Chapter 4369: Hoarding Food Like a Hamster
After she finished drinking the water in the cup, she asked Zhang Yuanyuan, "Yuanyuan, do you have any food left at home?"
"Yes, do you want it?"
"don't want."
"Then why are you asking this?"
"Of course I want to know how much grain you have stored. You see, it hasn't rained for almost three months, and the grain in the fields will be harvested in more than two months, so do you understand what I mean?"
"You mean this year's grain production will decrease due to drought?"
“Very likely.”
"What should I do? My family only has enough food to last for half a month."
"It's okay. There are still many people who are not aware of this problem, so remember to store more food in the coming days."
"I understand, but my family has a limited number of food coupons. It is definitely not realistic to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to stock up on food, so let's go to the black market to buy food."
“Food is very expensive on the black market.”
"No matter how expensive it is, it will be cheaper than later, so we should stock up now."
"Okay, but don't go to the black market. I'll go."
"That's impossible. If you want to go, let's go together."
"You can't go because you can't run, so I'll go by myself. I'm familiar with the place and nothing will happen to me."
Zhang Yuanyuan still did not agree after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, because in her eyes the black market and danger are equal, and she was worried about Lu Xiaoxiao going to the black market alone.
So she thought about it and said to Lu Xiaoxiao: "Then let's not go, let the monkey go, he runs fast."
After hearing what Zhang Yuanyuan said, Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but shed tears of sympathy for Monkey in her heart, but although she felt sympathy, she didn't object.
Because the monkey and those people in the black market were better done than a 100%-well steak, nothing would happen to the monkey even if he lived in the black market, and she had no objection.
So she said to Zhang Yuanyuan, "Then let the monkey go, but you can only let the monkey buy food for your family. I don't need the monkey's help to buy food for my family."
"Why?"
"Because I'm not short of food, you don't have to worry about not having enough food at home."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Zhang Yuanyuan thought that Lu Xiaoxiao's family had a lot of food stored, so there was no need to buy food, so she nodded to Lu Xiaoxiao.
Then he said to Lu Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, although you don't like eating dried vegetables, it's better for you to dry them more, otherwise I'm afraid you won't have vegetables to eat in the future."
"I understand. Remember to get more sun exposure, too."
"good."
"Then I'll go home. The weather is too hot now. If you don't have anything to do, don't go out, or you might get heat stroke."
"good."
"Then I'll leave." After saying that, Lu Xiaoxiao left Zhang Yuanyuan's house and walked towards her own home.
When she returned home, she drank another glass of boiled water, then went to the bathroom to wash her face, and went back to the living room to make a phone call.
"Hello, who are you looking for?" Scorpion heard the phone ringing and picked up the phone.
"I'm looking for Gray Cat, is he here?"
"Are you Master Xiao?"
"Yes, it's me, so is Gray Cat here?"
"No, he went to the infirmary."
"Went to the infirmary? What was he doing there?"
"Give me an injection. Many of our brothers in the base have fallen ill from heat stroke recently. I don't know when this damn weather will cool down."
Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but frown when she heard what Scorpion said, and then she said to Scorpion: "When Gray Cat comes back, ask him to call me back."
"good."
