Chapter 205: Preparations Before Hoarding Grain
Beast tide?!
When the family heard the word "tide of beasts", their eyes widened in shock.
The Shan family had personally seen the beast tide in Daohua Village before. It was only a very small beast tide. They only dealt with a few low-level monsters on the periphery of the beast tide. It was already so difficult. If
What would it look like if there was a tide of beasts in the gathering place!
Once you think about it, it makes you cringe.
My daughter's special request means that the scale of this beast wave must not be small, and it is very likely to be catastrophic.
In the world of orcs, orcs are naturally enemies with warcraft.
Every year, large and small beast tides break out all over the orc world.
It's just that the gathering place where they live and the previous Daohua Village have not had a beast tide in more than 30 years.
Many old people who experienced the beast tide have passed away.
Young orcs are inexperienced and fearful of the beast tide.
Even Shan Tianqing and Fang Lanhua had only seen small beast tides when they were young. Shan Jing'an and others had never seen the ferocity of beast tides except for the time in Daohua Village.
Even so, the beast tide left a very deep impression on Shan Tianqingfang Orchid.
At this time, the couple was very happy to have moved to the gathering place with their daughter.
If a large beast tide comes, the surrounding small villages will not be enough for the monsters to fill their teeth. The village's defenses will be like dregs in front of these monsters, and a few level monsters will be scattered in one shot.
Shan Tianqing and Fang Lanhua, who had some memories of the juvenile beast tide, immediately decided to stock up on food!
Although the elder brothers felt that it was a bit of a fuss, they were filial and would not disobey the decision made by their parents.
Shan Tianqing glanced at his old wife. He had been living with his daughter's family for a while. He knew that if it wasn't an emergency, ordinary beast-chao daughters would not speak to them so solemnly.
General Zhao is a top figure in the gathering place. My daughter has been in contact with him in the past few days, and I am afraid that the news came from him.
In this case, the couple must be even more cautious.
Shan Tianqing glanced at his wife, Fang Lanhua nodded to her husband, then got up and went to the room. After a while, Fang Lanhua came out with a cloth bag.
He opened the cloth bag and placed it in the middle of the table, "Since we are going to collect grain, we must have coins. This is all the coins our family has earned recently. Your father will divide the coins after a while, and you will go out to buy them separately."
Rong Yao glanced at the money bag and saw that it contained two gold orc coins, three silver orc coins and several copper coins.
She raised her eyebrows. Shan's parents were pretty good at saving money. She didn't expect to earn so much money in just a few days, which solved their urgent need to stock up on food.
If Rong Yao is asked to take out two gold coins at once, she really can't do it now.
But to store food for the family, Rong Yao naturally wouldn't spend even a single coin. She used to sell lunch boxes at the gate of the city defense army camp, and after sharing the money with Fang Lanhua, she also made a lot of money.
Rong Yao also took out a money bag from his pocket and put it in the middle of the table, "Mom and dad, add my share too!"
Rong Yao's money bag was heavy, containing fifty silver coins, which was quite a lot at first glance.
Shan Tianqing and Fang Lanhua were reluctant to let Rong Yao take the money. Fang Lanhua quickly stuffed Rong Yao's wallet back, "Nanny, your father and I can still afford to support you. How can we get you to give us the money? Put it away quickly and keep it."
Let’s buy things for the kids.”
Rong Yao said no, "Mom, are you still going out with me? I still have to hand over our lunch business to you. Aren't you going to share the money with me then?"
Fang Lanhua glared at Rong Yao, but didn't say anything to ask Rong Yao to take the coins back. Her eyes were hot, and she felt that her daughter was the most caring little cotton-padded jacket, hundreds of times more caring than these eldest and thickest sons.
With money, stocking up on food becomes much easier.
But as ordinary families in their gathering place, they cannot buy food in a big way, otherwise it would be bad to attract too much attention from others.
In addition, the yard they live in now is only so small, and it is a bit crowded for the whole family to live in. Where should they buy a lot of food?
Although the weather has turned cold, whether it is meat or vegetables, they will slowly deteriorate and become rotten if left like this. How should the purchased food be stored to extend its shelf life?
I didn’t want to know, but when I thought about it, I discovered that there are so many problems that need to be solved.
Even Xiao Mohan, who has experienced a lifetime, cannot give answers to these questions.
Because in the last life, when the beast tide came, he had nothing, and was even abandoned and used by the Xiao family. It was good to have a bite to eat, so he never thought about hoarding food.
But he never thought of stopping Rong Yao and the Shan family from hoarding food, because he knew that this time the beast tide was more serious than most people imagined. Later, the gathering place was besieged by the beast tide, and it was an extremely cold winter.
Many ordinary orcs in the field did not die under the claws of monsters, but died of starvation and freezing.
The entire gathering place was filled with mourners and the scene was extremely miserable.
Rong Yao listened to the questions raised by everyone and frowned as she thought about it.
Shan Tianqing said first: "The place can be solved first. We bought the big yard in a remote place. The landlord didn't know what happened, and he also left us the title deed of the house he lived in before. We
The food you buy can be separated and some of it temporarily stored in these two places."
At first I thought it was a pie in the sky, but now I think about it, I am afraid that the middle-aged landlord got the news about the beast tide through some unknown channel and left early for refuge, so he half-sold and half-gifted it to them.
The eldest brother Shan Jing'an nodded, agreed with Shan Jing'an's words, and added: "There is also a place in the backyard of the furniture shop where some can be stored."
There is nothing wrong with the cunning rabbit's three caves.
We have solved the storage problem first, and we will figure out other things together after we get back from buying food.
Fang Lanhua asked four Shan Jingle to quickly take the gold coins to a nearby bank and exchange them for silver and copper coins. Then she quickly found many empty money bags and divided the silver coins into several parts, and then everyone took them.
One copy, go out and buy it immediately.
After shopping, several people form a group and place the purchased food in different locations.
This way it won't be conspicuous.
Rong Yao and Xiao Mohan were in a group with three cubs.
Fang Lanhua was afraid that it would be inconvenient for the young couple to take care of the children's shopping, so she asked Shan Jing'an to go with Rong Yao and Xiao Mohan.
The remaining Fang Lanhua took the second and third brothers, and Shan Tianqing took the fourth and fifth brothers.
After finishing breakfast quickly, the whole family went out.
Although the purpose is to stock up on food, for example, Rong Yao, Xiao Mohan and her three cubs and Shan Jing'an go out together, so there are very few opportunities for the family to go shopping together.
With their parents and uncle around, the three cubs are in a very good mood.
Rong Yao and Xiao Mohan were rarely in a relaxed mood.
Little Xingxing was held by Xiao Mohan, Xuanjing and Xuanhan were pulled by Rong Yao, and Shan Jing'an brought a big bag with a smile and said to the little sister-in-law: "Let's go, I will take you to the busiest market nearby.
The morning market has just started right now, and everything is the freshest!"
