When Dao Xiaoyi came back, his face was full of fatigue. The cart behind him was piled with sacks. He was pulling three carts in a row, and an old man wanted to weigh them for inspection.
Song Yuehua smiled and stopped him, "Just take it to the big house in the clan to be weighed. It's a nuisance if it weighs thousands of kilograms of things and is blocked here."
The moment Zhou Lizheng raised his head from the account book, he was immediately shocked, "Baozhu?"
Zhou Baozhu and her husband looked at Zhou Lizheng with red eyes, "Dad, I'm back."
"No..." Zhou Lizheng said, "Why are you here..."
Ji Ming said at the right time, "Village head, Dao Xiaoyi can use potatoes to exchange for people. I will use 4,000 kilograms of potatoes to exchange for two people. It shouldn't be a big problem."
Zhou Lizheng looked at him without saying anything.
Ji Ming chuckled and said, "Besides rice, I also have potatoes. As fellow villagers, I won't make money from you. I buy them at 5 wen per pound, and I sell them to you at the same price. If you need anything, come and register early."
After that, he sat down in front of Li Zheng Zhou and said, "Li Zheng, I brought Aunt Baozhu and Uncle Chen here to ask for your help."
"What convenience?" Zhou Lizheng asked.
Ji Ming pointed at the gate and said, "I sell grain in the village, so I have to go in and out. It's not easy to open and close the gate. Please don't think I'm a bother."
"This is nothing." A villager nearby said, "If you really want this price, then you're doing a great favor for our village. Opening a door is nothing."
"Yes, now the price of potatoes has risen to 15 cents per pound. This guy really didn't make any money from us!" Many people responded.
Who would have thought that at this time Song Yuehua suddenly said, "Why is it not a problem? The trouble of him coming in and out is secondary. I am afraid that he will attract some bad guys and target our village."
"Daya, what do you mean?"
“I think that makes sense…”
"well……"
There was a quarrel at the entrance of the village.
Ji Ming looked at Song Yuehua helplessly and said silently, "Add more money!"
Everyone looked at Zhou Lizheng and asked, "Lizheng, please tell me what we should do."
Zhou Lizheng glanced at Song Yuehua and said, "Guarding Zhangmen, but not even getting food in, isn't that stupid? You should buy food, buy food, and the people in the village should work together to survive this year's natural disaster. As for Baozhu and his wife..."
Zhou Baozhu immediately said, "We are opening the door to deliver food for the sake of our fellow villagers. Brother Ji, you don't have to try to please us. 4,000 potatoes cost 20 taels of silver. My husband and I will pay for it ourselves..."
After saying that, Mr. Chen also took out 20 taels of silver from his bag and handed it to Ji Ming.
Ji Ming led the people to the side and said, "Everyone who needs to buy potatoes, line up and come over to register."
Auntie Fat squeezed to the front and said loudly, "Write it down for me first. I want 1,000 kilograms."
"No," Ji Ming said, "For a household of two, the maximum is 200 kilograms, and for a household of four, the maximum is 500 kilograms."
"What about the three of us in my family?"
“There are seven people in my family!”
Song Yuehua was pushed aside by the villagers. She took the opportunity to call Wei Da and Duan Yidao to push the potatoes back together. After the potatoes were swapped at the Song family, they were pushed to the clan. After several rounds, the total number of potatoes was 6,000 kilograms.
Dao Xiaoyi's mother was also very grateful to Song Yuehua. If Song Yuehua hadn't stopped her, she would have almost kowtowed to her.
Song Yuehua said to the mother and daughter. "Go find Uncle Dafu and rent a house in the village. There is a lot of work in the village recently. As long as your mother works hard, she can get some food."
Dao Xiaoyi walked to the door and kowtowed to Song Yuehua, "Thank you, Boss."
Song Yuehua was startled.
After everyone left, Duan Yidao sat at the table and drank large bowls of cold water.
After drinking, he wiped his mouth and said, "It's a good thing I brought Ji Ming with me today, otherwise, I'm afraid Xiaoyi's mother wouldn't come out so easily."
"Dao Xiaoyi's father is greedy for life and afraid of death. He wants to drag others down with him. In the past, Xiaoyi's wages were all given to him. As a result, the wife at home almost starved to death because of him. I understand why the girl didn't think of taking her father with her."
Dabao and Xiaobao just came back. When Dabao saw Master Duan running towards him, Master Duan lifted Dabao up and put him on his lap.
Song Yuehua asked with a smile, "Isn't this kind of person difficult to deal with?"
Duan Yidao laughed and said, "If it were me, I would have just robbed it. When Ji Ming pretended to be Dao Xiaoyi's creditor and showed his machete, that guy was like a weakling. Without saying a word, he pushed his wife out to pay off the debt."
"He believes such things?" Song Yuehua found it unbelievable.
Duan Yidao touched the scar on his face and said, "I heard that my face is more convincing, and that guy is also very good at talking. If I wasn't in the same group with him, I would have believed it."
Song Yuehua burst into laughter.
At this moment, Ji Ming ran over, his face looked a little bad. He came to find Duan Yidao, "Master, something happened at home, I need your help."
Duan Yidao took Dabao down, stood up and asked, "What's wrong?"
Ji Ming hurriedly said, "Sister Huang went back to Caiyun Village to pick up her ex-mother-in-law, and she hasn't come back yet. I don't know if something happened. Please accompany me."
"Walk."
The two of them left quickly without saying a word.
Song Yuehua pondered in her heart, wondering what happened to Huang Damei. The worst case scenario was that Caiyun Village was also robbed. Aunt Lin's family and several farmhands on Dongshan Mountain were all from Caiyun Village. Aunt Luo used Liu Xue's quota and went to Caiqu Village to pick someone up today...
"Big sister," Xiao Bao reached out and touched Song Yuehua's brow, "Chen Jiali was beaten and cried today."
