157 The price of grain has risen again
After drinking two large cups of tea in a row, Qin Xiaoyao felt more comfortable.
Song Que was amused and chuckled.
Seeing Qin Xiaoyao looking over, he put away his smile.
"Father-in-law's family, what's going on?" Asked.
In his previous life, he had little contact with the Qin family, so he naturally didn't know about the Zhang family and the Zhang family.
But knowing that there are gamblers in the Zhang family, the Zhang family is not a good thing.
Therefore, after Qin Xiaoyao left, he had been a little worried.
So much so that he didn't fall asleep in bed before.
Later, I got up and practiced calligraphy.
I've been waiting for a long time, but fortunately, this woman is back.
"All the best!" Qin smiled freely.
Then, he told Song Que what happened to the Qin family and the arrangements after that.
"It's a good thing that my sister-in-law is willing to raise that child, and it also takes care of her and her eldest brother." After listening to this, Song Que said.
Qin Xiaoyao nodded.
"You don't know how happy my sister-in-law is for this. Later, he held my hand and thanked me! With some excitement.
Song Que laughed.
"It seems that you have gained a lot from returning to your parents' house this time."
"Of course!"
"Now the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law don't hold a grudge against me. The eldest brother, the second brother and the father all believe in me! ”
Song Que smiled again. found that I liked to see Qin Xiaoyao's self-satisfied appearance.
"That's fine."
Qin Xiaoyao smiled and turned back, "By the way, if I tell you something, I'm afraid you won't believe it." ”
"What?" Song Que's eyes flashed with interest.
"Our father, I originally planned to stock up on grain." Qin Xiao looked at Song Que Dao.
Song Que was stunned, and he was really surprised.
Then, Qin Xiaoyao told her father about it.
"Dad's money was all lost by the Zhang family. In the end, it was the eldest brother and the second brother who contributed money to stock up on food together. Each family is 400 catties, adding up to a total of 800 catties. ”
After speaking, Qin Xiaoyao looked at Song Que again.
"I figured if they weren't enough. Our family can help some when the time comes. ”
"By the way, in your prophecy, how long will the famine in our Lingquan Town take next? Do we want to stock up on some food? ”
Song Que was slightly silent.
"The disaster is quite serious, and I am afraid that it is not lighter than the drought that my father-in-law experienced 25 years ago."
"Since Lingquan Town at that time, it took almost three years to barely get better. This time, the situation should be similar. ”
In his previous life, not long after the winter, he followed the emperor.
In addition, later, I didn't pay attention to the situation in Lingquan Town, so I naturally didn't know it so clearly.
But at that time, the entire city of Hua'an, and even the surrounding area, were suffering from drought.
It took a lot of time for the imperial court to provide disaster relief and resettle displaced people.
It seems that in the following year, the imperial court was still delegating the silver taels for disaster relief.
Seeing Qin Xiaoyao frowning, Song Que said again: "You don't have to worry too much, our Lingquan Town is the largest town in Zhao County." On the traffic fortress of Hua'an Mansion, there are many merchants coming and going. ”
"There is a famine in Hua'an Province, even if the towns will be short of food for a short time. But once the merchants come in, the grain will also arrive soon. ”
"If we live in the city, we will be more secure. As soon as the winter is over, after the snow melts, the grain stores in the city reopen, and no one should starve to death. However, food prices may not come down in the short term. ”
When the time comes, it's time for each family to fight for their money.
Qin Xiaoyao nodded.
"Three years...... It's been too long......"
"I'll count the money at home later, and see if I'll stock up on some food." Anyway, after the price of food rises, you can make money by turning it over. Qin Xiaoyao said.
It's good to have a prophet in your family. She is not afraid to make this kind of investment.
"Hmm." Song Que did not object.
It's good to buy more food.
The two chatted for a while before Qin Xiaoyao went to take out the three money boxes at home.
As a result, when the money was counted, only fifteen taels of silver were counted.
There are a lot of copper plates left, and there are two large boxes in them.
Looking at the copper coins scattered together, Qin Xiaoyao glanced at Song Que and directly arranged the work of counting copper coins to him.
"I've got to wrap the eggs, and I'll count the copper coins. A hundred of them were dressed in a string, and later I took some to the grain store to buy grain. "I also have to go to the bank and exchange them for silver.
Song Que raised his head and glanced at Qin Xiaoyao.
"Hmm." And it did.
Qin Xiaoyao smiled.
"Come on, Xianggong!" He gave a word of encouragement before heading out.
It wasn't until the women had left for a while that the crisp laughter of the women in Song Que's mind disappeared.
couldn't help but shake his head, dissipating the emotions in his mind, and Song Que began to count and dispose of the copper coins.
After Qin Xiaoyao walked out of the room, he went to prepare preserved eggs.
As a result, the mud of the preserved eggs was not ready, and Liu came to the alley.
At this time, Song Yun, Wang Xiaomei, and the little doll Song Ye were also there.
"Girl, how have you handled the affairs of the Qin family? Is there a place where you need our help? Liu asked with concern.
The in-laws used to be very helpful to their family, but now that it is their turn to have an accident, they must help if they can.
"It's okay, it's all taken care of." Qin Xiaoyao smiled and replied.
Then I told my mother-in-law about the general situation.
When he heard that the Zhang family had been divorced, and the child would be brought back to the Qin family's big house in the future, the Liu family breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good. There is one less demon, and the family will be more harmonious in the future. Then, with a sigh, he said.
"You should also persuade your father. Look at everything. Thinking of something, the Liu family said to Qin again.
Qin Xiaoyao was amused.
"Got it, mother."
Seeing that Qin Xiaoyao could still laugh, the Liu family was finally relieved.
comforted Qin Xiaoyao a few more words, and then went back to the room to continue embroidery.
Qin Xiaoyao smiled and continued to wrap his preserved eggs.
After the preserved eggs were wrapped, Qin Xiaoyao only rested for a while before returning to the room.
Then I didn't know what I talked to Song Que about, and laughter came out of the room from time to time.
After about half an hour, Qin Xiaoyao went out with a money box.
After that, I went to the utility room to push the cart.
Seeing this, Song Yun asked her sister-in-law what she was doing.
Qin Xiaoyao only left a sentence to go shopping, and left.
Out of the yard, Qin Xiaoyao was familiar with the way, and went to the grain store where he bought grain before.
At this time, there were no customers in the store, and when the guy saw his "big customer" come to the door, his face was as happy as if it was blooming.
"Qin Niangzi!" Excitedly shouted at Qin Xiaoyao.
Qin Xiaoyao smiled back.
"I'm looking for you again, little brother. This time, in addition to brown rice and brown noodles, I also want to buy some soybeans. ”
"What are the prices in your store now?"
Speaking of this, Qin Xiaoyao stepped forward a little further and whispered: "The old rule, give a sincere price." ”
The guy laughed.
"What is given to Qin Niangzi is a real price."
"However, the price of food has risen recently, and the shopkeeper said that he will not let the price be reduced."
Qin Xiaoyao's brows were furrowed.
"But Mrs. Qin has been taking care of the business of our store, where can she be the same as others." The guy smiled cutely and lowered his voice.
