Natural disasters in books: I stockpiled goods to escape famine in ancient times

Song Shiwei was fascinated by the snow scene for a moment. Snowflakes fell on his body. Song Shiwei looked up and a few snowflakes quickly fell on his eyelashes. In the blink of an eye, the snow turned into water and dripped down his eyelashes.

This time when he went out, Song Shiwei was fully armed. Not only did he wear a fur jacket, but he also put on the light blue cloak he bought in Zhangwu City last time. He wore deerskin boots on his feet, gloves on his hands, and even his cheeks were covered with a scarf. Only his eyes were exposed.

After enjoying the snow scenery enough, Song Shiwei instantly moved deeper into the area. Along the way, he heard the sounds of people chopping trees and talking.

He teleported to an empty area several times before stopping. He stood there with his eyes closed, listening to the movements around him.

However, the eyes that had been tightly closed for two minutes suddenly opened, with snow-white flashes reflected in the bottom of the eyes. The next moment, he disappeared from the spot, and when he stopped again, he was hundreds of meters away.

Eight wild boars were digging in the snow together, making potholes all around. The pigs' mouths dug the snow and made a "gong gong" sound.

Song Shiwei stood a few meters away from the wild boar. He lightly kicked the bottom of the long sword with his right leg. As the long sword rushed upward, he grasped the scabbard with his left hand, grabbed the hilt with his right hand, and pulled it to the right, revealing a flash of silver light.

The action took only the blink of an eye.

Song Shiwei teleported directly into the herd of wild boars. Blood splattered wherever the sword passed, and the blood was frozen before it hit the ground.

As the two wild boars fell to the ground and wailed, the other wild boars suddenly panicked and rushed towards Song Shiwei who suddenly appeared. Just as they were about to hit them, Song Shiwei's figure disappeared in an instant and appeared next to another wild boar the next moment.

In a few minutes, all eight wild boars fell to the ground, and the ice and snow melted in their warm blood.

Song Shiwei didn't even frown. He waved his hand to put the wild boar into the space, and then teleported down the mountain.

Although he didn't know what was needed to prepare for the engagement, meat was definitely indispensable, so Song Shiwei went into the mountains to hunt today.

There are eight wild boars, and it is enough to take one to the Huang family. Song Shiwei plans to let Zhang Wu deal with the rest.

Wolf meat and bear meat are not delicious, but wild boar meat tastes okay. Besides, there is a lot of wild animal meat piled up in the space. If you can't finish eating it, you can sell it to others. After all, you need some visible income. These are not a trouble for Song Shiwei, just some small things.

When Zhang Wu came back from the provincial capital, Song Shiwei had been home for a while. He was drinking tea and eating snacks in the main room. There were two sweet potatoes in the brazier.

Hearing the noise, Song Shiwei raised his eyelids and saw Zhang Wu coming in with a lot of bags: "What did you buy?"

"I bought two pieces of fabric and a gold bracelet for Miss Huang, and some red paper and red cloth. The rest was the rouge and powder that Brother Li said the girl liked, and I bought two boxes of each. I also wanted to buy some food and meat, but the food and meat shops were closed."

Song Shiwei nodded: "We have food and meat at home, so we don't have to buy them at high prices. I went to the mountains to hunt a few wild boars this morning, and we can just bring one over when the time comes. Oh, by the way, have you found a matchmaker?"

Zhang Wu smiled and nodded: "Yes, I have invited her. She is scheduled to come to my house early tomorrow morning. Thanks to Brother Li's help, otherwise I would not know where to invite the matchmaker."

"Since Li An has helped, invite him to the wedding for a drink when you get married. The matchmaker will be here early tomorrow morning, and you can deal with the wild boar then," Song Shiwei said, taking out a bag of 100 kilograms of rice from the space, then walked out of the main room and took out a wild boar from the yard.

Zhang Wu moved the things and food he bought back to his room, and then came out with two purses: "When I was buying fabrics, I saw this purse, and I thought that the master didn't have much of these things, so I bought two. The master can use them according to the color of the clothes."

Song Shiwei took the purse and threw it in his hand, jokingly saying, "People who are about to get engaged are really different now. You wouldn't have thought of buying these for me in the past."

Zhang Wu blushed and clasped his fists: "I'm going to kill the wild boar. Master, please go inside and have some tea and warm yourself by the fire. It's cold outside."

Knowing that he was not easily amused, Song Shi smiled and stopped joking, then put the purse into the space.

Coincidentally, one of the two purses Zhang Wu bought was light blue, which matched his cloak today, and the other was light yellow, which was eye-catching when worn in winter.

Zhang Wu did not go to the Huang family today. He stayed at home to pick up wild boars. Before going to bed, he did not forget to cut the red paper in half, and put the betrothal gifts that he would bring to the Huang family tomorrow in one place. Then, he could not resist sleepiness and lay down.

At the hour of Mao on the second day, the master and servant woke up at the same time, moved the betrothal gifts into the carriage, and then went to the city gate, picked up the matchmaker, and walked down to the deserted village, arriving at the Huang family's gate at the beginning of the hour of Chen.

The matchmaker and Song Shiwei walked in front, while Zhang Wu was two steps behind, holding a pile of things.

Everyone in the Huang family was at home at this time. After seeing Song Shiwei and the other two, Luo Hongmei couldn't stop smiling. Even Huang Hai and Huang Ping's three-year-old child came out to watch the fun. When other families heard the noise, they opened their doors and looked out.

Luo Hongmei and Huang Changyuan welcomed Song Shiwei and the matchmaker into the main room. Zhang Wu made three trips back and forth before moving all the betrothal gifts into the house. The whole wild boar was also carried in with the help of Huang Hai and Huang Ping. The things were neatly placed on the two tables and the low cabinet in the main room. It was quite a shock.

Huang Hai's eyes widened even more. While Song Shiwei was talking to his parents, he pulled Zhang Wu aside and asked in a low voice, "Why did you take so many things? Food, meat, and those two pieces of fabric. They are not cheap, are they?"

Zhang Wu chuckled, "My master asked me to prepare all these things, saying that Miss Huang should not be wronged. We hunted the wild boar in the mountains yesterday, and we have food at home. Besides, the betrothal gift cannot be too shabby. This is the only time in a lifetime, so any amount is what we deserve."

After hearing this, Huang Hai couldn't be more satisfied with Zhang Wu. This was a manifestation of how much he valued his own sister. Although he was reluctant, his younger sister would eventually get married. Fortunately, the man she was going to marry was Zhang Wu, whom he knew well and admired, and the two families lived close to each other, so he didn't have to worry about his sister being bullied.

"I have something I want you to pass on to Miss Huang."

Huang Hai was puzzled: "What? Is there anything else?"

Zhang Wu smiled particularly brightly and took out a small square wooden box from his arms: "It looks suitable for Miss Huang, so I bought it."

Huang Hai opened the wooden box and saw a pair of gold earrings inside. He was surprised again: "Gold! You are a wealthy man. My sister will be lucky to marry you."

Zhang Wu immediately put away his smile and said solemnly: "It is my blessing to marry Miss Huang."

Huang Hai was stunned for a moment, then slapped Zhang Wu on the chest: "Good man, I really didn't misjudge you. You must remember what you said today. Don't bully my sister, otherwise my brother and I will not forgive you."

"Don't worry, I will do my best to treat her well."

"Okay, your words are enough. I'll send this thing to her right away, and I'll say a few good words for you."

Zhang Wu thanked him with a red face.
