My Loyal and Lovely Husband

Chapter 143: Food Price Soaring Up



Wang Hai patted the table. This group of people were usually adults and short adults. When the incident happened, few of them were useful.

“Milord, it is easy to settle the victims who have rushed into Lin Shui County, but they need money. However, the funds for the court have not yet been paid. There is not much money in the bank of the county yamen. We are also in a difficult position.”

The person who spoke was the Liu family’s book of the County Yamen. Speaking of his seniority, he was still the Liu family. He had been in Shui County for ten years now, so he had not been promoted or transferred. It could be said that no one knew the situation in Shui County better than him.

“Your Lordship, why not let the rich merchants in Lin Shui County collect funds and push them down first before waiting for the court’s disaster?”

Liu’s main book thought for a long time and finally said.

“This is a good idea, but the Liu family’s book, this wants money from these merchants, easier said than done?”

Xu Ziqi opened his mouth and looked at Liu Tao’s book with a funny expression.

The more rich the people are, the more they are. These rich merchants usually let their idle away in seeking pleasure be alright. If they collect money, it is as if they have taken their lives.

Wang Hai sighed, both of them made sense. It would take about ten days to go to this Lin Shui County, and the time was even longer.

If he could wait, those victims couldn’t wait. As time went on, things would be going crazy.

“How about this, find an empty seat in the suburbs of the county and build a shed to accommodate these victims. Send a physician to see if there are any sick people.”

Xu Ziqi looked at Wang Hai’s anxious back and smiled faintly. This Wang Hai looked anxious and thought that he was a good official who worried about the country and the people, but he was actually worried about the rise of the next year.

Speaking of which, he is still here to take over Wang Hai’s position. Anyway, he has to do something.

“Milord, leave this matter to the servant, how about it?”

Wang Hai frowned and looked at him with a deep fear in his eyes. Finally, he nodded. He believed that Xu Ziqi would not do anything out of line with such a big matter.

……

When Jin Weiwei and little Rich returned to meat shop, it was already dusk. Looking at Tao Xiaoqing’s exhausted appearance, Jin Weiwei felt that she really needed to recruit a few more men.

When she and Tao Xiaoqing said this idea, Tao Xiaoqing smiled, “Donglai, you don’t have to waste your strength. Call a staff, why not buy a few servants. The place where the teeth are gathered is almost crushed by servants recently. All of them are very cheap.”

Due to the Qingshui County, the number of victims was still increasing.

Jin Weiwei sighed. She only picked a few servants today. If it was in the past, she wouldn’t have bought so much. However, she saw how pitiful these people were, so she bought it.

“Xiao Qing, these are five taels of silver. Go and pick two servants back tomorrow.”

She didn’t want to see such a miserable situation anymore.

“Alas, Donglai, you’d better prepare this rice and noodles. The price of the rice has risen to 30 RMB today. It’s double the price of pork. It’s estimated that it’ll be more in two days.”

After such a reminder, the fatigue on Jin Weiwei’s face instantly disappeared. Right, there were so many victims in Shui County who were lacking in food and the price of rice noodles would definitely rise.

Returning to the room, she took out 100 taels of silver from the space and found little Rich. “Let’s go to Food Store to buy rice and white noodles. By the way, we’ll buy some rice seeds, wheat seeds and so on. “Yes.”

Little Rich nodded, spread the hay in his hand in the kitchen of sheepfold, clapped his hands and walked towards Jin Weiwei.

When Jin Weiwei arrived, there were still many people in the Food Store. There was only half of the rice noodles left in the groove, and the price of the rice had already risen to 35 pieces.

Seeing this, Jin Weiwei sighed to herself. As expected, natural disasters are when merchants make a big profit.

“Dear, are there a bag of rice noodles?”

Seeing such a scene, Jin Weiwei decided to buy it in a bag. She now had more than ten mouths to raise.

Thankfully, her pouch would often be filled with 180 taels of silver.

“Yes.”

The man’s smile was about to reach the back of his ear and he walked behind with Jin Weiwei.

“These, each have 30 bags and send them to Jin’s.”

Jin Weiwei pointed at the pile of rice noodles and said magnanimously.

At this time, the staff from the rice shop laughed even harder. They saw that Jin Weiwei wasn’t wearing much and was still a Big Boss.

When she was calculating the money, Jin Weiwei looked at the string of numbers and felt her heart bleeding.

In the end, it took 180 taels to take all of these things.

She had to sprinkle more rice and be prepared against want into space.

It was late at night when she finally rested. Jin Weiwei ran into space and sprinkled a large pile of rice, planted some potatoes before coming out.

The next day, when Jin Weiwei got up, she saw two more faces in the shop.

“Master.”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

The two of them bowed to Jin Weiwei, looking careful and respectful.

Jin Weiwei was still a little uncomfortable, so she coughed twice. “Well, you guys go ahead.”

“Donglai, where are you going?”

“Go to the Cheng Family Hotel, right, didn’t you see your rich brother?”

Little Rich usually got up earlier than her, and this should be the time he had just finished his martial arts.

“The rich guy went out early in the morning and hasn’t come back yet.”

Jin Weiwei nodded. Forget it, she still didn’t bring little Rich to avoid embarrassment.

……

“Mr. Cheng!”

“Why are you here?” “!”

Jin Weiwei was excited, while Cheng Yu was pleasantly surprised. He had dealt with the Cheng family’s bad things in the past two days, and he was haggard.

“Alas, I came to find you before, but it’s a pity that you had a lot of things back then. What, how did your family handle it?”

“It’s much better. The Cheng Jade Inn has finally reached my hands. You’re here to see me today, right?”

Cheng Yu was still as elegant as jade, but in Wang Mu’s eyes, he was more relaxed, which was only in front of Jin Weiwei.

Wang Mu couldn’t help but sigh. It was a pity that Miss Jin was already married. Otherwise, it would be very happy to marry his mistress.

“Sure enough, nothing can escape your eyes. I came today to ask if you still want my sausage?”

“Of course, this isn’t like you. Tell me, what do you think?”

Seeing Jin Weiwei’s cunning appearance, Cheng Yu couldn’t help but chuckle. She was always like a sly Fox who knew her tricks but feel helpless.

“My rice is ripe. I want to do business with Cheng Yu.”

Then, he put a small sack on the table. The rice she brought out from the space was inside.

“Don’t Miss Jin know that my Cheng family has its own fields?” Why do I want your rice?

Cheng Yu couldn’t help laughing, thinking that Jin Weiwei was joking, but Jin Weiwei handed over the rice to Wang Mu.

“Not everyone has my rice.”

Jin Weiwei smiled and the two little canine teeth looked extremely mysterious.
