Chapter 18 What else do you want?

Soon the cave was tidied up, but problems also arose.

The cave is not big enough to accommodate more than 200 people from Taohua Village.

Bai Dashan made a prompt decision that the men would stay outside the cave, while the elderly, the weak, women and children would be accommodated inside the cave.

"It's okay for a grown man to get cold in the rain, but if the young women in the family get frozen, they won't be able to survive in this weather."

Although this arrangement is not a good idea, it is the only way at the moment. Every family has women and children, so the villagers have no objection.

"Okay, village chief, we'll do as you say." At worst, the fire can be made bigger, and everyone can take turns to sit by the fire longer.

A real man can always bear more than a woman or a child.

Bai Tao heard it and asked, "Getting wet in the rain?"

That won't work. With this temperature and rain, several people will be killed by midnight, without having to wait until tomorrow.

So she stood at the entrance of the cave and spoke to the villagers who were moving things into the cave.

"Don't move, get out first."

The villagers were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, didn't ask anything, and quickly left the cave.

In such a situation, everyone was still so obedient and cooperative, which made Bai Tao stunned for a moment, but she didn't have time to think about it.

Little did she know that the villagers thought more thoroughly and understood more clearly than she did.

Everything that my aunt gave to everyone to eat and use along the way was extremely valuable, and they couldn't buy any of it even if they sold their belongings.

I must have a plan for letting everyone out of the cave, so just cooperate with me. Don't cause any trouble for me at this time.

The cave is indeed small, and only a portion of the people can stay outside the cave.

But it was definitely not a good idea to be exposed to the rain like this, so Bai Tao quickly found what she wanted in the mall.

For outdoor camping, you only need to tie a few corners of a large tent to trees, and eight or ten people can hide under one tent.

There is no shortage of trees to fix tents in the mountains, so this one is just right.

It was difficult to light a fire without any cover outside the cave, so Bai Tao bought a stove, which could be used to provide fire for people in the tent and to boil water and cook food.

The stove can burn firewood, but there is no dry firewood to use in such heavy rain, and it is not easy to pick up firewood in the dark, so she bought a few bags of charcoal.

After getting caught in the rain, you should drink ginger soup and take medicine.

So, buy it.

Dinner had not been decided yet, so Bai Tao quickly bought some frozen dumplings.

At this time, even if someone had the energy to prepare a full banquet, Bai Tao didn't have the energy to wait.

It is better to boil dumplings, they cook quickly. After eating a bowl of hot dumplings later, you will warm up quickly.

Clothes must be changed. She said before that she would buy some warm clothes when she had enough money.

But when Bai Tao saw the prices of clothes in this world, her face turned green.

Not to mention the quality of the material, a set of clothes costs between one hundred and eighty and two hundred coins, and those are thin ones.

A cotton-padded jacket costs more than five or six hundred coins, not to mention a cloak or a coat.

Although people in ancient times wore loose clothes and used more fabrics, this price clearly showed that she was being treated as an unfair victim.

There are more than 200 people. If you want to buy something for each of them, wouldn't it cost more than 200,000 coins?

It’s not that she is reluctant to spend the money, well, Bai Tao is reluctant to spend it.

We have only just started. All the money has been spent. What should we do next?

So, Bai Tao decisively started looking for other options.

Soon, Bai Tao stopped at a page. This, this... Her eyes moved back and forth between the style and price of the item, and she placed the order after three or four seconds.

The large flowered jacket from Northeast China is thick, warm and durable.

Most importantly, it's cheap. A cotton coat, cotton pants, a dog fur hat, and a big scarf, the whole set only costs 88 mall coins after discount.

At this price, what else do you want a bicycle?

Bai Tao felt that hesitating for even a second longer would be disrespectful to herself.

It’s not that I can’t afford it, it’s just that the big flowered jacket is more cost-effective.

The mall probably never expected Bai Tao to buy big flowered jackets for the people of Taohua Village, but she did it anyway.

Bai Tao was not afraid that the people in Taohua Village would resist and freeze to death. Even if there was a piece of rag in front of them, she would pick it up and wrap it around herself.

Don't think Bai Tao is stingy. He just bought it bit by bit and spent more than 60,000 coins.

It seemed like it took a long time to buy these things, but in fact it only took a few minutes.

However, even if it was only a few minutes, it was still extremely dangerous for the villagers who were getting wet in the rain and freezing outside the cave.

From time to time, bursts of coughing and sneezing sounds were heard outside the cave. Bai Tao always felt that there was something he had not bought, but he couldn't think of it for a while, so he had to give up.

"Dashan." Bai Tao quickly took the things out, and then called Bai Dashan towards the cave entrance: "Bring people in to move the things."

Moving something?
The people at the entrance of the cave were stunned for a moment. Shouldn't they move things into the cave? Why did the old lady say that they should move them out?

Full of confusion, Bai Dashan responded and called a few villagers into the cave.

The next second, they were stunned.

This?
This? ? ?
OMG…

"What are you standing there for? Aren't you afraid of freezing to death?" It's already this late and you still have time to be in a daze.

Bai Tao's words brought them back to their senses.

Several people were shocked and respectfully called Bai Tao: "Auntie."

Bai Tao didn't waste any words and spoke directly: "This is a big tent. Take it out and tie it to a tree to keep out the rain. Press down the hanging curtain with stones to keep out the wind."

The big tent she bought was not difficult to build, and it came with simple picture instructions that even an eight or nine-year-old child could understand.

"Ah, A-choo~" Bai Tao sneezed several times in a row. Under the worried gazes and concern of Bai Dashan and others, she finally realized that she could have changed her clothes first.

Afraid that Bai Dashan and the others didn't understand, Bai Tao endured the chill that made her teeth chatter as she quickly explained.

"These are stoves and charcoal. Let Duoxi and a few people quickly light a fire to cook the dumplings, and boil a few pots of ginger soup to warm everyone up."

Bai Tao just took out ten large iron pots. If they are not needed now, why keep them?

Although, she cursed a few times when she took it out.

"These are clothes, one for each person..." Bai Tao paused, a hint of hesitation flashed across her little face, but then she thought, I am an old lady.

I've already bought it, I can wear it if I want.

"what?"

After hearing Bai Dashan's puzzled voice, Bai Tao finally reacted and muttered out what she had said.

Now that she has said it, she is naturally not afraid to say it again.

Bai Tao: "I told you, you can wear this dress if you want."

It’s too cold, Bai Tao said, and then went to the corner of the cave.

Her sedan chair was placed here, providing just the right shelter for her to change her clothes.

You have clothes to wear, why not wear them?

Bai Dashan expressed his confusion about what Bai Tao said.

But when he untied the cloth that was wrapped around the big flowered jacket and took a look, he could not help but stand there in a daze.
