Chapter 183: The Grain Shop

Li Yue was about to go to her grandmother's house, when she heard her uncle sitting in the courtyard say, "Your grandmother is sleeping now, you can go see her later." ”

Listening to her uncle's words, Li Yue had to stop, and sat down on the edge of the stone table on her uncle's side, and Li Yun also came over and sat down beside Li Yue.

At this time, the people in the house heard the movement and came out, Li Lan and Wu came out of the kitchen, and saw that it was Li Yun and Li Yue, Li Lan had already jumped over happily, "Brother, sister-in-law, you are here." ”

Then Wu hurriedly went into the house again and poured tea for the two.

Li Yue looked at Li Lan, who was happy, and responded with a smile, "Let's come back to see grandma." ”

On the side, Li Qiang asked, "Is business good in the county?" ”

Li Yue responded, "It's pretty good, I heard that Uncle sold the shop in the town?" ”

Li Qiang nodded and responded, "Business has been bad, and people have to watch it all the time, so I just sold it." ”

Li Yue continued to ask, "What are your plans for the future?" ”

Li Qiang sighed, "Just take back the rented land and plant it yourself, what else can you plan, you are now older, you have your own plans, and you don't have to worry about me." ”

Li Yun, who had been silent, suddenly said at this time, "Why don't you go to the county town to open a grain store." ”

Listening to Li Yun's words, Li Qiang opened his mouth with some uncertainty, "Open a grain shop again?" ”

Li Yue's eyes lit up when she heard Li Yun's words, and she hurriedly answered, "Yes, it's good to open a grain shop, the previous grain turmoil, but many grain merchants went bankrupt, and many people don't want to get involved in grain even if they want to do business again, this is a good opportunity for us." ”

Li Qiang listened to Li Yue's words, and sighed lightly, "Where is it so easy, it's very difficult to get grain now, the boss Yu who went to the county seat to buy his grain, Yue'er should still remember, right?" He also thought about continuing to open a grain shop, but now he can't buy the goods, the Hongji granary with grain, although the price is down now, but people say that in order to prevent the last thing from happening, no matter who it is, a large amount of grain is not sold, and there is a limit on the sale of grain, and there is no more than one stone at a time. ”

Li Yun and Li Yue listened to Li Qiang's words, and they couldn't help but fall into deep thought, they (they) didn't think that this Hongji granary was to prevent another grain turmoil, after all, the two of them knew very well, the last grain turmoil was the mastermind behind the Hongji granary, and now they suddenly said that it was to prevent another grain storm and not sell grain, how could it be possible, the two of them instantly thought together, this Hongji granary is not to prevent food turmoil, but they don't want to sell grain at all, they want to hoard grain and transport it to the customs.

Li Yun's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Uncle, let's go to the county town to open a grain shop, don't worry, I will handle the purchase of grain." ”

Li Qiang looked at Li Yun uncertainly, "You're coming?" ”

Li Yun nodded again with certainty.

I heard Li Yue say, "We rented a small yard in the county, if my uncle thinks about it and is willing to go to the county seat, we can take my grandmother to the county seat together, we have more time in the county, we live together, and we also have a care." ”

Li Qiang listened to Li Yue's words and said, "I originally thought that I would let you move back, and the houses in the backyard will be left for you." ”

Li Yue didn't want to move around anymore, she actually still liked to live in the mountains, and besides, her mother and younger brother also lived in the mountains, so he was more relieved to live in the mountains.

Li Yun probably understood Li Yue's thoughts, although Li Yue didn't speak, Li Yun had already spoken, "We won't move, it's troublesome to move around, and it is estimated that most of them will live in the county seat in the future, uncle will go to the county seat when he is free, and then decide to come down earlier, let's take grandma to the county seat, we are often in the county seat, and we also have a care." ”

Li Yun because of his leg disease, most of the people at home don't take care of things, and he won't make ideas like this, this is the first time to make such a strong decision, Li Qiang feels that Li Yun is now a little more humane, and he is reluctant to refuse Li Yun, so he nodded.

