Thinking of the exorbitant prices of cabbage back then, Chi Yu felt a pang of sorrow and sighed:
"That's true! According to Qin Mu, Lord Fang is a good official."
He will definitely keep things under control and prevent prices from rising.
Since Qin Mu is the one buying it, and the price is the same, it means that Lord Fang agreed to it.
This price must include transportation costs, or perhaps the cost of hiring a bodyguard.
Come to think of it, we were able to get these things only because of Qin Mu.
"If it weren't for this connection, I doubt we could even buy it in the county town."
Chi Qiao nodded: "That makes sense!"
Although the people of Chijia'ao are illiterate, there are quite a few intelligent people among them.
They must know exactly what happened.
Just look at the grain we brought back in two batches before the Lunar New Year, and you'll know.
Every household was hoarding grain as much as possible.
Speaking of which, Chi Yu Shop sold out of grain before the New Year thanks to the grain that Chi Qiao and Qin Mu brought back.
As for the ones sold after the New Year, she asked her brothers to buy them during her postpartum confinement period.
The main reason she decided to sell some of the grain she had stored in her space was because she had already harvested it.
The grain that Shen Kai has delivered appears to be five cartloads, but the amount of grain that the carts can carry is limited.
These five cartloads together weigh only a few thousand kilograms.
In Chijia'ao, there were more than 300 people, which averaged out to just over 10 jin per person, not even 20 jin.
And perhaps some other disasters will follow.
Therefore, without the knowledge of the situation, people naturally believed that the more food the better.
Thinking this, Chi Yu stopped talking.
"Little Fish, with so many drivers, it's not convenient for us to arrange for them to stay outside."
In that case, let your third sister-in-law and Ah Ye's wife move to the main house next door.
The two empty rooms in the west wing are to be arranged by Shen Kai.
"Okay, I'll go talk to Third Sister-in-law and the others."
Because the weather was clear, everyone was busy clearing land, planning to build wooden houses first.
So everyone in Lao Chi's family was busy and didn't even go to school.
Even Liu Lingling and Liu Mei weren't home; they had taken their children out instead.
Chi Yu wanted them to vacate the room, but she had to call them back first.
Fortunately, the two families lived not far from the old house. When Shen Kai and the others finished their dumpling soup, Liu Mei and the others also returned.
Upon seeing the carriages inside and outside the gate, the three of them promptly vacated the house.
The arrival of Shen Kai was perfectly normal for the people of Chijia'ao.
Everyone was busy with their own things and didn't come over to join in the fun.
By evening, upon learning that there was a doctor here, they would ask him out of curiosity when they came to the grocery store to buy things.
Only after learning that the doctor would be staying there for at least a month did he return home with a smile.
For them, having a doctor is good; at least if they have a headache or fever, someone will see them.
Therefore, when they learned that the doctor was hired by Qin Mu, everyone was very grateful to him.
I think Chi Yu has found a good husband this time, at least much better than that Qi Mingyu.
Qi Mingyu only had the title of Xiucai (a scholar who passed the lowest level of the imperial examinations), so they didn't benefit from it at all.
Although Qin Mu's reputation wasn't great, everyone had received some kind of help from him since the various natural disasters.
For example, he transported so many things here to open a general store for Chi Yu.
For example, he helped invite Master Shen to come and teach everyone to read and write.
For example, this time we invited a doctor for everyone.
