"Have you heard? Last night, another heart-robbing demon appeared in the city."

"I heard that the Wang family boy who was on duty was frightened to death, and he still keeps talking nonsense!"

"What's going on in this world? It's getting colder and colder. It's already April, and it's still snowing all day long. Now, some kind of heart-wrenching demon has come out and is trying to stop people from living."

"Don't talk nonsense, be careful of retribution."

"Retribution? How else can I get retribution? The children at home cry all day long because of the cold, and the charcoal is getting more and more expensive. If this goes on, I can't even afford to burn it!"

"Be content. If it weren't for the Queen, I don't know what the price of charcoal would be today. Those profiteers are really hateful!"

"Speaking of which, Li's, the largest store in Dashang, suddenly stopped doing the charcoal business. It's strange. Earlier, the charcoal they sold was quite cheap."

"Someone went to Li's store and asked, and it is true that they don't do it."

"Why? In a good business, there must be a reason why you won't do it if you say you won't do it."

"I don't know. Several shopkeepers said that their boss personally gave the order. As for the specific reason, no one knows."

"How about we go and ask. Li Yuan is not far from this West Street. If the Li family is willing to start the charcoal fire business again, we can accept it even if the price is slightly higher than before."

"That's right, go and ask what's going on."

While they were talking, several people walked together in the direction of Li Yuan.

"Young Master."

Li Yuan, West Wing, when Li Ziye was learning the Flying Immortal Art in Hefeng Manlou, a young man came quickly and said anxiously, "There are many people outside blocking the door of the house, wanting to see the eldest lady or the young master.

.”

"People are blocking the door?"

Li Ziye was stunned for a moment and asked, "Is something wrong?"

"They want to ask why the Li family no longer does the charcoal business?" the boy reported.

"For business matters, go see my sister." Li Ziye said in a lack of interest.

"Young Master, the eldest lady and Miss Hongzhu went out early in the morning and haven't come back yet." The young man said helplessly.

"Going out?"

Li Ziye looked slightly startled, no wonder he hadn't seen Sister Hongzhu floating here and there today.

"The hour is up."

While the two were talking, Feng Manlou spoke calmly to the side, "You can go back."

"This, does this count?"

Li Ziye said in surprise, "The time I spend talking to others cannot be counted!"

"It has indeed been an hour since I started teaching you." Feng Manlou said seriously.

"How can you calculate it like this? It's so unreasonable!"

Li Ziye was very dissatisfied and said, "Mr. Feng, you, a senior, have the nerve to argue with a junior like me for a moment!"

"Why are you embarrassed?"

Feng Manlou asked in confusion, "Isn't this what it should be?"

When Li Ziye heard this, his breath stagnated in his chest. For a moment, he couldn't find anything to say to refute.

"I'm going to see what's going on outside the house!"

After a long time, Li Ziye came back to his senses and walked out of the west wing depressedly.

He felt that Mr. Feng had a very bad character and was not popular at all!

Not long after.

Outside Li Garden, Li Ziye walked out.

When I saw a bunch of people in front of the house, I couldn't help but be shocked.

What is this for, a demonstration?

The Li family didn't do anything harmful to nature.

"This is our young master. If you have any questions, you can ask our young master."

Outside the mansion, several guards responsible for maintaining order saw the young master coming out and hurriedly said.

"Master Li."

In front of everyone, an elderly man saw the sweaty and even embarrassed young man in front of him. He hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Why doesn't the Li family do the charcoal business?"

"What's wrong, old man?"

Li Ziye stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and said, "Too many people are engaged in the charcoal business. My Li family no longer does it. What happened?"

"Master Li."

At this time, a middle-aged man next to the old man shouted, "The price of charcoal is too expensive now. When the Li family did the charcoal business in the past, the prices were very cheap. We would like to ask if the Li family can restart the charcoal business, even if

It doesn’t matter if it’s a little more expensive than before.”

"Has the price of Fotan gone up again?"

After hearing this, Li Ziye finally understood the intentions of so many people in front of him, and asked doubtfully, "Haven't the Queen and the eldest son's family already suppressed the price of charcoal?"

"Master Li doesn't know something."

The old man who spoke earlier said with a bitter look on his face, "The price of charcoal has only been suppressed for less than a month, and it has risen rapidly again. Those cheap charcoal are not even available to ordinary people like us, and they have been bought and hoarded by those profiteers."

, and now they are selling them to us ordinary people at a high price."

"Fuck you!"

When Li Ziye heard this, he immediately became angry.

The Tao is as high as one foot and the devil is as high as one foot!

It's rare for him to do good things, but those grandsons dare to trip him up!

"Old man, you go home and wait. I will solve this matter and I will definitely let you use cheap charcoal!"

Soon, Li Ziye recovered his mind and looked at the people in front of him with a very serious expression.

"Is it true, Mr. Li, are the Li family going to start the charcoal business again?"

In front of the house, a group of people said with excitement on their faces.

"It's not my Li family."

Li Ziye looked at the people in front of him and said sternly, "To be honest with you, the Li family's charcoal business is not discontinued, but has been entrusted to the eldest son's family with full authority. The empress is considerate of the people, so she will sell all the charcoal in the Li family's inventory.

Packaged it, I want a low price

Selling to the common people, I have never thought of such a thing. Don't worry, everyone, since the Queen intends to let the people use cheap charcoal, she will not ignore this matter. You go home and wait. I believe that soon, the price of charcoal will be announced.

It will become cheaper again!”

"Is it really going to be cheap?"

More than a dozen people obviously couldn't believe it and asked again and again.

"Li Yuan is right here and can't escape. Why should I lie to everyone?"

Li Ziye showed a kind smile on his face and said, "If you don't believe me, don't you still believe in the Queen? In the beginning, wasn't it the Queen who helped bring down the price of charcoal? Don't worry, everyone, the Queen is benevolent.

You are kind and will not sit idly by."

In front of the house, everyone looked at each other, and finally dispersed amid hesitation and hesitation.

"Prepare the carriage and go to Changsun Mansion."

Seeing the people disperse, Li Ziye's face darkened and he said.

"yes!"

A boy took the order and went to prepare the carriage.

A quarter of an hour later.

Li Ziye got on the carriage and rushed to Changsun Mansion.

"Auntie, you don't know that the monster yesterday was really powerful, but your nephew is even more powerful..."

In the accounting room of Changsun Mansion, Changsun Fengyu was bragging happily about his heroic performance in catching monsters. On the side, Changsun Nanqiao looked at the account book without saying a word, paying no attention to the fool in front of him.

"Your Majesty, the third young master of the Li family would like to see you."

At this time.

A young boy walked over quickly and responded respectfully.

"The third son of the Li family?"

The eldest grandson Fengyu was slightly startled, what was that boy doing? He hadn't finished blowing yet, and he couldn't let his aunt know that that guy hacked to death yesterday's monster.

"Ahem."
