Buy grain

Because of the heavy snowfall, the town of Montenegro is very deserted, and many shops on both sides of the street are still closed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

But fortunately, the Zhang brothers were not the ones who came to the market, the two of them had a very clear purpose, and after entering the city, they drove directly to the door of a rice noodle shop in the town and stopped.

Zhang Dafei asked Erfei to go down first, and then parked the ox cart himself.

The door of the rice noodle shop was open, and there was only one young man inside, Zhang Dafei still recognized him, because his family's grain was sold here before, "Little brother, why are you alone, what about the boss of the shop?" As soon as Zhang Dafei entered the shop, he greeted the young man inside with a smile.

"Hey, it's Brother Zhang, the boss went to the county seat to deliver grain, so he left the villain to take care of the house, Brother Zhang, what's the matter with coming over today?" The young man sat behind the counter, heard someone greet him, turned his head to look, and saw Zhang Dafei who came to sell grain before, no wonder the young man had an impression of him, because his family sold too much grain before.

Zhang Dafei smiled and said, "Hehe, there is not enough food at home, buy some more food at this time"

"Oh, that's the case, Brother Zhang, then you have to buy more, it's not easy to have a good time this year" The little guy saw that there was no one next to him, and hurriedly ran out, then stood on tiptoe, leaned into Zhang Dafei's ear and whispered to Zhang Dafei.

"Hmm, what does this mean?" Zhang Dafei listened, turned around and glanced at the confused Erfei, and then looked at the young man on the side blankly.

The young man looked at their confused looks, and patiently explained to the two, "I heard that other places have not been peaceful recently, because of the heavy snow, the food at home is not enough."

After the young man finished speaking, he turned his head and thought that what he said was not serious, and then added, "Brother Zhang, I won't hide it from you, the shopkeeper went to the county seat to deliver grain this time, because the price of grain in the county has risen again, and it is much better than at the beginning" The young man sighed, and the two Zhang Dafei brothers said with serious faces.

Er Fei glanced at the little guy on the side, smiled and then muttered to the eldest brother on the side, "Big brother, do you want us to go and see elsewhere" Er Fei thought to himself, I don't know that there is such a rice noodle shop in Black Mountain Town, what if this little guy deceives them? Er Fei was a little uneasy.

Zhang Dafei shook his head with a serious face, "No" Zhang Dafei didn't agree with her mother to sell all the grain when she sold the grain before, but unfortunately his mother didn't listen to it and sold it directly, the price increase of grain before the year made Zhang Dafei curious, and now when he heard the words of the guy in the store, he thought about it and understood the things of the previous year.

Er Fei wanted to open his mouth to say more, but was directly stopped by Zhang Dafei reaching out, Er Fei opened the corners of his mouth, and finally shut up.

Because Zhang Dafei is more than ten years older than Erfei, and there is a brother who died early in the middle, so for Erfei, Zhang Dafei is more like a father, although Erfei can ignore Zhang Li's family, but he doesn't dare to fight Zhang Dafei, no way, who let him be beaten by his eldest brother when he was a child.

Zhang Dafei didn't know that his younger brother was bowing his head to review him, he wanted to understand the matter of the food before, so he said to the young man on the side, "It's troublesome."

The young man is a good man, hearing Zhang Dafei's words, he hurriedly smiled and led Zhang Dafei to the side of the open rice noodle bag, "Brother Zhang, this is the newly harvested rice this year, you see, all of them are half full of color and luster, and the grains are round" The young man dutifully introduced the rice on the side, Zhang Dafei reached out and touched it, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, that's it, let's load it directly" Zhang Dafei finished speaking with a look of anger, and then beckoned Er Fei on the side, ready to move grain from the warehouse and load it.

"Brother Zhang, do you still use other food?" The young man opened a few more bags, but the rice in them was not as good as before, the grains were shriveled, and it was even tighter to the touch, if you eat it in your stomach. I'm afraid I'm going to have a stomach upset.

After Zhang Dafei saw it, he lowered his head and thought about it, nodded and said, "Take some" Their family can't buy all good grain, because the price of good rice is too high, and if they buy it all, they can't afford it.

The two accompanied the men to the warehouse, and the grain they bought was not all expensive, but some were cheap, and they would eat it when they returned home.

Because of the rise in food prices, the two of them didn't come back with as much food as before, but fortunately, they can get through it.

The two went in the morning, and came back with half a cart of grain in the afternoon, Wang Cuifeng was worried that the grain would be passed by Zhang Li's again, so he directly locked the grain in the warehouse, and when the time came, he would eat as much as he wanted, and the food saved would not be enough.

When Yang Weimin heard it, he felt that this matter was not small, so he directly told Yang Li's about it, Yang Li's mood was good after listening to it, after all, their family's food was enough to eat. Facing the direction of Zhang's yard, the slave mouthed, "Hmph, it's that idiot who sells food, now it's okay, it's more money."

"Mother, don't we have to buy some at home?" Yang Weimin didn't know how much food was left at home, because of Gu's words, he had thought about it today, and he was afraid that it would be a while at night when he lived.

Yang Li looked back at Yang Weimin, waved his hand and said, "No, the grain at home is enough to eat until the early rice harvest" because Yang Li thought a lot, so last year Yang Li basically did not sell grain, and now there is still half of the rice in the warehouse, in previous years, the grain will be eaten until the beginning of spring, and then go to the town to buy some back, until the first season of rice comes out, but this year, there is no plan in this regard.

"That..."Yang Weimin was not at ease, and wanted to ask, but was directly coaxed out by the impatient Yang Li, "Hurry up and work, the firewood at home is not enough, hurry up"

“… "Yang Weimin paused, but walked out obediently.

After Yang Li saw his dumbfounded eldest son leave, he began to ponder, and his face was a little serious, yes, if there is not enough food to eat, you have to buy food, and when the time comes... Yang Li is not worried that her own food will not be enough, she is afraid that the price of grain will be too high at that time, and if ordinary farmers cannot afford it, it will be a famine......

Yang Li is worried, but the villagers in Yangjia Village are not stupid, except for a few families who have sold grain, most of them still stay at home, but they will not have the idea of starvation.

With the example of Lao Zhang's family, several families in the village have also gone to the town to buy grain, and when they come back, they are all saying that the price of food has risen again, these news spread quickly, and within a few days, the people of the entire Yangjia Village know that the price of grain has risen again, and the people who have stored grain at home before are rejoicing, and the people who are greedy for the rise in food prices and sell the grain are beating their chests one by one, complaining that they sold it early.

But this has become a fact, even if you regret it, it's useless, life has to go on.

After some more time, the rumors of buying grain like this in the village gradually disappeared, because the people in the village who were short of grain had already bought food, and it was not difficult to get through, and there was no bad news left in the villages adjacent to Yangjia Village.

When Chunqiu thought that all this was going to end, her father Yang Weibai brought bad news from Montenegro Town, Qingshan Town, which is close to Montenegro Town, began to have a famine.
