Chapter 97 You have to pay to enter the city

Sure enough, all love is just a cloud in front of delicious food.

Gu Sanlang raised the rabbit to the side and killed it. Gu Fei rinsed it a little, and Lian'er quickly took it, "Miss Xiao Fei, tell me what you want to do, and I will do it. Don't dirty your hands."

Lian'er insisted on calling her Miss, but Gu Fei had no choice but to say, "Just chop it into small pieces."

Mrs. Chen came over and said, "Don't eat today. You've already eaten the pancakes. Save them for tomorrow."

Gu Fei nodded, "Okay, I'll marinate it first and cook it tomorrow."

She took the salt, pepper, and cooking wine and poured them into a basin, mixed them evenly with chopsticks, then covered them with a lid, wrapped them, and put them in the car.

Uncle Ma originally decided to distance himself from the spy Gu Fei, but he found that he already liked Xiao Fei. This was not possible. How could he have a good impression of a spy? At this time, he couldn't resist the temptation of rabbit meat, so he came over and said, "Little Fei, what are you going to do with rabbit meat?"

Gu Fei smiled and said, "How about making a dry pot rabbit meat?"

Uncle Ma’s Adam’s apple twitched, “That’s a good decision.”

Uncle came over and said, "Where's your rabbit skin? Don't throw it away. Let it dry for a few days. When I'm free, I can help you with the skin."

Gu Fei smiled and said: "Okay, thank you uncle, this leather can be used to make a hat for Xiaocao."

Lanzhi said from the side: "I will make the skin after tanning it, and I can also make a scarf. I think this rabbit is big enough."

Now Lian'er is here, and she has a deep sense of crisis. How can she be so smart and rush to do everything? Compared with herself, she is like a stick.

Uncle Ma arranged for the night watchman to go to bed.

Get up early the next morning and go on the road again.

There are still many victims on the road, and the moving speed is also slow.

Originally, Uncle Ma estimated that he would not be able to reach Tongcheng until the end of time, but he saw the city wall at the end of Shen Shi.

By the time everyone reached the city gate exhausted, the city gate was already closed. It was not known whether it had been closed all day or not opened at all.

There are shacks built everywhere around the city gate, especially along the base of the city wall.

With great difficulty, everyone unloaded the truck after searching for an open space despite the hungry eyes of the victims.

Gu Zhang and the village chief hurriedly looked around to see if the city gate could still be opened.

There is a river running through the city in Tongcheng. Although the water level is much lower than in previous years, there is no need to worry about water. Several families hurried to the river to fetch water.

After a while, Gu Zhang and the village chief came back after asking around, and said to everyone: "The city gate can be opened early tomorrow morning. Now the opening time has been shortened. The city gate will be closed at the end of the afternoon, and you have to pay to enter the city. An adult Three hundred coins, even for a half-year-old, but I don’t charge for a kid.”

Everyone was furious when they heard this, "Three hundred coins per person! How much money does this cost?"

The village chief squatted on the ground and sighed. His family of eight would need more than two taels of silver just to enter the city. Thinking about it made his heart hurt.

Boss Zhang was reluctant to leave and looked at Uncle Ma, "Uncle Ma, why can't we go around instead of going to this city?"

Uncle Ma shook his head, "I'm not going to the city. I haven't been there. I don't know the road. Even if there is one, I don't know how far it will take to go around."

“If you want to enter the city, go out through the east gate, which is still the official way.”

Gu Zhang said in a deep voice: "At the gate of this city, there have been large families giving porridge for several days in a row, so the victims of the disaster gathered here and refused to leave."

“I heard that the purpose of paying money to enter the city is to distinguish the victims and prevent them from entering the city and disturbing the order of the city.”

After all, those who can afford to pay the entry fee mean that they still have money and purchasing power in their hands, and they will not steal or rob.

“Everyone, let’s decide how to leave.” Gu Zhang said and didn’t care.

In fact, everyone still has some money in their hands, but they are reluctant to part with it.

Everyone talked for a while and quickly set up the stove to cook.

At this moment, Mrs. Qian looked at Xiaohong and became angry again. Did she still have to pay 300 Wen for this girl to enter the city?

There must be many cities along the way. If we pass them all the way, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold them for even a few taels of silver!

However, Xiaohong is still useful right now. Qian rolled his eyes and said, "Xiaohong, go to the river and fetch two buckets of water."
