I traveled through ancient times to escape famine with my arch-rival, the movie star.
Chapter 9 Dude, what's the weather forecast?
It turned out that Shen Youtian received a pig today, and thinking that the Xu family had been collecting meat, he went to the Xu family, only to find a group of people gathered there. It turned out that the Xu family had deceived a foreign merchant into buying the rented yard, and the entire Xu family disappeared.
Moreover, the Xu family owed a lot of money for vegetables and cloth the day before, and they agreed to settle it today. When Shen Youtian got there, several groups of people denounced the Xu family's actions, but they couldn't catch anyone, so they had to report to the police first.
"It's no use reporting to the police. The whole family ran away. This incident has nothing to do with ordinary people like us. I just watched a lively scene. As a result, before I came back, I glanced at the rice shop. Do you know what the inferior rice is sold for?"
Shen Ying recalled: "I bought it last time, it seemed to be 400 Wen?"
Shen Youtian shook his head: "That's the price you paid last time, my girl. When I looked at it, the second-rate rice was 550 coins per stone!"
"Are you crazy?" Several men in the Shen family couldn't help but slam the table, and the women looked at each other in bewilderment.
How could the price of food almost double in just a few days!
This scene only occurs during natural disasters and man-made calamities. How did they encounter it? Could it be that...
"Dad, Mom, I suspected that the Xu family might have heard some news and therefore were hoarding food, but there was no chaos around and the food prices only fluctuated a little bit compared to last year, so I didn't pay much attention to it.
As a result, these things happened again. It was hard not to think that there was a connection. Moreover, on my way back, a waiter from a restaurant I knew approached me and wanted to buy some food. The price he offered was about the same as that of a rice shop, and he didn't have to pound the rice.
These signs indicate that food prices are going to be in chaos, and when that happens, there will definitely be a lot of trouble. I hurried back to ask my parents and brothers, what do you think about this matter? "
Mr. Shen's dark and yellow old face was tightly wrinkled.
The rest of the family was whispering to each other, no one looked relaxed, Shen Ying also pretended to be scared and panicked, grabbing her mother's arm. "If the price of food continues to rise like crazy, will the government forcibly requisition our food? Mom, I'm scared."
Mother Shen patted Shen Ying's hand but couldn't say anything.
If things have become serious to a certain extent, comforting people will do harm instead.
After Shen Youtian finished speaking, he sat down and looked at his father.
Although Shen Youtian is the pillar of the family on the surface, the children in the family all look up to Old Man Shen and him.
After all, an old person in the family is like a treasure, and the survival experience accumulated by the elderly is richer than that of the young.
Mr. Shen did not make any hasty arrangements, he just said to wait a little longer.
However, he also suggested that Shen Youtian go to the town more often. "If the town can't control the price, we'll see when the time comes."
"Then, should this kind of thing be disclosed to other villagers?" This is not a village where the Shen family is the largest family, but the neighbors get along well. There are no life-and-death feuds, and occasional quarrels can be laughed off. Whether to disclose this to the villagers is a choice.
Old Master Shen knocked on the table and said, "We are not the only ones in the village who have been to the town. The changes in grain prices are not unknown to others, but the village chief must be aware of them. Let's wait and see."
The elderly are more patient. Once they have spoken, others will think it is okay to wait. Otherwise, if they make a hasty decision, what might happen?
Shen Ying listened from the side and felt that she was closer to the wisdom of ancient people's lives.
In an age without news and the Internet, each generation had its own experience in dealing with things.
The one who appeared in front of Shen Ying earlier than the village chief was Qi Yanchuan.
At that time, Shen Ying was pretending to pick wild vegetables. In fact, it was already July and August, and the weather was still extremely hot. The crops in the fields were short of water, so what wild vegetables were there?
I just took the opportunity to dry the organic green vegetables for a few minutes and then threw them into the basket, to steal some food and fill the house.
Otherwise, she would feel bad sitting at the dining table and watching everyone eating a few slices of pickles and coarse grain rice every day.
After all, everyone was nice to her.
Since she became Shen Ying, she gradually accepted this family as they got along.
Qi Yanchuan appeared at this time.
Shen Ying originally thought that Qi Yanchuan was beaten so badly that he would be half dead if not dead, but she didn't expect that he would be standing in front of her so soon.
Yes, Shen Ying was blocked by Qi Yanchuan.
Having been blocked by someone not long ago, Shen Ying's expression was very subtle.
"Shen Ying,"
"To make a long story short, to make a short story quick." Shen Ying was indifferent. She was not too moved by what Qi Yanchuan had suffered.
Qi Yanchuan sighed: "Thank you."
Shen Ying moved her fingers.
She knew why Qi Yanchuan wanted to thank her.
Because on the day Qi Yanchuan was beaten, she threw some medicine and a small bag of fine grains into the Qi family.
"I was in a coma for a few days. After I woke up, I learned from my brother and sister-in-law that someone had sent food in." The Yunnan Baiyao with a changed packaging could only have been given by Shen Ying.
"No, there won't be any more." Shen Ying sighed: "When I first crossed over, your first reaction was to cooperate with me. This time, sending the medicine is your reward. From now on, put down your pride and live a good life."
"If you want to thank me, I accept it. We don't want to have any more interactions in the future."
"I know you have something different."
Shen Ying's eyes were stern, and she smiled coldly: "Sure enough, I can't be a good person, especially to someone like you. Knowing that I have something different, then what do you want to do? What do you want? "
Qi Yanchuan saw Shen Ying was on guard against him, and smiled bitterly in his heart, but he still wanted to explain to Shen Ying: "Don't be so defensive against me, I also have special skills."
Shen Ying raised her eyebrows. Is Qi Yanchuan going to self-destruct?
"Also, I have two unique skills."
Shen Ying smiled.
Shen Ying was not defeated. "What is your purpose in saying this?"
"I want to make a deal with you, Shen Ying. You and I are the only people in this world who come from the same place. No matter what conflicts we have had before, I hope that at least in a fair deal, we will not have a confrontational mentality towards each other.
One of the skills I have is something similar to nutrient solution, which can restore the negative state of the body to the greatest extent. I have tried it, and one drop can relieve common ailments. Let’s not talk about whether the medical level in ancient times was reliable or not. That kind of long-term treatment is no match for the nutrient solution in my hand.”
Shen Ying understood: "You mean you want to trade this nutrient solution with me?"
"Yes, in addition to this, another skill of mine is to survey the surrounding weather. To show my sincerity, I can first tell you the recent weather conditions."
Qi Yanchuan was not a fool, so he suddenly revealed his two golden fingers and told everyone everything, but because he had to get Shen Ying's support.
Otherwise, not to mention whether he could bless the original body's family, even he himself might not be able to survive the disaster.
Qi Yanchuan said word by word: "For the next three months, there will be no rain within a hundred miles, and the radiation will continue to radiate to the towns farther away. After the scorching sun, there will be no grass growing on the land. Shen Ying, so, you and I must cooperate to find a way to survive."
Shen Ying was slightly stunned.
No, buddy, it’s your weather forecast.
