Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger

But I have promised my two younger brothers, and I can't go back on my word.

"Wake up, Guozi." I patted Guozi's little face, but the child seemed not to hear me and didn't react at all.

"Get up, Xiaoduo." He still gently patted Xiaoduo's face with his hand.

"Who is it? Don't disturb my sleep. Be careful... I'll ask my elder sister to beat you." The voice was vague, and many people were whispering.

Ugh.

Without further ado, he picked up one in each hand and walked out of the house.

Xu Zhi was stunned and quickly took out a thin quilt from the house and covered the two brothers with it.

Xu Yuan put the two little kids on each side of the stroller. The stroller was big enough and the two little kids, despite their thin bodies, could still fit both of them in.

In order to prevent them from falling out of the stroller, a partition was specially built in front of the stroller. Looking at the two little kids sleeping soundly, I couldn't help but laugh.

I slept so soundly, luckily there are no bad people here, otherwise I would not even know if I was kidnapped by some bad person, I have a really big heart.

"Sister, aren't you going to wake them up?" Xu Zhi felt that it was still a bit unsafe to sleep in the stroller like this and wanted to wake them up.

"No need, I'll just walk slowly and let them sleep well."

Dahua was eating grass with her head down. Seeing that Dahua had almost finished eating, Xuyuan quickly got on the front seat of the cart and drove Dahua towards the county town.

Xu Zhi watched his elder sister leave the yard, then closed the gate, put the perilla leaves that Pan Dahai had just handed over on the rack to dry, and went into the house to catch up on his sleep.

The ox cart drove slowly, the morning sun was warm and gentle, the breeze was blowing, and the morning dew on the mountain gradually evaporated with the appearance of the sun.

Birds were singing and insects were chirping in the forest. Sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves and onto Guozi's face, making it feel warm. Guozi felt like he was lying in a shaky place between a half-asleep and a half-awake state. He opened his eyes slightly and saw branches covered with leaves.

This is?

Guozi turned his head and looked around. There were backpacks everywhere and a small figure lying next to them, still sleeping soundly.

Guozi sat up slightly, looked around, and saw her elder sister driving the car in front. "Eldest sister, where are we?"

Xu Yuan looked at the road carefully without looking back. "We are almost out of this forest. We will reach the main road after walking a little further. Guozi, if you are hungry, there are some sweet-scented osmanthus cakes in the backpack. Take them out and fill your stomach."

"Oh, sister, have you eaten? Do you want to have a bite?" Guozi quickly found the backpack and took out a bag of osmanthus cake wrapped in oil paper.

"You eat, is Xiaoduo still sleeping?" Xu Yuan was not very interested in sweet things. Fortunately, after getting up, he added a little water to the leftover rice from last night and cooked a pot of porridge. Before he got busy, he called Xu Zhi to eat together. He was not very hungry at this time.

The ox cart traveled along the winding mountain path, and soon passed through the forest and finally came to the main road. Many people woke up at this time.

When I woke up and looked around, my eyes, which were a little blurry at first, suddenly widened.

He looked at Xuyuan who was driving the car in front, with an excited look on his face.

"Brother, are we going to the county town?"

"Sister really kept her promise. I thought she wouldn't take us to the county town because I got up too late."

Many people in the carts were pulling at the sleeves of the fruit sellers with excitement on their faces.

"Okay, Xiaoduo, take it easy. You are sitting in the car, be careful."

Xu Yuan heard many excited voices coming from behind and told Xiaoduo to take care of himself.

Lin'an City Gate

The city gate was wide open, and many villagers pushing carts were queuing up to enter the city. There was a team of five or six people among them, and the large and small packages on the carts were very eye-catching.

"Well, tell me, that group of people dragged so many things in, what were they carrying?"

"Who knows, it can't be food, it seems that the refugees who came into the city recently don't seem to have so much."

The officers and soldiers standing at the city gate checked the items brought in by the villagers one by one, and finally it was the turn of the caravan with a very conspicuous number of people.

"What is this?" The leading officer stopped the middle-aged man who was leading the caravan and asked seriously.

"Sir, we came from Chunyang City. These are ground beans and soybeans grown by the common people. We transported them here to sell." As he spoke, the leading man untied the sacks to reveal the crops inside.

After the officers and soldiers confirmed that everything was correct, they let the person in.

"Dad, do you think we can sell all these things this time?" The young boy followed the big man closely. He was very excited looking at Lin'an City, which was more lively and richer than Chunyang City.

"That's fine, let's go check out the shops in this city."

"Brother, should we split up into two groups? I'll take A-Zhun to set up a stall at that location."

"You, Third Brother, and Xiaodong go to the grain store to see if you can sell them. Come find us later."

The leading big man nodded, agreeing with his second brother's idea.

So the three brothers took action on their own.

When Xuyuan arrived at the city gate, he had a smooth journey. The leading officers and soldiers also knew Xuyuan at once. After all, Xuyuan would come into the city every few days and would give them some bundled sprouts.

Thanks to their wishes, the officers and soldiers were able to eat the best dishes sold in Fumanlou recently. The other officers and soldiers who were not on duty at the city gate were extremely envious.

"Uncle Zhang, are you on duty today too?"

When Xu Yuan saw the familiar officers and soldiers, he greeted them and handed over the bundled sprouts.

The soldier named Uncle Zhang was a middle-aged man of medium height, with a righteous and kind face. He did not bother to be polite with Xu Yuan, and took the sprouts handed over by Xu Yuan very naturally.

Seeing that there were two children in the cart, Brother Liu recognized who they were and greeted Guozi and Xuanyu enthusiastically.

"It's just a coincidence. It happens to be my turn today. How come you're here so late today?"

"I was delayed by something at home, so I'm a little late. Uncle Zhang, let's leave it at that for now. I'll go deliver the goods first."

"Boy, we have something rare today. It came from Chunyang City. It's a truckload of ground beans and soybeans. We don't have those ground beans here. You can go and have a look. The group should be back at the grain store. If you're interested, you can go and have a look when you're free."

Ground beans?

"Thank you, Uncle Zhang. I'll go check it out later."

The ox cart moved slowly towards the back door of Fumanlou.

At this time, at the back door of Fumanlou, Shopkeeper Hu was looking forward to the arrival of the God of Wealth. Why hasn't the God of Wealth arrived yet?

"Boss, I'm coming."

A guy ran in from outside and said excitedly.

This was because Manager Hu could not wait any longer, so he sent a waiter to wait at the intersection, and if he saw Xu Yuan coming, he would come back and report immediately.

"It's good to come, it's good to come."
