"Well. It's two cents more expensive than what they bought at the grain store just now." Qin Xiaoyao said again.

   Wang Xiaomei was shocked again.

   Has the grain in the grain store risen to 18 cents a pound?

   Qin Xiaoyao glanced at Wang Xiaomei, and roughly guessed what Wang Xiaomei was thinking.

   "The price of the grain store is only going up, and there is a high probability that it will have to go up."

   "If you also want to buy food here, within today, I can also sell you some for 20 cents a pound."

   Wang Xiaomei's eyes moved.

   "I - I can only come up with five taels, oh no five taels of money." Quickly said.

  524 coins, this is almost all of her belongings.

   Although she asked her sister-in-law before and got the answer that food prices are likely to rise, she did not put all her savings.

   After all, my sister-in-law also said that she would sell food.

   But now, the situation is quite clear.

  This opportunity, she must not seize it. In the future, the money in hand, the food that can be exchanged, will become less and less.

   A smile flashed in Qin Xiaoyao's eyes.

"good."

  This little girl is really good, she has saved so much money without making a sound.

   However, it is true that this girl is diligent.

  Stalls in the morning and evening, and in the afternoon, weave straw sandals whenever I have time.

   Her money was not easy to come by.

   Wang Xiaomei's face flashed a sigh of relief.

   "However, are you sure you buy all of it as food?" Naturally, she bought food for her eldest brother and father.

   Just subsidize her eldest brother, after all, Wang Dashan really loves this girl. But Wang Laoshuan—

   Okay, that's the little sister's father after all.

   That's all, she didn't interfere too much in this family's private affairs.

   Besides, it is also a good thing for this girl to empty her wallet.

   saved her from saving too much money and gave birth to the thought of redeeming herself and leaving.

   Such a diligent girl, she was reluctant to let go.

   Wang Xiaomei's eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation.

   After a while, he nodded again firmly.

"Um."

   Qin Xiaoyao raised the corner of his mouth.

   "It's done! Fifty-two or four coins, it's exactly two hundred and seventy catties of grain."

   "Give me the money and you can go to the utility room to get the goods."

   "By the way, the price is half of brown rice and half of rough rice."

   "That is to say, both brown rice and rough noodles are sixty-five pounds."

   Sister Wang nodded.

"it is good!"

   "However, can the goods be mentioned later?"

   Seeing Qin Xiaoyao looking at her, Wang Xiaomei quickly said, "I will give the money later."

   Qin Xiaoyao nodded.

   "Yes. But within half a month, the goods must be taken away."

   After half a month, she will go to the grain store to process the grain.

  At that time, it is also a good idea to count how much food is left in the utility room.

   Wang Xiaomei's face flashed a hint of hesitation.

   "Okay." It finally came down.

   After saying that, I went back to the room to get the money.

   Not long after, Qin Xiaoyao got the money.

  Today, just by selling the food, he has harvested nearly 30 taels of silver. Qin Xiaoyao is in a good mood.

   The next morning.

   As expected, the locusts attacked again.

   is just the size and duration, not as big and long as yesterday.

Not long after the locusts subsided, many people came to the Song family's courtyard one after another.

   There are people who come to buy water and bean sprouts.

  Buy water, of course, because water is necessary for life.

   When you buy bean sprouts, you are interested in the cheapness of bean sprouts.

   You must know that the price of food in grain stores is soaring, and bean sprouts are also produced as food.

   The bean sprouts of the Song family are only sold for three cents and two catties, which is a great deal!

   Save a pound of brown rice noodles, how much bean sprouts can you buy? !

   Qin Xiaoyao naturally knew this.

   It's just that under the current situation, she can't go to Ruyi Building to deliver goods, or go to the market to sell bean sprouts.

   These pre-made bean sprouts are too many, and we can only think of small profits but quick turnover.

   However, she also explained the situation to her neighbors.

  Due to the rise in food prices, after the locust plague ends, her family's bean sprouts will follow the rise in food prices.

   After all, according to what she said, the beans she uses next have to go to the grain store to buy them, and the cost is not low.

   Everyone understands this.

   And I am very grateful to Qin Xiaoyao for selling their bean sprouts at a low price at this time.

  Just like that, the Song family had another wave of goodwill in Yongan Lane.

   There are also many people who come to Song's house to buy bean sprouts.

   Even, after learning that Qin Xiaoyao is not restricted, those who buy vegetables must be from Yongan Lane.

   Someone else introduced someone they knew, and the Song family bought bean sprouts.

   So, Qin Xiaoyao, who was still worried that his bean sprouts would not be sold out, found out that it was before night, and today's bean sprouts were sold out.

evening.

  Xiashui Village, the Wang family.

  The father and son of the Wang family, who came back after picking up water, were sitting on the eaves with a dejected expression.

  When the plague of locusts came, the father and son did not dare to enter the mountain again.

  In the morning, I resisted a wave of locusts at home.

   After the locusts subsided, the two cleaned up the yard again. The caught locusts are then dried into dry food.

   There is still less than 20 pounds of brown rice noodles left at home.

   And these brown rice noodles were given by Wang Xiaomei before.

   Considering that there is not much food, since the locust plague broke out, the father and son did not dare to touch the food, but ate locusts.

   But the locusts are dried and not over oiled, so the taste is really bad.

The amount of    is not much, and the two of them are empty in their stomachs.

   "I don't know where your sister is, how is it?" Suddenly, Wang Laoshuan said.

   As soon as the words came out, Wang Dashan looked at Wang Laoshuan fiercely.

   attracted Wang Laoshuan to avoid his sight.

   Knowing that his son had misunderstood, Wang Laoshuan explained again: "I have no other intentions, I just worry about my little sister."

   is really worried.

   After all, when the locusts are noisy, people have to stand outside, and they may suffer a big loss.

   Of course, I also want to go to my daughter for some help.

   Not to mention, the food at home...

  Wang Dashan glanced at his father and said nothing.

   Honestly speaking, his father has changed a lot these days.

   Especially when it comes to dealing with his mother, his father is completely different from before.

   You can tell the little girl…

   That’s all, the change of people can’t be achieved overnight.

   Maybe, he should give his father some more time.

   "When the locust plague is over, let's continue to gather firewood."

   "When the time comes, I will send firewood to the town, and I will go to see my little sister." So Wang Dashan said.

   He was also a little worried about the little sister, but he believed that the little sister would be fine in the Song family.

  There are more green plants in the countryside, and locusts prefer to come.

   In the town, the locust plague may not be so serious.

  Wang Laoshuan glanced at his son.

   "Yeah." After a sound, he didn't say any more.

   Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

  In the absence of locust outbreaks for two consecutive days, the locust plague in Lingquan Town finally came to an end.

  The streets of the town began to become lively again, and order was slowly restored in the town.

  Xiashui Village, the father and son of the Wang family, also went into the mountains to gather firewood again.

   Early the next morning, Wang Dashan drove a cart full of firewood into the city.
