In famine years, the whole country is hiding from drought corpses. I have space and I am worthy of i

"From now on, you can let them purchase goods. You can know how much you want to purchase."

This was telling her that as long as someone goes out to buy goods and pretends to be a good person, the people in the village will not be suspicious.

"Okay, eldest sister, thank you. I have earned money. I will buy delicious food for you and your nephews and nieces. I will make sure to keep you fat and healthy."

"Nonsense, what do I want to do in vain? Just take care of yourself. By the way, when will the matter between you and Xiaoye be completed? I can prepare a dowry for you."

"Oh, why did you mention this again?" Shen Nan was shy.

"Okay, I won't say it, I won't say it, you can just make up your own mind." Shen Yue stopped teasing her.

Just do it, early the next morning.

Wei Yi and others were dragged over to work as coolies.

The previous bag processing workshop also had some tables, chairs and benches. There was no use leaving it in the house, all the things she found useless. Put them all in the utility room at the back.

Then someone was hired to build cupboards and lockers again. In short, a lot of cupboards of all kinds needed to be built, which would be used for storage and food storage.

Guren and the others were also pulled over to clean up. These girls are all reserve cadres in her hands.

Their eloquence was developed when they were selling bags before. When her department store opens, these girls will all be her excellent shopping guides.

Lord He heard that she was going to open a Laoshizi department store or a grocery store, so he also sent someone to help.

Any soldiers who could do some carpentry work were sent over to help. Weiyi and the others went to the forest to find dead wood, pulled them back one by one, and gave them all to the carpenter, who then built them into cabinets for her.

There are really two genuine carpenters here. Their craftsmanship is very high, and the cabinets they built are beautiful every one, especially the one at the top, which is even more beautiful.

She just opens a department store, and the cabinets she needs are just ordinary cabinets, as long as they are strong and durable.

Unexpectedly, the carpenter also carved a pattern for her. The exquisite pattern on it was so addictive that people couldn't put it down. It raised her department store status by several points.

When the time comes, add some wood-colored paint, and it will be a proper Chinese-style shop.

As the popularity of the village has increased, more and more people have settled in the village. Now there are almost [-] people, which is equivalent to a small town.

The daily shopping needs of three thousand people are enough to support her department store.

At present, one or two hundred people helped her decorate, and the decoration was completed in only five days.

Shen Yue and Wei Ci took advantage of this time to take their guards out to purchase supplies. Carriages were pulling things into the village one after another.

After the decoration of the shopping mall was completed, they spent another day putting away the things they bought.

This shopping mall has two floors. On the first floor, she plans to sell some food and daily necessities. As for the second floor, she hasn't decided when it will be opened.

After all, people are not yet able to buy high-end supplies such as clothing and gold, silver, and jade jewelry.

At the moment, the barbarians have just withdrawn their troops, and everything is in ruins. The people also need to recuperate, and the problem of food and clothing is what they care about.

On the seventh day, Shen's Department Store officially opened.

To celebrate the opening of the shopping mall, they set off two firecrackers in front of the door. Women and children in the village came over to watch the excitement.

Shen Nan was very generous and prepared ten kilograms of candies. Anyone who came to see the excitement could get candies.

Qiaoyun was pregnant and was afraid that the sound of firecrackers would be too loud and frighten the child in her belly, so she did not come over.

Wang Dashan watched her at home, but Aunt He went to the department store to join in the fun. When she came back, she brought back a handful of candies. She and her wife kept two, and the rest were stuffed into Qiaoyun's hands.

"Num, these are the candies my mother went to get when the Shen family's shop opened. You can keep them to eat."

"Mom, you can eat too." Qiaoyun left two candies and pushed the rest to He.

"Just keep it and eat it. Your father and I took two. We are old and have bad teeth. We just need to taste them."

Qiaoyun accepted the handful of candies and wrapped them in a handkerchief. Maybe she was about to give birth, but there was often no taste in her mouth and she couldn't eat.

But when she saw these candies today, just smelling the sweet smell, she suddenly felt like she could eat. So she wanted to eat more for the sake of the child in her belly, so she accepted these candies.

Aunt He saw Qiaoyun lying down and went to work outside.

Dashan, look at Qiaoyun, I'll go out again. "Aunt He asked her son with a veil wrapped with money in her pocket.

"Okay, mother." Wang Dashan didn't ask where his mother was going, but just responded.

That store opened today, and I heard that the items in it were very cheap. She wanted to see if there was anything she could buy for her son and daughter-in-law.

By the way, although it is summer now, it will be autumn in a few months.

The whole family was still wearing old clothes from last year, which were all washed and turned white.

Aunt He wanted to use the money in her hand to buy some fabrics.

If possible, buy some more cotton so that you can wear cotton-padded clothes in winter.

When we arrived at the department store, there was still a long queue outside. She didn't expect that as soon as she turned around, so many people would come.

The people who walked out were all carrying things with both hands, returning home with a full load and looking happy. Aunt He became even more excited, planning to go in and buy something.

There are a dazzling array of products in the department store, and there are bright lanterns and lamps next to each shelf. The things in the food section look very appetizing.

Aunt He couldn't bear it any longer, so she bought a few kilograms of soybeans, and gritted her teeth and bought a pig's trotter, planning to go back and stew pig's trotters and soybeans to replenish Qiaoyun's health.

"Hey, it's Aunt He, are you here to buy something too?" A young woman next to her couldn't help but joked when she saw her.

Aunt He turned around and saw the little woman's bulging belly. She was pregnant like Qiaoyun. Looking at her face again, she saw that it was Wang Baiyu.

"Who do I think you are? It turns out you are Bai Yu. Why, you are married to a scholar who is studying. Why do you have to go out and buy things by yourself when you are pregnant?"

"I can come out when I want. Does Auntie care about it? Your Qiaoyun is pregnant. A family of four can only eat this pig's trotter. Is that enough?"

When Wang Baiyu said this, Aunt He was a little embarrassed and hid the pig's trotter behind her back. This pig's trotter was the smallest one in the stall. It was only enough for one person to eat a few mouthfuls of meat.

She originally planned to put two more pounds of soybeans in so that everyone could have enough to eat, but she didn't expect to be seen by Wang Baiyu at this moment.
