Not only firecrackers, but he even prepared paper money for the sacrificial rites.
People in the Anping area worship their ancestors on New Year's Eve, and every household has to prepare paper money.
The things he brought in his carriage now, while not entirely complete, were almost everything the people of Chijia'ao needed.
After all, the people of Chijia'ao have no shortage of things like charcoal and meat.
If she guessed correctly, the last carriage was probably filled with grain, mainly coarse grains and flour.
Of course, there is also rice and wheat flour, but the quantity is definitely much less than that of coarse grains and flour.
Sure enough, after Chi Qing finished moving the two large jars of firecrackers, the curtain of the fifth carriage was lifted.
What came into view was grain wrapped tightly in tarpaulin.
Chi Qing carefully lifted a corner of the oilcloth, and only after seeing the bags of dry grain did he let out a heavy sigh of relief.
With these things, he could finally rest easy.
They have enough food stored at home to eat as much as they want for several years.
But if, as Father implied, the harvest will continue to be bad, then there won't be enough to go around for the villagers.
Now that my aunt has opened a general store, she has these grains to sell to everyone.
Given the special location of their Chijia'ao, as long as people are not allowed to go up the mountain, they should be able to be self-sufficient for a year or two without any problem.
Seeing the relieved look in her nephew's eyes, Chi Yu glanced helplessly at Chi Qiao.
She still doesn't understand what her eldest brother said to her second and third brothers.
But one can vaguely guess that everyone probably knows what's going on.
It seems that the few people who are concerned about food security are worried about the food supply.
There's really no need to worry about that!
Her space has arable land and produces grain.
Don't be fooled by the fact that it's uncultivated land; the yield is really good, almost like there's a bonus.
Currently, the vegetables grown in those two small plots of land yield a higher output than those grown in the best dry land outside.
She planted nearly an acre of potatoes and sweet potatoes in her space.
These two crops are already high-yield crops, and with the added benefit of space, their yield should exceed that of a small plot of land.
Even if each type only occupies half a fen of land, the yield is still calculated in hundreds of jin.
At that time, if 100 catties are used as seeds, even if only one mu is planted, the yield will be several thousand catties.
What if, with the added benefit of the available space, there are tens of thousands of kilograms of sweet potatoes alone?
By the second half of next year, she should be able to provide at least several thousand kilograms of sweet potatoes and potatoes for everyone to plant.
By the year after next, everyone will no longer have to worry about food.
Especially sweet potatoes; when growing them, you don't have to worry about soil fertility at all.
When she gets to her space, she won't plant sorghum or anything like that; she'll use it all to grow these things.
She should be able to make a fortune selling these seed products.
The fish in the pond, who knew perfectly well, wasn't worried about food at all.
She had seen it; the grain in her cellar alone, all kinds, must have weighed tens of thousands of kilograms.
There are more than 300 people in Chijia'ao. It is not easy for each household to go down the mountain, so they usually buy some food to store.
Therefore, even if she distributes all the grain, it will at least ensure that everyone has enough to eat and drink for more than half a year.
If we're frugal, two years might not be a problem!
Of course, this is on the premise that no awful relatives or the like come seeking refuge.
Chi Qing, unaware of his aunt's unwavering conviction, said to Chi Qiao and Chi Yu, now that he felt relieved:
"Aunt, Aunt, you go ahead with your work. I'll go and entertain Brother Qin and the others."
I reckon my older brother will be here soon!
Brother Qin is a good friend of my elder brother. As long as my elder brother comes, everything will be fine!
