In their previous lives, Su Yin, her mother, and her sister-in-law were brutally mu*dered by a mob. In a twist of fate, all three were reborn together.
Before the mob could reach their villag...
This price can be said to be very high. In the past, good millet rice was only 180 wen per dou, and aged millet rice only cost about 80 wen.
Now aged millet is sold for 180 wen per dou, more than double the price.
Su Yin picked up the aged millet rice and smelled it. It had a musty smell. This kind of millet rice was worse than the aged millet rice she had bought before. It seemed that the price had more than doubled.
From the price of food, Su Yin felt more clearly that troubled times were approaching, and he was afraid that the price would go up in a few days.
Once the refugees arrived, people would rush to buy this moldy millet.
Su Yin felt the silver in her pocket. Her mother gave her about three taels of silver, and she only had half a penny of silver. Her aunt-in-law gave her a silver hairpin, which was about two and a half taels. Her total assets were only about six taels.
One tael of silver can buy five and a half dou of aged millet.
If you buy normal millet, you can only buy four dou.
With six taels of silver in total, even if all of it was used to buy aged millet, at most one could only buy about thirty-three dou of rice. But the silver cannot be used to buy only this.
"Hey, give me ten dou of millet and thirty jin of flour."
The waiter asked casually, "New or old?"
"Old stuff."
The waiter quickly packed ten dou of aged millet and thirty jin of flour, making up an even number, and paid two liang and four qian.
Ten dou of rice plus thirty jin of flour, the two together weigh one hundred and fifty jin. It was inconvenient for Su Yin to take so many things with her to buy other things, so she temporarily left them in the store and came back to pick them up after buying other things.

【Note 1: The monetary system of the Yong Dynasty
Currency: One gold is equal to 10 taels, one tael is equal to 1000 wen, that is, one string of money. One qian of silver is equal to 100 wen, so one qian is equal to 100 wen.
Weight: One shi is equal to 10 dou, 1 dou is equal to 12 jin, and 1 jin is equal to 16 liang. In the future, we will focus on the ancient method and not bring in the modern jin and liang. 】
