Chapter 133: 133. Buy, buy, buy!

```

Arriving by carriage at Li Pei's residence, she personally greeted me at the front door, her smile somewhat strained.

Leading Lu Yao to the study, Li Pei sat down gracefully with her legs together and slanted to one side, exuding an innate aristocratic elegance and the demeanor of the Royal Family.

"Young Master Lu, please enjoy the tea."

About to issue polite pleasantries and steer the conversation, Lu Yao got straight to the point, "Commandery Princess, if there's something you need, just say it. I'll certainly not refuse to help if I can!"

Facing Lu Yao's straightforward words, Li Pei coughed and then spoke up confidently,

"Young Master Lu, I want to ask you to donate another million catties of grain, just like last time!"

After saying this, she clasped her hands together and deeply bowed. Grain was currently a strategic material; while other families were desperately hoarding it, she was asking someone else to donate it. This was an extremely rude and enormous request.
