These few days.
There were many more people from the same hometown coming and going to the Li Manor.
The village chief Ma Bonong led more than a hundred good citizens to surround the Li Mansion.
As the demonic rain continued.
Every household was already short of food.
Back then, the commoners, led by Ma Li Zheng, were cold to Li Yi.
They whispered in private, saying that Li Yi hoarding grain was a retarded act.
He was used to bullying.
Sometimes, he would criticize and make fun of Li Yi, but it was no longer limited to his private life.
He had ridiculed and ridiculed her many times in public.
Now, they had no food to eat.
Therefore, he had no choice but to come and beg.
After all, Li Yi was now a major grain merchant, and his family had 200,000 dans of grain.
If Li Yi was willing to give alms to the commoners in the suburbs of Wannian City.
That would be enough for this group of people to safely survive this natural disaster.
Old Ma was all smiles.
The group of commoners behind him did the same.
They were holding a bunch of money symbolically in their hands.
All in all, it was only ten strings.
Ten strings!
According to the current market price of 20 copper coins per bushel of rice.
It was only enough to buy 500 dans of food.
Moreover, there was a price but no supply!
"Li child, take these ten strings of money. Today, we'll open the granary for your family's grain. The villagers are all waiting to eat, hehe.”
Ma Lao Li was speaking with a hint of dignity and authority.
After all, in this era, the people did not see the officials.
The village chief was the highest authority in the village.
To a certain extent, it was enough to control the life and death of the villagers.
Li Yi narrowed his eyes and said,""You want to buy my grain?"
"We're from the same village, how can you say we're buying?" Ma Laoli corrected him. Now that the capital region is filled with starving people, as long as you do this kind deed, I will report this merit to the county government. At that time, your reputation will rise and you might even be able to get an official position in the county government.”
Li Yi nodded and continued to ask him," I'm asking you. Are you and you going to buy my food?"”
Ma Lao Li was a little angry. Do you know?"
Li Yi thought for a moment and said to Old Ma,""The price of grain near the capital region has risen to 20 copper coins per bucket of rice. According to your money, you can only buy 500 stones at most.”
Old Ma was stunned." And then?”
Li Yi looked around at everyone." On account of us being from the same hometown, I'll give you one last chance. I'll ask you one last time. Are you going to buy my food?”
F * ck!
This retard, is his brain acting up again?
"Li Yi!" Ma Laoli said with a straight face. Don't mess around. Quickly open the granary and release the grain. The life and death of the people are all in your hands.”
Li Yi let out a long 'oh'.
"So you know. You know that your life and death are in my hands.”
He suddenly changed the topic, and his entire body emitted a cold aura."So, why should I care about your life and death? Can you tell me a reason?"
At this moment.
Old Ma was panicking.
How did this kid change?
In the past, when this old man's domineering aura trembled, this kid would be scared into silence.
What was going on?
At this moment, Old Ma and Li Zheng no longer had any dignity in their eyes.
He swallowed nervously.""Well, Li Yi…we're from the same hometown.”
Li Yi thought for a moment and said lightly,"You also know that we are from the same hometown?" Why didn't you say that you were from the same hometown when you scolded me in the past? Why didn't you say that you were from the same hometown when you scolded me in the past? Why didn't you say that you were from the same hometown when you bullied me in the past?”
There was no need to be angry.
It was completely unnecessary.
Controlling the life and death of this group of people was very simple.
Li Yi had grasped the weakness of this group of people. Squeezing them to death was like squashing ants.
The truth of the world was that simple.
"You know what?" he sneered. Now, ten strings can buy five hundred stone rice, but there is no market for it. Even if you take the money, you won't be able to buy food in the market.”
"But I can sell it to you!"
"The reason is simple. You guys fight, and I'll sell it to whoever can stand in the end.”
Old Ma's entire body shivered.
Inside the sleeves, his fists were firmly embedded.
His entire body was trembling.
How vicious was this little bastard's mind!
He actually used such a vicious method!
This wasn't a so-called conspiracy at all. This was an open conspiracy!
This little bastard broke everything apart, crumbled it, and analyzed it bit by bit for you to hear.
When you know that there is no market for food. When you know that you can't buy food.
He gave you hope again.
You fight, and the last one standing will sell food!
In the face of life and death, dignity was worthless.
Ma Laoli felt that the situation was already out of his control.
The commoners on the side began to stir.
They were hungry.
There was really no food left.
His wife and children were still waiting for the rice to boil.
"Don't listen to him!" shouted Ma Laoli. Calm down…F * ck! Who the f * ck hit this old man's head!"
Ma Lao Li was hit by a punch and fell unconscious.
In front of the Li Residence.
A brutal battle of humanity began.
Li Yi closed the door and smiled calmly.""After you're done, knock on my door. Oh right, get the money ready.”
After saying that, Li Yi closed the gates of the Li Residence.
……
Not far away.
Empress Zhangsun witnessed all of this.
He stood there in a daze.
His eyes were a little dazed.
She didn't think that Li Yi was that ruthless.
She was just thinking about how much bullying this child had suffered in the past.
That was why he wrapped himself up like a hedgehog.
Empress Zhangsun's heart ached.
She had met Li Yi several times and really wanted to tell him that she was his mother. Let's go to the palace and not suffer here.
But she didn't dare!
She didn't have as many concerns as Li Shimin.
They would consider how Li Chengqian would deal with himself at that time.
He would consider how the officials would treat this matter.
As a mother, Empress Zhangsun had only considered one point.
There was only one thing.
Would this child accept her?
Thirteen years!
He had been bullied for thirteen years right under his nose!
She tried asking Li Yi if he would miss his parents.
Li Yi's answer was,"Strangers, why would I miss them?"
Empress Zhangsun cried, her tears falling like rain.
Child, mother will treat you well. Mother will find the most suitable opportunity to reunite with you!
Mother will let the world know that my son is the Great Tang…
The eldest son!
Whoever dares to bully my son, I'll kill them!
I don't want to be a virtuous empress.
I don't need the approval of the officials.
I will kill whoever bullies my son!
Empress Zhangsun looked at this group of commoners, and her eyes gradually became vicious.
She calmly said to the female guard beside her: " Get the internal guards to do it more discreetly. This Ma Li Zheng, BenGong doesn't want to see him continue living."”
"Oh, and these villagers. It's the same."
After saying that, Empress Zhangsun put on a kind smile. Holding an oil-paper umbrella, she pulled the ox cart toward the front door of the Li Residence.
