Chapter 178

Chu Jinhong felt uncomfortable being stared at by him.But the few sweet potatoes and potatoes he had left could not be given away. "Why don't you give me some money, and I'll buy you some sweet potatoes?" Chu Jinhong gritted his teeth and said with a heartbroken heart.

"You bought it casually...wait a minute, are you also from the Chu Family Manor?" Zhang Jaw suddenly asked seriously.

"Yes." Chu Jinhong nodded immediately.

"Then can you get me some coarse grains from Chu Dashan's family? Sweet potatoes and potatoes are fine. Of course, if there is millet, wheat, etc., I don't dislike it." Zhang Jaw grabbed his arm and said enthusiastically.Whoops, I caught the right person.

"Fine grains are enough, but coarse grains should be fine." Chu Jinhong heard from his family members that there was not enough food for the family, so he secretly went to the Chu family compound during the holiday and bought dozens of catties of coarse grains.His fellow clan said that the Chu family compound has never stopped selling coarse grains to the same clan.

"Then how much catty can you bring back? Is five hundred catties okay?" Zhang Jaw asked eagerly.

Chu Jinhong quickly shook his head like a rattle. "It's too much, I can't carry it back. Thirty catties is fine."

Zhang Jaw immediately patted Chu Jinhong's chest vigorously, "With this body, do you have the nerve to bring back thirty catties of coarse grain?"

Chu Jinhong said in his heart, I'm embarrassed, I'm embarrassed.If you hadn't kept pushing me, I wouldn't want to take a catty with me.

"How about I find two people for you, and you carry two hundred catties back." Zhang Jaw pondered while dragging his chin.

"Head, don't, we're not a one-off deal. With our relationship, we can go over and replenish some food every month. If you say we want to make too much at once, people should think we are reselling food. After all, my monthly salary is only so little money! Besides, when I go there to buy grain, I rely on the face of our fellow clan. If I lose even a little face there, why will I buy grain in the future. "

If Chu Dashan's family felt that they were reselling grain on the basis of their own clan, they would no longer sell coarse grain to him at a low price in the future.Don't think that because you are of the same clan, you can always take advantage of Chu Dashan's family.You can see that there is nothing to eat, if you resell it, you will go crazy!
Zhang Jai listened to what he said, and nodded, "Yes, you are right, we still have to keep flowing."

Chu Jinhong nodded quickly.

"That thirty catties is too little, why don't you carry fifty catties back. When the food comes back, we will split half and half. You twenty catties, I thirty catties."

As soon as Chu Jinhong heard this, he immediately started complaining in his heart, what is this called a half split?Shouldn't it be 25 for you and 25 for me?

Zhang Jaw quickly took out a small silver coin from his sleeve and threw it to Chu Jinhong. "If you have nothing to do at night, go get some coarse food."

What else could Chu Jinhong say.It happened that Ma Zhou came out running with his family, Chu Jinhong walked over and picked up the child, and said to Ma Zhou, "Hurry up. I have seen several of them go to the military camp."

The Mazhou family was sweating profusely, but they didn't dare to stop, after all, the house they lived in was involved.Fortunately, Ma Zhou came out to apply for the job early. Although more than a dozen groups have come here, more than 20 houses have been allocated.

But after all, there are still many houses, so the Ma family also picked out a nice small yard. "Ha, you chose this yard well, it just happened to be next door to my house."

It stands to reason that Chu Jinhong is alone, and he should not have his house in the family camp. However, he was worried that his family members would be bullied in the family camp, so he asked a clan brother to put his eldest son under his name. In this way, he has a family and divides the yard.Although the boy's household registration is under his name, he still lives with his clan brother.However, Chu Jinhong sent his family's rations to his brother's family every month.

It's like foster care!

In fact, Mao's foster care means that he subsidizes that close brother in disguise.The two families have agreed that when Chu Jinhong gets married, the child will return to the name of his clan brother.

Similar to Chu Jinhong's operation, there are still many children in the family camp.After all, don't look at the fact that everyone is single now, but it may be when they will get married.What if you get married and don't have a house?
So those who are good in the military camp, the officers tell everyone this little secret, and let everyone secretly build a house.

There are three main rooms in the small courtyard of Ma Zhou's house, and two wing rooms on the left and right.Mazhou is enough to live in after getting married.Besides, brother Ma Zhou also said that he will go to farm in the future. After this recruitment of soldiers, won't the villages come to pick farmers? !
"Brother Chu, when will we be able to get the food?" Ma Zhou tidied up the house a little, and asked Chu Jinhong.

"Come with me first. After receiving your clothes, ID cards, and going through the procedures for entering the camp, you can go and collect your rations and salary for this month. If you think it is not enough, I just want it at night. Go buy some coarse grains to eat, follow me, and I will take you to get some food."

Ma Zhou's eyes widened in an instant.Now there is no food in Miryang City, and there is no half grain of rice in the black market.If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't get food from outside, he wouldn't choose to take the dangerous road of joining the army.

"Can we still get food in the army?" Ma Zhou asked in surprise.

"It's not in the army. It's my village. When the time comes, don't make a sound. If you are asked to pay, you will pay. If you are asked to carry the food, you will carry the food." Chu Jinhong just wanted to find a companion. Go, and the Ma family has just been allocated next door to his house.So he chose to go to Mazhou.

"Row."

Ma Zhou went through all the formalities, took all the things, and took back [-] catties of coarse grain.This is his one-month ration.It's not enough to eat at all.But he didn't make a sound, because he received the food and also gave him a salary of five taels of silver a month.

Take the food and let my sister-in-law cook it for me.He secretly picked up the money, and at night, he whispered to his elder brother and followed Chu Jinhong away.

Chu Dashan's house is in a valley, so there is quietness and beautiful scenery, but the mountain road is very difficult to climb, and there are a lot of big blood-sucking mosquitoes at night.

Chu Jinhong led Ma Zhou to climb into the valley with great difficulty and was discovered.

"Why are you here?"

"I'm Chu Jinhong, the Chu Jinhong who joined the army. There isn't enough food in the army. I'll come here to buy some food." Chu Jinhong hurriedly took Ma Zhou to a spacious place where people could see his face clearly.Then he spoke out loud.

"Oh, it's Jin Hong, let's go, I'll follow me, I'll take you to buy food." Chu Jinhong heard a very familiar voice. "Is it Brother Jinyu?"

"Yeah, that's me." Chu Jinyu was in her early thirties.He is seven or eight years younger than Chu Dashan.But he has a good relationship with Chu Dashan, so after moving here, even the new house he built was funded by Chu Dashan.
