Escape from the Famine

Chapter 26 27. Food
The only silver in Zhao Gang's hands was pooled by the whole village, and he couldn't buy much rice. Dozens of people in Zhaojia Village couldn't afford to eat for a few days.

"Why did you increase the price?" Chi Yu turned around and asked the frightened shopkeeper.

She also wanted to buy some grain to show off. After all, she has money now and can just buy it from the mall of her bank system. The rice there is cheap, only a penny a catty.

The price of rice here has increased tenfold, isn't that just one tael of silver per catty?
The shopkeeper came back to his senses, thinking that there was someone behind him to back him up, and he was not afraid in an instant.

What does a village girl have to be afraid of?

"Where do you come from? We are the only grain shop in Nanshan City. If you want to buy grain, you have to pay more!"

The shopkeeper raised his head and chest, and spoke with confidence.

The people watching the excitement dared not speak out, they didn't want to offend the shopkeeper. If they offended him, they would not be able to buy food, so no one dared to speak up for Zhao Gang.

"Add more money? How much more?"

Chi Yu looked at the shopkeeper with a doggy smile all over his face.

The shopkeeper is more confident, so what if you can fight?Why don't he obediently flatter him when he has food?
Arthur held his forehead in the space, and the master had such a smile on his face, he must be suffering from a second disease!
The baby had lost his sight, and lay on Chi Yu's shoulder, not wanting to see what the shopkeeper would see in the next moment.

Chi Yu stepped in front of the shopkeeper, and before he could react, a skinny chicken paw grabbed his neck.

Well!The shopkeeper's eyes bulged in disbelief.

ah!There was a commotion among the crowd.

They never thought that Chi Yu would come up with this trick.

"Add more money, right? You said what if I crush you to death? Do you still spend the money you earn?"

Chi Yu increased the strength in his hands. '

The shopkeeper's face turned purple eggplant color, death was approaching, he felt that he was dying!
Kakaka—there was the struggling sound of death approaching in his throat.

The shopkeeper looked at Chi Yu imploringly, he didn't want to die!

"Is it possible to sell grain at the original price now?"

Chi Yu gritted his teeth and said every word.

The shopkeeper nodded fiercely, yes, yes!If you don't agree, she will die!
It's important to save your life now!

"Everyone hurried to buy food, the shopkeeper promised to restore the original price to sell food!"

"Zhao Gang took people to buy food, and Yin Lin also went to buy food!"

Chi Yu held the shopkeeper's neck as a hostage, in case she went to rescue soldiers.

Those thugs had been beaten unconscious by Chi Yu long ago, and they haven't woken up yet.

"Really! Go buy food!"

"Hurry up and buy food!"

The onlookers rushed into the grain store in a swarm.

Yin Lin also rushed in to carry food, carrying several bags of rice and putting them on the carriage.

Zhao Gang was also polite, and moved a lot of rice to the ox cart.

Chi Yu saw that Zhao Gang was almost ready to move, so the shopkeeper was knocked unconscious by him and thrown into the rice vat.

In the end, he kindly threw in ten taels of silver.

She didn't take food for nothing, she bought it!
"Let's go quickly!"

When she arrived in this Nanshan City, she made a big fuss, and if she didn't leave, she couldn't leave.

She wondered if she had an unlucky physique?It's a hassle wherever you go!
"Let's go too!" Zhao Gang took his men and ran behind Chi Yu's carriage.

At this time, an urgent report was received at the gate of the city, and the guards were asked to close the gate to catch the thief.

drive!Yin Lin drove the carriage very smoothly, and just after running out of the city gate, the gate of Nanshan City closed behind him.

Chi Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay! We ordered it out in a hurry."

Zhao Gang and the others followed behind and did not fall behind.

Finally reached the woods outside the city before dark, Zhao Quan breathed a sigh of relief seeing Zhao Gang and the others come back.

Aunt Li and Li Yi saw Chi Yu getting off the carriage, and happily greeted him.

"Master, you are back!"

Aunt Li has been worrying here all day.

"Aunt Li, quickly pack up your things and put them in the carriage, we can't stay here tonight."

Chi Yu put the baby on the carriage and helped Aunt Li move things.

There are not many things, just a clay pot, a few bowls, two clothes, and water in bamboo tubes.

"Okay!" Aunt Li didn't ask anything, and hurried to move things.

Li Yi was not idle either, and helped out together.

Zhao Gang came over at this time and said, "Girl Yu, what are you doing?"

Seeing that they were in a hurry, they seemed to be on their way.

But it's getting late, isn't it?
"If you want to survive, get out of here quickly. It would be bad if people see the food on your body."

Chi Yukan gave them a piece of advice for riding their ox cart all the way.

Originally, I thought about buying a carriage and parting ways, but now is the time.

Zhao Gang suddenly thought of something and turned pale with shock, "Girl Yu, are you going to leave? Are we going to separate?"

If they go separately, they may not be able to reach Spring Valley.

These days, he also understands that the real boss is a woman who looks thin and weak.

If you don't hold the big brother's thigh at this time, when will you wait?

"Yes! Now that I have bought a carriage, I won't ride in your ox cart."

Chi Yu said this directly.

Arthur covered his face and couldn't bear to look at Zhao Gang's broccoli-green face!

Straight girl no doubt!

This is a bullock cart that dislikes others!

Arthur still dare not tell his master that the reward for saving people just now was a pack of [-] grams of salt!

What if he was hacked too?
"Girl Fish, can we come with you?"

Zhao Gang didn't think too much about it, he just thought they would be safe with Chi Yu.

Chi Yu looked at the group of people in Zhaojia Village not far away, and the eyes of the two children were full of confusion and bewilderment about the way ahead.

She can ignore those adults, but children are a hurdle for her.

"Okay! If you want to follow me, you can listen to me in everything, or you can go on your own!"

Chi Yu also looked at the two children's faces.

"Okay! We will definitely listen to you."

Zhao Gang's heart was finally let go.

Before meeting Chiyu, they had a difficult life every day, but after meeting Chiyu, their lives were better than before.

This made him understand that this woman is really capable.

"Let Zhao Wen and Zhao Wu get into the carriage together! The two children are walking too slowly."

The two children in Zhaojia Village are brothers, named Yiwen and Wu.

"Okay! You two hurry up and get into the carriage!"

Zhao Gang sent the two children to the carriage, and began to order the villagers to set off together.

Zhao Quan didn't say anything, and set off with the villagers behind Chi Yu's carriage.

Aunt Li, Chi Yu and the children sat in the carriage, while Yin Lin and Li Yi sat outside the carriage and drove the carriage.

Despite being thin and weak, the white horse was fed a few stamina pills by the fish in the pond, and now it is full of stamina!
A group of people are rushing in the dark. It is not a good decision to travel at night, and there is no way to do it.

If the people in Nanshan City can't find the perpetrator, they will definitely go out of the city to chase after them. They must leave the boundaries of Nanshan City as soon as possible.

The ox cart was always moving slowly, and Chi Yu's carriage could only slow down and wait for them.

Just as Chi Yu expected, the dead meat ball was the only heir of the county magistrate's family. Seeing his son's death, the county magistrate ordered the whole city to search for it.

After searching in the city for a whole night, they found nothing. At dawn, the yamen arresters went out of the city to find someone, and the direction they were looking for was exactly the direction Chi Yu and the others were going.
