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

Chapter 31
It was not until noon the next day that the father and daughter processed this batch of grain into a form that could be bought and sold directly.

The two of them hurried to Qingjiang County without taking a rest.

Jiang Erya bought nearly [-] grain sacks and spent a tael of silver to rent an empty yard in a secluded alley in the county town for one day.

Jiang Erniu tidied up the empty yard a bit, and together with Jiang Erya took out the grain and packed it into bags.

There are 130 six bags of grain in full, a total of [-] catties.

Jiang Erniu went straight to the grain shop with some grain samples, and bravely negotiated business with the owner of the grain shop.

At first, the owner of the grain store was reluctant to talk to Jiang Erniu, but after seeing the quality of the samples and hearing Jiang Erniu's asking price, he changed his mind a few times, and honestly took a man and a cart to buy with Jiang Erniu. food.

When I arrived at the yard that Jiang Erya rented, I saw that the bags of grain were piled carelessly in the middle of the yard, but the house behind the yard had five or six doors.

The owner of the grain shop guessed that there must be many people hiding behind those five or six doors, and they might still be holding blood-drinking guys in their hands.

He shuddered with fright, and the last bit of evil thought was extinguished.

The father and daughter must be just people on the outside, and the real seller should be behind the door.

If he didn't buy food honestly, the people behind the door would rush out and kill him and all the people he brought...

Jiang Erniu took the initiative to open the grain bags and asked the owner of the grain shop to inspect the goods, and assured that the quality of all the grains here was consistent with the quality of the samples, and that there was no sand or sand mixed in.

The owner of the grain store looked at it casually and nodded seriously.

A total of [-] catties of grain, whether it is indica rice, japonica rice, round glutinous rice, long glutinous rice, barley, wheat, or corn, are all high-quality new grains with a uniform price of fifteen yuan per catty.

This way of selling, at first glance, is eager to sell.

If the price is weighed according to the type, at least a dozen or so taels of silver can be sold more.If you mention the unit price of each grain, you can get more than ten taels of silver.

Who would rush to sell so much food when food prices soared?
The owner of the grain store had an answer in his heart.

He obediently paid 72 taels of silver.

Jiang Erya inspected the fineness and weight of the silver, and sincerely praised: "The boss is really a cheerful person."

The owner of the grain shop thought too much, and misheard the meaning of regret, as if Jiang Erya was going to do something if he was unhappy.

He looked left and right, and cupped his hands as if begging for mercy: "Harmony makes money, and harmony makes money."

After the clerks loaded the grains into trucks and transported them away, the owner of the grain shop immediately left with his most trusted clerk.

After leaving the courtyard, the owner of the grain shop let out a long sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the other party really only came to sell food, and did not use selling food as a bait to hijack him.

The boss was rejoicing, but the guy turned his eyes to his ear and said, "Boss, the father and daughter don't seem to be very powerful characters at first glance. Why don't we..."

The man stretched out his palm and made a hand knife, and continued: "Then we can take back those 72 taels, and get this batch of grain for nothing."

The owner of the grain store slapped the clerk's hand away, looked behind nervously, then jumped up and poked the clerk on the forehead, cursing in a low voice, "Are you tired of working?

Don't even think about it, now is the time when the crops are not harvested, and there has been no rain for several months, and the price of food has been soaring all the way. Without complete assurance, who dares to put so much food in front of people?
Think again, where did the father and daughter get so much food?

How did they transport so much food into Qingjiang County from under the noses of those geese guarding the city?
And why rush to make a move?

When you think about these questions, you will know why I don't do it. "

When the guy was told by the boss, he immediately remembered one thing.

He said: "I heard that the grain merchants in the next county brought a large amount of grain back from Dongchang County, but they were robbed by mountain bandits on the way.

Could this father and daughter be with that bandit?

The bandits from the next county came to our Qingjiang County to sell stolen goods? "

The boss said: "You don't care if it's bandits selling stolen goods, as long as we have money to make..."

Jiang Erya didn't know the imaginary dialogue between the owner of the grain store and the guy, but felt that the grain sale went very smoothly this time, none of the accidents she expected happened, and none of the methods she reserved were used.

She breathed a sigh of relief, so, it couldn't be better.

Jiang Erya locked the courtyard door, and according to the agreement with the owner, put the key under the stone slab in front of the courtyard door, and went to various shops with Jiang Erniu.

……

Jiang Erya didn't know that before fleeing famine, all she wanted was to exchange grain for money, and then use the money to buy fine cotton cloth to make clothes, buy fish and meat to eat, build a big house to live in, and buy a carriage to travel.

After knowing that she was going to flee the famine, what she thought was not to be hungry, not to be cold, not to be sick, not to be alone, not to die...

Adhering to the principle of being prepared, she buys whatever she sees.

Chai, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar tea, except for rice, can be bought.

Star anise, Chinese prickly ash, pepper, cinnamon, dried shrimps, and mushrooms weigh two catties each.

Three sets of summer clothes, autumn clothes, and winter clothes, father and daughter each.

Three pairs of shoes, boots, and socks.

Buy five or six bolts of cheap linen, and two bolts of not-cheap fine cotton.

Buy needles and threads.

Cotton too expensive?You have to buy it too.

After leaving, no one knows when they will be able to return.Once autumn is over, it will be cold winter. Without a quilt at night, people will really freeze to death.

After buying cotton, Jiang Erya went straight to the medical center, wanting to buy some commonly used medicines.

When I went to the medical clinic and asked, the decoction had to have a doctor's prescription to take the medicine. The ready-made pills were supplements except for supplements, and there was no cold medicine she wanted.There are medicated oils and plasters for bruises.

Jiang Erya frowned.

Jiang Erniu reminded: "Why don't we grow more ginger, ginger is also a medicinal material, drink ginger soup if you have a minor illness, drink ginger soup when you are dizzy, drink ginger soup to warm up in winter, and drink ginger soup to sober up." soup……"

In a word, ginger soup is omnipotent.

Jiang Erya wanted to laugh, and after laughing, she bought some medicinal seeds.What ginseng, astragalus, atractylodes macrocephala, licorice... as long as there are in the medical center, she bought them all.

When passing by the book store, she dived in again and bought a few medical books with illustrations.

Although the spiritual spring water in the manor has miraculous effects, I am afraid that I will encounter injuries that the spiritual spring water will not work.

As a last resort, she plans to take medicine for herself according to this medical book...

Then, Jiang Erya went to the carpenter's shop and bought wooden products such as buckets, water basins, bathtubs, and three brand new wheelbarrows.

Finally, before the blacksmith shop closed, she bought all the finished ironware in the blacksmith shop.

Jiang Erniu was puzzled, and asked her why she bought so many knives, axes, hammers, scissors and the like.

Jiang Erya said: "These things are usually tools for daily use. If you encounter bad guys who rob Dao'er, you can use them as sharp weapons for self-defense."

She has a system backpack, which can hold all kinds of things, so of course she has to buy more.If you can't use it up yourself, you can also send it to people who have a good relationship with them.

Jiang Erniu, who was originally quite optimistic, suddenly fell silent.

The bad guy who robbed the road?A weapon for self-defense?
Yes, there are accidents on the way to escape from famine, even if his family has the blessing of the "old god", it may not be safe all the way.The old fairy also has a nap, and at the critical moment, he has to rely on himself...
