After he and his mother-in-law separated, he built a house and stocked a warehouse full of grain and

Fresh yam does not need to be processed, and Ding Heli is determined not to pay for it.

He divided the profits from the dried yam and received 350 taels and [-] Wen. This amount would not be earned by many people in Shanshui Village all year round.

Ding Heli thought that he would eat and drink well every day, and not be worried or tired. He had earned nearly five taels in just a few days and was very satisfied.

Apart from anything else, the food for the family has improved significantly, and everyone has become more mellow.

Moreover, in the past, the couple would either collect or prepare medicinal materials, leaving Jiajia alone with no one to talk to. Now, when she went to Shuiqing's house today, there were many people and everyone was easy to get along with.

The more Ding Heli thought about it, the more he felt that this was the right step!

Fan Jin carefully packed up the money, and Uncle Ding, who was familiar with medicinal materials and drug stores, was responsible for selling the medicinal materials. It was simple and fast, and there was no need to worry about being cheated.

After getting on the ox cart, he drove the ox cart and asked: "Uncle Ding, what do you want to buy first?"

Ding Heli really wanted to buy a lot of things this time.

Fortunately, Fan Jin's oxcart was there, otherwise there would be so much stuff on the muddy road and it would be difficult to move. With the number of victims increasing, we still don't know when it would be possible to transport everything back.

He picked the most important thing and said: "Buy salt first. Your Aunt Ding told me that this is the most important thing. If there is a rice shop on the road, you must also buy two bags of rice and white flour."

Now that we are concocting medicinal ingredients, we can shamelessly eat them at Shuiqing's house, but we will definitely not be able to do that later and we will definitely have to go home.

Yilin followed Shui Qing and learned a few pasta dishes, especially the baked corn noodle pancake. The bottom layer was crispy and crispy, and the dough was soft and fragrant. White flour was indispensable, but the corn pancake can be purchased from Fan Jinjia.

The village master exchanged potato seeds with his family, so there was more cornmeal than they could eat, and they could save on carrying it all the way back from the capital.

While the two were talking, they passed by a rice shop that was crowded with people.

The waiter kept yelling, "Don't crowd, don't crowd." The shopkeepers came out and waved their hands to maintain order.

Ding Heli looked at the crowd that was still pushing in, opened his mouth, and then said: "Let's go to the next house and have a look!"

When we arrived at the second home, it was even worse than the previous one.

Fan Jin looked at Ding Heli, who gritted his teeth, rolled up his sleeves and rushed in!

Originally, you could just go in and buy it, and the waiter in the store was also responsible for carrying it to the car and tying it up. But now it took less than half an hour, and Ding Heli carried it out by himself.

Fan Jin hurriedly took it, put it on the bullock cart and tied it tightly with the hemp rope he brought.

Ding Heli went in and out several more times, and finally breathed a sigh of relief after buying five sacks. He wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeves, sat on the oxcart frame, and muttered: "You don't know, it's like robbery inside!

The shopkeeper didn't even have time to collect the money, and the second brother, let alone moving, had to make every effort to say a few words to him.

I originally planned to buy four sacks, but when I saw the battle, I quickly added one more sack! Hey, no matter what, I don’t have to worry about the food rations for the family of three next year. "

When the potatoes are harvested in the second half of the year, I will buy more potatoes to eat with them. It will not be a problem to eat these fine grains for a year and a half.

Wait until next year, when the village has more or less rice harvest, you can just buy it from your own village.

Fan Jin frowned slightly when he saw the grand scene of the rice shop.

Salt is sold uniformly by the government, and the quantity is sufficient and the price has not risen yet. It is not as good as those in Mipu, but it is still much more than usual.

Ding Heli bought dozens of kilograms directly.

Fan Jin also bought some.

Shuiqing Mall has everything, but you have to buy a few things on your way out. It is inconvenient to transport food back, so buying salt is practical and durable.

There were surprisingly few people in the grocery store.

That's right, food and clothing are the most important thing nowadays when there are floods. These things that cannot be eaten or drunk are the icing on the cake when times are good, but in disaster years they are the first to be discarded.

Ding Heli had enough money and bought a lot of brown sugar, hair flowers, lamp oil, fire discounts, etc. in one go.

The store manager even got a lot of money off for the many purchases he made.

The last place we went to was Buzhuang, where there were even fewer people. There was no one else except the two of them.

Ding Heli bought fine fine cotton with bright colors. It seemed like he was buying it for his daughter.

He also bought dark coarse cotton, which belonged to him and Yilin.

Fan Jin bought more.

His family has a large population, and especially the children grow up quickly, so each person needs a lot of fabric for two sets of clothes every season.

I bought a lot of fine cotton, coarse cotton and linen.

Unlike Ding Heli's family who wears the good stuff for their daughters, their family puts the good stuff on the inside and the bad stuff on the outside.

Shui Qing said the material is soft and comfortable to wear.

I often work in the mountains and fields, so I don’t feel bad if the poor material gets scratched or sewn.

It is enough for everyone to have a pair of good-quality outdoor clothes.

An hour and a half passed quickly, and the two of them arrived at the agreed meeting point early, where the men in the village were waiting early.

Seeing them coming back with a cart full of goods, I hurriedly greeted them and talked.

"The price of food has increased so much. When black noodles were cheap, they were only three cents a pound. When they were expensive, they were only four cents a pound. Now they are six cents!"

"The price of coarse grains has also increased sharply. I originally wanted to buy some millet to make porridge, but when I asked, the price actually increased by two cents per pound than before! It is too expensive.

There were so many people, it was like a robbery, I only bought a dozen kilograms. "

"We found three shops, and each one had more people than the last. Instead of reducing the price of last year's old grain, the price actually increased. Hey, the new grain is gone, so the price must not be increased."

"Uncle Ding, what did you buy? Has the price increased?"

Ding Heli hurriedly replied: "The rice and flour I bought are not bad, each has only increased by one penny and a pound."

It's normal for many men to hear this.

Rice and flour are fine grains and are inherently expensive. Few people buy them, so it is normal for the prices to increase a little.

"Oh, I knew the price would go up, but I didn't know it would go up so much."

I originally thought I could buy a hundred kilograms of black noodles, but now I have less than seventy kilograms, which is a sudden loss of more than 30 kilograms of grain.

"Come here in a few days, I'm afraid the black noodles will be sold at the price of whole grains!"

"Don't sound scary!"

"Did I say scary? Look at the fields outside. Will there be a harvest this year? If there is no food, we can't sell it at a high price."

Sighs kept coming from the crowd.

Fan Jin silently counted the number of people. After the count was completed, he raised his voice to everyone: "Everyone is here, let's go back to the village quickly."

The men who were originally sighing looked up at the sky and were surprised to realize that it was indeed getting late.

Each of their cars is piled full of things, and everything they need urgently for their families can't let anything go wrong.

When we returned to the bullock cart, there was a lot of stuff being pulled on the cart. Fan Jin and Ding Heli had already got down to follow them.

The men took turns pulling and pushing the cart, and the people next to them were also busy, supporting and helping push it.

After leaving the city, the ragged victims looked at their vehicles and swallowed their saliva.

All the men in Shanshui Village's outing team were sweating coldly behind their backs. They couldn't help but feel lucky that there were so many of them. If one or two came over, they wouldn't be scared to death!

Go home, go home quickly.
