report!The farm kidnapped me

Chapter 30
Shanglin Street.

"Young master, you'd better go elsewhere. We really can't spare any food."

Shopkeeper Shang looked at the monk standing in front of his shop and persuaded him in a good voice.

"You're standing here, aren't you making it difficult for me? There are so many refugees now, and there is only so much food, and I'm afraid it won't be enough to feed the people here."

The young monk looked at the shopkeeper in front of him, hesitantly not knowing how to speak.

The shopkeeper in front of them is someone they usually deal with. After all, there are so many people in the temple, and they also need to chew.

This shopkeeper is usually quite easy to talk to, but now...

"Junior brother! Go to Shopkeeper Jian in Qingping Lane quickly. Shopkeeper Jian has promised to give us food."

Jiyuan arrived in a hurry and felt uncomfortable when he saw his junior brother standing awkwardly in front of the shopkeeper.

At this moment, he felt that Jian Zhizhi's plan was quite relieved.

So he quickly raised his voice to greet his junior brother and looked at the shopkeeper with some pride.

"Don't worry, shopkeeper. Shopkeeper Jian from Qingping Lane promised to give us twenty bags of rice, so we won't bother you now."

"Is what senior brother said true?"

After hitting the wall several times, the young monk suddenly heard some good news. The young monk still couldn't believe it.

Jieyuan turned his head to look at his junior brother who was looking surprised, and nodded seriously.

Jiejie: ​​"It's true. You go and help a few senior brothers deliver food back, and I'll inform the other senior brothers."

"That shopkeeper Jian is such a good person! Buddha will bless her."

Shopkeeper Shang:...

At this time, that little girl in Qingping Lane gave so much food to these people? !

He hadn't recovered from the shock, and his face turned livid when he heard the words "Jie Jie".

Jie Jie: "Go quickly, I would like to remind the people around here that if you want to stock up on some food, it is better to buy it here than shopkeeper Jian.

Although the price of food at Shopkeeper Jian's place has also increased, it only costs twenty cents per catty, which is ten cents cheaper than the thirty cents here. "

Twenty words!
That girl must be here specifically to grab business.

Shopkeeper Shang regretted why he forgot to say hello to the little girl.

With the lessons learned from the past and Jie Yuan saying that Jian Zhizhi also gave them [-] bags of rice, the young monk didn't feel anything bad when he heard that the price of Jian Zhizhi's rice had also increased.

The young monk left, and the shopkeeper Shang congratulated Jiejie in a decent manner:
"Those common people have their own destiny. With the help of living Bodhisattvas like you, and the help of that little girl, they will definitely be able to get through this."

Jieyuan glanced at Shopkeeper Shang with hesitation on his face.

Shopkeeper Shang pretended not to see the change in his expression, but instead made a tentative sound:
"Things have turned around, why is the young master still looking so embarrassed?"

Could it be that the twenty bags of rice are not enough and you want to get some more from him?

This can't be done!

The expression on Shopkeeper Shang's face gradually disappeared, and before Jieyuan could speak, he took the initiative to ask:
"But shopkeeper Jian doesn't have much food on hand?"

If this is the case, then we can find a way to help her and let her close down as soon as possible.

A pound of rice costs twenty cents, and he can make a profit of ten cents by selling it here.

As time goes by, maybe it will rise even more!
Jiyuan was immediately shocked and looked at him in disbelief, as if wondering how the shopkeeper could guess right.

Jiyuan also felt a little complicated. Even though he hadn't said anything yet, the shopkeeper had thought so much.

From the look on his face, he seemed to have taken the bait.

Jiejie put away her complicated feelings and left quickly:

"The young monk wants to remind other senior brothers, so he won't stay at the shopkeeper's place."

After saying quit grudges, he left without stopping at all.

He didn't lie, he really wanted to remind those brothers.

With Jian Zhina's twenty bags of grain as a base, there was no need for them to waste time with those shopkeepers.

Shopkeeper Shang looked at Jie Yuan who was leaving in a hurry, and his back seemed to mean he was running away.Shopkeeper Shang called for a waiter from his shop, "Xiaosi, come here."

Xiao Si walked up to Shopkeeper Shang happily and asked proactively:

"Shopkeeper, please look for me."

Shopkeeper Shang: "Go to Qingping Lane and ask around to see if the price of rice there is lower than here."

"okay."

The remaining 2795 kilograms of rice in Jian Zhizhi's backyard warehouse was barely collected into forty bags of seventy kilograms each. It was enough to move a little from other bags.

The error is so small that the shopkeepers shouldn't be able to tell it.

She stopped after dragging ten bags into the shop and slightly filling the rice that had been taken away.

Don't take out too much at once, as it would be bad if you scare the people who come to 'buy' the goods.

At this time, not counting the twelve bags of rice promised to Huguo Temple, there were still 27 bags of rice in her shop.

After Jian Zhizhi finished dragging the rice, he saw that no one had come, so he went to collect the grain.

She is definitely not as efficient as Qingsheng and others, but if she can collect a little bit, it might come in handy next time.

He was guarding the shop and saw a junior fellow apprentice running over, so he asked him to carry two bags of rice back first.

"Brother Beware, why are you guarding here? Isn't Shopkeeper Jian here? Is it okay for us to take the food?"

Wary: "The shopkeeper is in the backyard. You can carry it back with peace of mind. These are what the shopkeeper promised us."

"That's it. Then I'll send two bags back first."

Jie Xin nodded and helped him carry two bags on his shoulders.

When Xiaosi came over, he saw the monk's back carrying the rice and leaving.

He didn't act rashly, but asked around the shops.

The man heard his curiosity, shook his head and sighed:

"I've already carried ten bags. Shopkeeper Jian really doesn't know how to make a living."

Good food was taken away in vain.

After all, it’s the little girl’s family, and I can’t wipe that face off.

Xiao Si rolled his eyes and continued to inquire:

"I heard that the price of food here has increased to twenty cents per catty."

The man looked surprised, has the price increased?

Could it be that the situation outside is already serious?

Otherwise, why would the price increase at this time?

"I haven't heard of this."

The man's tone was more uneasy. Did those monks say something to Jian Zhizhi?
When Xiaosi heard this, he didn't ask any more questions, but took the initiative to go to Jian Zhizhi's shop.

"Is the shopkeeper here?"

Xiaosi poked his head into the shop, but saw only a monk, and hesitated for a moment.

When Jie Xin saw him, he took the initiative to ask:
"Does the donor want to buy rice?"

When he asked this question, Jie Xin was also looking at Xiaosi.

Jian Zhizhi explained before going in that if ordinary people came to buy rice, they would still pay eight cents per pound;
If someone with ulterior motives comes over, the price will be twenty cents per catty.

The person in front of me...

Xiaosi looked surprised when he heard this, "Why are you entertaining guests here, young master?
Why isn't shopkeeper Jian here?

I heard that rice here only costs [-] cents per catty. Is it true or false? "
