10 SHAME

A stone of grain can produce at least 70 pounds of rice, even if the worst, half a stone of 60 pounds always have it?

According to the worst-case calculation, eight money forty-one and six per cent can buy a stone of rice, even if the business wants to make money, according to common sense, one or two silver is the most.In previous years, when the autumn harvest,the rice is one or two silver and a stone.

Mu Shi and Liu Daqian both sank their faces,Liu Daqian calmly asked: "You bought rice yesterday is really one or two or three money to buy?""

Mu Shi nodded.

Liu Daqian's hand shook slightly, " This, this bad, actually earned almost twice..."

Mu Shi also lowered his eyes and did not speak. The grain shops in the town and the county were opened by rich people, and the three members of the town were also among them.

Mu Shi said, " I was thinking of going to the county tomorrow to sell the leather goods and then tunen some grain..."

"Do not buy," Liu Daqian said: "Every household in the village has food, you go to the town and the county to buy?"It's cheaper for those bastards...."

Mu Shi was silent. Before the price of grain rose, he was afraid that the border had changed and wanted to go south, but now the price of grain on their side was pushed down, and the tax rose again this year. It was clear that someone was maliciously raising the price of rice in the county and town, and lowering the price of grain in the country.

This year's foot money must be silver,and the only thing that rural people can change is food.Those people must be complicit in lowering the price of food, so no matter who they sell it to, the price of food is the same.

Mu Shi saw that Liu Daqian was full of sorrow, thought about it, and went into the house and took one or two and a half dollars and silver out."Uncle, my family has paid tax and silver, and there is only so much left, as if I bought food with you.""

Liu Daqian clenched the money in his hand and sighed:"I asked your brothers to carry the grain for you later, both of which are the new grain this year.""

Mu Shi busy said: "The price is in accordance with the grain price at this time last year."

At this time last year, the price of food was about four dollars and ninety-five articles.

Liu Daqian nodded, got up and said: "My family's foot money is Qi, but so many people in the village are still in the dark, I go and a few old guys in the village to discuss, see if there is any way, can not be so confused to ask people to calculate.""

Liu Daqian left behind his back.

Mu Yangling was cleaning the yard,and saw it and shouted, " Uncle, take care of yourself.""

Liu Daqian nodded slightly, " Aling, your cousin Lang picked up two rotten books,you go back to my house to see,if it is useful, you go to get it back to your brother to use, they do not know a large word, it is useless to keep.""

Mu Yangling answered with joy, " I'll wait for the sun to fade.""

Liu Daqian's grandson Liu Lang likes to go around the streets and alleys to play, often to pick up some things at home, as long as it is a piece of paper to send to their home.

Because only the Mu family of the whole patron village can read, to be precise, only Shu Wan Niang can read.

Mu Shi and Mu Yangling brothers and sisters are followed by Shu Wan Niang to read.

Also because Shu Wan Niang can read, although Shu Wan Niang is not very good at work and there is no wind and wind, literacy in this era is too tall.

Mu Yangling looked at Liu Daqian gone, and then ran back to the house, and asked in a hurry: "Father, do we still have food?""

"Tun, why not Tun?We buy directly with the folks,do not have to run to the town and the county,can save a lot of money, then sent to the town mill to grind rice."

Shu Wan Niang sighed: "It is easy to harvest a year, I thought that everyone's day can be relaxed, who knows, but was deliberately pressed down on prices, grain cheap hurt farmers ah.""

Mu Shi scratched his head,and there was no way he could do it.

"Father, the price is all local squire, we sell the grain to passers-by merchants will not be finished?"At least I can offer you a little price."

Shu Wan Niang shook his head and smiled, " There is no such simple as you think.""

Mu Shi also said: "Now is the autumn harvest, there is more or less grain everywhere, the grain price has fallen, plus the road is far away, who has nothing to run to the border to transport grain?"All right, we adults can't think of a good way,you're a child out of the mix."

despised.

Mu Yangling is very angry, although she is a child on the outside, but inside is an adult, an adult!She said she had to find a way to do it, or she would have lived in vain for so many years.

