Longevity Family: Invite Taoist couples, girls please stay

Chapter 31 Hoarding Food
Back in the yard, Su Yang took a look at the mind-controlling worm he cultivated. It has entered the final stage, and it is estimated that it will mature in a few days, so he can experiment with it then.

If it really works, I will buy the people from Tong Yizhuang and ask them to help me collect heart-eating worms.

in the afternoon.

Zhou Family Market.

Now this is the only market in Yanggu County, and it is quite lively, but most of the transactions are necessities, and few people buy some ordinary department stores, and the most traded are firewood, rice, oil and salt.

At the beginning, the business of firewood, which Su Yang least expected, was also very prosperous. After all, farmers outside the city could not bring the firewood they cut into the city, and every firewood burned would lose one firewood, which is a non-renewable resource in Yanggu County.

However, after a period of time, if the people in Yanggu County die more and the houses are more empty, there will be more firewood to burn.

In addition to necessities such as firewood, rice, oil, salt and medicine, there are also cloth, tea, chicken, duck, fish, fruit, buns, wontons...!
In addition to selling ordinary daily necessities, there is a special area called the People's Market, which is dedicated to selling wives, daughters, and domestic slaves. There are straws waiting for buyers, but the business is bleak, and few gold owners are willing to visit.

Su Yang glanced at it with the qi-watching technique, all of them were white luck, and the girl's appearance was not particularly outstanding, so let's take a look again after a while.

"How do you sell your chicken?" Su Yang walked up to a middle-aged man and asked.

"A chicken costs two taels of silver, no bargaining."

"So expensive?"

Su Yang screamed out suddenly, a chicken is only about four catties, two taels of silver is two thousand Wen, a catty of chicken is five hundred Wen, and a catty of chicken was only fifty Wen before the troubled times, which is a big increase ten times!
"Now that Mi's house has increased tenfold, and the price of firewood has increased dozens of times, won't my chicken be allowed to increase in price too? What's more, my chicken can still lay eggs, and after laying eggs, I can continue to hatch chicks...!"

The middle-aged man snorted coldly.

"Yes, you are right. I want all ten of yours. I will go buy some pork first. You will wait here."

"it is good."

The vendor nodded, and Su Yang walked towards the pork vendor's stall again, planning to buy some lard and pork back.

In fact, the chicken seller is right. This chicken can lay eggs, which is the most cost-effective for him. After all, the family has a lot of food and can raise a large number of hens. The eggs laid by these hens are rich in nutrients and can meet the needs of pregnant women.

This is the first time I have come to the market, I plan to take a look at it first, and I will bring some people when I come next time, so as to strive for a sufficient purchase, it is best to change my face.

Pork is almost always sold at the three stalls of Zhou, Feng, and Wei. Ten catties of pork are two taels of silver, and lard suet is a little more expensive, ten catties of pork suet is three taels of silver.

I ordered a pig, about three hundred catties, a total of 67 taels of silver, and poured it all out of the cowhide bag. In the past, the 67 taels of silver were enough to buy ten pigs.

Ten chickens cost 20 taels, a total of 87 taels!
With a pig on his back and ten chickens in a bag in his hand, he swaggered out of the Zhou family market. Many people stared at him along the way, but when they saw Su Yang entering the gate of the Wang family, they all shook their heads and left. Big players are not something they can mess with.

In addition to the slave warriors, there are also ninth-rank warriors sitting in the town.

After returning home, Su Yang found a yard to raise the chickens for laying eggs. There are many people in the family, but the ten chickens are still a little less, and he will buy more when he goes shopping next time.

The next day.

After breakfast, Su Yang told about Meihua's pregnancy.

"what?"

"Pregnant again?"

"how is this possible?"

Liu Wenxiang, Wang Xiahe, and Wang Chunxiao shouted in unison, with their mouths wide open and faces full of disbelief.

This pregnancy speed is too fast, is it possible that every time it is a poop?

"Brother-in-law, aren't you too powerful?" Wang Xiahe widened her big Shui Lingling eyes, and slowly moved her eyes towards Su Yang's lower body.

In the future, when choosing a husband-in-law, one must choose a brother-in-law.

"These are all the heirs of our family, and the incense of our family should be happy, and my uncle has worked hard."

Liu Wenxiang looked at her daughter, Wang Chunxiao, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh. She really didn't know what bad idea her daughter had come up with. How about this?
The two Tongfangs are all pregnant. How can you still have your status with my uncle in the future?

"Thank you, mother-in-law, for your concern. I don't know how your mother-in-law is doing recently, but my son-in-law will stay here to give her a shoulder squeeze?" Su Yang said, staring at Liu Wenxiang.

"Need not!"

"After the meal, I personally left for my mother to pinch my shoulders."

