Don't panic when fleeing the famine, the peasant girl is busy farming

Chapter 114 Selling Grain and Buying Land
After Jiang Erya left Heifeng Village, she took a bath in the manor to wash away the smell of blood, and then returned to Fangjia Village with a bamboo basket of mushrooms on her back.

When she got home, as soon as she opened the courtyard door, she saw Silly Xing who was earnestly carving flowers with a carving knife.

After staring at Sha Xing's face and admiring it for a while, she finally saw her father, Jiang Erniu.

Jiang Erniu squinted at Jiang Erya for a long time, and before he knew it, the planer in his hand broke the wooden board under his hand.

When Jiang Erniu came to his senses, he saw that the middle of a good plank was planed into rolls of small shavings.

Jiang Erniu put down the plane, put the board aside, and said dissatisfiedly to Jiang Erya: "Girls, don't always act like a perverted ghost."

Jiang Erya denied: "How can I have it? I don't have it."

Jiang Erniu said: "You haven't yet? You just stared at the silly star, almost drooling."

Jiang Erya smiled "hehe", as long as my skin is thick enough, I won't be embarrassed.

She unloaded the bamboo basket on her back, and whispered something serious to Jiang Erniu.

"Father, I just went out. In addition to picking mushrooms, I also saved a group of grain merchants."

Jiang Erniu hurriedly asked, "Are you not injured?"

Jiang Erya shook her head, and said: "No, this time all I encountered were melons, and they were all cut in a few knives.

In order to thank me for saving my life, the grain merchants gave me 300 taels of silver. In addition to the silver, they also gave me several hundred shi of grain. "

Jiang Erniu opened his mouth, "So many?" Her daughter's earning ability is getting more and more amazing, what should I do, I feel so inferior!
Jiang Erya continued: "I'm not afraid of others asking about the origin of these grains.

I plan to take half of the [-] shi of grain I got from Zhu Yuanwai last time, mix it with the grain, sell it for money, and then use the money to buy all the unowned fields near Xinglin Village.

For the remaining [-] shi, I want to donate it after the relief money and food in the hands of the county magistrate are almost used up. "

Jiang Erniu nodded, "Just do it when you think about it, and just tell me what you need Dad. Dad has no other skills, but it's okay to help you."

Jiang Erya shook Jiang Erniu's hand with a smile, and said, "Who says father has no skills?
Your ability is great.

If it weren't for you to help me cover up, the things that the old god gave me would have been exposed hundreds of times.

I can't trust anyone in this world except you.

Later, I will take out all the grain that I want to sell, pile it on the original road, and guard it in place.

You help me go to the county seat, find the county magistrate, and tell him about my rescue of the grain merchant.

You tell him again, I want to sell more than 3000 shi of grain to him for disaster relief at an ultra-low price of eight cents a catty, and ask him to bring people over to transport the grain immediately. "

Jiang Erniu nodded after hearing this, and headed towards the county without even taking a sip of water.

Seeing that Jiang Erniu had gone far away, Jiang Erya came to Sha Xing's side, and said to Sha Xing: "Xing Xing, do you want to go play with me?"

Silly star's eyes lit up for a moment, then darkened again, he said very seriously: "Lady, I can't go out to play, I haven't carved the most beautiful flower in the world for you..."

Jiang Erya stretched out a finger, tapped Sha Xing's straight nose, and said, "Then you carve well at home and don't run around. I'll go out first, and I'll cook mushroom soup for you when I come back at night, okay?"

At this time in the past, Silly Star would nod obediently.But today, he was uncharacteristically, suddenly took Jiang Erya's finger, put it on his lips and kissed it, and said: "Well, I will stay at home and wait for you to come back."

Jiang Erya jumped up as if she had been electrocuted, turned around and ran out of the courtyard.

With her little heart beating wildly, she thought about it with a slightly dizzy mind, "Why am I running away? Isn't it just that I was kissed on the finger by the beauty I have always missed? What's the big deal...

Next time I will definitely not run away, I will go back with a kiss! "

Jiang Erya made up her "big wish" to kiss her back, and with a good mood, she strode away and went to her business.

An hour later, Zhao Wenchang finally arrived at the destination with a large group of people.

When he saw the large pile of grain behind Jiang Erya, he danced with excitement.

"Erya Erya, are you really willing to sell so much grain to me for disaster relief at a price of eight cents a catty?"

Jiang Erya nodded and said, "Really."

Zhao Wenchang was as happy as a child.

According to statistics, there are more than 730 victims in Qingjiang County.

No matter how thin the porridge in the porridge sheds at the gate of the city was, after so many days, more than half of the 220 shi of grain he raised had been consumed.

He has been thinking for the past two days, if the food in his hands can't last the day when the price of food in Qingjiang County drops, should he spend a high price to buy some food for disaster relief?

Unexpectedly, Jiang Erya was so capable that she could get so much grain at once, and she was willing to sell it to him at a price of eight cents a catty.

She has done him a favor again!

"Do you know that the price of grain in Qingjiang County has risen to 43 renminbi a catty, which is more than four times higher than the normal grain price!
Even if the price of food is so high, those victims who are frightened by hunger are still willing to buy it.Also in short supply.

These days, those country gentry and wealthy households have made a lot of money in the country, and they are almost making crazy money.

Compared with them, you are really too noble—"

Jiang Erya interrupted Zhao Wenchang's words, and said: "Keep my praises for now, and I will talk about them later when I have a chance. Hurry up and transport the grains away. Things here are done, and I have to Go home and make mushroom soup for Sha Xing."

Zhao Wenchang responded repeatedly: "Okay, okay."

Zhao Wenchang gave an order, and the large group of people he brought moved into action immediately, those who carried the grain carried the grain, those who weighed it, those who kept the accounts, and those who pushed the carts...

In the end, the bookkeeper took the ledger, fiddled with the abacus, and said to Zhao Wenchang and Jiang Erya: "There are a total of 160 shi of grain, eight coins a catty, and the calculation is 520 eight taels of silver."

Jiang Erya waved her hand and said generously, "Don't give me the 28 taels, let's count it as an integer of 500 taels."

After Zhao Wenchang heard this, he couldn't help but want to praise her.

Jiang Erya said: "Don't brag, just give me the money and do something for me.

I want to buy all the unowned fields in the villages around Xinglin Village, and you send someone to help me with the relevant procedures. "

Zhao Wenchang read the statistics from the people below, "There are quite a lot of unowned fields around Xinglin Village, and you can't buy them for 500 taels. You can only pick and buy."

Jiang Erya smiled and said, "Who said I only have two thousand five hundred taels?
Didn't my dad tell you?
The grain merchants I rescued in the morning not only gave me such a large amount of grain, but also gave me more than 1000 taels of silver to repay their kindness..."
