Chapter 10 The poor eat dirt and go hunting
After eating big fish and meat in the inn for four or five days, he was suddenly reduced to only drinking porridge.
This psychological gap is definitely not something that ordinary people can bear, at least Li Xie said that he can't accept it.
So after drinking two large bowls of porridge in a row, and still feeling empty in his stomach, Li Xie felt that he should make some money.
Li Xie thinks that the money of people in this world should be very easy to earn, but Li Xie has no principal now. So it's impossible to make any serious money at all, and the only ones you can go are those crooked ways.
Crooked ways......
It has to be a quick money......
No cost......
Li Xie racked his brains, thought about it, and finally came up with one - a lottery.
If you want to make money with this kind of play, you have to cheat. Because Li Xie himself has no capital, if someone is lucky, the first or two people will draw the award.
Li Xie has no money to pay to others at all, so if he wants to ensure that he can continue to play, Li Xie must ensure that no one draws the prize in the early stage.
If you want to have this effect, you can only cheat, Li Xie doesn't think he is a good person, but he will never do this kind of thing that violates his conscience.
"The money is fast, and it's really a means of killing people, forget it, who called me a good person? Let's go out for a walk. ”
Li Xie found that he couldn't think of it out of thin air, so he got up and went to walk around the street, everything had to start from the roots, starting from the grassroots!
Li Xie's residence is close to the Hanlin Academy, and the Hanlin Academy is in the west of Luotianfu, so the closest to Li Xie should be the West Market, Li Xie went all the way to the west, and sure enough, he entered the downtown after a while.
While walking in the market, Li Xie looked enviously at the roadside from time to time, a letter writing and reading stall, and a painting stall selling paintings.
What this thing sells is pure knowledge, and it can be regarded as one of the non-capital transactions. But alas, Li Xie knows that although he can be regarded as a reader, he is not familiar with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
The calligraphy that was written, even more because I had not practiced, was written like a dog scratching. Not to mention taking out such words to write letters for others, even he can't read it himself.
After shopping around the bazaar, Li Xie didn't find a way to make money that suited him. There are a lot of ways to make money, but these ways either require a certain amount of capital to operate.
Or simply rely on fooling people to win by cheating, and Li Xie disdains this.
After a day of shopping, Li Xie decided to go back to his father's old business. It's more practical to simply go out of the city and go to the mountains to hunt some prey.
I drank another meal of white porridge in the evening, and I was already hungry in the middle of the night. Li Xie was so hungry that he drank white porridge again in the middle of the night.
He felt that it was not a problem to go on like this, so when it was just dawn, Li Xie set off with the firewood knife in the kitchen.
Then he waited until he got out of the city gate to find that he didn't know where to hunt outside the bustling city.
Helpless, Li Xie could only talk about the relationship at the city gate, inquire about the soldiers watching the city gate, and clearly understand the range of hunting around the city.
The sun had already risen three feet high, and Li Xie was even more helpless to find that he was hungry again. Only then did he deeply understand what it meant to eat Lao Tzu to death.
The vicinity of Luotianfu is not as good as the East Desert Road, and the bear blind man here is estimated to be unable to find it, but there must be a tiger or something.
And Li Xie's goal is to hunt a tiger, he thinks that as long as he can hunt a tiger, it should be enough for him to eat beautifully for two months.
Because according to the market I heard yesterday, as long as the size of the tiger is close to that of an adult, it can be sold for ten taels of silver.
In Luotian Mansion, ordinary people live for a month, and they only have a little more than one or two silvers when they add it. Ten taels of silver is definitely enough for Li Xie to eat and drink for a month.
Li Gui once said to Li Xie that as long as you are careful enough, you will be a good hunter by nature.
This "you" refers to all the whole group of people who possess "qi". There is no doubt that the presence of "qi" can make you more agile, stronger, more stamina, better eyesight, and stronger hearing.
When you have these, you already have the ability to compete with your prey, plus the human brain is naturally smarter than the beast.
So when a person has "qi", he is a natural hunter. Hunting is no longer a dangerous thing in their eyes, but an unusually simple and narrow thing.
Li Xie flew quickly in the mountains and forests, and Li Xie didn't even bother to care about those who were small.
His goal was only those large, hunting enough prey for him to eat for half a month.
After running at such a fast pace for nearly twenty minutes, Li Xie suddenly heard a cry for help in front of him.
Li Xie was a little strange, except for himself, a poor ghost with a clanging sound, who else would come to this place where birds don't so early in the morning?
But in the spirit of humanitarianism, since people asked for help and he heard it again, Li Xie still followed the voice to find it......
Li Baichuan was also unlucky, it was rare for Hanlin Academy to have a day off, and he and his two fox friends and dogs, Guo Zhibo and Lan Tianzhi, made an appointment to go out hunting early.
But I didn't want to come out too early, and when I entered the hunting garden, the sky was not yet bright, but Li Baichuan, who had a good face, reluctantly entered for the sake of face.
But I didn't want to enter the mountains and forests in such a dark day, and I didn't know what was wrong when I couldn't see clearly, and the horses were frightened, and the panicked horses panicked and ran with their heads down.
When he encountered this tiger, Li Baichuan finally knew that he had walked out of the hunting garden and into the wilderness.
Although the horse under Li Baichuan's crotch is excellent, it is not a peerless horse. At the moment of encountering the tiger, they were already frightened again, and they didn't even run, they were so frightened that their legs were weak, and they lay there and didn't move.
Li Baichuan took advantage of the tiger to bite the horse that scared the weak legs, and fled to the tree, originally thinking that the tiger would leave after eating the horse and having eaten enough.
But it did not want to bite the horse, but instead of leaving, it lingered under his feet, and raised its head to face him with a loud roar.
Li Baichuan, who was originally not very bold and trembled with fright, was so frightened by a tiger roar that his feet trembled, and he who was originally standing on the branch immediately fell.
Although Pan grabbed the branch in time, the man had already fallen, and because he was frightened, his whole body was weak, and he had no strength at all, so he folded his hanging body to the tree.
When Li Xie arrived here, he found that the man who shouted for help was hanging on the tree and swaying from side to side like a wind chime, avoiding the tiger's jumping bite.
And not far from the tree, there was a horse, whose neck had been bitten off, and died there.
It seems that he came out early in the morning to hunt and play, but unfortunately he ran into Li Xie's prey, the tiger.
