Chapter 2641 It can’t be true or false (1st update)
Luo Fengtang’s head was full of black lines, “I am already the father of two children and an old man, who else is worried about him?”
Yang Ruoqing did it He made a face: "What's wrong with the father of two children? As long as a man has that evil heart and courage, he will still marry an eighty-two-year-old man." "A girl of eighteen."
Luo Fengtang looked helpless and rubbed Yang Ruoqing's hair with one hand: "The more I talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes. You know what kind of person I am, Qing." Stop teasing me and sit down obediently!”
Yang Ruoqing stuck out her tongue playfully and sat down obediently.
The two of them were close to each other, and she was still holding one of his arms, which made her feel at ease.
After arriving in the county town, the first stop was naturally to go to Xu Mang, Luo Fengtang’s sworn brother, to pay New Year’s greetings.
I made new clothes, various snacks, and local specialties for the children of Xu Mang's family.
Xu Mang used to be a member of three religions and nine streams in the county town, with some exposure to both black and white sects.
Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang first came to the county to open a restaurant, and received a lot of care from Xu Mang.
Later, the restaurant became a trend, and other businesses derived from it also grew bigger and bigger. When the two of them combined, it was better to benefit oneself than to benefit others.
Xu Mang is righteous, forthright and reliable.
So I invited Xu Mang to work together in the past two years, and we all made money together and became rich together.
The Xu family's life is getting better and better. On the basis of the original yard, they also bought the yard of the family next door.
The middle courtyard wall was opened and turned into a courtyard with two entrances. The furniture in the house was also replaced with brand new ones.
Horse-drawn carriages are also used to get in and out. This configuration is considered prestigious in Wanghai County.
Xu Mang and his wife warmly received Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang, and then Yang Ruoqing took the time to visit Magistrate Zou's house.
On the second day after the couple returned from the county seat, official notices from the government were posted at the entrance of the county government office and at the entrance of Washikou in Qingshui Town.
The thought of being literate immediately made the people nearby explode. Those who were happy were even more happy and excited than the New Year that had not yet gone far away.
The good news swept through Changping Village quickly like a hurricane, and the people rushed to tell each other.
No, all the women washing clothes by the pond at the entrance of the village are talking about this.
“Yesterday I came back from my parents’ home in a neighboring town to pay New Year’s greetings. I heard them say that the price of rice will be reduced. The price will be the same as before. Have you heard about it?”
“ Why haven't you heard about it? My father went to the town to inquire about this matter and said that Washikou was serious. A notice has been posted.”
“But the rice hasn’t arrived yet, and it’s still not available outside. So the notice is fake, right?”
“Why is there such a notice? Fake? There are officers and soldiers guarding it, and there is a government seal on it, so it can’t be fake.”
"But just a notice can't do anything? The key is to have the goods. Those unscrupulous businessmen have hoarded so much rice and just won't take it out. What can just a notice do?"
< br>"Yeah, yeah, if you don't see a rabbit, you won't let go of the hawk, the rice must be put out for sale..."
"..."
For a time, there were different opinions, and they said everything. have.
Xiaojuan was also washing clothes here in the pond. When she heard these words, she didn't even bother to wash her clothes, piled them into the basin and ran back home.
Yang Huaming was also worried in the house. He also went to town early this morning and heard the news.
"Fourth brother, what should we do? If this is true, then we are going to die?"
Xiaojuan said all at once what she heard from the other side of the pond. Listen to Yang Huaming.
Yang Huaming became even more annoyed, his brows twisted into knots.
"Okay, okay, don't talk about it. I know. I'm just thinking about it!" he said. "Fourth brother, if you can't help it, go to Qing'er's place. She told you the news two days ago. Maybe she really knows the inside story." Xiaojuan said again.
Yang Huaming summed it up and nodded, "I'm going to find out what she has to say."
...
"Fourth uncle, I will tell you what you need to say that day. I told you, but you didn't listen, Now you are coming to me in a hurry, but I can’t do anything. This is the government’s decision.”
Yang Ruoqing’s family is having breakfast. The bowls of adults and children are full of rice porridge. vague.
When Yang Huaming took a look, he saw that there was enough rice and there was no need to worry about running out of food.
He felt even fainter. His eyes shifted from the porridge on the table to Yang Ruoqing, with a smile on his face.
"Qing'er, I listened to what you said. No, I'm thinking about selling rice."
"It's just that I haven't had time yet, and the government acted too fast. , as soon as this announcement comes out, will the government’s rice grains be allocated later?”
Yang Huaming rubbed his hands and asked cautiously.
Yang Ruoqing raised her hand and took a meat bun in her hand. She skillfully picked out the meatball filling with chopsticks and gave it to Baby Luo next to her. She also raised her eyelids and glanced at Yang Huaming.
"It must be soon, just these two days, so Fourth Uncle, you have to hurry up, otherwise, when the government's grain is sold, you can only hoard the high-priced grain and eat it slowly. "
Yang Ruoqing took a bite of the bun and chewed it with relish.
Yang Huaming stood there, confused.
Seeing this, Luo Fengtang took a meat bun and handed it to Yang Huaming: "Fourth uncle, don't stand there. You want to eat a meat bun too?"
Yang Huaming shook his head, how could he still be in the mood to eat meat buns?
Yang Ruoqing snorted, "Fourth uncle, just eat it. There is no need to save wheat flour for us. It is everywhere in the city. As long as you have money, you can buy it. You can eat it!"< br>
These words made Yang Huaming want to cry without tears.
Luo Fengtang took one look at the situation and secretly winked at Yang Ruoqing, telling her to stop being sarcastic.
Yang Ruoqing must give Luo Fengtang face.
She chewed the buns in silence and listened to Luo Fengtang saying to Yang Huaming: "Fourth uncle, as I said before, don't do anything speculative."
"We have definite news here. The government's food will be allocated in the next two days It's here."
"You'd better go back and pack it up as soon as possible."
...
The next morning, the government office in Qingshui Town was set up. A high stage like a big stage for singing.
Bags of golden rice are neatly stacked.
Official officers guarded both sides of the high platform, and ordinary people from eight villages in ten miles were holding bags, basins, and buckets,
waiting in long lines to buy rice. Wheat flour.
The price is fair and just, the same as before under normal conditions.
More than half an hour later, the good news reached Changping Village, and everyone rushed to Qingshui Town to buy it.
Yang Huaming and Xiaojuan were crying in the room without tears.
Clenching his teeth, Yang Huaming stood under the old maple tree at the entrance of the village, holding a pair of gongs, and shouted his slogan.
Instructing the villagers not to go to town to save them some time, he went to transport a batch of rice back, hoping that the villagers would buy it from him.
