Surviving the famine: I made my fortune by helping others

Chapter 29: Beating up the grain shop clerk

[Ding——, the series of tasks of helping villagers obtain documents for migration and settlement has been completed, reward of 80 jin of flour, 80 task points, and 20 additional reward points for the series of tasks, please check.]

Ye Chuyi had never thought that the mechanical sound of the system was so pleasant.

I worked so hard to save a group of girls and children but only got thirty points, but now I can easily get a hundred points.

It turns out that making money still requires skills.

Unlike her joy, at this moment Baizi was curled up in the corner, crying and making circles.

Not only did it not receive any energy value reward, but it also had its rewards for ten tasks deducted.

"Tell everyone to hurry up and pack up, and gather at the East City Gate at 5pm."

Ye Chuyi said, handing back the silver that Miao Ying had brought earlier, "Take this, and take the girls and children to buy some things. You may not have such an opportunity again after leaving the city. Also, prepare Miss Lin's medicine."

"Don't worry, miss. Everything is ready. I bought it a long time ago and started cooking."

Ever since the identity badge issue was finalized, Miao Ying and the others consciously changed their way of addressing her. To avoid getting into trouble by calling her "County Magistrate" in public, they simply called her "Miss."

"Yeah, you are a person with ideas, just take care of what you need to prepare."

Although they didn't have much contact, Ye Chuyi had a good impression of this generous and magnanimous girl. With someone helping her with these trivial matters, she could have some free time.

"Little old man, I'll leave first!"

Ye Chuyi approached Zhang Zhonglin with a smile and said, "Don't be so unhappy. I'm not forcing you to leave. If you don't want to leave, just stay."

The old man took a deep breath, tugged at her sleeve anxiously, and said in a low voice, "Girl, can you lend me some money? I want to buy some medicinal herbs."

After saying this, his face quickly turned red, he was really short of money.

Ye Chuyi was stunned for a moment, but then he reacted and burst into laughter, "Why are you like that little girl who was forced?"

The old man turned around angrily and ignored her. It was so embarrassing. If other people knew about this, he would probably lose all his reputation in this life.

"Are these enough? If not, I have more here." Ye Chuyi quickly pulled out a few hundred-liang silver notes from the space bracelet.

If the old man hadn't reminded her, she would not have remembered to buy medicine.

"You don't need these. I'll return them to you when I have some left. This money is just a loan from me."

The old man put away the banknotes with a serious face, picked up the small package he took out of the clinic and quickly walked out the door.

Ye Chuyi picked up the little girl, said something to everyone, and quickly went out.

She had come to the city originally to buy food. Now the food had been eaten and there were so many new people. Although she didn't know whether they would follow her, it was better to be prepared.

"Aunt, don't you want to go with Brother Huzi?" Yaya lay obediently on Ye Chuyi's shoulder. Although she was reluctant to leave those little friends, she said nothing.

"Aunt is taking Yaya to buy some delicious food. Yaya, do you want to eat?"

Ye Chuyi teased her happily. When she was in modern times, she especially liked well-behaved and cute children, but she never had the chance. Now that she met such a well-behaved one, she was so happy.

Unfortunately, since they met, the aunt and niece have not had a chance to have a good chat.

The two talked and laughed all the way, and soon arrived at the door of the grain store.

Familiar shop, familiar guys.

"Miss, are you looking for food? Please come in. We have everything in our shop. I guarantee you will be satisfied."

Dongzi bent over with a smile on his face, his voice as flattering as it could be.

"It's only been one morning since we last met, how come Xiao Er brother has become so polite? Where is your previous domineering attitude?"

She still remembered the grudge she had incurred in the morning. She had no choice but to suffer the humiliation at that time, and this time she had to get revenge.

Dongzi suddenly raised his head and stared at Ye Chuyi for a long time before he remembered who it was, "How dare you come here!"

He was lectured by the shopkeeper in the morning and had his salary for half a month deducted. He will never forget this grudge.

"If you can continue to work here, I really don't dare to come here."

Ye Chuyi walked into the grain shop calmly, with much more momentum than in the morning.

If you have money in your pocket, you won’t be worried.

"The price of food in our shop has gone up again. I'm afraid you can't afford it with your few ounces of silver."

Dongzi looked at the new clothes she had obviously just changed into, and his face turned dark enough to drip water.

These things should have belonged to her.

"Whether or not I can afford it is not up to you to decide. Call your shopkeeper out."

Ye Chu put Yaya down, took her hand and walked to the counter to look around.

The furnishings in the grain shop had changed a bit compared to this morning. There was a lot less grain piled up, and the sign that had originally been standing at the door was gone.

"The boss doesn't have time to deal with you." Dongzi stood there motionless, thinking about how to subdue this woman in one go.

The shopkeeper didn't want him to take action because he was afraid that this little bitch was really a lady from some family, but now he has a reason to convince the shopkeeper.

The little girl that this little bitch brought with her looked poor and did not look like a daughter of a rich family. When the time came, as long as he said that they used fake ID cards to deceive people, he would be credited even if he was reported to the government.

As Dongzi thought about it, a malicious smile appeared on his face.

Yaya was so scared that she hid behind her aunt.

Ye Chuyi gave him a cold look, then picked up the scale on the counter and hit him.

The strength-enhancing effect of the force pill was still there, and she did not hold back on purpose. These blows were fast and fierce, and Dongzi didn't have time to react and fell directly to the ground.

"How dare you hit me, you shameless little whore!"

Dongzi rushed over with his fangs bared and a ferocious expression on his face.

Ye Chuyi kicked the man away, then pushed Yaya behind the counter and whispered to her, "Be good and stay here. Don't move. Auntie will go beat up the bad guys."

Yaya covered her ears with her hands and nodded obediently, "Don't be afraid, Yaya, come on, auntie, beat the bad guy away!"

Ye Chuyi raised the corner of his mouth and rubbed her little head, then turned around with a face as cold as ice. Before Dongzi could get up, he kicked her again, and waved the scale bar in his hand.

Although she had never studied martial arts seriously, as a single woman in the new era, she had learned a lot of self-defense skills in order to strengthen herself and not give villains any chance to take advantage of her.

At the beginning, Dongzi could still swing a few times relying on his masculine size and strength. But when Ye Chuyi slowly regained the feeling he had when he was learning martial arts, he beat him until he cried for his parents.

She did not hold back, and every blow of the scale bar landed firmly on Dongzi's body, making a dull sound and accompanied by the man's painful groans.

"Auntie is so great!"

Yaya poked her little head out quietly and encouraged her aunt in a baby voice.

Several people stood outside, pointing and talking, but no one dared to come in.

"Do you still dare to look down on others, huh?"
