The second generation of immortals fled famine in ancient times and engaged in infrastructure constr

Chapter 29
Yanmen City is square as a whole, with 40 gates in total. A main road is located on the central axis of the city, with a width of [-] meters. , and went to Yanxuanmen via Qingjie.

There are also two streets in the north-south direction, one is on the east side, from Xuanhua Gate to Chenqiao Gate, and the other is on the west side, from Dailou Gate to Ansu Gate.

There are also two direct streets in the east-west direction. They are Xinzheng Gate on the south side leading to Xinsong Gate, and Wansheng Gate on the north side leading to Xincao Gate. Both are 25 meters wide.

Wen Yu and the others passed by Nanxun Gate.

Wen Yu swaggered into the city in front of the guards, and Wen Yu didn't withdraw the breathing formula all the way.

Not only that, she made a disguise, changed the details of her face with the illusion, fine-tuned the facial features, and her skin was rougher. Now she looks only beautiful, but not as white and fat as before, like a heavenly man.

As soon as you enter the city, there is a spacious street with endless streams of pedestrians. On both sides are some teahouses, taverns, pawnshops, workshops, and there are many small vendors with sheds on the open space next to them. The characteristics of a large crowd.

It was still morning, and some breakfast stalls hadn't been removed yet, and a burst of fragrance wafted along the wind, arousing the gluttons in my stomach.

Wen Yu looked around and saw a series of stalls where hawkers in hemp shirts and sweat towels were busy, mutton, tripe, white sausage, fragrant fruit and kidney, chicken and duck, small wontons, big steamed buns
There are also shopkeepers hawking candy, utensils, noodles, etc., and the shouts and shouts come and go, with a special melody, catchy and brainwashing.

"Rice, millet, cow mung bean, porridge with white noodles --- pea buns wrapped in sugar!"

"It wasn't made by the eldest girl, nor was it embroidered by the second girl. It was the third girl who stepped on a flat peach while walking in the garden! Sweet and moist——"

"Le--the tall ones--persimmons--the ones that are not astringent--the astringent ones can be changed!"

"Honey, hey, hey, candied haws!"

Xiaobai couldn't help but jumped out of the basket and hung it on Wen Yu's shoulder. His big tail wrapped around Wen Yu's neck. From a distance, he thought it was a fur collar.

"Wen Yu. It smells so good."

Subtext: I really want to eat, you promised to eat whatever you want after you enter the city.

After eating light pancakes for more than ten days, Wen Yu swallowed when he smelled such a strong smell of meat, and fixed his eyes on various snacks.

"Don't worry, our task is to inquire about the prices of grain and mule carts in the city first, and we need to find a way to get some road guides. It's not before noon, so let's go around the grain stores first."

Wen Yu knows that food is easy to make mistakes, and he still has important tasks on his body, so he can't waste time on eating.

At least not now.

"Ok."

The light in Xiaobai's eyes disappeared, and he lowered his head sullenly, more like an open skin.

"How do you sell candied haws?"

Wen Yu mixed in the crowd and slowly withdrew the breath-holding formula so that his appearance would not be so obtrusive, and asked a peddler who sold candied haws.

"A string of five coins, girl, come for a string? My candied haws are sour and sweet, and they are recognized as delicious!"

"Two skewers."

Wen Yu took out ten Wen coins, counted them one by one and handed them to the shopkeeper.

She earned two hundred wen when she helped the village make wooden barrels, but Wei Xiaoman didn't take it and asked Wen Yu to keep it to buy something.

"By the way, sir, do you know where the grain store is?"

"Miss, do you want to buy grain? You can go to the Gujia grain store, which is at the intersection in front of you. His family will give you the most fair price."

"Thank you."

Saying goodbye to the shopkeeper, Wen Yu continued walking with two bunches of candied haws. The candied slices were crystal clear, and the hawthorns inside were plump and round, exuding a faint sweet and sour taste.

Xiaobai raised his head quietly when Wen Yu was chatting with the shopkeeper, glanced at the candied haws, and his big eyes gradually lit up.

