Chapter 203: Grain for cattle

"This is certainly possible. Now that there is a disaster, we ordinary people can't buy food for relief. This food is naturally very popular compared to money. But how can we change this food?" Li Zhuang took a deep breath and asked with excitement.

Even Xiaomei, who was holding Huang Yiyun's hand tightened.

Seeing this, Huang Yiyun first smiled at Xiaomei, and then gently patted Xiaomei's hand with the other hand.

"A pound of black noodles is twelve copper plates, and a pound of sweet potatoes is 10 copper plates per pound. Brother Li, what do you think?" Huang Congjiang said the price he had exchanged for the fields before.

"Chengchengcheng, the price is not expensive, it's too real. My family exchanged a cow for a thousand kilograms of black noodles and 100 kilograms of sweet potatoes. Now that the disaster is happening, Brother Huang's family, how much food will there be in exchange for? I'm too greedy, Brother Huang, look at how much food your family can exchange for my family. If there is not enough food, just use silver to make up for it."

"Does Brother Li's family have a lot of people?" Huang Congjiang asked.

"My parents are gone at home, just my wife and I, Xiaomei sisters, and a boy." Although Li Zhuang didn't know what Huang Congjiang was doing when he asked about this, he still replied honestly.

"Brother Li, your family doesn't have a large population. I'm afraid it's been a long time since I've exchanged so much food. Now there are almost many families who have started to grow winter wheat. After harvesting the winter wheat in April and May next year, the price of this grain will definitely not be so expensive." Huang Congjiang told Li Zhuang a little tactfully.

"Thank you, Brother Huang, for your reminder, this food! My family really lacks it. It is not only for us to eat, but also for other uses. As long as you have so much food in your family, my family will be replaced." After hearing Huang Congjiang's words, Li Zhuang changed his mind and knew that Huang Congjiang was thinking about it for his own sake, and he was quite moved.

"Dad, you guys will discuss things yourself. Miss Xiaomei and I have something to say. You will call me later when I go back." After Huang Yiyun finished speaking, Li Xiaomei pulled her into her room.

"Sister Xiaomei, is something wrong with your family?" Huang Yiyun asked after seeing Xiaomei close the door.

"You can see that, is it that obvious?" Xiaomei asked.

"It's written on your face, how can you not see it? Sister Xiaomei, you think I'm a sister and want to say something to me, I'll listen to it. If it's inconvenient, forget it." Huang Yiyun touched Xiaomei with one finger and frowned tightly.

"There was something before, but after your family came, the matter was solved again." Xiaomei pulled Huang Yiyun and sat down.

"It's because of the food." Huang Yiyun asked affirmatively.

"Well, yes, before the New Year, my elder brother had already seen a girl and had made a decision. When you choose a good day, you can get married and get married.

However, the disaster has been causing trouble a few days ago, and the marriage between them has been delayed. After this period, the other party did not regret the marriage. He said he would give their family five hundred kilograms of food, so he agreed to marry the sister-in-law I had made before.

However, there has been a disaster now, and my family’s food has not been collected. The food I had previously stored was not enough for my family to eat, and I can’t buy it even if I have money, so my brother’s marriage has been delayed.

Moreover, I am not young anymore and are in love with each other. Both parties have also taken a fancy to each other, so I waited for the appointment. After my brother married my sister-in-law, it was my turn. Alas! But after this disaster, I didn’t have enough food for my family, so the marriage was naturally incomplete.

Now you have your family to exchange for my cows. Now my family doesn’t have to worry about food, and I can also solve my brother’s marriage. As for me, I can wait, and there’s no hurry. Yi Yun, I really have to thank your family. Otherwise, my family will still worry about this?" Xiaomei said gratefully.

"It's okay, Miss Xiaomei, there are so many good men in this world. If this doesn't work, let's just find another family. Miss Xiaomei, we don't have to thank you. We all have to do it, so there is no need to help. Miss Xiaomei, my family has stored some food before, and after changing it with your family, there is still some leftovers.

My father and Ah Mi have discussed it and want to exchange excess food for some money and other things. Look at the people you are familiar with in your village, who needs food? Everyone knows this." Huang Yiyun thought about it and said.

"The food is valuable now. If you buy food in silver, there is a lot of Daniu Village? However, I have to tell my father about this and ask my father to find a real family for you." Xiaomei said immediately.

When Huang Yiyun went out, he also saw Huang Congjiang and Li Zhuang having a good chat.

My sister-in-law and Xiao Meiniang also talked together.

After Huang Yiyun came out, she looked at Huang Congjiang and Huang Caixia and nodded.

"Dad, my daughter wants to say something to you." After hearing Xiaomei's words, Li Zhuang hesitated and looked at Huang Congjiang.

"Brother Li is here." Huang Congjiang urged after knowing what Xiaomei was going to say to Li Zhuang.

"What's the matter? Or did the eldest sister of the Huang family tell you something?" After Xiaomei pulled her father and said to the room, Li Zhuang asked with a stir.

"Dad, the girl Yiyun said that after his family exchanged food with our family, their family still had some food left. What about this food? Their family wanted to exchange it for money, and wanted to find his father to see if anyone wanted to exchange food. At this price, it was the same as the price of our family's previous cows. The Huang family meant that their family was not like the food exchange that made everyone know." Xiao Mei said.

"Is grain expensive now? There are many people in our village who are short of food. My father asked a few families and asked if they wanted it first. If it succeeds, my father tied up a ox cart and went to the Huang family to take it." Li Zhuang nodded and said.

"Brother Huang, I'm really sorry. I have to go out." Li Zhuang said tacitly at Huang Congjiang.

"Xiaomei, go tie up the ox cart, wait for dad to come back, and send it to Brother Huang back." Li Zhuang told Xiaomei before leaving.

Afterwards, Xiaomei and her mother went to the backyard to tie the ox cart.

"I've told this." Huang Caixia asked the eldest sister.

"I said that, I guess Uncle Li went to their village to ask some people close to him. However, Dad, I will finally tell Uncle Li later that if we change the food, we can only exchange a small amount of noodles.

Just replace most of the sweet potatoes and potatoes. These two items are not as easy to keep. There are many of these two items in our house, and it won’t work after being stored for a long time. Of course, it’s better to replace them all.” Huang Yiyun thought for a while and said to Huang Congjiang.
