Chapter 15: Receiving the Reward

Wu Ji is thin, skinny, up and down, with a few taels of meat, just like him, or Xiucai? Or is it a capable man who hunts such a giant bear? No matter how you look at it, a few officers looked incredulous.

"The real thing, it's like a fake!" Wu Ji's words were completely inconsistent with his physical condition, and they were categorical and unquestionable. The chest is straight, the head is high, and the confidence is a little more.

"I've seen Wu Xiucai!" A few errand servants came to their senses, had to believe it, and hurriedly saluted Wu Ji. Wu Ji is a showman, although he is white and has no official position, but his identity and status are there, and he doesn't dare to lose his manners.

"Excuse me!" Wu Ji picked up the shelf of the scholar, accepted it in a big way, and asked, "Go and talk about it, we want to see Master Zheng." ”

"Huh!" An errand officer smiled kindly, and said busily: "Lord Zheng is discussing with Orion, I want to go to your Wujiazhuang to hunt bears, you arrive at the right time, you don't have to go through, just follow me." ”

Wu Qing asked Ding Zhuang to carry the bear, Wu Ji couldn't carry it anymore this time, Wu Qing personally supported him, his head was held high, his chest was up, as if he was close to Wu Ji, as if it was his great glory.

Under the leadership of the errand officer, Wu Ji and the others came to the county office, and a few Ding Zhuang put the bear down.

An official came out of the county office, about thirty years old, with bright eyes and great energy. He wore a black gauze hat on his head, and his two hat wings kept swaying as he walked. Dressed in a green official robe, it is quite majestic.

"I've seen Master Zheng!" Wu Qing hurriedly stepped forward, knelt on the ground, and saluted the official.

"It turned out to be Uncle Wu!" This official is Zheng County Order, who hurriedly stepped forward and helped him up. The sleeves of the robe waved, and he dusted off the dust on Wu Qing's body easily, which was very kind.

Wu Qing's face was glorious, excited and indescribable, and his face was full of red. Zheng Xianling is a big official in his eyes, and it is already a great honor to be able to help him up, not to mention, he also dusted him off with his own hands.

"This official has no official pretenses, is cordial, and in modern parlance, belongs to the pro-people faction." Wu Ji saw it in his eyes and made a conclusion about this Zheng County Order, Wu Ji greatly appreciated his pro-people style and greatly increased his good impression of this Zheng County Order.

Dusting off an old man with his own hands, such an official, not to mention that it was rare in the Song Dynasty, even in the modern era that claims to put the people first, it is very rare.

"Wu Ji has seen Master Zheng." Wu Ji stepped forward and hugged his fists and saluted. He is a scholar, and he does not have to bow down. Besides, Wu Ji would not have made such a big gift.

"Wu Xiucai? Are you Wu Xiucai? Zheng Xianling looked at Wu Ji with a pair of bright eyes, and couldn't help but wonder: "It is rumored that your body is extremely weak, and it has not come to pass, it is even weaker than I imagined!" ”

This Wu Xiucai's poor body is as famous as his Xiucai's name, Wu Ji is very speechless: "There is Lord Lao's teeth." ”

"Hmm!" Zheng County Ling looked at Wu Ji, couldn't help but bow his head, and said approvingly: "The body is poor, as long as you make up for it, it's not difficult." Ago, Uncle Wu came to the county government and talked about the soldiers, presumably you taught him, right? It's good to learn! Able to speak, articulate, and eloquent. ”

"Master Zheng, do you know?" Wu Qing attributed this glory to himself at that time, and he enjoyed it very much. After going back, I was a little reluctant to go, so I compensated Wu Ji and gave me a small half bowl of mutton fat. As soon as he remembered the appreciation of Zheng County's order at that time, it was like floating in the clouds, fluttering, where could he think of it, in the end, Zheng County's order had already known the cause and effect.

"Huh! Uncle Wu is not a scholar, how can he be so knowledgeable? Except for your Wujiazhuang's talent training, there is no possibility. Zheng County's order broke through the critical point in one sentence.

"This, this ......" Wu Qing blushed with an old face, very embarrassed, speechless.

"Third uncle, don't take it to heart." Wu Ji relieved Wu Qing and diverted the topic: "Lord Zheng, this bear is the scourge of our Wujiazhuang, and now, it has been removed for me, and I am asked to verify it." ”

"Oh! Did you get rid of it? Zheng Xianling was a little unconvinced, looked at Wu Ji, and then looked at the bear, one big and one small, very disproportionate, Wu Ji is so weak, can he get rid of such a big bear?

Zheng County's order was followed by a few people, there were errand soldiers, and there were also honest croppers, rough skin, and Cangsang's face, which should be the hunters invited by Zheng County's order.

An older hunter stepped forward quickly, looked at the bear corpse, and couldn't help but inhale a cool breath: "Sizzle! Sizzle! ”

"Uncle Wu, what's the surprise?" A hint of surprise flashed in Zheng Xianling's eyes.

