Waste prince: Why do you force me to be emperor?

"Da da da......"

An ordinary carriage, an ordinary horse, an ordinary carriage, sitting in an ordinary carriage, the extremely noble Emperor of Great Xia, driving all the way to the refugee camp!

inside the carriage.

Eunuch Wei was busy putting on a fake beard on Emperor Xia, dressing him up as a man of formidable temperament!

Later, Eunuch Wei also disguised himself as a kind old housekeeper!

As for the accompanying imperial guards, each one also put on a simple disguise, striving to make themselves unrecognizable to acquaintances!

At this time.

"Selling steamed buns!"

Street vendors shouted loudly: "White and filling white flour steamed buns!"

“The cheapest steamed buns ever!”

"One copper coin each!"

"Do not miss passing through!"

"You can't buy a copper coin and suffer a loss, you can't buy a copper coin and be cheated..."

Emperor Xia opened the curtain of the carriage with great interest and looked at the fireworks all over the street. The seriousness on his face slowly disappeared and his expression slowly became softer!

Ahead, there is an Imperial City breakfast stall!

There is a young couple who owns the stall. The man is responsible for shouting and serving steamed buns and porridge to the diners, while the woman is responsible for looking after the stall and collecting money.

"Buy steamed buns!"

I saw an old woman in patched clothes walking up to the steamed bun stall and saying with disbelief: "Little steamed bun, aren't steamed buns ten copper coins each?"

"One copper coin each...Are you selling at a loss?

The old woman stood in front of the bamboo steamer where the steamed buns were steaming. She smelled the fragrance of the steamed buns in the cage and her stomach made a hunger sound. She cautiously took out a copper coin and said with a tentative look on her face: "Little steamed bun, I only have one copper coin..." ..Can I buy a steamed bun?”

"of course can!"

The hostess of the steamed bun stall took the copper coin and took out a large white-faced steamed bun from the steamer: "Here!"

"Can you really buy it?"

The old woman looked a little dazed, and quickly took the steamed bun in her hand, took a big bite, chewed it and said, "You didn't think you were poor, so you gave it to me on purpose, right?"

"Hehehe..."

The hostess of the steamed bun stall smiled quite handsomely: "Grandma Long, have you just come back from outside the city?"

"Yes!"

"No wonder you don't know..."

"what do you know?"

"King Huangzhou has been named the Prince of Daxia by His Majesty the Emperor because of his meritorious service in quelling the chaos!"

"I know this!"

Granny Long was chewing the steamed buns while speaking with some unclear enunciation: "I heard that the King of Huangzhou was granted the title of crown prince, and the rebellion in the imperial capital has been put down, so I dare to come back now!"

"No wonder..."

"clang......"

I saw a young diner drop a copper coin and said, "Madam boss, a white-flour steamed bun!"

"Good!"

The hostess of the steamed bun stall took out the steamed buns from the steamer and handed them out: "You can eat well!"

The young diner took the steamed bun and said to Grandma Long: "Grandma Long, the price of food has been reduced by His Highness the Prince for us poor people!"

"Did it come down?"

"Yes!"

"After the rebellion ended, the imperial court confiscated the grain depots of those wealthy families, as well as those grain merchants who were struggling to make money for the country. The confiscated grains were piled up into countless grain mountains. It seemed that it was impossible to finish them all, but it was really impossible to finish them! "

"I have never seen so much food in my life!"

"Later, the prince ordered that part of the grain be transported to the border and part of it be collected into the treasury!"

"Then, Huangzhou Department Store replaced the previous grain merchants in selling grain. A bushel of rice only sold for one tael of silver, and a bushel of white flour only sold for one tael of silver. We were so happy that we went crazy!"

Granny Long frowned: "That's it!"

"But even if it's so cheap, the old woman doesn't have enough money to buy food!"

"You can have it!"

The young man pointed out: "The imperial capital is now a big construction site. As long as people are not lazy and work on the court's construction site, they can earn ten copper coins a day, which is enough to support themselves!"

"Long Po Po, you can buy ten of these white flour buns!"

"Really?"

"of course it's true!"

The young man left quickly after speaking: "I'm going to the construction site right now!"

"Long Po Po, eat slowly!"

Grandma Long looked at the young man's energetic back and murmured: "But Grandma Long is old and can't even work at the court construction site. She will be a burden to future generations even if she is alive!"

"Who said that?"

The hostess of the steamed bun stall said cheerfully: "Although you can't do the work on the construction site, Huangzhou Department Store will recruit people like you. The work is easy and the salary is five copper coins a day!"

"Really?"

"of course it's true!"

"I heard that the Huangzhou Department Store is recruiting old people from the Imperial City to make paper boxes and make matchboxes!"

Grandma Long was stunned: "What matchbox?"

"I do not know either!"

The hostess of the steamed bun stall shook her head and said: "I heard that the box is used to store a new specialty in Huangzhou. What is it called...matches!"

"Yes! It's a match!"

"It is said that after we have this thing, we won't need to use the fire seal in the future!"

"In the future, fires in the imperial capital will be greatly reduced!"

