The Valiant Farmgirl's Blackhearted Husband Wants a Hug Chapter 156

Chapter 156 156 People who have experienced famine

As the drought continues, food prices will definitely rise.

She didn't have much savings in her hands, otherwise she would continue to stock up on food in large quantities.

Now that she already knows what will happen next, she also has to remind her family members.

It was only then that her father found out that he had been hollowed out.

She wanted them to stock up on food, but it was not easy.

"It's not news, it's already gone up." Qin Dazhuang frowned.

"I went to a stall yesterday, and I heard more than one person talking about it."

"Before there were only one or two grain stores, but now it is said that all the grain stores in the west of the city have raised their prices."

"Brown rice and noodles are now generally sold for three cents a pound, and some grain stores still sell three and a half cents!"

"The drought will continue this day. If we can't harvest the grain this autumn, the price of grain will have to go up."

Qin Dahu and Qin Erhu became bitter after hearing this.

"Today, I originally thought, go to the grain store and have a look, and buy some grain back with money. But—"

"But—cough—" Thinking of what happened at home, Qin Dazhuang couldn't wait to slap his ears.

He really regrets it...

Qin Xiaoyao hurried forward and supported his father.

Help Qin Dazhuang smooth his qi.

"Dad, don't be angry! Your body is not worth it if you are angry!" He said while helping Shunqi.

Qin Dahu and Qin Erhu also got up worried.

Seeing Qin Dazhuang slow down, he felt relieved and sat down again.

"I'm fine." Qin Dazhuang calmed down and said to his daughter.

motioned Qin Xiaoyao to go back and sit down.

Qin Xiaoyao returned to his position.

"It is necessary to store food." Then, Qin Dazhuang said to Qin Dahu and Qin Erhu.

The two brothers looked stiff.

After looked at each other, Qin Dahu looked at his father.

"How much?" asked.

"Look at the two of you, how much money you have."

"If you have enough money, you can save six or seven hundred catties. If you are not rich, you have to save two hundred catties." Qin Dazhuang said.

Qin Dahu and Qin Erhu were both shocked.

"So much?!" Qin Erhu said directly.

Qin Dazhuang glanced at his second son.

"Not much."

"If the grain is not harvested this autumn, the price of grain will not come down until the next autumn harvest."

"This... maybe it's still good. If it's the same as it was twenty-five years ago, it might be even worse when it encounters such a catastrophe."

Facing the suspicious eyes of his two sons, Qin Dazhuang sighed.

I will tell you about the disaster that happened in Lingquan Town twenty-five years ago.

"The drought was much worse than it was five years ago, and it affected a wider area."

"After the drought, there was another plague of locusts, which almost wiped out all the crops in the fields around Lingquan Town and various villages."

"Someone sold their sons and daughters, and even changed their sons for food."

The three brothers and sisters of the Qin family were all shocked.

Listening to Qin Dazhuang's narration, on a hot day, I actually felt a little chill in my heart.

"That year, my mother and I were married. It was also thanks to your mother's foresight that after finding out that the situation was not right, I paid the dowry and bought 200 kilograms of grain in advance. Our family only carried it over later."

The three brothers and sisters sighed in relief when they heard this.

"So, when there was a drought five years ago, did you buy several hundred catties of grain in advance?" Qin Dahu suddenly remembered this and asked Qin Dazhuang.

"Yes." Qin Dazhuang replied.

"Only those who have really experienced famine know how terrible the lack of food is." He sighed again.

The three brothers and sisters fell silent.

"If your family has spare money, don't forget to stock up on some food." Qin Dazhuang said, and looked at Qin Xiaoyao again.

Qin Xiaoyao smiled.

"Don't worry, Dad. I've already stocked it up." He said.

Qin Dazhuang was taken aback.

"Oh? How much?" I was a little surprised.

"2,000 pounds of rough noodles, 1,000 pounds of brown rice, and some dry seasonings."

"Anyway, just a few people in my family, I'm afraid it will be fine for two years." Qin Xiaoyao said directly.

With the addition of the grain in the cellar, we can eat another five or six years.

Of course, she made an agreement with the beauty that the food in the cellar was a secret and could not be disclosed to the public.

"So many?!" Qin Erhu looked at his youngest sister.

Qin Dahu and Qin Dazhuang are no exception.

Qin Xiaoyao smiled embarrassedly.

"Hehe, I'm not just hoarding to eat."

"I feel that there is a high probability that the price of food will have to rise in the future. If it really rises, you can make a profit by selling it."

"It doesn't matter if it goes up or not. I'm going to open a porridge shop next year, so I can also use up the food at home."

Father and son nodded.

agrees with Qin Xiaoyao's idea.

"Then my family should stock up on 400 catties, and 200 catties each for brown rice and brown noodles. Enough for our whole family to eat for two or three months." Qin Dahu said.

"My family also hoards four hundred catties." Qin Erhu followed.

"If we really want to catch up with the catastrophe, 800 catties of food should be enough."

Qin Dazhuang nodded.

"Then you brothers should do it as soon as possible, lest it be late and the food price will continue to rise."

"Hey, don't worry. When the sun goes down, I'll go with the second child!" Qin Dahu said immediately.

Qin Erhu also nodded.

Qin Dazhuang was relieved, and the three brothers and sisters chatted about other topics.

Qin Xiaoyao chatted with the father and son, and didn't get up until about three in the afternoon to say goodbye.

It's not that she wants to go, but she has to go back to the foreskin.

Laifulou is still buying her preserved eggs in large quantities.

But the second brother said that the meat demanded by Laifulou has decreased, and the business should have declined a bit.

When she goes to deliver tomorrow, she will have to ask Uncle Zhao about the situation.

See if you need it or not, and adjust the number of preserved eggs per day.

After all, there will be too many preserved eggs to sell, and even her family will not be able to eat them.

In addition, it is hard to say whether she will be able to open a porridge shop when the disaster strikes.

The Qin family, father and son, saw that the sun was rising, and they all wanted to stay with Qin Xiaoyao for a while.

Qin Xiaoyao said, if she walks the alley, she won't get much sun.

The three father and son let Qin Xiaoyao leave.

As soon as he walked out of the shade of the tree, Qin Xiaoyao felt a wave of heat hit his body.

Immediately, I stopped thinking about it and left quickly.

After leaving Qin's house, Qin Xiaoyao quickly detoured into the nearest alley back to Song's house.

Then we shuttled for a while, crossed the street, and walked through several alleys for a while, and finally returned to the Song family.

heard the knock on the door, it was Song Yunlai who opened the door for Qin Xiaoyao.

Seeing that her sister-in-law was back, Song Yun looked happy.

asked about the Qin family.

Qin Xiaoyao didn't rush to answer, but went back to the room and went to Song Que first.

At this time, Song Que was also up and writing in front of the desk.

Seeing Qin Xiaoyao come back, a hanging heart is considered to fall to the ground.

Qin Xiaoyao entered the door and saw ready-made tea on the coffee table beside him, so he walked over and poured a cup.

Then he poured another cup from the teapot and poured it down again.

"It's so hot, I feel like I'm about to lose my life after such a long walk."
