Dragging the family to flee famine?Don't be afraid, I have room to fill the granary

Chapter 79: Those who have food are uncles

Of course, it's not that she didn't think about handing over the food to Nangong Ye, so that she can ignore everything.

But if the food is handed over to him, her space will definitely be exposed to him.

Due to his identity, even if he won't betray her, she doesn't want to let him know the existence of her golden finger too early.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, Tao Qiqi explained some matters to the two captains, left Xiao Hei behind, and went down the mountain to drive her carriage to Nanyang City.

As soon as he returned to the small courtyard, he saw Nangong Ye preparing to go out.

Tao Qiqi naturally knew what he was going to do, but he didn't know the existence of Shan Lei and the others, so Tao Qiqi pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "What? Going out again?"

Nangong Ye nodded: "Well, Lord Yang just sent someone over to say that someone wanted to sell us some grain, but he was worried that there might be some problems, so he asked me to follow along."

"Then do you want me to go over and help?" Tao Qiqi said as she put down the pannier on her back, and handed the hare to Fang Yu.

"No, we agreed to do the transaction outside the city, and those people shouldn't dare to cheat."

After hearing this, Tao Qiqi said deliberately: "Then what if the people over there deliberately want to lure you out of the city? No, I think it's safer for me to go with you."

Seeing that Tao Qiqi had said so, Nangong Ye finally had no choice but to agree with Tao Qiqi to go with her.

Then Chang Wu and the others stayed, and Tao Qiqi followed him out of the city.

After arriving outside the city, before Fu An and the others showed up, Master Yang began to walk up and down worriedly.

Seeing this, Tao Qiqi couldn't help but said: "Master Yang, stop walking back and forth, it makes me dazzled."

Master Yang looked at Tao Qiqi with a little embarrassment and smiled, then stopped and looked around for a while, but when he still didn't see the food delivery team, he started pacing back and forth again.

In the end, Tao Qiqi had no choice but to shake her head helplessly.

Seeing that the moon was hanging high, based on the time at this time, it would probably be Haishi, and it would be about half an hour before Fu An delivered the food.

At this time, Tao Qiqi suddenly regretted that she had to follow, knowing that there was a gap between the time agreed by the two parties, she followed without having dinner. Isn't this just looking for hunger?

Now the hungry chest sticks to the back, and drowsiness is also found.

Seeing Mr. Yang anxious like an ant on a hot pot, Tao Qiqi suddenly couldn't bear it anymore.

But at that time, she also wanted to take the initiative to sell food, so naturally she couldn't just bring it to you, and she couldn't let the other party wait and let the other party know that although I took the initiative, I am not easy to talk or provoke.

Looking at Master Yang who was in a hurry, Tao Qiqi thought for a while, in order to relieve Master Yang's anxiety, she had to use chatting to divert everyone's attention.

"Master Yang, when is the time agreed upon by the food delivery person?"

Master Yang looked at Tao Qiqi and replied: "The letter only said that the transaction was outside the city after the sun went down, and did not mention the specific time."

After Tao Qiqi heard this, she pretended to understand and nodded: "In this case, we can only wait and see. After all, we are going to buy their food. The time they agreed is obviously for us to wait. It seems that these people are afraid Not so easy to talk about."

After listening to Tao Qiqi's words, Mr. Yang couldn't help snorting: "Hmph, isn't this normal? Nowadays, those who have food are all uncles. Not only are they not easy to talk to, but they are also not easy to provoke. By the way, those people in a while If it really comes, we can just buy food, and don’t say anything or ask anything else.”

Tao Qiqi nodded, raised the corners of her mouth and replied: "Understood."

After the words fell, Nangong Ye's voice sounded: "They are here."

As soon as he heard these four words, Lord Yang immediately cheered up and looked at the food delivery team.

Before Master Yang could be happy, Nangong Ye's voice sounded again: "Master Yang, you said those people asked you to bring 1000 taels of silver, didn't they tell you how much food it was?"

Master Yang shook his head and replied, "I didn't say anything. I thought to myself, even with the current grain price, 1000 taels can buy more than 3 catties of grain."

"More than 3 kilograms of grain is true, but..." Nangong Ye didn't continue at this point.

"But what?" Mr. Yang looked anxious.

"It's nothing, I'm just a little confused. If it's more than 3 catties of grain, transportation is not a trivial matter, but they are just a few people driving the carriage. Even some carriages are not driven by anyone, so it can be said that they will not come. Only 20 people."

"Less than 20 people!" Master Yang looked shocked, and immediately began to suspect that there must be fraud. "That, we"

"Master Yang, don't worry, since they have come, let's see what tricks they want to play."

After hearing Nangong Ye's words, Master Yang immediately told everyone: "Everyone cheer me up and be smarter for a while."

"Yes." All the guards agreed in unison.

Soon Fu An led a group of people and successfully delivered the food to Master Yang.

Master Yang was even more nervous when he saw the group of people in full armor.

But Fu An didn't take it seriously at all, got out of the carriage, and then said to Mr. Yang coldly: "We have already delivered the food, Mr. Yang, did you bring any money?"

Although Lord Yang was nervous, he was still a magistrate. After calming down his nervous heart, he replied slowly: "Of course I brought the money, but we need to check the food before giving you the money."

After hearing Master Yang's words, Fu An didn't speak, but turned sideways to motion for Master Yang to check at will.

Upon seeing this, Lord Yang motioned for the people below to check.

Not long after, the inspector came back and informed us that there was nothing wrong with the food on the carriage.

After Mr. Yang's people had finished reporting, Fu An spoke again slowly: "This time the grain totals [-] catties. Among them, [-] catties are a new kind of grain called potatoes, which can be used as a staple food for roasting. Come to eat, cook to eat, or cut into pieces and cook with rice to make porridge. It can also be fried and eaten as a vegetable. In addition, if Master Yang can find an open space, you can also plant it. This is the method of planting potatoes."

Fu An said as he took out a piece of paper from his arms, which was written by Tao Qiqi on how to grow potatoes.

After receiving the note, Mr. Yang stared at it for a long time under the moonlight, maybe due to his age, he still didn't see a single word clearly in the end.

Reluctantly, Master Yang had no choice but to hand over the note to Nangong Ye, and he took out the prepared money and handed it to Fu An to count.

There is no problem with the money, Fu An nodded.

Master Yang signaled his people to start carrying the grain to their own carriage.

There are many people and speed is fast. In less than half a cup of tea, all the food was transferred to the carriage.

Seeing this, Fu An nodded to Master Yang again, and then disappeared into the night with the team.

When they got to the foot of the mountain, Xiao Hei appeared in front of them, and Fu An led someone to watch out. Xiao Hei put all the carriages, including the 1000 taels of silver he had just obtained from selling grain, into the space warehouse, and after greeting Fu An, he went Go after Shan Lei's team.

And Fu An led his team back to the cave again and continued to practice martial arts.
