Daming King of Punishment

"En!" After answering, Situ Wen didn't say anything else.

After the four agreed, they left the yard together and came to the street.

"Huh!" As soon as they came to the street, everyone felt something was wrong. Bai Zhuo looked around in surprise, seeing that there were only a lot of people talking everywhere just now, but suddenly there were a lot fewer people at this time. "Should we all go back to eat?"

"Their speed is really fast enough. It hasn't been long since we saw them just now. They have disappeared in a while." Song Wuya also felt very surprised. After all, there are so many people on the street. If you say go, go and go.

"Don't worry about this for now, let's buy some vegetables and go back to cook." Situ Wen reminded them, telling the two that their purpose of going to the streets was to buy vegetables, not to pay attention to the common people.

Song Wuya nodded, and didn't care about it anymore. The four of them found a rice shop on the street. After buying some rice noodles, they went to a vegetable stand on the street to buy some vegetables or meat.

It's just spring, and there are very few vegetables on the street. It's really hard for them to find them.

"I think we should buy so much first, eat the food first when we go back, and come out to buy the rest when we have a chance." Song Wuya saw that the shopping was almost done, and the meal at noon today can be cooked, and then If they buy it, they will starve.

The four of them returned the same way, and on the way, Bai Zhuo looked ahead and said suddenly: "There seems to be some movement over there."

Hearing this, Song Wuya was naturally curious, looked up and followed his gaze, and said with a smile: "Brother Bai, isn't this the place we met just now? It seems to be the pharmacy of the Chu family in front!"

"Yes! That's right. Let's go and have a look." Bai Zhuo nodded, curious in his heart, he didn't think too much about the previous matter.

Although it is not on the way, but the distance is not too far, it is no harm to go to have a look.

Situ Wen looked at the two of them and said, "You two go watch the fun, Xiaohuan and I are going back to cook!"

After saying that, he rolled his eyes at the two of them, then pulled Xiaohuan and turned away.Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo were very curious about what was going on in front of them, but they didn't care about it, they nodded and followed the sound.

"It's so lively!" The voices in the ears of the two became louder and louder after not walking far.

"Why are there so many people in front?"

As soon as the words were finished, the two saw the lively scene ahead.

The street was crowded with people, and the deserted appearance of the street before the relationship was not because the people talking about the plague had gone home to eat, but because they all gathered here.

"These people really gathered in front of the Chu family's pharmacy!" Song Wuya said that just now, but seeing it now, he was really shocked, and muttered: "Could it be that your strategy, Brother Bai, has worked so quickly? "

"If that's the case, it's really good for him. Let's go and have a look." Bai Zhuo was very excited. After all, the Chu family made him feel very embarrassed before. If something happened to the Chu family at this time, then he really deserved it. Time to gloat.

The two walked quickly to the outside of the crowd, and when they got close, the shouts of these common people fell into their ears clearly.

When Bai Zhuo was causing trouble here before, the people around him just took the attitude of watching the excitement, but now it is completely different.It can be seen that they are very excited at the moment.

"Chu family, are you still shameless?"

"That's right! Why have the medicinal materials doubled!"

"I heard that there is a plague outside the city, do you want to take the opportunity to make a lot of ill-gotten wealth?"

……

Standing behind the crowd, Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo listened to the shouts of the people around them, and felt extraordinarily happy.

Especially Bai Zhuo, he was still skeptical in his heart before, but now he heard the people shouting and scolding, he was finally sure.

"Brother Wu Ya, I didn't expect the people to start making trouble for the Chu family so soon!"

"Brother Bai, don't be too happy. Although the people have already besieged the Chu family, after all, the plague has not broken out, and the Chu family has every excuse to fool the past."

"However, the price of medicinal materials has doubled. They must not be able to justify this, unless the Chu family wants to lower the price of medicinal materials."

"Now the people of the Chu family don't seem to have anything to say. Let's continue to see how the Chu family handles this matter."

The two stood patiently behind the crowd, waiting for the people from the Chu family to come forward and give an explanation to the angry common people.

Just a few days ago, Mrs. Chu returned to the city, so I don't know how much money was thrown out to the people of Huai'an Mansion.The people who received the silver at that time must be grateful to the Chu family in their hearts.But it was only a few days' work. They heard that there was a plague outside the city, so they naturally cared about their own lives.However, at this juncture, the price of the medicinal materials sold by the Chu family has increased several times.Such an obvious move really made the people in the city have to doubt it.

"Folks, please be quiet. Listen to me."

The common people besieged the Chu family pharmacy, seeing the furious emotions of the common people, the shopkeeper who had been in the pharmacy who had been afraid to come out, saw more and more people and the situation was getting more and more serious, finally chose to stand up.

He just stood at the door, said something loudly, and kept pressing down with his hands, signaling the people around him to be quiet.

Seeing that the people from the Chu family pharmacy finally showed up, the common people gradually became quiet. After all, they just wanted an explanation from the Chu family.

Seeing the common people quiet down, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy took a deep breath. He knew very well that this kind of quietness was only temporary, and as long as he couldn't convince them, the situation would only get worse.

"The price increase of medicinal materials is not because of the rumors of the plague outside the city. It's just that the cost of medicinal materials has increased this year, so the price has been raised as a last resort."

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy just said a few words, but before he finished the rest, the people around him refused to agree.

"Who are you lying to! Do you think we are fools? Why don't you raise the price sooner or later, but there is a plague outside the city, so you will raise the price?"

"That's right! That's right! If that young master hadn't said that in the morning, we wouldn't have known about it! We were kept in the dark by your Chu family, when the plague came, we would have to go bankrupt to cure the disease!"

The scene became noisy again, and the shopkeeper of the drugstore showed embarrassment on his face.Obviously, he might not be able to settle the situation in front of him, and he didn't know when the rightful master of the Chu family would show up.

The emotions of the people could not be controlled for a while, but fortunately, the people were still rational at this time, and did not directly rush into the Chu family's pharmacy.

The current scene is probably more lively than when Mrs. Chu returned to the city.

Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo, who were originally standing at the end of the crowd, found that many people had gathered behind them again.

"Brother Bai, let's take a walk to the back, so that when there is chaos here, we will be involved and unable to get out." Song Wuya saw the situation behind him and hurriedly reminded Bai Zhuo.

At this moment, Bai Zhuo turned his head to look behind him. When he saw that there were many people coming from behind, he was startled and nodded repeatedly.

The two left the crowd, still standing at the end of the crowd.But the further back it was, the less clearly they could see what was going on inside.

The common people in front were still yelling, and the people from the Chu family pharmacy stood at the door and said yes or no, it was extremely embarrassing.

At this moment, the crowd suddenly rioted again.

"Miss Chu is here!"

"It's the eldest lady of the Chu family!"

"Give way, let's make way, let Miss Chu family give us an explanation."

Just as I was thinking about it, the rightful master of the Chu family finally came.This time, it was not the eldest son of Chu who wanted to take down Bai Zhuo before, but the young lady of the Chu family who came forward this time.

Song Wuya understood this in his heart.In such a scene, as long as Mr. Chu appears, the situation will become even more uncontrollable.But what he was a little curious about was that the second son of Chu was the main controller of the Chu family, yet he didn't choose to come forward in such a matter.

"Folks! Please be quiet and listen to what my little girl has to say."

After all, she is the eldest lady of the Chu family, and the common people still give her face.As soon as she opened her mouth, the noisy crowd fell silent again.

Miss Chu must be different from the pharmacy shopkeeper.After all, she was in the capital and was used to seeing the big world, but she didn't know if she could keep these common people safe.
