Rebirth, end of the world, time travel, escape famine, make money!

Two days later.

On the afternoon of the third day, we finally arrived at Nanshan Prefecture.

I ate some dry food in the carriage on the way. Now we had arrived in the city, it was too late for lunch and too early for dinner.

When they arrived at the provincial capital, the Su family caravan’s mission was completed.

The four people who were in the same car with Liu's father and Luo Hong also got off at the city gate.

"Master Su, thank you for your care along the way."

"This is what our caravan should do." Nothing dangerous happened along the way, and the head of the Su family was relatively polite to Liu's father and Luo Hong. After all, their family was fine in the county town, and it was just so-so in the prefectural city. The Su family in the prefectural city was much bigger, so he was always inferior to them. This also cultivated his habit of keeping a low profile.

Don’t judge a person by his appearance. He may look like an ordinary person, but he may have a very powerful background that can overwhelm you.

The four people in the same car also said goodbye to the head of the Su family and followed Luo Hong and others into the city.

After two days of getting along, they got to know each other's basic situation. The four of them were classmates, and their family situations generally meant they couldn't spare anyone to accompany their children to take the exam.

So the four of them came to the provincial capital together to take the exam so that they could take care of each other.

Now they met Luo Hong and his friends who were taking the exam with their families. After getting to know each other along the way, the four of them were very fond of Luo Hong's approachable attitude. Compared with their classmates in the academy who looked down on and excluded them, the four of them felt that Luo Hong and his group were much better.

When people get along with each other, they certainly hope to make friends with people who can help them. Of course, they also need to show their own value.

Only a relationship of sharing what you have and helping each other can last long.

The wholehearted dedication of only one party will not last long.

Be it love, family or friendship.

Luo Hong and Liu's father also liked that the four were young, well-educated, and had great potential in the future. Making friends with one or two of them early on could be considered an investment in one's network.

After entering the city, Liu's father had already consulted the servant of the Su family caravan, and based on the servant's instructions, he found an inn with a good location and other aspects.

They can come ten days in advance, and so can others.

Quite a few guests have already checked into the inn, many of them dressed as scholars, apparently preparing for upcoming exams.

"Boss, give us three medium-sized rooms."

"Sir, there is only one middle-class room left. There are too many people staying here recently. The upper and lower-class rooms are also very good. Can you guys allocate them?"

Father Liu thought about it and decided that they were going to buy a house in the city. Even if the manor was too expensive, they could afford a smaller house in the city.

"Okay, give us two superior rooms and one medium room!"

The middle-class room was given to the four examinees. Although they were not very poor scholars, their families did not come, and they traveled together, so they were not very wealthy. If they were going to stay for more than ten days, the middle-class room would be the most suitable. When they bought a house later, they didn't know how big it would be, and they were not sure if they could invite four people to live together.

After Father Liu gave the middle-class rooms to the four people, they all bowed to express their gratitude.

"It's okay, clean up quickly and take a rest!"

"Yes."

The superior room is indeed much better than the medium room, with two large beds with pillows and quilts neatly placed on the beds, a table in the middle and four round stools.

Many inns here have two beds, and there are also large bunk beds. A large bunk bed is a mattress and a quilt, but it is definitely inconvenient to share a bed with strangers.

Liu Caixia and Lin Weizhong shared a room, and the other six people shared a room. If it were modern times, Lin Keyu could definitely share a room with Lin Weizhong and Liu Caixia.

But not here.

Luo Hong and Liu's father were not young after all. After the bumpy ride in the carriage, they decided to take a rest after entering the room and have a good meal at the inn or a restaurant nearby in the evening.

Lin Weizhong and Liu Caixia decided to go out for a walk. They first found a brokerage firm to ask if there were any houses or shops in the city, and then learn about the surrounding villages.

The provincial capital was indeed much more luxurious and grand than the county town. They lived on East Street and walked around several streets nearby but still ended up on East Street. They wanted to go to West Street, where there was a street of pawnshops with four or five pawnshops.

This is what Lin Weizhong asked the front desk attendant when he left the inn. The two had a clear destination, and they both wanted to understand the situation first. There was plenty of time to travel around the city.

After passing two grain shops, Liu Caixia went in to ask if there were any new varieties of grain. When she didn't get a positive answer, she asked about the price of grain.

The price of grain in Fucheng is one cent per pound lower than in Shanqing County. A load of grain is still much cheaper. But if you take into account the freight, it is not worth it. I guess the purchase price is not much different, but the profit may be lower. After all, the competition in Fucheng is relatively fierce, so the price is cheaper.

Lin Weizhong and Liu Caixia discussed it and decided to buy some to take back. Lin Keyu's space was almost empty. He had hardly used the space since coming here. He had to use it quickly this time.

So Lin Weizhong ordered 2,000 kilograms of rice and 2,000 kilograms of wheat flour. These two were what they usually used, and the rest could be bought casually in the county town. He talked to the store about the price, and generally speaking, it was about 5 taels cheaper than buying it in the county town.

One pound of grain may not be much, but it is not enough to buy a lot of grain. It is not worthwhile to go to the county town once a month to purchase grain.

After agreeing on a time to pick up the food, the two continued walking towards West Street.

After turning a corner, there were more people, which should be the main street. This street runs from north to south and is also considered the central axis of the city.

It's very lively with people coming and going.

Liu Caixia saw a crowded pastry shop and bought two packs of snacks. She kept one pack to take back. Liu Caixia opened one pack and took out a green bean cake to eat. She handed the opened oil paper bag to the other person and said, "Eat one. Dinner will be in a while."

Lin Weizhong looked at the pedestrians on the street. There were not many adults eating, but many children were holding food and eating. He felt a little embarrassed, but after thinking about it, he took a piece and started eating.

"This mung bean cake is pretty good. It tastes better than the red bean one, which is too sweet."

"Well, it's okay."

The two of them had eaten countless delicious cakes in modern times. Liu Caixia felt that this mung bean cake was the most delicious cake she had eaten since she came to this world.

The two of them walked forward while eating cakes. Perhaps Liu Caixia felt hungry, so after eating one piece, she wanted to eat another one.

Just as she was looking at the oil paper bag in her hand to take out the mung bean cake, someone next to her suddenly pulled her, and she stumbled, and the mung bean cake fell to the ground, followed by a scream,

"Oh, you are blind. You didn't even look at the road when you walked. You caused my mother to fall."
