They came out this time and brought many specialties from the city.

For example, today's dinner of sweet potato vermicelli has several kinds of meatballs cooked in it, plus hot pot seasoning, which is delicious.

The others also boiled hot water and made lemon tea to drink after the meal, while brother and sister Qin Jia and Qin Lie secretly drank ice cream in the carriage.

In the thatched houses not far from them, every family was hungry.

"Dad, haven't those people left yet?"

"Not yet, we should be setting up camp here."

"Then, aren't we going to find something to eat?" the woman asked somewhat uncomfortably.

"It doesn't matter whether we go or not, there's nothing to eat no matter how hard we look for it."

The man sat on the ground a little dejectedly.

The geographical environment here is not as good as that of Rose City. Looking around, there is not even a hint of green.

Although they have opened up wasteland and planted crops, it is not yet time for them to grow.

"How about we follow the caravan and live somewhere else?" the woman asked the man cautiously.

"If I go to another place, will my life be better?

Isn’t it the same everywhere in Higurashi Province? What should you do if you go to someone else's territory? I can't protect you. "

The man covered his head in pain, as if hating his own incompetence.

Although they don't have enough to eat now, they still have a home. When they go to other places, they not only don't have enough to eat, but their lives are not their own.

"..." The woman tremblingly touched her belly.

"My period didn't come this month..."

The man's pupils widened, "What?"

"It's all my fault!" Then he couldn't help but hit his head a few times.

He couldn't hold it back, life was so miserable, how could he control his desire when he was with his wife.

I just didn't expect that a child who hadn't been here for more than a year would come so suddenly.

"I'm not sure if I'm pregnant, but if I am, what should we do?

Let’s not talk about whether we can eat enough. Even if we can carry her safely until the month of pregnancy, who should we find to deliver the baby at that time?

Even if we don't want to give it up, how can we get abortion pills in a place like this? "

"The man just said that they are a caravan and they have something to sell. Just wait and I will buy you some food."

Maybe it was because he felt that there was going to be a new member of the family soon, so the man who had been so decadent and numb just now suddenly became energetic.

He walked up to Zhao Chen who was sitting by the fire and asked cautiously: "Did you just say that you have something to sell?"

"Yes, what do you want to buy?"

"Is there any food?"

"We have rice noodles, vermicelli, sweet potatoes, potatoes, etc. You can go pick out whatever you want."

Zhao Chen pointed to one of the carriages. There were several baskets placed in front of the carriage.

The man quickly thanked him and went to check, and he saw a lot of food.

He was secretly happy and asked quickly: "I wonder how to sell these things?"

He was already prepared for the price to be very high, after all, he was transporting things to a ghost place like this to sell them.

Even if the price is doubled, it is still appropriate.

Unexpectedly, this brother wearing strange clothes said, "Polished rice costs 20 cents per catty, so does flour, sweet potatoes and potatoes cost three cents per catty, and these vermicelli noodles cost 7 cents per catty."

"What!" The man was shocked.

It’s not because the price is expensive. Of course, the price is indeed not cheap, but it is the approximate price in various countries!

In other words, they are transporting goods into Higurashi State to sell them, but they have no intention of raising the price.

Can such a caravan really make money?

Thinking this way, he just asked.

The little brother smiled and said: "Hey, we are from Rose City, and we live only half a day's journey away from you. We came out this time to select some people from the city who are willing to live in the city.

Selling things is just a convenience, it doesn't matter whether you make money or not. "

"Rose City?"

This is the first time the man has heard the name of this city, but he does not remember that there is such a city in Dongli.

Then it should be from another country, right?

“Which country’s territory is your city?”

"Our city does not belong to any country. Our city has its own city lord. The seven, no, six countries outside have no control over it."

The man didn't believe it, "Can you people in one city resist the army of one country?"

"What's wrong with that?" The little brother was full of confidence in their city.

As a member of the city lord's future guard team, he knew that there were many killer weapons on their city walls.

If someone really attacks their city, not to mention the ten-foot city wall, even those powerful weapons, they can't resist.

As long as the city lord wants to, no one can come within a hundred meters of their city, he is so confident.

Although the man still didn't believe it, he didn't argue anymore.

"What kind of food are these and why are they so cheap?" he asked, pointing to sweet potatoes and potatoes.

"Oh, this is a unique food in our city. This sweet potato is soft, glutinous and sweet, and can fill you up. The disadvantage is that if you eat too much, you will get gas.

As for this potato, it is also a soft, glutinous and filling food, but you cannot eat the sprouted ones. If they sprout, they are poisonous, so you must remember. "

The man pursed his lips, picked up the vermicelli again and asked, "What is this?"

"This is vermicelli made from sweet potatoes. You boil water, put this in and cook it, and it's almost like noodles."

"I want two kilograms of sweet potatoes, two kilograms of potatoes, ten kilograms of vermicelli, and one kilogram of polished rice."

"Okay, do you have anything to pack?"

The man shook his head and took off his shirt, "Wear this."

The little brother glanced at him, and finally put rice in an oil paper bag for him, and let him carry the rest with his clothes.

After buying something, the man hurried home. On the way, he heard his neighbor opening the door a crack and calling him.

"Liu Langsheng, what are you doing there? Do you want to buy something?"

"Ah."

"Did you buy it? Is it expensive?"

"It's not expensive. If you want to buy it, go ahead and they'll leave at dawn."

After speaking, Liu Langsheng went back to the house without waiting for the neighbor to say anything else.

"Vanilla, I'm back and bought a lot of food."

Seeing the package of things, the woman was a little surprised, "So much? Do you still have any money?"

"There are only 102 articles in total here."

"Oh my God, so cheap?"

"Well, you rest. I'll cook you some food. I have something to tell you later."

"Okay." There was a smile in the woman's eyes.

***

People came to buy things one after another, and Qin Jia sat in the carriage and observed.

The refugees here are all from Dongli, and their names are branded on their foreheads.

There are seven or eight households in total. If everyone who comes to buy represents one household, there will be eight households.

In addition to buying things for them, the little brother in charge of selling also revealed some things about their city.

If these people are moved, then their city should be able to add new people recently.
