Chapter 553: Looking for Grandma

Before escaping the famine, half of his stove collapsed because there was no food to eat.

At this moment, the stove was obviously completely repaired, and there was a clay pot hanging on it, which was tied to the beam with iron wire.

This is obviously someone cooking with a fire.

Ah Jiu stepped forward to check with joy in his heart, and sure enough, there was soup in the blackened crockpot.

Ah Jiu lifted his sleeve, reached in, dipped his hand in it, and put it to his mouth to taste.

There is a smell of salt, and there is also a taste of wild vegetables.

Ah Jiu looked around excitedly, and sure enough, at the corner of the half-collapsed hall, he saw the broken bedding.

"Grandma?" Ah Jiu ran out of the yard to check everywhere.

There was a howling cold wind in the dilapidated village, and there was no meaning to echo.

Xu was overly excited, and when Ah Jiu reacted, she realized that she was overjoyed.

If it is really her grandmother, you must know that she is an old fairy who does not eat fireworks in the world, how can she be rare wild vegetable soup?

When the sun set, Ah Jiu rode on horseback and reluctantly looked back, maybe a homeless man lived here.

On the way back to the city, Ah Jiu kept wondering which person had lost his conscience who dug up Grandma's body.

As soon as he entered the city, Ah Jiu went straight to the military grain depot: "Ma Peng, how is the question?" ”

Ma Peng said angrily: "I asked them all, and the villagers who ate and lived together at that time all said that they didn't do that, but I thought about it, and the villagers didn't dig the grave at that time." ”

Ah Jiu sat in the guard's sentry room in frustration.

"Otherwise, I'll let our people pay attention to it, as long as someone did it, this matter can definitely be found." Ma Peng comforted on the side.

"Okay, that's it." Ah Jiu got up and left.

I always feel that the older generation scolds others for digging ancestral graves or something, who would have thought that it could fall on her.

"By the way, Ma Peng, who arranged the bartering of those merchants on the street?" Ah Jiu suddenly remembered this and asked gradually.

Ma Peng's reaction was dumbfounded: "No, Miss Jiu, you don't know, it was arranged by the old sister-in-law, what is it, now the money is not of much use, so I agreed to barter, otherwise I would have stopped those merchants when they entered the city, and you are not here, I dare not call the shots." ”

"My mother?" Ah Jiu was stunned, in addition to cooking and researching food, she also has this brain?

"Yes, your mother also said that for the time being, bartering for goods, when everyone has money in their hands, it will naturally form a shopping with money in the future, and Menghua City will definitely have its own way of life at that time."

As soon as Ma Peng added, Ah Jiuhu nodded suspiciously.

On the way back, Ah Jiu was still wondering when her mother would continue to have ideas about managing the market.

And the idea is good.

Ah Jiu doesn't know how other cities have revived, but she maintains Menghua City well, and she will definitely be able to blossom in the future.

It's just that those later people didn't participate in farming, and even if they did, they didn't get it now, and they exchanged for what they wanted.

Back at the General's Mansion, Ah Jiu handed the cloak to Hua Ling'er.

"Nine girls, you don't know, we have been going back and forth for more than a month, and when I come back, I find that our city has become more lively, what do you think this is?"

Hua Ling followed up all the way to the study.

"What?" Ah Jiu didn't raise his head, and looked at the mountains of ledgers that were piled up and opened one by one.

When I went, Ah Jiu was even more shocked, and he was worried about how the villagers who had no land later lived.

There is a special booklet in this account book, which is the grain sold from the military commissary.

These people were really smart, they took a small amount of silver to buy grain from the military commissary, and then went to the gold store to exchange some money, and then came to the military commissary to buy it, and took the grain to the shop to exchange it for their own needs.

Did you do all this kind of thing? It's not like her mother, isn't it?

"Nine girls, you should take a look." Hanazume was in a hurry.

Ah Jiu looked up at this time: "Ah, isn't this a pearl?" ”

"Yes, I exchanged three catties of grain for five Black Sea Purple Pearls, it looks good!" Saying that, Hua Ling happily gestured on his head:

"I'm going to find a craftsman to make me a pair of earrings, and the remaining three are used to make hairpins, what do you say Nine Girls?"

Ah Jiu smiled knowingly: "Are you planning to take the path of a lady?" At that time, it was not sightful to dance with swords and swords. ”

"Now, I don't have to fight, I also want to find a good man to start a family." Hua Ling confidently threw the pearl in her hand and caught it.

"Didn't you mean ......" Ah Jiu smiled evilly and looked Hua Ling up and down: "Do you like Xue Zhen?" And then I think that King Nanming is calm, domineering and charming, what do you like? Do you want me to find one for you? ”

"No, no, no!" Hua Ling hurriedly waved her hand: "I want what I like, my father and mother were matchmakers when they were alive, and after understanding for a while, I thought my father was not bad and got married, and after getting married, my father revealed the prototype, so I must find it myself." ”
