The era of farming is so sweet

Chapter 14 14. Transactions
Before he got close, the sentry came over.

"What?"

This is because they are afraid that someone will come and arrest them, so there are special sentries.

In this day and age, being caught in a private transaction is a major crime of speculation.

Just watching Zhixia appear alone, looking at her with some uncertainty.

It's five meters away.As long as one is wrong, I am ready to flee immediately.

The atmosphere looked a little tense.

Zhixia turned sideways to reveal the backpack behind her, "It's in stock."

It means that I am here to trade.There is no other meaning.

Looking at the big backpack behind Zhixia.I understood what she meant, and then moved out of the way, "There is still an hour of daylight."

It means there is still an hour left.

Zhixia nodded.

He took out a two-pound rice bag from his small satchel.

Handed it to him, it was his membership dues.

Pass him and keep going.

The person behind him looked at the bag in his hand in surprise, through the touch of his hand.

Knowing that it is rice, it weighs at least two catties.

I met a generous owner today.To give so much.

Zhixia walked among the crowd, "Shaka, where is the energy?"

"In front of you on your left."

Left front?Following Shaka's prompt, Zhixia looked up.

It was an old woman with a stooped figure in a black smock.

His face was covered with a long scarf.

Beside him stood a man carrying a bamboo basket.

Just looking at the man's bamboo basket, he waved his hand.I mean don't want his stuff.

Or feel that there is nothing she wants.

Watching the man walk away, there was no one left, so he stepped forward.

Zhixia approached the old lady.

Lower your voice and make your throat a little rougher.

"Grandma, do you want something?"

The old lady listened and looked at Zhixia.

His face was hidden under the mask, only a pair of shining eyes were seen.

Glittering in the night.

Just because of this pair of spiritual eyes, she also planned to make a deal.

No way, the time is almost up.Most of it is whole grains here.

The daughter-in-law and children at home are all waiting to eat.

"want."

After a pause, he still spoke out his request.As for whether she can change it, she doesn't have much hope.

"Is there any fine grain? I have a confinement wife at home. I want some fine grain."

Refined grains...that's really good.All the grains in her bag are fine grains, and she doesn't have any coarse grains.

Even cornmeal is peeled and screened.It is different from the coarse grains of this era.

"How much?? The price may be a little more expensive."

She didn't say how much it was specifically, because she didn't know the prices in this era yet.So a vague word was given.

The prices on the black market should be about the same. She naturally understood what she meant when she said that.

Just what is the energy that Shaka said? ?How should I find an excuse to let her take it out?

When the old lady heard Zhixia's words, there was a trace of worry on her face.

"Young man, money...I don't have any on me, I only have this thing. I want to exchange for three catties of fine grain."

She didn't dare to ask for extra things, as long as she could have fine food for her daughter-in-law to breastfeed, it would be enough to confine her.

He quickly showed his things in his hand, and put them away immediately.

With just one glance, Zhixia saw it clearly.

Shaka kept urging her in her mind.

"Quick, I feel it, the energy is on what she just took out. Hurry up."

Zhixia was also stunned.

Just that one glance made her extraordinarily amazed.

That stuff is real.

Necklace in gold and emeralds.Taking advantage of the ray of light in the sky, she saw that it was emerald green.

It's just... It's a pity to exchange three catties of fine grain for such a good thing.

Seeing Zhixia's hesitation, the old lady thought that Zhixia didn't want to change this thing.Anxious on the face.

This boy was the only one she met who had fine grains.Although he didn't say it clearly, she could hear the meaning of what he said before, so she didn't want to miss it.

"Boy, this is all I have. Please give it to me."

There was a hint of pleading in his eyes.

There is no way, the daughter-in-law at home is still waiting.The little grandson who was waiting to be fed was so hungry that he had nothing to eat for two days.

Coarse grains are too rough, and the child's throat is so delicate that he can't swallow it at all.The daughter-in-law doesn't have much milk, so she has no choice but to try her luck on the black market.

With fine grains, children can also drink some porridge water.

Zhixia sighed softly, "Old lady, I didn't say no. It's just that it's not worth exchanging three catties of fine grain for such a good thing."

Hearing Zhixia's words, the old lady breathed a sigh of relief.

"There is nothing worthwhile in this era. You can't eat or wear it, and it's a disaster to be discovered. Now it's worth it to exchange rations for my daughter-in-law."

My heart has completely let go.That's how it is in this era.It's hard to keep these things.

Zhixia understood the helplessness in her words.Put down your bag.

"Good. Give me your pocket."

Seeing Zhixia put down her bag, she excitedly handed over her pocket.

Zhixia pretended to be flipping through her bag.

In the old woman's bag, I put three catties of white rice, two catties of millet, and a piece of fat and thin pork belly.

I also filled brown sugar and white sugar.A bottle of cooking oil was also given.There is a small bottle of sesame oil and a box of eggs.

Finally, think about it, quickly operate the sandpaper to polish the things on the milk powder can.

Put two cans of powdered milk in it.

Seeing that Zhixia kept filling her hands with things, the old woman was a little at a loss.

"Young man, you have too much stuff."

Zhixia shook her head, "It's not much, your stuff is worth it. Speaking of it, I've taken advantage of it. You can accept these things without worry. Those two tin cans contain milk powder for children."

Zhixia tied the pocket and handed it to the old woman, who also handed the things in her hand to Zhixia.

With the things in hand, Zhixia carried the bag on her back.

"If you use something, don't keep the rest."

After giving an order, he turned around and left.

Seeing Zhixia walk away with tears in her eyes, the old woman picked up her bag and left.

Zhixia walked to a corner.One flashed into the space.

Under the illumination of the light, the emerald is even more beautiful.

Shaka flew to Zhixia. "That's it, I can feel the breath of energy. Give it to me quickly, I'll absorb the energy from above."

energy?Zhixia looked at the jade necklace in her hand, could it be that the jade is the energy that Shaka needs.

"You mean the emerald on it is energy?"

See Zhixia pointing at Jade.Shaka nodded.

Zhixia frowned, "There are jadeites in the shopping mall opposite, why didn't you absorb them?"

"Those are all new things, and they don't have any energy at all. It's different from this, how should I put it, it's just a sky and a ground."

Zhixia understood what he said, if she read the thing in her hand correctly, it should be an emerald made of glass.And those grades in the mall are too low.So it contains no energy.

It's just that it would be a pity if such a good thing lacks the emerald on it.
