Parents are busy farming

Ye Zifen frowned and responded with firm eyes: "I didn't think about buying them, I just wanted to lend them money and lead them back to my hometown to make a living. When they make enough money, I will Just pay me back the loan."

Speaking of this, Ye Zifen rolled her eyes dissatisfied, showing her helplessness towards this misunderstanding.

"Why should I buy them? Now I have an old father above me to support, and a young brother below me to take care of. There are so many shopkeepers and clerks, and in addition, do you know how many people are in the caravan? Really? I can’t bear any more pressure.”

These words were not only to reassure the other party, but also to vent the anguish and sorrow in his heart.

In fact, Ye Zifen is also facing a rather thorny problem at this time: the crop harvest in the southern region this year is not as good as that in the first half of the year. This is actually expected. After all, the current court will definitely pay close attention to this and the south. Rising food prices has become an inevitable trend.

However, she cannot follow the trend! In addition, last year, people in their village could still purchase grain nearby, but this year this route was no longer feasible. As if they had learned something inside, they all chose not to sell their own grain.

She was very pleased that people were so aware, but their business was becoming increasingly difficult to do.

The man whose hands were not tied breathed a sigh of relief and had a naive smile on his face.

I saw him scratching his head, grinning and saying: "Hey! Girl, you are such a good person... If it weren't for your magnanimity, we brothers would probably have to deal with it here!"

Ye Ziwei couldn't help but curse in her heart: "You came to intercept us, we didn't do anything to you, you can't be grateful."

However, Zi Zifen did not appreciate it. She raised a hand and interrupted the other party in a cold tone: "Stop it! I don't care about the title of 'good guy'. These days, being a good guy is often short-lived. I still don't care." I want to live a few more years!”

After speaking, she glanced lightly, with a hint of disdain in her eyes.

Hearing this, the man suddenly felt at a loss and stood there not knowing what to do.

After a moment of silence, Ye Zifen suddenly asked: "Can your family's food supply last until spring?"

After hearing this, the man's face became solemn. He shook his head very frankly and replied: "I can't hold it anymore. My family has a large population, and they are all men. They eat a lot. Now the family is so embarrassed that they can only eat one meal a day. It’s time for a meal.”

At this moment, another person whose hands had been tied suddenly looked up at Ye Zifen, and Ye Zifen also happened to turn his attention to him.

The two people's eyes met together, as if they understood the deep meaning in each other's eyes in an instant.

Through a brief observation, Ye Zifen was keenly aware that the two men had completely different personalities.

The tied man has a calm and restrained personality and an extremely alert mind; and from the subtle care he takes for the people around him who are not tied up, it can be seen that this person must be a person who values ​​love and justice and is trustworthy.

She said calmly to the man in front of her: "I will let you go later, but you need to decide who to send to pick you up. Remember not to cause any trouble for me. If I find anything wrong If something is wrong, the idiot next to you will die immediately!"

The person who was not tied up couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when he heard that Ye Zifen actually called him an idiot. When he was about to retort, he accidentally met Ye Ziwei's sharp, knife-like gaze.

In an instant, his whole body froze, his mouth opened wide but he couldn't make a sound.

There is no doubt that Ye Zifen's words are a naked threat.

However, after a long period of silence and staring, the man finally nodded slowly and agreed.

Because he knew very well why Ye Zifen said that - she was afraid that he would spread the news and attract those people with ulterior motives in the village.

If that time comes, these villagers may be incited to come and rob them...

At this moment, the original thought of robbery in his mind had disappeared without a trace, replaced by what Ye Zifen said just now - next year she will return here with food and trade with the villagers. At the same time, she will Help everyone find job opportunities.

For the villagers who have been living in poverty, these are undoubtedly the things they dream of.

Who doesn’t want to live a stable and secure life without any worries?

At this moment, the fool who had been silent suddenly spoke for the first time: "Uncle! Can you call all my brothers over when you go home later? We all want to talk to this guy Good-hearted girls go out to work together to make money, so that the women and children at home can have more meals!”

Then, as if he was afraid that the other party would reject him, he quickly turned to look at Ye Zifen and asked expectantly: "Girl, if we all work with you, will you care about our meals? Hehe, To tell you the truth, my family has quite a big appetite!”

After saying that, he scratched his head in embarrassment.

Hearing this, Ye Zifen couldn't help but smile, but there was a bit of helplessness and bitterness in the smile.

She shook her head slightly, with a helpless smile on her lips, and responded softly: "If I really provide for you to eat every day, I'm afraid it won't be long before you starve to death and your family wealth will be wiped out and you will be destitute. Oh! Why did you become so greedy so quickly that you completely forgot about the moral principles of the world? "

Although it was a joke, it seemed like it was just a joke, but it contained endless sadness and bitterness.

Hearing this, the man hurriedly shook his head and waved his hands, and explained eagerly: "No such thing, no such thing! As long as we can eat a few mouthfuls of food to fill our stomachs, we won't be so hungry that our chests stick to our chests." Back then, when our family was in good times, we only ate seven to eight cents full at each meal. My mother often said that if everyone went to bed with a full stomach, the remaining food in the family would have been used up long ago. ”

Hearing this, Ye Zifen couldn't help but sigh: "Your mother is really far-sighted and far-sighted!"

However, there seemed to be other hidden meanings in her words, but the stupid man didn't notice it and kept nodding in agreement.

Then he said: "Really? My mother always said that she was a stupid woman who had a bad life and gave birth to several debt collectors like us. It turns out that she is quite smart. Hehe!"
