The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and there have been several snowfalls, and more villages have come to the county to borrow food.

They even recruited older former village chiefs as lobbyists. Those village chiefs are usually among the best figures in the village.Now, crying in front of the magistrate, she is full of snot and tears.

Although there are early warnings in the county, most people are still not prepared enough.The weather was bad, and we couldn't find a bite to eat even up the mountain.I heard that all the beasts on the mountain came down the mountain to break into the farmhouse in order to find food, almost hurting people!

This winter has been extremely difficult.

The county magistrate has food in his hands, and he has a lot of people to protect. The government-run tofu workshop, the government-run brick kiln factory, and several villages that make cotton clothes.The snow removal teams in the county all provide meals.Although they eat coarse grains, they eat grains very quickly in a day.

There are too many people who come to borrow food, and the county magistrate is also embarrassed.Said: "Each village borrows a thousand catties of grain."

The village chiefs of several villages were in tears at this moment.Although a thousand catties of grain may sound like a lot, each village has as few as [-] households and as many as [-] households.Every family has ten catties and eight catties, which is enough to do anything.

The Chinese New Year is just around the corner, and the next year will be the beginning of spring. This year is bound to be a bumper harvest year due to the snow, but every household has no rice to cook, and they are afraid that they will not see a bumper harvest in the coming year.

Catcher Zhu saw them crying, and said, "Why are you crying? The county magistrate has already given special grace. The county is also short of food, and it's all saved from mouths!"

Zhu Butou is now sending people out to check the sentry every day, and he heard that someone is coming here again.Those disaster victims have to be busy for a while.Since the snowstorm came, he hadn't slept for a few days, and he didn't have any patience.

Several village chiefs said: "We know it's difficult in the county!" Holding back tears.

Zhu Butou then left. There were only a few village chiefs in the house, still discussing ways.

"How about, let's buy food." No matter how important money is, life is not important. They all brought money before they came.

The other village chiefs frowned and said, "Are you crazy? The county's coarse grains cost [-] cents a catty. And each person can only buy ten catties." I heard that the stock is often out of stock, which is controlled by the county magistrate, those merchants I wish I could sell it for fifty cents a catty!

There is no way to get money in the village, unlike the conditions in the county.Many people in the countryside can't earn a tael of silver a year.

This matter is difficult no matter what, didn't the magistrate borrow them a thousand catties, so they had to go back and deal with it first.

Let's talk about the future.

"How about we beg the deputy head catcher. According to the old mayor, he is young and promising."

The village chiefs said so.His eyes lit up when he heard it: "Yes."

Most of the village heads have been taken care of by the old mayor.

The old mayor has helped many young people over the years, but very few of them can get the title of young and famous in his mouth.

I heard that he was also born in the countryside, so he can better understand the difficulties in the countryside.So go to He Zifeng.

The yamen servants said: "Okay, I will look for it for you." He Zifeng is a restless person, and he usually checks everywhere.Recently he always runs to the hospital.I heard that the medicinal materials in the medical hall are not enough. He has some relationship with the bodyguard bureau, so he can think of a way.

Sure enough, when the little yamen servant went to look for it, He Zifeng was helping make medicine.

The little yamen servant saw He Zifeng's work and said, "Deputy catcher, why are you here?"

He Zifeng said: "It's not enough to make frostbite ointment here." The doctor sees the doctor, and the apprentices take care of the patients and also take care of the medicine.The little drug boy is too busy now.He Zifeng saw that those little drug boys were a little older than his own son.Feeling sorry for their hard work, I helped them for a while.Left and right, he is used to doing work in the countryside, and he does it very neatly.

With He Zifeng's help, the job of pounding the medicine was made easier.He didn't get up until the little yamen servant came to him.

The little yamen servant then told the village chiefs that they were crying and looking for him, and He Zifeng said, "Got it." Then he told the little yamen servant to leave first.He went back to the house on the other side of the compound, went down to the cellar, and counted how much food was left.Food has been used during this time.Grain flowing out of the soup kitchen!

He still has [-] catties of surplus grain in his hand.

Food is something that will go bad, and it doesn't mean that the more you hoard, the better.

If it is not well preserved, there will be insects and mildew. After a long time, even the best preserved grain will have a stinking smell.

However, what He Zifeng harvested was the best at the beginning, and the grain of this quality could be sold out in a day.

He Zifeng left the cellar and returned to the county.

As soon as I went to these village chiefs, I came to them and said good things in every possible way. I hope He Zifeng can find a way.

"We really can't survive without food."

"Please."

After speaking, there was an old man who wanted to kneel, but He Zifeng quickly grabbed him and didn't let him kneel down, otherwise his life would be shortened.

He Zifeng said: "How much food do you still lack?"

There were people from five villages present, and they wanted to say [-] jin.But I am afraid that others will say that they are lions.It would be bad if he was thought to be a greedy person!

They looked at each other, and said tentatively: "It would be great if I could have two thousand more catties." This is the least.

He Zifeng said: "Can you accept buying grain?"

Everyone also knows how scarce food is now.If the supply is in short supply, who will give it to him for free.

A village head said: "Yes, we didn't take the money! Those merchants don't sell if they have money."

The person next to him said: "But it's better to make it as cheap as possible." Most of the villagers can't afford the sky-high price of twenty yuan a catty.

He Zifeng said: "I'll tell you the truth, but you can't tell others. Once the news gets out, I'll ask you one by one to settle the matter!"

When everyone heard it, they still didn't know what he was going to say, Fuzhi said in his heart: "Don't worry, our mouth is the strictest."

"Make sure you don't get a single word out of your head."

"Correct!"

He Zifeng said: "I have a friend who has five Wen a catty of grain. If you are willing, you can sell you three thousand catties at most, and you can get the grain after ten days." He Zifeng calculated that [-] catties should be enough .

This is life-saving food, he kept it in advance, and didn't let the food be confiscated by the food dealer, so it would be safer to put it on him.You can use it now.

He Zifeng doesn't seek fame and fortune, he only talks about his friends.

Many of these former old village chiefs belonged to He Zifeng's grandpa.In such a cold day, it must be impossible to come to such a far county to borrow.

When everyone heard five cents a catty, their breathing became heavy.

Now there is no such price.Said: "If it's five Wen, are there any more? Our village can afford ten thousand catties."

"Yes, and as much as you want!" How can it be so good, say that three thousand catties per person will be divided.

He Zifeng said: "Okay, you only want two thousand catties, it's not bad to have an extra thousand catties."

"Thank you."

"You are the great benefactor of our village."

"Great." With food, we can survive this winter.
