Chapter 11 Emergencies
If Yang Jing is not mistaken, it was precisely because of Huaiyin County and his party in his previous life that Jiang Qiubai accidentally met the destitute and desperate Lan Qiming in the Land Temple.
Lan Qiming is a man who values love and righteousness, and has been used by Jiang Qiubai many times since then.
In this life, she raced against time, and finally caught up with Jiang Qiubai, and it can be regarded as taking Lan Qiming, a business wizard, in advance.
Next, it's time to concentrate on Liuzhou.
The hour has just passed.
Uncle Liu followed Yang Jing's arrangement and went out to inquire twice, ensuring that the market price of grain in Huaiyin County had risen to the highest point.
She ordered people to put the boiled gruel into the washed pork belly, tie it with hemp rope, and send it to the county government and the main shops in Huaiyin County in batches to sell.
In terms of price, it has increased by more than half compared with what Uncle Liu and the three of them sold in the early morning.
In the past, it was to test whether the market could accept it, and in addition to the severe drought in Huaiyin, the government had already exercised control and strict control over grain prices, and did not allow market prices to be raised at all.
There was no one to coax her, so she had to coax herself.
A bag of pork belly can hold three spoonfuls of gruel, and a bucket of gruel can hold less than 25 bags of gruel, she ordered someone to make a total of three buckets of gruel and 20 bags of pork brisket sold in the morning, and there are more than 50 bags left, which is enough for her to get a sum back.
Although everyone is in danger in the face of natural disasters, her opportunistic approach is really against her conscience.
But how good was her conscience in the previous life? Can Heaven have mercy on her?
This conscience money, even if she doesn't earn it, someone has to earn it!
After thinking about this, she simply changed into a set of farmhouse cloth shirts and joined the ranks of selling porridge.
Shen Yao's face was beautiful, and he was not suitable for such a thing, so Yang Jing had to ask him to drive the carriage under the city gate and wait to answer it.
At that time, as soon as the porridge is sold out, he will turn around and leave Huaiyin County, even if the people in the government know, there is no way to investigate.
From a distance, Yang Jing saw a bunch of women of different colors gathered around the city, she stepped forward to push people away and looked up.
It was actually Shen Yao who fell asleep in the carriage, so he attracted a bunch of young women to watch.
She didn't want to step forward, so she had to pick up the stone on the ground and throw it at Shen Yao's head.
"Ahh The beautiful boy in the carriage woke up, "Who hit me?" Shen Yao said angrily, rubbed his eyes, and drove away the women gathered outside the carriage.
"Look at what! What's there to see? Go away, go away! ”
The women covered their mouths and snickered, and some even secretly left their silk scarves and handkerchiefs on the carriage, Shen Yao got up and took off the colorful and green silk scarves hanging on the carriage, and when he turned his head, he actually saw Yang Jing leaning on the side to watch the show.
He jumped out of the carriage and ran to her with a look of surprise, "Sold out so soon?" Why did you come back alone? ”
"You're embarrassed to say that I made you wait to meet us, but I didn't let you doze off in the carriage." She stretched out her hand and poked Shen Yao's white head, "It's just a dozing off, and it attracts so many women to watch." ”
"This, this is not the ...... I asked them to come" Shen Yao blushed and stammered.
"Okay, okay, you drive the carriage out of the city first, and I'll wait for Uncle Liu and them here."
Shen Yao reluctantly left, with a red dot printed on the door of his head.
Half an hour later, Uncle Liu and Uncle Zheng came back one after another, but the eldest Uncle Wang had not come back yet.
Yang Jing was a little uneasy in her heart, so she had to change her plan, "Uncle Liu, you and Uncle Zheng should go their separate ways, go out of the city first, so as not to be recognized, I will go to find Uncle Wang, if we haven't come out to meet you before sunset, you will go back to Liuzhou first." ”
"Huh? Miss, how can this be done? Why don't we go with you and find out? Uncle Liu proposed.
"No, it's not good to find someone because there are too many people, I'll go and come back quickly."
"This, well, then miss, you are alone." Uncle Liu looked back a few times uneasily, but Yang Jing turned around and looked for the street where Uncle Zheng sold porridge.
Because of the drought, only the children of some large families are walking around on the streets, and they don't have to worry about food.
"Eh, hello girl, excuse me, have you seen such a tall old man, his clothes are blue." As she spoke, the group walked past her, and she lowered her head and lowered her voice. "Ah, thank you."
Jiang Qiubai's arrival made the whole street suddenly crowded, and she was squeezed to the side of the street.
Suddenly, the person in front of him turned around as if he had some premonition.
Yang Jing squatted down and patted the dust on the tips of her shoes.
At the same time, Chen Yu, who was standing beside Jiang Qiubai, asked with concern, "Fourth brother, what are you looking at?" ”
Jiang Qiubai retracted his gaze, turned around and turned around again in less than a second, just in time to meet Yang Jing who got up.
It's really a narrow road, and you can see him everywhere.
Yang Jing didn't turn back into the next street, and continued to look for people one by one.
I searched for a whole afternoon, but I still didn't find Uncle Wang.
Until passing by a thatched house, Yang Jing stopped and unconsciously looked into the half-open door.
"Uncle Wang!"
"Miss, you, why are you here?"
Yang Jing pushed the door in, and as soon as her eyes touched the people in the thatched house, she was stunned and didn't dare to go again.
Dozens of people were squatting in the thatched hut, squeezing the thatched hut, which was not too large, to the point that there was no place to stay.
Uncle Wang stood in the middle of the group, holding a pig's girdle in his hand.
"Uncle Wang, what are you doing here?" She asked.
Uncle Wang was stunned for a moment, handed the pig belly in his hand to the little girl who was staring at him at his feet, and walked towards her.
"Miss, I'm sorry ......"
Yang Jing's gaze fell on the discarded pigslin behind the door, "Why?" ”
"I, my hometown is Huaiyin......" Uncle Wang said and lowered his head, "They are so pitiful, Miss." ”
"So you secretly sold my gruel behind my back to these people?"
Perhaps it was because of her words and tone that the eyes of the people in the room widened one by one, and they looked at her unkindly.
Yang Jing was very angry, she felt that Old Man Wang was premeditated, at least before he came, he had never mentioned to her that he was from Huaiyin.
But she just couldn't get angry.
Such a large room of people looked at her one by one, each with dirty faces, but their eyes full of hope and anger.
Sighing, Yang Jing pulled Uncle Wang out of the door.
"Grandpa." A little girl nervously followed out the door.
Yang Jing smiled at the little girl, trying her best to make her voice less harsh, "Uncle Wang, no matter how much you lose me by doing this, just take something like today, how many people in Huaiyin County can't eat?" If you can save them for a day, can you still deliver porridge and food for them every day? ”
Uncle Wang was silent.
"I don't have anything to do with you about selling porridge, now a few of us are going to return to Liuzhou before dark, do you leave or not?"
At that time, she saw that Uncle Wang was too old and was worried that he would not be physically strong, so she only gave him 10 bags of pigs, or she didn't know how much she would lose at this time.
But the loss is not counted, it is regarded as a good deed every day.
