The Royal’s Little Lady Chapter 171: People come to the capital with ulterior motives

"Even if the cost price is twenty-five cents, how can those stores sell it so expensively?"

"Lu Cheng said, that's not under his jurisdiction." Mr. Si felt sick when he thought of Lu Cheng's face! But when he thought about what the other party said, he felt powerless all over his body.

I thought I would be able to make great achievements in such a small place. There is no power struggle or intrigue, and he can work for the welfare of the people in a down-to-earth manner.

But...

Why is the small town of Xinhe so deeply affected by power struggles?

Chu Yingying: "Then if your Excellency directly gives the order, how many bookstores will be closed down?"

Such a high price is contrary to the original intention of the court. Should the government have the right to shut them down directly?

After all, the ancient government had great power.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Si shook his head in embarrassment: "Yingying, things are not that simple. Even if I force those bookstores to close, if the printing house stops printing for all the bookstores in Xinhe Town, What? When the time comes, students and businessmen will have to complain without anyone else."

Sometimes, it’s not as simple as just moving.

Chu Yingying bit her lip.

Is that all there is to it? She gave up movable type printing, not so that those merchants could make money! Don't let it become a tool in the hands of others!

"Hey, let me think of a way. Don't be anxious first, don't be impulsive!" Mr. Si repeatedly warned.

He still knows Chu Yingying quite well. This child is so stubborn. Mr. Si is worried that Chu Yingying will go against Lu Cheng just to express her anger!

At that time, things will be in trouble.

Chu Yingying nodded: "I know."

After that, it was a silent dinner.

Chu Yingying originally thought that the matter would take a while to be resolved, but who knew it would be resolved the next day!

Chu Yingying was shocked, straightened up and asked: "Xiaotian, say it again."

She was reading travel notes at home, but her brother Xiaotian suddenly ran in panting and pulling one of her friends.

Tell her: "Second sister! The prices of books in bookstores have been reduced! Other bookstores can also print travel notes!"

But how is this possible?

Even if Mr. Si comes up with a solution, will Lu Cheng compromise so easily?

Chu Xiaotian calmed down for a while, then picked up the milk tea on the small table and drank it all in one gulp. Some of it flowed out onto his collar.

"Here, wipe it quickly."

Chu Yingying handed him a handkerchief.

"Oh."

Chu Xiaotian said while wiping: "Today we want to go to the bookstore to buy a book about the travel notes that Master Lu mentioned. Who knew that there was a commotion in front of the bookstore owned by Boss Lu..."

It turns out that some students made trouble in the bookstore opened by Boss Lu today. They felt that the price was too high. They were talking about Wei Congti's excuse for getting food yesterday.

As for Boss Lu, he had the same attitude. Who knew that a man suddenly appeared, claiming to be an official from the capital or something? When he heard about this incident while passing by, he immediately came out to stop it, and then thoroughly investigated the printing factory!

The final result is that Lu Cheng is imprisoned and will be sent to the capital for investigation soon. Then the printing factory will open printing to all bookstores, and will also print travel notes and other books, and the price will be lowered!

"...The Four Books and Five Classics cannot exceed forty words! The prices of other categories of books have been reduced according to certain rules."

Some books are of little value, but some are extremely valuable, so we cannot generalize them.

Chu Xiaotian happily took out a travel diary, "Second sister, look, the travel diary I want to buy, Master spent seventy cents on it a few days ago, and I only spent forty cents today. !"

Maybe it’s because he lived a hard life when he was a child, so even if his family has money now, Chu Xiaotian will not waste it, but will save it frugally.

Usually Fang Chu Fenfen and Chu Yingying would occasionally give Xiaotian some pocket money, allowing him to occasionally buy some snacks for himself or buy something he wanted.

As for Chu Xiaotian, he saved every penny. A few days ago, when Chu Fenfen celebrated her sixteenth birthday, he bought Chu Fenfen a hairpin.

Although it was the most ordinary silver hairpin, it spent all Xiaotian’s savings.

I still remember Xiaotian holding the hairpin and saying to Chu Fenfen: "Sister, I don't have money now, so I can't buy you a good one. I will study hard and practice martial arts, and I will earn money to buy you the best one in the future!" ”

I was moved at the time, but Chu Fenfen hugged Chu Xiaotian and cried loudly. Fang was also completely moved.

Even Chu Yingying’s eyes were red.

The topic is off topic, but coming back, with so much money left, Chu Xiaotian is particularly beautiful: "That second prince is really a good man, a great good man!"

"Second Prince?"

"Yes, everyone said that the high-ranking official who came from the capital today is some kind of relative of the second prince. He followed the second prince's instructions and went around to check whether any bookstores were selling books at higher prices."

Chu Yingying frowned.

How could things be such a coincidence?

And as soon as a prince was involved, Chu Yingying felt inexplicably that things were not that simple.

But since the prince was involved, Chu Yingying didn’t dare to investigate anymore~IndoMTL.com~ for fear of getting angry.

"Second sister, the prices of books have been reduced, aren't you happy?"

"I'm happy, go and play."

"Okay."

After Chu Xiaotian left, Chu Yingying held her chin in thought, always feeling that something was wrong.

Chu Yingying couldn’t figure it out, so she simply didn’t think about it. I felt so depressed that I couldn't read any more. After I stayed down and put on my shoes, I took my little donkey and planned to go back to the village for a walk and check out the situation.

Although it is fun to be a hands-off shopkeeper, you still have to inspect it occasionally to see if there are any problems.

If you don't look at it all the time, you won't be able to find any problems, and sooner or later you will be doomed.

Who knew that when I came out, I would meet the scholar from the bookstore that day.

The scholar also saw him and came up with a smile to say hello: "Hello, Miss Chu Er, my name is Wei Congti and I live nearby, but this is the first time we have met."

Chu Yingying nodded, also looking surprised: "What a coincidence."

Then there was nothing to say.

The little donkey didn't know if it was not full, so it kept rubbing against Chu Yingying's chest, which made Chu Yingying quite embarrassed. She could only let go of the donkey and hide further away.

I really didn’t realize that this big gray guy was so sexy!

Big Gray is the name of this little donkey.

After Chu Yingying gave her beloved little donkey such a name, everyone laughed at her for a long time.

Everyone thinks, since you have chosen a name, you should choose a nice name, Dahui or something, it is really... down-to-earth.

Chu Yingying felt that it was simple, clear and very distinctive, so she insisted on not changing it.

Wei Zongti was also a little embarrassed and looked away.

When Chu Yingying avoided the donkey, he spoke again.

"How do Miss Chu Er feel about today's events?"
