As they were about to reach the county town, Han Mingxiang asked Li Lanzhen in the car, "Mom, are we still going to the county town?"

"You are stupid. Now go tell others that we have silver in our house. Come and rob it. Go quickly."

After passing the county town, Li Lanzhen asked Han Mingxiang to stop and rest for a while, and asked him to slow down and not rush the mule.

After getting off the car, Han Mingxiang wanted to go to the bathroom, so Li Lanzhen fed soybeans to the big blue mule. She herself was very thirsty, so she remembered that food alone was not enough, and water, salt and sugar were also needed.

Tsk tsk, how could I forget such an important thing.

She quickly entered the mall to browse, arguing with the system as she browsed.

"You are a system master. You must be an intern in the system bureau. Look, what kind of broken system is this? It's so passive. Can't we hosts choose what we want?"

"Serious warning. Serious warning. The host cannot curse the system. Otherwise, the system will be reclaimed."

"Hey, don't give me that. You have deployed countless systems in all directions, set up various rules, and then searched for us travelers to conduct experiments.

See what kind of system content is used in what kind of small world, which will be more beneficial to your system bureau and the interstellar system mall.

Haha, you should report to your superiors immediately and tell them that this batch of hosts is very difficult to lead. They are rebellious and let them give you this broken one instead of upgrading your system.

Open up free trade, you can exchange whatever you want. "

"It cannot be exchanged for silver!"

"Okay, we can't exchange for silver, but we can make it like a real mall, with the goods arranged in categories so that the host can exchange them freely. I strongly request this."

After a while without hearing any system sounds, Li Lanzhen called out to him, "Don't play dead. Go report it quickly."

Time passed quickly while the two of them were bickering, and Li Lanzhen found water of various specifications. Then she saw the strange requirement of this shop to exchange water for stones.

Looking around, there were indeed some stones, but they were just ordinary stones. With the attitude of giving it a try, Li Lanzhen saw Han Mingxiang coming and walked behind the rocks nearby.

Looking at Han Mingxiang who was walking back, he said, "Xiang'er, take care of the mule cart. I'll be back soon."

She found three stones with beautiful colors and unique shapes and threw them in. After thinking for a while, she held a large stone with a green base that was more than one person tall and had several white and red irregular patterns on it and threw it in. Unexpectedly, the stone disappeared immediately after being thrown in. Could this guy be a monster that swallows stones?

Never mind. Li Lanzhen felt a sense of accomplishment after exchanging two large wooden barrels of spring water weighing ten kilograms each, and five small wooden barrels of water weighing two kilograms each.

When I returned to the mule cart, I poured half a bowl of water for the big blue mule. The mule drank it all in one gulp, then tilted its neck and howled.

Seeing the big blue mule drinking water happily, Han Mingxiang felt thirsty and wanted to drink a bowl of water. "Xiang'er, come, drink a bowl of water to quench your thirst. We will go home quickly."

Han Mingxiang looked at the bowl of clear water, thoughtfully, "Do you want to drink it? If not, get out of here!" Li Lanzhen's impatient concealment made him subconsciously hold the bowl of water with both hands and drink it all in one breath.

After getting on the mule cart, Li Lanzhen said to Han Mingxiang, who was sitting on the shaft, "Xiang'er, concentrate on driving the cart. I'll take a nap. Don't turn your head to look at me. Look at the road ahead."

Han Mingxiang sat obediently in the front and concentrated on driving the car, while Li Lanzhen started to make trouble in the back.

She first gave herself an anti-inflammatory medicine, and then applied a handful of anti-inflammatory powder to the wound on her forehead.

Then, he took out two large wooden barrels that could hold ten kilograms of water, and took out the white flour, rice, corn flour, soybeans, black beans, rye bran, and eggs that he had exchanged earlier, and put everything that could be put into the new backpack given by Jin Fulai.

The big knife, wrapped in cloth, was also taken out and placed in the carriage.

She just exchanged one pound of spring water for two pounds of salt. She didn't know how this exchange merchant could have so much salt. The grains were fine and white, unlike the large grains of salt here which were yellow. It seemed that there was a serious shortage of water here. She remembered this and would come back to exchange salt next time.

I didn’t exchange it for brown sugar, because brown sugar needs to be exchanged for gold. I don’t want anything else. Forget it. I still want gold.

Da da da! The big blue mule ate soybeans and drank spring water, and it became full of energy. It ran very fast and at a steady and even speed.

Han Mingxiang kept praising the big blue mule. Li Lanzhen also felt like she had found a treasure. She became more confident about taking her family with her to escape the famine.

Arriving at the entrance of the village, Li Lanzhen saw the huge stone mill under a big tree. She suddenly had an idea. She had been looking for supplies to exchange in the mall, but she did not actively put things in the mall to exchange for the supplies she needed. So she put the huge stone mill into the mall and hung it up. What should she exchange it for?

It's nothing more than food, clothing, housing and transportation. If you want to escape famine, these are necessary, so exchange them for homespun cloth, cotton, cotton-padded clothes, quilts, thousand-layer sole shoes, cotton shoes, as well as oilcloth, brown sugar and dried ginger slices. Exchange these first and see if it works.

"Xiang'er, drive the mule cart home first and put everything in the cart into my room. I'll go check around the village."

"Okay, mother, you should come back early and rest for a while. We still have to travel tomorrow. You are injured and bleeding, so you need to rest more."

Han Mingxiang looked at Li Lanzhen with a little worry as she got out of the car and walked towards the village without looking back.

Li Lanzhen came to the big stone mill and looked at the big thing which was 70% new. Every household in the village paid money to invite an old stonemason from the town to come to the village to build it.

Stone mill. (Image from the Internet deleted if infringed.)

Every household in the village brings the new grain they harvest in autumn to be ground here into powder or small particles. This year, the most ground materials are dried tree bark and grass roots, which are ground into powder and are delicious for both children and the elderly.

Li Lanzhen stroked the big stone mill in her hand, thinking about the materials to be exchanged, and then the big stone mill disappeared on the spot.

She clapped her hands and prepared to go home. When she was almost home, she heard the sound of running footsteps behind her. She turned around and was stunned.

"Goudan? Why didn't you follow the village chief and the others? Where's your grandma? Are you the only family in the village?"

Goudan looked at Li Lanzhen, wanting to say something but not daring to open his mouth, and his face turned red.

"Whatever you want to say, or whatever you want me to help you with, just tell me."

Goudan rubbed his bare feet together, then raised his head and said, "Grandma Li, can grandma and I go with your family to escape the famine?"

Then, as if mustering up the courage, he said, "My grandma and I thought that your family would not flee the famine, and that we would have someone to take care of us in the village. Just now, Yinnan came to tell me that you would also flee the famine tomorrow, so I thought I would ask you, I will take good care of grandma and will not cause you any trouble. If, if, we can't keep up with you, you, you can just leave us and go on your own."

Seeing this 6-year-old child looking at her with hopeful eyes, Li Lanzhen felt pain in her heart and nodded: "Okay, we will leave before dawn tomorrow. You and your grandmother don't need to bring any heavy things. Just bring food, clothing and bedding from home."

When Goudan heard Li Lanzhen's agreement, he grinned and nodded vigorously: "Yes! Grandma Li, thank you, I understand."

After saying that, he turned around and ran away quickly.

Before Li Lanzhen reached home, she could see from the half-person-high mud wall that the yard was in a mess, with adults and children, and carts and baskets filled with them.
