Chapter 67 Business
The rain has been falling continuously, with no intention of stopping at all, and the entire Qingping County is shrouded in a gloomy cloud.

Xie Zhilan's boat was borrowed to save many people from other villages. For this reason, the favorability value in the system increased by nearly 300 points during this period, which made her very excited.

"Do you think I can exchange things in the system and lend them to others in exchange for favorability?"

system:……

[This system is working hard to fix the loopholes, the host can rest assured that the same situation will definitely not happen again in the future. 】

Xie Zhilan: ...

"Do you regret taking the medicine? Can I take back what I just said?"

[Host, this system has memory]

Xie Zhilan died in depression.

"Alan, go sell cakes today. I'm going to see your grandma of the Li family. I heard she's sick."

Mrs. Chen is a restless person. Ever since she moved into the other courtyard of the Gu family, she has nothing else to do except tidy up the house and sew, so she came up with the idea of ​​selling cakes.

Xie Zhilan has no shortage of raw materials, and the mother and daughter do it as soon as they say it. Xie Zhilan even built a small cart selling cakes with a big umbrella tied to it.

I taught Chen how to make several kinds of cakes. These days, Chen simply made them and sold them. Because of the unique recipe and high-quality ingredients, the cakes made taste good and are very popular.

With the income, Chen didn't panic anymore, and she even had time to visit those folks in the village.

Recently, many disaster victims have come to the county one after another, and the streets that were previously considered lively have become crowded.

I heard that there is no place to live in the temporary resettlement sites prepared by the county government, so many people sleep under the eaves of nearby houses at night.

Not only that, the county government gave porridge to the victims before, at least the porridge was still rice, but now it is getting thinner and thinner, almost turning into water.

Speaking of this matter, Lord Du of the county government office is also very frantic at the moment. After a few years, he will be able to move around based on his stable achievements in the past few years. Who would have expected that a natural disaster would hit him One caught off guard!
If the flood is not handled well, it is very possible for him to pack up and go back to his hometown to farm, let alone move his nest!
Today, not only the county magistrate is worried, but everyone is worried.

Tens of thousands of people in Qingping County were affected by the disaster, and those who went to Qingping and those who did not come to Qingping had a hard time.

There is another big problem. Although it is summer now, some people can't stand it and get sick as time goes by.

Xie Zhilan knew that if one did not pay attention to hygiene during a catastrophe, clusters of infectious diseases would easily break out, so she approached the village head and asked him to remind the county magistrate to arrange to boil some herbs for everyone to drink.

However, Mr. Du was devastated by the disasters in various places, so he didn't pay attention to such things at all. According to his thinking, he wanted to seek medical treatment before the problem of food and clothing was solved?Things just don't go too well!
It was Gu Wei who took the initiative to buy a lot of herbal medicines after hearing about this incident, and set up a medicine application shed next to Dexing Building to provide a bowl of soup and medicine for those who came to seek refuge for free.

After Dexing Building took the lead, some landlords and rich families in Qingping County also started to set up porridge sheds to serve porridge and soup medicine, which made Master Du heave a long sigh of relief.

He secretly decided to praise these people who dared to stand out after the matter was over.

However, it didn't take long for people to get sick one after another. Among them was the grandmother of the Li family that Chen mentioned, she was not yet 50 years old this year.

Mrs. Chen packed some warm pancakes and left.

Now that they don't have to work in the fields, Xie Qing and Xie Lin concentrate on studying with Qin Sheng, and they do a lot of homework every day.

At first they were still taking classes at home, but later, Mr. Gu said that he wanted to discuss with Qin Sheng while he was free, so the school was moved to another courtyard where Gu Wei lived.

Xie Zhilan watched Xie Qing push Qin Sheng and Xie Lin out the door together, and then she pushed the stall to the street.

Because Xie's stall had been set up for several days, many people surrounded her with umbrellas as soon as she came out.

Three pennies per cake is a bit more expensive than other buns, but because of its good taste and softness, there are still many repeat customers.

"I said thank you, Miss, can your family do more in the future? I came a little late yesterday and didn't sell it!" an old lady said.

"My little grandson is so cute that he ate your pancakes. I made a fuss all day without eating them yesterday!"

Although she was smiling when she spoke, she still didn't forget to complain a few words.

Xie Zhilan smiled and wrapped five pancakes for her, "There are not enough people, we can only do our best."

The old lady took the cake and said casually, "If you don't have enough people, you can buy some people. Really, such good cakes only sell so much every day. It's a pity..."

She said and walked away.

The business is still going on, and it will take a lot of time to sell out more than 100 pancakes, but Xie Zhilan listened to the old lady's words.

Maybe she should change her mind and expand her business.

"Go away!"

Not far away, a scolding caught Xie Zhilan's attention.

A little girl about eight or nine years old was overthrown to the ground.The muddy water splashed all over her body, but now it's done, and even the pants are wet.

The little girl got up from the ground with tears in her eyes, and watched the man walk away quickly without looking back with a bit of horror. She walked to the side silently and picked up the broken umbrella that fell on the ground, showing a look of helplessness.

Seeing her staring closely at the little girl, the woman selling vegetables next to her groaned and said, "Your mother is selling here these days, you didn't see, this child comes here every day, and I don't know if he is hungry. Or something, always staring at the things in other people's hands."

"She didn't come to beg for cake?"

The aunt selling vegetables thought about it, "It's really not there, it's weird."

When Xie Zhilan heard this, she saw the little girl drooling as she watched the people leaving with cakes, so she called out to her.

"Little girl—come here!"

After shouting twice, the little girl hesitated and walked over slowly.

"What about your family, why didn't they come with you?" Xie Zhilan asked.

The little girl shook her head and said after a while, "My mother is sick."

"What about your father?"

"Father... is gone!"

After she finished speaking, she lowered her head.

Thin and dense rainwater continuously dripped down her messy hair, a small face as big as a palm was snow-white, as if it could fall down at any time.

Xie Zhilan's heart softened, and she wrapped four pancakes in parchment paper and handed them to her, "Take it and eat it!"

The little girl froze for a moment, then looked up at her.

"Hurry up and take it home, remember to change your clothes, don't get sick!" Xie Zhilan told her again.

"Thank you sister!"

The little girl's eyes lit up, showing a touch of gratitude.Without hesitation, she knelt down in the mud and kowtowed towards Xie Zhilan, so fast that she didn't even have time to stop her.

Seeing that girl ran away, the vegetable seller couldn't help reminding her kindly, "Now there are more and more disaster victims like her in our Qingping County, don't be kind easily, otherwise, she will depend on you every day." !"

Xie Zhilan smiled and said, "Thank you!"

She knows that it's not that women don't have sympathy, it's probably because they have seen these things too much.

But it was just a few pancakes, she didn't take it to heart.

Half an hour later, her pancakes were finally sold out, the woman said with a smile, "Your business is really good, I have to put them until the end of the day to sell them out!"

Xie Zhilan smiled and before she could respond, she saw the little girl go back and forth. She also supported a woman in her 30s. The woman's face was flushed and her expression was sluggish. Almost her entire weight was leaning on the On the little girl.

When they arrived at her stall, the little girl seemed to be exhausted, and both of them threw themselves in front of her!

Xie Zhilan: ...

Really come?

Is this Porcelain?Or extort people?
