"Pillar, how far is it?"

"Come on, just go over the hill in front of you. ”

Hearing the pillar say this, Han Pi also breathed a sigh of relief, not that he was tired, but mainly because the road was too difficult to walk, and he was carrying such a big piece of things, hanging branches back and forth, which was more troublesome.

After resting for about ten minutes, the two of them hurried again, turned over a small hill, and the scene in front of them stunned Hanpi, this is a small village, the village is not big, about forty or fifty households, but it looks so harmonious, the most important thing is that the building of this village is not a building of this era at all, it seems to have a history of at least hundreds of years.

"How's that, isn't it shocking?" asked Hanpi with a smile next to him.

"Yes, it's impressive. Foolish nodded.

"Let's go, let's go. ”

"Good. ”

Outsiders came to the village, it seems to be a very rare thing, the children here are all around Hanpi, Hanpi didn't expect it to be this picture, otherwise he would have prepared some candy or something, and now he is a little embarrassed to be empty-handed.

The pillar went directly to his father-in-law's house with Hanpi, which is also an ancient building, with three main rooms and two partial rooms on each side, but it is much better than the Douge Village, but unfortunately the people here don't go out, and the people outside don't come in.

"Here comes the pillar. ”

An old woman saw the pillar and hurriedly came over to say hello.

The mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the sooner she likes it, that's the reason.

"Mother, I brought a friend over, where's my father?"

There are no comrades here, because it is isolated from the world, so it is a friend who comes here.

"Your father is in the house, I'll call you. ”

Of course, the mother-in-law of the pillar saw the cloth on Hanpi's back, and the ecstasy was definitely not pretended, she was really happy, and she also wanted a piece, but she didn't know how to speak, and there were people who asked for things when they first met.

"Here comes the pillar?"

Soon, an old man with a long beard came out.

"Yes, Dad, you're fine. ”

"It's good, I can't die for the time being. ”

"What are you talking about, old man? The old woman patted the old man beside her.

"You're here this time ......"

"Dad, this is a friend from our village, he can get cloth. ”

"Oh!" said the old man, his eyes lit up, "are you going to sell it to us? ”

"Dad, no, it just so happens that he also needs something, and he is going to change it for you. ”

After putting the cloth down, Hanpi said to the old man: "Old man, I am not here to sell cloth, I heard that you are not short of food and drink, I want to change some food for you." ”

"It's very strange to change food. ”

I guess the old man didn't expect that there would be a shortage of food outside, yes, the girl would take away some meat or something every time she came over, but she never said that there was a shortage of food.

In fact, the old man didn't know that the girl who married out, no matter how hard and tired she was outside, it was impossible to go back to her parents' house and say, if that was the case, what would become of the girl.

"That's right, I'm here to get food, it's better to have meat, even if there is no meat, food is fine. ”

"Hahaha, if that's the case, then there's no problem, whether you want meat or food, we have it all here. ”

"Pillar, it's up to you to talk about this. "Hanpi asked the pillar to go and tell his father-in-law.

Hanpi himself can explain it clearly, but it's more troublesome, and with the pillar here, this trouble can be saved.

"Okay, I'll go and say. ”

Then the pillar passed, and I don't know what his father-in-law said, and then his father-in-law went out, and in less than twenty minutes, several old men came to the courtyard, and they were all older than the pillar father-in-law.

"Young man, do you mean to get cloth for us in exchange for food and meat?"

"That's right. Foolish nodded.

"Okay, I just don't know how you're going to change it. ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, I won't be verbose, let's get straight to the point, in this way, a foot of cloth and a pound of meat, I don't care what kind of meat it is, as long as it's meat, what do you think?"

The cloth that Hanpi bought, a foot is about five cents, if it is calculated in this way, Hanpi will suffer a little loss, but this loss Hanpi can still afford to eat, and he doesn't want to care about that.

Hearing Hanpi say that a foot of cloth and a pound of meat, several old men's eyes lit up, because in their village, cloth is much more expensive than meat, and in addition, Hanpi is also sent to home, so there is such a good thing.

"Okay, how much cloth do you have here, we want them all. ”

"To my old man, I have a total of ten pieces of cloth here, and one horse is forty meters. ”

The next thing is relatively simple, and there is no need to be naïve to divide it, it is like a collective, everything is grouped together, and then there are a few old men in charge to deal with it.

Hanpi and Zhuzi drank water in the old man's house in Zhuzi, and it was lively outside, it was to kill pigs and sheep, and they began to get busy, Hanpi asked for a thousand catties of meat, and the rest wanted grain, and the grain was calculated according to one catty of meat and ten catties of grain.

Four hundred meters of cloth is 1,200 feet, that is, 1,200 catties of meat, Hanpi asked for 1,000 catties of meat, and the remaining 200 catties were exchanged for 2,000 catties of grain, of course, the grain he wanted was not wheat or corn, but flour.

There are a lot of stone mills in the village, and many women begin to grind noodles for Hanpi, two thousand catties is not a small amount, of course, it is really nothing for a village.

Because Hanpi is in a hurry, the flour may not be able to be ground so much, and many people bring the flour at home, anyway, they can grind it themselves at any time, which is nothing.

After staying at the old man's house for a while, Hanpi came out with the pillar, he was going to look around here, the village was built in a patchwork, behind the village is a large plain, look at this plain, Hanpi knows, this is estimated to be the village has been reclaimed for generations, otherwise how can there be a plain in the mountains.

The most surprising thing is that there are some fruit trees on the mountains around here, there are persimmon trees, chestnuts, apples, and the most are jujube trees, and some wild jujube trees.

Of course, no one can eat fruit all year round, and many fruits cannot be eaten as food, and it is estimated that because of this, so much land has been reclaimed here for growing food, and as for the fruit on the mountain, it can be used to feed livestock.

Feeding pigs with apples is really a luxury, but there is no way, you can't eat them all, you can't transport them, you can't let them rot on the tree.
