222 hoarding firewood

As for eating and drinking, he and his father went into the mountains to collect firewood, and from time to time they could find something in the mountains.

Coupled with the money earned from firewood, and the subsidy given by my sister, it may not be possible to survive.

Hearing this, Wang Xiaomei was relieved.

"In terms of food, don't worry. I'm here - I've stocked up on about 800 pounds of brown rice noodles. If you and Dad save a little, it should be enough to eat for a while. Again.

She just bought 550 catties of brown rice noodles with her sister-in-law, plus the ones she had hoarded one after another, and she had 800 catties.

Wang Dashan was shocked.

"W-so much?" Some are unbelievable.

Wang Xiaomei nodded.

"But keep this a secret for now. Don't tell Dad just yet. ”

"When you move to town, come to me and move the grain."

Wang Dashan thought for a moment and nodded.

"Okay."

Immediately, his face was a little speechless and stopped.

"What's wrong? If the eldest brother has something to say, he might as well say it directly. Wang Xiaomei laughed.

"Your grainβ€”" Wang Dashan asked.

Wang Xiaomei's eyes fluctuated.

"Oh. Stockpiled before. ”

"Before, my sister-in-law said that food prices could rise. After making money, I exchanged it for food and hoarded it. Wang Xiaomei pretended to be relaxed.

"It's also fortunate that I did that, otherwise, you and your father will have to suffer next."

"It's all changed to food?!" Wang Dashan was shocked.

Wang Xiaomei was stunned.

Then he nodded.

"Hmm."

"Therefore, you can only pay for the rent yourself."

"We should have paid for the rent!" Wang Dashan said immediately.

"How much did you spend on those grains?!" He asked anxiously.

Wang Xiaomei's eyes moved.

"Not much." Answered.

"Oh, don't ask these big brothers."

"At this juncture, food is more important than money."

"The money is gone, let's continue to earn it later. As long as people live and don't let their hands sit idle, they can earn money sooner or later. ”

Wang Dashan was silent.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaomei smiled again.

"By the way, you can hurry up about renting a house. It is best to confirm it within 10 days. ”

Before, her sister-in-law asked her to take away the food within half a month.

If the eldest brother and father don't come to get food, she can only put it in her house.

When the time comes, I'm afraid it will take up a lot of space.

In her opinion, it doesn't matter whether the people in Xiashui Village can escape or not.

It will be more cost-effective for the eldest brother and father to live in the town.

After all, the rent is only 100 yuan a month, but it can save the two of them time on the road.

If you save all this time, you may be able to get an extra cart of firewood.

Before Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu bought a yard, they still wanted to go back to Xiashui Village to live.

But as a result, after coming to town, I didn't even think about going back.

Although I also complained, saying that there are many places to spend money in the town, and this also has to be bought with money, and that has to be bought with money.

But I also like the cleanliness and convenience of the town, and I actually like the current life.

A hint of hesitation flashed on Wang Dashan's face.

After his sister looked at it, he nodded.

"When I go back, I'll find time to discuss with my father." Opening.

said that it was a discussion, and he was basically sure that his father would be willing.

Even, as soon as he mentioned it, he must have been eager to move immediately.

After all, the old man often chattered in front of him, envious of the Song family and the Liu family.

Thinking of this, Wang Dashan sighed in his heart.

Or he's useless, if it weren't for his sister to make these arrangements.

Next, he really didn't know what to do.

The brother and sister talked for a while, and at this time, Qin Xiaoyao came over.

"Sister-in-law!" The two of them greeted Qin Xiaoyao one after another.

Qin Xiaoyao smiled and nodded.

"The mountains." looked at Wang Dashan.

"Huh, sister-in-law!" Wang Dashan hurriedly responded.

"How many of the eighty-five loads of firewood I ordered before?" Qin Xiaoyao asked.

Wang Dashan was stunned.

The brain went over for a moment.

"Counting today, there are forty-six loads. I owe you thirty-nine loads. He said.

Qin Xiaoyao nodded.

"I heard that Chai He has increased in price now?" Asked again.

Wang Dashan was stunned again.

Then a smile appeared on his face.

"It's a little bit up. But it doesn't affect the ones you set before. I'll give you the remaining thirty-nine loads of firewood! He said.

The Song family treated his sister well, and let his sister make so much money, he accepted this love in his heart.

When Wang Xiaomei heard this, she also nodded. Obviously agrees with his brother's words.

Qin Xiaoyao smiled.

"The entrance fee to the city has risen, and you have lost a lot according to the original price."

"In this way, I will add two yuan to you for each load of firewood, which can be regarded as helping you subsidize some entry fees into the city."

"But then you have to give priority to my family's firewood. Within a month, all the thirty-nine loads of firewood owed to me were delivered. ”

Seeing Wang Dashan's surprised expression, Qin Xiaoyao smiled and said, "My firewood room is not full yet." ”

"In addition, in the utility room, you can also pile some firewood into it."

In the utility room at home, there are a lot of things in the attic, and you have to do something to cover up.

In addition, it is also good to stock up on more firewood at home now.

According to Xianggong, after a while, Lingquan Town will be closed.

Then, wait until the war happens, and the gates will be opened again.

"Done!" Wang Dashan quickly responded.

Qin Xiaoyao left at this time.

Then, the Wang brothers and sisters chatted for a while before Wang Dashan left.

This trip to the town, after listening to his sister's words, Wang Dashan's heart has become a lot more steady.

After returning home, he was not idle, and continued to deliver firewood to the town.

After sending the second trip to firewood, I went home.

At home, Wang Laozhuan is also there.

A pot of porridge was cooked, and the side dishes were pickles and dried locusts.

Mainly these days they only eat locusts, and he really feels a little unbearable.

Seeing his son come back, Wang Laozhuan hurriedly asked about Wang Dashan and the situation in the town.

I learned that the girl's side is very good, and the price of firewood in the town has risen.

On the old face of Wang Laoshuan, a smile immediately rose.

"Since you've made money, why didn't you buy some food back?" Soon, Wang Laozhuan asked again.

Wang Dashan glanced at his father.

"The price of firewood has risen, but the price of grain has risen even more."

"In addition, everything that is related to food has risen a lot."

Wang Lao Xuan frowned.

"What is the price of brown rice and brown noodles now?" Hurriedly asked.

"Twenty-two texts." Wang Dashan sighed and responded.

"What?" Wang Lao's eyes widened, thinking that he had misheard.

"You heard it right, now the price of brown rice noodles has risen to 22 wen a catty."

"And it's a limited supply. If you line up, you can only buy five catties per person at a time. If it's too late, you won't be able to buy it! ”

Fortunately, the little sister stocked up on food in advance, otherwise, he wouldn't know what to do next.

"What then? Let's justβ€”" As he spoke, Wang Lao looked in the direction of the kitchen at home in a panic.

"But there are only a dozen catties of food."
