Escape after crossing

Thinking about what I dreamed about, losing my life for a stone, I really feel a little resentful!

But she couldn't go now. When she came back, she must go and see the stone. So she followed Jiang Runzhi and continued walking forward.

After walking for half an hour, Jiang Ziluo saw the city gate. The plaque on the gate read Luo City.

Looking at the city gate, there were quite a few people coming and going, and Jiang Ziluo felt a little relieved.

If there was no one, Jiang Ziluo would be anxious. After entering the city gate, Jiang Ziluo asked Jiang Runzhi.

"Dad, do you know where the largest restaurant in the county is?"

Yes, it was the restaurant. Jiang Ziluo thought that since no one in the county had left, the restaurant must still be open.

Then she wouldn't be afraid of having no money or food. But Jiang Runzhi looked at Jiang Ziluo and asked in confusion.

"Zi Luo, why are you asking about the biggest restaurant? They won't hire workers there. Even if they do, they'll only look for young people. I guess they wouldn't be interested in me."

"Ah? Dad, I don't want you to go there to find a job. Tell me where it is first?"

"Oh, it's on that street. The restaurant is big and grand. I heard there's another one in the city."

"Oh, it seems their business is very good!"

"Well, I heard the food in that restaurant is very expensive. What are we going there for?"

The two of them walked and talked. When they were almost in front of the restaurant, Jiang Ziluo stopped. It was still early and no one would go to the restaurant to eat so early in the morning.

Moreover, she didn't know much about the current prices. Now that she knew where the restaurant was, she wanted to walk around the street and take a look.

Jiang Runzhi saw that Jiang Ziluo was just standing far away from the restaurant and looking at it, maybe he wanted to go inside to eat?

But he couldn't afford it! He had to find a job and save money in the future. Not to mention eating a meal here, even if he just bought one dish for the children to taste, that would be good.

He pulled Jiang Ziluo and said, "Ziluo, Dad is going to look for a job. You come with Dad. When you find a job, you wait nearby for Dad to get off work."

"Dad, where are you going to find a job?"

"Go see if the food store needs people to carry heavy bags, or see if there are any rich people who need odd jobs."

"Dad, can't you weave bamboo baskets? Why don't you weave them and sell them?"

"Any farmer knows how to do that, how can we sell it?"

"Then make some shapes or patterns that others can't make!"

"But, Dad, I don't know how to do that. They are just backpacks or vegetable baskets that farmers usually use. What other flower shapes can they have?"

"Yes, we'll talk about that later. Let's go to the grain store first."

Jiang Runzhi thought he was talking about seeing if there was any work to do? Jiang Ziluo's "see" was not what Jiang Runzhi meant.

Jiang Ziluo wanted to see to what extent the price of food had risen?

She was from the later generations and knew that as long as there was flood or drought, the price of these grains would be sky-high, and these poor people could not afford to eat them.

Jiang Runzhi and his daughter came to the grain store, and Jiang Ziluo saw the plaque that read Ruyi Grain Store.

When the two of them went in, Jiang Runzhi went straight to the shopkeeper to talk, while Jiang Ziluo went to check the rice box and the flour box.

Jiang Ziluo saw a wooden sign on it, which read 45 copper coins per liter.

Jiang Ziluo didn't know what he could buy with one copper coin, but forty copper coins for one liter of rice was really not cheap.

Later generations learned that in ancient times, the volume units of grain were shi, dou, sheng, and he, in order, and there was a decimal relationship between them, with shi being the largest and he being the smallest.

Dou is the second largest unit of capacity. In unit conversion, ten dou is equal to one shi.

Liter is the third largest unit of capacity. In unit conversion, ten liters are equal to one dou, and one hundred liters are equal to one shi.

Jiang Ziluo still remembers that one liter is 1.25 kilograms, so the price of grain is expensive.

Jiang Ziluo looked at the price and went to Jiang Runzhi. Jiang Runzhi was still telling the shopkeeper that he wanted to work in the store.

The shopkeeper saw that he was tall and strong, so he asked, "I will transport a batch of grain today. Although the grain is not cheap, it is brought back from far away.

The cost is also very high. And you have to be careful about being robbed on the road, and you look very honest.

Today I'll give you one liter of rice after you finish this job. How about that?"

"Really? Okay, I'll do it. I don't know where the food is, so where should I move it to?" Jiang Runzhi was very happy when he heard that he could be given food.

"Wait a minute, shopkeeper, this is my father. Can you tell me the exact amount of grain?"

The grain store owner looked at Jiang Ziluo, a small, not-so-good-looking girl, and the questions he asked were indeed very crucial.

Jiang Runzhi saw the shopkeeper looking at Jiang Ziluo and was afraid that he would anger the shopkeeper and not let him do this job. What should he do?

"Boss, the child is young and doesn't understand, don't worry about it! There's no need to..." Jiang Ziluo spoke before Jiang Runzhi finished his words.