"Here, both strings are yours."

Wen Yu handed one string to Xiao Bai, and held the other string in his hand first.

Xiaobai hugged the wooden stick with both paws, opened his mouth to bite off one first, then shrank obediently into the back basket, spitting out a hawthorn seed from time to time.

As we walked farther, the stalls on both sides gradually decreased, and inns, teahouses, restaurants and various department stores gradually increased.

Wen Yu saw the Gujia Grain Store that the salesman said was at the crossroads, and a clerk with a calm expression greeted the people who came to buy grain.

"How much do you want? Old rice is 250 Wen per bucket, new rice is 280 Wen per bucket, beans are 25 Wen per bucket, millet is 22 Wen per bucket."

The guy shook the sweat towel off his shoulders and raised his eyelids, wondering how much the little girl in front of him could buy.

Before Wen Yu came here, he had learned about grain prices from Mr. Xu and Village Chief Tian. In previous years, a bucket of rice was 100 renminbi, but this year, due to the severe drought and frequent wars, the price will inevitably rise.

Combining years of experience, Mr. Tian Cun gave the highest expectation of 310 essays.

Wen Yu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the price quoted by the buddy at this time. Then he thought, it should be that the flames of war have not yet spread to Yanmen City, and the impact on food prices here is relatively small.

Moreover, Village Chief Tian and others packed up their things and ran away in advance. According to him, in half a month, when the tax collection time comes, it is estimated that more people will flee the famine.

Food prices in Yanmen City will rise again.

Wen Yu left the Gu's Grain Store with the clerk's eyes saying "it's true", and then asked a few passers-by, and found several other grain stores, all of which were the same price, and one Gu's Grain Store even had a higher price .

Before coming, Second Xu helped to calculate the rations of everyone in the village for one month, and wrote the statistics on paper for Wen Yu to take with him.

As for the money given by each family, they are all put in the storage bag.

Wen Yu finally decided to buy the Gujia Grain Store, but not now, the amount she wanted was too large, so she had to make a reservation first, and then take it away when she left the city.

The Xu family has a large population, especially the eldest Xu's family, whose appetite is much larger than that of ordinary men. Calculated based on the three liters of a common labor eclipse, it would cost at least twelve shi to buy enough food for a month.

That is 25 taels, and you still buy old rice.

You know, in a stable year, ordinary people can save four or five taels a year!
This time the villagers were able to readily spend money to buy food, thanks to the bandits that night. The money harvested from them was at least 30 taels for each family, and the Xu family got a full 80 taels!
Therefore, apart from buying food, each family has other needs, such as seasoning, and smelling the aroma of Wei Xiaoman's cooking every day, they also want to taste the taste of the food with seasoning.

And salt, cloth, vegetables, and most importantly, mules!

He was the only one in Chen Datie's family, and he didn't spend much on food, so he gave Wen Yu 15 taels to help her buy a mule.

Some of the other families wanted to buy it individually, and some wanted to buy it together. After some hesitation, it was Mr. Tian who made the final decision and bought three more mules in the name of the public house. Under the witness, I wrote an IOU and handed it to Xu Laoer.

Therefore, after visiting the grain store, Wen Yu planned to check the prices of livestock later.

After turning around for a while, it was noon. Wen Yu looked to the side. The plaque of "Manxiang Building" was hung on the building plaque. The lobby was already full, and people kept coming in and out. It seemed that business was booming.

On the opposite side of a teahouse, the word "teahouse" is written on the square door plaque. The font is silver with iron hooks, and dragons and snakes are flying.

Standing on the street, I can vaguely hear the clap of the storyteller Xingmu in the teahouse, which is crisp and loud.

Beside the wooden table near the door, a dignified and free-spirited boy with a smile raised his tea cup in his hand and respected Wen Yu from a distance.

"Ms. An is being abrupt. If the girl doesn't mind, if you try this tea, you will definitely get something."

In the end, the four-character boy emphasized his tone, which seemed to be meaningful.
