"Yes!" Old Tian nodded and said, "A few months ago, I made a trip there and gave them some food."
"How much food did you give them?"
"500 catties."
"500 catties?"
"Yes."
"How many months has it been?"
"Three months."
"Have they come back to buy food recently?"
"No." Old Tian shook his head. After a pause, he continued, "They don't buy food often, even once a year.
"How do you know?"
"Because they always buy their food from me and I'm the one who gives it to them." Old Tian was proud of this. He had been giving food to the village for three years. Every time they came out, they would look for him and pay a high price.
Although it cost him some money to get people to deliver the food, he still made a lot of money from them.
"You've been to their village. Do you know how many people there are?" Sheng Fenghua asked again.
"Not many, about a hundred or so." Old Tian thought for a while and replied. He had been there a few times and there were not many people in the village.
"A hundred or so?" Sheng Fenghua frowned slightly. There were so few people in the village. How could they be self-sufficient?
"What kind of people are in the village? Are there any elderly or children? "
"I don't think I saw that. I only saw young people." Old Tian shook his head. When he went there, he only saw young people. He did not see any elderly or children.
Hearing this, Sheng Fenghua and Qin Feng looked at each other and then said to Old Tian, "Lao Cai asked you to come here. He must have told you to lead the way."
"Yes!" Old Tian nodded. He did not want to go at first. However, Lao Cai promised him some benefits, so he agreed.
"Alright, bring us there now. We will pay you after the job is done."
"No need, no need. Lao Cai has already paid us."
As the sound of his voice faded, Sheng Fenghua and Qin Feng both turned their heads and stared at Old Cai. Lao Cai waved his hand and said, "It's a small matter. Don't worry about it."
"Thank you!" Sheng Fenghua thanked Lao Cai and then said to Old Tian, "Let's go!"
"Alright!" Old Tian nodded, then led Sheng Fenghua and the rest out of the town, deep into the mountains.
The night was a little dark. The group of people carried flashlights and walked into the mountains.
After walking for about an hour and a half, the group finally arrived at the foot of the mountain. It was also the same path that Sheng Fenghua had taken to pick the cough grass during the day.
The group rested at the foot of the mountain for a while before climbing up. Old Tian walked in front, his pace a little slow. Sheng Fenghua, Qin Feng, and the rest did not rush him. They slowly followed behind him and went up the mountain.
However, when they reached the mountain, Qin Feng secretly signaled to his brothers to be careful and go around Old Tian to scout ahead.
Thus, a few of the team members left the team, went around the mountain road, passed through the forest, and climbed up the mountain. Before they came, Sheng Fenghua and Qin Feng roughly told them the location of the mountain peak, which was the direction of the village that Lao Cai had told them before. Therefore, after these pathfinders left the group, they headed straight for their destination.
By the time Sheng Fenghua and her team arrived at the fork of the mountain road, the team members were already heading in the direction of the village.
"Let's take a break," Old Tian said to Sheng Fenghua, panting. Climbing all the way, he was quite tired and could no longer walk.
Sheng Fenghua glanced at Old Tian and nodded. She then said to her brothers, "Take a break and stay alert."
