Traveling through 1942 with space

Although Hou Pandi could barely make ends meet in the Fan family, she still couldn't have any candy. Seeing the maltose handed over by her brother, Hou Pandi was touched.

"Heiwa, why are you buying so much candy? It's so expensive. It would be much better to exchange it for food."

Hou Pandi felt that he had never seen so much sugar in his life, but he also felt it was such a waste and it would be great if he could exchange it for food.

"Second sister, I know you want to go home, but you are afraid that Dad and Mom are not around and you might cause trouble for us if you go back.

Actually, what I just said was for others to hear. I had already prepared the money to redeem you, but the Fan family was unwilling to let you go.

So, I can only say some frank words to make your life easier in the Fan family.

Don’t think about eating these candies yourself. Keep some for yourself and give the rest to the housekeeper who brought you out, and ask him to take good care of you in the future.

When we get to Qin Province, I will find time to write you a letter. Don't worry, I will take you back in two or three years at most." Hou Xiaoge whispered in the ear of the second sister.

If they had to make a living, how many people would be willing to be servants for other families? Hou Pandi was no exception. When he heard his brother's whisper, his eyes lit up and he nodded seriously.

After chatting for a while, the middle-aged man who brought my second sister out urged us to go back quickly.

Hou Xiaoge felt sad when he saw the impatient look on the middle-aged man's face.

He walked quickly to his uncle and asked him to give the housekeeper a dollar, asking him to take good care of Hou Pandi in the future and to give him gifts every year.

Uncle Hou Yangmin had been a clerk for several years, so he naturally knew that this kind of county magistrate was not as good as the current manager. He nodded, took out a dollar from his pocket, handed it over with a smile, and whispered a few words to the middle-aged housekeeper.

The middle-aged housekeeper took the big bucks and his attitude obviously improved a lot. He nodded to the uncle, called out to the second sister, and then took the reluctant second sister into the Fan residence.

Looking at the slowly closing black wooden door, a word suddenly popped up in Hou Xiaoge's mind.

"Once you enter the palace, it's like entering a deep sea!"

Although this word is not suitable to describe a small Fan Mansion, what difference does it make to a ten-year-old girl! She is even worse than the person mentioned in this word.

Finally, he lamented that his body was too small and could only let his family compromise temporarily.

"Ugh!

"Your name is Heiwa, right? Your sister is safe in the Fan Mansion for now.

When your sister is older, the mistress of the Fan Mansion will be willing to redeem her to protect some beautiful girls. Then you just need to prepare more money to redeem your sister. "Dong Chunqiu sighed and explained as he looked at Hou Xiaoge, whose eyes were full of stubbornness.

"Then I'd like to thank Manager Fan. I hope Manager Fan will take good care of my sister in the future. I will repay you when I redeem my sister." How could Hou Xiaoge understand the hidden meaning of Dong Chunqiu's words? He bowed to Dong Chunqiu, drew a pancake and handed it back.

"Okay, okay, I see that you are a very good talker, and you will definitely be a great person in the future.

I will help you with this, but don't keep it for too long, as girls will get married when they are over 15 years old." Dong Chunqiu nodded with a smile, and reminded Hou Xiaoge of the deadline.

"Manager Dong, I will come to visit you in two or three years." Hou Xiaoge nodded and replied.

.........

The money was settled, and Dong Chunqiu and the Hou family said goodbye and left.

It was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and everyone had been in the city for most of the day. Erda admitted that he was afraid that Second Aunt and the others would worry, and urged them to go back quickly.

However, Hou Xiaoge still had things to do, so he naturally couldn't go back with everyone else.

"Uncle, how much money do you have left?" Hou Xiaoge asked with a smile.

Hou Yangmin was stunned after hearing this. He thought that the boy wanted to get the remaining money back. How could this be possible?

"Oh! There's not much money left. Why are you asking this?" Hou Yangmin covered his pockets guiltily.

"I went out this afternoon and contacted a grain seller. Thirty kilograms of sorghum only costs three dollars. Give me the money and I'll buy it back." Hou Xiaoge made up a story.

"Really? A kid like you can buy food? I'm afraid they are trying to fool you. A pound of bran costs only three or four cents outside." Hou Yangmin looked unconvinced.

"Uncle, you are too untrustworthy. But whether you believe it or not, you give me three dollars and I will carry back 30 kilograms of sorghum rice." Hou Xiaoge was too lazy to make up any more lies; it was too difficult to make them up.

"Hey! Here, you've been acting mysterious all day, and I can't control you anymore.

But it's better to use this money to buy food, don't waste it, there's still a long way to go!"

Hou Yangmin sighed, looked at the nephew in front of him who was like a little adult, and finally carefully took out three dollars from his pocket and stuffed them into Hou Xiaoge's arms, then said earnestly.

