Chapter 59 The advent of spiritual rice
The Song family is now living a prosperous life. Song Hailong has become the village leader, and the family has built a large house with three and a half rooms.

However, the whole family is in a dilemma as to whether or not this Malatang shop should reopen.

After the disaster, the government's relief grains were reduced again, and no one had enough to eat. What's the point of asking for more money? All the food shops in the city were gone.

It no longer matters whether food prices are high or not. The problem is that there is no market anymore, and you can’t buy it even if you have money!
The impact of the disaster cannot be recovered through recovery. Various industries such as breeding, agriculture, industry, and textiles have been greatly affected. The money paid by Song Hailong as the village chief is really not as good as the two stones of grain. It's affordable.

Therefore, if this store is opened, no matter how much money it makes, it will be useless. It is better not to open it.

Since the disaster, there are no restaurants in the county. The reason is that vegetables cannot be obtained, and meat is also difficult to obtain, so there is no way to operate.

Although farming is possible in today's climate, it is dangerous in the wild. Who dares to plant it? Even if it is planted, there is no guarantee that it will not be destroyed by wild beasts. The court has not found a solution in this regard.

Song Jinyue also secretly visited several main cities for this matter in the past few days, and found something interesting. There were still many shops in those main cities open, but what the consumers paid was not money, but orange rice grains.

She could clearly see that there was a trace of spiritual energy in that kind of rice. Even though this spiritual energy was very weak, it was still a good thing for martial arts practitioners and mystical cultivators.

This rice grain was introduced in the book as being produced in the Forbidden Realm, so she searched again in this new world and successfully discovered some of this plant.

However, the large area where spiritual rice grows has been monopolized by the royal family or large families. For ordinary people to find this grain of rice, they have to spend a lot of time looking for it.

"Second uncle, grandma, come here and take a look at these rice."

Song Jinyue scattered a few rice grains in her hand into the bowl and called her family over.

"Where did this rice come from? It feels a little different?"

Song Haitao picked up a grain of rice, threw it into his mouth, chewed it for a few times and then swallowed it. He felt a stream of fresh air flowing along the internal organs and flowing into the limbs and veins.

But in just a moment, the feeling was gone.

"It's good stuff!"

He couldn't be more sure.

Mrs. Song originally wanted to say that there was something delicious about uncooked rice, but seeing Song Jinyue's serious expression, she didn't blame Song Haitao.

"This is Lingmi!"

Finally, someone knowledgeable spoke up. Song Hailong picked up a grain of rice, obviously having seen this thing before.

"The Xuan cultivators in the city receive this kind of salary."

He also discovered it accidentally. He went to the county government yesterday to collect his monthly salary, and saw that this was among the things received by the mysterious cultivators. He also listened to their conversation, so he knew about this thing.

"That means that this real money will be of no use in the future!"

Mrs. Song fell into deep thought.

"So, if our Malatang shop continues to operate, we can't use money to trade."

In today's world, real gold and silver can basically be declared obsolete. Of course, those who love beauty do not exclude those who love the decorations made of these things, but the ultimate value is limited to this.

"So, in my opinion, it's just a grain of spiritual rice for a bowl of noodles."

Song Jinyue's price was considered reasonable. One grain of spiritual rice in the city was worth two kilograms of ordinary grain.

"How to get the pig bones?" Mrs. Song had been asking about this for several days, but no butcher shop had opened in the county. The meat dishes used in the previous banquets were pheasants shot at home.

"This is easy to do. We can use pheasant to make soup, and the taste will be the same."

Song Jinyue said with a smile, "It's time for the archery that my second uncle and my younger uncle have been practicing these days to come in handy."

Considering the safety of the whole family, Song Hailong and Song Haitao practiced archery for a while. They did not dare to think about large prey, but some pheasants could still be easily captured.

"Okay, let's use chicken soup!"

Song Hailongnao tasted chicken noodle soup, and it felt good.

The problems of making noodle soup and collecting money have been solved, and there are no worries anymore. The family is ready to start business.

Song Jinyue originally thought that if she used spiritual rice to settle the bill, the business would not be very good, but she didn't know that on the first day of opening, after the chicken bones were cooked, it immediately attracted a lot of people.

People in rural areas don't know about spiritual rice, but people with a little status in the county town don't know that many people can still afford to exchange a grain of rice for a bowl of noodles.

In addition, many restaurants and restaurants in Long'an County are now closed. Looking at the entire Long'an County, their spicy hotpot can be said to be unique.

The business of the noodle shop is very good, but the wild vegetables that go with the noodles can no longer be supplied by just relying on the whole family.

This time, the Song family collected vegetables at the previous price, and it was obvious that no one was willing to change.

There are many risks in digging vegetables in the wild. No one would like to work hard to dig a pound of vegetables, only to exchange them for copper plates that are obviously useless.

"Grandma, how much food does our family have?"

Song Jinyue did not avoid Huang Chuchu and asked directly.

Mrs. Song took out a piece of paper, which recorded the amount of grain she had saved before: "Four costs twelve cents per catty, and you can buy two thousand catties; rice costs ten cents per catty, and you can buy one thousand catties; corn costs seven cents per catty, and you can buy one thousand catties of corn. Buy one thousand catties of potatoes; buy five hundred catties of potatoes for four cents a catty; buy ten thousand catties of sorghum for three cents a catty; buy twenty thousand catties of salt..."

This was the first time Song Jinyue looked at this list. She really bought a lot of grain. She bought [-] kilograms of sorghum rice. These two uncles were really ruthless. This sorghum rice alone was enough to feed the family for several years.

Today is the tenth day since she settled in Mingyue Village and opened a store. Song Jinyue calculated that she didn't eat much at home. The main consumption of opening the store was flour. There was so much other food that she couldn't finish it in a short time.

"Take all these [-] kilograms of sorghum rice and exchange them for wild vegetables. Two kilograms of wild vegetables will be exchanged for one kilogram of sorghum rice!"

After giving the blank paper to Mrs. Song, Song Jinyue went to greet the guests, leaving a few people in the kitchen staring.

"Then, let's do it!"

Mrs. Song thought for a moment. The second son is now the village leader, and the court distributes a lot of food every month. They really can't eat the food they save. It's a good idea to take it out and exchange it for vegetables!

"Mom, we actually have so much food stored at home!"

Huang Chuchu was a little confused. Of course she knew there was food at home, but she didn't expect there to be so much.

However, with so much food, you need a lot of space!
"Ok!"

Mrs. Song only responded and said nothing else. She didn't treat her as an outsider, she just felt that she really couldn't talk about this matter with her.

She also knew that this might make the other person feel uncomfortable, but she had no other choice but to turn around and ask her second child to be more considerate and considerate.
