Chapter 582: Buying Food
The frost finally calmed down the villagers.
"Brother, you can't lie to us, you must come and collect our wood! We promise to sell you the best timber, you won't be able to buy it anywhere else! ”
Frost was reassured that the villagers were finally not blocking the road and letting the ox carts carrying the timber leave.
Because I had to take care of three ox carts, the return trip was much slower.
It took more than an hour to come, and it took more than two hours to go back.
When I got home, it was already early afternoon.
Gan Lin steamed a lot of steamed buns and steamed buns at noon, and also baked bread and biscuits, and he was not busy until this time.
Hearing the movement outside, he guessed that Zhou Tian and them were back, so he opened the door and went out to see.
Seeing that the three ox carts outside were full of wood, Gan Lin was very surprised, "I only went out for half a day to buy so much wood?" ”
It seems that there is indeed a lot of wood in this Mutang Town.
Gan Shuang led the horse to the stream to let it drink, and then said to Gan Lin with a smile: "We are lucky to find these eldest brothers in their village, and almost every household has saved wood. This is just a few families' timber, but there are still a lot of them in the village! If the whole village is brought back with timber, it will be enough for half a year. ”
Gan Lin hurriedly greeted them: "After such a long journey, you haven't eaten yet, right?" I steamed steamed buns and steamed buns, if you don't dislike it, come in and eat some. ”
Several villagers who drove ox carts to deliver timber were first shocked by the Gan family's mansion, and then they were a little overwhelmed by Gan Lin's hospitality.
When he came back to his senses, he jumped out of the ox cart with a red face and helped unload the wood, "Thank you for your kindness, I won't eat the meal, we have to rush home before dark!" ”
Frost Fall walked quickly to Gan Lin's side and said, "Linlin, their village is at the foot of the mountain, and there is a drought this year, and there is no harvest at all. Originally, I could still make a living by hunting, but recently the mountains are also dangerous, there are tigers and bears blind, and several people in the village have been injured, and no one dares to hunt......"
When Gan Lin heard the tiger and the bear blind, his eyelids jumped sharply.
Then I heard Ganshuang continue to say: "I think that the price of grain in the rice shop in the town has risen, instead of buying rice, they should sell the millet directly, the price is not so high, and it can be stored for a long time." Linlin, what do you think? ”
Gan Lin raised his eyebrows and looked at Sweet Frost and said, "Third brother, your idea is good!" I went to Sister Jinxiu's house again in the morning, and she said that her family could sell us a thousand catties of grain. In addition, the people in the village have heard that the price of grain has risen, and they plan to sell more grain this year. In this way, there should be quite a few in our village. ”
Ganshuang smiled and said, "Then I'll ask them what they think later, and if they plan to buy millet, I'll help them inquire in the village and make a count." ”
Gan Lin nodded and said, "Go ahead!" ”
While the frost was falling to talk to the villagers, Gan Lin went back to the house and poured a few bowls of water and filled a few plates of steamed buns.
When the villagers heard what Gan Shuang said, they were all very excited, and they were full of gratitude: "Brother, you have really helped us a lot this time. Now the crops in your village have started to be harvested, right? Let's ask, if someone sells grain, we will buy it now, and we will pull it back in an ox cart. ”
Saying that, they couldn't wait for a moment, and they were about to buy food with the frost.
