Chapter 1223 - Buying Grain

She can still wait, but this city is impossible to be so imprisoned forever, it can be done for a short time, and the people will complain for a long time, there is no country in this world, it is only allowed to enter and not let out, even if King Fenglun is willing to close the city gate for the rest of his life, but he is also the emperor who asks Cangtao.

And once it really scared her, her clothes were almost soaked, and now even if the wind blows, it can make her shiver all over.

She only thinks about Shuanghe Village now, the pure land in the village, which is also a peaceful place, she will be safe there, as long as she gets there, no one will beat her idea.

As soon as possible, she found a grain and oil store, there are a lot of people in and out of this store, she saw that the fifth uncle had been here, and the fifth uncle could buy it in this place, which means that the rice and noodles here should not be too expensive, and the price will be relatively fair.

She stepped forward and grabbed a handful of the grain in the bag, the grain was very clean, even the inside of the rice and noodles was very clean.

to be an honest businessman.

"Ahh......hh

She stretched out her hand and pointed to the rice.

The shopkeeper walked over, and he also knew that Shen Qingci said this, what does it mean, this is dumb.

But no matter how dumb they were, they were all guests, so they also introduced to her, "Polished rice is one hundred wen a catty," and after he finished speaking, he also looked at the clothes on Shen Qingci's body, and this look also knew that it was from an ordinary family, so he also introduced the rice around him to her.

"Brown rice can be cheaper, about 20 wen a catty, although it is not as delicious as polished rice, but the brown rice in their rice row is better than the ordinary rice row."

"The taste is almost close to other people's polished rice."

"Well...... "the shopkeeper thought for a moment, "and the new grain is coming down soon." ”

"I will pay you eighty wen a pound for polishing rice, and fifteen wen a pound for brown rice, what do you think?"

Shen Qingci now has eight hundred taels of silver in his hand, these eight hundred taels of silver are not enough, but it is not too much, I knew that she would have taken more, forget it, anyway, it is the same in the fifth uncle's place, when there is no rice and grain, they will buy it themselves.

It's that this polished rice is a bit expensive, and one or two pieces of silver can only buy about ten catties, and she only has eight or two hundred silver, and she has to leave a coil out of the city.

said that they bought a lot, but they couldn't withstand the three years of eating and drinking, especially the fifth uncle's family had no land to plant, not as good as those villagers, no matter what, they could always grow something in their fields to feed their stomachs, so these eight hundred taels seem to be much, in fact, buying thousands of catties of grain, it is not much to eat.

She touched the brown rice again, which she had also eaten at the fifth uncle's house, and the taste was indeed not as soft and delicious as the polished rice, but it was not too unpalatable, and in the village, most people also ate this kind of rice.

Therefore, Shen Qingci decided to use most of the silver to buy brown rice and rough noodles, and then buy some polished rice noodles and put them away, although these grains are heavy grains, they will not be bad in two or three years.

She touched her body for a while, and then took out some silver tickets, and then took out two hundred taels of silver tickets from them, put them at the shopkeeper, and then pointed to the rough noodles.

She took out another three hundred taels and pointed to the brown rice.

Another hundred taels, this refers to polished rice and fine noodles.

The shopkeeper was holding a few hundred taels of silver tickets in his hand, and his eyes were wide.

"Little lady, do you really want to buy these?"

Shen Qingci nodded, she was not used to talking, so she bought these, and the remaining silver tickets were her travel expenses, and she couldn't spend them.

When she had finished shopping, she went to the inn, and after paying some money, she pulled the carriage over.

It's just that the carriage is too small, and the carriage can only sit people and can't put things, and it is impossible for Shen Qingci to tear down the shed of the carriage, so now she is worried about how to bring these back.

"Little lady, this is a lot, or I will have someone send it back to you, and I won't accept the cash."

Give? Shen Qingci frowned, she didn't want people to know where the grain was going to be sent, if there was really a famine in the future, it would not be a good thing for the shopkeeper to think about it again.

People say that wealth is moving, but don't forget that sometimes no amount of money can buy food, and you can buy the next life.

Shen Qingci herself was to save the fifth uncle's family, but she didn't cause chaos to the fifth uncle's family, or even hurt the lives of their family, but when she thought about it again, she didn't think about buying so much when she came, just because these rice noodles were really cheap, and she didn't know if she would have the opportunity to see the fifth uncle and the fifth aunt again in the future.

And she thought about it, where is there a place to put food? Let her go over to move food every day, it is inconspicuous, there are too many grains, it is not that she can move one or two crystals, and she is also afraid, what if she is caught by King Fenglun?

She couldn't take such a risk, and she couldn't afford to take such a risk.

It's just that she doesn't know where to put these things?

The shopkeeper may also have seen Shen Qingci's embarrassment.

"Or, is that so?"

The shopkeeper proposed, "I know of a house where there is no one, and we put all the food there, how about you go and get it yourself?" ”

Shen Qingci didn't understand, why did he say that?

"Heh......" the shopkeeper laughed.

"The little lady may not know something, but when some people buy food, they don't want people to know, so sometimes they will put it in our house for an excuse, and then pull it away by themselves."

"Little lady, don't worry." Now the shopkeeper stopped smiling, and his tone couldn't be true, "There are some things hidden in anyone's heart, we are not those troubled people, you can rest assured, after the food is put away, we will not be in the past, and how to use the food at that time is also up to you." ”

Shen Qingci thought about it, and finally nodded her head, in fact, she was still afraid of being deceived, but she also felt inexplicably, this shopkeeper was not deceiving, such a big shop, I think it has been open for a long time, credit is very important, and this shopkeeper is also extraordinary, it should be a good family, it is impossible to deceive her of such a few hundred taels of silver, she is also a businessman, such a thing of killing chickens and taking eggs will never be done.

So she believed in the shopkeeper, and asked the shopkeeper to help find that place to put the grain, and she herself was going to leave, but it turned out that she ran into a jar on the ground

She pointed to the jar again, and asked the shopkeeper silently, what is this?

"Huh this?"

The shopkeeper walked over, "These are all pickled vegetables, and when there are no vegetables to eat in winter, you can take them out and eat them." ”
