Chapter 99 Chapter 98

Because the discussion was about the most important issues related to all the people who walked together, the 58 households who decided to go with them were called to discuss together with those who could make the decision.

Qi Kangfu spoke first: "Brother Li Ba asked others to go to the nearest village, and I rode with him to look for the remote village. We were lucky, and we found someone with food for us."

Qi Kangfu gave a thumbs up to Lieba standing next to Qi Kang'an in admiration, and Lieba waved his hand shyly with a smile.

"The grain designation cannot be good grain like Sanhe Town, where every household in Yangcun has stored last year's corn cobs,,,"

Old man Qian was puzzled, "Why do you still have the corn on the cob from last year?"

"Their village didn't know where they heard about the conscription. They said that the grain could be used to cover the head, but every household didn't sell it all for storage. As a result, there was no conscription at all, and the people who collected the grain had already left. They can't I'm also worried, I can't afford to eat every meal.

When we went to ask, they heard that they wanted to buy grain, and they cried when they were there. The price they offered was [-]% less than what we used to, and it only cost [-] yuan for a hundred catties of detached grains.

There is a mill in their village, and they want to grind them into cornmeal for us. If we buy corn kernels, they will charge you for grinding them into flour. If we buy cornmeal directly, it will cost 120 renminbi per [-] catties, but the stick will not be given. we. "

The old man Qi asked anxiously, "How many?"

This time it was Lianba who replied: "I asked Li Zheng, and he said that the whole village is estimated to be this number."

Stretched out an index finger and shook it.

"One thousand pounds?"

He slapped his thigh with a languid grin, "My Uncle Lu, what a thousand, it's at least [-] catties of dry corn on the cob."

"Ten thousand!!!" There must be at least three or four thousand catties of corn kernels.

"Well, that village is very remote, but the land is not old or young. If you don't believe me, ask Fuzi, the road that enters the village is full of corncobs that can't be seen on the left and right sides."

Now Qi Yuanwai was puzzled, "There is so much food, why do you still say that poor people can't afford food?"

Qi Kangfu pursed his lips, "Uncle Qi, what is the reason? The land is too remote. No matter how much grain is planted, it's not like the harvester will pay whatever price you want."

This is something ordinary people can't do. It doesn't matter who is the person who collects grain in various places every year. If you think the price he gives is low, they will not accept it. When harvesting, the grain can only be piled in one's own hands.

But even with the low harvest price, the common people are reluctant to eat the stored grain by themselves, and only hope that someone will come to collect the grain so that they can have some money on hand.

Member Qi still didn't understand something, so he sighed and stopped talking.

I pray that the old man didn't pay attention to these words. A pure farmer who has lived for decades, there is nothing surprising about these things.

Seeing that they were silent, he asked Ziba again: "Are you sure we can keep those corns?"

It wasn't that he was thinking blindly, the conspicuous Beiyang Town wanted to earn their money, so wouldn't the county magistrate of Beiyang Town, a place called Yangcun, know about it?
Qi Kang'an slapped his thigh, "Father, don't care about other people, let's go and collect it first, who dares to grab it from us after receiving it?
What's more, Bao'er did the whole thing in the morning, and now the big guys in the town can't wait for us all, and they don't have enough food on hand. It's not that we don't buy from them, but they don't have it. "

He understood it in the morning, and if he said that the townspeople of Beiyang Town were overdoing it, it was indeed overdoing it, and they scraped off the refugees' money.

But when it comes to evil, Qi Kang'an found that the people in the town were not evil, at least they didn't look at them with green eyes like the group of refugees who surrounded them when they passed by the hinterland of the mountain.

The experience of fleeing for more than [-] days made Qi Kang'an grow up very fast.

If he had encountered such things in the past, he would only sigh that their luck was not bad, and he might even think that Beiyang Town is not bad, at least the people here still have a conscience.

But now he understands that the war just broke out and not many people passed by or came to Beiyang Town.

According to what he learned in the morning, they were the second large group of refugees who came to take refuge in Beiyang Town.

Coincidentally, there were many people in the first group. They were the wealthy household they met on the road after leaving the village. What's more coincident is that the wealthy household's surname was Wu.

Others who have passed through or settled directly in the surrounding villages are small groups of refugees.

According to his inquiries, there were only a dozen or so people at most, and each of them looked miserable, just like the ones they saw outside the city gate before entering the town.

If there are more people like them from the Wu Mansion and others coming to Beiyang Town, those people from the county magistrate will make a lot of money, and the townspeople will make a lot of money. After a long time, they can only use "earning" to make money for the refugees. Can you still be satisfied?

After thinking about these thoughts, Qi Kang'an said again: "Beiyang Town only said at the beginning that we could stay for ten days, but after only one night, it said that those who are willing to settle down can settle down. I think we don't want people to stay. It's better to leave as soon as possible."

This point of view was fully supported by Qi Baoer, who sat in Qi's arms and raised her claws to speak: "I agree with my father, we can't stay in Beiyang Town for long."

What Qi Kang'an said, everyone still has other ideas. The tired one who came all the way, finally found a place to rest, and naturally hoped to have a few more days of breathing.

But the little god man also said this, and everyone had to be scruples. Could it be that Beiyang Town just wanted to make more money for them, and there were other dangers?

Old man Qian asked: "Bao'er, will something happen if we stay for a long time?"

Tian Dazui also asked anxiously: "Aunt Bao, did you find something when you went out this morning?"

"No, but it's safer if we leave early rather than late."

Pretend to be rich, it can shock people for a while, but after a long time, be greedy for this stuff, it will swell.

But if you don't pretend to be a rich person, you will be hindered in doing anything in Beiyang Town, a place that has deteriorated.

Just talking about the fact that the men are looking for food everywhere today, if it weren't for the so-called rich households among them, it would be impossible for them to search all over the town in less than a day, let alone go out of the town at will in various places. Running around in the village.

The old man Qi made a final decision: "Anzi, you and Jiba will take people to Yangcun overnight. We want as much corn as we want. Tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow at the latest, we have to leave."

"to make."

Both Qi Kang'an and Lieba got up immediately, ordered more than [-] men to go together, and the women were not idle, so they had to clear the cart and let them take it to transport corn.

After a while, only Lao Qi's family members were left in the house.

The old man Qi signaled to Qi Kangfu to close the door before he asked Qi Baoer: "Hey, is something wrong?"

Or did Piaozi inquire about something?

But looking at the sunlight outside the house again, Piaozi should not be able to come out at this time.

Qi Baoer asked back: "Master, did we think of the current situation in Beiyang Town before we arrived in Beiyang Town?"

No, no, but I still have some calculations in my heart. Beiyang Town can't be kind to these refugees.
