"Evergreen, it's 15 taels here, order some." Shopkeeper Lin took out a few ingots of silver and some broken silver from the counter.

Ning Changrong took it and looked at it, and there was nothing wrong with it. "Thank you, Shopkeeper Lin."

The shopkeeper Lin saw that there was no abnormality on the other party's face, and added: "Evergreen, although you brought more Chinese cabbage this time than last time, you also know that the winter is over now, so the price may have dropped a little. This is also given to you according to the market price, and there is absolutely no deliberate deduction of your money."

Ning Changrong smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Lin, don't worry. I'm not someone who doesn't know how to count. The prices of vegetables this winter must be different from other times."

Shopkeeper Lin couldn't breathe a sigh of relief, and said cheerfully, "Okay, then we'll clear the money and goods. If there are any leftovers, you can bring them here at any time."

Originally, he was still a little worried that Ning Changrong would feel that he was deliberately lowering the price, so he didn't need to explain it now.

He likes to deal with this kind of sensible people, clean and tidy.

"Then I'll go first, shopkeeper Lin."

When Ning Changrong turned around and was about to step out the door, he was stopped by the other party again:

"Oh, I almost forgot to tell you something. Didn't you guys want to buy grain when you came back last time? The grain shop opened a few days ago, and several stores opened together. If you want to buy, you can go now .”

Ning Changrong thanked the other party and left.

His family doesn't need to buy food.But you can inquire about food prices.

When Ning Changrong went to the grain store empty-handed, he found many people buying grain at the door.

He was too lazy to squeeze, so he pulled a person next to him who seemed to be in his 40s and asked, "Brother, what is the price of this food now?"

The man who was caught said: "Two liang of silver is a bucket."

Ning Changrong was shocked.

"Why is it so expensive?"

Two taels of silver? !
If he remembers correctly, it's usually three or four dollars a bucket, right?

Good guy, this has doubled almost ten times!

"Why not? This is the price after the price has been reduced! The day the store first opened, it sold for three taels of silver! No way, no matter how expensive it is, you have to buy it. If you don't buy it, what do you eat? The same is true for other stores, and you don't have to go there Busy work, if you want to buy, just line up here."

Ning Changrong withdrew from the crowd, bought some things for the family, and then drove the ox cart back.

It seems that in addition to preparing weapons to defend against the enemy at home, food is also essential.

The price of food in the county is almost exactly the same. He can't believe that there is no one behind it.

Ning Changrong plans to buy a few more acres of land and use it to grow food!

Stock up on his food for five or ten years.

No one wants to strangle his family's neck!
Xiayuan Village.

"I'm back, I'm back! Let's see if it's Evergreen's car?"

Grandma Lai squinted her eyes, and after seeing it clearly, she said pleasantly, "It's my Changrong nephew!" But she finally came back.

After they had dinner, they moved a stool and sat at the entrance of the village to wait.

When Ning Changrong approached, he realized that a group of old men and women were standing at the entrance of the village.

He hurriedly slowed down the speed of the bullock cart, for fear of knocking these people out of good or bad.

As long as the black spot is not provoked now, it will not be easy to kick people.

Therefore, when these people approached it, it just flicked its tail impatiently, and did not make any aggressive movements.

Mrs. Han raised her voice and asked, "Evergreen, how is the sale!? Has it been sold?"

Mrs. Lai kept looking into the car, but she didn't dare to get too close because of the black spots.

"It's all sold out, Evergreen?"

Ning Changrong waved his hand to let everyone give way, "It's sold out, don't worry everyone, you can grow cabbage with peace of mind."

Ning Changrong knew what they were worried about, comforted everyone, and then drove the bullock cart back home.

Wang Xiujuan left some dinner for her son, and at this time the two were in Ning Qingxi's room and started tinkering with things together.

After hearing the sound of Ning Changrong entering the door, Wang Xiujuan only said, "The rice is in the pot in the kitchen, you can eat it yourself."

Ning Changrong smiled helplessly, went to the kitchen and ate his fill before knocking on the door and entering Ning Qingxi's room.

The grandparents and grandchildren were sitting cross-legged on the ground, surrounded by the three largest jars, as well as some bottles and cans and yellow paper, which had been cut into squares.

Next to Ning Qingxi's right hand is a ready-made test product.Keeping promises are some thin and long "ropes".

Ning Changrong didn't mind being dirty, and sat cross-legged next to them on the floor.

Picking up the small paper bag next to Ning Qingxi, he opened another jar that was tightly jammed.

"Girl, are these ready?"

Ning Qingxi was filling the gunpowder non-stop.At this time, the sky was getting dark, and the thing they made couldn't be ignited, so she was going to put it away in a while.

"Yes, but we still have to experiment and see what needs to be improved."

The production of gunpowder is not as simple as mononitrate, disulfide and tricharcoal.

There is no way for this scale to be very accurate, and the ratio will directly affect the power of gunpowder.She needs many experiments to find the best ratio.

"Okay, since it's done, let's sneak up on the mountain and try it out tomorrow morning." If it wasn't for fear of danger at night, he would have tried it right now.

The next day, the genius was slightly brighter.

The three of them each carried a steamed bun and sneaked up the mountain.

Ning Changrong walked in the front, and when he reached the deep mountain, he held the firecracker in his hand.

Ning Qingxi also took a hand crossbow to look around.

They also brought a small piece of tiger dung bought from the hunter's house, the smell from which can drive away most animals.

There was no attack by any large animals along the way.

The three of them walked to an uninhabited deep mountain.

"Girl, it's right here. Even if there is any movement, we will leave long before someone comes to check."

Ning Qingxi nodded, holding a jar in his hand with a long lead wire on it.

Ning Changrong didn't dare to let his daughter try it, so he took the gunpowder jar and told his grandparents to hide. He lit the fuse of the gunpowder jar with the torch he was carrying.

For the sake of safety, the gunpowder fuse Ning Qingxi left was very long, and Ning Changrong lit the fuse and ran back, and the fuse was not burned out.

The three covered their ears, hid behind a stone and looked ahead.

After a while, it still exploded, that's when Ning Changrong wanted to ask if it was misfired.

"boom!"

A loud noise came from the front!
Also brought some slight vibrations.

The three of Ning Changrong hid behind the stone with their heads in their hands, checked each other, and checked after making sure that they were not injured.

Ning Qingxi took a look at the hole left by the black powder pot, and was not satisfied.

Not powerful enough.

Ning Qingxi took out another paper bag of gunpowder to Ning Changrong.

"Daddy, let's try this again."

After Ning Changrong lit the fuse, the three of them hid back to their original places.

"boom!"

The explosion this time was more intense than the last time!
Ning Changrong covered his ears and felt that his ears were buzzing.It relieved a lot by digging my ears with my fingers.

Ning Qingxi stepped forward to check the effect of the explosion. Sure enough, with only a slight change in the ratio, the effect of the explosion was significantly enhanced.

The commotion the three of them made on the mountain became louder and louder. At first, the people down the mountain could only hear a faint sound, but later it was deafening!

Many old people knelt down on their knees and kept bowing towards the mountain.

"The mountain god is angry! The mountain god is angry! Kneel down and apologize to the mountain god!"

"The mountain god appears! Please the mountain god bless our village!"

"I hope the God of the Mountain will bless our village with good weather this year!"

"God of the Mountain bless my wife to give me a big fat boy!"

Village head Ning knelt down on his knees, muttering, "May the God of the Mountain bless our village with good weather and good weather this year!"
