The salted fish life of the lucky wife

Chapter 141 141, the team returns

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the roof had already been covered, and the helpers who came to the village were famous for their dexterity, diligence and honesty. The work that could be done today would never be delayed until tomorrow.

Not long after the helpers left, Qi Han came back.

"How is it? Have all the people who went shopping come back?"

Although his family does not have to worry about food, Qi Yuanhua is still very concerned about this matter.

Qi Han sighed slightly, "At present, the situation is not very good."

"What's going on? Could it be that no one bought food?" Shen Yuerong asked curiously.

Qin Tianru changed her clothes and came to the main room. She had been dealing with the land all afternoon, and she was covered in mud. She had just finished washing when she learned that her brother Han had returned.

Hearing their conversation, she didn't interrupt, but sat quietly beside Qi Han and listened.

Qi Han explained, "That's not true. There are still a few people who bought grain, but the quantity is not much. It doesn't even add up to a hundred catties."

Hearing this answer, everyone was surprised!

So many people were sent out, and they were distributed to different places to purchase. Now the total amount of grain purchased is less than one hundred catties? !
This number completely exceeded their expectations.

What is the use of a hundred catties of grain?There are a total of thousands of people in the Shengli production team, how many people are divided into one person?
What's more, it's less than a hundred catties, probably not enough for a child.

Qi Han added, "However, there are still three groups of people who will come back tomorrow. The exact amount of food depends on the remaining three groups of people."

"Hey, I don't think there is much hope." Qi Yuanhua sighed, with a frown on his face.

He doesn't have much hope for the three groups of people who will come back tomorrow. The large troops who came back today only add up to more than 80 catties of food. How much can the three groups of people who return tomorrow bring back?
Shen Yuerong comforted, "Didn't Huanhuan and the others bring back wheat seedlings? At least our brigade still has a way out. As long as the seeds don't stop, our brigade won't be completely out of food."

Qin Tianru had expected this result a long time ago, so when he heard the news, he was not too surprised.

"Brother Han, what's going on outside now?"

Qi Han's eyes moved slightly, but his family Huanhuan got to the point.

"The people who came back from them said that the counties and towns around us are in chaos now. It is estimated that everyone has heard the news and is buying food like they don't want money. Now the price of food has skyrocketed."

I don't know if he was affected by his own rebirth, but Qi Han felt that the famine broke out earlier in this life.

Now even the common people in small places have heard about it, so it makes no sense that the provincial capital would not know about it.

But this is also good, if it breaks out earlier, more people will be able to prepare in advance. Although it is a mess outside, it is better than more people being starved to death.

Hearing this, everyone was silent again, especially Qi Qing and Qi Jun, with a look of panic on their faces.

The siblings lived in a relatively simple circle since they were young, and they have never encountered any setbacks or hardships. Therefore, for them, it is unimaginable that someone will starve to death because they have no food to eat.

So at this moment, hearing the news brought back by the elder brother, the siblings were a little uneasy, worried that one day their family would run out of food.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the room was very gloomy, Qi Han quickly took out two letters from his pocket to adjust everyone's mood.
