The game starts with fleeing from famine, the boss of the end times is in trouble

"Hello, shopkeeper. I was recommended by the shopkeeper of the grocery store on the street ahead to buy cotton from you." Yun the butcher saw that the shopkeeper was no longer busy, so he went up to the shopkeeper and said.

"Hello, fellow. Thank you for keeping me waiting for so long. Please come here and sit down for a while." The shopkeeper said as he led Yun the butcher to rest.

"No need, shopkeeper. I'm here to buy things on behalf of the villagers. I can't stay too long. When I was buying things at the grocery store before, their shopkeeper said that your prices are fair and the people are nice. So, we came here." Yun the butcher said politely.

"You are talking about Wang's Grocery Store, right? The shopkeeper is a friend of my family. We often interact with each other. We are very familiar with each other. His shopkeeper is also a very kind and enthusiastic person. Usually, if a customer needs something, we will recommend the customer to buy things from him. His customers will sometimes recommend them to us. Business belongs to everyone, and we all make money together. Of course, I know the other person's character, and if he has a bad character, I will definitely not recommend him. You can rest assured about this." said the shopkeeper.

"Yes, shopkeeper, we also think that the shopkeeper of Wang's Grocery Store has good character. He is your friend, so you must be someone you can trust."

"Haha, fellow countryman, you are right." The shopkeeper said happily.

"Shopkeeper, the weather is getting colder and colder, so we want to buy more cotton. How much is one pound of cotton now?

"Cotton is now 350 wen per pound. Due to the drought in the past two years, we can't grow cotton locally. The cotton in our store was shipped from the south in the early days of the drought. It was difficult to transport it on the road, so the freight is half more expensive than usual." The shopkeeper said, pointing at the cotton.

When Yun the butcher heard the price, he was happy. I was really lucky today. I met reliable people. This price is just right. It is 60 cents cheaper per pound than the price in the town last time. And the supply is sufficient. It is a big place, the prices are really not high.

"Boss, I'm buying for the villagers. We did some calculations before we came here, and we need a total of 500 kilograms of cotton. Do you think the price can be more favorable? We came to the city mainly to buy food. We didn't originally plan to buy cotton. However, it's getting colder and colder, and without warmth on the road to escape famine, we might freeze to death. So, we squeezed out money from the money we used to buy food to buy cotton." Yun the butcher said helplessly.

When I was in Yunjia Village, every family had a kang. As long as people were not lazy and prepared a lot of firewood in advance in the fall and early winter, they could spend the winter safely even if they didn't have enough cotton-padded clothes and quilts. However, now that we are fleeing from famine, we are not safe at all. We have to prepare cotton-padded clothes to wear during the day and quilts to sleep on at night, even if we light a fire at night.

Those who have money can prepare more, and those who don't can put less cotton, which can also achieve the effect of keeping warm. I don't know when I will go to the city later, so I must take this opportunity to prepare cotton in advance.

"Yes, it is true. Cotton is indispensable for keeping warm in winter. Let me tell you, I'll charge you three hundred and twenty coins per pound of cotton. It's also a little support from me." The shopkeeper said readily.

"Thank you so much, shopkeeper. In addition, I also want 30 meters of old coarse cloth, the cheapest kind will do. This way I can make quilts at home, which are also wear-resistant and dirt-resistant." Yun the butcher said happily.

"Okay, I have a type of old coarse cloth in stock for a long time, but the color is not good-looking, it is that kind of gray-black, not a bright color. But the quality is very good, wear-resistant and dirt-resistant, and not easy to break. As for the price, I will clear the stock and give you 20 cents per meter, what do you think?" asked the shopkeeper.

"Boss, we don't care about the pattern, as long as the quality is good and the price is low. You have helped us a lot this time. You are a kind person. On behalf of the people in Yunjia Village, thank you for your care." Yun the butcher said gratefully.

"You're welcome. We were all introduced by friends. And you found this place because you trust me. I'm just trying my best to help you. You're very polite." The shopkeeper waved his hands and said.

After a while, the shopkeeper finished the account and Yun the Butcher paid. After waiting for a while, the young man packed 50 kilograms of cotton into a bag, wrapped it with waterproof oilcloth, and wrapped the old coarse cloth with waterproof oilcloth, and helped to pile it on the donkey cart. This time, the donkey cart was full, and there was only a little space in the top carriage. So Yun the Butcher and Yun Yiyi had to follow the donkey cart.

Yun the butcher and his friends said goodbye to the shopkeeper. They planned to walk around the East District to see if there was anything else they could buy. As they walked, Yun Yiyi pulled Yun the butcher's arm.

"What's wrong, Yiyi?"

"Dad, look, there's a butcher shop over there." Yun Yiyi pointed to a shop on the roadside and said. There was a table outside the shop, and behind the table was a shelf with a lot of pork hanging on it. There was also a lot of pork on the table. On the chair behind the table sat a man with a face full of fat, taking a nap.

"Oh, Yiyi, you little greedy cat, your eyes are so sharp. Dad didn't even notice it." Yun the butcher made fun of Yun Yiyi.

"Dad, Mom told you to buy some fat meat and go back to refine oil." Yun Yiyi was not afraid of being laughed at by Yun the Butcher.

"Let's drive the donkey cart over there and buy some meat." Yun the butcher said as he drove the donkey cart towards the butcher's shop.

When she got there, Yun Yiyi discovered that there was a lot of meat on the butcher's shop. It seemed that there was no shortage of meat in the city. There should be a shop that specializes in supplying pork.

"Boss, wake up. I want to buy some pork." Yun the butcher shouted loudly.

The man who was dozing off woke up with a start. He glanced at Yun the Butcher and Yun Yiyi.

"What kind of meat do you want? How much do you want? I'll cut it for you." Although the man looked fierce, he had a good temper. He didn't lose his temper when he was woken up. He still spoke in a gentle voice.

"How much does fat meat cost now, shopkeeper? To be honest, when I was in my hometown, I was also a butcher and opened a meat stall in the town. Later, the drought became more and more severe, so I closed the meat stall. So when I see you and this meat stall, I feel particularly close to it." Yun the butcher said happily to the shopkeeper.

"Looking at your physique, you seem to be very strong. I didn't expect that you are also a butcher. It's really a fate." The owner of the meat stall said happily.

"Yes, you can't be a butcher without strength. I have been strong since I was a child, and then I learned this from others. When I was old enough to become an apprentice, my master let me open my own stall." said Yun the butcher.
