Chapter 265: Stockpiling Food [2]

Zhang Tiezhu just expressed his doubts and worries, and it was impossible to force others to be the same as himself.

So after saying this, Zhang Tiezhu left and went to the old house, although he cut off the relationship with his mother and eldest brother, but he still wanted to inform him, in case there was a real flood one day, there would be no harvest, and people would starve to death.

In the past, after the floods, when every household ran out of food, many people starved to death.

No matter what, it's his own father and mother, even if they don't come and go, they can't watch them starve to death.

After Zhang Tiezhu said that he wanted to hoard grain in the rising flood, Jiang Yumei didn't take it to heart, but felt that Zhang Tiezhu was too exaggerated, and Yu Laidi was also disdainful, so he was reluctant to spend money to hoard grain.

The rain may stop someday.

Cheng Wenying listened to it, she was very anxious, and told her husband about it, and the two of them persuaded her father-in-law and mother-in-law to stock up on food every day, this rain has been falling for more than 20 days, and if it goes on like this, it will really rise a lot!

When the flood comes, there will be nothing left!

There are no crops!

It's a pity that Jiang Yumei and Zhang Dequan didn't listen at all.

Xu Langzhong, Grandma Li and Erdan's father listened to Zhang Tiezhu's words, and more or less hoarded some food.

Li Hongxiang went to her mother's house early the next morning, and when she talked about it, it turned out that her father and mother had started to stock up yesterday, and they were going to come to her house today to let her and Tiezhu stock up, but I didn't expect her to come first.

So Li Hongxiang was in a hurry to go home again, afraid that the water would suddenly rise and there would be no one at home.

And here Cheng Wenying and Zhang Tieshi also continued to persuade Jiang Yumei to stock up on grain, Jiang Yumei was a little panicked in her heart after all, so she took out a tael of silver to stock up on grain, and when she went to the county, she realized that the coarse grain had risen to thirty wen a bucket! Even the most unpalatable wheat rice has risen to 15 wen a bucket!

You must know that in the past, this kind of wheat rice that did not peel off the shell was two pennies a bucket.

As for the fine rice, after looking at it, it has risen to fifty wen a bucket!

If this momentum continues, food will not be able to be bought!

I didn't buy much food for one or two silver, but I spent it, and after returning home, Zhang Tieshi said this, Jiang Yumei regretted it, she knew that she would have hoarded it earlier, how did she know that food had risen so fast!

Many people in the village panicked, because they were afraid that the crops would be washed away when the flood came, and they were afraid that the whole village would be flooded......

Li Zheng was anxious about this matter, three days and two heads of the county said about this matter, Lord Liang was also very worried about this matter, there are more than 200 villages in Zhongyun County, large and small, if this is really a flood, so many villagers can do it!

"It's been raining for almost a month, and I don't know when it will stop, and the rice at home is about to become moldy." Zhang Tiezhu sat on the stool with a sad face, looking at the gloomy sky outside the house, and felt his heart heavy.

The water level in the river is almost up to the ground, and it is still moderate rain, and if it rains heavily for several days in a row, it is estimated that the whole village will be gone.

Su Jinse was also extremely worried in his heart, "Let's make a room to come out and put the food, and put the food on the bed, which is better than putting it on the ground, which is easy to get damp." ”

Zhang Tiezhu nodded in agreement, so Zhang Zhiqiang and Zhang Zhiwen's brothers used the room to store food, meat and vegetables, and at night Li Hongxiang took Zhang Yuxiu and Su Jinse to sleep, and Zhang Tiezhu took his two sons to sleep.

Early the next morning, the rain did not stop, but it was heavier.

Zhang Tiezhu came back from Lizheng's house, his face was gloomy, because the rain was not good recently, so he hadn't gone to the county to sell chicken cakes for several days, "Hey, the water level of the river at the entrance of our village has risen a lot, we have to find a way to solve this problem." ”
