The more merchants refuse to sell grain, the more people want to buy grain. Especially at this critical juncture of the border war, everyone regards grain as the lifeblood, not to mention one or two silver a bucket of grain. Even ten Liang silver a bucket of grain, it is estimated that many people will buy it.

Although this kind of marketing means is despicable, it is really easy to use. Businessmen must have made a windfall this time.

A Tao was puzzled: "one or two silver a bucket of grain, but some people are willing to buy it?"

Jiang Weiwei said, "they are preparing for their retreat. If Liangshan pass is not held in the future, the war will spread to Jiuqu county. At that time, no amount of money will be available."

In times of war, food and cloth are the hard currency.

A Tao suddenly realized: "so it is. Fortunately, we brought a lot of food back this time. We don't have to rush to buy food with those people."

Wen Sha noticed that there were five donkey carts parked outside. Looking at the bulging sacks on the cart, it must be full of food. He quickly reminded: "now the people in Jiuqu county are red eyed in order to buy food. You have to find a place to hide your food. Don't let anyone find it."

Jiang slightly raised his eyebrow: "in broad daylight, does anyone dare to rob food?"

"I'm afraid to rob now, but when it's dark, it's hard to guarantee that there won't be any curfews stealing food. Recently, there have been many stealing cases in the town. The county magistrate has to send constables to patrol the town every night and impose a curfew at the same time. After dark, the people in the town are not allowed to go out for no reason. Once they are caught wandering outside at night, they will be punished with a staff of 20 and a fine of 500 for whatever reason. "

Jiang Wei understood: "I see. Is there enough food in your family?"

That's enough.

Jiang Wei said, "anyway, business is not very good recently. You can close early and go home in the future, so as not to be in danger when you go back too late."

Wen Sha sincerely thanked: "thank you, madam. I know."

Jiang Weiwei asked, "recently, strong men have been recruited everywhere. Has anyone in your family been taken away?"

Speaking of this, Wen Sha looked gloomy: "my brother was dragged away by officers and soldiers."

It should have been his eldest son who took the responsibility for the service, but his younger brother took the initiative to take the responsibility. His younger brother said that he had knowledge and could take the imperial examination in the future. He was the hope of his family and could not make any mistakes, so his younger brother robbed him of the service.

Jiang Wei comforted, "your brother Ji Ren has his own appearance. He came back safely."

Wen Sha reluctantly smiled: "I promise you good words. I hope so."

He thought to himself that the sword on the battlefield had no eyes, and he might lose his life at any time. He didn't ask his brother to retreat all over. It didn't matter even if he lacked arms and legs. As long as his brother could come back alive.

As long as you live, it's enough.

This is not only the hope of one person, but also the hope of thousands of families.

……

Jiang Weiwei's family has three stores in the town. In addition to huaiwei grocery store, there are huaiwei rice grain firm and huaiwei inn.

The huaiwei rice grain firm was handed over to Zhang Chi, while the huaiwei Inn was taken care of by Zhou Benxin.

However, because the imperial court wantonly recruited civilian men to transport them to the front line, Zhang Chi and Zhou Benxin failed to escape the robbery. They were all taken away by the government and sent to Liangshan pass. I don't know when they can come back.

Therefore, the doors of huaiwei grain firm and huaiwei inn are closed.

Jiang Weiwei originally wanted to put the grain in huaiwei rice grain store, but Zhang Zhang was not there. She was afraid that someone would steal at night, so she asked the escorts to transport the grain to Qianxue villa near the town.

There is a granary in Chuang Tzu. The escorts carry in bags of grain.

In this way, the task of the escort is over.

Jiang Weiwei settled their wages according to the agreed price in advance.

The escorts left happily with the money.

Jiang Weiwei said to Lao Liu, "please help me look at the grain. Don't let the rats eat the grain."

Old six patted his chest and said he would collect the grain.

Jiang Weiwei doesn't intend to sell these grains for the time being. She wants to keep them for a rainy day.

Originally, Jiang Weiwei planned to have lunch in Chuang Tzu before leaving. If he started now, he must have missed the meal when he got home. It's better to go after eating here now.

But the old six told her something, so she had to change her mind and start ahead of time.

Three days ago, Duan Xiangjun gave birth prematurely and was rushed to the health hall for treatment. Under the full rescue of Zhan Chunsheng, Duan Xiangjun successfully gave birth to a baby girl, and her mother and daughter were safe.

This should have been a happy event, but Duan Xiangjun cried and fainted when he learned that he was born a girl.

Wei Zhang was even more heartless. He just looked at his little girl and turned away.

Until yesterday, he sent a letter of divorce to sue Duan Xiangjun for the reason that there are three unfilial and no future generations.

Now Duan Xiangjun's mother and daughter have nowhere to go and can only borrow to live in the health hall.

Lao Liu motioned Jiang Wei to go back early so that Duan Xiangjun wouldn't make any more moths.

Jiang Weiwei had long guessed that Duan Xiangjun would be a daughter, so she had expected the result.

But Wei Zhang's ruthlessness still exceeded her expectations.

Even if Duan Xiangjun gave birth to a daughter, it was Wei Zhang's own daughter. How could he be so cruel that he didn't even want his own daughter!

Jiang Wei doesn't care about dinner. He asks ah Tao and Gu De to go home quickly.

She has to hurry back as soon as possible to avoid further complications.

Big black pulled his car and ran back to Yunshan village.

Back here after more than four months, everything in the village seems to have changed little, but the popularity of the village is much colder than before.

Because the imperial court pulled strong men everywhere, Yunshan village was not spared. Every family in the village had male soldiers who were conscripted by the imperial court. The villagers were worried that their families would encounter danger on the battlefield. Even the women who used to sit at the entrance of the village frowned and didn't want to do business any more. The entrance of the village was empty.

When the donkey cart entered the village, some villagers recognized Da Hei and shouted quickly.

"Isn't this Gu Ju's big black? Why did you come back suddenly? Did Dr. Jiang and Gu Ju come back? "

Jiang Weiwei lifted up the curtain of the car and looked out. Seeing that the villager was someone he knew, he smiled at each other: "I'm back. My husband has something to do. He hasn't come back yet."

Even if Jiang Weiwei came back alone, many people in the village were excited.

When the donkey cart stopped at the gate of the health hall, many villagers came and gathered around the door of the health hall to see what good things Jiang Weiwei had brought back from Bianjing?