Mu Shi did not know what her daughter was thinking, saw her eyes wide open,said: "This is the big people's business, you have been busy for most of the day, now go to play with your brother, look at him, don't ask him to go out to bask in the sun for too long.""

Mu Yangling saw that Mu Shi turned to go to the warehouse, and asked curiously, " Father, what are you doing in the warehouse?""

"I'm going to tidy up the leather goods, go to the county tomorrow, your mother will be about to give birth,the family will leave money."Mu Shi distressed her daughter tired for most of the day, said: "You go to play, if you do not want to play, go to the house for a while, tomorrow father will get up early, it is estimated that it will take the middle of the night to come back, so tomorrow you do not go to the mountains, at home to take care of your mother and your brother.""

Mu Yangling's eyes turned, answered a sound, ran out to find his brother.

Xiao Bowen is obediently shaking his head to recite the"Three-character Sutra", Mu Yangling ran forward to pull the book in his hand, said: "Don't recite, go play with my sister.""

Xiao Bao Bao struggled inside, said: "But my mother told me to memorize the fifth page before I can go out to play.""

"You have been carrying it for so long,and it is not good to carry it down, it is better to play with me for a while, come back in the evening and carry it again, and I will help you burn the fire and cook dinner at night, you just endorse it.""

Xiao Bao Bao just showed a happy smile,a good nod: "That sister, where are we going to play?""

"First go to Cousin Lang's house, he picked up two books with words, let's see what books, can be used, and then I will take you to the dog eggs to play with them."

Dog Egg is the only son of Liu's widow, and Xiao Bao Bao is only five years old, and he is the child of the five or six-year-old children in the village. Xiao Bao Bao often plays with them.

Xiao Bowen happily took the book back and put it away, ran out and took her sister's hand and jumped to Cousin Long's house.

Linshan Village is most surnamed Liu, there are Ma Surnamed Hu and Zhang Surnamed, Mu surnamed only their family, so as long as Linshan Village Mu family, we all know that they mean their family.

The Mu family lived at the foot of the mountain, five green brick and tile houses, in the village is unique, is Mu Yangling's grandfather married grandmother before the construction, I do not know how many people envy.

A quarter of an hour to the southeast is the most densely populated place in the village, in which the great uncle and his family are.

His great uncle Liu Daqian had three sons and two daughters, but in the end only two sons stood, the second grew to three years old and died of illness,the two daughters died in the war 12 years ago, Mu Yangling's grandfather and grandmother also died in the war.

So the great uncle now lives with his two sons, and does not separate the family.

Because it was a busy autumn, the adults were in the field to collect, there were not many people in the village,the brothers and sisters came to meet one person, and the children over the age of six were probably thrown into the field to work.

Big cousin Liu Lang is putting his eight-year-old brother Liu Lun in the basin to bathe, while washing and scolding:"I told you not to obey, waiting for dad to come back at night to see if he can beat you.""

Mu Yangling pushed the door in, looked at the two people in the yard blinked, and asked, " Cousin Lang, Cousin Lun, what are you doing?""

Liu Lun"ow "a sound, pulled over the stool on the clothes on the chest, shouted:" Do not look, turn around, turn around!"Brother, get her out of here!"

Liu Lang Leng Leng looked at his brother, and then suddenly jumped up in front of his brother, shouting:"Watch, cousin, you go out first, wait for Alan to wear clothes and then you come in.""

Only eight-year-old little Dou Ding, who dares to dare ah?

Mu Yangling rolled a white eye, took the sluggish brother out, and shut the door by the way.

Liu Lun jumped out of the basin and began to dress in a hurry. His eyes were red and he was about to cry out,"She saw it, she must have seen it, why didn't you just close the door?""

Liu Lang argued: "How do I know that someone will come, this time we are not all in the ground?""

Liu Lun wronged to wipe the tears, Liu Lang busy: "Don't be sad, she certainly did not see, when you were sitting in the basin, and you still move so fast.""

"She really didn't see it?"

"No, it must not be," he said.Liu Lang certainly said.
