Looking at the gloomy sky, Mo Yan informed Lizhong and the other two that it might snow in the next couple of days. She instructed them to transport more grain from the warehouse to avoid difficulty traveling on slippery roads after the snowfall.
Lizhong immediately ordered Tie Tou and Wang Pangtou to hurry and transport the grain. He also called for several ox carts from the end of the street to help with the task. Otherwise, going back and forth with only flatbed carts would mean darkness fell by the time they finished their second trip.
After going back and forth four times, they transported over ten thousand jin (1 jin = 0.5 kg) of grain. They cleared a corner in the shop to store it, and together with the existing stock in the shop, there would be no problem sustaining them for about seven to eight days.
