Mama Rong sorted and arranged all the medicinal materials in the basket, and happily took the wild ginger away.

Yan Yu's gaze followed, and she found that she had dug a few pits at the edge of the vegetable garden and buried the wild ginger in them.

Natural preservation, great!

The two brothers and sisters took the young grass they had picked out to feed the sheep, and the three sheep came over slowly, bowing their heads and chewing.

The two hens clucked and walked here, one foot hung in the air, and only after a while did they gently put it down, and their little bean-like eyes did not know whether they were looking at people or sheep, and they tentatively chatted twice on the tender grass, and when they saw that there was no danger, they pecked a few more times.

One of the rams bleated and suddenly rushed towards them.

The two hens clucked and clucked, and the smoke ran and fell, leaving behind a hasty paw print, and a few chicken feathers falling from the fan.

The ram no longer bothered and continued to graze.

The two hens who had no memory clucked again in a blink of an eye, and Yan Yu couldn't stand it anymore.

Two small hands waved and blasted them away.

"Go over there, what are you running around here, go to the vegetable garden and peck at the insects!"

The two hens were swept around by her, and they went anywhere, but they didn't go to the vegetable garden......

Yan Xiangheng raised his forehead, if you pick up chickens like this, can they still lay eggs, and let them be able to do it.

"Xiao Er, didn't you just say something was wrong." Yan Xiangheng greeted her.

Yan Yu stopped competing with the chickens and ran over.

He didn't even take a breath, and said quickly: "Big brother, let's stock up on some grain now, there are so many victims in Guanzhou, all of them have to eat, there is only one season a year here, and there is not much left over after the grain tax and their own food, if they don't sell grain, or sell very little, how much will the price of grain drop?" Let's not wait, buy it now. ”

Yan Xiangheng thought seriously.

Regardless of whether you buy grain early or late, you have to bear the increase or decrease in prices.

Guanzhou has received so many victims and has so many mouths waiting to eat.

Food, will it not be enough?

Losing or earning is not so important compared to being hungry.

Buy it back now, and they will be more at peace in their hearts.

"I'll go and discuss this matter with the village elders." Yan Xiangheng said.

"Also, big brother, we will have eight bags of medicine tomorrow, why don't we send it to Huju City first, come back with some silver, and divide it among the families."

Yan Xiangheng said: "Then tomorrow I will go to Huju City for a trip." ”

"Dad bought a fishing net before, thinking about catching more fish from the river, but now he is not at home, big brother, you can ask the families in the village who will use the net, let's take some time out every day to go to the river to lay the net, okay?"

"yes, okay." Yan Xiangheng nodded, finished the food left for him in two bites, and ran out.

Village Chief Luo recently likes to sit on the big stone and weave baskets and mats with the old guys.

As soon as lunch was over, they all walked out of the house and gathered together.

Yan Xiangheng came early, and he had been leaning against the big stone for a while.

Seeing him here, Village Chief Luo took two quick steps and asked, "Brother Heng'er, is there something wrong?" ”

"Grandpa the village chief, there is something going on." Yan Xiangheng organized the language and said several things.

Before Village Chief Luo could speak, the real old Song Tou who was listening next to him shouted.

"Then you have to buy food early and come back to stock up, when the time comes, the silver is gone, you can earn it again, and if you don't have food, it's fatal!"

Village Chief Luo also nodded: "This is an important matter, I have to inquire about the surrounding towns when I go back, and we will organize people to buy them separately." ”

This is what Lao Cheng said.

Well thought out.

There are so many families in the village, that is, each family only buys a few catties, and they are not old or young when they get together, and they can't get in Yongning, so they can only buy from the grain stores in various towns.

With such a large amount of business, the grain stores in the town may not be able to eat it, and they may have to sit on the ground and start the price, so it is better to buy them separately, which is not so eye-catching.

As for what Yan Xiangheng said about going to the net and sending medicine to Huju.

A few old people didn't think that they could get some medicine money back, but they were just worried about Xiucaigong, and as soon as they heard about the eight bags of medicine, they immediately recruited people and said that they would send it as soon as possible.

After dinner, torches were lit at the big rock.

Village Chief Luo told him about buying grain, asked each family to report the number of grain they wanted to buy to Yan Xiangheng, and asked the big guy to wait for the mules and donkeys in the village more carefully.

By the way, I ordered a few typical examples of hard work and good performance recently, and a few people who saw that the house was about to be capped, and praised it emphatically.