When Wang Chunxiao saw Su Yang staring at his mother greedily, his heart was shocked, and he quickly rejected Su Yang's request, feeling extremely depressed.

Originally, he wanted to send Mei Hua to restrain this dead scholar, so that he would not hook up at home, so as not to ruin the reputation of his mother or sister, but he never thought that he would be pregnant so soon.

Meihua was just pregnant and couldn't wait for her, so she showed courteousness to her mother, this matter must be guarded against, recalling what Aunt Liu said to herself again in her mind, there were only two choices.

Or, fill in the room yourself!
Or, find a maid to fill in the recipe! !
But this time, Wang Chunxiao was also a little worried, what if the maid sent this time became pregnant again in a few days?
Is it possible that after a year, the yard will be full of pregnant women?

"Okay, let's find another chance later, I'll leave when I'm full." Su Yang said, turned and left.

"Chunxiao, what are you going to do about my uncle's matter?"

"Mother, do you want to find another one?"

"Ugh……!"

……

"Mother-in-law, there is one more thing I forgot to say." At this moment, Su Yang walked in again.

"What's the matter?" Liu Wenxiang said.

"At the Zhoujia Market, a pig costs more than 60 taels of silver, and a chicken costs two taels of silver. The price has increased dozens of times compared to before."

"What? Dozens of times?"

"It's so high?" Liu Wenxiang and Wang Xiahe asked in surprise.

"The rebel army is besieging the city, nothing can be brought in, and the consumption is non-renewable. I guess it will be more expensive after a while, so I plan to buy more chickens and bring them back to raise."

"In addition, stock up on more pork, sausage, and bacon for emergencies."

Su Yang said.

"If you want so much money, which little lady are you going to take care of?" Wang Chunxiao gritted his teeth.

"Chun Xiao, don't talk nonsense. If there is no uncle here, we don't know if our family is here. In the future, we should be more polite to the uncle, understand?"

Liu Wenxiang immediately glared at Wang Chunxiao, and immediately said, "I'll get you some money."

"it is good!"

Su Yang nodded, the mother-in-law was still sensible at home.

Soon, the charming Liu Wen quickly fetched a bag of silver and said, "Here is 100 taels!"

"Mother-in-law, 100 taels may not be enough. I plan to buy at least 250 more chickens and three pigs. It will cost about [-] taels."

"so much……?"

Liu Wenxiang frowned slightly in embarrassment, since the last time he hoarded grain, the money in the family was running out, and the property in the Jiangnan Tower could not be sold.

"Dead scholar, how many young ladies are you going to hire for so much money? Since the family listened to your advice and spent all their savings, they have no money after hoarding [-] dans of grain."

"Now, the silver is gone, and the food is also gone in a big fire. If you hadn't made up your mind at the beginning, how could our Wang family have fallen into such a state, and hundreds of taels of silver have suffered?"

Wang Chunxiao gritted his teeth with tears in his eyes.

The money that was used to buy food back then was earned by my father with one tael and one tael of blood and sweat. But because he believed Su Yang's words, thousands of taels of silver were wasted. If his father was still alive, wouldn't he be killed alive? Mad.

"To shut up."

In the next second, I saw Liu Wenxiang yelling at Wang Chunxiao like a mad lioness: "Even if there is something wrong with my uncle, there is no need for you to say more here."

"Since I let my uncle run the house, I will hand over all the affairs of the family to my uncle. If I hear such words again in the future, I will definitely punish you."

"Mother?"

"you……!"

Wang Chunxiao looked at Liu Wenxiang in bewilderment, his eyes were full of shock and disbelief, it was hard to imagine that those words just now came from the mouth of his mother who loved him the most.

Just for a son-in-law?
"Don't blame my son, this kid has been spoiled since he was a child, I'll get you money."

After Liu Wenxiang spoke in a soft voice, she twisted her plump body and went to the room to get the money.

Only my uncle, Xiliu and myself know the inside story of the hoarding of food being burned. The so-called burning of food is just eye-catching, and I don’t want to arouse the jealousy of some people. I am afraid that it will be spread, so naturally the fewer people who know the better, the better.

From the time my uncle entered this house, any decision he made was very safe, and it invisibly saved the Wang family from many disasters. This is why Liu Wenxiang was so relieved that Su Yang was in charge of the family.

Now in Liu Wenxiang's mind, Su Yang, this uncle is completely worthy of his daughter. What is the weak bone that was passed on at the beginning? I need to find an opportunity to talk to my daughter in the future. This uncle is hard to find even with a lantern. Don't make mistakes. up.

What Wang Chunxiao said just now, although he didn't know it, he wronged my uncle, and Liu Wenxiang will defend it desperately.

Wang Chunxiao looked at his mother's back, and then looked at Su Yang's unsuspecting eyes, and his heart skipped a beat.

