Traveling through ancient times to survive
Chapter 15 Inventory and Stockpiling
The Li family's house next door was under construction, and Zhao Qing started to go hunting alone in the mountains again. He easily killed two wild boars and a roe deer, and then sold them at the restaurant in town for money. On the way back, he went to the grain store to buy food.
The turmoil over grain collection in the county has finally affected the town. In recent days, grain prices have risen slightly by one or two cents. This subtle change has not attracted the attention of ordinary people, and the town is still thriving.
Originally, he didn't want to sell a large amount of ginseng in a short period of time, but the soaring food prices still made Zhao Qing uneasy, so he had to use the positioning device to find three old ginsengs.
The county was no longer suitable for further sales, so Zhao Qing asked for directions and took a carriage to the next county, where he received another 1,800 taels.
Within a few days, Zhao Qing went on a shopping spree in the neighboring county and surrounding towns and villages, and stored all the supplies in the space Newri.
Including the previous inventory, the space button is now 2/3 full, with the following supplies: three tons of rice, two tons of fine noodles, one ton of dark noodles, five tons of brown rice, and five tons of corn; one thousand five hundred kilograms of pork, 100 chickens, 50 ducks, 500 eggs, and six hundred kilograms of fish; two tons each of cabbage and radish, five hundred kilograms of cucumbers, three hundred kilograms of eggplants, one hundred kilograms of dried mushrooms, and one hundred kilograms of dried bamboo shoots; fifty kilograms of coarse salt, two sets of pots and pans, and various seasonings that can be used for several years; one hundred kilograms of cotton, ten pieces of fine cotton cloth, ten pieces of oilcloth, and ten pieces of coarse cloth; fifty patches of typhoid medicine, fifty patches of epidemic prevention medicine, and ten bottles of wound medicine; five tons of charcoal; ten water tanks and twenty water bags that are one and a half meters high.
After spending more than 789 taels of silver, Zhao Qing returned home with a carriage full of grain.
In the new brick house, Zhao Dezhang was fidgeting, and Li Heng stopped teaching.
Zhao Dezhang said excitedly: "Brother Heng, it must be my eldest sister who is back."
Li Heng's voice was steady, and his emotions could not be seen: "So?"
Zhao Dezhang slowly calmed down, looking ashamed: "Brother Heng, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been distracted from my studies."
Seeing the child about to cry, Zhao Heng slowed down his tone and said, "We've been in class for half an hour. Let's take a break for a quarter of an hour."
"Brother Heng, I was wrong. I don't need to rest."
"I'm tired."
"Oh, then you should take a rest first."
"Let's go."
The two of them came out of the room together, and Zhao Qing was moving grain from the ox cart.
"Miss Zhao, let me help you."
Zhao Qing felt a pain when she heard this: "I don't need your help. Just call me Zhao Qing, don't call me Miss."
Zhao Dezhang stopped Li Heng from going forward to help: "Brother Heng, my eldest sister is very strong. She would feel like a hindrance if the two of us go over."
Sure enough, Zhao Qing picked up two bags of grain with one hand and quickly moved all the grain into the kitchen.
Li Heng thought for a moment, "Dezhang, why is your family buying food now?"
"Brother Heng, my family didn't get any food when we divided up the family property a few days ago."
"That's it."
He is quite perceptive. The two families have a good relationship. Li Wu is also good in martial arts, so they can help each other in the future.
Thinking of this, Zhao Qing took the initiative to reveal more information: "I don't know what's going on in the town recently. The price of grain has increased by one or two cents."
Li Heng's expression slightly changed: "Thank you for letting me know."
Li Heng and the other continued to study, while Zhao Qing went into the cellar from the kitchen and had already taken over the task of storing grain. Zhao Qing ignored Wang Mei's nagging and stored a lot of things according to his own ideas.