Finally, the matter of mentioning the net fish was mentioned.

said very clearly, it was the Yan family's net, it couldn't be used in vain, and the catch was also divided into others, and he also said in an accentuated tone, if you really know how to get this, don't be embarrassed if you can't......

The big guy was tired for a day, and he should have rested, but he was disturbed by the village chief's talk about buying grain, and he was sleepy, and while almost everyone in the village was there, the crowd was crowded and talking.

The main thing is to ask other people's families how much they are going to buy, and then weigh their own.

Several original mountain people gathered around Uncle An.

"Uncle An, how much grain should we buy?"

Although everyone is now from the same village, and they all tacitly assume that Village Chief Luo is still the head of a village in this big village, but they can't change their habits for many years, especially those who are from mountain villages, and they trust Uncle An, who has watched them grow up since childhood.

Uncle An is a person who has a plan in his heart, except for killing mountain bandits, they are very active, and everything else follows the trend, and they don't make trouble if they don't get out, and when they arrive in Guanzhou, they honestly let Yan Xiucai arrange them.

On the day of the re-registration, this group of people who were born and grew up in the mountains did not know how excited they were, and they couldn't wait to shout a few times.

But at that time, they were still outside the city, so they could only hold back this excitement.

When I got here, I was busy all the time.

The mountain people sprinkled their joy on their land.

They are a little slow to build a house, but they are not bad at all when they open the land, and they are good at going into the mountains to find medicine.

When it comes to the work recorded in Cui Langzhong, all of them are in the first place.

Uncle An was a little hesitant.

People in the mountains have few opportunities to touch money.

The money they had received before was put in their pockets, and they were really reluctant to spend it.

It was the dead money in Yan Yu's mouth.

They originally had some left, plus the rations sent by the eldest lord, and it was okay to boil up and eat for a few months.

Besides, they have their backs to the mountains, which is the environment they are most familiar with.

One after another, some people caught hares and pheasants, as well as hedgehogs and squirrels, and people in the mountains could eat them without picking.

In addition, at this time of year, there are many wild vegetables that can be eaten in the mountains, and they have carefully collected them according to the habits they have developed over the years.

If you do the math, it doesn't seem like you need to buy food.

But......

They are not the same now.

He didn't live in the mountains, but he had land, and he built an adobe house under the mountain.

Do you want to live like you used to?

Do you also have to learn from others to make some changes?

Uncle An's face showed a little tangled.

The few people around him couldn't understand the change in his face.

"Buy!" He finally made up his mind.

"We will buy as much as the people next to us buy, and we will always have more money in our hands than those people, and we will buy as much as they want."

The 'people' in his mouth are the victims who were plagued by the mountain bandits before, and the 'people' got the least amount of money several times.

If they are willing to take it out and buy food.

Then you should buy this grain!

In the final analysis, they yearn for the life under the mountain, but they don't know how to live a good life, so they can only learn from others.

Uncle An let go of the words, and a few people went to walk around Yan Xiangheng,

Staring at the big guys remembers a few.

Yan Xiangheng was busy here.

Just one registration to buy grain, there are a total of about 100 households in the whole village, and he is stunned to feel that he is busy with 300 households.

As soon as the previous one was memorized, he turned his head and ran to change it.

The next look also changed.

I regretted it and begged him to wait a while and go back to discuss it with his family......

Mrs. Qi found Li Xuemei.

Asked her, "Big sister, how much grain are you going to buy?" Forget it? ”

Li Xuemei nodded and said, "The children calculate it themselves, I'll show you." ”

She pulled out a piece of paper, with large letters written on both sides, and even the blank areas were filled with many small words, and the smaller gaps were written in charcoal.

Li Xuemei read it to her, and it showed the amount of food that his family was preparing to save to survive this winter.

There are always a lot of fine rice noodles, coarse grains, coarse noodles, and various grains and beans.

Listen to the head of the lady Qi lost the lake.

There were so many samples that she couldn't remember.

"Big sister, is there a total number? You tell me the total. She took Li Xuemei's hand and whispered: "My mother has said it, we don't need to do that, we can buy five times the number of your family." ”

She whispered a little embarrassed, "I don't know if it's enough." ”

Li Xuemei was silent.

Tell her the total.

Mrs. Qi left happily.

After talking to the old lady of the Qi family for a while, I decided to be the last one to go and report secretly.

Although the village knows that the three men of her family can eat, but I don't know how much they can eat, it is better to hide one, as my mother said, hide their big stomach, but also hide our family's silver, it is not good for people to know so real.

