Everyone entered Yuncheng.
Many people were walking on the streets of Yuncheng, some even holding rice and grains, and it seemed that they were preparing to pack up and leave.
"Let's go buy some rice, otherwise we don't know where we will get more food later." Qi Yanxuan said to Shen Yanqing.
Even if there is rice in the future, it will only become more and more expensive, and after a natural disaster, you won’t be able to buy food even if you have money.
It is better to exchange the silver and money for food.
Seeing this, the village chief said to the villagers, "Everyone should stock up on food. Food prices have risen, and we don't know if we'll be able to buy it in the future. At least one person from each family should stay to look after the food, while the rest go shopping."
Qi Yanxuan actually wanted to stock up on some supplies as soon as possible. Such opportunities will become fewer and fewer in the future, and now is a good opportunity.
Seeing Qi Yanxuan eager to try, Shen Yanqing couldn't help but want to laugh. This man is really changeable, sometimes well-behaved, sometimes cruel, sometimes calm, and sometimes jumpy. Can a person be so changeable?
He turned around, said hello to Shen Yanshan, called Qi Yanxuan and walked towards the rice shop.
There was a long queue in front of the rice shop. Qi Yanxuan's eyes flashed when he saw it and said to Shen Yanqing: "Brother Shen, you queue here. I just saw someone walking out of that street with a bag of rice. It should be a rice shop. I'll go there to buy some."
As he was about to leave, Shen Yanqing grabbed him and took out ten taels of silver from his arms and put it in his hand: "I forgot to take the silver."
"Oh, okay." He took the silver and ran around the corner.
Qi Yanxuan walked into an empty alley and his consciousness entered the space.
He took out a thousand-year-old ginseng from the space. This ginseng was obtained by looting a large Chinese medicine shop at the end of the world.
I put the ginseng in my arms and walked out of the alley. On the way, I found an old lady to ask about the pharmacy.
"Ma'am, may I ask which pharmacy in this city sells medicinal herbs?"
Seeing that it was a handsome young man who called her, the old lady smiled and replied, "This Baicaotang in the city sells medicinal herbs. It's a long-established shop with very fair prices. Just keep going straight and when you reach the fork in the road, turn right and you'll see it a short distance away."
"Thank you, Auntie." After thanking the Auntie, Qi Yanxuan walked towards Baicaotang.
Baicaotang
The pharmacy clerk saw someone coming and asked enthusiastically, "What medicine would you like to get, young man?"
"I'm not here to get medicine, I'm here to sell herbs. Do you still sell herbs in your shop?"
When the clerk heard that the shop owner was selling medicinal herbs, he could only say helplessly, "Sorry, my shop doesn't accept ordinary medicinal herbs anymore. The shop owner was planning to take us to find a new owner once the herbs in the shop were sold out."
After hearing this, Qi Yanxuan took out the ginseng from his pocket and handed it to the waiter. "This is not an ordinary medicinal herb. Do you still want ginseng?"
The waiter saw that it was ginseng and didn't take it. "Wait a moment, young man. I can't make the decision on this. Please come with me to the inner room to have some tea. I'll go and invite our shopkeeper over."
As he said that, he welcomed Qi Yanxuan into the inner room and went to invite the shopkeeper.
After half a cup of tea
The man was about forty years old, slightly plump, and had a kind smile on his face. "This guy wants to sell ginseng. Can you show it to me?"
"Of course." Qi Yanxuan handed the ginseng to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper was surprised. After taking a closer look, he said, "This ginseng is at least a thousand years old. I wonder how much you plan to sell it for?"
"How much do you think it's worth, boss?" Qi Yanxuan didn't know the price of ginseng in this era, so he could only let the boss make an offer first.
The shopkeeper thought for a moment and gave a price. "Well, I won't lie to you, young man. The honest price is ten thousand taels. You won't find anyone in Yuncheng who can offer a higher price than me."
Seeing the shopkeeper's honest look and not looking like someone who would be cunning or treacherous, Qi Yanxuan agreed: "Okay, I trust the shopkeeper, then it will be 10,000 taels."
After leaving Baicaotang with ten thousand taels of silver in his pocket, Qi Yanxuan found a ready-made clothing shop and went in.
The boss was a charming woman in her thirties. When she saw a customer coming in, she hurried to greet him. Now everyone was stockpiling food, and the business of the garment shop was really bad.
"Young man, do you want to buy ready-made clothes or fabrics?" the boss said with a smile.
"I want everything. I want all the fabrics, clothes, shoes, quilts in your shop, and even everything in your warehouse."
The boss was stunned for a moment, then realized he had misheard and asked, "Brother, are you saying you want them all?"
"Yes, all of them. Calculate how much it will cost."
Seeing Qi Yanxuan's serious expression and not joking, the boss was immediately delighted. "Okay, okay, we still have silk, cotton, and coarse cloth in the shop... 400 bolts in total, 200 quilts, 500 pairs of shoes, 360 sets of various ready-made clothes, and 600 kilograms of cotton. I'll round off the difference for you, so the total is 4,000 taels."
The boss looked at Qi Yanxuan with a gleam in his eyes. "Where do you need it delivered to?"
"That's not necessary. You go first. I'll ask someone to move it later." Qi Yanxuan rejected the boss's kindness and took out four thousand taels and handed it to the boss.
"Okay, then I'll leave first. Just close the door when you're done moving." The boss took the silver and left happily.
After the boss left, Qi Yanxuan waved his hand and put all the things in the store into the clothing warehouse in the space.
Walking on the streets of Yuncheng, I saw a bookstore at the corner ahead. The owner was looking gloomy and in a daze.
I thought that after I settle down, I could read the storybooks when I have nothing to do.
I spent five thousand taels and bought all the books in the bookstore using the same method.
After the boss left, Qi Yanxuan put all the books into the shelves of the space daily necessities warehouse.
Then he took out a 50-kilogram bag of rice and a 50-kilogram bag of flour from the space. There was really no brown rice in the space, so he could just say that the brown rice was sold out.
After carrying the food, they headed towards the team's location.
I hadn't walked far when I realized someone was following me. I pretended not to know and turned into a small alley.
As soon as I entered the alley, those people appeared.
The people who came were three disaster victims with ragged clothes and messy hair.
When the three men saw Qi Yanxuan walking into the alley, they smiled with ill intentions. The tallest of the three took out a dagger and looked at Qi Yanxuan fiercely, "Boy, leave the food behind and you can go. Otherwise..."
