A pair of black goggles peeked out from under her wide hat, and she watched unhindered for a moment, finding a place to cover her body and enter the space.

A moment later, a figure that had been thinner than just now reappeared, with an extra skateboard under his feet.

Twenty miles away, she didn't want to hike a foot deep and a foot shallow, so why not use it if there was a better way?

Cheng Xi is a master who never wrongs himself, so naturally he enjoys how to come.

The left foot touched the ground slightly, the lower body bent, and the figure quickly stepped on the skateboard and paddled out.

The villagers walking on the road only felt a flash in front of their eyes, and when they tried to look hard, they found nothing.

“？！”

“...... What's going on? ”

"Something just passed, didn't it?"

"Ah, this, it seems to be, and it doesn't seem to be?"

Walking passers-by doubt life.

What a hell of a thing.

It must be too much snow!

Cheng Xi slid all the way until a mile outside the city gate, then he stopped, found a place where no one was around, and changed back to the clothes he went out of.

No one noticed the anomaly from start to finish.

At this time, two soldiers in armor were standing at the gate of the city, and they were ...... If you want to sleep or not, you will tremble.

Cheng Xi: "......"

She twitched the corners of her mouth and coughed lightly, successfully scaring the two of them awake.

"Who?!"

"Two big brothers, I want to go into the city."

"Into the city? Oh yes, yes, yes, this is the city gate. ”

The two of them suddenly felt like a dream, rubbed their hands and stretched out, "Two copper plates, hand them over to us and we can enter the city." ”

Cheng Xi did so, and soon entered the city gate, and two complaints faintly came from behind him.

"Damn, it's too cold!"

"Who would have thought that the snow would fall so much this year? I'm about to freeze Lao Tzu to death! ”

"No way, the door still has to be guarded."

"There haven't been many people in the city these days, God it's snowing so hard, who dares to go out?"

"It's because there aren't many people who come that the four people are reduced to two, and if you endure it, you can change shifts later."

Cheng Xi, who heard the conversation, suddenly realized.

No wonder I always feel that something is wrong, there are fewer people who dare to stand guard.

However, there were really few people along the way, so she raised the speed of skateboarding to the highest.

***

Due to the heavy snowfall, the streets of Fucheng have been greatly affected.

The terrain here is already low, and the heavy snow covers almost half of the city, and the snow on both sides basically reaches the windows.

The originally lively market was also closed for a short time, and the only food stalls that could be opened were left except for the necessities.

Cheng Xi stood at the corner of the street and looked at it, and he didn't have to bother too much to see the destination he was going to.

- Without him, there are too many people queuing up at the entrance of the grain store.

"Don't squeeze it, don't squeeze it, there's enough food in the shop!"

"Oh, you'd rather slow down, you stepped on me-"

"What? Black noodles have risen by three cents a pound? Grab the silver, ah, this is! ”

"Oh my God, don't let people live, you black-hearted merchants!"

"Alas, there is no way, it is said that there is a snow disaster in the north, and the grain can't be transported, so it can't go up!"

"What's the price of that rice?"

"It's up two cents."

"What's the matter, the south has also suffered?"

"That's not true, but there are more people who buy it, so don't they just go up."

"If you don't buy it, you won't buy it, and when the snow stops, I won't believe that it will go up!"

Cheng Xi: "......"

There's no need to go in.

Originally, she inquired about the price of food, but thanks to this group of people, she knew everything!

Cheng Xi turned his head and left, without a hint of stopping.

Compared with the grain store, the front of the grocery store can be described as a door full of birds - a cold day, but who wants to come out and freeze if there is something at home?

The only guy in the grocery store was huddled in a corner with mushrooms.

In the past few days, the temperature has dropped to a new low, and most of the other stores have been closed, so the shopkeeper has to be open.

What's the use of it on?

Half a day passed, and he didn't see a single guest enter the door!

"Well, what's the picture, don't I pay for it?"

Dude doesn't understand, dude doesn't understand.

However...... The next second, he was slapped in the face by reality.

"Boss, do you still have salt?"

"Yes, yes! How much salt does the little lady want to buy? ”

Someone, really someone, is still a beautiful little lady!

The guy jumped on the spot, his eyes shining as he looked at the only customer in the store.

Cheng Xi glanced at him strangely, and his eyes swept over the commodities one by one.

"How much salt do you have here?"

"Well, it's a hundred and fifty pounds, little lady, you ......"

What are you doing here?

"It's all there."

Cheng Xi didn't say a word, took out three silver tickets from his body and put them at the counter.

"It's all ???"

Dude is stupid.

"All of them, that's all, right?"

"Yes."

"Okay, I'll take it."

Cheng Xi was originally a resolute character, and after paying the money, he grabbed a sack in one hand and walked out of the grocery store effortlessly.

The guy gasped and was stupid again.

“？！”

What just happened? Did he not wake up and dream?

However, the three silver tickets of fifty taels at the counter clearly told him the truth.

"No wonder the shopkeeper must open the shop, dare he know that there are big customers!"

He must have secretly looked at the yellow calendar himself!

Here, Cheng Xi found a no-man's land, threw two bags into the space, and wandered around again.

First, he went to the embroidery village to buy a lot of embroidery thread for Xingqi, and then took out the medicinal materials that Shen Xingluo handed over to him when he took them out of the space, and exchanged them for two hundred taels of silver in the pharmacy.

"Now the purse is full again."

The previous three thousand taels of silver tickets had already cost seventy-seven eighty-eight, and finally something was in the account.

Shennong Mountain is a big treasure trove, and it is still okay to buy some goods when you have no money occasionally, which is much more profitable than working hard to sell food at the dock.

"As the saying goes, the greater the risk, the greater the benefit, and economists don't lie to me!"

Cheng Xi decided to go often when he was free.

Even if you can't touch the precious herbs, scaring small animals can increase the fun, right?

At the last stop, she went directly to the post station in the south of Lin'an Mansion, and sure enough, as Shen Xingluo expected, Cheng Daqian's latest letter to his family had arrived.

"Xiaoxi, you're here to get the letter?"

"Yes, is there any news from the north of Brother Sun? I've heard that there's a snow storm over there. ”

"Yes, indeed."

Sun Xiaorong cautiously observed the surroundings and took Cheng Xi to find a secluded place.

"The snow disaster in the north is quite serious, many people have frozen to death, and even a few people in the state capital have decided to move south."

"So serious?"

"The prefect has received the news...... Alas, in short, I am afraid that the price of food will rise in the future, so you should prepare more. ”

Cheng Xi was surprised, he didn't expect him to be so well-informed.

But what's the point of the pause?

Prefect, isn't he Zhou Xuzhi's father? The son is not a good bird, and it is estimated that Lao Tzu will not be too kind.

Cheng Xi glanced at Sun Xiaorong again, and gradually tasted the meaning of his words.

"I know, Brother Sun, you should also prepare more."
