Chapter 24 The whole village is dispatched
Xiao Yunqi gave Shen Qingyu another 300 taels of silver, saying it was for buying soybeans and various tools for her.

Shen Qingyu is not hypocritical: "Just treat it as yours for the children."

The next day, Shen Qingyu went to the town to order wooden barrels, and as soon as he arrived at the entrance of the grain and oil shop, he heard a customer scold: "Miscellaneous grains and noodles cost ten cents a catty, are you still calling people to live?"

One catty of fine grains is exchanged for two catties of coarse grains, and the miscellaneous grains and noodles cost ten cents per catty?

When I entered the shop and talked to the shopkeeper, I realized that the prices of everything had increased.

"The time for sowing is almost over, and it hasn't rained yet, so it's normal for food prices to rise! If it doesn't rain again, the price will increase later. Maybe they won't even be sold!"

This is true.

So now coarse grains cost ten cents a catty, and fine grains twenty cents a catty.

Doubled than before!
Shen Qingyu frowned slightly, thought about it, and decided to go directly to Fucheng.

The donkey cart galloped away, and an hour later, Shen Qingyu entered Fucheng with a disheveled face.

The donkey cart bumped its ass, and the road was still full of dust.

It's really not a human job.

It was not uncommon for the guards at the city gate to be disheartened, and they let her enter the city after charging two cents.

The spacious bluestone road, the pavement with rich goods, and the well-dressed crowd...

Shen Qingyu watched with emotion: Fucheng still has a strong spending power.

Asking people all the way, Shen Qingyu found the largest grain and oil shop in Fucheng.

The idle guy inside saw Shen Qingyu standing beside the donkey cart with a disheveled face, and felt that there was no oil, so he poked the black and thin apprentice beside him: "Ba Jin, you go and receive it."

Bajin looked at his appearance of only twelve or thirteen years old, and when he heard that there was an opportunity to receive him, he was very happy, and immediately came up to greet Shen Qingyu: "This lady has come from a long way? What do you want to buy?"

Shen Qingyu went straight to the coarse grain area: "How do you sell this coarse grain?"

The coarse grains in Fucheng are indeed cheaper than in Hengshui Town, only eight Wen a catty.

Shen Qingyu said directly: "I want 200 taels of coarse grain."

Ba Jin thought he had heard it wrong, so he picked out his ears and asked with a smile, "Can you say it again?"

Shen Qingyu knew that he didn't believe it, so she said what she had thought up a long time ago: "There are many people in our village, and many people came to buy them. They went to buy other things and asked me to buy this. Can you send us out of the city?"

"Wait a moment." Ba Jin turned to look for the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was also taken aback when he heard that a woman actually wanted to buy so much coarse grain. After Shen Qingyu took out the banknote, he finally believed it.

If you have money to make, what is it to deliver goods out of the city?
"No problem." The shopkeeper agreed, and asked someone to load the goods.

A catty of coarse grains worth eight Wen, one tael of silver can buy more than 100 catties, 200 taels of silver...

More than 2 catties of coarse grains!

The price of soybeans has also increased, and it costs 25 Wen a catty.

Shen Qingyu bought another 40 catties of soybeans and spent [-] taels of silver.

A carriage filled with coarse grain sacks followed Shen Qingyu to the edge of the woods outside the city.

Shen Qingyu pointed to the terrain he had found: "Just help me unload it here, they will all be here in a while."

The coarse grain was unloaded, the carriage left, Shen Qingyu waited until there was no one around, and quickly put the grain into the space warehouse.

I bought a lot of food in the town last time, and this time I bought so much that I couldn't finish it by visual inspection.

Careless.

Shen Qingyu put the barrel on the donkey cart to make room for grain.

Before it was finished, the warehouse was full.

"The storage rate of the warehouse is 100%, and the storage rate has reached 100% for the first time. The space is being upgraded..."

