Kuai Chuan: I don’t get along with my family’s golden finger.

"You've only been in the city for a while, so what can you tell!" Han's father immediately glared at Jiang Che after hearing this.

"Dad... most of the grain shops along the street are closed, and the few remaining ones are now crowded with people. You can tell at a glance." Seeing that Han's father didn't believe it, Jiang Che had to say again.

He wasn't telling lies, he started paying attention to these things as soon as he entered the city.

"That won't happen either..."

Father Han wanted to say something to refute Jiang Che, but was interrupted by the old patriarch.

"What Che'er said makes sense. I have also paid attention to this during this period. There are indeed many wealthy families in the city who have moved away from here. I heard that it is similar in Fucheng."

The old patriarch took another breath and sighed.

"Old patriarch, is this drought really that serious?"

Father Han may not believe Jiang Che, after all, he is too young, but he has [-]% trust in the old patriarch who has always had authority in the village, and he can't help but feel anxious now.

"I'm afraid it's more serious than we thought." The old patriarch shook his head.

"Then our village..." Father Han's face showed a hint of pain.

"The matter has not reached a desperate situation. Even if they say it, no one will believe it. They always hold on to a glimmer of hope." The old patriarch shook his head and said: "Zhuangzi, you should have noticed that although the grains in the fields are heading, they are all shriveled. Yes, there is no food at all.”

When talking about the food in the fields, the old patriarch's face couldn't help but look a little sad.

Food is the lifeblood of ordinary people like them. The grains in the fields are already heading, but not even a drop of rain has fallen this day. The crops in the fields are probably ruined.

Nowadays, not only every household in the village has run out of food, but there is not much left in the rice vat.

If the crops in the fields are gone, what will they eat in the future?

"If it doesn't rain this month, the crops in the fields will not be harvested, and escaping from famine will be the only way out. So I want to buy a carriage and make preparations while I have money now." Seeing this, Jiang Che continued to persuade. road.

"You have money now, so it's a good idea to prepare early." The old patriarch nodded after hearing this.

As soon as the old patriarch spoke, Father Han had no objection.

He also knew in his heart that if he really needed to escape, having a carriage would save him a lot of trouble.

My daughter was so young that she couldn't bear the hardship of escaping. With a carriage, at least she no longer had to walk.

Moreover, if they have a carriage, they can also buy more coarse grains from the city. If they bring more things when the time comes, they will be able to hold on longer.

The carriage is fast, and it might be possible to get to a safe place early.

So Father Han no longer objected.

The old patriarch was very familiar with the city. The three of them first went to a small restaurant to fill their stomachs with a bowl of noodles, and then went to the place where livestock was bought and sold.

After all, this is just a county town. Most of the livestock markets are cattle, donkeys or mules, but there really aren't many horses.

Not to mention a good horse.

Jiang Che and the other three looked around, but didn't see anything suitable.

To be precise, he fell in love with a horse with injuries and wanted to buy it, but the old patriarch and Father Han disagreed no matter what.

Jiang Che was also helpless about this.

He had the Spirit Tempering Secret Book and spiritual energy. Not to mention that the horse only injured its leg, he could save it even if it was half dead.

But people around him don't agree, so he can't be too tough.

What's more, he also knew that the reason why the old patriarch and Father Han disagreed was because horses were precious.

This horse costs nearly 20 taels of silver, and this is even if it is injured.

If it can be cured, it will be a profit, but if it cannot be cured, it will really cost 20 taels.

Han's father had worked hard for half his life and his family didn't have 20 taels of savings. How could he agree?

"Dad, I can really heal that horse's injury. When I went into the mountains, I found a bone-sucking grass and saw that the horse could still stand. The injury was not serious. The bone-sucking grass can heal it." Again. After looking around and seeing no other horses, Jiang Che said helplessly.

There were only a few horses in this livestock market. Except for the injured ones that he liked, they were all old horses.

These old horses are all skinny and skinny, and you can tell at a glance that they can't haul anything.

"Che'er, do you really have bone-breaking grass?" Before Father Han could say anything, the old patriarch became interested.

"Well, I found it in the woods when I was hunting deer, and it's at home now." Jiang Che nodded.

This is indeed true.

Sugucao is the name of several nearby villages, but they don't know what it is called outside.

But this kind of grass has miraculous effects on bone injuries. When many people break their legs or arms, their families will go into the mountains to find this kind of bone-repairing grass.

Basically, as long as it can be found, there will be no problem with the injury.

It’s just that there aren’t many bone-continuing grasses, so it’s good to find them once or twice out of ten times.

But it is undeniable that this bone-continuing grass has a miraculous effect in treating such broken bone injuries.

"Then buy it. I just saw it. The injury on the horse's leg is not serious. It can be cured with the bone-sustaining grass. It will be a good horse by then, and you can't buy it with 20 taels of silver." The old patriarch Said to Father Han.

Father Han had no intention of objecting when he heard that his son had the bone-continuing grass. Now that the old patriarch said the same, he nodded immediately.

So Jiang Che took the banknote and bought the horse with the injured leg.

In addition to the horse, Father Han also bought two donkeys.

If he was really preparing to escape, he couldn't just take care of himself. His parents and his eldest brother's family also had to take care of things.

It was okay if you didn't have money before, but now that you have money, you naturally have to think more about it.

Jiang Che had no objection to this.

He directly gave Han's father 100 taels in silver notes, saying that the 100 taels were a filial piety to his father.

It stands to reason that since he is not yet an adult, the money he earns should be given to his family.

But Jiang Che said that he wanted to buy a handy weapon, so he had to keep the money, so Father Han had no objection.

Anyway, the money is earned by his son. It is unthinkable to have 100 taels, and the other Han fathers are not greedy.

Besides, my son bought weapons for the safety of his family.

His son has become more powerful, and even if they have to escape, their safety is guaranteed. Nothing is more important than this.

After buying all the livestock, Jiang Che and the others went to the grain store and bought a few bags of grain.

Nowadays, the price of food has doubled. If it weren't for the fact that there was not much food at home, Han's father would really be reluctant to buy it.

It was already evening when I got home, and many people in the village had just returned from the fields.

After seeing the bullock cart entering the village, everyone was attracted by the horse and two donkeys tied behind the cart.

In this day and age, donkeys are considered big livestock, let alone horses.

Almost everyone followed the bullock cart and pointed at the three animals.

Many people still asked the old patriarch where the animal came from.

After hearing that it was bought by the Han family, everyone looked envious.Of course, many people began to ask around and over where the Han family made their fortune.