"Lord Zheng, look at this injury, it's not a knife wound, it's not a gunshot wound, it's not an arrow wound, it's ...... It is the wrath of heaven that punishes this bear to have such an injury! The hunter surnamed Wu stammered for a long time before he got to the point.

"Oh!" Zheng County's words aroused his interest, and he looked at what the hunter surnamed Wu pointed at, only to see that the bear's jaw was missing, and the boss had a wound. Such an injury, for the ancients, it was unseen and unheard of, Zheng Xianling opened his mouth wide, and it took a long time to squeeze out a sentence: "It's really the wrath of heaven!" ”

In their imagination, if it weren't for the anger of the bear and the punishment from heaven, how could there be such an injury?

"Lord Zheng, don't be surprised, this is caused by my bear hunting." Wu Ji knew that they didn't know what gunpowder was, and they didn't know what an explosion was, so he had to explain it to him.

"You caused? Impossible! How powerful is that? Zheng Xianling still didn't believe it, and slowly shook his head.

Wu Ji knew that if he didn't explain it to him, he didn't believe it, so he had to come one by one. As for the key points, such as the formula of gunpowder, I will not say anything, I will mention it in one sentence. Wu Ji was articulate and organized, and when he said them one by one, Zheng Xianling heard them and shouted: "Skillful!" Ingenuity! There is such a wonderful way in the world! ”

What Wu Ji said is far beyond their imagination, and it is full of reality, which makes people hear it as soon as they hear it. If there is no such thing, it will not be possible to make it up.

"Good! As soon as this bear is removed, Wujiazhuang will be fine. Zheng Xianling is not a person who drags mud and water, and immediately fulfills his promise: "Wu Xiucai, fifty thousand yuan, this is for you." Do you want money, or do you want silver? ”

This is to give Wu Ji a choice, for convenience. Fifty thousand coins is fifty thousand coins, and each one is three to four grams. Fifty thousand yuan, which is nearly two hundred catties, is enough to crush Wu Ji's small body. Wu Ji didn't think about it, so he chose to tattoo silver.

The advantage of silver tattooing is that it is light and easy to carry. The downside is that it's not very easy to use. In modern parlance, coins are small change, one by one, and easy to use. The silver tattoo is the whole money, and one or two is a thousand dollars, and there is a problem with using it.

Wu Ji is for ease of carrying, and as for use, that will be later.

asked the master to take the silver, and Zheng Xianling handed it over to Wu Ji with his own hands. Wu Ji took it, heavy, with a metallic texture, which made people feel extraordinarily comfortable.

Looking at the silver in his hand, Wu Ji's eyes lit up, with this silver, Wu Ji's life will improve, and his body and bones will improve. More importantly, Wu Ji had the capital to start an arms factory.

A glimpse of the whole leopard, Wu Ji knew from the war trauma in Conversion City that wars often occur in the north, and that is his stage. The arms factory is opened in the north, and he just fell into the pile of money, and it is not a problem for gold and silver.

Feeling the heaviness of the silver in his hand, although Wu Ji had a good attitude, he had to get excited and excited for a bright future!

Everything is ready, all you have to do is go to Xiongzhou to open an arms factory!

Zheng Xianling thought that Wu Ji had never seen so much silver, smiled slightly, and said, "Wu Xiucai, this bear is rare, it is very rare. If the bear's skin is intact, it can be sold for forty or fifty taels of silver. It's a pity that although your method of hunting bears is ingenious, it destroys the bear skin, and I will buy it for twenty-five taels of silver, are you willing to sell it? ”

"Ahh Bear or mine? Wu Ji originally thought that he received the bounty and the bear would return to the government.

"Huh! That's for sure! Zheng Xianling nodded and said, "The bear bile should not be small, I will buy it for another five taels of silver." As for bear meat, what you lack in your mountain village is meat, so divide it. ”

"What a good officer!" Wu Ji praised in his heart.

If Zheng County Ling is greedy, he can use the reason of paying a bounty to covet this bear, which is dozens of taels of silver. He didn't do it, but paid for it, which is definitely a good official. Moreover, the price he gave was very fair.

"That's good!" Wu Ji readily agreed.

"This is thirty taels of silver, you keep it." Zheng County ordered someone to take the silver and give it to Wu Ji.

Wu Ji took it, handed it to Wu Qing beside him, and said, "Third uncle, you will share this money with the people in Zhuangzi." ”

"Ji'er, this won't work! No way! Ji'er, you hunted this bear, and the money has to be yours! Wu Qing didn't answer.

"Third uncle, this bear harmed Zhuangzi, Wu Qiang was bitten to death, and the people in Zhuangzi were not less frightened. This bit of money is different, and when it is divided, there is not much. Well, that's enough for me. Wu Ji was busy explaining.

Zheng Xianling's eyes were shining, very bright, staring at Wu Ji, thoughtfully, very appreciative: "Uncle Wu, Wu Xiucai has this intention, don't shirk it." Wu Xiucai, the county government is lacking a master book. The master book manages the amount of money and food, and you need a person like you who is not greedy, are you willing to be the master bookkeeper? ”
