Chapter 87： Chicken in the county

Chapter 87 Selling Chickens in the County

"Grandfather, why don't we sell all these chickens?"

Yin Miao tried to suggest that although there are also chicks hatched from hens at home, most of them were taken out of the space by her.

The chickens and ducks in the yard are growing up, the ones in the space are growing faster, more hens can lay eggs, and new chicks are born every day. She is now starting to worry that the space will be flooded with chickens.

"Sold? In the village?"

In addition to being happy, Yin Zhenghong was also a little worried. Now he can feed chickens and ducks with locusts. After the locust plague, what will so many chickens and ducks eat?

"Well... it can also be sold in the county, as long as it can be sold."

Yin Miao thought about it, she observed that other people's chickens and ducks are growing well, and many of them lay eggs and hold their cubs, even if they sell them now, it makes sense.

"This idea is good, anyway, every household is in short supply now."

Zhen also agreed.

"So, I'm going to go to the county tomorrow. I will take these to the county and sell them, and then I will sell them in the village when I have them."

Yin Bowu said after knowing that his family was selling chickens.

I didn't expect that a month ago they couldn't buy things they wanted to buy, but now they are too many to keep up.

"That's it, but how much money should I sell this chicken for?"

Wei Shi asked, it is not good to sell too expensive.

"When you go to the county to take a look, it can't be too expensive, and it can't be the price of cabbage, right?"

Yin Bowu is also undecided, he has never sold anything.

"Miao'er and dad go together."

Yin Miao said, as long as you go to the county, you will have the opportunity to consume food.

"Miao'er is worried about going with her, in case she gets separated again..."

"If I go to the county, I don't know if Uncle Yin can take the younger generation along for the ride. I haven't bought anything for a long time, so it's time to buy some more."

Wei's words were not finished, but Xiao Xuan came out of the house.

"You go to the county? It's not impossible..."

Yin Bowu thought about it for a moment, and indeed since he came to the village, Xiao Xuan has never been out of the village, and he can understand if he wants to go out.

"Then I'll trouble Uncle Yin."

Xiao Xuan finished speaking, but saw the little girl beside her with surprise in her eyes.

Yin Miao was really surprised, before Xiao Xuan either pretended to be sick or didn't go out, but this time he has to follow them to the county, what's the trouble?

But when she went out on the road the next day, she realized that their carriage had just left the village entrance, and Xiao Xuan really put on the human-skin mask in the car.

"With Yunjiang Yunhe it is easier to be recognized."

Xiao Xuan said.

"This mask is easy to use. It looks the same when you wear it on Dad's face, and it looks the same when you wear it on your face."

Yin Miao stared at the unfamiliar face in front of her for a moment.

"That's natural, otherwise this mask wouldn't be sold for 10,000 taels of gold."

Yin Bowu, who was sitting in front of the car and driving a carriage, laughed.

Two thousand taels of gold? !

Yin Miao gasped, she really didn't understand the world of the rich in ancient times.

Not long after the carriage drove, the three people's attention was shocked by the scene on both sides of the road.

The green trees on both sides have turned into bare trunks, and even the plants on the ground have been eaten up by locusts, leaving only the bare loess surface, and there are still swarms of locusts in the air. of flying.

The carriage traveled for dozens of miles, and it was such a desolate scene.

"I thought the village was already in a tragic situation, but I didn't expect this to be the case everywhere."

Yin Bowu said.

"If it doesn't rain again, it may be difficult to recover."

Yin Miao understands plant habits. Plants without leaves cannot perform photosynthesis better. If there is a prolonged drought, it will accelerate the death of the plant itself.

But she also knew that there would be a prolonged drought in the north, with little rainfall.

"Hey, how will the life of the common people live in the future?"

Yin Bowu sighed deeply.

In addition to the bleak scene on both sides of the road, before the three of them reached the gate of Changling County, they saw a large number of refugees and beggars on the side of the road. Some people even built shacks at the gate of the county town, and they all surrounded them when they saw horses and carts approaching.

"Dad, don't stop."

The father and daughter who had seen the power of the Beggar Gang once did not dare to be careless. While Yin Bowu was driving fast, Yin Miao took out a prepared bag of buns and threw them out of the carriage.

When the beggars saw something thrown out, they ran backwards to grab it, and the carriage passed the city gate smoothly.

Yin Miao was also relieved, but the carriage ran over a stone at this moment, and Yin Miao, who was staggering, almost fell behind.

Just when Yin Miao was ready to fall, the expected pain did not appear, but she fell into a broad embrace.

“…”

The atmosphere froze for a few seconds, looking at the enlarged mask face in front of her, Yin Miao blushed suspiciously.

She wanted to stand up and say thank you calmly, but was lifted off the ground by the other party, and then placed her firmly on the seat.

"It's okay, the road just now was so uneven."

Yin Bowu couldn't look back, the roads in the county town were not like before, and he had to be careful of beggars who suddenly ran out.

"...It's okay, Dad."

Yin Miao replied immediately, and then whispered to the opposite side, "Thank you."

Xiao Xuan nodded, his hands on his knees clenched slightly, as if there was something left inside...

Since there were several baskets of chickens on the carriage, Yin Bowu did not store the carriage this time, but drove directly to the market.

"There's no one here to sell anything."

Yin Bowu said that there are about three or five stalls selling goods in the entire market. There are still some open doors on both sides of the storefront, but no customers appear.

"Maybe it's because the locust plague hasn't completely ended yet. Why don't Miaoer sell chickens here and Daddy take Young Master Xiao to buy them?"

Yin Miao wanted to take out a few more little yellow chickens to mix in, because she found that there were a lot more chickens in the space this morning.

"How about that? I don't worry about your girl's family selling things here."

Yin Bowu said.

"We found a place to put it out first, maybe it will be sold out soon."

Xiao Xuan's suggestion was also supported by Yin Bowu, and the three simply got out of the car and set up a booth together.

As soon as the twittering little yellow chicken appeared at the market, people were attracted to it very quickly, and even the shopkeeper of the oil workshop ran over after seeing it.

"This is for sale?"

The shopkeeper of the oil mill was a short, dark-skinned man, and he asked with a face full of surprise.

"Yes, it was born by our chickens."

Yin Bowu felt that what he said was inappropriate, but the shopkeeper of the oil mill didn't care, and then asked them how to sell it.

"60 cents each."

Yin Miao saw that Yin Bowu was stunned, so she had to say it herself.
