Li Jianan looked at him sympathetically and said to the others, "Mingyu and I will ride the bikes. There is no room in the car."

"That's fine." Dad Li nodded.

The car had seven seats, so there were nine of them in total. Excluding Yan Mingyu, there were still eight people in total, although they could still fit in if they squeezed a little.

But it was a bit too pitiful to let a young man ride a bike for more than an hour by himself in such a cold weather.

Yan Mingyu looked at a few people angrily without saying a word, and ate his meal with a wronged look on his face.

Seeing this, Xu Yao picked up a steamed bun for him to comfort him, and Yan Yueen followed suit, making Yan Mingyu even more depressed.

After discussing it, a few people continued to eat before leaving.

Dad Li went to the two cow sheds to check on the buffaloes and dairy cows, especially the calves that had just been born, and then changed into clean and thick clothes and went out.

Xu Yao had already backed the car out, with Hei Shu serving as decoration on the roof, and four little golden retrievers were the first to squeeze into the aisle.

Although they are called golden retrievers, they are actually quite large in size, more than twice as large as normal golden retrievers, and each one weighs nearly 100 kilograms.

Fortunately, there is enough space inside the car and they can barely fit in.

Yan Yueen took Tang Hengdao and got on the co-pilot seat, then called the naughty Old Four to sit on the foot mat in front of him to make room for the elders in the back.

Touching the furry head of the fourth child, she said earnestly: "Don't run around outside. It would be bad if a bad guy catches you."

"There are dog leashes in the trunk of the car. Put them on as soon as you get out." Xu Yao started the car and spoke directly after listening to her words.

Yan Mingyu and Li Jianan, wearing thick fleece-lined black windbreakers and full-face helmets, also came to the side of the off-road vehicle on cool motorcycles.

He pulled up his windshield and raised his chin to Xu Yao: "Sister, do you want to compete?"

Mother Yan leaned out her head and looked at her youngest son and said, "Drive steadily, drive slowly and pay attention to safety on the road, okay?"

"I got it..." Yan Mingyu was also convinced by his mother and could only agree obediently.

"Be careful on the road." Yan Mingjing came out to see them off and gave instructions to Xu Yao, Yan Mingyu and the others.

Xu Yao nodded and drove out.

Xiaoli, Sanhua and Black-backed Zongzi also meowed and barked to accompany them for a while. The former returned to the nest, and the latter went to patrol the territory.

Sanhua walked to Yan Mingjing, pulled up his trouser legs, and pointed at the dumplings on the table: I want to eat more.

Yan Mingjing understood what it meant, so he took a few steamed dumplings and put them in its food bowl, then asked the other big cat, "Do you want to eat, little Li?"

"Meow~" The little fox shook its head and stretched, but it wanted to go and see the sweet-smelling human cub.

But the human cub is still sleeping at this time, so let's wait until he wakes up.

Yan Mingjing went to the main control room again and took a look. Seeing that nothing was wrong, and Haba was also sitting in front of the monitor, so he touched its head and went back to the room to take care of his wife and children.

On the other side, after about an hour, Xu Yao drove to the gate of the city base.

The guards at the door basically recognized Xu Yao and their car, and they registered them as usual and let them in.

Yan Mingyu and Li Jianan followed behind and entered the city gate smoothly.

Seeing that the guard at the door was no longer a familiar face, Xu Yao felt mixed emotions.

The city base has set aside a square to serve as a trading market. Following the signposts, everyone soon arrived outside the trading market.

After parking the car, Xu Yao took out the dog leash and food for trading from the trunk and handed the food to Yan Mingyu. The four parents, each holding a dog, followed behind the young people.

There is a place to exchange food tickets at the entrance of the market. After all, there are so many things and it is not convenient to exchange them all with food.

So they switched to small receipt transactions, and later people in the market would bring the receipts here to exchange for their day's gains.

One pound of grain has twenty small receipts weighing about 25 grams.

Ten medium-sized bills of one tael and two large bills of half a catty are the three denominations of tickets currently available in the small market.

It is similar to the cash we used before. When you buy something with a large bill, the boss will also give you a small bill for replenishment, but you have to exchange it with food.

