He definitely doesn't have enough money to buy materials with his current five yuan.

Therefore, we must come up with a solution.

Chen Yifei remained calm, believing that he would eventually find a way forward by exploring various avenues.

Sure enough, an old man came towards us from the square, pushing a cart full of vegetables, his forehead covered in sweat.

I was so tired that I collapsed on the ground.

Chen Yifei walked over and sat down next to him, saying, "Uncle? Is there anything I can help you with?"

Seeing his enthusiasm, the old man began to complain, "I pushed my vegetables around selling them, but I didn't sell a single one. I had to hide and live in fear! My forehead was covered in sweat, and I was afraid of everything... I can't do it anymore."

"That's when I realized there's a big square here, but there's no shade, and my vegetables wilted after being in the sun for a while."

"I'm too old for that. Don't these city people eat vegetables?"

Of course he'll eat! If he's living in fear all day, afraid of being caught for speculation, how can others buy his stuff?

Chen Yifei had an idea: "How about I buy this whole donkey cartload of vegetables?"

The donkey cart was loaded with vegetables, including cabbage, bok choy, fennel, a lot of sweet potatoes and potatoes, as well as scallions, ginger, and garlic. It looked like the vegetables were grown by the farmers themselves and brought over directly from the ground.

The soil is all fresh!

Hearing Chen Yifei say he would buy them all, he was somewhat surprised: "You really? Buy them all?"

"If you want to buy some, I can get you some more!"

"How will you eat it if you buy it?" the old man asked warily. He was afraid the old man would try to scam him, but also afraid he wouldn't be able to sell the goods. He was quite conflicted.
