Chapter 44 South Street

Watching the train leave, Li Dongyang turned to Feng Huaying and said, "Where is my sister-in-law going? Do you want to go back by car or go shopping? I'll see you off?"

They didn't meet when they came, so Li Dongyang thought they came by car. The train station was not close to the station. As Lao Ji's brother, he couldn't just throw his wife here.

"No, you are busy with your work, we can go back by ourselves." Feng Huaying directly refused, "We still have something to do, so I won't waste your time."

Although he is Ji Weihe's brother, but she is only seeing him for the first time, how can she bother him with a trivial matter, let alone she doesn't need it at all, they come in a carriage, and they can go wherever they want without being tired.

"Yes, Brother Li, go and do your work. We are here driving a carriage, so you don't have to worry." Feng Huajian added.

Li Dongyang was surprised from the bottom of his heart, "The carriage?"

Can anyone still have a carriage in this day and age?

It can’t be said that a family cannot raise horses, but when people can’t get enough to eat, where can they get feed for the horses? I heard that this sister-in-law’s family is just an ordinary farmer. How did they do it?
Li Dongyang had doubts in his heart, but he didn't ask, he just said bluntly: "That's fine, I'll leave first, there are still some things in the bureau."

In the three years of famine, there were countless incidents of vandalism and looting. Now that life is at the junction between despair and hope, these incidents are not necessarily less, which makes people feel anxious.

It's not a homicide case without a clue, but it's also a headache. He came out today to sneak out of his busy schedule, and he doesn't know if the bureau has become a mess now.

Fortunately, as long as we pass through this transitional stage, we will be freed soon.

Feng Huaying and Feng Huajian came to the station gate to watch the car, and gave the old man who watched the car a penny.

"Thank you uncle."

"No, no, it should be." The uncle smiled and collected the penny, "Young man, your horse is well-raised and energetic!"

Feng Huajian accepted it cheerfully. Feng Huaying entered the carriage shed and sat on the shaft, "Where shall we go first?"

People around who also came to see off relatives and friends at the train station were all envious of Feng Huaying. Most of them came here on their legs. What kind of person's family conditions are so good.

Just now I saw a young man driving away in a car, and I felt really uncomfortable. He can drive around at a young age, so why are they not as good as others.

Now I see a man and a woman driving a carriage who are also very young, almost envious, thinking: Why doesn't their family have this condition.

Those who are older than them think: living such an old age is not as good as two young people, those years have been wasted.

But these have nothing to do with Feng Huaying, she lifted the curtain: "Let's go to South Street first."

They came to the county today not only to send Ji Weihe away, but also to inspect the market.

The current situation of their family is no longer suitable for living together. There are too many people and the place is too small. When you grow up, it will not be suitable to live together in a few years.

Although it is possible to make do with it, it is not good after all.

Given the chance to live better, who wouldn't want to live in a room by themselves?

But the family lives separately, and even their family has to borrow money to build the house. How many years will it take to pay off the debts and the famine?

What's more, in the past three years, every household has a little money left in order to survive.

Those whose conditions are considered good in their family are almost hollowed out, let alone other people, there are only a few who can borrow money from them.

It is a fantasy to save enough money on that one-third of an acre of land. I don't know how many years it will take to realize it.

So after finishing all the farm work at home, Feng Huaying thought about it for a long time after Feng Huaying's marriage became clear. After Feng Huaying came back from Ji Weihe's house yesterday, he asked her to discuss this matter and see if he could come to the city to do some business. Earn more money and lighten the burden on the family.

His thoughts coincided with Feng Huaying's. She also thought about this issue. It was not appropriate to talk about it in the past three years, but now that the situation has improved, it is time to do something.

It is now 61 years. Five years later, the parallel world she lives in does not know whether it will experience the same chaotic era as the world in her previous life. However, according to some things that have happened, although there are some differences, the general journey is similar. Perhaps in the near future, tense situations will come.

At that time, it would be too late to start some business, and they could only plan food in the fields. If the family's conditions were to improve, they had to take advantage of the fact that the situation had not completely deteriorated in the past few years.

The two hit it off right away, without discussing it with their family members. They thought about first seeing how the market was doing, what business to do, and then going back to talk about it.

And South Street is the location of the county's market. It is two streets away from the county government, and people come to the market every six days. It is the largest trading place in the county besides the supply and marketing cooperative.

When we arrived at South Street, the market hadn't left yet.

Ji Weihe's train left early in the morning, and it's only after eight o'clock now, and there are still many people.

Feng Huaying got out of the carriage. There was no one watching the carriage, so they had to lead it by themselves.

From Feng Huaying's point of view, this market is really sluggish, there are few people, and there are only dozens of stalls in an alley hundreds of meters away. Things like food are rare, let alone meat.

But for Feng Huajian, it was very lively and bustling, "There are so many people."

"It's not bad." Feng Huaying and the others led the horses and attracted many people's attention when they walked on the road, but they stopped paying attention after seeing it.

Slow down, these dishes are gone, and there is no time to see others.

These things are very expensive, and the people who pay for them are very heartbroken, but they have to reluctantly buy them.

There was a seller of old hens, the old hens were skinny and skinny, at most two catties, maybe not even two catties, but one was sold for five yuan, the buyer bargained: "You are stealing money, old hen Fifty cents a catty, does your chicken cost two catties? There are no robbers like you."

But he saw the old hen's eyes glowing green, and he held the chicken wings tightly with his hands, wishing he could swallow the old hen right away.

"That was in the past, can it be compared with the past now? You go to find out who still has old hens? In the past three years, my family is not willing to eat it. It is hard to raise it to the present. If it is not for the family, it is too much If I can't go on, how can I take it out and sell it!

Is this an old hen I'm selling?I'm selling the lives of my family! "

The owner of the stall is a thin and skinny woman, and she is about to snatch the old hen: "You think it's expensive, some people are willing to pay this price, don't waste my time if you don't buy it, some people want to buy it."

As soon as he said this, several people waiting beside the man also immediately said: "That's right, don't get out of the way, I'll buy it."

"I came first, I bought first."

"Don't grab it, obviously I saw it first."

"It's five dollars, I bought it."

"You are not kind, what kind of trouble are you making, go away."

Those people actually quarreled over an old hen, wishing they could fight to buy it.

I haven't seen minced meat in three years, and the oil and water in my intestines are gone. I finally saw a chicken seller, how could I miss it.

Three years have passed, and many people have lived a miserable life, but some people still have a lot of money. What they lack is not money, but food!

But the man pulled him even tighter, but he didn't let go, and the woman raised eyebrows immediately: "Let go, you still want to rob me, be careful, I will send you to the police station, and put you in prison."

The man was nervous: "No, no, I'll buy it, I'll buy it."

I didn't dare to dislike the expensive old hen anymore, so I hurriedly spent money and ran away holding the old hen I finally bought.

Feng Huajian couldn't bear to look directly at it, so what?
Why are the people in the city not as good as those in the countryside, and how can they be as hungry as they are?
Immediately Feng Huajian said excitedly: "How about we get some vegetables to sell?"

With such a high vegetable price, you can earn a lot of money by selling it a few more times, maybe you can make a small fortune.