With the sound of the electronic prompt, Shen Qingyu was kicked out of the space again.

Hey!
I don't know what new changes can be made in this upgrade?
With anticipation, Shen Qingyu drove the donkey cart home.

I don't know if it's because of drinking the water from the spiritual spring, but the skinny donkey has gained a lot of strength, and has pulled the donkey cart for such a long distance without pulling its hips.

After a trip to Fucheng, it was almost dark when we reached the town.

There is still half an hour to get home!

Shen Qingyu was a little anxious, and urged the skinny donkey to leave quickly.

As soon as I left Hengshui Town, there was a clatter of hooves behind me, and a horse rider came.

Shen Qingyu was about to make way, but heard a familiar voice: "Where did you go? I've searched around for you! The children are dying of anxiety..."

It's Xiao Yunqi.

Xiao Yunqi was angry, and when he saw Shen Qingyu's disheveled face, he was taken aback for a moment: "What's wrong with you?"

Shen Qingyu blinked: If she read correctly, he was worried about himself?
"I went to Fucheng."

I didn't tell my family in advance, no wonder the children were worried.

"What are you going to Fucheng for?" Xiao Yunqi just found out about Shen Qingyu's whereabouts from his subordinates. If it wasn't for Shen Qingyu's coming back and being seen by his subordinates, he would have gone straight to Fucheng!

"The food in the town is too expensive, so I went to Fucheng to buy some food."

Shen Qingyu pointed to the big wooden barrel on the donkey cart: "It's all inside."

"It's two cents a catty cheaper than the one in the town!"

It's two pennies a catty cheaper!
A thousand catties is only two taels of silver cheaper...

"..." The local tyrant Xiao Yunqi was so angry that he was speechless.

want to scold.

But this woman had an innocent smile on her face, her head was gray, and he couldn't swear.

In the final analysis, is it because she has given too little money these years, and she is taking care of three children by herself, and her life is too hard?
Thousands of words, finally turned into a sigh: "Let's go, go home."

With the two of them together, Shen Qingyu was no longer afraid, and finally returned to the entrance of the village when it was dark.

From a distance, I saw a large group of people gathered in front of the house.

What happened?

Shen Qingyu's heart tightened, and he hurriedly speeded up.

"Qing Yu is back!"

"mother!"

"Mother is back!"

"Mom, I thought you didn't want us anymore..."

The three children gathered around, with tears still remaining on their faces.

Wen Che stepped forward to explain.

It turned out that the three children were crying a lot. Xiao Yunqi went out to look for someone but didn't come back. Liu Cuixi came to see what happened and called Li Zheng to come over.

Knowing that it was Shen Qingyu who hadn't come back, Lizheng gathered all the villagers and prepared to set off to find Shen Qingyu.

Everyone has newly made bamboo torches in their hands...

Fortunately, Shen Qingyu came back in time, otherwise no one in the village would be able to sleep tonight...

I have quarreled with many of them, and now they are willing to follow me to find me? !

Surprised, Shen Qingyu thanked and apologized repeatedly, and sent Li Zheng and the villagers away.

Liu Cuixi didn't leave, she was here to give Shen Qingyu a sleeping bag.

When Shen Qingyu saw the sleeping bag with fine stitches, he was very satisfied. Without further ado, he gave thirty Wen, and also gave Liu Cuixi the extra foot of cloth and half a catty of cotton.

Liu Cuixi didn't want it: "Qingyu, you are willing to trust me and let me take it home and make it. How can I still want your things?"

Shen Qingyu grabbed both of her hands without refusal: "Listen to me."

"You can ask Li Zheng to bring the villagers to look for me today. I'm very touched. I used to worry about losing money, and I wanted to quarrel with others, and offended the villagers..."

If Liu Cuixi hadn't told Lizheng today, and Lizheng had stepped forward to take the lead, the villagers might have let her go.

For today's tracing activity that has not yet started, the first person to thank is Liu Cuixi!
