The salted fish life of the lucky wife

Chapter 457 Chapter 457

240 yuan, in exchange for 150 catties of sorghum, [-] catties of millet, [-] catties of buckwheat, [-] catties of soybeans and mung beans, [-] catties of corn, and [-] catties of dried cowpea and vermicelli.

A total of seven hundred catties of coarse grains!
These grains are shared among 34 households, and the amount of grain distributed to each family can sustain everyone for a period of time.

As long as this half month is over, the potatoes will be harvested in the middle and early July, and the famine will be buffered by then.

Of course, it is thanks to Huanhuan's help that he can buy so many coarse grains at such a favorable price.

If she hadn't introduced the two little brothers, he wouldn't have been able to find so many ways to buy food.

"Come back! The captain is back!"

Ever since the captain went to the town with the bullock cart, the hearts of the villagers seemed to have drifted away. Everyone didn't have any thoughts all day long, and looked towards the entrance of the village from time to time.

It's no wonder everyone paid so much attention to it, but the two baskets of ginseng were their only hope, and they hoped to sell some more money so that the captain and the others could buy more food.

As time passed, until noon, there was no sign of the ox cart, which undoubtedly made the villagers even more anxious, not only worried that they would not be able to sell at a good price, but also worried that they would not be able to buy food.

And anxiously waiting until four o'clock in the afternoon, everyone hadn't seen the captain and the others return, so everyone came to the entrance of the village to wait.

Now, when they saw the captain and the others returning, everyone surrounded them excitedly.

Although the bullock cart was covered by the sackcloth, it was obvious from the pointed shape that there were a lot of things piled up. Now, the villagers became even more excited.

Qi Zhongkang understood everyone's mood, raised his bullwhip and shouted loudly, "Okay, don't block the bullock carts, everyone go to the courtyard dam of the village committee office to get food, don't worry, everyone has a share!"

Hearing this, the crowd instantly became excited and restless!

"Thank God, our family has food to eat."

"Great, there are food points."

"See? This ox cart is fully loaded, there must be a lot of grain."

"Then there's no need to say, this ox cart can hold six or seven hundred catties no matter what."

A group of people happily followed the bullock cart, discussing happily, but their eyes were fixed on the bullock cart, and their smiles could not be stopped.

When the ox cart stopped at the courtyard dam of the village committee office, almost all the villagers rushed over.

Qi Zhongkang also knew that everyone must be very anxious after waiting for a day, and he didn't plan to go around in circles for everyone, and directly reported today's results.

"My mother! Two yuan a catty? It's so expensive!"

"More than 200 yuan, I have never seen so much money in my life."

"Well, I didn't expect this sand ginseng to be so valuable."

"Hey, our family ate more than two catties of sand ginseng today. Wouldn't it cost five yuan for a meal? My mother, I'm going to faint~"

"It's a long life, my family ate up five catties of sand ginseng today, my heart~"

"Captain, I still have five catties at home, is there still time to sell them?"

After hearing Qi Zhongkang's narration, the whole village unanimously ignored the matter of the [-] catties of coarse miscellaneous grains exchanged, and instead focused on the fact that the sand ginseng was sold for two yuan per catty.

Two dollars!

This can buy a lot of things.

At first they were able to keep five catties for their own food, because they thought it was Huanhuan's intention to help everyone, so they wanted to taste it anyway. Secondly, they guessed that the sand ginseng would only sell for eighty or nine cents at most, at most It's only one dollar a day.

Can the most expensive be more expensive than pork?
In addition, Huanhuan also said that this medicinal material is good for the body and can nourish the body, so everyone left five catties, thinking that everyone's body has suffered a lot in the past two months, so they saved some to make up for it. Make up.

Who knows, this sand ginseng can be worth two yuan.

In an instant, people who have eaten a lot of sand ginseng today feel heartbroken!
What they eat is food, obviously money! !
Five catties of sand ginseng, that is ten yuan. Before the famine, they could not earn ten yuan even if they worked for a month.

Everyone regretted and wished they could take out the ginseng they ate.

Seeing this scene, Qi Zhongkang also couldn't laugh or cry.

Aren't they all thinking about food?Now that the food has been exchanged, everyone's focus is obviously not on the food on the bullock cart.

"Okay, now we're queuing up to distribute food!"

The captain let out a roar, and immediately turned everyone's attention back!
That's right, they are going to distribute the food, and they almost forgot the business.

So, everyone lined up honestly.

But when they saw the grain on the bullock cart, everyone had to rejoice. Fortunately, they didn't leave all the sand ginseng at home to eat as coarse grain. Now at least there is so much grain to share.

This is a fortune in misfortune.

Suddenly, everyone experienced ups and downs of sadness and joy.

But at the moment of receiving the food, everyone felt extremely joyful from the bottom of their hearts, with bright smiles on their faces.

In the end, everyone is happy!
Qin Tianru, who was standing in the open space beside him, looked at the scene in front of him with a look of joy.

Still full of hope!

　Good night~
