"Oh, Qiye, this kid is also a stubborn one. He has no choice but to go to the border gate! Is that border gate a fun place?"

"Girl in September, don't blame me for talking too much. If there is a chance, you should communicate with Qiye and let Qiye come back. There is really no place for him to stay there."

If it were other families, the village chief might not persuade them like this.

But there are only two siblings in the Lin family, Lin Jiuyue and Lin Qiye. Lin Qiye can be regarded as the only one in the Lin family. If it disappears, the Lin family's incense will be cut off!

No matter how powerful Lin Jiuyue is, she is still a woman and cannot continue the family legacy.

"Uncle, I thought about not letting him go before, but I was afraid that he would go secretly. There would be no news about him by then. Later I also figured it out, since he wants to go, then let him go, at least he will I will occasionally write a letter to say that I am safe."

Qiye went to the border with Gu Chengyan. Gu Chengyan's father is a general and he will definitely protect his son.

If my brother goes with me, there should be no big problem. Besides, I gave him so many life-saving pills.

"makes sense."

The village chief sighed, but this matter was someone else's business, and he was too embarrassed to say anything.

"By the way, girl Jiuyue, you said Qiye came back with a letter. How is he? Is he not injured?"

Lin Jiuyue smiled and nodded.

"Qiye is not injured, but Qiye said something in the letter, and I want to tell you about it."

The village chief looked at Lin Jiuyue doubtfully.

"Oh? What did Qiye say?"

Lin Jiuyue was silent for a moment, and then spoke.

"Uncle, Qiye said that there is a war at the border, and the imperial court has sent troops to the border. It is estimated that the war will start soon."

village head:……

"Girl in September, are you telling the truth? Are you really going to start a war?"

Lin Jiuyue nodded.

"That's what Qiye's letter said, and I guess it's not wrong. I called my uncle here today just to tell him not to sell it when the food is recovered this time. After the war starts, it's probably not going to be easy to buy food. ”

What does it mean to go to war? It means that the price of food will increase!

During a war, what is the most precious thing? There must be food!

I am alone, I can’t eat much food, and I’m not afraid of a war.

And he still has space, so there is no way he will starve to death.

But the village chief and the others are different. They are all ordinary people. Once a war breaks out and there is a shortage of food, if there are people without foresight who sell the food at home, they will really starve.

"That's right, if a war really breaks out, food will be very valuable."

"Well, it is estimated that the price of food will increase again by then. This will make it difficult for ordinary people like us to live."

After the village chief finished speaking, he lowered his head in depression.

Lin Jiuyue didn't know how to comfort the village chief. I just try my best to tell the village chief everything I know so that he can prepare as soon as possible.

"Uncle, don't worry too much. We live so close to the capital, so nothing will happen. At most, it will just be an increase in the price of food."

Even if there is a war, the people in the capital won't have anything to worry about in a short time.

It's just a pity for those who live at the border. Maybe they have begun to suffer the devastation of the war.

"Yes, we are also born well. We live at the feet of the emperor. Those who were born on the border are pitiful."

When Lin Jiuyue heard the village chief's words, he didn't know how to answer them.

There is a saying that goes well, some people are born in Rome, and some people, even if they work hard all their lives, will never get to Rome!

"Uncle, these are not things we should worry about. If the sky falls, there will naturally be tall people to hold it up."

The village chief shook his head and sighed.

"Girl in September, you don't know the cruelty of war. We ordinary people are so pitiful."

Lin Jiuyue:......

It is true that he has never experienced a war, but his understanding of war is not necessarily less than that of the village chief.

Before traveling here, I had watched a lot of documentaries and war movies. I still have some understanding of the cruelty of war.

"So what if it's pitiful? We are all ordinary people, and we can't take care of ourselves even if we want to. We should take care of ourselves first."

The village chief nodded after hearing this.

"Girl in September. You are right, the most important thing for us now is to take care of ourselves first."

The war at the border is not a big secret. Everyone who has some connections knows that there is a war at the border.

The situation near the capital is relatively stable, and in other places, many families have begun to stockpile grain. Food prices have also begun to rise.

This side of the capital is at the feet of the emperor, no one dares to act openly and openly? Therefore, the price of food here is still the same as before.

However, although the price of food in the capital has not increased, there are obviously many more people buying food than before.

"Girl in September, aren't you going to stock up on some food?"

After the village chief said this, he suddenly thought that Lin Jiuyue had opened a grain shop in the town. There is no need to store grain at all.

"Haha, uncle, I forgot that you opened a grain store in the town."

Lin Jiuyue smiled.

"Uncle, actually you don't need to be too anxious. The price of food in the capital has not changed yet. The situation at the border should be fairly stable."

The village chief nodded.

Having said that, I couldn't help but feel a little worried when I heard that fighting had begun at the border.

An ant is still living an ignoble existence, not to mention that he is still a human being?

Besides, even if I don’t care if I starve to death, don’t my family members care either? There are still grandchildren at home.

"Girl in September, you don't understand. My whole family, including the old and the young, will have nothing to eat if the price of food really rises."

Lin Jiuyue smiled.

No food? nonexistent!

Have space for yourself. The food in the space is almost filling the warehouse. Couldn't finish it at all.

"Uncle, don't worry, I run a grain store. If you are really worried and want to collect some grain, I can get some grain for you."

When the village chief heard this, his face was filled with joy.

"Oh, girl Jiuyue, how can I say that you are the most capable person in our Shangbei Village? You can even find this food."

Lin Jiuyue smiled awkwardly when he heard this.

Most of the food in his shop is high-quality grain, which is sold to wealthy families.

Of course, there are also those coarse grains, but the coarse grains come in from other places, so the quantity is not that big.

"Uncle, if a war really breaks out, the food in my shop probably won't be sold for long."
