Reborn in ancient times: I will make my family rich

After confirming that the road to the village was open, Jiang Nan hurried home to eat.

Some strong men in the village stayed behind to deal with the remaining bodies.

The woman also returned to her residence with her child.

There was joy on everyone's face.

"It's connected," Gu Yanzhou asked when he saw Jiang Nan coming back.

"It's cleared. The villagers are cleaning up the remaining bodies. We estimate that it will be cleared in two days at the latest."

"Hmm," Gu Yanzhou lowered his head and stopped talking, not knowing what he was thinking.

The next day, Jiang Nan heard some chattering outside and saw the headman's wife saying something happily.

"Miss Jiang, the road is open. Are you going to the county today?" The headman's wife saw Jiang Nan and thought it would be more fun with more people.

"Okay, remember to call me when you leave later." Jiang Nan didn't expect to be able to go out today, and his tone was full of joy.

I guess all the bodies in the village were dealt with overnight.

"The villagers are going to the county town soon. Do you want to go?" Jiang Nan asked Gu Yanzhou.

"I'll go with you," Gu Yanzhou thought for a moment and then lowered his eyes and spoke.

"Okay, let's pack up and leave soon." Jiang Nan's eyes lit up as he found the purse that Gu Yanzhou had given him before in his clothes.

There were still some copper coins that had not been used up from last time, and Jiang Nan planned to take all the silver with her, as she was worried about leaving it at home without anyone around.

These are also considerable sums.

After breakfast, Jiang Nan followed the villagers and headed towards the county town.

With the experience from last time in mind, Jiang Nan took the two little ones and walked at the back with Gu Yanzhou.

But she would never go forward to join in the fun again.

After leaving the village, there are still traces of mudslides on the road. The road surface has been washed away by the mudslide, and all kinds of stones and debris are piled on the road, making the road surface bumpy.

It wasn’t an easy journey.

Sometimes you can see one or two unattended corpses.

The journey that normally takes an hour took two hours this time.

"Every family has different needs, so go around and gather here at noon," Li Zheng said to everyone.

He also had to go to the county government to report the situation in the village. The earthquake and mudslides in the village killed half of the villagers.

There is also post-disaster reconstruction work in the village.

Jiang Nan looked ahead and saw that although many of the houses were damaged, it was still a county town, and it was bustling with people coming and going.

The situation in the county is much better than that in the village. It only suffered an earthquake and was far away from the mountains, so there was no mudslide.

Some houses were badly damaged.

"Gu Yanzhou, do you need to buy anything?"

"No, you can do whatever you want."

"Take the kids for a walk first, I'll come find you later."

"it is good."

Although Jiang Nan agreed quickly, he was confused in his heart. Gu Yanzhou said that he had no relatives at home, so why was he going there?

Forget it, it has nothing to do with her.

Jiang Nan shook his head. Anyway, they were just casual acquaintances. It was estimated that Gu Yanzhou would be leaving after a while.

Gu Yanzhou looked at Jiang Nan's back until he disappeared into the crowd and then turned and left.

He looked around with sharp eyes to confirm that there was nothing unusual nearby, and found the Shanju Inn based on his memory from last time.

"Boss, may I ask if Rong Xin lives here?" Gu Yanzhou walked up to the counter and asked.

"There is such a person."

"I'm Rong Xin's friend," Gu Yanzhou introduced himself.

"Go in and turn left and take the first room, that's it." The shopkeeper saw that although Gu Yanzhou was wearing a black linen suit, he had an upright figure and outstanding temperament, which could not be concealed by the suit, so he told him Rong Xin's address directly.

"Thank you," Gu Yanzhou nodded in thanks.

He raised his hand and knocked gently on the door.

"Who?" The moment the door was knocked, the person inside became alert instantly and tightly grasped the dagger in his hand.

"It's me," Gu Yanzhou said in a calm voice.

The door opened from the inside.

"Come in quickly." Rong Xin opened the door, looked at Gu Yanzhou excitedly, tried hard to control his emotions, and welcomed him in.

Gu Yanzhou went in, and Rong Xin made sure that there was no one around before he closed the door with peace of mind.

"General, I'm glad you're okay," Rong Xin said with red eyes and a choked voice.

"Nothing, why are you crying, man? I taught you the same thing every day."

