Chapter 10 010: Escape from the Famine 2
After a while, Mu Shigao found out and came back.

Mu Shigao called several in-laws over, and then said: "The entry fee is ten Wen per person."

"There are two places in the city where water can be fetched. One is in Shunning Lane in the east of the city, and the other is in the Shifang Inn in the west of the city. Both places charge ten cents a barrel."

Liu Wei frowned and said complainingly, "The entrance fee has increased to ten cents per person. The previous entrance fee was only two cents."

Ten pennies per person is too expensive.

Liu Wei didn't want to go to the city, as for fetching water.Just leave it to the eldest brother and the others, so that he can save ten pennies.

"In this special period, it must be different from before." Mu Shigao looked at several in-laws, "How do you decide whether to go to the city to fetch water?"

With a hesitant look on Jiang Bei's face, he said, "Brother-in-law, wait a minute. Let's discuss it."

Li Qiang scratched his head and said, "Yes, big brother. After we discuss it with our family, we will decide how many people will fetch water."

"Okay, then you discuss it as soon as possible, we have to line up to fetch water in the city earlier."

After the family members left, Liu Wei approached Mu Shigao with a smile, flatteringly said: "Brother, can you please help me to fetch water for our family. This way, we can also save ten cents for the city entrance fee."

Mu Shigao patted Liu Wei's shoulder, and then said seriously: "Brother-in-law, it's not that I don't want to help you. It's just fetching water. We don't know if there is any other situation."

"For example: What if each person can only fetch one tank of water. So, in order to prevent such a situation from happening, it is better for each family to go to one person."

Liu Wei felt a little dissatisfied, and replied with a little resentment: "Okay."

Liu Wei felt that the elder brother Mu Shigao was dishonest, and even his own brother-in-law would not help him.

Liu Weihei returned to his family with a sullen face.Then I complained to my family.

Repeatedly saying that the Mu family is not authentic, unreasonable, stingy and so on.

After hearing this, Mu Yanqiu became a little unhappy and quarreled with him a few times.In the end, Liu Wei's father came out to stop them.

The three Mu Shigao brothers had nothing to say, all three of them were going to fetch water from the city, not only did they need drinking water, but they also had cattle.

After a cup of tea, the in-laws discussed it.They sent representatives to the city to fetch water together.

A group of people drove an ox cart and lined up to enter the city.

After queuing for a stick of incense, they finally arrived at Mu Shiquan and the others.

The soldiers did not let them pass until the entry fee was paid.

After entering the city, everyone discussed, and the group was divided into two waves.

One wave goes to the east of the city, and the other goes to the west of the city.After each family fetched water, there was no need to wait, and they went directly out of the city.

The three brothers of the Mu family went to the far west of the city, and the in-laws went to the closer east of the city.

When Mu Shiquan and the others arrived in the west of the city, they found a long queue.

Mu Shigao said: "You guys wait in line first, I'll go and see the notice over there."

"Okay, big brother." Mu Shiming nodded.

"Okay, brother, you can go." Mu Shiquan took the ox rope from Mu Shigao's hand.

Mu Shigao came back with a sullen face, "Because of the shortage of water, each household can only fetch water once every three days. The bucket for fetching water is based on the county government bucket."

"If the county government's water tank is relatively small, it will cost a lot of money to fill up our large water tank."

"Money is a trivial matter, and it would be nice to have water." Mu Shiquan didn't care much about money. "It's good to be able to buy water with money, but I'm afraid that if I have money, I can't buy water to drink, and that would make people desperate!"

Mu Shigao sighed, "Indeed. Compared with money, water is more important."

After queuing for about half an hour, it was the Mu family's turn.

After the three brothers of the Mu family entered the yard, they saw the bucket next to the well, with expressions of astonishment on their faces.The buckets of the county government are the buckets used by ordinary households.

Using the buckets of the county government, at least ten buckets are needed to fill the large water tanks they bring.

The yamen servant said numbly: "Fill the water yourself. How many buckets of water do you want, and how many buckets to fetch."

"Go."

"Okay, big brother." The three replied in unison.

After that, the three of them fetched water together, and it took the time of a cup of tea for the three of them to fill up the big water tanks of the three houses.

The three paid for the water and left the Shifang Inn.

After leaving Shifang Inn, Mu Shiming and Mu Shiquan went out of the city first.Mu Shigao wanted to inquire about the matter of apprenticeship as a fairy.

However, after inquiring about the waiter in the city and the owner of the shop, they have never heard of immortals.

Mu Shigao returned disappointed.

When the two brothers Mu Shiming returned to the resettlement place, Mu Dabin hurried forward to inquire.

I know that a large tank of water costs one hundred Wen.Visible distress.

"This water is really expensive."

Mu Shiquan quickly explained: "Father, money is a trivial matter, just earn it later."

"Yes, Dad, you don't have to worry about money. You can still buy water with money now. If the day continues like this, I'm afraid that even if you have money, you won't be able to buy water." Mu Shiming also helped and comforted him.

Mu Dabin also understands this truth, but he still can't help feeling sorry for Qian.

After that, each started to light a fire to boil water.

Taking advantage of adults not paying attention, Qingcao sneaked to several large water tanks.Then add some space water to several large tanks.

Because space water can strengthen the body and eliminate fatigue.This was discovered by accident when she was harvesting grain.

During the two weeks of fleeing famine, she would quietly provide water for the family.It can ensure that family members will not get sick.

After adding the space water, Qingcao sneaked back to sit beside her family.

At noon, the village head asked each household to send a representative to discuss matters.

The main thing is to discuss whether to stay in Anfeng City for a few days.If so, they must find other places to settle.

Because the place where they are now resettled is too close to the gate of the city, so it is not safe.

Because all the people who come and go are disaster victims.Conflict and danger can easily arise.

If they don't stay, they will set off at Mao tomorrow morning and continue on their way.Therefore, those who need to replenish supplies must replenish them today.

In the end, the minority obeyed the majority and decided not to stay.

The Mu family still has enough supplies, so there is no need to go to the city to buy more.

And their in-laws, the Liu family and the Li family felt that something was missing, so Liu Wei and Li Qiang went to the city again together.

But when it got dark, the two of them hadn't come back yet.

The Liu family and the Li family were very worried, and they ran to find the third brother Mu Shigao.I hope they go to the city together to find Liu Wei and Li Qiang.

Mu Shigao agreed, but he asked Mu Shiquan to stay and protect his family.If all three of them leave, in case something happens.

None of the three of them came out to protect them.So leave one person to take care of the family.

The two brothers Mu Shigao and the brothers Liu and Li went to the city to find someone.

Several people searched all over the city, but they couldn't find anyone.Because it was getting late, the gates of the city were closed.Several of them had to stay overnight in the city.

Qingcao looked at the closed city gate and said very worriedly: "Father, the city gate has been closed. Uncle and Uncle and the others haven't come out yet. Did something happen to Uncle and the others? Otherwise, why didn't Uncle and the others find anyone to come out."

Mu Shiquan rubbed Qingcao's head, "Little girl, why worry so much, be careful not to grow taller."

"I'm not worried about Uncle and the others." If it was an outsider, she wouldn't worry about it.

"Okay, you can play by yourself."

Qingcao pouted, really a child has no human rights.Qingcao gave a 'hum' and left.

Mu Shiquan turned around and went to look for Mu Dabin.
