Therefore, Li Maosheng's family was very surprised when they saw this bag of flour, no one expected Mei Yixuan to be so generous, how much does it cost?! They know that white flour is not cheap, how can this hundred catties of flour cost three taels of silver, this is too expensive!

Li Maosheng knew the severity, and hurriedly stopped: "Zhao Gongzi, how can this be made, this is too ······"

Lehi's hand holding the flour bag couldn't help but tighten, and he lowered his head and didn't say a word, leaving his father to dispose of it.

In fact, his heart was happy, and he privately hoped that his father would leave wheat flour.

This year's harvest in the sea is not good, except for the people who go to the sea to eat two meals, the family only eats one meal a day, and several children are all hungry and thin, he feels sorry for the children, and naturally hopes that the family will have more food.

Mei Yixuan said with a smile: "Uncle Li, I know that your life is very tight, it is not easy, don't be pressured, this is just a little bit of the younger generation's mind." There is nothing else, the younger generation has food in their hands, and if the family needs it, the younger generation will take out some appropriately to help the villagers tide over the difficulties. ”

Li Maosheng hesitated, couldn't help but glance at the old mother on the bed, and didn't dare to make his own decisions.

In fact, he just pretended to excuse himself just now, and in his selfish heart, like his son, he also wanted to keep this bag of wheat flour. The situation at home could not be clearer than his, and the food was only enough for the whole family for a month. There is little harvest in the sea, and because of the restrictions of the boats, they dare not go to the open sea, for fear that they will not return in the storm, so they all cast nets to fish in the coastal sea.

But even if the harvest is good, there must be buyers. Sometimes the buyers in the town do not come for several days, and they can only marinate the fish and shrimp they catch to make dried fish or shrimp paste, but in this way, there are very few people who buy them, and the price is not comparable to that of fresh fish.

They also thought about selling the fish and shrimp to Ping'an Town, but the village is still fifty miles away from Ping'an Town, they don't have any means of transportation, and now it is the hottest period, and when they arrive in Ping'an Town, the fish and shrimp are not fresh for a long time, and they can't sell them at a high price, so they can only catch fresh and salt, dry them into dried fish, or make shrimp paste.

However, the price of salt is not cheap, and everyone is reluctant to waste salt, and sometimes they can only watch the fish and shrimp rot.

Therefore, they are now in a dilemma, they don't know whether to continue to persevere, and many people have left like the previous ones if they didn't have money in their hands and were afraid that they would not be able to survive if they went outside.

Why did Li Maosheng want to stay? It's just that they are a big family, old and young, and it is so easy to survive outside? They can only stay hard-headed, hoping that the restaurants and restaurants in the town will prosper, so that their fish and shrimp can be marketed.

It's just that the current difficulties are not good, not only his family, but the entire village is almost broken, and he is reluctant to use lamp oil at night. His worried hair was almost completely white, and it was his incompetence that made his family and the villagers so poor.

However, the arrival of Zhao Erli solved the village's predicament in a short time, first rented a house of five families and gave a generous rent, hired someone to clean the courtyard a few days ago, and today bought the harvest in the sea. Everyone has some money in their hands, and they are discussing going to the town to buy food, after all, they can't really starve to death, right?

However, this can only be temporary, and he doesn't dare to think about what will happen in the future. Therefore, the bag of grain sent by Mei Yixuan became a lifesaver, which is why he did not insist on refusing.

For a while, Li Maosheng's thoughts were churning, and he didn't know how to decide, so he could only look at his mother for help, hoping that his mother would not complain about him.

Old Mrs. Li glanced at the yellow-skinned great-grandsons in the room, sighed secretly, and said, "Thank you Zhao Gongzi Gaoyi, the old body licked his face and accepted it." ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Mei Yixuan with a grateful and shy smile.

Mei Yixuan didn't expect that this would be the case for the Xu family in the hall, so the other families can imagine that it will only be more difficult.

Only then did she think that in modern times, with the policy of reform and opening up, the coastal life was better, and the seafood became a treasure. Before liberation, the days by the sea were far worse than those on land, and it is said that the poor whole family covered a quilt, and they couldn't afford to wear cotton clothes.

In this way, will it be easier for them to plan? If they have enough commission, they will accept it, right? After all, they have no money in their hands, and they still have the money to satisfy their needs.

So, Mei Yixuan smiled slightly: "Grandma Li, this is what the younger generation should do." I don't know if you know the situation of the younger generation, the younger generation wants to take root here, and naturally hopes that the village will live a good life. Other juniors don't dare to say that it is still possible to let everyone eat well. ”

Li Maosheng is worthy of being Li Xu for many years, and he suddenly heard the meaning of Mei Yixuan's words, and his mood quickly stabilized, giving Zhang a look.

Zhang understood and took her son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren out of the house, and asked them to go back to their respective houses, and she did not come back herself, but returned to her own house in the main house, the west house.

Seeing that only the old mother was left in the house, Li Maosheng asked: "What does Zhao Gongzi have to let the old man do, although he said, as long as it is within the scope of the law, he will definitely meet Zhao Gongzi's requirements." ”

Although he hopes that the people in the village will not go hungry and can eat well, if Mei Yixuan's request is out of line and involves illegal things, even if Mei Yixuan gives him more money, he will not agree.

Mei Yixuan nodded secretly, she had a bottom on Li Maosheng's character, if Li Maosheng didn't care about it for money, she really had to weigh it, whether she wanted to cooperate with him. So, he said seriously: "Uncle Li rest assured, the younger generation will abide by the law and will never do anything that violates the law." ”

“······ Hehe," Li Maosheng smiled a little awkwardly and asked, "Then, what does Zhao Gongzi have to help, just say it." ”

Mei Yixuan glanced at Zhao Erli, and Zhao Erli told him the location of the nameless island about thirty nautical miles away in the southeast, and asked them if they could send them to the island with a small sampan.

After hearing this, Li Maosheng looked at them in surprise and said, "However, there are cliffs a few feet high, and you can't go up at all!"

Zhao Erli looked at Mei Yixuan and nodded secretly, signaling that Li Maosheng was right. However, since they were able to land on the island that year, there must have been other paths, so they then asked, "Then have you ever been to the bottom of the cliff, is there a reef in it, and can the little sampan carry us there?"

They were able to go, but so many people had to be carried by boat to the vicinity of the island before they could get people to the island.
