Mingxiu thought for a while and said: "Isn't there a grain and oil shop in the town that collects grain? Let's just sell it to them at a discount."

There will be some losses, but not too much. A lot of clues can be seen from Xie Zhan's previous words. In just half a month, the price of food has increased by 10%.

Even though this per cent may not seem like much, the base of food is huge!

Although the reason given by the grain and oil store is that it is late spring and last year's grain harvest was not good everywhere, which will lead to price increases, no one with a little knowledge will believe their words.

It’s not like no one has seen the key. When food prices first rose, some people already started to stockpile food. It’s just that they didn’t do it in an obvious way. Most of them were just like the Ming family in the past, covering up a small amount.

Purchased food many times.

But after all, it was not something that the Ming family did without any signs. In the end, it was noticed by someone who was interested.

For example, explain the show.

Nowadays, the price of grain purchased by grain and oil shops in the city is not low, at least much higher than in previous years. In any case, it is much better than wasting.

Ming's mother thought for a while, although it was a pity to waste a lot of money this time, but it was indeed much better than wasting it.

She didn't hesitate for long, and quickly answered, "Okay, mother will go and clean up now, and we will take the grain with us to sell when we go to town tomorrow."

They purchased small amounts many times, and although they looked inconspicuous, they accumulated a lot over a long period of time, and it was impossible to say that they could not finish the shipment in one trip.

"Don't worry yet. The grain and oil shops are always there. Let's transport it to the town first and let's talk about selling it when we leave."

Mingxiu saw that the price of food seemed to be rising. Although she did not expect to make money from this, it would be good to reduce losses. She also planned to take some of the food on the road.

You can call her a miser or anything. Although she has never experienced the cruelty of war, she has seen it in books. Just thinking about that scene makes her heart feel sad, so now it is only the first clues.

, she wanted to prepare early.

Her abilities are limited. If the war starts, all she can do is to ensure that she and her family have enough food and clothing, nothing more.

This is just a trivial matter, Ming's mother will not refuse, "Okay."

It was getting late now, and the cellar where the grain was stored was dark and the air was thin, making it difficult to light a lamp. Mingxiu thought about asking her mother to come back to clean up tomorrow morning. After all, they didn't miss the time. Mingji had closed down recently.

.

The external explanation was that the owner was coordinating the rent increase, so there was no time to continue operating the business. The business would not reopen until the owner's issues were resolved.

Those diners who had been known to be naughty were quite critical of the host.

Mingxiu didn't think so much at first. At first she just thought that they were all going to leave. She remembered that it didn't make any difference whether she drove a few more days or a few fewer days. Although they were short of money, they were not so short of money.

The level of turnover these days.

"By the way, we still have some harvests in our fields."

Ming's mother was very melancholy. If she had to leave soon, the vegetables in the fields could be harvested, but some of the vegetables that had a longer maturity period would be wasted.

Speaking of which, this matter is really sad.

She didn't expect that there would be so many things to do before moving out. Mingxiu pouted, "Just sell the mature ones to Xianxiang House when the time comes. For this respect, I think shopkeeper Xu is still willing to sell them to me. As for the ones that are about to mature...

"She thought for a while, but there was actually no good solution for this kind of thing, "Let's see who wants to buy our land, and the grain will be given to them for free."

Although it's a pity, it's not a waste. I left in a hurry, so that's all.

Ming's mother sighed, "It's up to you."

Although their land is not much, the location is pretty good, and the house is a brick house that was just built. Ming's mother would definitely not be happy if it was cheaper. No one in the village could afford it, so she had to

Go to town and look for it.

"Let me help you look after me first, don't make this matter known to everyone."

If it weren't for the fact that things like buying and selling a house couldn't be accomplished in a day or two, Mingxiu wouldn't even want to release the news now.

Ming's mother nodded, "Don't worry about this, it will be done properly."

After all, they have opened a shop in the town for such a long time, so they can still handle this matter.

Taking the food and heading straight to the town, the group barely made it in.

It was just because Mingxiu and her parents had forgotten that they needed to pay additional taxes when bringing large items into the town. Although this happened when they set up a stall, it had been a long time and they didn't even have enough on them.

of copper plates.

If there hadn't been a merchant among the people who also entered the town who had enough copper coins to exchange the whole silver ingot with them, maybe Ming's father would have to go to the shop to get the loose money before coming out to pick them up.

"Thank you so much for making this happen."

Ming's father came forward a little embarrassed to thank him.

The goods dealer waved his hand, "Everyone has encountered trouble when going out. It's just a matter of effort, don't take it to heart."

Although he didn't care, Ming's father still insisted on inviting him to Ming Kee for a meal.

The merchants had no choice but to accept it.

"So you are the owner of this shop?" The merchant did not hide his surprise, "I heard from my friends that the food in this shop is very good, so delicious that your tongue can swallow it. It's a pity that it has closed down recently.

, I have never had the opportunity to taste it.”

Ming's mother came out with tea and happened to hear his words. She said with a smile: "Then let's eat with open stomach today. Do you have any taboos?"

"As long as it's delicious, I'm not picky about food!" The merchant waved his hand loudly and started chatting with Ming's father again.

His attitude towards Ming's father was very good, but he was a little disrespectful towards Ming's mother. This attitude made Mingxiu feel a little uncomfortable, but seeing that Ming's father was talking happily with him, Mingxiu couldn't say anything more.

After all, over the years, there are only a few people who can talk to Ming's father.

According to his own words, his name is He Yu, he is from the capital city and makes a living by reselling. He came to the border town to get some specialties from the border town and make a profit at the price.

Such people have existed in all dynasties, and Mingxiu easily accepted the normal explanation.

But Xie Zhan frowned on the side, and he didn't know what he thought of. He never said a word to He Yu, and even if He Yu took the initiative to find him, he ignored him.

Although Ming's father was a little unhappy, he couldn't say much.
