I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times

Chapter 367 The message tree is back

Bai Anyan lowered his head, wishing he could find a hole in the ground to crawl in. No one was on his side. Thinking about it, it was really his fault.

　　…Yes, son, keep this in mind.”

Pushing down the naughty Bai Anyan, Xiao Si rubbed his hands and looked at Bai Yunxi with excitement.

“In my opinion, when is the best time for us to sell grain?”

It is best to sell when the price of food is the highest and make a lot of money directly, so that their big house will be guaranteed.

Seeing Xiaosi gearing up, Bai Yunxi couldn't hold it back and laughed. To be honest, Xiaosi is a pretty good kid and knows what he wants.

"There is no rush at the moment. Let's wait and see for a few days to see if news of the war will come through. But now is definitely not the best time to sell food."

 At present, the surrounding farmers are gathering together to sell grain, and the price cannot be raised.

 “Okay, let’s listen to mother, let’s wait and see what happens.”

Xiao Si nodded with burning eyes and turned to look at Xiao Wu.

“You are a scholar, you know more, and your brain is more flexible than ours. At this critical moment, you should worry more so as not to miss the best time.”

Listening to Xiao Si’s praise, Xiao Wu’s eyes didn’t even change. Although the two of them were twins, their personalities were completely different. If I could say a few nice things about him today, it was like the sun had risen from the west.

“If you want to get the latest news, you should work harder these days and go to town more often.”

 As long as the news of war spreads, it cannot be concealed at all.

"This is a good idea." Xiaosi turned to Baiyunxi, looking eager to try, "Mom, why don't you leave this job to me? I promise to complete the task."

Hearing Xiao Si volunteering, Bai Yunxi thought about it for a moment. Considering the current situation, he had no objection.

"You and Du Shun are good friends. It's okay to go and inquire with him. The owner of Zheng He Restaurant is not an ordinary person. Manager Du may also have news."

"Mom, that's what I mean. Based on my relationship with Du Shun, if he knows something, he will definitely not hide it from me."

Xiao Si rubbed his chin, his eyes sparkling.

“If Manager Du got the news, he would definitely have his family stock up on food rations early. Relatives said that the more people who get the news, the faster the news will spread.

 We discussed it for a long time and finally decided on it.

 Leave the errands to Xiaosi and ask him to keep an eye on the situation in the town and come back to report the news as soon as food prices rise.

 They stay at home, always ready to go to the town to sell grain and make money.

Sure enough, on the fourth day when Xiao Si ran to town, he finally received the news about rising food prices.

The boy's feet were like hot wheels as he raced home all the way, "Mom, the price of food has gone up."

Baiyunxi asked Du to pour him a glass of water, "Sit down, take a breath, and speak slowly, don't rush for a moment."

Xiaosi took the bowl, raised his head and drank it, raised his hand to wipe his mouth,

"Mom, not only did Uncle Du say that the news about the war was accurate today, I also saw the Yamen's servants in the town. I heard that they were dispatched directly by the county magistrate."

“Shunzi and I kept guarding opposite the town government office until Zhang Baozheng sent the servants away in person, then we complained to the people around us that the time was too short.”

"Shunzi happened to have an acquaintance in the town government office, so he sneaked in to inquire about the situation, and then he found out that those officers had come to deliver documents, which were documents to supervise taxation. They said they must be delivered to the granary within seven days, and any delay would be punished."

 Listening to Xiaosi’s narration, the whole family was very excited.
