Chapter 18 What kind of bicycle do you want
Soon, the cave was sorted out, but problems arose.
The cave is not big enough to accommodate the more than 200 people from Taohua Village.
Bai Dashan made a decisive decision to keep the men outside the cave and the old, weak, women and children into the cave for shelter.
"It's okay for the gentlemen to get caught in the rain and freeze for a while, but if the young women at home get frozen, they won't be able to survive in such weather."
Although this kind of arrangement is not a good idea, it can only be like this for now. There are no women or children in any family, so the villagers have no objection.
"Okay, village chief, I'll do as you say." At worst, the fire will be bigger, and everyone will take turns to warm themselves up.
No matter what, a man can carry things better than women and children.
When Baitao heard it, did he get caught in the rain?
That's not possible. It's raining at this temperature. We don't have to wait for tomorrow. We can hang out with a few people by midnight.
So she stood at the entrance of the cave and spoke to the villagers who were moving things into the cave.
"Stop moving, get out first."
The villagers were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, and quickly exited the cave without asking anything.
Under such circumstances, Baitao was stunned for a moment that everyone was so obedient and cooperative, but she didn't have time to think so much.
Little did she know that the villagers thought more thoroughly and understood than she did.
Everything my aunt gave us to eat and use along the way was not valuable, and they couldn't exchange it for anything they sold.
My aunt must have her own plan for letting you guys come out of the cave. You just need to cooperate, and you can't cause trouble for your aunt at this time.
The cave is indeed small and can only accommodate some people outside the cave.
But it was definitely not possible to be caught in the rain like this. Baitao quickly found what she wanted from the mall.
For a large outdoor camping tent, you only need to tie a few corners to a tree, and you can hide ten or eight people under one tent.
There is no shortage of trees in the mountain forest for fixed tents, so this one is just right.
It was difficult to light a fire because there was no shelter outside the cave, so Baitao bought a stove so that he could keep the people in the tent warm and boil water to make some food.
The stove can burn firewood, but there is no dry firewood to use in such heavy rain, and it is difficult to pick up firewood in the dark, so she bought a few more bags of charcoal.
When you get caught in the rain, you need to drink ginger soup and take medicine.
So, buy.
Dinner hasn't been decided yet, so Baitao quickly bought some frozen dumplings.
At this time, even if someone had the strength to prepare a full banquet, Baitao would not have the strength to wait.
It is better to boil the dumplings, which will cook quickly. After a bowl of hot dumplings, you will feel warm quickly.
The clothes must be changed. She had also said before that she would buy warm clothes when she had money.
But when Baitao saw the prices of clothes similar to those in this world, his face turned green.
Regardless of the quality of the material, a set of clothes costs between 180 and 200 coins, which is still thin.
A cotton-padded jacket costs more than five or six hundred coins, not to mention a cloak or a cloak.
Although the clothes in ancient times were loose and a lot of materials were used, the price made it clear that she was treated as a big injustice.
There are more than 200 people, and if you buy one person, you can't spend more than 200,000 coins?
It's not that she can't part with money, well, Baitao can't part with it.
Wherever you go now, it’s all spent, what will you do next?
So Baitao decisively found someone else.
Soon, Baitao stopped on a page, this, this... Her eyes moved back and forth a few times on the style and price of the item, and she placed an order in three or four seconds.
Northeastern large flower jacket, thick, warm and durable.
Most importantly, it's cheap. A complete set of cotton-padded clothes and trousers plus a dog-skin hat and a large scarf only costs 88 mall coins after discounts.
At this price, what kind of bike do you want?
Baitao felt that hesitating for a second longer would be disrespectful to herself.
It’s not that I can’t afford it because I don’t have money, it’s that the big flowered jacket is more cost-effective.
The mall probably never expected that Baitao would buy big flower jackets for people in Taohua Village, but she just did it.
Baitao is not afraid that the people in Taohua Village will refuse to wear it and freeze to death. Even if there is a piece of rag in front of them, they will pick it up and wrap it around themselves.
Don't look at Baitao digging around, just buying them piecemeal, and leaving more than 60,000 yuan.
It may seem like a long time to buy these things, but in fact it only took a few minutes.
But even if it only lasts for a few minutes, it is still extremely dangerous for the villagers who are exposed to the rain and cold outside the cave.
From time to time, there were coughs and sneezes outside the cave. Baitao always felt that there was something else he had not bought, but he couldn't think of it for a while, so he had to give up first.
"Da Shan." Baitao quickly took out the things, and then called Bai Dashan to the entrance of the cave: "Bring people in to move things."
Moving something?
The person at the entrance of the cave was stunned for a moment. Shouldn't they be moving things into the cave? Why did the aunt mean to move outside?
With full of confusion, Bai Dashan responded and called several villagers into the cave.
The next second, they were dumbfounded.
this?
this? ? ?
Oh my god…
"What are you doing standing there in a daze? You're not afraid of freezing to death!" What time has it been? There's still time to be in a daze.
Baitao's words brought them back to their senses.
Several people called Baitao in shock and respect: "Auntie."
Baitao didn't waste any time and said directly: "This is a big tent here. Take it out and tie it to a tree to keep out the rain. The hanging curtains are pressed with stones to keep out the wind."
The big tent she bought was not difficult to set up, not to mention there were simple picture instructions that even an eight or nine-year-old child could understand.
"Ah, sneeze~" Baitao sneezed several times in succession. It was only when Bai Dashan and others looked at her with worried eyes and concern that she realized that she could actually change her clothes just now.
Afraid that Bai Dashan and others wouldn't be clear about it, Baitao endured the coldness of his teeth chattering and explained quickly.
"These are stoves and charcoal. Let Duoxi take a few people to quickly light a fire to cook the dumplings, and boil a few pots of ginger soup to keep everyone warm."
Baitao just took out ten large iron pots. If you don't need them now, keep them for as long as you want.
Although, when she took it out, she cursed a few times.
"These are clothes, one for each person..." Baitao paused, a trace of hesitation flashed across his face, but then he thought, I am an aunt.
Anyway, I bought them all, whether I like them or not.
"Huh?"
Hearing Bai Dashan's confused voice, Baitao reacted and muttered the words himself.
Now that she has said it, she is naturally not afraid of saying it again.
Baitao: "I told you, do you like to wear these clothes?"
It was too cold. After Baitao said this, he went to the corner of the cave.
Her sedan was placed here, and there was just a sheltered place for her to change her clothes.
There are clothes to wear, why not wear them?
Bai Dashan didn't understand what Baitao said.
But when he untied the big flower coat and took a look, he couldn't help but froze on the spot.
