Escape: I rely on the food exchange system to survive to the extreme

Chapter 39 I wish everyone good health on New Year’s Eve and good luck in the coming year.
It rained heavily, and the sultry weather disappeared without a trace.

At night, Mei Qian sat on the bow of the boat, blowing the evening breeze, looking at the low-hanging stars, and couldn't help but sigh for some reason.

Sure enough, it’s easy to make people emo late at night
Xiaomei: [Host, what’s wrong? 】

[Suddenly I found that I would have to cook for myself again in two days, which was a bit melancholy. 】

[Hey~] After hearing this, Xiaomei also imitated Mei Qian and sighed, [How about you ask him to do more while the other person is still there? 】

[Are you treating me like a baby? How many more meals will you make? Do you still do it when you’re not hungry? 】

Mei Qian had actually thought about it this way, but her family was used to cooking meals every day or two before, so it would be strange if her breasts didn't explode when she suddenly cooked every day.

[Also, the firewood collected at home has almost been used. I guess I will have to find a bank with trees to get some firewood tomorrow. 】

It was late at night, and Mei Qian was quite bored watching the night alone, so she just chatted with Xiao Mei.

[I hope it won’t rain tomorrow. The firewood needs to be dried in the sun before it’s put on the boat. 】

[Although the boat roof has been tidied up, I don’t know what will happen if it rains again... Looking at it this way, there are not many reeds and water onions. 】

As Mei Qian chatted, she took a look at the supplies at home to check for any leaks and make up for them.

If Xiaomei's exchange platform system could not only exchange food, it would have suspected that the host was hinting to let it get some other supplies.

"What are you sighing for?"

Suddenly, Mei Qian immediately sat up and looked at Li Baizhou walking out of the cabin. She was about to ask him why he wasn't sleeping, but she heard her father's loud voice in the cabin.

Mei Qian: "..."

Oh, it wouldn’t be good to replace her.

"It's nothing, I just feel that it is not easy to take the boat. I have prepared so many things on the boat, but I feel like I am missing a lot of things in just one day."

After Mei Qian finished speaking, Li Baizhou also came to the bow and sat down, looking at Mei Qian under the stars.

"What are you doing?"

Mei Qian was not used to others staring at her. Her self-protection and anxiety about being seen through by others made her very uncomfortable with Li Baizhou's gaze.

"It's nothing, I just think you are very different."

"Is it?"

"Well, turning salt into snowflake salt really surprised me."

"It's just a fluke. We only have some salt in the house. If it were all gone, it would affect the mood of the family to some extent.

It's not good for his momentum to suddenly weaken on the way to escape. "

Mei Qian sighed and looked up at the sky. Li Baizhou subconsciously raised his head when he saw this, and heard Mei Qian say in his ear:
"My grandma said that if people don't eat salt, they will have no strength. If you don't eat salt when you're farming at home, you won't have the strength to work. If you don't eat salt when you're fleeing, you won't have the strength to run away or get into a dispute with someone.

Even if there is a little bit of hope, we should try and work hard. "

After Mei Qian finished speaking, she turned to look at Li Baizhou and said, "Do you think what I said is right?"

"Well, even if there is a little hope, you should try..."

Li Baizhou seemed to agree with Mei Qian's words, and then asked again: "Then you suddenly discovered that snowflake salt is so easy to make..."

"Hey, it's not easy." Mei Qian interrupted the other party and said, "It looks clean and the salt is quite white, but it's actually a little darker than the one you took out last time. The taste is… slightly bitter.”

"Is it?"

"Yes, although I am very good at cooking, my taste is better~"

gab!

Mei Qian silently evaluated what she said in her heart.

Then Mei Qian turned to look at Li Baizhou, but Li Baizhou still said: "Even so, the cost is actually far lower than what it sold. With such huge profits, it's no wonder that the salt merchants are rich."

As he spoke, Mei Qian silently turned her head to the side and stopped answering. Li Baizhou also realized Mei Qian's resistance and insisted on asking Mei Qian what she thought.

Mei Qian rolled her eyes after hearing this.

"What do I think? How can I, a precarious ordinary citizen, think about it?
I want to eat good and cheap salt;

Salt merchants want to make more money with less effort..."

The imperial court wants to collect many, many taxes.

Mei Qian didn't say the last sentence, only said: "This is not something I should worry about, and I don't have time to think about it."

She seemed to have a lot of identity, but in the final analysis, this person's identity was unknown, and there were people chasing him behind her. Mei Qian felt that this person talked to her too much.

"Instead of discussing whether and how much salt merchants make, it is better to consider the current matter of the Xirong soldiers.

Wherever they hit, we have to run farther.

Seeing that Xing'an Prefecture was all gone sooner or later, the Xirong soldiers leading the attack broke through Yunzhong City early in the morning and walked straight down to the capital.

Although we don’t know what the situation in the capital is now, we are not blind as to what it means to have so many noble families fleeing south. "

After Mei Qian finished speaking, she remembered that Li Baizhou was going back to the capital. Now everyone in the family was asleep, Mei Qian dropped the topic directly back to him and said:
"If you find something wrong when you go back, you'd better run away as soon as possible. As long as you cross the Yuanjiang River, since the Yuanjiang River is naturally dangerous and it's summer, you'll probably be able to settle down for a while."

As for whether those Xirong soldiers can cross the river and carry out another wave of evil, it can only depend on whether Anguo has any powerful generals and decisive emperors.

Mei Qian only said this silently in her heart. She thought of the shame she had suffered in the history of that time and space, and couldn't help but darken her face.

This Anguo doesn't want to learn from the good and the bad!

"what happened?"

Li Baizhou suddenly realized that Mei Qian was unhappy.

"It's nothing. I just don't want to be wandering around like this anymore.

Look at my tits. At such a young age, this is already the second time she has fled like this..."

Mei Qian put the fish bag that she had learned to knit with her mother during the day at hand and casually stretched it out into the water to fish it out.

Nothing was caught.

After finishing speaking, Mei Qian looked at Li Baizhou and warned him: "If the situation in the capital is not good, you better not give up and turn around and run away immediately, you know? Keep the green hills here, so you don't have to worry about running out of firewood."

"I know, I'm not stupid."

Mei Qian: "..."

She didn't think so.

Li Baizhou couldn't help but chuckle: "You little lady, how old are you? Why are you acting like a little old lady? You didn't even tell me that."

"You are not my grandson, does she care about your life or death?"

"Then you care whether I live or die?"

Mei Qian: "...?"

She has a lot of meat to control verbally!
Besides, there are still a few days to get on well with the other person. Mei Qian still hopes that his skills will be stable, so she can say such good things if she can.

"After all, we have eaten together and taken a boat ride together. If you really listened to what I said and turned danger into good luck, you might even think that I am your benefactor~ After all, don't you just listen to my advice?"

Mei Qian's playful answer broke the strange atmosphere just now and made Li Baizhou laugh along with him.

Li Baizhou also followed her joke and said, "If that day comes, I will definitely come to repay the favor."

　I wish you all a Happy New Year in advance!
