Chapter 142: Sled out of the city and arrived at Lijia Village
It is best to get the kind that can be pulled by two or three dogs, and then change to a bigger one when going out to sell pork.

When running around town, you can change into a smaller pair so it won’t be so noticeable.

Li Jiayi drove Asheng and the others towards Deshengmen.

A Sheng and his friends were very fast and they reached Deshengmen in just ten minutes.

Not far from Deshengmen is the Pigeon Market, but he had no intention of going in.

Li Jiayi glanced over there when passing by. It turned out that there were quite a lot of people in Pigeon City today.

It’s actually not that far from Deshengmen to Changping, only about 40 kilometers.

But even so, it would take several hours if you took a car, not only because of the many stops along the way.

Another reason is that the road is relatively poor, and the bus speed is relatively slow at this time.

Li Jiayi's sled was faster, and he didn't take the bus, so he had to go to Changping County.

We went around directly from the outside, which was not only much closer but also much easier to walk on.

But he still took the main road. There was no other way. He didn't dare to take the small road.

In case some roads are not cleared, there is no way to get through and you will have to turn back.

Not only does it waste time, it is also very troublesome.

It took Li Jiayi just over two hours to reach Liucun Commune, which was more than twice as fast as usual by bus.

To be honest, he was quite worried about the next journey, which was from Liucun Commune to Lijia Village.

If the snow on the road didn't move, he would have no way of getting through. From the first snow to now, the total thickness of snow must have exceeded two meters.

If it's not cleaned up, it will be difficult for him to move forward.

He could use the space to clear a path, but if he did that, it would probably be impossible for him to reach Lijia Village today.

And it's also very tiring! You can imagine how troublesome it is to take one step at a time.

With a nervous mood, Li Jiayi came to the road leading to Lijia Village. When he saw the situation on the road, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The road is passable. Although there is a lot of snow on the road, there is no problem whether walking or driving.

If there is no problem for people to walk and cars to pass, then there will be no problem with his sled!
Li Jiayi glanced at both sides of the road and found that this road seemed to have been cleared by someone.

Because the snow on both sides was too high, and the snow on the middle road was only one foot thick at most.

I guess this is the snow that fell after the heavy snow, and it was trampled down by people. The snow that fell during the heavy snow must have been cleared to both sides of the road.

I just don't know who cleaned it up. It definitely wasn't the commune. There are so many villages in the commune, it's impossible for the commune to clean it up.

The most likely possibility is that it was cleaned up by people from Lijia Village. But for such a huge project, how many people from the village would be needed?

And this cannot be cleaned up in a day or two, it will take at least a week.

After all, the distance is so far, it’s more than ten kilometers!

We hurried Asheng towards Lijia Village. The distance of more than ten kilometers only took about half an hour for Asheng and his friends.

Normally, it takes more than two hours to take a bullock cart.

When they were almost at Lijia Village, Li Jiayi started to take things out of the space.

First of all, there is rice and flour. Although my grandma's family has no shortage of food, the grains have not yet been ground into flour.

In other words, whether it is wheat or corn, it is still whole. If you want to eat it, you have to grind it with a stone mill.

In addition to rice and flour, Li Jiayi also took out a lot of pork, even more than 30 kilograms of pork fat.

As for sesame oil, he took out a lot of sesame paste and sesame salt, but he did not take out peanut oil.

Although there is a lot in the space, with more than 30 kilograms of pork fat, even if my uncle's family eats it together, it will be impossible to finish it by the New Year.

By that time, he will at least come once or twice. He definitely won’t let grandma’s house run out of oil!
A can of royal jelly and a can of White Rabbit milk candy. This thing can hold five kilograms of milk candy, so you can imagine how much royal jelly it can hold.

In addition, Li Jiayi also prepared a can of tea for his grandfather. The can he used was not the one for White Rabbit milk candy, but the one for canned food.

This is not a small amount! Almost one kilogram, equivalent to the production of more than half a month.

You have to know that the time in the courtyard is the same as that outside, that is to say, most of this half month is the time outside.

In addition to these, there were also Golden Rooster biscuits and White Rabbit milk candies that Li Jiayi brought for his cousins.

Of course, peach cakes are also indispensable, but they are for my grandparents, so there is no share for my cousins.

In addition to these, Li Jiayi also brought some eggs, vegetables, fruits, etc., more eggs, but fewer vegetables and fruits.

After all, this thing cannot be explained. If there were fewer, it would be fine, but if there were so many all of a sudden, no one would believe it!
Even at home, when Li Jiayi took out fruits and vegetables, he would only take out a little at a time.

Anyway, he goes out every day and can bring it back every day, so no one suspects anything.

The main reason is that his family knew that he exchanged things with others. Otherwise, even if it was just a little bit, it would be difficult to explain.

