Gao Dashan showed his intention with a serious face, and the old village chief's face gradually sank.

"Dashan, what do you say? Encourage villagers not to sell grain? Why? ”

You must know that their farmers rely on this harvest all year round, and every family is waiting for grain to be exchanged for money, which is enough for a large family to spend and eat.

"Old village chief, I just came back from the town, and I found that someone was secretly buying a large amount of grain, and the price of grain has risen, and I am afraid that it will be ...... recently."

The old village chief chuckled in his heart, he knew too well how serious what Gao Dashan said.

Forty years ago, he caught up with it, when the old village chief was still a half-old child.

"Dashan, is there any basis for this? This is no joke! ”

"I have a friend who works in a rice shop, and he told me about it himself."

Storing food privately is a violation of national law, and if there is no one who really relies on it, who will know.

The old village chief didn't have a charter for a while, after all, the stakes were very high, and Gao Dashan didn't press back, so he left after saying a few words.

Then it was still pouring rain, and it was getting worse and harder.

On the third day, on the third day, the old village chief couldn't help it and took the initiative to find Gao Dashan.

"Dashan, you're right, I'm afraid this thing is not good, I have already told the villagers one by one not to sell grain for the time being, not to mention that the weather has been bad in recent days, and there is really no chance to sell it, every family has surplus grain in their hands, but the next ......"

The stakes are very high, and it is not good to say it openly, otherwise it will make people panic, and it will really be a big deal.

"Don't worry, the village chief, I know it in my heart."

Only then did the old village chief leave happily.

In the meantime, Gao Dashan also specially notified the old house, but few people went to their hearts, and the Dafang Xing family muttered that the third room was a demon again, but Gao Dashan's second brother Gao Dahai, who was calm and simple, and had always been kind to Gao Dashan's younger brother.

"Third brother, the second brother knows who you are, don't worry, I listen to you and don't sell grain."

Gao Dashan was speechless, patted the second brother's shoulder, and the tacit understanding between the brothers was tacit.

For several days in a row, the tall mountains were running around, and relatives and friends who had good relations went all over again.

Because of this incident, the green plum wine that Li Yunjiao was going to sell was also delayed.

Until a month later.

There was a great flood in the south, and the displaced people poured into the north, and the situation was serious and out of control.

Prices in cities and towns are soaring, supply exceeds demand, and there are lonely people everywhere.

Pingshan County is a mountain town close to the south, and the impact is very large.

In order to prevent the displaced people from entering, the county officials simply closed the town, and did not go inside or outside.

In this way, the nearby villages became the target of public criticism.

Li Yunjiao's location is the same as Ping'an Village.

The old village chief organized the young men in the village to form a patrol to defend day and night, for fear that the red-eyed homeless people would rush in and smash and loot.

This incident has already happened in other villages, and in the year of the disaster, the characteristics of human nature and evil have been infinitely magnified, and everything can be done.

"Yunjiao, I'm going to patrol today, you and the children are at home, don't go out, wait until I come back."

Fortunately, now I don't have to worry about food and clothing, and without the best of my in-laws, I have a lot of better days.

But there are always some people who remember to eat but not to fight.

The old house of the Gao family, the old lady and the big house disdained Gao Dashan's warning, and secretly sold the grain at a high price behind the back of the village chief.

Xing's maiden nephew, running in a big restaurant in the town, the restaurant owner has a high vision, he was the first to see that something was wrong, and stored food in private, Xue's nephew is a clever one, and he contacted the Gao family by threading.

There was also Xing's help, and the old lady was jealous of the few taels of silver, so she sold them.

This time it's a good thing, the famine is together, and the whole family is dumbfounded.

The Gao family split early, the second and third went out, the old two followed the eldest, and the fourth family also lived separately, but they still lived in the west cross courtyard of the old house.

The second child listened to Gao Dashan's words and saved the grain, but he couldn't stand the old Xue's crying and trouble, the second room and the family were sincere, and gave their share of the rations to the old house, but it was still not enough, and there were four or five people in the old house, and they couldn't solve the urgent need at all.

Xing was afraid of being complained, so he provoked the old Xue family to come to the third room to make trouble, and the third child encouraged everyone to save food, presumably his family must have enough.

Li Yunjiao looked coldly at the old Xue who was holding his neck and asked her and Gao Dashan for food, foaming at the mouth, accusing Gao Dashan of being unfilial.

Li Yunjiao sneered.

The legendary nose kick on the face, that's what it says.

"Mother, Dashan reminded you at that time, don't sell grain, why don't you listen? Now, at this time, where are you going to get grain for us? When the family was separated, there was only one acre of land at home, and you would know how much grain you were getting, right? Don't know who you're listening to? Say we have food? This man is clearly ill-intentioned. ”

"And ...... The village chief also had a notice, right? Coupled with the heavy rain for several days, how did the grain sell? ”

Li Yunjiao didn't say a word, Lao Xue's face darkened a little, and Xing shrank back.

Since that time, Li's mouth has become more and more powerful, and every sentence is stuck on the key points.

"It's useless to talk about it so far, mother! Li's she just doesn't want to give food, she sincerely wants to starve us to death! ”

Old Xue glanced at his eldest daughter-in-law, meaning that he would settle accounts with you later.

"The third child, this old lady will ask you, do you give it or not, is it possible that you will indulge your daughter-in-law and starve your father and mother to death?"

"San'er, when have you been so ruthless, even if you don't look at me and your father, the two old bones, your eldest brother's family, but your own nephew!"

Lao Xue's heart was punishing every sentence, and the stinging of the tall mountain heart and mouth were all painful.

When did he not be filial? Rather starve the former Li family and the child, let them mess around.

The children of the eldest brother's family are the roots of the old Gao family, aren't his children? Boa is only seven years old this year!

How far is his mother's heart? The hearts of the tall mountains are cold.

"If you want food, you can buy it with silver."

Li Yunjiao raised her head and said, "Didn't my mother sell a lot of silver?" It's perfect to buy it back now. ”

Xue's eyes widened, and he almost fell back in anger.

However, Xing's reaction was quick, and he persuaded in a low voice: "Mother, Li is right, now I can't buy food with silver, who knows how long this disaster will last?" It's important to save your life......"

Xing is used to calculating, doesn't Li want money? Give it to her, see how long she can hold the silver, and when she starves to death that day, what is not hers?

Just let that stupid Li family have fun.

The old Xue family has always had soft ears, otherwise he would not have been picked up by the Xing family again and again, and now he listened to Xing's idea and felt reasonable.

In the years of famine, who can take care of the silver, and whether they are full or not hungry is the last word.

"Done!"

Old Xue gritted his teeth and agreed.

Although Gao Dashan was puzzled, he did not say anything to stop it.

First, he couldn't really watch his father starve to death, and secondly, he ...... He believed in Lee.

The Li family will never joke with his own life and that of his children.
