After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man

"Dad, what's going on outside?"

Since the fifth day of the Chinese New Year, the heavy snow outside has never stopped. Several thatched houses in the village have collapsed under the snow, some of which were occupied by people.

Village chief Yang organized everyone to clean up the temporarily idle houses in the village and provide temporary accommodation for the homeless people.

Father Bai was also called away to help early in the morning and didn't come back until lunch time.

"Everything has been arranged, don't worry!"

After entering the house, Father Bai took off his thick cloak. His frozen hands slowly warmed up after being warmed by the fire for a long time.

He continued, "Thanks to the skis my dad made, otherwise it would take who knows how long it would take to walk just in the village with the heavy snow blocking the roads!"

Before it snowed, Bai Qingyun coaxed Grandpa Bai to make a few pairs of skis and a sled that could seat people.

While other families were busy visiting relatives, the Bai family was busy practicing.

With Bai Qingyun's insistence, all members of the Bai family, except the elderly, including Bai's father and mother, must learn the skills.

Now, although they may not have superb skills, they can walk on the snow normally without any problems.

"It looks like the snow won't stop. We'll have to rely on it when we go out!"

As he spoke, he pointed to the skis stacked in the corner, and everyone's attention shifted from the sumptuous meal in front of them to that place.

Xie Shuer looked at Bai Qingyun and said, "Yun'er, do you want everyone in the village to learn this?"

These words undoubtedly handed Bai Qingyun a ladder, and he could then speak.

"Yes, it will take more than one or two days for the snow to melt. Organizing people to clean up the area every day is not only a waste of time, but it can also cause people to catch a cold if they are not careful."

Catching a cold at this time is no small matter. The nearest clinic to the village is in the town, but now it is difficult to move even in the village, let alone go to the town.

If you unfortunately catch a cold, you can only rely on some herbal medicine to survive. If you can survive it, it would be the best. If you can't, your life will be in danger.

Although the spiritual spring water in Bai Qingyun's body can save lives, the heavy snow blocking the roads has resulted in a communication barrier, and it is very likely that Bai Qingyun will not be able to provide treatment.

"What Xiao'er said is right. A lot of the food stored in the houses that were crushed was buried inside. Even though we have new houses and stored potatoes now, many daily necessities were buried by the heavy snow. We don't even have cotton-padded clothes or quilts. It will be difficult for us to survive!"

"Today when we were together, we talked about how we didn't have much left to prepare before the New Year, and we were wondering when we could go to town to buy some things."

Everyone will stockpile daily necessities, which is done at the end of every year. Today, conditions are a little better, and there is still surplus of the stockpiled items.

But the sudden heavy snowfall left several nearby villages isolated from the outside world.

"How about this, first take out the unused skis at home and let the young people in the village learn how to use them first, and then we can organize everyone to go to the town to buy some."

This thing is not difficult to learn. It only takes two or three days to make and learn.

"Okay, then I'll go to the village chief's house after dinner and tell everyone to hurry up and learn."

"Dad, it's too slow for you to go alone to call people, let's come together!"

Bai Qingshan saw Father Bai put down his bowl and chopsticks and prepare to leave, so he quickly spoke.

In Village Chief Yang's family, only Yang Dashan can accompany Father Bai to notify people door to door. This is inefficient, so it would be better for everyone to go together and save some time.

This is also the reason why Bai Qingyun asked all members of the Bai family to study, so that they can come to help when necessary.

After going to school, the three brothers of the Bai family seldom participated in village affairs. They often only heard that the villagers were selling magic tofu, planting potatoes, and digging coal. Every time they heard about it, they felt regretful that they did not get involved.

Now that they have such a good opportunity, the three brothers will naturally not let it go.

"Big brother, you go to the east end of the village. Third brother and I will go to the west end. Dad, after you meet up with Uncle Yang, go find some wood to make skis! We will meet at the village chief's house in the end!"

Fortunately, because of the use of honeycomb briquettes, many households do not use much firewood at home, and the materials for making skis are not difficult to find.

What followed was the process of making and learning. With the help of the three brothers of the Bai family, the young people in the village began to have their own way of snow sports.

In the originally quiet village, figures began to appear on the snow-covered road. The originally fluffy snow began to become much harder due to human compaction.

With so many people, learning is lively and there is no shortage of talented players.

Various difficult moves quickly became popular among young people, and even children gradually began to have their own customized skis.

"Little one, we have already agreed that the village will start counting the things that need to be purchased today, and tomorrow we will form a skiing team to go to town."

"Dad, I'll go with you tomorrow!"

Ever since his rebirth, Bai Qingyun has been preparing for the present, not daring to be too radical, all for the sake of self-protection.

Even Bai Qingyun himself didn't understand why there was a food shortage when it was just a heavy snow.

In this life, I must go and find out the reason myself.

Early the next morning, the ski team gathered at the entrance of the village. Most of the things they bought were rice, salt, oil and the like. Ox carts were not convenient to use, so this time when they went out, apart from silver and money, everyone only had a shoulder pole and a large bamboo basket for carrying things.

The departure time was very early. Before daybreak, the group gathered and set off.

The road from Dayang Village to Baiyang Town passes through a forest, and the rest is farmland on both sides of the road. Under normal circumstances, the road leading to the town would be slightly higher than the farmland.

But at this moment, everything is white, and if you walk on skis, you will fall into the snow due to the height difference if you are not careful.

There was no other way, so everyone could only slow down their pace and walk carefully. A journey that usually took less than an hour took more than an hour today.

In winter, Baiyang Town has lost its former bustle and is now as quiet as Tongdayang Village.

The once bustling pier has been frozen over by the river, and all the ships passing by are stranded on the shore. Only a corner of the sails can be seen under the thick snow.

When we arrived at the market, we saw that only a few shops were open in the originally bustling market. The usual vegetable vendors and butcher shops were all closed. It seemed that they had not been open for business for a long time.

Everyone in the team was shocked when they saw this scene. Before coming, they were mentally prepared that the town would not be too lively now, but because the number of people living in the town is different from that in the countryside, even a piece of vegetable leaf on the dinner table has to be bought at the market.

No matter how cold the market is, it wouldn't be the case that not a single store is open now.

The group did not dare to delay any longer and just hoped that the grain store in the town was still open!
