Chapter 124: Outwitting the kidnappers
With the temptation of money, Zhang Dashan's mood is even more apprehensive, for money, the more the merrier, but money and fate are measured, it seems that it is not so important.
The money in mind is important, but for a big family like the Song family, it is not so unconcerned about money.
Zhang Dashan frowned, looking at Song Xinshu's eyes were extremely complicated, this kind of problem was really too difficult to choose.
"You take it lightly first, and kill the hostages, it's really not good for you." Su Qing said a little sternly, he really killed Xiao Mu, and Song Xinshu would not be driven crazy by this incident.
In desperation, Zhang Dashan could only relax the clamp on Xiao Mu, but Xiao Mu, who was short of oxygen, was softly restrained by Zhang Dashan, although his life would not be affected, but for Xiao Mu, it was really difficult to escape.
"Well, if you're worried that this situation will not be good for you, how about we give you two taels of silver to make sure you get out of the city safely? It's not easy to go out of the city and find you again, and we won't chase you down for these silver taels. Song Xin began to talk to him about the conditions.
Listening to Song Xinshu's conditions, Zhang Dashan felt that this method worked, if he could really go out of the city with money, the world was so big, why didn't there be a place to stay.
Thinking of this, Zhang Dashan looked at the two people in front of him hesitantly: "That's it, I don't want much, I want a thousand taels of silver, and it's worth it to buy a life with these money." ”
As soon as he heard this lion's big mouth, Song Xinshu was directly stunned, he could say that he could not collect such a lot of money if he sold it for a few small mus.
Song Xinshu looked at Zhang Dashan very distressed, and couldn't wait to give up like this, but now, if it doesn't happen, it can't be done, it's a life after all.
"One thousand taels is too much, in this way, if you have less, I will discuss it with the Song family, you can go as much as you want, it's too difficult for us to be useless." Song Xinshu discussed with Zhang Dashan, but this discussion could not solve anything.
Zhang Dashan looked at the dress of several people, and it really didn't look like the rich man, he thought about it again and again, and finally gritted his teeth very reluctantly: "In this way, in the end, I will give you another 200 taels cheaper, if you agree, then that's it, if you don't agree, this matter will not be discussed." ”
In order to allow Xiao Mu to escape from this clutches, Song Xinshu knew that he agreed to this matter, but the eight hundred taels of silver was really not a trivial matter.
On the way back, the two of them buried their heads in thinking, but in the end they didn't come up with a good result, Song Xinshu sat in the corner all day, thinking about what problems with his head down, Su Qing didn't affect her anything, at this time, let her be quiet.
Finally, when it was approaching the evening, Song Xinshu came up with a solution, which was not a solution, although there was not so much silver to buy Xiao Mu's life, but if it was to forge so much silver, it would not be a problem.
After all, Zhang Dashan is very afraid of the government, even if he is trying to escape for his life, he will not go to check the authenticity one by one.
Thinking of this, Song Xinshu could only use such a dangerous method to solve this problem.
"Husband, I thought of a way, but this method is more dangerous and I don't know if it can succeed, but maybe we really only have this one way." Song Xinshu sighed and sat silently on the edge of the bed.
Playing with it in her hand, her silver jewelry, in fact, to be honest, this silver is not pure silver, but it seems that there is almost no difference to ordinary outsiders.
"The new thing we produced by mixing aluminum with other metals is actually very similar to the texture of silver, and if it is really too late to check, it should be able to pass the test in confusion." Song Xinshu looked at Su Qing with bright eyes.
The two of them had an idea, and Su Qing immediately went outside to find some waste pots, kitchenware and other things, ready to try it.
After all the things were equipped, Song Xinshu found a wooden block, used a very thin carving knife, and coughed it out on it, in the shape of a silver ingot.
Song Xinshu started to talk about these things, placed them in the furnace, and looked at the things in the furnace, Song Xinshu began to pull the bellows one by one, making the fire in the furnace more and more intense.
Once these things have completely melted down, it's time to move on to the next step.
Song Xinshu carefully poured these things into the model just now, and when they slowly solidified, the preparations just now were all completed.
Su Qing watched Song Xinshu open the mold, except for some rough hair, the contents were almost the same as the silver ingot in front of him.