Seeing that Li Qiang nodded, Li Yue changed the topic and asked, "How is your health lately?" ”

Li Qiang, who listened to it, said, "As usual, after taking the medicine prescribed by Dr. Nalin, my spirit is better than at the beginning." ”

At this time, the Wu family made tea and brought it out, and soon went to work again, Li Yue didn't see Wu Wei since he came back, so he asked curiously, "Where did Wu Wu go?" ”

Li Qiang, who listened to it, said, "Our shop is gone, and we don't need so many people, so I found him a job in the town." ”

Listening to Li Qiang's words, Li Yun said, "Let him come back, if you go to the county seat to open a shop, you will definitely need people." ”

Li Qiang nodded in response, "Okay." ”

Li Yue on the side got up and called Li Landao, "Let's go see grandma." ”

The two stayed in Dalu Village, and did not go back to Waishan Village until the evening, and on the way back, Li Yue walked beside Li Yun, who was leading the horse, and asked curiously, "Do you really want Uncle to go to the county town to open a grain store?" This Hongji granary will definitely not be willing to sell grain, if you can't buy grain, how can you open it? ”

Listening to Li Yue's words, Li Yun responded softly, "Have you forgotten my relationship with Yan Jiu?" Now you have pierced the background of the Hongji granary in front of Qi Pengfei, if I go to the Hongji granary to buy grain, do you think he will sell it or not? ”

Li Yue's eyes lit up when she heard Li Yun's words, "Of course it will be sold, he will definitely not act with you at this juncture to attract Yan Jiu's attention, thus affecting their plan to transport grain outside, it turns out that you have already thought about it, it is really insidious." ”

The two went to the uncle's house again, and asked the uncle to go to the village tomorrow morning to find a few short-term workers, and then call Uncle Liu's ox cart in the village, cut down some trees tomorrow morning, and take them to the county seat tomorrow afternoon.

When the two of them went back to the mountain, it was already dark, Xu Jinniang saw the two coming back, hurriedly greeted them, looked the two up and down, and then asked Li Yun worriedly, "You hurriedly called Zhou Gongzi away that night, but something happened." ”

Li Yue hurriedly responded, "What's the matter, it's okay, mother, we haven't had dinner yet, I'm so hungry." ”

Xu Jinniang originally wanted to continue to ask what the situation was that night, why did she call Zhou Gongzi to the county seat in a panic in the middle of the night, but Li Yue was so coquettish and shouted that she was hungry, so she changed the topic, and did not continue to ask, but said while going to the stove, "Wait, I'll cook for you." ”

Li Yue didn't see her younger brother Xiaoyang and Lin Xiao in the room here, and when she saw the lights on in Lin Xiao's laboratory, she knew that the two of them must be over there.

Li Yue didn't bother to come over, so she stood at the door and shouted, "Xiaoyang, my sister is back." ”

Xiao Bai, who didn't want to sleep in the house, was faster than Xiao Yang, and he burst out as soon as he slipped through the smoke, rubbing his head on Li Yue's waist like a coquette.

Li Yue touched Xiaobai's head with a smile and said, "Why didn't you go out into the wild today?" ”

Xu Jinniang, who was busy behind the stove, replied for Xiaobai, "I've been very lazy these days, I don't like to go out, I nest at home every day, and I have blind meat at home, which goes into its mouth." ”

Li Yue listened to her mother's words, rubbed Xiaobai vigorously with her hand, and said, "So lazy? Come with me up to the mountains tomorrow morning to hunt. ”

At this time, Lin Xiao came over with Xiaoyang in his arms, Xiaoyang called "sister" and threw herself into Li Yue's arms, Lin Xiao looked Li Yue up and down, "Is there something wrong?" Do you want me to take your pulse? ”

Li Yuesheng was afraid that Lin Xiao would know the truth and make her mother worry if she leaked her mouth, so she glared at Lin Xiao and said, "What can I do?" Then he hurriedly changed the subject, "What are you two doing in the room over there?" ”

Lin Xiao, who listened to it, said, "Teach Xiaoyang to recognize herbs." ”

Xiao Yang in Li Yue's arms, listening to Lin Xiao's words, with a little arrogance on his round face, opened his mouth to show off to Li Yue, "Sister, Xiao Yang has known a lot of herbs, and he went out to pick herbs with Brother Lin and came back." ”

Seeing that her younger brother was so cute, Li Yue kissed Xiaoyang on the face and praised, "Our Xiaoyang is really capable, go to your brother-in-law." ”

Li Yun was sitting in front of the stove to help Xu Jinniang light the fire, Xiaoyang obediently got off Li Yue's body and went to Li Yun's side.

