Fast-forward to the era of cannon fodder

"Don't worry about it. Anyway, I won't let you go hungry." Yuanchun picked up the bowl and drank the corn paste in the bowl in one gulp. Then she took out a handful of candied fruits, picked up two and threw them into her mouth, and put the rest on the table. "These are the fruits I picked on the mountain. They are all dried, but they are still sweet in your mouth. Eat some after you finish drinking the corn paste.

In the evening, Yuanchun came back early and went to the fields to record work points for the villagers.

In the evening, after recording the work points, Yuanchun went up the mountain again with the basket on her back.

When she came back, her basket was filled with half a basket of mushrooms and thirty pheasant eggs. In the evening, she cooked a pot of egg soup for the children, fried a mushroom, and cooked a pot of rice.

After dinner, Yuanchun said to Daqiang, "Mom, go get some food. Bring me some hot water so that you and your brothers and sisters can wash their feet before going to bed."

"Mom, it's dark outside. Let me go with you." Daqiang was worried about his mother going out alone and felt uneasy.

Yuanchun touched his head and said, "Don't worry, mother. I'll be fine."

"Mom, why don't you go and exchange for food? My brother and sister and I can have a few meals of corn paste."

"No, Mom will make you eat dry rice. Okay, Mom is going out now."

Yuanchun went out with the basket on her back.

Yuanchun would naturally not exchange food in the small county town. After she left the village, she entered the space, got on the aircraft, slapped an invisibility talisman on the aircraft, and then left the space and flew towards the capital.

Beijing is bustling and lively at night, with vendors setting up stalls on both sides of the street, selling all kinds of food, clothing, daily necessities...

Yuanchun pulled a cart and first went to a big restaurant, where she sold two wild boars weighing nearly a thousand pounds that were on the cart.

When she came out, she had an extra three hundred and eighty yuan in her hand.

Yuanchun pulled the cart and walked along the street of the department store from the beginning to the end. There were two more pieces of navy blue cloth, four more cotton quilts, a bag of fifty kilograms of rice, and a bag of thirty kilograms of millet on the cart.

Rice and millet were taken out from the space. The small vendors sold everything except food. Yuanchun looked around and found that they were all selling food, such as buns, fried dough sticks, and pies, but no food.

Maybe the country is open, but some things are still not allowed to be sold, such as food.

At eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, Yuanchun returned home and brought back a cart full of supplies.

Daqiang, who had been worried about his mother and hadn't dared to sleep, heard the noise and quickly put on his clothes and came out to check, "Mom, you're back."

"Well, let's move all the things into the house, and be quiet so as not to wake up the neighbors." After all, private transactions were not allowed in the small county town, and if someone saw this truckload of things, it would be troublesome.

Daqiang quietly helped his mother move all the supplies into her room. When he saw the pile of good things, his eyes widened. "Mom, why did you buy so many things? You must have spent a lot of money, right?"

"Well, these things cost more than a hundred yuan. Although it hurts to spend money, we have to live and these things are necessities. Fortunately, there is still a lot of compensation from your father. I plan to buy a store and open a shop in the county when the business can be done. At that time, our whole family will go to the county."

"Mom, if we go to the county town, no one will earn work points, so what will we eat? We don't have food coupons to buy food. I heard that if you go to the black market to buy food, you will be arrested."

"Don't worry about that. Maybe soon, you won't need food stamps to buy food anymore."

Yuanchun said as she took out three bags of food and placed them next to the chest of drawers. "This food is enough for us to eat for a month. Don't be stingy when you cook. When you finish eating, I will go buy more."
