Looking After a Battle God With Hundreds of Billions in Supplies

Chapter 449: soaring prices



  Originally, the climate in Los Angeles was relatively dry, so everyone didn\'t take it seriously at the beginning, but this time the drought lasted longer than usual.

They didn\'t realize that the situation was wrong until the farmers in the fields died of drought. Many people came to the government, hoping that the people from the government would lead people to find the water source to bring the water source, but the government has never made a clear statement, and it will not happen in the end. After all, until now the well water in the city was about to dry up, and everyone became panicked.

  The wealthy family ran out early in the morning to hide from the disaster, and the rest had no way to leave.

  When the guy brought the noodles, Su Ying realized that the noodles were not pure white noodles, and a big bowl was only half filled.

   "Young master, your noodles are here. You can eat them while they are still hot. If you need anything else, just call me."

   "Thank you."

  Su Ying pushed the noodles to the aunt for her to eat, but the aunt kept refusing until Su Ying said that she would throw it away if she didn\'t eat it. Then the aunt sat down with a face of embarrassment.

While the aunt was eating noodles, Su Ying entered the space by going to the latrine and came out with test strips for testing malaria and medicine for treating malaria. Although it is not completely sure that he is suffering from malaria, from her point of view, it should be eight Nine is close to ten, and now we need the final step of confirmation.

  Su Ying went back to the room and tested the child with a test strip without the mother on her back. The result came out quickly, and it was definitely malaria.

  Su Ying took out the injection and injected it into the child, and also fed him some nutrient solution. If there is medicine, malaria can be cured, but this malnutrition needs a certain amount of time to recuperate.

   "My son, how is my grandson?"

   "I have malaria, plus I haven\'t eaten for a long time, and my health is also very poor. First cure the malaria, and other problems will come slowly."

  Auntie looked terrified, "Malaria! This, what can I do, my poor child, you are the only family member left for grandma, if you are gone, grandma will not live anymore."

  Su Ying only felt a headache when she heard the aunt\'s cry.

   "Auntie, listen to what I\'m saying, I can cure this disease, so please don\'t cry."

The aunt cried, and looked at Su Ying in surprise. She was completely panicked when she heard the word malaria just now. In her cognition, getting malaria is to die. Now hearing Su Ying say that it can be cured, she is excited. He knelt down in front of her and kowtowed to her continuously.

   "Thank you so much, young master, thank you young master, you are our savior, and the old woman will be your cow and horse."

   "Get up first."

  Su Ying dragged her to the stool and sat down, seeing that the noodles on the table didn\'t move much, the aunt was probably willing to eat.

   "Eat it first, the noodles are all mushy."

  Su Ying is right, the 50 coppers are a bowl of thin white noodles, the aunt is really willing to eat!

   "You eat, son, you eat, I, I eat pancakes, the pancakes you just gave."

  Su Ying directly put the chopsticks in her hand, "You are not in good health, if something happens to you, who will take care of your grandson?"

  Auntie\'s cloudy eyes turned red again, she couldn\'t die, otherwise the child would be too pitiful.

  The aunt ate the noodles with tears in her eyes. The clear soup with little water was not delicious at all, but it was the best delicacy for the aunt who had been hungry for many days.

  Su Ying didn\'t waste it, she finished all the soup at the bottom of the bowl.

   "You are taking care of the children in the inn, I will go out for a while."

   "Hey, young master, you are busy, don\'t worry about us."

  Su Yingen left the guest room after making a sound. She wanted to go to the city to see what was going on in the city now. If the city guards in Luo City really did nothing, she had to find a way to send the situation in Luo City to the capital.

  Su Ying arrived at the lobby, asked the staff directly for the direction of the government office, and then led the horse away from the backyard.

  The streets are empty, and only a few shops open until they reach the most prosperous main street in Los Angeles.

  Su Ying stepped forward to take a look, the grocery store, medicine store and grain store were open, and the other stores were basically closed.

  Su Ying walked to the two shops, and saw that the rice noodles in the two shops were almost sold out, leaving only some old rice that looked very bad.

   "How much is this rice per catty?"

  The shopkeeper sat on the chair and stretched out five fingers.

  Su Ying frowned, "Five copper coins?"

  The shopkeeper said with a smile: "Young master, these five copper coins can only buy one catty of rice bran now, and this old rice now costs fifty copper coins per catty."

  Su Ying\'s eyebrows twitched, fifty copper coins a catty, the price is several times higher than that of new rice.

   "What about white rice and white noodles? How much?"

   "No, it was out of stock earlier."

   "It\'s only a few days\' journey from Los Angeles to the nearest city, Xicheng. Why don\'t you go to stock up?"

   "Hey, who said I didn\'t go, just ran out of the rice shop in front of me a few days ago."

  The shopkeeper said that although the city guards the door to prevent the victims from entering, merchants who go out to buy goods can go out as long as they have a pass. After all, merchants can bring goods back to ease the supply and demand in the city.

"But who knows, the people who went there never came back. Yesterday, his old lady cried and came to pack the things in the store. She said that when she came back, she met the victims of the disaster and the gangsters. The things were gone, and the people were gone. , who dares to go, the money will be earned with their lives."

  Su Ying knew it all too well. He had encountered this kind of situation when he fled the famine. Not to mention the bandits, the hungry victims were just as ferocious as the thugs when they saw the food.

  The goods from outside cannot come in, and the things in the city are being consumed day by day. It won\'t take long for the city to get worse.

   "What does the government say about this?"

  The shopkeeper looked contemptuous, "What are you talking about? You didn\'t say anything, huh, I can\'t starve him, and the people who die are ordinary people, so he doesn\'t care."

  Su Ying didn\'t buy rice, but rode directly to the government.

  The street outside the official gate is also deserted, with only two official servants guarding the gate.

As soon as Su Ying turned over and got off the horse, she saw a man in brocade came out, he took out a purse from his body and stuffed it into the hands of the person behind him, "Please tell the housekeeper some kind words to the adults, what I told the adults is definitely true The whole of Los Angeles is beneficial."

  The butler put away the purse and said with a smile: "Master He, don\'t worry, Sir will give you an answer after you have considered this matter clearly."

   "Oh, thank you very much."

   Sending Master He away, the housekeeper put away the purse and returned to the mansion.

  Su Ying walked around the side alley, put the horse into the space, and jumped over the courtyard wall.

  As soon as she entered, she saw the butler walk into a courtyard through a bluestone path.

Su Ying looked at the eaves and climbed forward, calculated the position and lifted the tiles on the eaves, and saw the food on the table at a glance. It can be said that a table for the Eight Immortals was full, but the dishes did not move a few chopsticks .

   "My lord, Master He is gone." The butler stood in the room and said to the people sitting at the table.

   "Well, this He Zhixin has a lot of ideas, and he wants to make any money."

  The butler said: "Your Excellency, you should consider it. There is indeed a lot of oil and water in this matter."

  Master Wei gave an acknowledgment, "It\'s not that this matter can\'t be done, but I\'m determined not to contaminate this official, do you understand?"

   "Don\'t worry, my lord, Mr. He is a smart man, he must know what to do."
