Sometimes you can hear crazy voices on the streets of the capital.

When everyone saw this, they just curled their lips in disdain.

These ones are really...

For ordinary people, seeing this, they couldn't help but whisper to each other, with smiles of gloating on their faces.

"Haha, damn rich man! Wasn't he very arrogant and overbearing in the past? Now he's fine. It's a pity that I don't have Xiaoyao Tea in my hand, otherwise I would make him lie on the ground and bark at me like a dog!"

"That's right! This shopkeeper Liu is such a bad guy. His family sells grain, did you know that? His scales are not big enough, it's such a rip-off!"

"I know, I know. One time I bought 20 kilograms of rice from his house, but when I weighed it at home, it was less than 19 kilograms!"

Many people couldn't help but nod their heads at this statement. It seemed that there was more than one victim.

"Then you didn't go back to find him?"

Some people asked curiously.

The person who spoke at the beginning smiled bitterly, "When I go back, a pound of rice is enough for my family to eat for a day. But she said that I must have spilled it on the way! Or I hid it secretly. She said that if I make trouble again, she will report me to the police and accuse me of blackmail!"

"I am just an ordinary citizen, I don't have much money, how can I be their opponent? In the end, I can only swallow my anger..."

Everyone...

In fact, there are more than one person who has this idea.

The less money you have, the more courageous you are, and the less you want to cause trouble.

Because they know that those without money and power are no match for the rich.

It is better to have less trouble than more. After all, there are so many victims and I am just one of them.

Those people all think this way, so the wealthy shop owners will act more brazenly.

"This is what goes around comes around, you deserve it!"

"I made so much money by doing something dishonest, but in the end, didn't I spend it all?"

"Hahaha, I heard that anyone who has touched Xiaoyao Tea will never be able to touch anyone. Just wait to die!"

Just as everyone was discussing the matter, news came again from the capital.

"Have you heard? A notice has been posted at the palace gate, saying that the Queen is kind and doesn't want to see anyone die innocently, so she and the people from the Imperial Hospital jointly set up a place to stop drinking Xiaoyao Tea!"

The people in the capital all had complicated expressions! In their minds, those rich people deserved it because of what they had done.

And the Queen is also the god in their hearts.

Although her birth is not noble, the queen has superb medical skills.

What’s more important is that the Queen also did many great things that benefited the country and the people.

Unexpectedly, this time, the Queen Mother would take action again.

"Where is that place? Isn't the Queen too kind?"

The person who just spoke sneered, "Can you say that you are kind? The Queen is not helping you for free this time. I heard that you are asking for a very high price this time!"

The crowd watching...

"You mean, the Queen will charge a fee?"

I thought it was free...

"Ten thousand taels of silver per person!"

hiss……

The onlookers could not help but gasp. They did not expect the fee to be so high. Ten thousand taels of silver, is this a number that ordinary people like them can hear? Even if they work hard all their lives, with a family of more than a dozen people, they may not be able to earn ten thousand taels of silver!

Let alone ten thousand taels, even five thousand taels is not something that ordinary people can earn.

This is simply an astronomical figure.

"Don't those people have any money left?"

Some people asked in confusion.

I feel that the Queen's threshold is quite high this time.

Someone in the crowd burst out laughing.

Everyone looked over there following the voice.

The person who just laughed was a middle-aged man in his thirties.

Seeing everyone looking at him, the man smiled brightly, "I think what the Queen did is very right. Among those who can afford to drink Xiaoyao Tea, how many are poor?"

"Besides, there isn't much silver in the treasury right now. The Queen said that all the silver we receive will be used to buy food and medicinal materials, and will be sent to the disaster area later!"

Everyone...

Suddenly, I didn’t know what to say.

Ten thousand taels of silver is indeed not cheap.

But the Queen Mother didn't accept it for her own benefit.

Especially when looking at those shopkeepers who were once wealthy but now in an extremely embarrassed state, everyone suddenly felt inexplicably relieved.

Actually, this is a good thing! It's all your fault.

Those shopkeepers had been wandering around the capital for many days, and had their subordinates sneak out to help inquire. When they found out that they could no longer buy Xiaoyao Tea, they felt like the sky had fallen. Suddenly, they heard that the Queen had a way to help them quit, and their eyes lit up.

As for the ten thousand taels of silver...
