Chapter 103: Worrying about food

readx;

After Xu Yang and his entourage left Ezhou City, they saw more and more people in an endless stream of victims, and they all went south, so that Yin Su'e and Lian Gui saw this scene, and burst into tears, and couldn't help but think of their own experiences, and thus remembered whether their relatives in their hometown were safe and sound.

Xu Yang heard the two women in the carport crying, and while driving the carriage forward, he turned back and said: "If you want to go back to your hometown to have a look, then when we enter Ganxiao County, we will turn to your hometown to have a look." Anyway, we still have plenty of time to arrive in Longjing, and there is nothing to delay on the road for these few days. As he spoke, Ma Zichen and the others beside him also nodded in unison, looking towards Xu Yang's carriage.

Yin Su'e, who was in the carriage, heard Xu Yang's voice coming from outside, immediately tried to dry her tears, opened the curtain, and said in a playful voice: "How can you delay everyone's trip because of my own selfish desires? Besides, since I left my hometown, I don't want to go back to that sad and sad place." I don't have any relatives in my hometown anymore, and I don't have anything to see when I go back, so it's better not to pass through here. As he spoke, tears rained down, and he returned to the carport sadly.

"Good sister, if you don't go back, you won't go back. Liu Xiangping comforted.

When everyone heard that Yin Su'e didn't want to go back to the sad place, they no longer dissuaded her. Lian Gui saw that Yin Su'e was no longer sad and sad, so he couldn't help but follow the rain and the sunny sky, gently pushed the other party, and whispered: "Sister, you slept with Brother Xu at night, did you do that?"

"What nonsense are you talking about, you damn girl. I think you just want to be in a hurry to talk to Ma Zichen, that nerd, so you always ask your sister questions. See that I don't tear your mouth apart, so that you are always unobtrusive and talking nonsense. Yin Su'e reached out and twisted Lian Gui's cheek and whispered.

Lian Gui shook his head, opened Yin Su'e's hand with his hand, tickled the other party's armpit, and asked in a low voice: "Sister, when you are with Brother Xu, will it hurt a lot?" I have heard others say that when you have a cave with a man, it will hurt very much below. But when I see my sister, how can I be like no one, could it be that the rumors are all false?" said this, dodging Yin Su'e's hand again and again.

"Good sister, don't ask questions. When you and Ma Zichen live in the cave in the future, you will naturally understand, and I promise that you will love and hate it when the time comes. There are all kinds of wonderful tastes that cannot be expressed in words, and only by experiencing them can we understand what it tastes like. Liu Xiangping whispered.

Yin Su'e heard that Liu Xiangping actually told Lian Gui about the shame in the room without concealment, and also said that the head was the way, as if the other party had experienced it. Yin Su'e threw away Lian Gui, lifted Liu Xiangping's skirt, and whispered: "Sister, how can you say that you are so experienced? Tell me honestly, how many times have you been with your husband?"

Lian Gui also grabbed Liu Xiangping's skirt and begged the other party to explain how many times he had secretly done it with Xu Yang.

Liu Xiangping saw that the two girls were pestering herself, so she made the two girls let go, and whispered to the two girls: "I'll tell you the truth, I haven't returned my husband's mile." What I just said is actually deceiving Sister Liangui. We all told our husbands that as long as we visit the church and get married, we can do that. You're still young, so naturally you don't know the secrets between adults. ā€

"Who said we were younger, sister, you are only ten years older than us, and you actually told the shame in the room that you were the truth, as if you had done it with your husband. I don't think so, you haven't had that with your husband either!When you've got past your husband, come back to bragging!" Yin Su'e complained.

Even Gui didn't expect that Xu Yang and the two girls lived together all day, and they had never been in a cave room, and the answers they longed for were also in vain, and they felt a little disappointed in their hearts.

Liu Xiangping saw Lian Gui pulling his head, his face seemed to be very disappointed, and he immediately scratched the itch at the other party, and said with a smile: "Don't you often stay with Ma Zichen?

"That nerd only knows how to read books day and night, so he still has the heart to care about my feelings! Besides, Brother Ma said that his mother had just died, and he also said that I was too young and asked me to wait three years before I could pass the door. I also understand the other party's feelings, so I have never used my sister's method. Lian Gui said.

