Chapter 271: The Last Passerby

When Han Yang returned home, Bai Jing dragged him and asked, "What happened, what happened to those people?"

Han Yang sat down: "I was taken away by the troops, I don't know what I took them for, but what is certain is that they can't go back." ”

Bai Jing breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good, just don't come to harm our village again." ”

When Shen Dalong came back and talked to Bai Jing about his concerns, Bai Jing was worried for a while.

Because there is also an unmarried Shen Wei in the family, what if Shen Wei comes to have such rhetoric and deceive Shen Wei?

When it was okay, Bai Jing whispered to Shen Linxian, and Shen Linxian just laughed.

Bai Jing pushed her: "I'm dying, you have an idea." ”

Shen Linxian said in Bai Jing's ear: "Mom, what are you worried about, don't forget how Wei Wei died in her previous life, how could she still be deceived?"

Bai Jing then remembered Shen Wei's tragic past life, and felt distressed for a while, but also relieved.

After a few more days, the temperature dropped to more than minus forty degrees.

Some of the old people and children in the village couldn't stand it, and the village chief was in a hurry, but there was no coal, and there was no other way than to cut down trees.

The key is, if the tree is cut down this year, how will it be warm next year?

At this time, people from the army said that they had found a coal mine not far from Shangzhuang, and there were still a lot of coal reserves in it, and the troops got a lot of people, as well as those gangsters who came to Shangzhuang last time to make trouble, and they also went over to dig coal.

As soon as the news came, many people rejoiced.

In those years, most of the families in the village had grain in stock, so the big guys took out some of the grain at home and gathered together to exchange coal for the troops.

Shen Dalong and Han Yang discussed, and they also took some grain out to exchange for coal.

Although they have coal at home, others don't know, if the Shen family doesn't change, everyone will definitely be suspicious, in order not to be conspicuous, they have to change it a little.

Shen Dalong asked Bai Jing to take some sweet potatoes and beans, and asked Han Yang to put them in the car and push them to change coal.

When we got to the troops, the people in the village were waiting in line.

One by one, they were frozen and shrunk together, but no one wanted to leave.

The old and the young in the family are waiting for this coal to go back to save their lives.

After a while, the commander of the unit came out and announced how to change the coal.

In this situation, there is a real shortage of grain, and I don't know if I can grow grain in the field next year, so grain is very precious, coarse grain, that is, 200 catties of grain for one ton of coal, fine grain for one hundred catties for one ton, and meat for twenty catties for one ton.

As soon as they heard that meat could also be exchanged for food, a few families quietly asked people to go back and bring a few catties of meat.

Then it's over-weighing, changing coal.

When it was Han Yang's turn, more than an hour had passed, and he hurriedly pushed the cart over and unloaded the grain.

Later, Wang Zhi asked him with a smile: "You have a lot of family, just change it like this?"

Han Yang smiled: "My dad bought a lot of coal before, isn't it afraid that it won't burn enough, so he changed it." ”

"You're in good luck. Wang Zhi said enviously.

Han Yang smiled: "It's my dad who was prescient. ”

The grain has been weighed over there, and there are about 100 catties of grain in total, and because it is coarse grain, it can be exchanged for 1,000 catties of coal.

When a few officers and soldiers brought the coal, Han Yang began to load the truck, and after loading the truck, he pushed it and left.

Pushing the cart loaded with thousands of catties of coal, Han Yang walked quickly, and the villagers behind him were amazed, and praised Shen Dalong for his good fortune, and the son-in-law he was looking for was simply infinitely powerful.

Han Yang transported the coal back and piled it directly on the open space next to the stove, intending to burn the coal first.

After piling up the coal, Han Yang entered the house.

Because of the coal transport and coal piles, his body was already pitch black.

After entering the house, Han Yang took off his big cotton clothes, took off his hat, and changed his shoes, Shen Linxian made hot water and told him to go over and wash his hands and face.

After washing my hands and face, the water in the basin turned black.

Shen Linxian went to splash water, and Han Yang went back to the house to change into clean clothes and came out to chat with Shen Dalong.

Bai Jing took out a little melon seeds, peanuts and sugar cubes from the space and put them on the table, and asked Han Yang while eating, "Are there many people who exchange coal?"

"The people in our village have changed. Han Yang smiled and grabbed a handful of peanuts to eat.

While he was talking, Wang Yong and Wang Zhi came together.

The two shouted outside, and Shen Dalong promised to let the two in.

The two of them came over after changing their clothes, and when they entered the door, they stomped their feet and said: "It's still warm in your house, our family doesn't dare to burn hard, for fear that the weather will get cold, and now the house can be reconciled as long as it is not below zero." ”

Wang Zhi smiled: "Now that I have coal, I have a bottom in my heart, and I will burn a little warmer at home when I turn around." ”

Bai Jing got up and asked the two of them to sit down, and pushed the melon seeds and peanuts over.

Wang Zhi grabbed a handful of melon seeds: "Sister-in-law, sit too." ”

Shen Dalong asked Wang Yong: "How much coal did you change?"

Wang Yong shook his head: "I didn't dare to change more, who knows what the grain output will be like next year? In previous years, we farmed and there was no tax, and the grain we beat was our own, but next year we have to pay half of it to the top, and we don't know if the grain is enough to eat, so we dare to change more." ”

"yes. Wang Zhi also sighed: "This grain is life-saving, you have to keep it, but if you don't have this coal, you can't do it, if you don't burn the fire at home, people can't freeze to death, it's really a dilemma." ”

Speaking of this, Wang Zhi smiled a little proudly: "Fortunately, my family also raised pigs, I killed the pig before, the weather was cold, but I was able to keep it, and I stored a lot of meat at home. ”

"Who knows if you will be able to raise pigs and chickens next year?" Shen Dalong heard this, and he also moved some thoughts, wanting to raise some animals.

"I don't know. Wang Zhi smiled bitterly: "It would be best if you could raise it, if you can't raise more chickens next year, the chickens don't need to eat grain, just eat the grass and insects in the field." ”

Speaking of this, Wang Zhi lowered his voice and said softly: "Dalong, we came to you to discuss something. ”

"What's the matter?" Shen Dalong asked.

Wang Zhi's voice was a little quieter: "I heard that the south side is a little warmer than ours, but the disaster over there is greater, first the earthquake, then the flood, there are more things missing, and now they want to change warm clothes and food or something, they exchange oil, salt, coal, more than the army, we think about whether we should go over together, this trip down, I am afraid that the income is indispensable." ”

Shen Dalong was moved when he heard it: "Then let's find a few more people." ”

Wang Yong whispered: "Let's go around the city, maybe we can pick up something, if we pick up good things, we can also take them to exchange for supplies." ”
