"This is......"
"There are impurities in the salt block, which was originally inedible. I purified the salt and used the rest for other purposes."
Soon Shen Xingqi knew what the filtered impurities were used for.
Cheng Xi took out a handful of yellow particles and sprinkled them on the thick snow in the yard. After a while, the snow melted completely.
Shen Xingqi: "!!!"
One tael of silver and one pound of salt, my sister-in-law actually used it to melt snow?
Where did this wealthy family come from?
Cheng Xi saw the "I've seen a ghost" expression on her face and twitched the corner of her mouth helplessly.
"Eating the filtered food is not good for your health. Now we just make the best use of it."
"Yeah, I understand! Sister-in-law, don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
"?"
Little girl, what on earth have you imagined?

"Tomorrow I will go to Fucheng with Uncle Li Zheng."
The meeting in the ancestral hall was held from noon to dark, and Shen Xingluo didn't return home until the stars and moon were shining outside.
Cheng Xi saw that he was cold and added a few pieces of charcoal to the iron stove.
"Weren't we just discussing buying food? Why are you back now?"
"A few families were making a big fuss."
Shen Xingluo's eyes were sarcastic, "Sixth uncle plans to let every household save some food for the New Year, but the price of food is not cheap, and some people think that they are spending money in vain."
Cheng Xi: "???"
It’s already this time, why don’t you stock up on food?
You are real men.
If you have the ability, always be so tough!
"I'll go tomorrow. Your presence in Fucheng is too conspicuous."
"..."
Shen Xingluo looked up at her and quickly agreed, "Okay, I'll write a letter and you can drop by the inn."
The inn belongs to the imperial court, and every time he arrives in a city, there will be a dedicated person to manage it. Cheng Daqian only needs to find the inn to have a high chance of seeing the letter.
It doesn't matter if you miss it, the letter will return on its own.
Cheng Xi felt that his father had a big bug in rescuing Aunt Sun.
Early the next morning, she set out with the villagers.
Arriving at the entrance of the village, all I could see were bears that were wrapped up tightly, or gray forest bears!
Cheng Xi could only secretly put away her thoughts of sliding over, and walked slowly behind the crowd.
Think of it as exercise.
While walking, she took the time to take out a thermometer, and the red liquid dropped to minus 16 degrees.
The 20-mile journey took three hours. By the time the men buying food arrived at the city gate, they were all numb from the cold.
"Damn, this weather is so weird!"
"No, it hasn't been this cold during the Chinese New Year in previous years."
"I don't know when the snow will stop..."
Everyone couldn't help but complain, but Cheng Xi's eyes fell on the soldiers at the city gate.
In just ten days, the gatekeepers went from four to two, and I don’t know when it started from two to six now.
Moreover, their clothes changed from simple city guard uniforms to armors, and their energy levels improved by more than one level.
Something's wrong!
She took a few steps forward and approached Shen Manyun.
"Uncle Li Zheng, let's ask everyone to buy more food today. As much as we can buy."
"What's wrong? Why do you say that?"
"Look at the soldiers at the city gate."
Shen Manyun looked at him confused, "What happened to the soldier?"
Stand up straight!
"When I came here last time, there were only two of them, and they were not dressed like they are now. Don't you feel that they are different from usual?"
"!"
Shen Manyun looked at it again and took a breath of air.
No, you stand too straight!
It’s because standing up straight is the problem!
The prefect must have increased the number of troops defending the city for prevention, and what needs to be guarded against is either the victims of the disaster or the locals causing trouble.
Neither of these is good news for Shen Manyun.
Cheng Xi saw a layer of cold sweat breaking out on his forehead in fear, so he calmly increased his pressure;
"It doesn't matter if it's just prevention. What if there isn't much food in the city and we don't let outsiders in?"
"!!!"
"Buy! Buy more!"
Buy as much as you can!
Cheng Xi calmly took two steps back and distanced himself.
A large group of people lined up to enter the city, attracting the eyes of the soldiers guarding the city again and again.
Shen Manyun had to step forward to explain a few words and gave them a few coins before he gave up.
Cheng Xi mingled in the crowd and acted as a passerby, perfectly taking the word "participation" to the extreme.
She saw a villager approaching and whispering something in a low voice, which elicited an exclamation. Then another person whispered something in a low voice... This was repeated until they reached the door of the grain store.
He is also very dedicated.
Cheng Xi was deeply impressed by the noble character displayed by this public official, and his small body took a few steps back.
***
After the snow, Shennong Mountain is covered in silver, like a sleeping giant, which is not to be underestimated.
A white and gray figure wandered in the snow-capped mountains and forests. Snowflakes fell on him, and it seemed that he was about to merge with this place.
Shen Xingluo shook away the scattered snow on his body, and his sharp gaze landed on a precise spot in the snow.
His steps did not stop, and he quickly reached his destination. The wooden stick in his right hand used force to reveal the medicinal plants under the snow.
"It's really you."
A burst of laughter rippled through the forest, and soon the ginseng plant was dug out and stuffed into the basket behind him.
[Host, host, you can put the medicinal materials into the plane shop. There are no new ones in a long time! 】
"..."
Shen Xingluo ignored it.
Ginseng is valuable and is considered a holy product in every world. If it is not available, it will be bought and exchanged for interstellar coins.
Huge debts cannot be paid off in a short while. In this case, it is better to pay them off later.
666 didn’t get a reply for a long time, so he decided to keep trying:
[Host host, the plane store can not only earn interstellar coins but also increase the points in the level. You are now level 3. After reaching level 5, you can open a store in reality! 】
Opening a store in reality?
Shen Xingluo paused slightly.
"Does this mean I will have a real shop?"
[Yes, the system will match the shop with the corresponding decoration style according to the plane you are in, and you will be the sole owner of this shop. 】
"Is there a corresponding property deed?"
【Yes! 】
666 started to draw circles on the spot, his heart was moved, his heart was moved!
The wish to persuade the host to work hard to make money is about to come true!
However......
Shen Xingluo only considered it briefly for a second and shook his head decisively.
"If I sell this ginseng plant, I can buy a shop of my own."
The implication is that there is absolutely no need for you to do anything extra.
[...Host, please listen to my cunning... Bah, listen to my explanation! 】
"explain."
[The physical store produced by the system has the strongest security system in the entire galaxy. The host in the store is invincible, so there is no need to worry about safety issues! 】
Shen Xingluo was unmoved, "If I'm strong enough, I don't have to worry about the safety of the store."
