Female-dominated society: I want the world, and I also want all the most handsome men!

Chapter 105 I Want All the Handsome Men in the World

The ditch at Yan Nanfei Fish Pond has been dug.

The lotus root seeds she took out from her space a week ago have already sprouted.

Next, all you need to do is wait for the water in the fishpond to drain completely before you can plant the fish.

Yan Nanfei stood by the fishpond, looking at the outlet that resembled a floodgate, and felt extremely excited.

It will probably take a day and a half to drain the water from the fishpond.

Yan Nanfei nodded in strong agreement, in a great mood.

In the near future, this fishpond will be filled with beautiful lotus flowers, sweet lotus seeds, and crisp lotus roots.

Others achieve two things at once, but Yan Nanfei achieves three things at once, family members!

"My lady, shall we go back?" Feng Shan walked up carrying a hoe; he was the one who dug the outlet of the fishpond.

His legs below the knees were covered in mud.

Yan Nanfei looked at Feng Shan, who was covered in sweat, wiped the sweat from his face with a handkerchief, and nodded: "Okay, let's go home."

After saying that, the two walked home side by side.

A gentle summer breeze blew by, bringing a slight coolness, and ruffled Yan Nanfei's hair.

The two of them chatted and laughed, immersed in their dreams for the future.

They were so happy and so loving.

Not long after they returned home, Zhang Daya came to their house looking flustered.

"Nanfei, the mountains are closed. I have some news to tell you. There's going to be a war going to break out soon, and grain prices are skyrocketing. You should come with me to town to buy some rice!"

"Take advantage of the fact that prices haven't risen too high yet, otherwise, even if we have a lot of money, it will be so difficult to buy a single grain of rice!"

Zhang Daya was right. In times of food shortage, even if you had mountains of gold and silver, no one would sell you rice in exchange.

Because that's food that can save lives. What's the point of giving him mountains of gold and silver if he can't eat them?

Should we let it shine to illuminate the night?

"What? War? Food shortage?" Yan Nanfei seized on the key points: "Auntie Daya, who told you all this?"

Zhang Daya hurriedly said, "An old friend of mine just came to visit me, and she told me about it."

Zhang Daya's friend came to her house specifically to tell her about this.

“He said the government had already posted a notice, so it’s definitely not fake, and my friend would never lie to me.” Zhang Daya urged them, “So now, take the money and come with me to town to buy rice!”

Although Yan Nanfei had so much rice in his space, any normal person would feel panicked upon hearing the words "war" and "food shortage."

However, Yan Nanfei had the confidence to avoid being completely lost and confused.

“Okay, let’s go!” Yan Nanfei ran into the house and grabbed a gold bar.

This gold bar can buy a lot of rice, but whether it's even possible to buy it is a question. After all, there's going to be a war, and some unscrupulous merchants will definitely hoard rice and sell it at high prices.

As for the other villagers, Zhang Daya treated them all the same, calling out to them all the way to Yan Nanfei's house.

But few people believed her, after all, this happened too suddenly.

Therefore, most villagers remained calm, and only a few were willing to believe Zhang Daya's words and ride with her oxcart to town.

When they arrived in town, they discovered that what Yan Nanfei had said was indeed true.

Long queues have formed at all the rice shops, big and small, in Qingshan Town.

Everyone took out almost all their savings to buy rice, but your boss ruthlessly refused, stipulating that each person could only buy one pound of rice per day.

Even if I ask my family to buy it, they can only buy four or five pounds of rice a day at most.

Because most of these families only have four or five members.

Although the common people have deep grievances about the actions of the rice bosses, they dare not do anything about it.

Because the rice seller said that if they dared to have any objections or cause trouble, he would immediately stop selling rice.

The moment those words were spoken, everyone fell silent.

They don't want to starve to death.

Yan Nanfei and his group were at the very end of the line, and the villagers who came with them were getting impatient.

I should have brought their families with me!

But there's no turning back now; if they go back and call their families, there won't be any spots left in the queue.

Not only are there no more seats in line, but there's also no more rice available for the day.

Looking at the countless heads, Yan Nanfei felt despair.

If their family were really like ordinary people, they'd probably be frantic with worry.

Just like everyone else in line right now, they're incredibly impatient.

"My lady, are you tired? How about I carry you?" Feng Shan said, reaching out to lift Yan Nanfei, but Yan Nanfei quickly grabbed his hand: "Calm down, I don't need to be carried!"

Before they could finish discussing whether or not to hug, a huge argument erupted at the front of the crowd.

Then they surged towards them like a tide.

It turns out that the rice vendor had sold out of today's 500 jin (250 kg) of rice and wasn't selling any more!

Even other products like cornmeal and brown rice are no longer sold.

This directly ignited the public who were waiting in line.

However, the common people dared not attack the rice shop owner, because the rice shop owner had hired a dozen or twenty thugs to guard the entrance of the rice shop, and they were armed with large machetes.

At this point, people would not risk their lives unless they were starving to the extreme.

At this moment, Yan Nanfei and Feng Shan no longer needed to discuss whether to hug or not; they were immediately separated by the crowd.

What if they are in a hurry to queue at the next rice shop, and when they arrive late, the rice shop, like the one they were in, refuses to sell to them?

Yan Nanfei felt as if the crowd was rushing past her like a tidal wave, as if a strong wind was blowing around her ears.

Feng Shan, being tall and strong, quickly found Yan Nanfei trapped in the crowd, pushed through the crowd, and pulled Yan Nanfei into his arms to protect him.

Yan Nanfei also moved closer to Fengshan's chest in response.

"My lady, I'll take you out." Feng Shan looked at the chaotic crowd. At this moment, it was the worst thing to stand still, for fear that if one person fell, a hundred people would fall down with them.

Don't miss the best time to save yourself.

"Okay." Yan Nanfei and Feng Shan pressed themselves together as tightly as possible.

With great difficulty, they managed to squeeze out of the crowd.

Yan Nanfei felt his breathing become easier and quickly took deep breaths.

Seeing Yan Nanfei breathing heavily, Feng Shan quickly patted her back gently to help her catch her breath: "My lady, are you feeling better?"

Yan Nanfei didn't speak, she was busy breathing, but she nodded at Feng Shan, her eyes telling him that he was alright.

Feng Shan was relieved: "My lady, shall we go back?"

Yan Nanfei looked at Qingshan Town, where people were running and queuing everywhere, and nodded: "Okay, let's go back first."

Judging by this situation, I'm definitely not going to be able to buy rice today.

When Yan Nanfei and Feng Shan returned, they saw several groups of people fighting and bleeding because of cutting in line.
