Lucky Wife at 50s

   Chapter 141 141, the return of the squad

   At five o'clock in the afternoon, all the roofs were covered. The people who came to help were all quick-handed, diligent, and honest. The work that can be done today will never be delayed until tomorrow.

Not long after the    helpers left, Qi Han came back.

   "How is it? Have all the people who went out shopping come back?"

  Although his family is not worried about food, Qi Yuanhua is still very concerned about this matter.

   Qi Han sighed slightly, "At present, the situation is not very good."

   "What's the matter? Could it be that no one can buy food?" Shen Yuerong asked curiously.

   Qin Tianru changed clothes and came to the main room. She spent the afternoon dealing with the land, making her whole body covered in mud. Just after she finished washing, she learned that her brother Han had returned.

   Hearing their conversation, she did not interrupt, but sat quietly beside Qi Han and listened.

  Qi Han explained, "That's not true, there are still a few people who bought food, but the amount is not much, not even a hundred catties in total."

   Hearing this answer, everyone was surprised!

   sent so many people out, and also distributed to different places to purchase, and now the total amount of food purchased is less than 100 catties? !

   This number was completely beyond their expectations.

  What is the use of one hundred catties of grain? There are thousands of people in the Victory Production Brigade. How many people are there evenly?

   What's more, it's less than 100 pounds. It is estimated that even a child can't eat enough.

   Qi Han added, "But there are still three groups of people who can't come back tomorrow. How much food depends on the remaining three groups of people."

   "Hey, I don't think there is much hope." Qi Yuanhua sighed, looking frowning.

   He didn't have much hope for the three groups of people who came back tomorrow. The large army that came back today only added up to more than 80 catties of food. How much can the three groups of people bring back tomorrow?

  Shen Yuerong comforted, "Isn't there still Huanhuan they brought back the wheat seedlings, at least our brigade still has a way back, as long as the seeds continue, then our brigade will not be completely out of food."

   Qin Tianru had expected this result for a long time, so when he heard the news, he was not too surprised.

   "Brother Han, what's going on outside now?"

   Qi Han's eyes moved slightly, but his family Huanhuan asked the point.

   "I heard from the people who came back that the counties and towns around us are in chaos now. It is estimated that everyone has heard the wind and bought food like crazy without money. Now the price of food is skyrocketing."

   I don't know if it was affected by his own rebirth, Qi Han felt that the time for the famine to break out in this life was ahead of schedule.

   Now even the people in small places have heard the wind, and it makes no sense that the provincial capital would not know about it.

   But this is also good. The earlier it erupts, the more people will be able to prepare in advance. Although there is chaos outside now, it is better than more people starved to death.

   Hearing this, everyone was silent again, especially Qi Qing and Qi Jun, with a look of panic on their faces.

   The two brothers and sisters lived in a relatively simple circle since childhood, and they never encountered any setbacks or hardships. For them, it was unimaginable that someone would starve to death because they had no food to eat.

  So hearing the news that the eldest brother brought back at this moment, the sister and brother are a little uneasy, and they are very worried that one day their family will also run out of food.

   Qi Han saw that the atmosphere in the room was very sluggish, and quickly took out two letters from his pocket to adjust everyone's mood.
