Ah Jiu was startled.

The old man seemed to have cut his own fingers with a horse's hoof, and blood was oozing out from the gaps between his fingers.

"Old man."

An old woman ran out from behind, and Ah Jiu recognized her at a glance as brother Yunhao's mother.

Then this old man is the father of the two eldest brothers Yun Hao and Yun Jie.

"Yunjie, come quickly." The old man shouted.

Sure enough, Yun Jie's face turned pale with fright when he ran out: "Dad..."

Ah Jiu suddenly squatted down and stretched out, took out the hemp rope hanging from the horse's hoof and tied the old man's wrists. This was a trick used by the older generation to stop bleeding.

Ah Jiu remembered that acupuncture to stop bleeding can only draw blood upward and avoid the affected area.

After Ah Jiu's injection, the gushing blood immediately stopped.

"Ah... you are Miss Meng from Weilan Medical Center?" The tears on the old lady's face were not yet dry, and she suddenly recognized Ah Jiu's acupuncture technique.

In the entire Nanming City, this girl is the only one who pricks her ears when treating other areas.

Ah Jiu looked at Yunjie hesitantly.

"Mom, you have recognized the wrong person. This girl is here to buy a horse. She is not Miss Meng from Weilan Medical Center."

Yun Jie's face was paler than before.

He was thinking about his elder brother's safety.

"Well, I'm not Miss Meng from Weilan Medical Center, my surname is Niu." Ah Jiu understood the strong connection from Yunjie's eyes, got up and trotted all the way.

"Yunjie, I think she is Miss Meng. She is the only one who pricks people's ears."

Yunjie's mother insisted.

"Mom, she is really not Miss Meng. Besides, the only doctor who knows how to acupuncture may not be Miss Meng."

Yunjie tried his best to explain, but there was still confusion in Niang's eyes.

"Ding dong, the merit value has increased by five points. Your total score is sixty-six points. Keep up the good work."

Ah Jiu felt a little headache listening to the sound of the system. If Master Wang hadn't forced her to treat plague diseases that she didn't understand at all, she would have reached 100 merit points by now guarding the Weilan Medical Center.

The spring water should have been enlarged a long time ago, and it should be enough for her to use water and irrigate the fields.

That's all, things are unpredictable anyway, so let everything take its course.

Ah Jiu left Mahang Street and went straight to Mihang Street.

In fact, she admired King Nanming very much. In such a harsh weather, he was able to ensure that the people in the city were not short of water, food, or rice.

Ah Jiu hasn't seen these big white rice for a long time.

Touching it with my hand, it slipped from my fingers, and I felt a lot better:

"Boss, how much does it cost per pound?"

"Fifty cents!"

"Ah? So expensive?" Ah Jiu quickly took his hand out of his pocket.

"Little girl, don't you look at what's happening now. There are many wealthy people outside the city, but there are regulations in the industry that don't sell to outsiders. Looking at the way you are dressed, you don't look like one of those homeless people. I can give you a price.

, just have fun secretly."

Ah Jiu counted on his fingers, fifty cents is a pound, and one hundred cents is one tael of silver, so that's only two pounds, which is a huge difference from the pound mother said.

Ah Jiu took out the scraps of silver given by her mother from her arms. Calculating left and right, it was only two taels of silver. If she took it all out, she could buy four kilograms.

"Do you want to buy it or not? If not, I will close the store."

The boss urged with a very bad look on his face.

Ah Jiu came back to his senses: "It's just after noon, why does it close so early?"

"Leave it to the refugees from the north. I was robbed of several loads of grain a few days ago." The boss said as he gathered up the bag of rice.

Ah Jiu is not strong enough but can understand: "Then...then I want four pounds."

Ah Jiu took out all the scraps of silver.

I watched the boss take it and put it on the scale to weigh it. Fearing that it was fake, he picked it up and put it in his mouth and bit each one one by one.

Ah Jiu's brows furrowed in pain when he saw it, and he didn't know if the boss would kill him if he knew that the money was washed out of shit.

"Four pounds, right?" As he said that, the boss packed a small cloth bag for Ah Jiu.

In these days, money can no longer be used as money. If I remember correctly, rice worth eight cents per catty can be sold for fifty cents per catty.

Thinking of this, Ah Jiu stepped out of the door with his front foot, and suddenly retracted his foot:

“Are there any unshelled rice seeds?”
