Chapter 172 Food Price Rise



At this point, he couldn't help but sigh. He knew that this natural disaster would always have a certain impact on them. It might not cause much panic in the countryside, but it would be different in the city.

Now I am afraid that if something goes wrong, something will happen at home.

"Who says it's not true? Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy food." When Qiao Yue said this, she thought of her eldest brother who had queued up to buy food some time ago, but he didn't buy much after waiting in line for a whole day. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but worry.

The snowstorm had little impact on City A, but the lack of food made everyone panic.

Su He thought of her husband and future son-in-law who were still in the provincial capital. She didn't know how they were doing now. They hadn't sent any messages back, which made her very worried.

Therefore, the black market is crowded every day. Fortunately, the black market is now open at night, otherwise you will definitely be caught.

"Brother Xu, the pork we bought is sold out. Should we start slaughtering the pigs?"

After listening to his subordinates' reports, Lao Jin hurried to ask Xu Qi, but his face was full of joy. It was clear without looking that they had made a lot of money this time.
