Just as Shen Xingluo guessed, the news that people were not allowed to enter the city soon came out.

- They can't hold it!

The city covers an extremely large area, and because it is an important transportation hub linking the north and south of the Great Yan Dynasty, the prosperity level can be said to be close to that of Kyoto.

However, no matter how big the city is, it is limited.

There are only a few grain shops in the market, and it is impossible to provide all the people with chewing in a short time.

"The north has suffered a heavy snowstorm that is rare in a century, and the rice and noodles have been stopped a month ago, and our supply can only rely on the water and land in the south!"

"But the north is the main force of grain production, and many people are counting on black faces to live......

"What can be done then? It is said that the imperial court also transferred a large amount of grain for disaster relief! ”

"If you don't sell it, you won't sell it, you won't sell any silver, keep it for yourself!"

If it was able to rely on land and water transportation at the beginning, then now the grain merchants have reached the point of exhaustion.

Most of the people in Fucheng realized that this snow disaster was not easy to overcome, so they grabbed their tails and retracted their nests quietly.

Or maybe this is just the beginning?

When the grain shops in the city can't stand it, it means that the whole city can't stand it.

The people who enter the city have no food to buy, and it is easy to get into chaos, and the lord of a city knows how to cut through the chaos with a little brain.

Seal the city gates!

As the news of the lockdown reached Shenjia Village, a familiar guest came to the Shen family's courtyard.

"Sister-in-law, long time no see!"

Qin Zheng, who was dressed as a bear, saluted with his hands together, but the clothes on his body were too bloated to make this action look a little nondescript.

"Qin Gongzi, don't come unharmed."

Cheng Xi twitched the corners of her mouth, if she remembered correctly, it would have been more than a month since the last time they met.

It's not a year or two, where is it for a long time?

The ancients were subtle.

"Gongzi Qin and Fujun are talking, I'll go to the kitchen to have a look."

"Kitchen?!"

Qin Zheng subconsciously raised his voice, and his eyes widened.

"Sister-in-law, do you have ribs at home?"

"Yes."

"I want sweet and sour pork ribs!"

“...... Got it. ”

Cheng Xi was going to retract what he had just said.

The ancients were subtle, but definitely not Qin Zheng!

"There is also salt-baked chicken, and pork belly is not missing...... Ay? Brother Shen, don't pull me cough cough! ”

"Shut up!"

"I've taken the risk to deliver something to you, and I've spent a lot of money to get some of the soldiers at the city gate, so can't you be polite to me?"

In the study, Qin Zheng sorted out the white cloak that was scratched on his body.

"Huh? Brother Shen's house is so warm! ”

"I didn't let you come."

Shen Xingluo rolled his eyes and cared for him with the eyes of the mentally retarded.

"The truth that money is not leaked, Qin Gongzi doesn't know? You drove into the village with a cart of grain, do you know how much trouble you caused me? ”

"What, someone else can't grab it?"

“......”

"No, just for this bit of food, someone will really rob it?"

Shen Xingluo looked shocked at Qin Zheng's face, and he was immediately deflated.

Why did he end up with such a brainless stupid classmate? Thanks to this product, it is not the eldest grandson of the Qin family, otherwise Qin Lao would not be able to sleep in the middle of the night!

I guess it's enough to choke now......

"Do you have enough food in your house?"

"Enough. Last time, I listened to your advice, and I asked my father to bring a few boatloads of rice and noodles from all over the world to prepare, but I didn't expect to encounter a snowstorm. ”

Qin Zheng's face showed a look of joy.

"I have made a lot of silver taels from these boatloads of grain, but the grain shop will not be able to open tomorrow."

"Are you going to open it, or can't you?"

“......”

This time, the silence was replaced by Qin Zheng, and his expression was no longer the cynicism just now.

Shen Xingluo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, it seems that his friends are not so useless, and his mind is still spinning occasionally.

"The city is closed, and we must not be careless. Now that there is a shortage of food everywhere, the Qin family is like a piece of fat in the city, and many people want to go up and take a bite. ”

"I know, I'm going to be able to walk around today and bring you something."

It's not that Qin Zheng doesn't understand anything, it's just that most of the time he's too lazy to bother.

"Brother Xingluo, don't you really want to go back to the city to live?"

"No return."

"I see that your body is indeed better than last time, but you have to think about your sister-in-law, you are really from Fucheng, can you stand the days in the countryside?"

“......”

You may not believe it, but the sister-in-law in your mouth is more suitable than anyone else.

She is about to become a tyrant in Shennong Mountain, and the big insects have to lie on their stomachs when they see her.

***

Fucheng announced the closure of the city gate, and most of the villagers in Shenjia Village had surplus grain, but they became the most calm group.

Faced with this fact, the villagers scolded and complained a few words, turned their heads and began to discuss how to go up the mountain to cut firewood.

- It is better to have that leisure than to solve the current difficulties.

Without firewood, they would have frozen to death!

However, for most people, including Dahe Village, closing the city gate is tantamount to blocking the only way for them to live.

"What? Fucheng won't let people in? ”

"Why, is there no food in the city?"

"Longevity! I used to be able to buy a few catties of black noodles to last for a few days, but now what can I do? ”

"God doesn't give you a way to live, if you don't have food at home, how can you live!"

The prolonged cold and hunger made the people who had no food at home suffer twice as much, and as each day passed, their expressions gradually changed from the initial bitterness to numbness.

And in places that are invisible to everyone, sin is also quietly breeding.

Ten days before the Chinese New Year, the villagers of Shenjia Village ushered in the second day of going up the mountain to cut firewood.

It was also the "first time" for Shen Xingluo to appear in front of everyone.

His figure successfully attracted the attention of more than a dozen burly men, and even Shen Manchu, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but tremble when everyone looked at him together.

This gaze is a little unbearable!

Speaking of which, the villagers didn't mean it, but they were really curious about what it was like to raise people who had learned a few hands from their father-in-law.

However, at this glance, nothing could be seen, and the person who came was still as thin as before, as if a gust of wind could blow it away.

If you want to talk about change...... Except for the ugly scar on his face, which is thinner than before.

Can this?

I'm afraid it's not blowing too much!

The doubts on the faces of the villagers have been almost pasted to their heads, but anyone who is not stupid can see it, let alone a person like Shen Xingluo?

But he didn't speak, just slammed the machete in his hand to the ground.

"Are you all here?"

Everyone's eyes moved to the machete, and their expressions were unconsciously tense.

No way, they're all too familiar with this machete!

Shen Manchu coughed lightly, "What, is Lianhu here?" ”