Grandma Long was overjoyed: "Old lady, go as soon as you finish eating this steamed bun!"

"Why don't you go to the imperial construction site to earn wages?"

“Because you can earn more by selling steamed buns!”

Little Mantou said: "The imperial court has posted a notice to encourage us to do business. As long as we operate honestly, we will get discounts when we go to Huangzhou Department Store to purchase goods, and it only costs [-]% of the money of ordinary people!"

"And the announcement also said that as long as we cheat and don't pass off the bad as the good, we will be exempted from the stall tax for one year!"

"As long as we maintain business integrity for ten years, we can escape from the humble status!"

In Daxia, all businessmen are humble!

"is it?"

Grandma Long's eyes brightened: "What about the heavy taxes imposed by those stupid officials in the past?"

"Exempted too!"

Speaking of this matter, Xiao Mantou's eyes shone, full of yearning for a better life: "After the prince entered the East Palace, he immediately abolished those messy taxes!"

"Not only that, I heard that the prince wants to reduce our taxes, and the results will be announced soon!"

"Great!"

Granny Long, who was rarely generous, took out two more copper coins from her waist and threw them on the stall generously: "Give me two more steamed buns. After eating them, I will go to Huangzhou Department Store to find a job!"

"Good!"

The hostess of the steamed bun stall handed out two steaming steamed buns: "For three copper coins, Grandma Long can eat for a whole day!"

"Yes!"

Granny Long picked up the steamed buns and left the steamed bun stall. Under the sunlight, her pockmarked face flashed with an inexplicable light, and she murmured: "I finally see the hope of living!"

"What a holy prince who saves people in need!"

At this time.

"parking!"

Emperor Xia asked the driver to stop the carriage: "Old man, give me a copper!"

Eunuch Wei was stunned: "Your Majesty, would you like to buy some steamed buns to try?"

"What do you say?"

"Also, call me Master Zhou!"

"Yes!"

"Master Zhou, slave... no, I don't even take copper coins with me when I go out!"

"I only have money on me!"

Emperor Xia stuck his head out of the car window and placed a ten-tael silver ingot firmly on the stall: "Boss, let's have a steamed bun!"

Looking at the big silver ingot, Xiao Mantou scratched his head and said, "Sir, we are a small business and we really don't have that much silver to supply you!"

"How about... I'll treat you to a white flour steamed bun!"

The little steamed bun took out a white flour steamed bun from the bamboo steamer: "No money!"

Emperor Xia took the steamed buns and asked with profound meaning: "Your steamed buns are sold so cheaply, but you can't make much money!"

"Just enough to live on!"

Little Mantou smiled with a smile on his face: "Making money in business is a matter of time and effort. Gold and silver medals are not as good as the reputation of customers. As long as the reputation is good, my business will be good in the future and my life will be able to continue smoothly!"

"what......"

The emperor was a little surprised: "It's quite interesting, and he does it all... Did someone teach you how to do business?"

"Yes!"

"Who?"

"The shopkeepers of Huangzhou Department Store!"

Little Mantou was afraid that the nobles would look down on the shopkeepers of Huangzhou Department Store, so he quickly added: "They are outstanding businessmen taught by the prince himself, and they are all the best business people in the world!"

"Businessmen are considered lowly in Daxia, why do you still want to be a businessman?"

"Because Daxia needs me!"

The little mantou said solemnly: "The prince said that if there are farmers in the world, the people of Daxia will not be hungry, and if there are merchants in the world, Daxia will be rich!"

"Little Mantou wants to be a big businessman who will make Daxia rich!"

"I still want to get rid of my lowly status!"

"is it?"

Emperor Xia became even more interested: "Businessmen can make Daxia rich... What is the truth behind this?"

"You can't even explain it!"

The little mantou handed the ingot of silver back: "If you are lucky enough to meet His Highness, please ask His Highness for advice!"

"it is good!"

Emperor Xia took the money and said, "Thank you for the steamed buns!"

"Guests go slowly!"

"it is good!"

Emperor Xia took a bite of the steamed bun and it tasted very good!

He said seriously: "Little Mantou, if you shine brightly, all your wishes will come true!"

"Thank you for your encouragement!"

"gone!"

"Noble man, walk slowly!"

Xia Tian looked at the steamed bun with great interest: "Old man, let this little steamed bun's wish come true!"

"Yes!"

"What do you think the prince did?"

"I don't dare to judge!"

"But I think His Highness the Crown Prince did the right thing!"

"Your Majesty, is the prince's approach called recuperation?"

"Correct!"

Emperor Xia was in a good mood: "The prince is a great talent, and his ability to govern the world is far beyond my imagination!"

"Although it's a little worse than me, it's still pretty good!"

"pity......."

Suddenly, a cold light shot out from the depths of Emperor Xia's eyes, which frightened Eunuch Wei!

at this time.

"Whoosh..."

I saw a strange shadow kidnapping a child at the entrance of the alley ahead, and disappeared in a flash!

Emperor Xia narrowed his eyes: "Follow me and have a look!"

"I want to see where he wants to lead me?"

"I want to see what he is going to do?"
