Chapter 642: No Rice

Chapter 642

"It's not a big deal, it shouldn't make you too embarrassed, I want you to get a thousand stones of food in the shortest possible time."

"W-What? Girl, although I remember that there is a rice store in the city, but I can't save so much food, and it is still in the shortest possible time, the old man dares to ask, what is the use of this, girl? ”

Shen Junru smiled lightly, but just said, "I'm sorry, I can't tell you." ”

"This..."

The shopkeeper's face was embarrassed, but the rules are the rules, and when he took the warrant, whether he sought refuge or asked for money, he had to meet it.

It's just that the war ahead is tight, but this girl came to ask for so much food, why is it used?

After a moment of hesitation between reporting to the official and fulfilling his promise, he finally nodded.

"Give me three days, and the old man will fulfill the girl's request. Does the girl leave an address, and the old man sends someone to send it or..."

"Three days later, I will bring someone to pick it up, and there is a shopkeeper."

After speaking, Shen Junru didn't linger any longer, turned around and left Fengji Trading House.

Even if this news was uploaded, it couldn't reach Feng Qingfeng's ears for three days.

This one, it should be regarded as Feng Qingfeng's service for the country, and in the future, he will return it to him if he has the opportunity.

Song Xiao came out after him, such a simple matter, and used Miss Shen to run it herself?

Anyone with a warrant can come?

But he didn't ask that.

Out of the shop, Shen Junru turned his head and ordered, "You go to the major rice stores and buy some rice grains each, you don't need too much, spread out." ”

"Why not buy it all at once?"

Shen Junru glanced at him, but explained patiently.

"Buying too much will attract attention, usually large families have someone to buy, and then sent to the house by the rice shop. Second, if you buy out the rice shops, there will be a temporary shortage of food in the city, which will cause the price of rice to rise and the people in the city to panic. ”

Song Xiao was stunned for a moment, he didn't think of this aspect at all, opened his mouth, and finally just arched his hand, said "teachable" and then turned to leave.

When he returned to the inn, he met the oncoming Yi Xi, who seemed to be very happy, and held two strings of sugar gourds in his hands, and handed them to Shen Junru and Yingyue.

"Now, don't say I eat alone."

Shen Junru was stunned, but took it down, chuckled, and looked at the frozen moon.

"Taste it, it tastes good."

"yes, sweet and sour."

After receiving Shen Junru's praise, Yi Xi squinted with a happy smile, "I didn't expect this Humenguan Market to be quite interesting." You see, there's this..."

As he spoke, he opened the bag he was carrying, and it was full of gadgets scraped from the market, such as ghost masks, rattles, rubber people, etc.

"Don't you have these in southern Xinjiang?"

"We have a lot of Gu worms, and there are not so many rare ones."

This is the embodiment of the cultural differences between the North and the South.

As they were talking, suddenly, a group of people passed by them, and the passing wind lifted the curtain of Shen Junru's hood, the wind rose, the clouds moved, and the unfamiliar breath entered the nose, Shen Junru frowned slightly, although it was only a side face, it was enough to shock her.

"Yingyue, follow him, be careful, don't startle the snake, don't go back quickly."

"Yes,"

Yingyue replied in a low voice, grabbed a mask from Yi Xi's bag and put it on her face, and then quickly followed.

"Huh? What's going on? Do you want my help? ”

"Yes, yes."

"Really? What do you want me to do? ”

As soon as he heard that he wanted to help, Yi Xi's eyes instantly lit up, and he looked at Shen Junru for a moment.

But Shen Junru, who listened to it, chuckled, grabbed her wrist with her backhand, and said.

"Help escort me back to the inn."

What, what is this help!

"This is a very important task. I don't know kung fu, and I don't have the skills to survive, if I get lost and get tied, I use it to threaten Feng Min, my father and the court, it's a big mistake, so, you say, isn't it very important. ”

Yi Xi pondered slightly, stroked his chin and sighed.

"It makes sense."

It's a fool.

Yi Xi looked around vigilantly, and really escorted people all the way back to the inn, and said stiffly at the end.

"I just don't want Your Highness to be threatened because of you, forget it, I'll be a good person to the end."

"Yes, yes, yes, thank you Miss Yi."

As she spoke, Shen Junru took a sip of the teacup, then pinched a piece of peach blossom cake and handed it to Yi Xi.

"Try it, my little girl made it, it tastes very good, you can't eat it outside."

"Really? I'm picky about my tastes. ”

Yi Xi said that he was picky, but his hand took it very consciously, and he didn't seem to be worried at all that Shen Junru would add something to it, such as poison and the like.

After tasting one, Yi Xi squinted, and couldn't help but praise in her heart, "It tastes so good", but in front of Shen Junru, she couldn't say it!

After a while, Song Xiao came back one step ahead of Yingyue, in a hurry, a little hurried, and his face was still a little panicked.

"Miss Shen, it's not good."

"What's the matter? How can it be so fast? ”

"Don't mention it, something happened, the rice in the rice row was sold out."

"Sold out? The whole city has sold out of rice? ”

Yi Xi called out suddenly, but he was surprised.

There is no disaster and no difficulty, and the rice in this rice row is sold out! Isn't that surprising?

Shen Junru also raised her willow eyebrows, her fingers curled up slightly, and tapped lightly on the table.

"Miss Shen, how are you doing now? If the problem of grain and grass is not solved, then the army... I'm afraid it won't last more than a month! ”

"Oh, what are you yelling here, Mi Xing has no rice, you go to Mi Xing to roar."

Song Xiao was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Yi Xi to protect him, "Let's haw, let's go" like a little squirrel, holding the peach blossom cake in both hands, and gnawing a piece of pastry.

"The 1,000 stone meters of Fengji Commercial Bank sounds like a lot, but it can't stand the number of people, and it really can't last more than a month."

"So what do we do?"

"Wait."

"Wait? What are you waiting for, I'll go to another town and take a look, maybe I can..."

"Humen Pass is the largest market town within a radius of 100 miles, and all the other small cities add up to all the grain, not as much as the grain here, General Song, are you sure you want to run this trip in vain?"

Song Xiao really wanted to go back, how would she know if she didn't try!

"It's not a big deal, it shouldn't make you too embarrassed, I want you to get a thousand stones of food in the shortest possible time."

"W-What? Girl, although I remember that there is a rice store in the city, but I can't save so much food, and it is still in the shortest possible time, the old man dares to ask, what is the use of this, girl? ”

Shen Junru smiled lightly, but just said, "I'm sorry, I can't tell you." ”

"This..."

The shopkeeper's face was embarrassed, but the rules are the rules, and when he took the warrant, whether he sought refuge or asked for money, he had to meet it.

It's just that the war ahead is tight, but this girl came to ask for so much food, why is it used?

After a moment of hesitation between reporting to the official and fulfilling his promise, he finally nodded.
