The young man who spoke out was not a bystander, it was Jiang Mengzhen who was "invited" out of his house by Hao Cheng.

He still has injuries on his body, and taking this mountain ginseng can indeed replenish his body.

It's just that Hao Cheng remembers clearly that this man had nothing to do when she picked it up, where would there be six hundred taels of silver to buy her ginseng.

As soon as she was about to speak, Xiao Er, the shopkeeper in the pharmacy behind her, showed dissatisfaction: "She wants to sell us this mountain ginseng first." ”

If no one wants it, she may be reserved for a while, waiting for Hao Cheng to come back and reduce the price, after all, they are the only one in this town that can eat five hundred taels of ginseng. But when a person suddenly came out to steal business with them, she naturally fell behind.

Without waiting for her to speak again, Hao Cheng stared at the man who came out to stir up the situation and said, "Childe wants to pay six hundred taels of silver to buy my ginseng, which is naturally good, but can I see the money first?" Contemptible people are accustomed to handing over money with one hand and delivering goods with the other. ”

She was waiting for the shopkeeper to stop her, if the other party didn't keep her, it would be a big deal for her to go to Linzhen more often, and she could always find a suitable buyer.

However, she would rather make less money, after all, she still wants to settle here, and it is estimated that she will inevitably have to do business in this pharmacy, and she is also willing to let the store make a little profit.

If this man is really rich, it would be good to be able to buy the ginseng in her hand, but if he just came to make trouble, she wouldn't just let him go so lightly.

The shopkeeper also noticed that this man was dressed very plainly, but when this person walked in, his temperament was really extraordinary. The shopkeeper has long taught them that they must not look at people by their clothes alone. But this ginseng seller said so, she didn't speak, just stood in front of the medicine cabinet and watched the excitement.

Jiang Mengzhen took out the small cloth bag that Hao Cheng gave him, and took out a handful of gold leaves: "Take twelve gold leaves here, you have to go to the money village to exchange them, you can exchange them for six hundred taels of silver tickets." ”

One tael of gold in the Jin Dynasty could be exchanged for ten taels of silver, but this kind of gold leaf with exquisite workmanship and specific patterns was more valuable, and one piece could be worth five taels of gold.

Hao Cheng was a little more surprised when she saw his gaze, she knew very well that the things she put in that small cloth bag were only those dry food and water bladders and a clean handkerchief, where did this person get so much money.

She obviously forgot that Jiang Mengzhen still had clothes when she fell, and when she went out, just in case, the sleeves he wore were lined with gold and silver pockets. Silver tickets were easily soaked in water, so he kept a handful of gold leaves in his pocket, about thirty or forty pieces, worth nearly two thousand taels of silver.

When Hao Cheng gave him the burden, he gave him the clothes together, he thought that Hao Cheng drove him out because he saw the wealth, but he turned over the clothes and found that the belongings were still there, the pockets were sewn well, and the gold leaves were not lost.

Only then did he affirm that Hao Cheng was a good person, and he was a good object who could shelter him in the short term. When Hao Cheng left, he also asked others to go to the town where Hao Cheng came.

This gold leaf matter, she is not good to ask in front of outsiders, this person is willing to pay six hundred taels to buy, she is naturally happy: "Since this is the case......"

Hao Chengfang was about to speak, and the shopkeeper of the medicine shop said: "In this case, this lady will sell this mountain ginseng to our medicine shop, and we are willing to pay six hundred and ten taels of silver, and we will pay a silver ticket plus ten taels of silver." Doing business should be on a first-come, first-served basis, after all, you are talking to us first. ”

She also saw that the mountain ginseng was worth seven hundred taels of silver, and the medicine shop also had to make money, and the ginseng was picked and sent by this person, and it didn't take them any effort, and the aislemen also had a profit of ninety taels or even higher.

She naturally wants to earn this money, but now that her sincerity is out, it depends on whether Hao Cheng is willing to give the medicine shop this face.

Jiang Mengzhen wanted to say something, but Hao Cheng turned around, took out the mountain ginseng wrapped in red cloth, and put it on the cabinet in front of him: "Since the shopkeeper is so sincere, then I will naturally sell this mountain ginseng to the medicine shop."

The business was done in a hurry, Hao Cheng took the money and left.

The shopkeeper of the medicine shop smiled and said, "This ginseng is sold to Gongzi fifteen gold leaves, and Gongzi can buy it?"