"I understand, uncle. I know the seriousness of the matter." Hou Xiaoge recovered some of the losses and smiled, narrowing his eyes.

"Let your eldest brother go with you to buy food! You are too young, and I'm afraid you will be targeted by others." Hou Yangmin said unhappily when he saw Hou Xiaoge smiling.

"No need. The city is still relatively safe. You and brother can just wait for me outside the city gate." Hou Xiaoge said with his eyes rolling.

"Okay, we'll go back first. After we send your sister and the others to the camp, I'll ask Erda to come over as well. It's safer with more people outside the city." Hou Yangmin arranged.

"middle!"

After sending his uncle and the others away, Hou Xiaoge was the only one left in the city. Now it was truly “the sky is high and the birds fly freely, the sea is wide and the fish leap freely.”

After returning to the space and disguising himself as a little kid, Hou Xiaoge quietly returned to the street where Fan’s Dental Clinic was.

On the street, Hou Xiaoge made full use of the characteristics of a beggar, walking along the wall and avoiding pedestrians.

The mental power explored along the wall all the way, and actually found a lot of good things in the backyards of many people's homes, but Hou Xiaoge did not take them away directly.

Hou Xiaoge didn't know whether these people were good or bad. If he got along with the bad people, it would be fine. But if he got along with the good people, wouldn't he be harming others? Hou Xiaoge also had his own bottom line.

"Damn it, letting such a young kid pull the mill is simply like a beast!" Hou Xiaoge had just insisted on his bottom line and forced himself to give up a half-grown pig, but he didn't expect to see the scene before him.

When I probed into the yard with my spiritual power, I saw hundreds of little girls sweating profusely as they pushed and pulled several large stone mills to grind flour.

"Hmph! Let me see which business or store this is." Hou Xiaoge ran to the street in front.

"Oh shit, it's Yichunlou. Have they changed their career to run a mill?" Hou Xiaoge never thought that the place where a group of little girls were grinding mills was actually Kunyuan.

When his spiritual power probed into Yichun Tower, he saw a middle-aged man drinking wine with his hand reaching into an indescribable place.

"Oh my god, Bai Rixuan~, too refined~, too corrupt! Is this the happiness of the ancients?

Humph! I will teach you a lesson for letting you open a Kunyuan." Hou Xiaoge returned to the back street angrily.

Behind the commercial street, freight vehicles mainly use the back door to take goods in and out. Occasionally a car passes by, but most of the time it is deserted.

Hou Xiaoge came to the backyard of Yichun Building and began to carefully investigate the warehouse, livestock shed, mill and mill warehouse.

"Yes, this time I've taught you a profound lesson about making dirty money." Hou Xiaoge tilted his mouth, revealing a happy expression.

It is difficult to collect grain from the mill warehouse and the millstone, and there are little girls nearby. If I really take the grain from the mill warehouse, these little girls will end up in a miserable state.

The livestock shed and warehouse were worth a try. There were two donkeys and a sturdy horse tied in the livestock shed, and there was also a dismantled box carriage in the yard next to it.

There were too many things in the warehouse. Hou Xiaoge counted the flour and there were almost a thousand kilograms, and there were nearly ten thousand kilograms of other miscellaneous grains.

Hou Xiaoge saw almost two dead pigs alone for bacon, as well as live chickens, ducks, fish waiting to be slaughtered, and even quite a lot of fruit. It was simply too rich.

The first thing to be collected was naturally the warehouse, but in order not to bring disaster to the girls and cause them to have no food to eat, Hou Xiaoge suppressed the heartache and only collected 300 kilograms of flour and 100 kilograms of potatoes and sweet potatoes.

Hou Xiaoge also collected about one-third of the remaining fruits, vegetables, meat, seasonings, and various tools.

As for why they were not collected, is it because Hou Xiaoge is merciful?

Of course not. The truth is that Hou Xiaoge’s current mental power can only extend five meters, and he cannot reach or collect the supplies that are too far away in the warehouse.

This made Hou Xiaoge very sad, the loss was too great.

After collecting the supplies, Hou Xiaoge took out a handful of fresh grass and the scissors he had just bought today from the space and came to the livestock shed.

Donkeys like to bray, so the spiritual power wrapped in scissors and fresh grass comes to the donkey first, letting the donkey eat grass, and the scissors start cutting the rope.

In just two or three minutes, all the ropes of the two little donkeys were cut.

"Whizzing!"

The two little donkeys were eating happily when they suddenly disappeared, scaring the horses in the trough nearby so much that they stepped back.

Hou Xiaoge endured the discomfort of collecting things from such a long distance, drank a bowl of spiritual spring water, and then put the horse directly into the space in the same way as before.

Unfortunately, the carriage was too far away from the livestock shed, and mental power could only see it but not receive it.
