Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

A look of amazement flashed in the eyes of the Shi family head. He had seen many beauties, but he had never seen such a stunningly beautiful girl.

With a captivating figure, snow-white skin, and exquisitely alluring features, even with her cold expression, she was already a peerless beauty. If she were to smile, one could only imagine her unparalleled elegance.

Is Zhou Li resorting to a honey trap because he can't borrow money?

However, if Zhou Li were to offer him such a beauty, he wouldn't mind bringing more grain.

"Zhou Li, you can't handle this yourself, so you've brought a young lady here to give to me?"

When Zhou Li saw that the head of the Shi family dared to have such thoughts about Song Ruozhen, a look of disbelief flashed in his eyes. He quickly said, "Head of the Shi family, watch your mouth! This is General Song's daughter!"

However, Song Zhiyu acted faster than Zhou Li.

"Snapped!"

Song Zhiyu smashed the scabbard of his sword directly into the face of the Shi family head. The loud sound made everyone's hearts tremble, and they felt a sharp pain.

"what--"

The head of the Shi family screamed and touched his mouth, which was bleeding from the blow. He even felt his front teeth starting to loosen.

However, his screams were abruptly cut off when he met Song Zhiyu's cold, stern gaze.

This guy's eyes were like those of a ferocious wolf; the menacing aura within them was terrifying, and he dared not provoke him at all.

Song Zhiyu was furious. This blind fool dared to covet his younger sister. He was old enough to be a father, not to mention his ugly old face. Hitting him would be like giving him plastic surgery!

As expected, Fifth Sister was absolutely right. There was still more to make him angry. He should stop talking and just take action.

The head of the Shi family never expected that the person in front of him was General Song's daughter. His face turned extremely ugly. Although he felt aggrieved, he dared not say anything.

The others looked at each other, none daring to say anything, though some twitched their lips, unable to suppress their laughter.

The head of the Shi family was notorious for his lust, so pretty girls would avoid the Shi family members, fearing they might be unlucky enough to be chosen as a concubine and cause trouble.

"Where is General Song?" the head of the Cao family asked.

“I invited you all here today,” Song Ruozhen said.

Upon hearing this, the head of the Shi family was already seething with anger. Knowing that General Song was not there, he waved his hand at the crowd and said, "Let's go, let's go. What a wasted trip!"

"and many more."

Song Ruozhen spoke, her gaze sweeping over the crowd. They had been watching from a short distance when these people arrived.

After Zhou Li's introduction, she already knew who was worth talking to and who was just a troublemaker.

The head of the Shi family stopped and glared fiercely at Song Ruozhen. "It's a waste of our time for a young lady like you to call us here. We don't have time to deal with you!"

"You're busy, you can leave."

Song Ruozhen glanced at the head of the Shi family indifferently, her beautiful eyes revealing undisguised disgust.

"At your age, you still don't know how to restrain yourself. I advise you to be careful of a stroke."

There was a moment of silence after these words were spoken. Everyone looked at the head of the Shi family in disbelief, and then looked at Song Ruozhen in shock.

This girl is incredibly audacious to say such a thing!

Song Zhiyu and Zhou Li also had stiff expressions, but Song Ruozhen remained calm. "I am a doctor, and I am here to offer my advice. Whether you listen or not is up to you."

Only then did everyone realize that General Song's daughter was actually a doctor. However, she was quite capable to be able to see the problem with the head of the Shi family at a glance!

They were all old acquaintances in Pingyang City and had heard some things about the Shi family head, especially the fact that he had bought a lot of medicine in order to regain his former glory.

Even though the head of the Shi family was thick-skinned, his face flushed red with anger when his secret was exposed to his face.

"I invited you all here to discuss a business deal," Song Ruozhen said calmly.

"Isn't it just to make us lower grain prices?" the Shi family head said with a dark face.

Song Ruozhen nodded, "That's right, I do hope that everyone can lower grain prices."

The Cao family head and the others exchanged glances and immediately waved their hands, "Let's go, let's go. Grain is already expensive, and this flood is so severe that so much fertile land has been washed away."

Even if we replant, the harvest won't be until next year. We need to stockpile grain to make ends meet; how can we just sell it like this?

"Zhou Li, we've already made things very clear before, do you really have to target us like this?"

The Yao family head immediately followed suit, playing the victim, insisting that lowering grain prices was absolutely out of the question!

Song Ruozhen ignored these troublemakers and said, "Now the price of grain has risen to eight times the normal level, and the people in the city simply cannot afford it. The grain that you have hoarded cannot be sold either."

The imperial court has dispatched the Prince of Chu and Grand Tutor Gu to handle the flood situation. Relief supplies and grain will arrive soon, and the people will no longer go hungry.

"The reason you've been unwilling to sell is simply because you want to take this opportunity to make a fortune."

I'm willing to pay a high price, but eight times is too much; four or five times is more worth considering.

"If you're willing, you can talk to me in detail. If not, I'll go to the nearby cities to buy them; I'm sure there will be plenty of people willing."

As Song Ruozhen finished speaking, everyone was taken aback.

"Four or five times the price? You want to buy it?"

When Zhou Li approached them before, he hoped they would lower the price to the lowest possible level, but now Miss Song is actually planning to pay such a high price to buy it?

How can it be?

“Yes, I want to buy it,” Song Ruozhen replied.

When Zhou Li heard that Song Ruozhen was offering such a high price, his eyes were filled with shock.

Although a lot of gold and silver treasures were unearthed yesterday, it's such a waste that so much silver was just taken away by them for nothing!

However, Song Ruozhen only gave him a look, and he had already composed himself. In any case, he would do whatever Miss Song said today.

"Four times or five times? Does Miss Song have that much silver?" the Shi family head mocked.

Don't think he can't see through what this girl is up to. He clearly intends to take this opportunity to make them fight amongst themselves, and once one of them actually has this idea, he will defeat them one by one!

Seeing that these guys were starting to get interested, how could he not understand?

"Have you never heard of the Song family's name?" Song Ruozhen's eyes were full of arrogance. "The Song family has no shortage of money!"

Everyone's eyes lit up. The Song family of the capital was a well-known wealthy family.

They are no match for the Song family. It has been said before that the Song family is incredibly wealthy and has many businesses under their control.

If the head of the Song family hadn't joined the army later, the Song family's business would probably be even bigger now.

However, compared to the Song family before, the current Song family is even more fearsome, because not only are they engaged in business, but they have also made great achievements in war. They are rich and powerful, and ordinary businessmen would not dare to offend the Song family.

The head of the Shi family was unconvinced. "Do you think your Song family would spend your own money for the people of Pingyang City? Miss Song, do you think we're all fools?"