Moreover, the transaction receipts of each city base are different, and the black markets that gradually emerged later also have unique seals.

The tickets you exchange here are just pieces of waste paper when you take them to other bases and are completely useless.

The ten kilograms of rice and twenty kilograms of dry corn they brought were all exchanged for tickets, ten kilograms of large tickets, fifteen kilograms of medium tickets, and five kilograms of small tickets.

The manager at the door was an old man who was so happy looking at the fresh rice and golden corn that he couldn't stop smiling.

Then he used a machine to count out three denominations of tickets and handed them to them. Several people each took a handful of tickets into the market. If they could not use them all, they could return them when they came out.

There are quite a lot of things in the small market, including simple and practical handmade furniture, books with exquisite covers, beautiful and exquisite handmade accessories, as well as electronic products and some practical outdoor tools.

It can be said that except for food, most of the basic daily necessities are available.

Yan Yueen pulled Xu Yao to the jewelry stall, looked at the exquisite and beautiful bracelets and rings, and asked politely, "How much are these things?"

There weren't many people who had time to spare to go shopping in the market, and it was great to see these two pretty girls.

The female owner of the stall also stood up and greeted with a smile: "The rings and earrings in the front can be exchanged for two items with one receipt, and the bracelets and necklaces in the back can be exchanged for one with one receipt.

The bracelets are a little more expensive, you can exchange one for one ticket, they are all made of sterling silver, and you can inspect the quality. "

Her family used to be a time-honored silver shop. The price may seem cheap, but at a time when people can't even get enough to eat, who would spend food to exchange for these useless things?

If someone is willing to accept it, you should be grateful.

Yan Yueen nodded, picked up a twisted wire bracelet, came close to Xu Yao and said, "Sister Yaoyao, what do you think of this? I think it suits you very well!"

The bracelet was indeed beautiful, but Xu Yao was not interested in it. Just when he was about to say buy it if he liked it, Yan's mother picked up two other simpler and more elegant bracelets.

Looking at the two beautiful silver bracelets, she liked them more and more. She said to the two of them, "This kind is convenient to wear. How about one for each of you sisters? They are a perfect pair!"

It is said that love is always in debt.

Silver jewelry is of great significance to the Chinese people. In the minds of the Chinese people, silver jewelry symbolizes purity, elegance and wealth, and is the embodiment of auspiciousness, beauty and lasting blessings.

Elders who love their children will prepare silver bracelets and longevity locks for their children to pray for their safety and health.

And her Yaoyao had nothing.

"Okay." Looking at the hope in his biological mother's eyes, Xu Yao did not refuse in the end.

Yan Yueen took the bracelet from her aunt and put it on her directly. The ring was a little tight, so she was afraid of hurting her so she put it on very carefully.

After putting on the bracelet, Yan Yueen took her hand and admired it. The lines of her wrist, which was as white as scallions, were elegant and smooth. She smiled and looked up and praised, "It's really beautiful."

Then he held his hand out to her, the gleam in his eyes was self-evident.

Xu Yao did not refuse. He took another bracelet and helped her put it on, with the same careful and gentle movements.

Yan's mother handed over the two winning tickets. The stall owner couldn't hide his excitement on his face after getting two winning tickets at once.

Li's mother and her family went to visit other places. Yan Mingyu watched them from the side, his young face full of satisfaction like an old father.

Just as Yan's father was about to ask if he wanted to go and look at some clothes, he saw Xu Yao pick up the longevity lock with a tiger shape engraved on it.

Yan Yueen immediately understood what she meant. Their little Yanbao is the little tiger!

However, looking at the palm-sized longevity lock, Xu Yao was still a little dissatisfied: "Can it be used as a collar? This one is too small."

She had seen other children wearing collars. The chubby little ones looked so cute wearing beautiful jingling collars.

But he is still too young now, and can only wear it when he is at least two or three years old.

The boss agreed immediately, took out a piece of paper and a pen and said, "Sure, what style do you need? Custom-made ones might be more expensive."

Xu Yao told her his requirements and directly gave her two large tickets and one medium ticket, allowing her to pick up the goods in three days.

Similarly, the longevity lock engraved with a little tiger was also wrapped up.