Yin Su'e also understands that Ma Zichen's top priority now is to pay tribute to high school, so that he can seal his wife and son, and change the living conditions of the family. Liu Xiangping also saw that Lian Gui's age was indeed too young, and if he was in a hurry to give birth to a child, he was afraid that it would cause damage to his body and bones, and he also felt that Ma Zichen had done it right.

The three daughters laughed in the carriage and told the trivial matters in the boudoir, causing the people around them to laugh.

Xu Yang and his entourage walked unhurriedly towards the north for two days, during which Yin Su'e also said that his hometown was in the west of Ganxiao County, but he refused to let everyone go around from the west. Therefore, everyone had to bypass Ganxiao County from a rugged mountain road in the east and continue to walk towards the north. In the two days that everyone walked, there was also some drizzle from time to time, but it did not hinder everyone's journey in the slightest.

In the meantime, Xu Yang also asked the big tiger and the little tiger to buy some dry food in the city of Ganxiao, but after the two came back, he complained and wrote: "The price of grain in the city of Ganxiao County has doubled compared with the price in Xianning, and it takes five taels of silver to buy a stone of rice, and it is still sold in limited quantities every day, and now the people who do business no longer accept copper coins, which is really hateful." If it weren't for our brother who went into the city to buy rice earlier, we would have to go home empty-handed by now. These profiteers really deserve to die, isn't this a blatant deliberate attempt to raise prices and force grain to rise!"

Xu Yang and the others heard that the price of rice had risen so fast, and it had only been half a month since they left Xianning, so they didn't think that the price of grain had more than doubled, and they immediately regretted not buying more grain in Xianning City.

Liu Xiangping saw that the grain situation would only go up, and immediately proposed: "You see that these victims are all from Henan Province, presumably the disaster there is even more serious than that of Hubei Province, and the price of grain will definitely remain high, and it will definitely be even higher than here." In order to save money, we might as well buy more grain in the county town of Ganxiao, what do you think?"

"Lady, you are the richest of the eleven of us. And what you said is not unreasonable, then we will buy more food in Ganxiao County, so that we can prevent problems before they happen!" Xu Yang said. Ma Zichen and others also agreed with Xu Yang and Liu Xiangping's suggestion, and felt that there was no harm in buying more food.

Liu Xiangping saw that everyone agreed with his suggestion, got into the carport and counted the silver tickets in his hand, calculated that it would take a month for everyone to leave Yu Province, and immediately took out fifty taels of silver tickets and a bag of copper coins, gave them to Xu Yang, and said: "We only have a carriage and six horses, if we bring too many things, it is impossible to carry them conveniently." Then we'll just buy 10 stone rice. And this bag of copper coins, try to spend it as much as possible, so as not to have to worry about it with you. And if you want to go to the city to buy food, use chariots to carry it. As she spoke, the three girls jumped out of the carriage one after another, and took out all kinds of packages and other things from the carriage.

"Lady, you are so thoughtful. Xu Yang said with a smile. After speaking, he said to everyone: "The four masters and Ma Zichen will stay here, and I will take the big tiger and the little tiger into the city in a carriage to buy food." ā€

The four monks were supposed to follow them to the city to help, but they were rejected by Xu Yang on the grounds that the four monks should stay here to protect the three daughters and others. Therefore, the four monks, the three daughters and Ma Zichen stayed behind, and Xu Yang and Dahu Xiaohu rode in a carriage towards the city of Ganxiao County.

Xu Yang drove the carriage all the way to the city of Ganxiao County, during which he was stopped several times by begging people, and had no choice but to throw a handful of copper coins before he entered the city smoothly. Xu Yang pulled the carriage and searched for various grain stores along the street, while the big tiger and the little tiger led Xu Yang to the grain store he had bought earlier.

When the three of them arrived at the grain store, they saw that the door was full of people carrying cloth bags, scolding. Xu Yang and the three of them learned from the mouth of the crowd that the grain store had closed, and when they stood in the carriage and looked, they saw a wooden sign hanging at the door, which read, "The grain has been sold out."

Xu Yang saw that the grain in this grain store had been sold out, and it was still noon, so he suddenly became angry and scolded secretly: "I actually don't do business, this is obviously deliberately hiding the grain, so that it can be used to raise the price and make money." Xu Yang saw that this grain store was not open, so he hurriedly looked for other grain stores along the street.

