    After all, Ma Mazi was the thick-skinned one. He blushed and said in a low voice: "I'm not afraid of making you laugh, sir. Our two families have almost finished the food. I'm afraid we just reached the Jiangnan seaside. So, if you don't go, you will have nothing to eat."  , I am afraid that the whole family will starve to death in the end." Gu Yezhou was stunned: "The two members are big households in the village, and they have mountains of food. How can they starve to death?" Ma Mazi said with a smile: "We didn't expect this snow disaster.  It would last for so long. I sold all the grain to buy the land. I didn't expect that a strong wind swept away most of the rice merchants' grain. All the rice merchants neither sold nor lent the grain.  The food is almost gone. If we don¡¯t leave, how can we survive? We can¡¯t even dig wild vegetables.¡± Old Mrs. Long looked at Gu Yezhou with envy and jealousy: ¡°Mr.  Foresighted, all the money was spent on food instead of buying land. Alas! If you make a mistake, you will lose everything. Now, you are the only one in our village who has enough food to survive this disaster.  A god who can predict the future." Gu Yezhou smiled solemnly and said, "Then you are all gathered around our escort agency. What's the matter?" Ma Mazi said: "That's right, we all heard about going to the beach to catch people.  The fish can be eaten. No one thought of this good idea. After learning that it was Mr. who took care of it, everyone said that they would come to express their gratitude to you. The bandits surrounded our village last time. If it hadn't been for you, Mr., everyone would have died.  Everyone in the village will die at the hands of the bandits. Everyone said that they have not expressed their gratitude to the husband yet, so they will come together to thank him this time." After that, Ma Mazi said loudly: "Everyone kneel down quickly.  Come on. Thank you for your kindness!" Hula la.  All the villagers knelt in the snow.  A chaotic voice said words of thanks.  Gu Yezhou hurriedly held up his hands and said, "Folks, please stand up! It doesn't have to be like this." These villagers slowly stood up.  Mr. Long said with a sarcastic smile: "Sir, you have purchased most of the Mo family's grain. I think you can't eat it all by yourself. I don't dare to borrow it from you. Do you think this will work? I'll buy it with you and you'll pay for it."  I will never bargain. Okay?" Gu Yezhou smiled lightly: "I'm sorry, I won't sell my food." Old Master Long took Gu Yezhou's hand and walked to a big car.  The tarpaulin covering was torn open, and boxes were stacked one after another inside.  During this time of escaping from famine, because there was no food, Mr. Long had already driven away all his servants, leaving only his family at his disposal.  Mr. Long ordered his concubine Yumei and his new daughter-in-law Xingtao to move down one of the boxes, place it on the ground, and open it. It was full of various antiques and antiques.  Old Master Longlong smiled apologetically and said: "This box of treasures cost me no less than a hundred shi of grain in exchange for it. Now I only need ten shi. I will use this treasure worth a hundred shi in exchange for ten shi of grain."  . You took a big advantage. How about it?" Gu Yezhou didn't even look at the box of antiques and said coldly: "I'm sorry, I don't want to take advantage of you. I won't sell any food.  " Mrs. Long was a little embarrassed and said quickly: "I made a mistake before. It was not you who took advantage. You were kind enough to help me." At this point, Mr. Long's voice choked up and he looked back, then said: "I  My son was thrown to death in the strong wind. His newly married concubine Pauline also died tragically. My first wife was also thrown to death. Now my family was completely devastated.  , Seeing that I am about to starve to death, even though I have countless gold and silver treasures, I still can¡¯t eat them. You just want to take pity on me and sell me some food?¡± Gu Yezhou was unmoved and shook his head: ¡°I¡¯m sorry.  "I said I won't sell the food." "You sell me a little first. If you think this box of antiques is not enough, I can add another box. How about I give you another box?"  A box of antiques for sir!" Yumei and Xingtao quickly moved another box of antiques.  Gu Yezhou shook his head and said, "Sorry, my food is not for sale." After saying that, he turned around and left, but was stopped by Ma Mazi.  Old Master Long was afraid that Ma Mazizi would buy the grain first, so he quickly dragged Gu Yezhou back. Gritting his teeth, he pointed at the cart of antiques and said, "I'll give you all the antiques in this cart! How about giving you ten shi of grain in exchange?"  ?" Gu Yezhou looked at him with a hint of sarcasm: "Exceptor Long, how many antiques have you exchanged for your food these days? It's not just this cart, right?" Old Master Long said in a low voice: "To be honest, there are seven.  Where's the car? If you want, I can exchange you for three more cars, or four cars of food! You can take a good look, every box here is a priceless antique! You can choose it yourself!  Like? ¡± &nbspGu Yezhou looked at him pitifully: "Back then, your family had a mountain of food, and all of it was replaced by these antiques that cannot be eaten or drunk. Now you are using them to exchange for food. Isn't it too comical?" Mr. Long had a look on his face.  