Gu Yanzhou's voice was cold and hard, but if you looked carefully, you could hear that although his tone was reprimanding, it was much lighter.

"I'm so excited. General, now that you're back and I've got the things, let's go back!" Rong Xin reached out and touched his eyes, then spoke respectfully to Gu Yanzhou.

"Take your things back with you. I will make arrangements when the time comes. Be careful."

"But General, you are here alone..." Rong Xin wanted to say something else but was interrupted by Gu Yanzhou.

"Remember what I told you, be careful in everything you do, and I will contact you when the time comes."

After saying that, Gu Yanzhou stood up and left.

Gu Yanzhou quickened his pace and headed towards the street ahead.

Jiang Nan kept walking around and looking around. He found everything in the ancient market strange and interesting.

Soon he was caught up by Gu Yanzhou.

"You haven't bought anything yet," Gu Yanzhou asked with interest as he looked at Jiang Nan's empty hands.

I usually complain about what I lack at home, but now I haven’t bought anything.

"Let's wait and see what the three currencies are. Money should always be spent wisely."

"You are really a stingy person who loves money." Gu Yanzhou sneered.

“Who can resist money?”

Let’s go over there and take a look.

Jiang Nan walked up to a small stall selling backpacks.

"Boss, how much is this backpack?"

"These are one penny each."

Jiang Nan walked forward and picked two. He took out two copper coins from his bag and handed them to the vendor.

"Here's one for you," Jiang Nan handed one to Gu Yanzhou.

Gu Yanzhou took it and put it on his back naturally.

It is more convenient to have a backpack.

You need to buy oil, rice and flour for daily consumption, and the most important thing is the quilt you sleep in at night.

Jiang Nan walked into a rice and flour shop, but the prices of rice and flour in the shop were surprisingly high.

"So expensive." This is at least half more than she remembered the price of food.

Food is also the most scarce thing after a disaster.

Rice is 30 cents per pound, brown rice is 10 cents per pound, and flour is as high as 40 cents.

“Girl, you don’t know, this is a disaster, the crops in the fields are ruined, and now the price of grain has risen, so we need to transport it here.

It still takes manpower and financial resources to go back and forth, the grain store owner said with a worried look on his face.

It's difficult to do business in this world.

Then you should first give me five catties of rice, two catties of millet, two catties of flour, and five catties of brown rice.

Now that the two children are in the growing stage, they cannot be neglected in nutrition.

"Okay, wait a moment, young lady." The shopkeeper didn't expect that Jiang Nan, who was only wearing a cloth shirt, could be so generous and even have money to buy rice.

"Miss, take your things. It's 320 coins in total. The shopkeeper weighed the rice and flour into a cloth bag and handed it to Jiang Nan."

"You bought a lot of cloth bags, so I won't count your money. Come back next time."

The shopkeeper said with a smile that this was the biggest deal of the day.

"Thank you, shopkeeper."

Jiang Nan thanked him with a smile and took the rice and flour handed over by the shopkeeper. Just as he was about to put the food into his backpack, Gu Yanzhou stopped him.

"Let me do it!" Gu Yanzhou put all the things into his backpack.

"Okay, then I won't argue with you."

Free labor is not wasted.

Jiang Nan also bought some pork fat and some large bones from the pork stall to nourish the three people. Pork fat was 140 wen per pound, and Jiang Nan bought four pounds, for a total of wen.

Seeing that Jiang Nan bought a lot, the boss did not charge him for the two big bones.

The meat on the bones is shaved cleanly, and on weekdays it is sold at half price or half given away.

Since you want to refine oil, you can't be without oil pipes, and you also need to buy some buckets and other things.

You need to buy another pot.

An oil can, a water bucket, and a pot cost another three hundred coins.

"Spending money is like running water!"

And the most important thing is the quilt, which has not yet been purchased.

But after visiting several cloth shops, he found that there was no cotton available because the nearby villages had suffered a disaster and they all needed to buy cotton. It was also nearly winter and cotton was in short supply.

Jiangnan Village was the last one to be opened.

The cotton had long been looted.

Jiang Nan had no choice but to give up.

"I don't know when the cotton will arrive," Jiang Nan said with a worried look in his voice.

"It will be soon, don't worry," Gu Yanzhou remembered that it was the same in his previous life. Someone reported the matter to the court, and the emperor specially ordered someone to transfer a batch of cotton for the people to use.
