Chapter 394 Buying Food
Yuan Dashuo and his wife also felt shocked when they heard it, it is not a good thing that this world is chaotic.
Yuan Man thanked the shopkeeper again before saying goodbye to him and preparing to go home with her father.
The ox cart came out of the backyard of Mingyue Tower, turned a corner, and drove towards the downtown area.
It was already afternoon, but the sun was still shining hard, baking the earth.
The hearts of Yuan Dashuo and his wife were anxious from the time they talked about the drought in the north.
After all, what I'm most afraid of here is some natural disaster, the houses in the village have not been built since the previous rainstorm, how many people are still living with relatives?
Wen shook Yuan Dashuo's arm uneasily, and said worriedly, "What can I do about this?" If there is a drought in the north, and the refugees come here, then we will not be able to do business. ”
Yuan Dashuo was more reliable, and comforted when he heard this: "If you really want to do this, there is no way to do it, take a step at a time, and besides, the shopkeeper of Fang Caisi also said it, let's leave more food at home and go out less, and the refugees will not dare to really mess around." ”
As for business, is life or money important? So you have to put it down first.
Fortunately, their family's business relies on dried vegetables, and they can save up in the sun if they can't finish eating.
When the situation is better, you can pull it over and sell it again.
It's just that other people's lives are going to be difficult, let alone the people in the village.
Yanjiang Town is close to the river and is a water town, so droughts rarely occur here.
The only danger is the riot of the refugees, and the people are really hungry, let alone fierce.
There are also many rivers near Qingshan Village, and there has never been a drought before, so I am not afraid.
Yuan Dashuo thought about it and found that it was really like what the shopkeeper said, as long as there was less food at home, it would be done.
No matter how casual the village is, it is very united once something happens, and outsiders have to weigh their courage when they invade, and if they dare to commit trouble, the young adults in the village do not agree.
After hearing the comfort, Wen gradually became less afraid, and felt very relieved to have her own husband.
Yuan Dashuo laughed at her and said, "Okay, what do you want to do so much?" If you encounter something, you will deal with it, look at your timidity, not as bold as our two girls..."
And it's just speculation, as long as there is a rain in the north in the near future, it can be solved.
Wen Shi glanced at Yuan Dashuo with disgust when he heard this, and then looked back at the little girl who was looking around, and saw that she was very calm and calm, and he was even more relieved.
Yuan Manzheng is looking for grain shops around, ready to fill the food and seasonings at home nearby, her family has grown all vegetables and has not planted some food, so she needs to purchase.
As for her mother's worries, although she is also worried, she is more like her father's thoughts.
The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth.
It's useless to keep worrying about it now, but it's just when things are solved.
It's like stocking up on some food now, and there is no shortage of money at home anyway.
So when he saw the grain shop, Yuan Man stopped his father and mother in front of him to stop.
Yuan Dashuo also stopped the ox cart when he heard the sound, turned around and asked, "What's wrong with the second girl?" ”
Yuan Man said about hoarding some food, she looked at the street here again and said, "Then Daddy, you take Auntie to buy something else, I'll buy food." ”
The main thing is that she also wants her mother to relax, originally her mother was weaving cloth at home all day, and finally took her out for a trip, but she also encountered a bad thing.
And this street is full of shops visited by civilians, so let her father take her mother to play.
Yuan Dashuo understood Yuan Satisfied's thoughts in seconds, so he smiled at Wen's family: "Then let's go buy something else." ”
Wen thought it was faster to move separately, so he nodded and smiled and said yes.
Yuan Manmu saw her father and mother drive the ox cart two steps to the side, and she herself stopped the ox cart and tied it to the wooden post on the left side of the shop, and then went in alone.
There's just a guy in the shop who is busy.
When he saw a bright little girl coming in, he greeted with a smile, "What does the girl want?" ”
There are many girls and boys in the town who come alone to buy a few catties of rice or soy sauce, or to make wine.
So the guy thought he wanted these, but Yuan Man was stunned when he opened his mouth, and it took a while to react and ask, "Do you really want so much?" ”
Yuan Man remembered his age, thinking that he felt that he was messing around, so he took out fifty taels of silver tickets to show him, and said with a smile: "Little brother, I really came to buy food." ”
The guy was overjoyed when he saw it, and hurriedly smiled: "Yo, I didn't have long eyes and almost missed the God of Wealth Grandma, you wait, I will immediately open an order for you to load!" ”
Seeing that Yuan Man showed out the silver ticket, the guy even brought an honorific title to his words, and he was so polite.
If it is a big farm, it will definitely not be so diligent for hundreds of catties of grain.
But the people living here in the south of the town are all small merchants and hawkers, and they usually don't have much money in their hands, so they buy some rice and noodles for three or five catties, and then buy them after eating.
In this way, they can also put more money in their hands to deal with emergencies, and in case the price of food fluctuates again, they can also save some price differences.
As for the slightly larger families in the north or south of the town, they all have farms to deliver grain and vegetables.
I don't buy it at the food store.
This situation has led to the fact that the grain stores here rarely encounter such large orders for thousands of catties of trading.
Isn't that just happy, man?
Yuan Man directly asked for 500 catties of rice, 100 catties of white noodles, 100 catties of multigrain noodles, 100 catties of red beans and mung beans, and 100 catties of unshelled rough grains for chickens.
In addition to this, there are twenty catties of soy sauce, twenty catties of brown sugar, ten catties of vinegar, and fifty catties of coarse salt.
Pick up the mess of spices and spices, and that's pretty much it.
The guy was alone, and after opening the order, he hurriedly picked up the goods for Yuan Man and moved the goods to the car.
Yuan Man couldn't intervene, so he watched him happily liquidate the goods and then load them on the ox cart.
Wait for the board car behind the big black bull to be loaded with goods, and Yuan Man will follow up the whole process to make sure that it is correct before paying.
provoked the guy to say good things again and again.
Yuan Man smiled and nodded and was walking away from the store, when the woman who had been waiting quietly for a while inside said to the young man, "... Come to two catties of white noodles, yes, Xiao San'er, where did this girl come from? How do you buy so much rice? Do you own a restaurant at home? What a face, a new one? ”
The guy named Xiao San'er just smiled and said, "Maybe, I don't know..."
Yuan Man only thinks that this south side of the town is really not big, and most of the people who live here know about it, but there are really few shops here that give black faces.
And the human touch is also quite sufficient.
On the contrary, the residents here are all budget-conscious, but they are not easy to fool.
Motoman loosened the rope tied to the pillar and led Daikoku towards the front.
Her father and mother were on this street, and they walked two steps forward to meet them.
Yuan Man is not in a hurry.
Sure enough, she didn't walk a few hundred meters before she found her father and mother picking things next to each other at a stall.
Yuan Man found them, and Yuan Dashuo and his wife naturally saw her coming.
After setting Da Hei aside and setting it up, she came to her father's side and asked, "What are you looking at?" ”