He felt ashamed: "Who knew that this snowstorm would last so long? Who would have thought that most of the rice merchants' grains were swept away by the strong wind and they would not sell the grains? Unexpectedly" At this point, he felt  No, I didn't think of it, but Mr. Gu thought of it. At that time, he only bought food and not antiques.  I used to laugh at others, but now it's time for others to laugh at me.  Gu Yezhou said: "Okay, no matter how many antiques you have, I won't be jealous, and I don't want to sell a grain of grain. I can't help you. Sorry!" Gu Yezhou turned around and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Mr. Long:  "Sir, wait! Wait!" Mr. Long grabbed his new concubine Yumei and pushed it in front of Gu Yezhou: "Here! Two cars of antiques, plus her, I will give them all to you, in exchange for  Isn¡¯t this enough for you? - She is Xiaojiabiyu, she is good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she is also very good in bed. You will know if you try it!¡± Yumei didn¡¯t expect that the master would take it!  She went to exchange for food. She was so ashamed and angry that she couldn't help covering her face and crying.  Gu Yezhou stared at Mr. Long and said coldly: "You traded antiques for food. I thought you were pitiful. But now you trade your women for food. I can only say you are disgusting!" After that, he turned and left.  Yumei¡¯s eyes were filled with tears, looking at Gu Yezhou¡¯s back with admiration and sadness.  Mr. Long was anxious and said loudly: "I will use Yumei plus three carts of antiques in exchange for ten stones of grain for you! - Four carts! Five carts! I will exchange five carts of antiques for you ten stones of grain! Five carts of antiques."  No more cars! Damn it! Six cars for you!" Gu Yezhou sneered in his heart. He was really a miser, and he still wanted to keep one at a critical moment.  antique car.  He walked towards the door of the escort agency without looking back.  He was stopped by Ma Mazi: "Sir, please sell me some grain. I only need five stones, okay?" Gu Yezhou said: "Can you offer a higher price than him?" Mr. Long has already offered.  When six carts of antiques were exchanged for ten stones of grain, Ma Mazi didn't have that much money. All his money was used to buy land. He even secretly laughed at Mr. Long for this, saying that it would be better to buy land than buy things that can't make money.  But now he realized that he and Mr. Long were both wrong. Mr. Long guarded countless antiques, and he guarded a lot of land deeds, but the whole family had reached the point where they were without food and starving. If they couldn't think of a way, they could only  He was starving to death.  He regretted very much that he had exchanged all his grain for farmland. But there was everything in this world, but there was no regret medicine.  Ma Mazi said anxiously: "I can exchange my land for you! You can exchange as much land as you want for one stone of grain! How about it?" "I can't even look down on antiques, but I can still look down on your land?" Gu Ye  Zhou said calmly and walked towards the escort office again.  This time, it was the villagers who stopped him. They knelt on the ground and kowtowed one by one, saying: "Sir, please have mercy on us. We have no food, but we will starve to death again"  Gu Yezhou finally understood that these villagers came to him not for any reason of gratitude, but for the little food he had. If he didn't have this food, I'm afraid they wouldn't even look at him.  Gu Yezhou seemed to have not seen them, and continued to walk forward, but a large number of children ran over, holding his feet tightly one by one, kneeling on the ground and begging for some food.  Gu Yezhou couldn't even walk.  Many other old women were kneeling outside, layer by layer, surrounding Gu Yezhou.  At this moment, Gu Yezhou saw from the longing eyes of a pair of women a look that was not enthusiastic but filled with resentment.  He couldn't help but be startled, and when he looked closely, he saw a petite woman with a bright red scar as big as her hand on her face, disheveled, hiding among the crowd.  Gu Yezhou frowned. There were not many people in the village, and he already knew almost everyone. However, he did not recognize this ugly woman who seemed to have a newly injured face. It stands to reason that he would definitely have a photographic memory of a woman with such obvious features.  , but had no impression at all.  He couldn't help but look at her again in confusion, but the woman lowered her head and hid behind others.  Gu Yezhou didn't want to know who she was, but looking at him with such hateful eyes, he wanted to know the reason, but he was surrounded by so many children and women, and he couldn't even move, let alone go and ask.  That woman.  Seeing that he could not escape, Gu Yezhou frowned and said: "Okay! I can give you some food, but all my food is at the rice merchant Hu Wanghai. You line up in front of his house and give it to each person one by one.  One bowl, no one is allowed to pick it up on behalf of others, the quantity is limited??, first come, first served!  go quickly!  " So the villagers cheered, immediately got up and ran towards Hu Wanghai's house. The children, old women and women kneeling on the ground also rushed to Hu Wanghai's house. " Gu Yezhou saw the woman who looked at him with hateful eyes.  I also ran away with the villagers, but the distance was quite far, so I had no time to stop her, so I had to give up.
