Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

Chapter 349 Return Home

"I want to eat candy." Mu'er said crisply.

Although Mu'er had never left the mountains since she was born, Xu Han had given Mu'er the candy she had bought from the space several times.

There is no child who doesn’t like eating candy, and Mu’er is no exception.

But Xu Han didn't allow him to eat too many sweet things, and had been restraining the number of times Mu'er ate candy, so when Mu'er heard that there was candy to eat, he was very happy.

"Okay, grandpa will take you to buy some candy." After Grandpa Zhao said this, he took Mu'er's hand and walked forward.

Lu Chuan and others followed closely behind. Thanks to the cart, it really saved a lot of effort to push Ze'er along the way.

When Ze'er saw his brother leaving, he stretched out his chubby little hands and kept moving forward. As he saw himself getting farther and farther away from his brother, he kept humming.

"Hahaha, Ze'er wants to eat candy too? Come on, Taoist grandpa will take you to buy some." After saying that, he picked up Ze'er from the stroller and started to chase Mu'er and Grandpa Zhao.

"Hahaha, I don't have to look after the children anymore." Xu Han said with a smile.

Lu Chuan also had a smile on his face, and the two of them walked slowly behind him.

Finally, he followed her into the grocery store, looked around, and finally Xu Han bought some things that were frequently used at home and paid for them together.

"Is there anything else you want to buy? If not, let's find a place to eat. We will go back after dinner." Xu Han asked.

"No, I think the restaurant over there is pretty good and there are a lot of people. Why don't we go there?" The Taoist priest said, pointing to the restaurant nearby.

"Okay, let's go there. Today, our family of six will go out to eat together." Xu Han said happily while holding Ze'er.

"Okay, okay, it's your treat."

"Okay, I'll pay for all the expenses today." Xu Han said with a proud look on his face.

"Then we won't be polite and will only choose the expensive ones."

"Order whatever you want, but don't save money for me."

A few people walked into the restaurant talking and laughing, and a waiter came to greet them immediately.

"What would the distinguished guests like to eat?"

"What's your restaurant's specialty? How much does it cost?"

"Our signature dish is roast chicken for 60 cents and shredded pork noodles for 20 cents. Would you like to have one?"

"Okay, give me a roast chicken, five bowls of shredded pork noodles, and a plate of vegetables."

"Okay, please wait a moment." The waiter said and left.

“The price is not bad, not expensive.”

"Yes, supplies are still in short supply at this stage. The fact that they can be sold at this price shows that the boss is still very conscientious." Grandpa Zhao continued.

"See how it tastes. If it tastes good, we'll come here often in the future."

"If the price and taste are right at this stage, are you still worried about not having business in the future? This boss knows how to do business."

"That's true. Not all bosses have this vision. For those who have this vision, their business will naturally not be too bad." Xu Han said.

"It seems that Xiaohan has some talent for business. She can even think of this."

"Hahahaha, I'm going to earn a fortune for my son in the future, so of course I have to understand a little bit about these things."

“Hahaha, then Grandpa Zhao, I will invest in you in the future.”

"Okay, I absolutely agree with you. You said it, Taoist priest, please bear witness for me. You are not allowed to go back on your word."

"I testify that if the money is not enough, I can also sponsor you."

"Okay, okay, if you want to do business in the future, you don't have to worry about not having enough money. Come, come, I toast to you two." Xu Han picked up the teacup very generously and drank it all in one gulp.

The group was chatting happily when the waiter brought the food.

"This noodle looks like it has a big portion and looks delicious. It makes me hungry just by looking at it." Lu Chuan said.

The Taoist priest took a bite and said, "It tastes okay, but I think it's not as good as the one made by the girl."

"Few people can compare with Xiaohan's cooking. The taste is already pretty good."

Actually, Xu Han felt a little guilty when she talked about this. Her cooking skills were not particularly good and were far behind those of modern people with good cooking skills.

They thought it tasted good, probably because they used a lot of modern seasonings when cooking.

However, Xu Han did not deny that there are indeed many chefs with good cooking skills in this era. Even if they use natural ingredients and no seasoning, the taste of their dishes is definitely not bad.

It is said that some chefs use various soup bases to stir-fry dishes when cooking, which makes the meals more fragrant and tasty.

Dishes made with different cooking methods have different textures and flavors. Compared with people who really know how to cook, Xu Han is really nothing.

"I think it tastes good. I can eat here when I come to the county next time. We can also try other dishes there."

"I agree. The food here is better than the restaurant I ate at before." Lu Chuan continued.

The few of them chatted while quickly eating lunch, and immediately set off for home after eating.

It’s getting late. If we don’t leave now, it will be dark by the time we get home.

Today, I came to the county town and didn't buy much else except custom-making a boat.

First, my family is not too short of these things, and second, there are not many types of things available for purchase in the county town at present, which is far less than before.

This is something that cannot be changed. Long-term natural disasters have brought too many disasters to this county. If we want to restore it to its former prosperity, it will still take time to settle.

But it's already the end of April, and I don't know how long this peace can last.

At least the few people who have come to the county town have not heard of any war.

Relatively speaking, the current situation is stable, but we don’t know when this stability will suddenly end.

Xu Han could only take advantage of this period of time when she could still come to the county town to buy things and try her best to buy all the things the family would need for the next three years.

Even if the family currently has everything they need, they can still stock up more if they have enough money.

After the war, it takes some time for society to return to normal.

"We're finally home. I haven't walked such a long distance in a long time. I'm really tired. I can hardly lift my legs." Grandpa Zhao sat down on a chair, saying breathlessly.

"You just lack exercise. Look, the girl is now stronger than you. You should continue to practice with us from tomorrow. Otherwise, when outsiders break in, you won't be able to run away."

It was rare that Grandpa Zhao didn't argue with the Taoist priest this time. He said, "You are right. Starting tomorrow, I will follow you to exercise like before."
