Chapter 1802 Hope not

The servant quickly helped the shopkeeper up, and pulled him into the shop.

When the shopkeeper sat on the chair inside and took a sip of hot tea, he took a breath.

He stretched out his hand and also attracted the servant.

The servant hurried over and stood in front of his shopkeeper. He really didn't know that the shopkeeper's half-dead look was so stupid that he wouldn't have been stolen by someone, right?

"Shuzi, Shuzi..."

The shopkeeper pointed outside and said weakly.

"Closing the shop?"

The servant was still a little puzzled, "What shop is it closed?"

“Grain shop.”

The shopkeeper said another thing, 80% of it was used to use his strength to feed himself.

"Shopkeeper, what does Guan Shuzi do?"

The servant didn't understand, why did the shop be closed?

"Shut, go to Shut."

If the shopkeeper can move, what else should the servant do?

The servant scratched his head, and finally closed the shop as the shopkeeper said, and also put the words "inventory".

If you want to ask why the shop door was closed, the shopkeeper was also a sober man. He walked in the Shuo Palace once, and even the one asked about the price of grain. It seems that the shortage of food has now alarmed those wealthy people, and soon, the court will also alarm.

I am afraid of this disaster this year. Now he has closed the shop, not because he is afraid of the court, but because he sells food without food. What should he do if he starves himself to death?

His family has been doing rice and grain business for several lifetimes, and naturally it is also on it. He has a feeling that the grain will be deserted, so the food in the shop can't be sold anymore.

It seems that it is not a big deal to close this grain shop in the capital. For those who are still comfortable living in the capital, if one family has closed the grain, there is no other family.

Which one’s grain is not grain, and which one’s grain is rice, not rice.

Even the price of grain is rising day by day. At first, no one may have noticed it. The poor people have some complaints. After all, the money that could sell fine grains in the past can only buy coarse grains.

However, for wealthy families, more or less, they still cannot have any thoughts in their minds.

In the Shuo Palace, Shen Qingrong brought Xiao Tuanzi to see her sister again.

Shen Qingci rubbed Tuanzi's little face for a long time, and Tuanzi had always had a good temper. He also asked his aunt to pinch his little face and smiled foolishly from time to time.

It also made Shen Qingci very interested. Such a young child is fun, but it’s a pity that her little garden has returned. Otherwise, if the little garden is still there, she would have taken the little garden with her every day.

She poked the dumpling's face again, "The snacks made by the chef in the mansion are good, so I'll make some for him later, but it's better not to be greedy for sweetness."

The wet nurse listened on the side, and she also remembered it in her heart.

"I see that he is a little sleepy, so you can take him to sleep for a while."

And Xiao Tuanzi was really rubbing his eyes, and he was really sleepy.

The wet nurse hurriedly hugged Tuanzi from Shen Qingci's arms, and when Tuanzi reached the wet nurse's arms, she was already lying on the wet nurse's shoulders, and she was so sleepy that she yawned.

This is true for children. When sleeping, they have to sleep. No matter what happens outside, they have to sleep, which means they can fall asleep without any movement.

The wet nurse held the child and gave a greeting to Shen Qingrong, and Shen Qingrong, and then followed Bai Mei out.

Bai Mei was careful to take them on another road. It was raining outside. It was hot and it suddenly became cold. It was not like getting wet from the rain.

In the house, there were only two sisters Shen Qingrong, and even a servant who served him was not there. Xiaoli and the others were all guarding outside, and they were all extremely quiet.

“The food prices outside are starting to rise.”

Shen Qingci gently stroked the white porcelain teacup in his hand, without any trace of pattern, and it was not weighed in his hand. Of course, this thing will definitely not hurt even if it hits someone.

However, it is impossible for Shen Qingci to use this tea to avoid smashing people. She is reluctant to give up such expensive things, and she is also reluctant to give up on the things she bought with money.

Shen Qingrong sighed, "It's really soaring."

She also knew about this, and she had heard from Jin'er.

"How much food has my elder sister collected?"

Shen Qingci asked Shen Qingrong.

"I have already collected a lot," Shen Qingrong also calculated in his heart, and there are really a lot.

Since my sister mentioned this, Yuwen Jin had already secretly collected it. Because they were afraid of attracting attention from others, they did not collect it locally, but went to other small places, but the harvest was not very smooth. After all, food was the foundation of the people. After the disaster, everyone went out to sell less grain, let alone a lot of food.

Except for the fact that they received some at first, they were intermittent and difficult to collect them, but fortunately they still collected some. If there is really no grain to buy in the desert, at least, the food collected in their mansion will be enough for the people in the mansion to eat for about a year, and they can also evenly produce some and deliver it to the three princesses at that time.

They were still collecting them before, and of course they secretly handed them over to the three princesses, asking them to collect some in case of emergency.

She heard from Yu Wen Jin that her three aunts attached great importance to food, and of course she guessed that food might be owed.

So without saying this, it is all about secretly purchasing grain.

"That's good."

Shen Qingci looked up at the outside again. It has been a while since they had not seen the sun or clear the sky.

She hasn't seen any year that would have had such a bad rain.

"A Ning, do you think there will be a food shortage?"

Shen Qing couldn't help asking again, and she had always felt unsure. Although there was enough food in her mansion, if there was really a shortage of food, no matter how much food they had in their mansion, it would be impossible to survive alone.

"I hope not," Shen Qingci didn't know, but she was telling him that it might be like this. It just depends on where it will go in the end?

The two sisters looked at the rain outside at the same time. No one felt relaxed, and no one could sleep well.

As the rain continued, there was an inexplicable feeling in the capital city, which seemed to make people feel uneasy.

There are many people in the entrance of each grain shop, and they are rushing to buy food, rushing to the front to buy it. When the line comes to the back, there is no grain to sell when it comes to the turn, otherwise the grain shop will close the door directly.
