As the county magistrate's decree was fully implemented, all grain stores indeed returned to normal prices.
She walked to the granary again, and the sign hanging outside also changed to seven cents per pound.
Just as Su An was secretly feeling that he had done a great thing, a white-haired old woman walked over tremblingly and grabbed someone from the granary.
She trembled as she opened the cloth bag in her hand. "Hey boy, this is the rice my old man just bought from you. Most of it is mixed with sand. How can I eat it?"
"Are you guys just kidding me because I'm dazzled and trying to fool us with sand?"
The man who was pulled over didn't even look at it and said angrily: "Food is tight now, and this is the rule. Seven cents can only buy this stale rice and sand. It's enough to make do with it and won't kill you!"
"If you want to eat good food, buy the fine white rice. It's one hundred coins a pound!"
After saying that, the waiter shook off the old lady and hurriedly invited the new customer in.
Su An's heart suddenly turned cold.
what happened?
She followed into the granary in disbelief, only to find that the granary was divided into inner and outer rooms.
Those queuing up in the outer room to buy food were all ordinary people wearing coarse linen shirts, and the sign hanging on their backs said seven cents per pound of rice.
She pretended to be a guest and went back into the inner room. The people inside suddenly seemed wealthy and classy, and the sign clearly read "One Hundred Wen".
Good guy!
No wonder these grain merchants obeyed the government orders obediently, it turns out they were actually doing things that were hypocritical!
Moreover, the price of grain has risen by another thirty cents!
Anger flashed in Su An's eyes, and he immediately wanted to go to Lin Yong to tell him the truth.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked out the door, a huge group of people blocked her way.
"It was you, this stinky bitch, who was meddling in other people's business and asked the county magistrate to issue the food restriction order, wasn't it?" The leader, Sun Ming, looked at Su An viciously.
He was the largest grain merchant in the county. After the grain restriction order was issued, he immediately sent people to investigate and soon found out that Su An was the culprit.
This allowed him to catch the culprit.
Su An's expression tightened and he took two steps back without leaving a trace.
The man was dressed in silk and satin, and was well-fed and strong. He mentioned the grain restriction order, so he must be a grain boss who was affected.
She frowned slightly and tilted her head in a confused manner: "I don't know what you are talking about. I am just an ordinary citizen."
"Haha, you ruined our plans, but now you're scared?"
Sun Ming didn't buy it at all. He had his own spies and definitely didn't find the wrong person.
He looked at Su An as if he were looking at a dead person, sneered and ordered the strong men he brought with him, "Beat this stinky woman to death for me, kill the chicken to scare the monkey, and let everyone know the consequences of meddling in other people's business!"
not good!
Su An's eyes suddenly turned cold, and she stopped pretending. She pointed at Sun Ming's nose and cursed: "Go to hell with killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, you stinky turtle who eats human blood buns in a disguised skin. It's good, so that I don't have to come to my door. This time, I will beat you to death for the sake of justice!"
Her sudden outburst of momentum startled Sun Ming and everyone else, and they hesitated in surprise.
So arrogant? Does this little bitch have another trick up her sleeve?
Little did they know that Su An took advantage of their confusion, smashed the basket in his hand, and then turned around and slipped out to the side.
Only a fool would fight them!
Seeing this, Sun Ming immediately reacted and shouted with a distorted face, "This damn bluffing bitch, hurry up! Kill her right here!"
Su An was about to get out, but the burly man next to her came to his senses and grabbed her hair and pulled her back.
"hiss--"
Su An grimaced in pain and was about to struggle when the figure of a secret guard suddenly appeared in front of him, grabbed the sturdy man's hand and threw him over his shoulder!
Su An only felt his scalp relax, and before he could react, the secret guard rushed into the group of strong men, punching with the left and kicking with the right.
I don’t know how strong the force was, but anyone who was hit by a few moves from the secret guards would soon faint from the pain while wailing.
In a few seconds, the dozen or so strong men were lying on the ground with bruises and unconscious.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Sun Ming tried to run away, but was kicked sharply and fell flat on his face, losing two of his front teeth.
Without waiting for him to scream, the secret guard tied him up and gagged him, then picked him up and threw him in front of Su An.
"Mmmm--" Sun Ming looked at Su An, his expression filled with fear and shock.
"Be quiet!" The secret guard coldly stepped on his face again and crushed him to the ground in disgust.
Su An opened his eyes wide, and through the upturned and beautiful eyebrows of the secret guard, he could tell that it was a woman.
"Wow! You're so handsome, sister!"
That skill just now, that dazzling display, that dancing dragon and phoenix.
Just like that, it fell from the sky!
An Wu was also stunned. He didn't expect Su An to be so... so straightforward?
Facing Su An's sincere admiring eyes, her face covered with black cloth showed heat, and she coughed shyly: "Ahem, Miss Su, you can call me An Wu."
"This person is trying to harm Miss Su. I can't make a decision on my own. I have to take him back to the master for punishment!"
"You're awesome. I'll listen to you." Su An nodded with a smile, looked at Sun Ming who was crying out in vain, and kicked him again to vent his anger.
"You are crazy, there is always someone stronger than you, you are stupid!"
An Wu's face turned red again. It was Su An who was proud, but why was she so embarrassed...
I heard An Yi say that it was a demon that could bewitch people, and it turns out that it has some tendency to do so.
An Wu's face was burning with anger, and he quickly carried Sun Ming back, while Su An followed happily.
Sun Ming was quickly brought before Fu Zhun.
After learning what had happened, Fu Zhun's dark eyes darkened, and his sharp and cold gaze fell on Sun Ming.
"How do you know that the person who sued is Su An?"
When the master interrogated him, An Wu immediately untied the gag on Sun Ming.
Sun Ming knew he had hit a wall. He broke out in a cold sweat and lost his arrogance. "I, I don't know. I heard that girl had caused trouble in the granary, so I guessed..."
Fu Zhun's eyes grew darker, and his voice was chilling as he spoke, "Grain prices have increased, and many people are causing trouble. You're just a greedy grain merchant, and you don't have the ability to see through things like that."
After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes slightly and ordered, "He's still stubborn. Pull out his tongue first."
Su An on the side couldn't help but shrink his neck.
She knew that this was the procedure for the interrogation, but she still had to sigh that when Fu Zhun spoke with a cold face, the intimidating aura around him was really not to be underestimated.
Sun Ming's face turned pale, and he swallowed his saliva furiously and said, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you! I bribed Li Si, the bailiff in the county government office. He told me that the girl who filed the complaint was called Su An, so I took people to follow her all the way. I just wanted to vent my anger!"
"I confessed everything, please spare my life!"
Fu Zhun indifferently raised his finger and tapped the armrest: "Take him away, cripple his limbs, and hand him over to Lin Yong for sentencing."
"Then arrest those merchants who disrupt the market and send them to the county government for punishment."
"Yes." An Wu accepted the order and dragged the screaming Sun Ming away.
