You cause trouble and I collect your body, the little emperor’s aunt abuses the scumbag again
Chapter 1790: Soaring Prices
Xiaoxiao regained her spirits, "Then I'll ask someone to help buy it now. I want to take out all my money!"
Doudou glared at her and said, "You don't have to do that. Just give me some money to spend!"
"Disaster relief is the job of adults. We are just children. We just need to do our part!"
Ding Ding's brain was spinning the fastest. "How about we gather all the kids together and do a fundraiser?"
Doudou stepped forward and patted her on the head, "You two should behave yourself now, this is it, there's no rush for now!"
"Didn't mother tell you? No one knows what the situation is over there for now. The possibility of a plague is also mother's speculation. We should make all the necessary preparations here. If you spread the news carelessly, people outside will panic, and father and mother will not forgive you!"
Ding Ding shrank her neck in fear, and suddenly felt that her brother was right. She was still a little impulsive.
……
There was a great commotion in the capital city, and all the embroidery workshops were busy as hell.
There were also some gossipy people who began to speculate about the situation outside.
"Logically, it's just a flood over there. The palace wouldn't have to buy so many medicinal herbs. Do you think something might have happened over there..."
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Another person shouted, "Can you just say something like that?"
The man who spoke first shook his head. "I am worried. I heard from the doctor at Rongchuan Hall that the medicinal herbs collected by the palace are mainly for epidemic prevention!"
When the people eating in the restaurant heard this, many of them changed color.
Their capital city is not close to that place, and there have been quite a few refugees coming over there in recent times.
The rain over there has never stopped and the people can't survive. Those who have relatives in the capital will definitely come here for refuge as soon as possible.
If there really is a plague over there, the people coming over might be carrying the disease with them, so wouldn't they be in danger as well?
"Oh, I remembered that I have something else to do, so I'll go back first!"
One of them quickly stood up, and the other one also stood up quickly, "Me too!"
In the blink of an eye, the originally bustling restaurant was half empty.
The restaurant owner also looked unhappy. In a place like theirs, there were too many people coming and going every day. It was more dangerous than the homes of ordinary people.
There were also people in the restaurant who hadn't understood what was going on.
"What did they just say? Did something happen outside? Why are they all running faster than anyone else?"
Some people said nonchalantly, "Why think about those messy things? If there really is something, the court will definitely have a way to deal with it!"
"The Queen's medical skills are so superb, even if it is true, she has a way to treat it!"
These words filled many people with hope again.
"The Queen will definitely find a way, right? But I'm still very scared!"
Some people understand and just want to find comfort.
But more people are still worried that the plague is not an ordinary matter and it can really take lives.
"Don't worry, we have people in the palace to support us. The emperor is not a foolish person and will never let anything happen to us."
This statement was agreed by most people, but some people were disappointed, "I still want to hide somewhere else. I feel that the first place those people in the disaster area will choose is definitely the capital!"
Some people were chatting here, and more people had gone out to prepare things.
There is a possibility that a plague will come, so they need to prepare food and other things.
There are also various medicinal herbs.
This situation has happened before, and the prices of grain, medicinal materials, and various other things in the capital have increased significantly.
Some smarter merchants started stockpiling goods.
The store simply raised the prices of things, and when people came to buy things, they cursed the shopkeeper for being heartless after knowing the price increase, but the shopkeeper made it clear that if you want it, you can take it, but if not, forget it.
The capital city suddenly became chaotic.
When Sheng Yuhua heard the news, he was also stunned for a moment, and quickly asked his men to find out.
Hearing the speculations outside, Sheng Yuhua felt speechless.
"These people are really..."
Sheng Yuhua didn't know what to say. Everyone was trying to guess the emperor's intentions.
But I can't do anything to them.
"My queen, the prices of things out there have gone up, including food and the things for disaster relief..."
Food and medicinal materials are necessities, and we must not make any mistakes at this time.
