Chapter 202: Stealing Water

Yan Peng is a knowledgeable person, and when he heard his words, he immediately nodded and said, "I know, thank you very much, I will definitely protect the people in my family, and you should pay attention to yourself." ”

"Hmm!" Yan Haodong nodded, said goodbye and left.

Some words don't need to be said too bluntly, as long as the other party can understand, Yan Peng's words just now prove that he has paid attention to this matter, so he won't say too much.

Soon the people in the village got the news that there might be a drought, and everyone should take care of the food at home, and they must not sell it, and if they can, they will buy some and come back.

For these words, some families attach great importance to it, and immediately go to buy coarse grains and come back, to ensure that the people in their family will be hungry for two years, while some families scoff, thinking that it is a fuss, every year there will be a drought in the village, how normal this is a thing!

But the drought will not have much impact and will pass, and now it is really not appropriate to mobilize the people for this drought, and finally knew that it was Yan Haodong who said it at the beginning, and some people asked Yan Haodong to mock him face-to-face.

Yan Haodong didn't pay attention to these people, anyway, he did what he should do, and as for the rest, he couldn't do anything.

Although the Yan family was his relative, he didn't open his mouth to remind him, what he knew was that the Yang family was a miser, and what he liked most was to save food, and the Yan family would definitely not go hungry.

In his previous life, although the food at home was not enough, it was not at all, but the Yang family felt that there were few people in the family who could save some food, so they drove him out to find prey and didn't want to feed him.

The people of Qingshui Village began to prepare, although some families did not believe this, but in the end they were also worried, although they did not follow the purchase of grain, there was no grain in the seller.

The price of grain slowly began to rise, at the beginning it rose by one penny, slowly it was three pennies, and on the last day it was one price, He Kexin began to beat the drum in his heart, this must be what Yan Haodong said.

Those merchants are very shrewd, and they have their own access to information, and if they can start to raise prices, they must be more profitable on the grain.

Now that the price of grain has risen, the price of the same grain has also risen, and they all began to want to sell their own grain to make money!

After Patriarch Yan found out, he went over with the village chief and taught these people a hard lesson, "Selling grain? You guys think about it, don't you know when it's now? It's been almost two months since it rained, and if there is a real drought, will your family be hungry and waiting to die? ”

The village chief was also very angry, he had said before that he couldn't sell grain, but as soon as the grain collector arrived in the village today, these people couldn't help it, "Are you asking for money and dying?" Just thinking about selling to make money, what should I do when I get hungry? ”

The faces of those who sold grain were a little uncomfortable, they thought that the grain was sold by their own family, but the village chief and the patriarch actually came to scold people, so that they didn't dare to speak.

"Okay, bring all your grain back, if anyone dares to sell grain again, I will expel him from the village, and when there is a real drought and hunger, our whole village will watch who is waiting to die!" The village chief said angrily.

After these words came out, these people didn't dare to move, so they could only obediently move their family's food back.

The grain vendor was not pleased, "Well, what is the matter with you? If you want to sell your own grain, can you manage it? ”

The village chief looked at him with a gloomy face and said, "Have you sold all the food in your house?" I know you're also here to make money, but is this time to make money and don't care about anything? ”

The peddler's expression changed slightly, "Is this willing?" I'm willing to buy and they are willing to sell, I've never forced them! ”

The village chief sighed, waved his hand and said: "Okay, we don't really say what happened to you, but at this time, it is most important to protect the talents in your village, everyone can see that there is going to be a disaster, and there will really be no food to eat at that time, how miserable it is!" “

The peddler stopped talking, and the village chief said, "All right, you can go!" We won't embarrass you. ”

The peddler waved his hand and left, anyway, if there was no one in this village to sell, he could go to other villages!

After the grain sales had passed, the people in the village finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

The people who thought it was okay also raised their vigilance, because after the Yan patriarch told them to pay attention, it has not rained, and the crops in the field have been dry and dying, and the wheat is about to be harvested at this time in previous years, and the wheat can be harvested when it turns yellow in about half a month, but the drought makes the wheat slowly die.

The people in the village were looking for buckets to carry the water from the river to the ground to water the ground, but it didn't work at all, the water was quickly dried up, and it really didn't have much effect on the crops, and the water in the river slowly dried up.

Everyone can no longer take care of the wheat in the field, the water for daily life has become a problem, the water needed for cooking every day is not enough, where can we take care of the crops!

There is a well in the village where people can usually draw water, but now the water level has dropped a lot due to the drought.

He Kexin also has a well at home, but because the well was relatively shallow at the beginning, there is no water now, but before the water dries, He Kexin put a bucket of water in the cellar with a big wooden barrel at home, which is used to save his life when he is forced to do so.

At the beginning, everyone in the village could fetch water at will, but later the water level dropped so much that it was stipulated that each family could only fetch one bucket of water from the well, and the water was not enough for many people, so many people did not pay attention to the water and it was stolen.

On this day, He Kexin was holding his bucket and preparing to fetch water, who knew that before he arrived, he heard a noise next to the well, He Kexin felt a little strange, and walked over to take a look, it turned out to be Wang Fang and Hua Feng quarreling.

"Huafeng, don't go too far, this water is what our family needs for a day, didn't you force us to die if you stole the water?"

Hua Feng pursed her lips disdainfully and said, "You don't talk nonsense here, what if I just take the water away?" It's as if you're dangerous, and your family is about to die! ”

Wang Fang's eyes widened angrily, and she snorted disdainfully, "What are you talking nonsense?" Your family is about to die, so don't curse our family here! ”

"Hmph, you are still so towards your family, who doesn't know that you and your man are slaves in that family, and you are still so protective of others, should I say that you are kind or stupid?" Hua Feng looked at Wang Fang domineeringly.

Wang Fang was so angry that she couldn't do it, so she jumped up and tore with Hua Feng, of course Hua Feng was not to be outdone, and the two of them fought.