When Xu Yang and the three of them searched along the street and found that all the grain stores were closed, and none of them were open, they couldn't help but be shocked. The three of them suddenly felt as if these grain stores had been discussed in advance, and said that they were closed, and they were all closed. Moreover, Xu Yang also begged the grain store to buy only ten stone rice, but was blasted out by Xiao Er, so angry that Xu Yang immediately beat Xiao Er violently, and then relieved his anger.

Therefore, Xu Yang and the three of them returned from Ganxiao County in vain, and returned to Ma Zichen and others with their heads together.

Ma Zichen and others, who were waiting for Xu Yang's three people, saw Xu Yang's carriage coming back, and ran happily one by one, but they found that the three of them were depressed, and when they opened the curtain of the carport, they saw that it was empty, and hurriedly asked why. Xu Yang then told everyone what he had seen and heard, and everyone was immediately startled and cursed again and again.

Liu Xiangping saw that it was now close to dusk, and it was impossible for the people who were doing business to close their doors at noon, and said: "It seems that the seriousness of the matter is even more serious than I expected. We don't care if there is food in the city, or if these grain sellers hide it, we just have to wait for tomorrow morning and then go and buy food. ā€

Everyone saw that the dry food they carried could only last for two days, and if they couldn't buy food in Ganxiao County, they were afraid that it would be even more difficult to buy it in Henan Province. Therefore, they stayed here and waited until tomorrow morning to go to the city to buy food. And they all ate well and rested to their own people.

In the dead of night, Xu Yang tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, always feeling that these grain merchants seemed to really hide the grain, so as to deliberately raise the price of grain and make huge profits from it, "If these grain merchants really hide the grain, I am afraid that tomorrow's grain price will be another price, and in the end, it will be the poor people who are unlucky." Xu Yang saw that everyone had fallen asleep, but the four monks were sitting there cross-legged.

Xu Yang turned over and bounced up, pretending to be relieved, and quickly left everyone, heading towards a place that everyone couldn't see. When Xu Yang came to a place that everyone couldn't see, he stomped his feet towards the ground and shouted, "Om Blue Pure Law Realm!" As soon as the voice fell, a yin wind suddenly rolled from the east, and it was the city god of Ganxiao County who came alone. Xu Yang was afraid that the Yin God would come too much and attract unnecessary numbness, so he only summoned the City God.

Seeing that it was Xu Yang's deity who summoned him, Lord Chenghuang hurriedly fell to the ground and shouted, "The little one is one step late, I hope the master will forgive me." I don't know what the old man commands?"

"Get up, I have something to ask you. Let me ask you, is there really no food to buy in Ganxiao County?" Xu Yang said.

Lord Chenghuang stood up and said respectfully: "Back to the master, there is still a lot of grain in the city, and the grain is piled up, so why not have any food to buy?"

"When I went to the city to buy grain, why did I see that all the grain stores were closed and put up signs that said 'The grain has been sold out'?

Lord Chenghuang said: "Back to the master, these are just grain merchants who want to make huge profits from it, and deliberately hoard grain and don't buy it, just to raise the price of grain. Nowadays, these grains are naturally placed in their respective granaries, piled up like mountains, and there has never been a shortage of grain and rice. ā€

"These damned profiteers are really doing all kinds of evil, and they have lost their conscience. It is really hateful to deliberately hoard grain in the granary to raise the price of grain, even though there is grain. Xu Yang said.

When Lord Chenghuang heard Xu Yang cursing the grain merchant, he also saw a reason, and said cautiously: "Originally, our Yin God should not interfere in the affairs of the Yang World, otherwise if the judge of the Yin World knows about it, he will be punished in all kinds. However, if the master needs food, the small ones can secretly carry a little of the grain, and it is not a big problem to give it to the master. As long as the grain carried is not very large, and the people in the yang world do not complain, we will not be punished. ā€

Xu Yang originally thought that he would wait for Ming'er to go to the city again, and it didn't matter if he bought some food as soon as possible, it was just to let himself lose some strength and money. But after hearing the words of the city god, when he was about to say yes, he suddenly thought about it, and felt that he only needed to spend fifty taels to do something, so why bother to mobilize the people for this, not to mention that it was extremely dangerous.
