“Yes, yes, grandma, it’s all bad for me!

It’s all my own decision! Don’t get angry anymore, it hurts your body when you are angry!"

Cui Ming quickly comforted his grandmother and sat down again, laughing and admitting his mistakes. No matter where he was wrong or whether he realized his mistakes or not, it would be fine to admit his mistakes first.

So what can Mrs. Cui? Everything is already like this, can you still regret it?

"I really don't know what you have learned in Shangjing. We will handle my affairs with Lao Liu as soon as possible, so there is no need to bother you.

I have something else to ask you.

Have you noticed that the price of grain has risen a bit sharp this year? Some time ago, when I was chatting with you, Aunt Mei, I heard her say that the price of grain has risen very much. It was originally sold for two yuan per pound, but this year it has risen to more than three yuan, nearly four yuan.

This is not high-end rice, it is the kind of local rice we eat every day.

After so many years, the grain prices have not risen so outrageously. I also heard from others that the north has risen absurdly, and ordinary rice has risen to more than four yuan, five yuan per pound!

Even if northerners don’t eat rice often, the price is a bit outrageous, and I heard that the price of their flour has also risen!

This is not good!

If you buy so many supplies to stay at home, at least tell me what’s wrong and make me feel confident, otherwise I will always feel panicked.”

The elderly, especially those who have experienced the famine period, are quite sensitive to the rise in grain prices.

The sensitive part is not that you can’t afford to buy food in the future, but that you have nowhere to buy food with money, just like in the past.

This is the most terrifying place.

Cui Ming has been busy with his own affairs during this period, so he really didn't pay much attention to the market. After hearing his grandmother's words, he quickly picked up his phone and asked the Chinchilla to adjust the fluctuations in grain prices across the country in recent months.

He also said, "Grandma, wait a little first, I'll check the market data!"

Because food prices are transparent and there is no need to worry about anything, the statistics from the Totoro are naturally very smooth.

In less than three minutes, this year's grain price fluctuations had already been posted to Cui Ming's mobile phone.

Cui Ming opened the chart and looked carefully for a while and found that the food price did fluctuate greatly in the past two months, just as his grandmother said.

To be precise, grain prices were relatively stable before May. Although they were still slightly fluctuating, the fluctuation was not large compared with the fluctuations in the previous five months.

However, starting from the end of May, from the beginning of harvest in some places, grain prices began to rise in small areas. After most places completed harvests in July, the grain prices in places with small fluctuations rose by about 30%, and the grain prices in places with large fluctuations even doubled.

This is obviously very unusual.

Because their country's grain prices have always been manipulated by the government and suppressed by the government, the price of ordinary food has always been kept at a relatively flat level that everyone consumes.

However, the increase in grain prices is now significantly beyond the government's original control.

Although there may be free market rules, the country obviously dare not release grain as before to stabilize grain prices.

All of this is releasing a very bad news, that is, there should be a large-scale reduction in grain production this year, and the future situation may not be very optimistic.

Although Cui Ming had expected it, he did not expect that just the beginning, grain production had already fallen so much, and it was so powerful that the country could not regulate.

After watching it, I thought for a while, then I raised my head and said to his grandma more seriously:

"Grandma, if I don't tell you what I say to you today, please keep it confidential. Even Old Man Liu, don't tell him.

According to the information I have collected, the whole world will enter a difficult period starting this year, and we can also call it the Little Ice Age.

The main manifestations are temperature drops, droughts and floods will be more frequent, and the scope is estimated to involve most areas of the world, and grain output should also be greatly reduced.

This is not only true in our country, but throughout the world. The difference is just how much it has fallen, so it may be difficult to fill the gap in the domestic market by importing grain from abroad.

You have also been to school, and you should also know what the natural disasters in the late Ming Dynasty looked like, and you should also know what the 1942 year looked like.

Therefore, it is always right to stock up on more food. You must find a way to hide all the things in your home and try not to let others know.

Also, if possible, I hope you can find a way to motivate the village chief to raise funds to make some grain bricks. Wasn’t our village able to successfully spend 42 years and those three years because of the grain bricks passed down from ancestors?

Now the grain bricks have been eaten long ago, and no one will make them again. If something happens again..."

"How could this happen? God really doesn't make people live a peaceful life. I've just lived a good life for a few years, why did something happen again?"

Old Mrs. Cui's face suddenly became sad and sad. She had never experienced the disasters of 1942 years, but she remembered them very clearly.

That day was hard.

I originally thought that life would get better and better from now on, but I knew that there would be such a thing.

"Grandma, don't worry, no matter what, I will not be hungry for you, please relax.

You turned around and talked about the situation with the village chief, and then told the village chief that I am willing to donate five million to support our village in making grain bricks!

No matter what, everyone is from the same clan and family. You can’t eat and drink and let others starve to death. Do something now, so that the villagers will not be jealous of the villagers in the future.

In this way, don’t talk about the rise in grain prices or something. You just say that I want to invest in helping the ancestral hall in the village. The bricks used in the ancestral hall were all grain bricks. Now, the original bricks must be used to show respect for the ancestors.

How do you think that's what you said?"

Cui Ming said this, first of all, he really wanted to do something for the village, and secondly, he was worried that his grandmother would not want to go to the county town with him and would live in the village. At that time, when the situation was really bad, who would care about the villagers?

With such a favor, the villagers have to take care of his grandmother more.

Of course, if his grandmother doesn’t live in the village, she will treat it as a reward for the village!

"It's okay to say that, the village chief should be willing to do it too. In fact, the village chief had the idea of ​​rebuilding the ancestral hall ten years ago, but everyone was unwilling to donate money, so it was delayed in the end!

No, where did you get so much money?

You bought so many things, and I thought you had spent almost the same amount of money, so how could you take out another five million!"

Old Mrs. Cui agreed at first, but then began to ask about Cui Ming's source of funds, and was not very happy to donate it so much.

It’s better to keep so much money for your own home, and it’s better to buy two houses. Why donate it like a fool? Donating it may not be as good as others. It’s just that people are stupid and have more money.
