Chapter 254: Life in Yancheng
Of course, for farmers, every time a grain merchant comes to harvest grain, the price is always very low, so that they do not make any money at all. And Liu Yun is different, on the basis of the one dollar that ordinary grain merchants can give, Liu Yun directly gives two yuan.
However, Liu Yun also has a request, that is, she must help to give all the shells away.
The price has doubled, and who hasn't had a shelling machine at home these days? Of course, I agreed. In this way, Liu Yun has received about 20,000 catties of rice in less than two days.
Fu Yanqing sighed a little, it seems that Liu Yun's speed is still very fast.
But 20,000 catties of rice is nothing to their Yancheng at all, even if they have more, they can accept it.
However, she didn't have much money on hand, so she planned to start settling accounts with Liu Yun with gold. Liu Yun naturally accepted it, you must know that the price of gold has always been higher than the price of silver, and it is a much higher kind.
Although silver is said to be easy to shoot with yourself, it is still not as good as gold in the end.
At the same time, the city lord of Juncheng arrived in Yancheng.
"The Lord of the Imperial City?" Fu Yanqing was about to forget about this person, if it wasn't for her subordinates to report it, she might not really be able to remember. Isn't this the same man who said he was going to buy salt from his own hands? I don't know what he is doing at this time?
But if he comes to buy salt from him at this time, I'm afraid he really doesn't have that much salt in his hands!
So Fu Yanqing told Liu Yun about the need for salt again, and asked Liu Yun to find a way to help her buy some more salt!
Liu Yun saw that Fu Yanqing needed more and more things, and her heart became clearer and clearer. These are all opportunities to make money on their own, and now this opportunity is already in front of them, and they must firmly seize these opportunities.
"Don't worry, I'll be ready for you!" But Fu Yanqing immediately smiled when she saw Liu Yun's reply to herself, she knew that Liu Yun would definitely not let herself down, didn't she already tell herself the answer now?
"Since the city lord of Juncheng is here, then please come in!"
Mu Yangqing has been carefully observing Yancheng since he stepped into Yancheng, and although his Juncheng is now able to barely support it. But in fact, it is already stormy.
Especially since they've run out of salt lately, he's trying to think of something else. But it can't be helped, who doesn't have so precious salt in their hands now? So he found a lot of people, and no one wanted to sell salt to himself.
In the end, he thought of Fu Yanqing, and they had negotiated cooperation at the beginning. Of course, so much time has passed, and there have been so many changes in the middle, he doesn't know if Fu Yanqing still thinks the same way now.
If Fu Yanqing was no longer what he had in mind, then even if he came, he would have run in vain. But no matter what, Yancheng was already his last hope, so he had to make such a trip in person before he could die.
But when he arrived in Yancheng, he found that the citizens of Yancheng did not seem to be as depressed as he imagined.
But soon Mu Yangqing denied his idea, what the hell was he thinking! Don't you know when it is? Why do you think that the people of Yancheng will live better than their Juncheng?
Although he didn't want to admit it, he still inquired with many residents of Yancheng about their living conditions!
At first, some people were reluctant to tell him, but later I heard him say that he was an old acquaintance with the city lord, so he was willing to reveal a little to him.
Although the residents of Yancheng say that their lives are not very good, there is absolutely no problem with food and clothing. Every day, you can queue up to go to the regional center set by the City Lord's Mansion to buy the food you need, of course, the amount cannot exceed three days.
However, this is not a big deal for the citizens of Yancheng, and they can't do anything now anyway. It's better to go to the queue to buy food, not to mention that they can still buy food to eat now, which already makes them very happy.
Moreover, the people who went to the queue to buy food were all unemployed, and those who did have jobs also started to work normally after the heavy snowfall. In this way, no one will delay anything, so why not?
Of course, the only small regret may be that they haven't eaten vegetables for too long.
At the end of the attack, the snow outside had not melted, and they had no way to pick up all the fallen supplies. But then the snow stopped, and the lord told them to pick up all the supplies.
According to the amount of twenty catties per household, of course, the citizens who participated in the attack day received three times the amount.
So they are really not hungry at all in terms of meat, but the feeling of not having food is really too difficult. At this time, if anyone has such a stack of pickles, it will be beautiful to death.
So some people use their little brains, since the family can grow food, is it possible to grow vegetables? Anyway, now that food can be bought, can we change the name of the place where we used to grow food to grow vegetables?
Not to mention anything else, even if you can grow Chinese cabbage, it's good!
There is not only one person who thinks like this, and everyone has a tacit understanding of each other. I didn't expect this to really solve the problem of dishes!
Mu Yangqing felt that the reason why the people of Yancheng were living a good life was because he didn't see a single person who starved to death and froze to death in Yancheng, which was what surprised him the most.
"It's really hard to have a cold winter, but our city lord is a capable person, and he prepared the coal early. That's why we can get through it! What's more, we also have a cotton clothing factory, where the cotton clothes are good and warm, and you only need 200 copper coins to buy them! ”
The citizens of Yancheng are not short of money, so it is not an unacceptable thing for them to buy a cotton suit for two hundred copper coins, but they still feel that this is a good thing, a great thing.
This Yancheng actually prepared coal in advance, and there are also cotton clothes?
Thinking about the people of Juncheng because of the lack of firewood, they huddled together in the cold to keep warm, he felt that his city lord was really not very good! If you have the ability to do this, you won't let your people suffer such a tribulation!
Speaking of which, isn't it useless for yourself?
So he was even more eager to see Fu Yanqing, and he felt that he was very likely to come to Yancheng this time. Maybe it's really possible for you to buy the salt you want in Yancheng, not to mention, there may be some unexpected gains.
At the beginning, Fu Yanqing and Mu Yangqing didn't have much contact, but they had some friendship. In addition, there is also the cooperation that was negotiated at the beginning, so in addition to being a little embarrassed at the beginning, the two of them quickly recovered from the matter.
