Chapter 549: Fearing that the world will not be in chaos
In this case, it only costs a few pennies a day, which is very cost-effective.
Therefore, when Wufu Workshop started selling tofu dregs at low prices, it immediately attracted many people from poor families who often did not have enough to eat to buy it. Because of the large number of people, there were often long queues.
The people are also very satisfied with this.
On the other hand, some people spat on the ground when they saw many people queuing up to buy crumbs. Taking out the tofu and giving it to everyone, and selling out the tofu, how can it be considered a good deed?”
"That's right, you can use some tofu to win people's hearts here, and you don't feel guilty about being at a loss. Wufu Workshop and the Yamen have made their calculations almost smoke. You guys who don't understand anything are still suffering at a loss. It’s so stupid to talk about people being nice here!”
The crowd listened to a few people cursing there. After first looking at them in surprise, they narrowed their eyes and snorted disdainfully.
Seeing that the crowd not only failed to take their words to heart, but even looked down upon them, the round-faced man who spoke first suddenly became dissatisfied, "What, what I said is wrong?"
"I don't know if what you said is right or not." An elderly man in the team looked at the round-faced man, "But I want to ask you, are you willing to use the food and other things you have at home? Give me some?”
"The food in my house belongs to me, why should I give it to you, an old man?" The round-faced man said with disgust on his face, "You only think about good things every day, why don't you think about money falling from the sky?"
< br>
"I didn't expect money to fall from the sky, I just thought that what you said was contradictory and it really didn't make sense." The old man said, "Since you don't want to give me your family's food, why should you let Wufu Workshop send tofu to us? Your food is food, but the tofu from Wufu Workshop is not tofu?”
"How can that be the same?" The round-faced man snorted, "Isn't this Five Blessings Workshop known to do good things for the people? Since it is doing good things, it must look like it is doing good things!"
"Wufu Workshop never said it was doing good deeds. It was us who said it was doing good deeds and just thinking about the people. How come it changed the taste in your mouth?"
The old man continued, "To take a step back, even if Wufu Workshop and the Yamen consider the people, they should do everything within their capabilities. What's wrong with that?"
"If nothing else, let me ask you, can you sell us dregs of tofu for two cents?"
"Two pennies?" The round-faced man's cheeks bulged with anger, "Why don't you go and grab it!"
The price of beans this year is more expensive than last year. A pound of beans costs seven or eight cents. Even if they are dregs of beans, they cost five or six cents a pound in the market now.
Two pennies, what are you thinking about?
As soon as he said this, the crowd burst into laughter.
Immediately afterwards, someone cursed fiercely, "Get out of here, don't blame me for twisting your head off if you don't act like a fool here again."
"I don't do anything all day long. I only know how to make trouble here. If you have time, go pick up the shit in your neighborhood!"
"I have discovered that there are always people who are afraid of chaos in the world."
"Everyone, please keep your eyes open. Don't be led by people with ulterior motives like this. It will hurt the hearts of those who really want to do things. That's really the dog biting Lu Dongbin."
"That's right..." A bunch of people were talking and scolding the round-faced man. Their faces turned the color of pig's liver. They no longer had the shame to stay where they were, so they quickly left in dejection.
But I was still angry.
After turning a corner, he was still indignant, "We also thought for them, wouldn't we get more benefits by making a fuss and shouting, but they refused and called us gangsters." The heart is really like a dog biting Lu Dongbin!”
"That's right, we are doing it for their own good!" The long-faced man next to him agreed, "Fifth brother, don't be angry, these people are untouchables, they don't know what is good and what is good, they deserve to suffer and be poor!"
"Come on." The round-faced man sighed, "It's hard to persuade the damn devils, just let them go. We are doing our best, God is watching, and we have a clear conscience!"
As soon as the words fell, a faint voice suddenly sounded next to him, "That's right, what you want is a clear conscience."
Seeing someone answering, the round-faced man turned around hurriedly and saw a middle-aged man wearing a long gown and looking elegant, like a scholar.
But on this person's cheek, there was a scar that started from the base of the mountain and went all the way to the base of the ear, running through the entire right side of his face. Even though the color was pale and white, it still looked very scary.
But fortunately, this person was smiling and showing some kindness, which made people feel a little more comfortable.
"Your Majesty is right." The round-faced man nodded and raised his hand to the man, "It's rare that there are sober people like your Majesty in this world, unlike those confused people who don't understand anything."
"The world is like this, and there is nothing we can do about it." The scarred man sighed and cupped his hands, "But as you said, fortunately there are sober people like us in this world, otherwise, I really don't know what kind of situation we would be in. ”
"This Wufu Workshop, which has the name Wufu, actually has all its mechanisms and has gained a good reputation. It can only be said that the people behind it are very sophisticated, which is sad."
"Yes." The round-faced man nodded, "Previously, the prefect was considered a good official who worked for the people, but now he smells like copper. I really don't know how to comment."
"It's probably not the fault of the prefect, it's just those businessmen who saw the loophole and deceived the prefect," said the scarred man.
merchant?
The round-faced man thought for a while, "You mean, Mrs. Xia, who organized the Wufu Workshop?"
"Who else besides her?" The scarred man's face was full of contempt, "I'm not going to hide it from you, this Jiang family is originally from Jinqiu County, and she is a rich and cheap woman. For the sake of money, she actually instigated Let other people's father-daughter relationships be cut off from their daughters, and let other people's daughters be indifferent to their parents and not do any filial piety! ”
"Is this happening?" The round-faced man was shocked and full of anger. "Children should obey their parents in everything. Even if their parents ask them to die, it is natural. Only in this way can they fulfill their due filial piety. Is there no one to take care of this unscrupulous thing? ”
"Xia is used to flattering and flattering the local magistrate, who dares to say anything wrong with her? Now that Xia is getting close to the magistrate, others naturally dare not say anything."

The scarred man sighed, "It's a pity that in this bright world, no matter how bright the sun is, it can't shine through the evil in this man's heart..."
