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

But the gold pieces were limited. After buying 23 people's prostitution contracts, there was very little left. I calculated carefully along the way, barely able to eat half full, and endured hunger every time.

As soon as he mentioned food, the others unconsciously covered their flat stomachs.

When Shui Qing heard that Bai Manshan and his entourage were coming over hungry, he stood up quickly and said, "Wait, keep everyone fed!"

Seeing that the person who helped her daughter in the morning was still hungry, Mother Hu quickly went to the kitchen to help.

Qin Yi, Lin Ding, Jiajia, Yan Qiuxing, Zhao Di, also followed in to see if there was anything that needed help.

There are many people, and those who draw water, those who make fires, and those who mix noodles can work quickly and well.

Three large iron pots were set up with firewood at the same time.

What Shui Qing was thinking was that people were hungry, so they had to go quickly and not make eating too complicated.

Rolling out bread and dumplings, rising dough to make steamed buns are too slow, so let’s make noodles.

Fry the toppings while rolling out the noodles. When the noodles come out of the pan, just put a spoonful of the toppings on them. It's quick and delicious.

Mother Hu scooped out flour into the big wooden basin and scooped out the white flour with a clanging sound without feeling any distress at all.

Qin Yilin went to the warehouse and brought a large piece of bacon over, cutting it into evenly thick slices.

Yan Qiuxing was back helping to select the green peppers and green vegetables picked yesterday, while Ding Jiajia was responsible for washing them in the large wooden basin.

Brother Zhao is lighting the fire.

Shui Qing first scooped most of the water into the outermost iron pot and warned: "Jiajia, put the washed green vegetables in it and blanch them until cooked. Take them out and put them directly into the coarse earthenware basin."

Ding Jiajia responded crisply.

Turn the water clear and fry the toppings in a large iron pan in the middle.

The toppings are bacon, fried green peppers, and fried poached eggs in the innermost pan.

By the time the aroma of food wafted from the kitchen, Bai Manshan was no longer interested in chatting. He was staring at the kitchen and drooling from his mouth.

God, he only knows how uncomfortable it is to be hungry!

Fortunately, Shui Qing didn't keep people waiting for a long time and shouted outside: "Okay! Should we take it out to eat or sit and eat in the dining room?"

"I'll serve it myself!" Bai Manshan jumped up and rushed to the kitchen.

Others saw this and followed in.

A big stoneware bowl, no, more like noodles rolled out of white flour in a stoneware basin, snow-white and chewy.

The bacon on top is shiny, and even the green peppers fried with it are also shiny.

There are also green vegetables and poached eggs fried until golden on both sides!

Everyone couldn't help but swallow hard, but didn't dare to step forward.

If it weren't for the fact that there are more than twenty stoneware pots lined up in a row, looking exactly the same, I can't help but wonder if these are for Mr. Bai to eat?

Bai Manshan urged: "Let's go quickly."

"Huh? Oh."

"Oh!"

As if they were just waking up from a dream, everyone quickly stepped forward to pick up the noodle bowls and walked outside to make room for the next person.

Bai Manshan also brought a large bowl and walked to the corridor outside while eating.

It's bright and sunny outside and there's a breeze, which makes it more comfortable than inside.

So did everyone else, each taking big mouthfuls of noodles.

The white noodles are delicate and smooth, the hand-rolled texture is strong, the aroma of meat and eggs, the appetizing taste of chili peppers, and the soothing texture of green vegetables make everyone who eats it unable to talk.

After eating a large bowl of noodle soup, my stomach was full and my whole body was warm. Everyone present seemed to have finally come back to life.

After a while, the man in the crowd suddenly said: "Mr. Bai, I want to stay here."

"Me too."

"I want to stay too."

The echoes came one after another, from the heart, sincerely.

They have never had such a delicious meal since they grew up in Zhuangzi!

The noodles made of white flour are also served with bacon and poached eggs. The oil on the poached eggs is clearly visible. The new owner did not skimp on the oil at all.

Obviously they only need to make a bowl of white noodles for Mr. Bai, and it is the same for them to cook a pot of noodles, but the food prepared for them is the same as Mr. Bai.

After the flood, the old owner just wanted to sell those who survived for money to reduce losses. Mr. Bai bought them and found a new owner for them. He was still a kind owner, and it seemed that he would be able to survive in the future. Get through it.

Bai Manshan looked at the group of people he brought and asked for the last time: "Have you thought about it?"

23 people nodded in unison.

Bai Manshan understood and waved to Shuiqing and Fan Jin, and the three of them entered the tea room.

Bai Manshan sighed and explained: "I sold them a deed to redeem them. My original intention was to set them free, but they said they had been on Zhuangzi since they were born. After so many years, people must have become accustomed to it and can only do farm work. Let them go elsewhere. I don’t know what to do, and it’s a dead end if I go out.”

"The people in my Baijiazhuang are not lost, and I can do it without adding more people. I just thought of you. Can you make it? Let's make an agreement first. They grew up in the same village. They are the only ones left. It's best not to let them separate."

Shui Qing understands. If you want this, you can ask for it together.

She immediately nodded happily: "Sure! We are short of people!"

In the past, she might have considered whether it would be too much, but after purchasing the fields and forests, she immediately felt that it was not much at all!

Bai Manshan is still a little worried: "For 23 people, food rations will cost a lot. Now that the flooded fields are seriously damaged, the harvests in the next few seasons will be affected. Do you have enough food?"

Without the shopping mall, Shui Qing would definitely be worried about how to feed these people until next season.

But now there are still millions of dollars left in the shopping mall, and with the many people picking up mushrooms, they can earn enough to eat every meal!

So when the water is clear, I don’t panic: “Enough, I stocked up a lot before the flood!”

Bai Manshan thought she was talking about potatoes, but thinking of potatoes, he immediately said: "We were almost robbed several times along the way!

What I want to do is to transport a batch of potatoes to Baijiazhuang tomorrow. Otherwise, if there is more chaos in the future, I may not be able to transport it. "

There are hundreds of people in Baijiazhuang, and all their crops have been destroyed. There is no harvest this season, and the food they have stored can last until the beginning of next spring at most.

If potatoes cannot be planted in August and September, the livelihoods of these hundreds of people will not be guaranteed when the crops are harvested next year.

Fan Jin knew how important food was to farmers, so he responded: "Okay, I will go to the village later to borrow a cart and a wheelbarrow." His family only had an ox cart and a donkey cart, which were not enough.

Bai Manshan breathed a sigh of relief and then said: "How many more days do you have to lend me these people? As for Brother Jin, please go to the village and ask. I will pay one hundred cents a day to hire someone to pull a cart and deliver the potatoes to Zhulin Village, Nanning Prefecture." Anyone who wants to go comes wearing the shabbiest clothes at home.”

The clothes he wore were of good quality, so he was targeted by those victims!

Fortunately, the others in the team saw that they were poor farmers who contributed their strength, so those people did not take action.

Tomorrow he will also put on rags and set off.

Then he turned to Shang Shuiqing and said, "Sister, the property I left with you last time"

Shui Qing immediately understood, "How much do you want? Or should I take them all?"
