Lin Huan'er, this little girl, is generous and straightforward, and often brings him good things, Meng Dahe likes her very much, stopped what he was doing, he beckoned Lin Huan'er and Li Zheng to sit down, "Why haven't you come here these days, you haven't been to the mountain recently?" ”

Li Zheng nodded, "Recently, Uncle Li and I have been busy, and Huan'er's family is building a house again, so we don't have time to go up the mountain, and we may not go to the mountain in the future." ”

"How?" Meng Dahe asked.

Li Zheng smiled, "Huan'er can cook, we have found a new job." He came to see Meng Dahe this time, and he also wanted to make the lie more perfect, so as not to meet one day, Meng Dahe suddenly popped out, "Is there any goods recently?" "No matter how smart and witty he is, he can't explain it to Uncle Li.

Meng Dahe nodded, "That's a good thing, although hunting is a lot of money, it's also dangerous." It's good to have a living and do it. ”

Li Zheng nodded and unloaded the bamboo basket on his back, "Uncle Meng, we brought you something good this time." After speaking, he handed the bamboo basket to Meng Dahe.

"Yo!" Meng Dahe exclaimed, he picked up the two foxes from the basket and checked them, "It's a pity that they are a little smaller." ”

"It's the little skin that is shiny, and it's spring and summer, and the fox is not too fat, so it's not easy to get both." Li Zheng said, "Uncle Meng, for the sake of our last sale, give us a fair price, and we will use the money to buy grain." ”

"Buying grain?" Meng Dahe asked.

Li Zheng looked around and lowered his voice, "It's also hailing on your side, and it's also raining in our village, and the green seedlings that have just grown in the ground have all been ruined." Uncle Li said that he was afraid that the price of food would rise, so he would take us to buy grain as soon as the hail stopped. Uncle Meng, you can buy more later. ”

Meng Dahe only deals with game fur on weekdays, and rarely pays attention to crop work, but when he was reminded like this, he reacted, "That's right, that's right." The other villages don't know what the situation is, what if the grain can't be harvested this year. He slapped himself on the thigh, "Loser." ”

Seeing Li Zheng and Lin Huan'er looking at him strangely, Meng Dahe didn't treat these two as children, and complained, "My second brother, the one who came here to help before, went to the boat as an apprentice, and accidentally which board at the bottom of the boat was not covered, and he soaked half a boat of grain from other people, and he didn't make a penny, and he lost money to buy all the soaked food." These days, I am clamoring to raise pigs and keep food to feed the pigs. ”

"Moldy grain, pigs will die if they eat it." Lin Huan'er answered sincerely, which made Meng Dahe's face even more ugly.

Two foxes, not much meat, in fact, are selling a fox skin, and Meng Dahe gave a price of ten taels of silver. After getting the silver given by Meng Dahe, Lin Huan'er finally breathed a sigh of relief, now that he has money, it doesn't matter how much grain he buys.

The two hurried to the nearest first grain shop to find Li Yuan, but they didn't find it, and the second one was still no, until they walked to the third store, only to see Li Yuan standing at the door of the grain store, "Shopkeeper, I understand your concerns, but I agreed with you in advance, so I left to buy an ox cart, you can't cheat me like this." ”

The shopkeeper Liu of the grain store apologized to Li Yuan vigorously, "The guest officer understands and understands, will we refund you the deposit without a penny?" ”

Li Yuan stretched out his hand to hold Shopkeeper Liu, "I used to be in business, I know, it's all negotiable, Shopkeeper Liu, let's borrow a step ......?" ”

"Don't borrow a step." Shopkeeper Liu shook his hand with a bitter face, "Didn't you see it just now?" The officers and soldiers counted the grain from house to house, and if they wanted to reconcile the accounts when they returned, they couldn't get a single point short, guest officer, if you really want to buy grain, you can come a few more times. ”

"What's going on?" Li Zheng walked up.

Li Yuan sighed and waved his hand, "It's better to be a step late." I went to buy an ox cart on the front foot, and the officers and soldiers on the back foot came to the grain store to check the accounts. From now on, all grain stores in Yunxi County will be controlled by officers and soldiers, and the sale of grain will be restricted, and each household can only buy 10 catties of grain every day. To buy grain, you need to register your household registration. ”

After speaking, he glanced at Lin Huan'er and pushed her to the shopkeeper, "We are two households, first load me ten catties of white rice and ten catties of rough grain." ”

Over there, Shopkeeper Liu registered, and Li Yuan lamented to Li Yuan here, "In this way, it should be hail in the county, and the county lord reacted too quickly." However, it is also a good thing, the county lord's quick response shows that he attaches great importance to it, although the price of grain can rise a little, the shortage of grain should not occur. ”

"It's hard to say." Li Zheng frowned slightly, "Don't you think he overreacted?" Now that the hail has just fallen, and the damage to the towns has not yet been reported, he should not have been so anxious about food, and he directly sent officers and soldiers to travel like this, not like to stabilize grain prices, but like grabbing grain. ”

"Grab food? A dignified county, what to do to grab grain. ”

Li Zheng's voice was lowered, "Don't you need food to pay taxes, pay the army, supply the Huaiwang army, and provide disaster relief in the later stage?" What if there isn't much left in the grain depot? ”

Li Yuan shivered instantly.

This situation was so terrible that he didn't dare to think deeply, and absentmindedly took the grain bag in the hands of Shopkeeper Liu, and he turned around with the two children, "Let's go, go to the other two grain stores to buy the portions first." ”

Lin Huan'er naturally heard Li Zheng's words, she was not a child in her core, she could understand the deep meaning of Li Zheng's words, she sat on the ox cart for a while, and when Li Yuan went to the second grain store to buy grain, she secretly tugged on Li Yuan's sleeve, "If we ask Uncle Meng to buy his soaked rice, can Uncle Meng sell it?" ”

"You can save this, too?" Li Zheng was surprised.

Lin Huan'er paused, "If you can't save more, you can still store two thousand catties of grain." There are seven people in our three families, and it's enough to save two thousand catties a year. And my space can be kept fresh, and the food will not become moldy. This is the first time Lin Huan'er has mentioned space in front of Li Zheng. With the idea of breaking the jar, thinking that Li Zheng already knew so much anyway, it didn't matter if he knew more.

Space? This is the reason why Huan'er has a temperament that is different from others?

After digesting it for a long time, Li Zheng couldn't help but ask first, "Is that immortal art?" ”

"No, it's a talent. However, it can be dangerous to be known by others. You know, I can't beat anybody. ”

Li Zheng nodded, his good-looking eyebrows raised, "If you really do this, I can't guarantee that I will make up a flawless lie for you." But if you are exposed, I will definitely protect you. ”

Lin Huan'er turned his head to look at him, a ten-year-old boy, his face was full of melancholy and solemnity that did not belong to him. Somehow, Lin Huan'er laughed out loud with a "poof".