She saw that the clothes on the waist and abdomen of this boy were dark, and he should have been injured before he begged for ginseng to make up for his body. Fifteen gold leaves are seven hundred taels, and her asking price is not high.

Jiang Mengzhen only glanced at her, and then brushed his sleeves away.

When the ginseng seller and the ginseng buyer were gone, the shopkeeper on the side said more: "You don't know how to slaughter him, he definitely doesn't want it, why do you ask such a question."

The shopkeeper tossed the abacus beads: "You don't understand this, if he is really lacking, don't say seven hundred taels, eight hundred taels he will come out." Even if he doesn't want it, he has to respond to him once, who let him delay our business and make us less money. ”

The shopkeeper is enlightened, and he looks like he is being taught. Over there, Jiang Mengzhen chased in a hurry, covering his abdomen and trotting all the way over.

Hao Cheng was in a hurry, after all, she still had a lot of things to buy after taking the money. At least go to one of the houses she had set her eye on and buy them from the tooth shop.

But this man followed so closely that she couldn't do business in front of him, so she stopped abruptly in a remote corner: "What are you doing with me?"

There is another reason why she stopped, the other party still has injuries on her body, and she walked in such a hurry that the wounds on her body are estimated to crack open to the touch. After all, it was a life she saved, and if he didn't know how to take care of his body, she would be angry, and she would waste all her energy in vain.

Jiang Mengzhen stood in front of her: "I just want to ask, can you take me in for a while, and I will pay for accommodation and food." It won't be delayed for a long time, and I will leave all the gold leaves that are not used up to my benefactor as a reward. ”

There is no extra money for adding a person, and the gold leaf is not a small amount, and Hao Cheng was a little moved for a while. However, she has no power and power, and she is most afraid of causing some big trouble, if she has money and has no life to spend, it is useless for her to ask for that money.

She wondered: "Since you have money, you can find a house by yourself, so much money, you can live in the best inn in this town for a few years, why live with me." ”

Jiang Mengzhen was sincere, and then sent Hao Cheng a good person card: "I don't have any documents to prove my identity, and it will take a while to contact my family." And I'm alone, it's inevitable that there will be some inconvenience outside, and my benefactor is a good person, so I naturally believe you. ”

She seems to be so kind and honest? But this person was obviously extremely protective of her at the beginning. Hao Cheng hesitated, and threw another difficult question to Jiang Mengzhen: "Then how are you going to explain your identity?" ”

"According to what the benefactor said before, my cousin from afar came to defect, and he was attacked by a thief halfway." Relatives defected, and it was clear that they couldn't live in the same room, so there would naturally be fewer gossips.

However, Hao Cheng is the only one in the family, and she has never been married, if she is in a place where no one knows, she can also be called a brother and sister, and it is inevitable that people will gossip in this Xinghua Village, and she naturally has more concerns.

She was obviously not very satisfied with the solution Jiang Mengzhen said, and she didn't covet him for money, but she didn't like to raise idlers: "You still have to find someone else, with so much money, you can always find a satisfactory guard." ”

"I'm useful!" Jiang Mengzhen said busily, he likes to get along with smart people, because the other party will not cause him trouble. It's just that this man is smart, and he is not as easy to fool as he thinks.

Hao Cheng raised his eyebrows: "What's the use of you?" "She can't cook, she doesn't seem to be doing well in housework, and she still has injuries on her body, so she has to take care of them. She took in such a person, but she just found a young master for herself to serve. She is not very used to being served, but she is not a maid character, so why should she find guilt for herself.

Jiang Mengzhen took a step forward and said, "I just helped my benefactor sell an extra one hundred and ten taels of silver, is this useful?" As for the chores that are not done well, I can spend money to find a few capable servants and servants for my benefactor. "If he doesn't make a move, then Hao Cheng will be able to sell the mountain ginseng for five hundred taels.

Hao Cheng was silent for a long time, and did not agree or refuse. The house was no longer seen, and Jiang Mengzhen followed behind her, following Hao Cheng all the way back to her house. However, before entering the courtyard gate, Hao Cheng blocked Jiang Mengzhen's entrance and locked the courtyard door. He gave the man a blank look, then turned and went into the back room.

Jiang Mengzhen stood at the gate of the fence with that little burden in his arms, looking at her back pitifully, but Hao Cheng was obviously not soft-hearted enough and never looked back once.