After taking out all the things he needed and putting them away, Li Jiayi rushed to his grandmother's house.

Soon they arrived at grandma's house. Li Jiayi stopped the sled and shouted inside: "Grandma, I'm here."

In less than two minutes, the gate opened and his grandfather appeared in front of him.

"Oh! It's really you! I told your grandma that it was you, but she didn't believe me."

In fact, this is very normal. Who would have thought that Li Jiayi would come even though it was snowing so heavily!
"Grandpa, are you okay?"

"Good, very good, I can eat and sleep well."

"Oh, come in." After saying that, he saw the sled and seven big dogs. The old man was stunned. "Jiayi! This... is this yours?" Grandpa asked, pointing at the sled and seven big dogs.

"Yes, Grandpa, haven't you seen Asheng and the others?"

The last time Li Jiayi came here alone, he brought Asheng and the other three with him.

"Where did you get four big dogs?"

Li Jiayi didn't want to let his family know about the four big grey dogs yet, so he quickly said, "I'm going to come here! I borrowed a few from someone."

"That's it!"

The gate to my grandfather's house is a double door, which is quite wide and allows a sled to go straight in.

After bringing the sled into the yard, Li Jiayi unloaded Asheng and the others from the sled.

"Oh my grandson! Why are you here at this time?"

Li Jiayi had just unloaded A Sheng and the others when grandma came out of the house. Seeing Li Jiayi, she hurried over and hugged him and asked.

"Grandma, the school is on vacation now, and I have nothing to do at home, so I came to see you and grandpa."

"It's so cold outside in this snowy weather!" said grandma with concern.

"Not cold at all." Li Jiayi shook his head.

Although he was telling the truth, how could grandma possibly believe it? She thought Li Jiayi said that because he was afraid that she would worry.

"Grandma, please go in first. I'll take the things inside." Li Jiayi said, pointing at the things on the sled.

"What are you bringing? So many?" asked grandma.

"It's nothing, just some rice, noodles, meat or something, take it in first!"

"Okay, okay, take it in first."

Although Li Jiayi didn't want his grandparents to help, how could he stop two elderly people who wanted to help their grandson?

But this was much faster. Li Jiayi only took the heavy ones in and gave the lighter ones to his grandparents.

"My eldest grandson! Why are there so many things?" Grandma asked, looking at the things on the ground.

"Grandma, these rice, flour and pork are for you and grandpa. Give some of the pork fat to your uncle's family."

"What about these?" Grandma asked, pointing at the rest.

"Grandma, you can take care of the sesame oil, sesame paste, and sesame salt, but these packets of peach cakes are for you and Grandpa."

"These White Rabbit candies and biscuits are for my cousin, so you can keep the peach cakes for yourself."

"Yes! Grandma knows, so she will do as her eldest grandson says."

"Oh, grandma, here's a can of royal jelly. It's good for your health. Keep it and add some to the water you and grandpa drink in the future."

"Good good."

Li Jiayi turned around and said to the old man, "Grandpa, these cigarettes, alcohol and this can of tea are for you, please keep them well."

"And what about tea leaves?"

Although the old man likes cigarettes and alcohol very much, he likes tea more and loves to drink tea.

Unfortunately, it is hard to buy in the countryside, and you may not be able to buy it even if you go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the commune.

The tea he drank was basically jasmine tea that Li Aimin brought from the city from time to time.

People in the imperial capital prefer to drink this.

This is also the reason why Li Aimin always drinks Gaosui, because he has some tea coupons, and he buys jasmine tea for the old man.

High-fraction items do not require tickets and are cheaper.

"Yes, and it's good tea. You must keep it well."

When the old man heard that it was good tea, his eyes lit up. For tea lovers, this is very attractive.

Li Jiayi picked up the tea leaves and handed them to the old man.

The old man quickly opened it and smelled it and said, "It's really good tea. Isn't it cheap?"

"Grandpa, this didn't cost me any money. I exchanged something for it from someone else. Don't worry, drink it! If it runs out, I'll give you more."

"No, no, this much tea will last me a long time."

"Grandson, are you hungry?" grandma asked at this time.

"Grandma, I ate a lot this morning, so I'm not hungry now."

It's not even eleven o'clock yet! Of course he's not hungry. Besides, there are so many foods in the space. If he was really hungry, he would have started eating.

Of course, this is while we are on the road. Now that we are here, we can’t just take things out of the space.

"By the way, Grandpa, what's the problem with the road from the village to the commune?"

"Are you asking who cleaned it up?"

"Yeah!" Li Jia nodded.

"The village sent people to clear it out. After the heavy snow, the whole village was blocked by the snow. The villagers were worried about the children's schooling, so they sent people to clear it out. Unfortunately, the commune school was closed again, so the cleaning was in vain."

"Grandpa, this cleaning is not in vain."
