Chapter 307 The Hypocritical Heroine Who Was Deprived of Luck (21)

Lingju's words made the other party nervous all of a sudden, and he shuddered, talking with a smile.

"You're worrying too much about it. We don't have that kind of thought. The rice was ordered by other houses. The deposit has just been paid. I forgot to tell the waiter at the moment."

The shopkeeper stepped forward and showed the written document to Ling Chu, afraid that the other party would not believe it, so he continued to talk.

"This belongs to the Li family, this belongs to the Wu family, and this belongs to the Mu family. Several major families have made a lot of reservations. There are more and more refugees. Many stores that sell food have closed. I am afraid that there will not be enough people for us. "

The shopkeeper dared to sell because he had stored a lot, and he collected these at a low price.

"Then what do you mean, the rice shop doesn't sell these grains to us, right?"

"That's what it means. It's already been ordered, and we can't tear up the bill."

"Go to the next one."

Lingju went out first, and the other customers in the store also went out together. Everyone's complexion was not very good. They also followed the advice of their family members and came out to buy some food.

"closed?"

"This one is also closed."

"What kind of door is closed in broad daylight? Someone will deliberately disrupt the market so that we can't buy it."

The speaker has no intention of the listener.

Lingzhu made a quick decision and went to look for Peony outside the city.

Isn't there still one year left for the famine in the plot?How did it appear so soon.

There is a lot of food in the capital, and the price has always been stable. Today is so abnormal, there must be someone behind the scenes to control everything.

"Master Li is here."

She stood aside.

A person came out of the sedan chair, and this person was at the entrance of the rice store, looking around.

"Nearby shops are closed anyway."

"Master, I didn't lie to you. I went to buy it yesterday, but I didn't sell many of them. I said someone had already sold them. This morning, many shops were closed and there was no one there."

"Is there any gossip?"

"I heard that there are many refugees coming here, the number is beyond imagination, more than the people in our city, and many enemies are also mixed in, wanting to take the opportunity to take our capital as their own."

The servant leaned forward and muttered in a low voice, and his sensitive ears listened to him.

"This is all heard, and the slaves don't know if it's true or not. However, many people left the capital with their wives, children, and a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, and took refuge in other places."

"Our capital is difficult to defend and easy to attack. The roads extend in all directions. It was developed thanks to those merchants. If someone comes to attack, the capital will be destroyed within a day."

"We are all the old, the weak, the sick, and the young ones left early."

"Pass down the order to rectify those veterans, maybe some enemies really mixed in and disturbed the hearts of the people."

Lingling mixed into the crowd and left the place.

This place is not a capital city, but a small city similar to a capital city. The people in the city come from all over the world, and very few live there for a long time. Peony also comes from other cities.

outside the city.

There were countless refugees fleeing, and many of them left their homes and were skinny. When they saw the food, their eyes glowed, and they went crazy to fight for it.

Some people fought violently for a little food, and they had no benevolence and morality at all, and they even started fighting against the elderly.

"my child……"

The child was pulled in it, trampled under his feet, screaming in pain, and his mother was crying beside him.

Lingzhu couldn't bear to look directly at him, and with a wave of his hand, he carried the young child out.

"Give."

"son……"

"Thank you benefactor...thank you benefactor..."

"It's such a mess outside, why has no one mentioned it?"

"Girl Chu, why are you here? Miss is serving porridge over there."
