Chapter 39 The food supply is full



Han Yuchen was brought back by Han Laoba, who had been missing for so many years. He suddenly returned with a child.

Some people say that it wasn't Han Laoba's child at all, but that he picked it up.

Why are you meddling so much? My parents don't understand either, do they?

Yunniang rolled her eyes at Han Mingyuan and snorted angrily, "Do you also despise me?"

Han Mingyuan hurriedly shook his head; how could he dare?

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye, and Han Luoxue's space was full of food.

She also looked at the vegetable package; it contained high-yield potatoes, high-yield radishes, and high-yield cabbages.

Looking at these down-to-earth vegetables, Han Luoxue seriously suspected that the space was designed to suit her current situation.

At this time, what is the most important thing?

High yield, of course!

Few people can eat things that are too refined.

What surprised Han Luoxue even more was that the production cycle of these vegetables was only two days.

She has already collected these kinds of dishes from her space twice.

Fortunately, she managed to get a lot more bamboo tubes, which she and Han Yuchen had cut down.

Knowing she needed strong bamboo, many villagers went out to help cut it. Han Luoxue was extremely grateful and gave them some bamboo shoots, which made everyone very happy.

"Father, Mother, I have to go to town."

Finding a quiet moment when no one was around, Han Luoxue looked worried:

“We have plenty of things now, and I’m going to sell them. What people need most right now is food and vegetables; many people need these. I want to use them to exchange for other things. You see, there’s a famine now, everyone is short of food, but other things are much cheaper. We can easily exchange them and then sell them later.”

"This... Xue'er, isn't this taking advantage of someone in distress?"

Yunniang asked disapprovingly, but Han Mingyuan nodded:

"Xue'er is right, we should replace them as soon as possible. Yunniang, how can this be considered taking advantage of someone in distress? Think about it, what use are they guarding those dead things? At this time, life is the most important thing. Is it worth it to exchange some dead things for a life?"

Hearing this, Yunniang also felt that it made sense.

"Then let your father stay home and look after Mengze, and we'll go together."

Yunniang didn't want her daughter to struggle alone outside, and she wanted to do her part as well.

“That’s fine. You and Xiaoyu can go together. Oh, and ask Uncle Han and Yuchen later if you can both go.”

Han Mingyuan was quick-witted. He knew that his daughter could grow things in her space extremely rapidly, and he wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible.

"We can cook some corn beforehand and store it in a space to keep it fresh. When we get to town, Mom will help me cover it up. We all need to make ourselves look a little ugly."

The family discussed it and quickly started cooking corn in the kitchen. When Xiaoyu came back and heard that she had also gone to town, she was so excited that she almost jumped up.

Han Yuchen and the others didn't object; they were also looking forward to selling things.

...

"Snow Girl has a secret."

Having spent so much time together, how could Han Laoba not see through it? His identity wasn't simple either; he understood this better than anyone else.

"Um."

Han Yuchen simply replied with a faint sound.

"If she really has a lot of food, could she send some to your maternal grandfather?"

Although Han Laoba is no longer in the army, he knows that his brothers are starving.

Things were better when Han Yuchen was around; his military pay wasn't lacking. But now that Han Yuchen has been missing for so long, people are ostracizing him, and the embezzlement of his military pay is chilling.

"This is a letter your maternal grandfather sent some time ago. He said he was about to give up and even considered quitting, but he couldn't bear to leave his brothers who had risked their lives with him."

Han Laoba was also helpless and anxious, but where could he get so much grain?

Let's see how it goes in a few days.

Han Yuchen's eyes were dark. If possible, he didn't want to go back. But his maternal grandfather—did he really have to die on the battlefield?

Those people went too far. Didn't they think about who would guard that side for them if their maternal grandfather lost?

"Sigh, my biggest task now is to protect you," Han Laoba sighed.

Han Yuchen lowered his head; he didn't need anyone to protect him.

It takes two hours to walk from Hutouya Village to the town, but fortunately, my mother and younger sister have been drinking the spiritual spring water, and their health has improved a lot.

"We'll sell them separately later, so please be careful."

"Okay, Xueya, let's find a place with lots of people."

Han Luoxue gave them some boiled corn on the cob, and then went directly to the Liu family's house.

The servant didn't recognize her at first, but after she spoke, he slapped his forehead:

"You've gotten uglier again."

"It's not convenient for one person."

"Hehe, that's true. I'll take you to find Uncle Fu right now. You know what, our young master has been waiting for you so long that he's cried several times."

These words made Han Luoxue think she was a scumbag.

When Uncle Fu learned that it was Han Luoxue, he was also extremely excited.

"I brought quite a lot of things this time, including other green vegetables."

Han Luoxue took out her basket, which was full of various kinds of things, though not many.

Looking at that enormous cabbage and radish...

There were also round red beans, mung beans, and soybeans; Uncle Fu didn't know what to say.

In short, I want it all.

"However, Xue'er, we don't have much food left in our manor. Do you think we can exchange it for something else? Silver or anything like that is fine."

"Silver is fine too. By the way, Uncle Fu, I'd like to ask you for a favor. I'll be coming to town often in the future, and I'd like to inquire if there are any carriages for sale."

"This is generally not available."

There would definitely have been such a thing in the past, but now people can't even get enough to eat, let alone animals. And those who still have carriages in their homes are even fewer.

"However, I can keep an eye out for you."

"Okay, thank you for your help, Uncle Fu. I still have some of these kinds in stock at home. If you need them, you can tell me the quantity, and I'll bring them back when I go to our village."

Uncle Fu's eyes lit up. Although he didn't know where the girl got the things, his household had been looking for food recently.

Because of a picky young master, their food supplies are running low.

"Let me do the math and I'll give it to you in a bit."

"Then I won't bother you any longer. I'll go ask at other homes."

Butler Fu was very shrewd. Would he let Han Luoxue go alone? Of course not, he accompanied her personally.

With Butler Fu leading the way, everything went much more smoothly. In just two hours, Han Luoxue received a supply list.

Moreover, they come to pick up the goods themselves; she doesn't even need to deliver them.

As for the price? With this level of quality, it's naturally several times more expensive than the average one.

However, they also mentioned that they wanted some of the standard quality.

By the time Han Luoxue found her mother and the others, they had already sold all their corn.

Han Luoxue took them for a walk and bought a lot of seasonings.

Han Yuchen knows how to hunt, and when he catches something, he can roast it and eat it.
