'Liu Hong…'
Chen Yi said thoughtfully, "It seems grain prices in Shu State are about to rise."
"It won't have much of an impact," Li Huai'gu said with a smile. "If prices rise too much, the two Governors will likely step in and regulate them."
Chen Yi glanced at him but didn't say anything more.
'Given the current situation, even if the Governor's Office does intervene, it'll only be after the Xiao Family's silver coins have been completely drained.'
After some more small talk, Chen Yi bid farewell to Li Huai'gu and found Liu Si'er outside the wonton shop.
It was nearly noon, and many students from the academy frequented the wonton shop. A long line had even formed at the entrance.
Many of the students who saw Chen Yi bowed. "Sir, you're eating here as well?"
"Why don't you join us?"
Chen Yi returned their greetings one by one, shaking his head with a smile. "I have something to attend to, so I'll be on my way."
