Chapter Seventy-One: Two Ingots
Lao Rao knocked on the door of the village chief's house in the rain and wore a robe, carrying a bright gold ingot in his arms.
"Old Raotou, hurry up, come in!" The village chief was overjoyed when he saw that it was Lao Raotou's embarrassed face, and hurriedly let Lao Rao come in.
The village chief pulled Lao Rao Tou into the side room, closed the door and beckoned Lao Rao Tou to sit down.
"Village Chief, what's going on?" Lao Rao came to ask the village chief for ideas, and when he saw that the village chief was also embarrassed, he asked.
The village chief sighed, hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Alas, look at this. As he spoke, he took out a gold ingot from his arms and put it on the rough tabletop, and his black fingers couldn't help but tremble, I don't know if he was reluctant or afraid of something.
When Lao Rao saw it, he quickly took out the gold ingots from his arms.
"What's ......" The village chief looked at the gold ingots and looked up and asked Lao Raotou, and saw that Lao Raotou was also distressed, so he realized something.
lowered his voice and leaned over and asked cautiously with Lao Rao's head: "This is also the one who sent it yesterday?" ”
Lao Rao nodded, his face was a little tangled, "There are some other things, even if the others are forgotten, just let that person feel at ease, but this gold ingot is not daring to ask for it no matter what." "Where have they, the countrymen, seen such a big gold ingot, naturally they don't dare to ask for it. Only then did I consult with the village chief.
The village chief sighed, he also thought the same, but just to stay for a few days, this gold ingots is nothing to Wuchen, but for them these people, it is a hot fortune, and they can't and dare not ask for it.
"You wait for me, I'll go and put on the robe, and we'll go and send them back this gold ingot." The village chief stood up as he spoke, picked up the gold ingots and put them in his arms, Lao Rao nodded when he saw this, and quickly hid the gold ingots. It's really hot for them to hold this thing, so it's better to return it.
As smart as Wuchen, how can he not know that this gold ingots are a hot potato with them, but he still insists on sending them with seven words and nine senses, and the deep meaning is naturally self-evident.
Fifth Chen and Meng Shaoguang looked at the two people from far and near who stood up, and went out one after the other to stand under the eaves.
The village chief and Lao Rao didn't have the kung fu of seven words, and their feet were muddy when they came, although they were wearing a coat, and their trouser legs were mostly wet, and the weather in October was very cold, and it was raining, and their faces were a little blue, and they shivered a few times when they stopped.
"Village chief, old man, let's talk about it first." Fifth Chen turned sideways and invited the two of them in.
The village chief and Lao Rao raised their heads and feet to go in, and when they saw that it was cleanly cared for, the chairs were covered with furs that looked extremely valuable, and the feet that stuck in were stunned and retreated.
Wu Chen smiled slightly when he saw this, he was a businessman, and he was used to seeing the deception in the shopping mall, but he still had a good impression of simple people, although this was a person from the Western Dynasty.
"It's okay, just clean it later, there's a stove inside, just warm it up. Otherwise, I'm going to get sick. ”
The village chief and Lao Rao Tou hesitated for a moment when they heard that they were going to be sick, but they still stepped in, they had no doctor in this village, and they had to go to the town to invite them when they were sick, which cost money and trouble. I don't care so much.
Wuchen went in and invited them to sit down, personally made two cups of tea and handed them to the village chief and Lao Raotou. is also the set of butterfly jade porcelain used by him and Meng Shaoguang.
Seeing that the two of them were a little restrained, Wu Chen didn't care at all, but the smile on his face deepened a little, and it was a little more real.
"Is there something wrong with the village chief and the old gentleman coming here in the rain?"
