Gourmet Girl: Becoming a Royal Merchant Started from Selling Buns

Following his command, the guards behind him rushed in and headed straight for the warehouse of the pharmacy.

Seeing this scene, the medicine boy was so scared that his face turned pale. He quickly hid behind a cabinet and didn't dare to say another word.

The owner of the drug store, who was taking a nap upstairs, heard the noise and pushed the door open impatiently. He was about to scold the medicine boy, but when he saw the scene in front of him, he immediately lost all sleepiness.

The drugstore owner hurried downstairs and anxiously stepped forward to stop them.

"Put it down, put it all down! You're robbing and plundering, how are you any different from a robber?"

"My hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, my thousand-year-old ginseng... Do you know how much these are worth? Stop right there!"

But no matter how loudly he shouted, no one paid any attention to him and continued to carry the herbs.

Seeing that all the medicinal herbs in the warehouse had been moved out and were almost empty, he became so anxious that he felt dizzy and almost fainted.

The next moment, he couldn't help but have bloodshot eyes, pointing at Fu Zhun and cursing loudly.

"You're the King of Zhenbei, you're a hero who protects his country and his people. You're nothing but a hypocrite who deceives the world and steals fame! You dare to so brazenly rob others of their property in the street today? Aren't you going to lead your troops in rebellion tomorrow? I will report this to the court and demand an explanation!"

As soon as these words were spoken, even the medicine boy couldn't help but gasp, shrinking his neck and stepping back, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible.

Su An was so angry that his face turned red. He put his hands on his hips and was about to argue with him, but he saw Fu Zhun sneer first, staring at the drugstore owner with hawk-like eyes, and speaking in a gloomy tone.

"Report it to the court? You've been harming the people and driving up drug prices. According to current laws, you should be beheaded. Now, I've only raided your shop, which is already a pardon. If you truly feel wronged, why not report it to the government?"

"But before you go to the government office, you insulted me and disrespected the important officials of the court. I must settle this account with you."

Then, he tapped his fingers on the wheelchair, glanced at Jian Yi, and said coldly.

"Jian Yi, drag him away and give him ten big blows!"

Upon hearing this, the owner of the drugstore turned pale, his lips trembled, and fear appeared in his eyes.

"You, do you still have any respect for the law?"

Jian Yi was filled with anger. He picked up the owner of the drugstore, grabbed a stool, and threw the owner onto the stool like trash.

The boards fell one after another, and the drugstore owner screamed in pain, the shrill sound kept echoing in his ears.

It was a very bloody scene, but Su An was so excited that he couldn't help clapping his hands and cheering loudly.

"Okay, good fight!"

Perhaps inspired by her words, the people around her couldn't help but cheer.

"Boss Wei is a bully who despises the poor and loves the rich. I've always disliked him, but I never thought he would end up like this. It's really satisfying! Kill this black-hearted bastard!"

After ten strokes of the cane, Boss Wei was limping as he walked, and he dared not say a word of objection.

I was originally worried about whether the people could wait for the batch of medicinal materials to arrive, but now the medicinal materials have arrived, haven’t they?

Seeing that most of the herbs had been moved, Su An hurriedly called the shop assistants to prepare the herbs according to the prescription, distributed them to the onlookers, and gave them careful instructions.

"Take these herbs home first. Boil them three times a day for seven days, and your illness will be cured. When boiling the herbs, remember to follow the prescription I gave you. Don't be careless."

The people were very grateful and thanked him repeatedly.

But the medicine shop had limited medicinal materials. She distributed all the stolen herbs, and some people still didn't get any.

Seeing that the medicinal materials were gone, the people began to feel restless.

Suddenly, someone in the crowd said something.

"I know there are a few other shops that charge the same price as them. Why not take them all over?"

Good idea. When doing things, we should treat everyone equally and not favor one over the other, right?

Su An smiled and looked at Fu Zhun, as if asking for his opinion.

The latter met her gaze, raised the corners of his lips slightly, and raised his eyebrows in response.

"lead the way!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the people took the initiative to step forward to lead the way and pointed out those unscrupulous pharmacies one by one.

The pharmacies in the city are all connected, and they will know about the slightest movement.

No matter how arrogant they act, they are still the people.

As the saying goes, good people do not fight with officials, not to mention that Fu Zhun is the famous King of Zhenbei.

Seeing Fu Zhun and his men coming, Boss Song was so scared that his face turned pale. Without waiting for Fu Zhun to order a search, he took the initiative to kneel in front of the door of the drugstore with his employees and begged him for mercy.

"Your Highness, I bow to you. It was indeed my fault for driving up the price of the medicine. I will have the price lowered immediately. I beg Your Highness to be magnanimous and forgive me this time!"

After saying this, Boss Song started to kowtow loudly.

"If you had known this would happen, why did you do it in the first place? When these people begged you, why didn't you think of giving them a chance? Now that the truth has been revealed, you beg for mercy, but it's too late! How can you learn your lesson if I don't teach you a lesson?"

Su An stood behind Fu Zhun, curled his lips and snorted, then retorted unhappily.

These words left Boss Song speechless, and his expression became even more anxious.

Seeing that Fu Zhun was reluctant to speak, Boss Song broke out in a cold sweat and became increasingly flustered. He couldn't help but cautiously ask what he meant.

"Forgive my ignorance, but I don't know what Your Majesty means."

"Since you have done something wrong, you should pay the price for it. If you are willing to give the herbs to the people in the city for free, I will let this matter go."

Fu Zhun spoke calmly, his tone leaving no room for doubt.

Upon hearing this, Boss Song was stunned for a moment, then a smile uglier than crying appeared on his face, and he whispered in defense.

"It's not that I don't want to, but these herbs are all I have. If I can't even get my money back, how am I going to live in the future? Your Highness, you should at least leave me a way out, right?"

Hearing him say this, Fu Zhun raised the corners of his lips, chuckled, and interrupted him directly.

"Don't worry about that. I've already requested disaster relief funds from the imperial court, and they'll be allocated soon. When that happens, I'll leave you a glimmer of hope."

Now that things had come to this, Boss Song had no choice but to give in.

"In that case, I would like to thank His Majesty first."

After saying that, he turned around and scolded the guy behind him.

"What are you all standing there for, you idiots? Hurry up and help the prince move the herbs!"

Soon, all the medicinal materials in the pharmacy were moved out and distributed to the people in the city.

The people got the medicinal materials without spending a penny, and they surrounded Su An and Fu Zhun and kowtowed to express their gratitude.

"Thank you, Your Highness, and Miss Su, for saving our lives. We will never forget your kindness. Although we are common people, if Your Highness and Miss Su need us in the future, we will do our best to help them."

"Yes! The prince and Miss Su are both kind-hearted people. From now on, even if we have to go through fire and water, as long as you ask, we will definitely not say a word."
