After all the herbs were loaded onto the carriage, Uncle Wu took out a list and handed it to Mr. Li.

"Mr. Li, these are the food and other items my family wants to buy. Please help take a look." Uncle Wu said.

Li Xiucai read out the items on the list to everyone. The village chief, the three elders, hunter Zhang, butcher Yun, and Zhang all went to help prepare. Everyone prepared the items one by one and put them aside. Li Xiucai checked with Uncle Wu again and everyone helped put the items on the carriage.

Li Xiucai reported the money Uncle Wu paid before entering the city to Uncle Wu and confirmed that it was correct. He also reported a figure for the difference Uncle Wu needed to pay. Among them, the difference for the medicinal materials was paid by the village chief. After Uncle Wu paid the difference, he drove the carriage away and returned to his campsite.

As soon as Uncle Wu left, the villagers who were waiting nearby came over to tell Li Xiucai the number. Everyone had already cooperated once before, and this time the speed was even faster. Just like before, everyone prepared everything and put it aside. Li Xiucai checked the quantity and price with the villagers, and after confirming that they were correct, everyone helped to load the truck. After loading the truck, Li Xiucai was responsible for collecting the difference.

Everyone was busy like this, and soon most of the villagers had their belongings sorted and loaded onto the trucks.

"Village chief, you guys can choose from the remaining items first. When you've finished choosing, I'll take them all. What do you think?" asked Yun the butcher.

"I think it's okay, Brother Yun. We will divide the remaining food on the ground equally among our families, and for the rest, you can take whatever you want." Li Xiucai said.

"Okay, let's do as you say. It's almost midnight now, let's hurry up and divide it, then gather the villagers and set off." The village chief said in a low voice.

"Yes, everyone, please make way for each other and hurry up. At this moment, I hear that the noise in the square has become much quieter. Especially the noise made by those refugees who were thrown to the edge of the square by you, I can hardly hear them from here now. So, now is a good time to leave." The elder of the clan said in a low voice.

After hearing the words of the elder, everyone moved faster. After everyone present had bought everything and loaded it onto the car, everyone found that there was only the village's reserve grain and three pig feet that Yun the butcher had left on the ground. Everything else was divided up by everyone.

"Let's put the grain stored in the village onto the cars of my family and the three clan elders. We have a lot of cars, so even if we load them with spare grain, it will be enough." The village chief said as he arranged for everyone to put the spare grain onto the cars.

"Okay, give everyone ten minutes to go back and pack your things, and we'll be ready to leave," said the village chief.

After hearing what the village chief said, everyone hurriedly drove their cars out. Soon, the only ones left standing were Yun the Butcher and Zhang. The two looked at each other and finally finished their work. Now they could wake up the children, pack up and get ready to leave.

Zhang first woke up the three Yun brothers and Yun Yiyi, and asked them to put on their clothes and stay awake. She and Yun the butcher packed all the sleeping utensils and put them on the donkey cart. Yun the butcher covered the donkey cart with oilcloth and handed the rope to Zhang, and the two of them tied the oilcloth.

Then, two people put the cooking pots, bowls and other kitchen utensils into the basket, and then put the basket on the cart. Finally, according to the old rules, cover it with tarpaulin and tie the tarpaulin with ropes. Although it has not rained. But protective measures must be taken all the time. Otherwise, it will really rain. Everything will be soaked before the tarpaulin is covered. The most important point is to cover the things on the car with tarpaulin so that no one will know what is loaded on the car. This is more low-key and can also reduce the attention of other refugees on the villagers of Yunjia Village.

After Yun the Butcher and Zhang had put all the things in the car, the children nearby also woke up.

"Dad, let me push a cart for a while. You've been busy all night. You can go to the donkey cart and take a nap." Brother Yun said.

"Yes, Dad, you must be very tired now. You should get some sleep first." Second Brother Yun also said.

"No need, kids. It's the middle of the night now, and it's hard to see the road clearly. Besides, the village chief also said that we can't light torches when we leave. It will be even more difficult to see the road while pushing the cart. So, I will push one cart. Your mother will push another cart, and you, the eldest, will help hold the cart beside your mother. The second and third will still drive the donkey cart. If Yiyi feels sleepy, she can go and sleep on the cart." said Yun the butcher.

"Okay then, Dad, tell me when you feel tired. I'll go push the cart." said Boss Yun.

"Dad, I just fell asleep and I'm not sleepy now. Let me walk beside you." Yun Yiyi said while hugging Yun the Butcher's arm.

"Okay, Yiyi. Then you must watch the road and don't fall." Zhang reminded from the side.

"I understand, Mom. Don't worry, I will watch the road." Yun Yiyi guaranteed while holding her chubby fist.

Yun the butcher, Zhang, and the three brothers of the Yun family all laughed after hearing what Yun Yiyi said.

"Yiyi, here's your stick." Brother Yun said as he handed Yun Yiyi's stick to her.

"Dad, Mom, I'm afraid it won't be smooth when we leave soon. I'll carry this stick myself and put it under the donkey cart tomorrow." Yun Yiyi first looked at Yun the Butcher, then turned to look at Zhang.

"Wife, let Yiyi hold the stick. Our family is at the end of the line. If refugees really catch up with us, we will be the first to face them. We can't be without weapons at this time." Yun the butcher received Yun Yiyi's signal for help, and he turned around to discuss with Zhang. I have to say that Yun the butcher's level of coaxing his wife is definitely very high.

"Okay then, I'll listen to you and let Yiyi hold the stick. But let's make it clear first, Yiyi, you can't just keep rushing up, okay?" Zhang said while holding Yun Yiyi's fat ears.

"Mom, mom, please let go. I remember, I promise I won't rush up." Yun Yiyi said in a low voice.

"You have to promise me, Yiyi. If you don't listen, I will spank you again tomorrow." Zhang let go of Yun Yiyi's ear and said.

"Mom, don't worry, I keep my word." Yun Yiyi said with clenched fists.

"Boss, second brother, third brother, all of you keep your sticks at hand. If there are refugees following us, don't be afraid, just beat them with the sticks. Wife, put your stick on the car as well." Yun the butcher looked at everyone and said seriously.

After hearing what Yun the Butcher said, everyone nodded.

At this time, the village chief came over and told everyone to line up on the road and set off now. The team was the same as the original team. The difference was that there were more than 20 young men from Yunjia Village holding sticks at the end of the team.
