Chapter 111 The first day of fleeing famine

"Isn't it? This border war is chaotic, is there still a drought here? This world is going to let people live?"

"Lizheng, but it's late autumn now, and winter is coming soon. Even if we escape, where can we escape?"

Li Zheng looked solemn: "Fleeing all the way to the north, the south of the Yangtze River is rich and prosperous, we will go there to settle down, leave one step earlier than others, there will be a glimmer of hope!"

"Hey! Even if Jiangnan is rich and prosperous, our journey must not be peaceful!"

"Then what should we do? If we don't move, we can only wait to die!"

"Don't waste time, everyone go back and inform your home, prepare some dry food for the road, we will leave in three days, try to find a place to stay before winter comes, spend this cold winter, and start again in spring." Li Zheng made a decision directly ,
No matter how unwilling everyone is, they can only do so!
Shen Dashan went home and told the news,
The house was quiet.

And Jiang Ci knew about it a long time ago, so there was no surprise.

"Fleeing again? Old man, we managed to escape to this village 30 years ago, why are we fleeing again! Does God want our lives?"

Qian Wangshi burst into tears,
"Hey! There is no sign at all, so why did the general surrender to the enemy? There are tens of millions of people behind him!"

Qian Tiezhu also looked dejected,
He gritted his teeth with hatred for the defected general, but it was of no use.

"It's useless to talk about it, let's hurry up and buy things for the road! According to the village chief, he met a family of refugees on the road and got the news. When the news of the general rebelling against the enemy really comes out, the price of food will definitely rise Already!"

Shen Dashan frowned,
"That's right! We have to go to the town to stock up more grain. Every family in our village has surplus grain or old grain. Only our poor commander. If we don't buy grain, we won't even be able to live for three days." Don't go down!"

As Qian Guixiang spoke, she wanted to go to the town anxiously.
He was stopped by Jiang Ci: "Mother! Let me handle the food storage. You bake more pancakes at home, and we will eat them on the way."

Qian Guixiang was a little worried, and specifically instructed: "Xiaoci, the road to escape from the famine is no better than at home. You are delicate, and you can buy some rice and flour. But your grandfather, grandmother, and your father are all rough people. Just eat black noodles and brown rice, if the price is cheap, we can eat anything.”

Jiang Ci smiled, but didn't speak,

The food in her space is enough for their family to eat in a lifetime!
A few people work together, and the medical treatment is completely put down, and everyone doesn't need to prepare medicinal materials anymore.

Qian Guixiang and Qian Tiezhu helped Qian Guixiang pancakes and steamed buns,

And Jiang Ci and Shen Dashan went to the mountain to catch prey in two ways. Jiang Ci only kept one or two of the prey caught by Jiang Ci at a time, and threw the rest into the space.

All Shen Dashan caught was made into bacon, smoked chicken, smoked rabbit, wolf meat, roe deer meat, venison meat, etc. were eunuched with salt,
And Shen Shuan was not idle, and took the village children to fish in the river. I heard that they even invented fishing nets. Anyway, they brought back big pots every day.
Qian Guixiang fried them all into dried fish!

And Jiang Ci made some mushroom sauce, chili sauce, pickled vegetables, spicy strips and so on when he was free. If it is not convenient to cook on the road, he can eat with dry food.

In short, the people in the village are busy with their work.

There are elderly people in the village, and a dozen or so households gritted their teeth and bought a scooter.

And as expected by Jiang Ci, on the second day after the villagers bought the grain, the price of the grain went up crazily, and the price was twice as much as before.
Those farmers who waited and watched no longer dared to hesitate and bought grain directly.Every morning, the grain in the grain store was sold out early.

On the third day after the villagers purchased the grain, the price of the grain doubled directly.
However, due to the urging of the village chief, all the villagers bought food on the second day, and they were not affected much.
In the early morning of the fourth day, all the villagers of Taohua Village came out with their families and their mouths. Looking around, there were piles of things on everyone, not only dry food, but also

There are bedding, straw mats, iron pots, etc.

Some even carried their own chickens, ducks and geese,
Converging into a long fleeing team,

Jiang Ci couldn't help being shocked when she saw it. If she didn't have space, she must be one of these villagers!

Jiang Ci's house is considered the lightest and cheapest. There are ox carts, and several people can take turns to rest.

In this way, the fleeing team of Taohua Village began to set off.

In late autumn, even though the sun was in the sky, there was not much heat, and people stopped for lunch.

"Mom! How long will it take to escape? My legs are already sore, I don't want to go!"

"Good boy! Keep going! When we get to the north, we won't have to walk every day!"

"When do we have to go to the north?"

The woman is speechless,

Situations like this abound in the team.

Because the days have settled down, some families can't help pampering their children a little bit. After a while, some children can't stand it after such a long journey.

The smoke from lunch is rising, and the aroma of the food is coming slowly!
And the best of Jiang Ci's family has just fled famine, and every household has enough food. Their family can only be so extravagant and wasteful in the early stage, and they have to clamp their tails tightly in the later stage!

Jiang Ci fried a pork stir-fry with celery, a plate of spicy tofu, some pancakes with baked wild vegetables, and a pot of porridge with pumpkin and red dates. The whole family was satisfied.

However, Qian Tiezhu and Qian Wang wanted to eat less, but every time Jiang Ci distributed food, it happened to be everyone's food intake.

So Qian Tiezhu and Qian Wang could only accept it with a smile.
But their hearts were even more bitter. They felt that this was the only way to live, and in the past month, the old couple seldom even thought of their children.

After a short rest, the long fleeing team embarked on the journey again.

On the first day of fleeing famine, everyone's footsteps were not too slow, and they found a cave to rest before dark.

Jiang Ci's team was close to the cave wall, so as soon as they settled down, Jiang Ci sprinkled some medicinal powder to repel snakes, insects, rats and ants when everyone was not paying attention.

As soon as I sat down, someone from the village came over to remind me:
"There is a small stream in front, sister-in-law of sweet-scented osmanthus, do you have water in your house?"

"Alright, I don't know if I can see the water source tomorrow!" Qian Guixiang took away the gourds and bamboo tubes that everyone was holding water in.
There is also water, all poured into a gourd,

Jiang Ci didn't stop her, her family couldn't be a different person in the eyes of the crowd, even if there was water in her space, she still had to make an appearance for everyone!

Compared with the smoke from the kitchen at noon, the smoke from the kitchen at night was obviously reduced by half.
After walking for more than ten miles a day, some people ate some pancakes and pickles that they carried with them as soon as they had a place to rest. After making do with it, they fell tired and fell asleep.

But in the cave, with many people in one place, the food at Jiang Ci's house became much more normal:
