Rice

After work, I went to a rice store close to my house. I was a bit nervous when I asked how much the price of rice had been. She told me that it was 4,100 yen excluding tax for 5 kilograms. She continued to say that the supply of rice had been increasingly difficult. She wasn’t sure when she would be able to restock rice next. The price increase was one thing, but I was truly surprised to hear that it became difficult to restock rice.
