Natural disasters at the beginning, widows take space to raise cubs and get rich

Chapter 148

Three or four hours later, around noon, it was more than 100 kilometers away from Huating County.

Along the way, Xia Huai and the others encountered many refugees. They described themselves as embarrassed and panicked, but their footsteps never stopped.

Some people fell down while walking, and those who walked with him, whether they were relatives, villagers or strangers, did not pay extra attention to the fallen people, and still walked forward like walking dead.

Those pairs of rotten shoes, those mottled and scarred feet, never stop.

If they could talk, Xia Huai thought, the world would be full of noise.Being filled with the voices of 'go forward', 'don't stop' and 'stop or die'.

And she can't do anything, she can only be a cruel and indifferent spectator of the misery in this world.

While they were paying attention to the refugees, the refugees were also silently watching Xia Dashan and the others.

They were so curious that they only saw people walking forward along the way, but they never saw anyone walking backward.Feeling suspicious of Xia Dashan and the others' whereabouts, they actually seemed a little more alive.

"Look, this is a group of fools. Everyone is going to Huating County. Why are they going back?"

"Don't care what they do, it's time to fart! People have cars and horses, do you have them?"

"Could it be that something went wrong in Huating County? Shouldn't it be allowed?"

"Bah, bah, shut your mouth if you can't speak!"

When everyone was discussing, Xia Huai and others finally stopped.

"Father, it's near here. There just happens to be a forest that can block the sun." Xia Huai jumped off the mule cart and began to direct Zhang Damu and the others to unload.

The choice of this place is not very good. It stands to reason that if you walk one or two hundred kilometers further, there will be a sea of ​​people, but Xia Huai has her considerations.

Although there are Wuying and Zheng Daqiao, but there are too many people, they can't parry.Those who can go to this place, most of them have some food money in their hands and some support, and the farther away from Huating County, the more people there are, and there are not many people who really go to the front.

Due to various reasons, Xia Huai decided to set up a stall here.

Putting down the tables, chairs, pots, pans, ingredients and water, Zhou Huiniang rolled up her sleeves and prepared to light the fire and make sesame seed cakes.

The noodles are made one night in advance, so you can use them directly at this time.

The water was packed in wooden barrels with more than a dozen barrels. Although there was a little loss on the road, because of the lid, there was not much loss.

Moreover, the water is purchased at a low price.As for the wooden barrels, Jia Xin borrowed them from door to door in the village. Selling water is basically a one-shot deal, so there is no need to buy wooden barrels.

There is no need to give money to the villagers for renting wooden barrels, just send some food to the villagers when the time comes.

Of course, even if there is a lot of loss, Xia Huai can also fill in the gap secretly.

The charcoal was borrowed from Village Chief Lin before, it should be enough for today, and I will have to buy some tomorrow. By the way, Xia Huai is going to start making some charcoal by himself.

The main charcoal is too expensive, so I buy it every time and use it every time, no matter how much I earn, I can't make up for this loophole!

Just in case, Xia Huai only prepared water and biscuits this time.

The braised pork and stir-fried vegetables were too fragrant, and she was afraid that these refugees would go crazy and be inappropriate.Of course she could find a few people to make an example to others, but it wasn't necessary, she didn't want to get blood on her hands.

Let's take a look at the situation of these refugees first.

Seeing Zhou Huiniang start kneading dough to make biscuits, those refugees were stunned.

"Am I dazzled, what are those people doing?"

"Make biscuits?"

"Crazy, this place is for business? Are they tired of living?"

"They are tired of living? I think you should be careful about your own life! See the group of people behind them? They all hold big knives and look like they are going to kill people at any time. They don't have the confidence to come here for business?"

"The so-called seeking wealth and wealth, I don't think these people are easy to mess with!"

"That's what you say, but who has the money to buy food?"

As soon as these words came out, a group of people came to the booth carelessly, and shouted in a rough voice: "What are you selling?"

Zhou Huiniang's heart fluttered and her heart was pounding, but when she thought of her daughter next to her, she immediately calmed down a bit, raised her head, and greeted each other warmly: "Guys, I have sesame seed cakes and water here. I can't buy them." ?”

Those few people didn't seem to be good at it, but unexpectedly they didn't say anything, and asked directly, "How did you sell it?"

Zhou Huiniang was secretly happy, but said lightly on her mouth: "Water is three Wen a bowl, and sesame seed cakes are five Wen each. Selling Shaobing gives a bowl of water, can you buy it?"

One of the men headed by those men heard the words, his eyes flashed, and he said in a rough voice: "Three pennies a bowl of water, are you crazy? It's so expensive, who will buy it!"

Zhou Huiniang seemed to have expected such a situation, and said with a smile: "Ham, how can three pennies be considered expensive? The water in Huating County has doubled, and it will be difficult for us to transport it all the way. Three pennies is really not worth it." Expensive! Besides, if you buy sesame seed cakes, it is equivalent to buying a sesame seed cake and giving you a bowl of water, that is, you get three Wen for nothing, what a deal!"

The man was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect that Zhou Huiniang not only didn't panic, but also explained well, even he felt that if he didn't buy it, he would lose money.

"Hey, then, let's get ten sesame seed cakes."

After finishing speaking, he seemed to be afraid of what Zhou Huiniang would say, and rushed to talk like burning his butt: "You said that you get a bowl of water when you buy sesame seed cakes, but if we buy ten, you have to give ten bowls!"

Zhou Huiniang nodded quickly, and pointed to the empty table next to her: "The biscuits will take a while, you should sit down and rest first!"

"Xiao Chuan, collect the money!"

Xia Fang hurriedly put down the book, and flicked the abacus in a serious manner: "Ten biscuits, ten bowls of water, a total of 50 Wen."

This abacus was made by Xia Dashan himself in his previous business, and it has been used for many years and it is still strong.

The man didn't renege on his debt, he just said: "First serve five bowls of water, and we'll fill up the rest." After speaking, he took out a string of money from his purse and threw it to Xia Fang.

Xia Huai originally wanted to be a junior on her own, but Wu Ying stopped her.

With a cold face, he filled five bowls of water with a scoop, then stood motionless, and suddenly threw a bowl of water towards the table.

Those men just sat down, and one of them happened to look at Wuying, and his face turned pale with fright: "Big, big brother, little"

The leading man said impatiently: "No matter how big or small, even sitting down can't stop your stuttering mouth!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the bowl of water passed through the eyes of the leading man like a graceful arc, and finally landed on his left hand.

Strangely enough, not a single drop of water spilled out.

"."

Without waiting for the leading man to speak, Wu Ying quickly passed the remaining four bowls to several people in turn.Without exception, every bowl of water is on everyone's left.

"."

Wuying ignored the five stunned people, and turned to Xia Huai with a smile: "Miss Xia, go and rest, I am here."

Xia Huai: "Okay." In terms of pretending to be b, I'm really not as good at martial arts as you!
When can she have this hand?For nothing else, I just want to feel the admiration of others!