Looking at the way it was completed step by step now, Su Qingzhen felt very magical, and it made him feel a glimmer of light.
"Don't say that Zhang Dashan can't see this thing, even if I have witnessed the production process with my own eyes, I still don't believe it." Su Qing was very surprised, looking at Song Xin's happy appearance, he also felt very happy from the bottom of his heart.
I don't know when my own lady had this skill, but this can work with a fake and real way.
"Don't worry, there's one last step." Song Xinshu smiled and said to Su Qing, while picking up the frustration placed next to him and gently polishing the silver ingot just now.
The silver ingot that passed through Song Xin's hand was very realistic, and there was no difference between it and the real thing.
After making the first one, the two of them began to continue processing, and by the time the sky had become dark, Song Xinshu had already produced a lot of not very detailed blanks.
In this way, the two of them hurriedly finished the silver ingot, which was close to eight hundred taels.
Seeing that the three-day period was gradually approaching, Song Xinshu was a little flustered, she didn't know if it was right or wrong to do this, but Xiao Mu really needed this thing to save her life.
Just when Song Xinshu was about to give it a go, Su Qing walked into the room, and no one told him about this matter, not to prevent them from lusting for profit, but to prevent this matter from getting out of the way and letting Zhang Dashan kill people.
Early in the morning that day, Song Xinshu and Su Qing walked outside with a big box, and the people in the village were enjoying the shade outside, looking at the behavior of the two people, it felt very weird, but there were always a few people who couldn't bear it and asked a few of them.
"This box is so finely made, it shouldn't be cheap, right? What are you two doing here? One of the aunts asked, although it was a question, but the sentence was full of doubt.
How could Song Xinshu, who was not well-off, be willing to throw away such a good object, and looking at the heavy appearance, he knew at a glance what valuable treasures were inside.
"It's nothing, it's just a batch of waste sundries, and in desperation, I can only use this thing to hold it." Song Xinshu smiled calmly, and then walked away with Su Qing.
The two of them finally carried the big box to the outside of the thatched house, Su Qing stepped forward and knocked on the door, looking at the situation inside, Su Qing shook his head helplessly, Zhang Dashan even held on to the rope that tied Xiao Mu when he was resting.
"Don't sleep, we've got something for you." Su Qing looked reluctant, and he had to do enough work on the surface.
Zhang Dashan looked at a big box outside and was very surprised, but he had great doubts about the authenticity of the things inside.
"You bring the box in, then open the lid for me to see." Zhang Dashan asked very cautiously, and the two of them trembled and moved the box in, looking at the contents of the box, which was white and bright, but it was very tempting.
Song Xinshu watched Zhang Dashan holding Xiao Mu's rope, grabbed a handful, and bit it with his teeth to test its authenticity, but Song Xinshu was not a fool, in the most superficial place, she put some real silver.
"I suggest you find a carriage and leave with these things now, and when the others find out about it, there will be at least a transitional period." As soon as Song Xinshu finished speaking, Zhang Dashan threw away the rope, carried the box, and ran away into the distance.
When she looked at Xiao Mu, who was already frightened and overwhelmed, Song Xinshu was really distressed and had already cried, but this incident hit Xiao Mu really too hard, and she had to find a time to let Xiao Mu's mentality slowly adjust.
took Xiao Mu back home, Song Xinshu found that Xiao Mu had a very fresh scar on his neck, and he knew that he was injured by a sharp weapon at a glance.
As soon as a few people returned home, they saw people from the Song family surrounding Song Xinshu's house.
"You also said that you don't know Xiao Mu's whereabouts, who do you think is next to you?" Mrs. Song asked unforgivingly.
Song Xinshu pointed to Xiao Mu's neck, the wound on it was not faked at first glance, and Xiao Mu's state was also extremely bad.
"Her state is not good, I will let her raise her at home first, and then let her go back to Song's house." Song Xinshu only explained a little, and then took Xiao Mu inside.
Mrs. Song was still chasing after her and was about to go into the room, but she was stopped by Su Qing outside the door.
"Xiao Mu was kidnapped by others, and she just pulled it out of their hands and has not recovered more or less mentally, give her a period of time first, please go back." After Su Qing finished speaking very calmly, he turned around and went back to the room.
Mrs. Song stood outside the door, neither left nor stayed, and waited against the window in great surprise.