This night, Yan Xiangheng didn't sleep well.

One is to see his father tomorrow, and the other is to have a headache for the number of food purchases reported by the village.

Before dawn on the second day, Mrs. Qi thought that there would be no one to report her own number.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I approached, I saw several people squatting in front of the Yan family's courtyard in the dark.

Boy!

This means that she is bold, and if she is timid, she is afraid that she will be scared to death.

"What are you doing here?" Mrs. Qi slowed down before recovering her voice.

"Qi everyone's? Why are you here? What about your family? ”

It was Hu Da who asked.

"Yesterday, I burned charcoal late, so I slept in the woods and haven't come back yet." Mrs. Qi said.

Hu Da nodded, a little envious of the fact that Qi Da and Yan Lao Er could get together to make charcoal.

The more I stay in Guanzhou, the more I know that this charcoal is good.

When it comes to winter, if you are willing to eat hard, this charcoal can still burn, and they will not be able to do it, and in winter, I am afraid that if you don't get up like Master Lu said, you won't be able to do any work.

"The number reported by my family yesterday, I went back and thought about it, it was a little less, and I thought about changing it again."

The reason why the Hu family has changed many times is that when Hu Dahu Er took back the slingshot of the previous child and went into the mountains to dig medicine, whenever he saw wild things, few of them could run away from their sight alive.

With meat in the account, the consumption of food is naturally smaller.

Coupled with the mix of all kinds of wild vegetables, his family was not ready to buy more at first, and calculated that there would be enough rations.

But they couldn't stand the exchange of news in the village, they asked who was going to buy how much, who added how much, and they also added more.

Later, someone talked about the victims, and they also thought that there might not be enough food, so the family discussed it for most of the night and decided to buy more and stock up.

If you want to talk about other families in the village, you have to calculate the money spent, the Hu family doesn't use it, they kill the mountain bandits again and again, and their brothers haven't left it behind, and the silver they get is really a lot.

If you have silver, you will have confidence.

His brother Hu Er is right, what are you afraid of, it's all money for nothing, it's serious to eat a full stomach, the first time I spent the winter in Guanzhou, who knows what the situation is, even if there is too much food, it's not that I can't eat it the next year.

In this way, Hu Da left a few more good friends.

There are those in the original village, and there are also several original mountain people's families, all of whom have killed mountain bandits together.

Several families had to multiply, but they couldn't wait, so they ran and waited outside the courtyard.

Standing was weirdly tired, so he naturally squatted down.

No one spoke again.

Mrs. Qi went home and came again.

Wait until the early morning is dark.

In the distance, they saw a figure approaching quickly.

A closer look was Rong Niangzi, who was a helper in the Yan family.

Rong Niangzi looked at them with questions on her face.

Mrs. Qi said: "Let's talk to Brother Heng'er about the amount of grain to buy, don't worry, we will keep our voices quiet and don't quarrel with them." ”

Rong Niangzi nodded and walked in.

Start cooking on the fire......

Yan Yu felt like there were flies in his ears, buzzing and flying.

She waved it twice, one rolled over, and her face hit the cat's body on the side.

The cat didn't even bother to move, opened its eyes slightly, and closed it again.

What does it feel like to suck a when you open your eyes?

Happy! Happiness!

Yan Yu opened his eyes and finally heard clearly what the humming sound that disturbed people's dreams was.

It's all vocals.

I listened to a few words.

She covered her head with a quilt.

Not again!

Or buy the number of grains!

This thing can't get over it.

Let's not talk about the side, the paper written by the big brother is a lot of waste.

Yan Yu looked distressed from the side.

She lifted the quilt suddenly, and her little face was full of solemnity.

It can't be like this anymore.

Those papers, it's expensive!

After she washed up quickly, she couldn't wait for the eldest sister to comb her braids, so she casually picked it up and ran to the place where the sound came.

"Big brother, I'll remember it." Yan Yu said.

Rescued Yan Xiangheng from the crowd, flipped his hand, and showed his charcoal.

I really came prepared.

"Come one by one, line up."

The Yan family's little two looked upright, looking very much like that.

Ignore her messy hair.

Compared with Yan Jiaheng's kindness and courtesy, Yan Yu participated in settling accounts and sending money several times, which invisibly gave everyone a feeling of trustworthiness.

Hu Dadao: "Queue, queue up." ”

Naturally, he stood first.

said with a smile: "Little Er, I changed it before Uncle Hu's family, and I wrote an extra 300 catties." ”