Counting the supplies in the cellar, there were about 300 kilograms of rice, about 300 kilograms of white flour, 1,800 kilograms of brown rice, 1,500 kilograms of corn, and 1,000 kilograms of black flour.
The food in the cellar can last the whole family for two years even if they eat everything they want. If there is more, it may go bad.
Unprocessed rice and wheat can be stored for three years. This year, the rice in the fields will be stored directly without processing, and some vegetables and meat will be stored and dried and pickled.
As for cotton cloth and the like, there are twelve pieces of coarse cloth, five pieces of fine cotton cloth, and fifty kilograms of cotton. These stocks are sufficient for the time being.
The medicinal materials for common prescriptions were also stored in sufficient quantities. Zhao Qing found a lot of raw materials in the mountains according to the prescriptions. He went to the pharmacy to buy the few that he could not find, which saved him a lot of money.
After counting the supplies, Zhao Qing decided to stock up on some firewood and charcoal, and finally dry more wild fruits and vegetables and pickle some meat for storage.
After crawling out of the cellar and resting for half an hour, Zhao Qing began to prepare dinner. She mixed three pounds of white rice and five pounds of brown rice to cook a large pot of rice, cut up a dried pheasant and stir-fried it with mushrooms, made a pot of cucumber salad, three pounds of fresh pork belly stir-fried with dried bamboo shoots, and a large plate of minced meat and eggplant. Dinner was ready.
The aroma drifted into the next room, and Li Wu patted Zhao Chengchuan on the shoulder: "My niece's cooking skills are extraordinary. We are in for a treat again."
Zhao Chengchuan was proud of it: "Qing Ya's cooking skills are really great, Brother Li, you can eat as much as you want later, don't be polite."
"I think my niece is quite strong?"
"I originally had the greatest strength in this village. Qingya is like me, but even stronger than me. As long as I can eat enough, I can fight three of them at once."
"She's a good candidate for martial arts. Are you interested in letting her learn some martial arts?"
"Brother, are you willing to teach?"
"If you don't mind my poor martial arts skills."
"Brother, you are too modest. Judging from your physique and spirit, you must be a master. Go back and ask her to kowtow and become your disciple. Just order her around, and I will have no complaints."
"No, no, no, there's no need to become my disciple. I can only teach you some basic self-defense skills, so I'm not worthy of being called a master. If Dezhang is willing, you can practice with me."
"Brother, how can you not be worthy of it?"
"No, my martial arts skills are average, don't mislead the students. Besides, I am her uncle, so can't she serve me tea and water if I don't become her disciple?"
"That's right. Qingya's meal should be ready soon."
Li Wu turned around and shouted, "It's getting late, let's stop here for today, everyone go back to eat and come back tomorrow!"
Zhao Qing was originally racking his brains over how to make up a story to justify his martial arts skills, but when he found out that Li Wu was willing to teach him, it was like he was falling asleep and hitting the pillow.
At night, Zhao Qing recharged all his silver coins, and after buying the elementary body-building technique, the remaining points were only enough to buy one kind of cold weapon technique points.
After careful consideration, Zhao Qing preferred long-range attacks. His physical skills from his previous life were enough for close combat for the time being, and he could soon learn martial arts from Uncle Li.
After buying the key points of bow skills, there are still points left, and the gray button at the bottom remains indifferent.
Zhao Qing originally guessed that the refresh condition was to buy everything once, but now it seems that is not the case.
Then I thought again, the current products are enough, and after the refresh, the products may not be needed now, and the products that are of great use now may also no longer exist.
Spiritual food can be said to be of vital importance to her. Zhao Qing bought another 150 kilograms of spiritual rice and 100 kilograms of spiritual meat, preparing to go up the mountain in the next few days. She steamed all the rice and made it into rice balls, made half of the spiritual meat into jerky, and fried the other half and wrapped it in the spiritual rice balls, which she then stored in the space button, and would take them out secretly as a snack when it was not suitable to go out in the future.
