The queen of the end times is reborn and goes crazy, her whole family is burned to death

Chapter 194 Arousing public outrage

"County Lady! Can you say it again? You said that all the goods we produced have been sold?" An elderly craftsman asked in a trembling voice, his eyes full of disbelief.

"This is impossible! With so many things, even if they were put on sale in the shop, they wouldn't be sold out so quickly!" Another vendor scratched his head, looking confused.

"What do you know? The county lady said it was sold, so it must have been sold! Is it necessary for the county lady to lie to us?" A woman next to him glared at the merchant, her tone full of unquestionable trust.

"So...what the county lady said is true?"

Everyone looked at each other, and then turned their gazes to Yan Wanwan, their eyes full of expectation and anxiety.

Yan Wanwan stood on the steps, looking at the people's eyes full of hope, and couldn't help but chuckle.

She no longer kept the secret and nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, everyone, all the goods have indeed been sold. Otherwise, where would I have the money to buy these expensive herbs?"

As soon as she finished speaking, deafening cheers broke out from the crowd, as if to overturn the entire sky of Nanping Prefecture.

The people were so excited that they danced and some even cried with joy and hugged each other to celebrate.

"The County Princess is truly formidable! I knew that with the County Princess here in Nanping Prefecture, it would never fall!"

"Great! Now we have a stable salary and can get on with our lives!"

"The county lady is truly our lucky star!"

Amidst the cheers, Yan Wanwan's lips curled slightly, a flicker of relief in her eyes. She knew the trust and support of these people was her greatest source of confidence. And she had more plans to implement and more surprises to bring to these simple folks.

"Everyone!"

She raised her hand to signal for silence, her voice clear and firm, "Nanping Mansion now has a stable customer base, so everyone can rest assured. We may receive even larger orders in the future. I hope everyone will work together with Nanping Mansion to make more money and have a prosperous year at the end of the year."

The people couldn't help but laugh and shouted in unison: "Have a prosperous new year!"

Looking at those pairs of determined eyes, Yan Wanwan was very satisfied. What she said was true. There would indeed be a tough battle to fight next.

Soon after Nanping Pharmacy opened for business, it welcomed its first wave of customers.

An elderly man with a shaky gait, after a diagnosis, learned that he was extremely frail and would need long-term medication to recuperate. He was hesitant and even considered giving up the treatment due to financial pressures. Just then, a doctor at a pharmacy made an unexpected move: he gave him ginseng for free, stating that all future ginseng in his medicine would be provided by the pharmacy.

For a moment, the pharmacy was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, leaving only the sound of gasps. Everyone was deeply shocked by the pharmacy's generosity.

The old man opened his mouth in disbelief. He pointed at himself with his old finger and said, "I... I'm just an old man!"

The doctor couldn't help but laugh. "Old man, no matter who you are, the county lady said she would use the best medicine to treat the people of Nanping Prefecture. You can take it without worry!"

The old man was stunned at first, his eyes full of disbelief. After he came to his senses, his eyes were red and he was so excited that he couldn't speak.

The other customers present were also stunned by Yan Wanwan's generosity. The doctor had just said that the old man needed ginseng for every meal, and he would need to drink it for six months. Even if the ginseng was young, it would still be a considerable expense! Yan Wanwan really gave as she said she would. No wonder all her earnings went on buying medicinal herbs. At this rate, I'm afraid even the money she earned wouldn't be enough to support them.

Then the doctor said to everyone: "The county lady said that our pharmacy treats everyone equally. As long as you are a citizen of Nanping Prefecture, you can enjoy this benefit."

As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd erupted in excitement again. People whispered to each other, their eyes filled with emotion and surprise.

Someone excitedly shouted, "The county lady is so kind and righteous! The people of Nanping Prefecture are truly blessed!"

Others, with tears welling in their eyes, muttered to themselves, "To be able to meet a county lady like this in this life is a blessing we have earned through several lifetimes!"

A young mother held her child, tears in her eyes. "County Lady, we have no way of repaying your kindness. If you need us in the future, please let us know!"

The people around echoed, and those sincere words spread throughout the streets and alleys of Nanping Prefecture.

Thanks to Yan Wanwan's efforts, Nanping Prefecture ushered in new changes. These changes spread rapidly like ripples, causing a huge sensation in the outside world.

However, no one expected that the person who would be directly affected by this series of changes would be the prefect of Nanping Prefecture.

When he heard that Yan Wanwan had successfully solved all the problems, the prefect's tense nerves finally relaxed and he breathed a sigh of relief.

To be fair, his time as prefect of Nanping Prefecture had been quite smooth and enjoyable. He knew that if Nanping Prefecture fell into dire straits, he would inevitably be implicated and suffer a tragic end. It seemed that he and Yan Wanwan were already tied to the same rope, rising and falling together.

Now that the matter has been resolved, he can relax and live his happy life.

"My lord, something is wrong!"

When the yamen runners rushed in, the prefect spat out a mouthful of tea and angrily cursed, "You are the one who is wrong. Speak human language."

The yamen runner, sweating profusely, hurried into the hall, his voice filled with anxiety and helplessness: "Sir, many people from other places have come outside, clamoring to see you! They say that if you don't give us an explanation, they won't leave."

There were too many people coming, and most of the people in their yamen came out to help, but they ended up being harassed by this group of people. If they hadn't been really helpless, they would have sent them away long ago.

The prefect was confused. It was understandable if the locals came to him, but why did people from other places also come to him?

"I'll go out and take a look."

After saying that, the prefect strode out. As soon as he reached the door, he saw a group of people gathered outside, chattering and arguing with the yamen runners.

"what happened?"

"Sir, these unruly people actually asked you why they, outsiders, cannot enjoy the treatment at Nanping Pharmacy?"

Immediately, those people responded loudly, "Yes! Why? We have also made contributions to Nanping Prefecture, and we demand to enjoy the same treatment."

The prefect was annoyed by the noise and waved them to be quiet. "This is the welfare of Nanping Prefecture. If you also want to enjoy it, then you should become a citizen of Nanping Prefecture first and then talk about other things."

"This is not fair!"

"Yes, if you don't change, we will close the store."

"That's right, we're closing the shop. After we leave, let's see who else will open a shop in your Nanping Prefecture."

They talked back and forth, and the prefect's face turned pale, but he did not dare to offend them rashly.

"Why is it so lively!?"

A cold voice came from behind the crowd.
