Chapter 1501

At that time, Anxia asked the merchants in a friendly manner what goods were the best sellers and what was the cheapest. He also asked the people what goods they were most satisfied with at the New Year Goods Festival, whether the prices were the same as those in the brochures, and whether they were not cheating.

The merchants are smiling and the people are happy, and they all praise the New Year Festival.

"I have never bought so many good things for the New Year in my life."

"Princess, will there be a New Year's Goods Festival next year?"

"Princess, the New Year Goods Festival is just what I want! I made a lot of money!"

Someone asked, "Selling at such a low price, can you still make a lot of money?"

The merchant replied, "The court has subsidized you with silver! In other words, the court has paid most of the silver for you. The more you buy, the more the court will give you. You are taking advantage of the court!"

"So what are you waiting for? Keep buying! The more you buy, the more you earn!"

"Yes, yes, yes. The more you buy, the more you earn! I'm afraid this kind of good thing doesn't happen every year!"

Shi Anxia smiled and nodded.

Of course, such good things don't happen every year. If they did, the treasury would be so empty that Emperor Mingde would be dizzy.

But I have to say this, "Youzhou is my princess's fiefdom. This is my first time to celebrate the New Year on my fiefdom, and I wish to celebrate with the people."

Everyone shouted happily, "Long live the princess!"

Shi Anxia had a dignified posture with a faint smile on her face.

People's focus gradually shifted, and they just thought how beautiful and festive Princess Haiyan was.

When she spoke, people felt that the cold wind was no longer cold and spring was coming. Even if she didn't speak, just standing there, people felt that the New Year was coming with joy.

After looking at the princess, the people looked at the prince consort beside her, who was tall, handsome and incomparable.

"Hehe, this is the first time I see a living princess and her husband."

"Keep your voice down. Don't you want to die? Talking about the royal family like that."

"It's nothing. The princess and her husband are very approachable. Look, they are also buying New Year's goods in person."

"Oh, really! What did they buy? I'll buy some too."

Some people had thought that there must be a huge conspiracy behind this. But now that they saw the princess and her husband personally coming to the New Year Goods Festival, their doubts were dispelled.

Shi Anxia's appearance at the New Year Goods Festival was not only to dispel the people's doubts, but also to put pressure on officials at all levels to make them work more diligently and honestly.

The imperial court allocated a huge amount of money for disaster relief this time, so there are many operational links involved.

If anyone was caught embezzling the relief money, no matter how much, they would be beheaded. She had repeatedly stressed this message when the relief money arrived.

After three or four days, half of the people in Chang'an County were moved to Yuncheng.

The pressure in Yuncheng suddenly increased.

There are two days left before the earthquake hits.

Shi Anxia asked people to increase publicity and continue the transfer. In this way, more than half of the people were transferred.

All the inns in Yuncheng are full, and those who can't accommodate them have to stay in the homes of ordinary people.

The people who provided accommodation also received silver subsidies, making this New Year's Eve an extraordinary one.

But on the last day, people were only allowed to enter Yuncheng but not leave. Some people realized that something was wrong and started clamoring to return to Chang'an County.

There were some people with bad intentions who tried to cause unrest in the city, but as soon as they lit a fire, they were caught by the patrol garrison in ordinary clothes.
