and some people have starved to death. If this continues, you and I will be punished.

The governor was also very anxious.

Now all the prefectures and counties have no extra food. They can’t even take care of the people in their own territories, so how can they take care of other territories?

"What's the point of urging me now? I have no other options. Where can I find food for you? You still have to wait for the relief food from the court. Otherwise, should I perform a transformation for you? If I had that ability, why would I be an official? I might as well become a god."

The prefect didn't show any good face to Lord Wang.

Lord Wang was also annoyed at this time. He had finally climbed to this point. Now the number of people starving to death was gradually increasing. Although there was food from the court, the food from the court had not arrived yet, right? Now he had to find a way himself.

"My Lord Governor, what else can we do? We all have to find a way to get some food, at least to hold on until the food from the court arrives. Otherwise, you and I will have good days ahead. Aren't you a merchant? You can look for someone in your family."

"My Lord Wang, I am a merchant, but I am not a grain merchant. What's the point of me looking for someone from my family? You said, I should look for someone who has grain."

At this moment, something flashed through Lord Wang's mind: merchants, grain merchants.

"Sir Governor, I have an idea. You are the right person to handle this matter. I know a very good candidate. You know this person, and he is even very familiar with your family."

The governor said anxiously, "My Lord Wang, please stop keeping us in suspense and speak quickly."

Lord Wang was very proud when he saw the look of the Lord Prefect in front of him.

"This person is far away in the sky and yet close at hand. That person is Yun Tao."

Yuntao sneezed at this time, wondering which bastard was thinking about her.

The prefect kept muttering Yuntao's name.

"Is it reliable to go to her? Although she has some fields in the village and grows a lot of food, she also needs to sell it in her shop. And I don't know how her food is doing with this heavy rain. It's not appropriate for me to go to her now. What if she doesn't have any food? Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?"

"My Lord Governor, this is simple. You are an official and she is a commoner. Besides, if she wants to do business well in the capital, she still relies on you. Isn't your daughter her supporter? Isn't your daughter's supporter you? She can be successful in the capital because of us officials. If she wants to love you, it's time for her to do her part. She should show her ability."

"And there must be food. Look at the supermarkets. When have they ever run out of food? Even though there are no fresh vegetables now. Have you ever seen rice run out? There is still rice in the supermarkets now. It is always sold freely."

"Are you telling the truth, Lord Wang? But rice is very precious, and most people are reluctant to buy it to eat. I think it's normal to have some leftovers."

"It's just that I'm embarrassed to ask for it now. After all, there is too much food, and the price is very low if our government buys it."

"That's right, Lord Governor. You can ask Yun Tao for 5,000 kilograms of grain first. She must have some. Just ask someone to go and get it. Why are you so concerned? If you can't do this well, how can you keep your cap on?"

The governor was getting anxious. What Lord Wang said made sense. He should ask Yun Tao first to see if she had any food.

The prefect immediately sent someone to Yuntao's village to ask Yuntao to come to the provincial capital.

Yun Tao had not been resting at home for long when she heard someone outside say that the prefect wanted to see her.

When Yun Tao heard this, she thought, "Maybe the governor also wants to ask me for food."

Yun Tao felt so bitter. They really thought of themselves as invincible grain merchants. They really thought too highly of themselves.

It was already afternoon when Yun Tao arrived at the city. There were few people on the street at this time, and it was much more deserted than before.

"Brother Yamen Runner, I haven't been to the city for more than a month. Is the street so deserted now? It used to be very lively, with huge crowds of people."