Li Yue said to Lin Xiao next to Li, "Let's go to the laboratory and have a look." ”

Xu Jinniang watched Li Yue go out with Lin Xiao and went to the laboratory over there, and was about to say that Li Yue didn't know how to avoid suspicion, but because Li Yun was present, but she didn't say it, Xu Jinniang turned her head and looked at Li Yun who was burning the fire in front of the stove worriedly, but she saw Li Yun teasing Xiaoyang who was nesting in his arms and talking, and there was nothing unusual, so she breathed a sigh of relief, but she thought in her heart, "I have to find a time to talk about Li Yue, I don't know how to avoid suspicion at all, how can I stay alone with other men." ”

Li Yue asked Lin Xiao to come over, but Li Yun knew that there was something serious, and when he arrived at the laboratory, Li Yue said, "Help me get a little colorless and odorless*, as well as smoke." ”

Lin Xiao looked at Li Yue and asked curiously, "Then what do you want that thing to do?" ”

Li Yue only said, "I have my own use, and it is best to have a stronger medicine, so that it will not be discovered, at least it must be able to stun a master like you for one night, and it will not be found to be hit*." ”

Lin Xiao listened to Li Yue's big requests and said, "It may take some time." "Although he is a poison doctor, he is more willing to study medical skills to save people, so * or something, there is nothing in his pile of bottles and cans, and he has to make it fresh, Li Yue has a lot of requirements, and it will definitely take time.

Li Yue was not in a hurry, "You do it slowly, and give it to me when it's done." ”

Lin Xiao nodded, "Okay, by the way, didn't you say that you want to open a medical center?" When will it be opened? ”

Li Yue thought for a while before responding, "After a while, this time may not work, I still have some things to do, and now I am still a little short of silver." ”

Lin Xiao nodded, the two chatted a few more words, and then went to the house over there.

Xu Jinniang had already cooked noodles for the two of them and brought them to the table, "Aren't you hungry?" The noodles are made quickly, let's eat some, Xiaoyang, don't lie in my brother-in-law's arms, let my brother-in-law eat first. ”

After dinner, Li Yue told her mother about the situation of the third uncle in the county seat, and by the way, she told her mother and Lin Xiao that she had rented a yard in the county seat, and asked them (they) whether to go to the county seat with them or stay here.

Lin Xiao shook his head directly after hearing this, he didn't want to go to any county seat, there was no laboratory there, and he didn't want Xu Jinniang and Xiaoyang to go to the county seat, he had long been accustomed to Xu Jinniang Xiaoyang and their family-like existence, if they were all gone, he seemed to have returned to his previous days in the Valley of the Immortals, and he didn't have a donkey to accompany him.

But Lin Xiao couldn't make decisions for them, and when she heard Xu Jinniang say, "We won't go", Lin Xiao's heart finally let go.

Li Yue was not reluctant, she and Li Yun still had something to do, so let her mother stay here, so as not to worry about her mother.

After chatting for a while, they all washed up and went back to the house to rest.

I got up early the next morning, had breakfast early, Li Yue planned to take Xiaobai up the mountain to take a walk, Li Yun also had to go down the mountain to greet the short-term workers invited by the uncle to cut down trees, and I didn't have time to go up the mountain with Li Yue, so I had to repeatedly tell Li Yue to be careful and not to go deep into the mountains.

Li Yue listened obediently, but she didn't care in her heart, she was measured, and she wouldn't take her life seriously.

Boss Ming found three or four short-term workers, plus himself, as well as Li Yun and Lin Xiao, six or seven people, cut down the tree in the morning, and then in the afternoon, Li Yun and Li Yue rode a horse, and Lao Liu Tou drove a cart and pulled a cart of wood, and took Boss Ming, and the group went to the county seat.

A large oxcart of wood, walking very slowly, Li Yun and Li Yue had to let the horse slow down, follow the ox cart, walk and rest, when they arrived at the county seat, it was already evening.

A few people went to the barbecue restaurant first, and there were already guests coming to the door one after another, Liu Shi looked at a few people coming over and greeted, "It's coming so soon, what are you pulling a cart again?" ”

Li Yue responded, "Wood." ”

Mingyao asked curiously, "What are you doing with so much wood?" ”

Li Yue said with a smile, "Isn't there a wall in the courtyard we rented next to the prison?" Let's make some wooden thorn saddles and put them down on the courtyard wall, and dig some traps to bury wooden thorns, I see if the prisoners in that prison dare to run over the wall to our side. ”

Liu Shi listened to Li Yue's words, nodded and replied, "This is a good idea, this is not busy here, Ah Yao, you go back to help unload the wood." ”

After that, Li Yue took the key, and the group went directly to the newly rented house.