Why does mother defend this son-in-law so much?

Could it be?

A bad premonition hit my heart, this dead scholar really can't rest, isn't he afraid of being abolished?

It seems that it is still necessary to find a suitable maid as soon as possible.

……

Liu Wenxiang came out with the silver, and Su Yang stepped forward to catch it. Although the mother-in-law was nearly 30 years old, not only did she still have the charm, but her hands were soft and smooth.

After going out, Su Yang took two nurses and house slaves with him, and bought all the items on the list. Yanba spent a lot of money, and the total of more than 300 taels of silver was gone.

There are more than 30 chickens and four pigs in total, but they are all slaughtered. They should be made into bacon and sausages for storage as soon as possible. In the next period of time, the nutrition of pregnant women will be completely fine.

Yanggu County Yamen.

The county magistrate's brother-in-law Liu Tunto stretched out his waist, threw the last land deed into the box, and said, "Is everything settled?"

"Head, everything has been dealt with. There are a total of three families who are not sensible and need us to teach them a lesson. The remaining five families are quite sensible."

"Which three?"

"The Wang family who recruited the son-in-law, the widow Xue's family, and the nephew Huang's family."

"There are only a group of women left in the Wang family, a son-in-law with a ninth-rank strength, two house slaves, two guards, and five men. Now the pressure to defend the city is very high. The county magistrate is going to conscript again in three days. This time not only need to search for food, There is still a certain quota of militia, which can allow the Wang family to send out six to seven people."

"In this case, the men of the Wang family, including the son-in-law, will go to the city wall to defend the city. If the son-in-law is not sensible enough to hand over the two houses, he can find a reason to murder him, and he can bring a collaborator along the way. If you don't believe that the remaining women of the royal family are ignorant."

"If you are still not sensible, the three of us brothers will have fun. I heard that the second miss and wife of the Wang family are both great beauties."

"As for the widow Xue's family, she escaped the catastrophe because she visited and spent the night at the house of a close friend in her boudoir. The whole family was robbed and she was the only one left. This woman is too ignorant."

"I wanted to leave her a small house to enjoy the rest of her life, but I never thought that this woman wanted to claim all the property at home. Now the deeds and other things have been suppressed in the yamen. I will find a chance to become a drug addict. Throw the unlucky bastard on the bed, let's start to catch rape again."

"Soaking in a pig cage and willingly handing over her family fortune, this widow must be able to tell the difference."

"As for the Huang family's nephews, they were all thrown on the city wall to defend the city. If they are not sensible, they will all be killed, and they will be called collaborators."

Inside the room, there was a gloomy look in the eyes of a ninth-rank police officer.

"Okay, let's do that."

"After three days, I will go to Wang's and Huang's houses to pick up people. As for Widow Xue, I will arrange it in the next few days and try to make it as beautiful as possible."

The county magistrate's brother-in-law Liu Butou said.

……

Three days in a flash!
These few days Wang Chunxiao was in a bad mood, he called the maids into the room several times, but they were not satisfied, he couldn't choose a new room, Xichun was also quite worried these few days.

Every time the lady chooses a housemate, she never thinks about herself. This matter must be discussed with the uncle. If the lady chooses another maid to be the housemate for the uncle, what should I do?
early morning.

"Only in the past three days, the price of meat at Zhou's market has increased fourteen times, regardless of food. It's like a robbery. If my uncle bought a batch three days ago, our family will eat bran and swallow vegetables in the future. Bar."

Liu Wenxiang looked at Su Yang quite relieved, and flaunted to Wang Chunxiao who was sitting beside him: "This is the vision of the Zhang family."

Wang Chunxiao frowned even deeper.

Is this your husband, or your husband?
"That's right, brother-in-law is the best. Xixia in my room has admired you for a long time."

Wang Xiahe's voice was sweet.

Wang Chunxiao's heart was full of jealousy, and he felt a little unappetizing for eating.

What's so good about color show?
While eating breakfast, the house slave came calling, saying that a group of arresting servants had come, Su Yang put down the bowls and chopsticks and rushed out, these little ghosts were the most difficult to deal with.

Outside the door, it was Liu Butou who I met in Yanggu County a few days ago, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Liu Butou came to the humble house, what's the matter?"

"The yamen announced that everyone must do their part to defend the city and protect the country. According to the situation of each household, the yamen has formulated the strength that each household needs to contribute."

"According to the roster in the yamen, the Wang family needs to send seven strong laborers to go to the city wall to defend against foreign enemies."

"Su Xiucai, hand it over!"

After Catcher Liu finished speaking, he took out the roster in his hand, and it really showed the food, money, labor and other things that each family needed to pay, and each family was different.

After Wang's family, it really says strong labor, seven people!
