Chapter Twenty-Four: Pretending to be confused

Tong has always been old and steady, and being able to make him happy to be like this shows that this trip has been very rewarding.

What the hell did you rob?

Wang Teng was curious, "You brought the treasure house outside Ding Yuan?" ”

Tong's eyebrows danced, "Although I didn't guess it, it's not far off."

"What the hell?"

"Eight hundred taels of silver, five hundred catties of salt"

Wang Teng took a breath of cold air, in the Ming Dynasty, the purchasing power of one tael of silver can be equivalent to three hundred yuan, that is to say, Tong has robbed more than 200,000 yuan on this trip.

What is this concept?

If Wangjiazhuang maintains its current population size, these 800 taels of silver can ensure that everyone has no worries about food and clothing for a year!

If you count the salt, the amount of money is doubled.

No wonder Ding Jiazhuang poured out of the nest, it seems that Ding Yuanwai is really anxious.

Wang Teng was in a very good mood, "It's really yours, by the way, what about the two spies?" ”

Huang Hu made a gesture to wipe his neck, and said in his mouth: "After they succeeded, they joined forces to try to coax us, but fortunately, Tong always found out early, otherwise, our brother would have folded inside."

Wang Teng frowned, he didn't expect such twists and turns.

The results are self-evident, the two spies in Dingjiazhuang must be dead, I just hope that Huang Hu and they have not revealed their flaws, otherwise, there will be endless troubles.

It doesn't sound wise to provoke a smuggler of salt, but Wang Teng didn't have a choice.

If Ding Yuanwai was not so aggressive, how could Wang Teng take risks?

On the one hand, the news is strictly controlled to prevent idle people from inadvertently leaking the news; On the other hand, it is to prepare for a rainy day, although it is good to start with Dingjiazhuang at any time.

Paper can't contain the fire, Ding Yuanwai is a treacherous and slippery, and sooner or later he will learn the truth.

Thinking of this, Wang Teng said in a low voice: "Tell the brothers, you must keep your mouth shut, and don't reveal your whereabouts tonight to anyone, not even the people in the village."

Huang Hu patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, whoever dares to talk nonsense, I will definitely knock him over!" ”

Wang Teng was noncommittal, and said, "Where is the silver?" ”

Huang Hu and Tong Cheng handed out a wooden box and said, "It's all inside."

"In any case, this silver was snatched out by the efforts of the brothers, and my Wang Teng is not a harsh person, five taels of silver per person, remember, you must not say much"

Huang Hu bared his teeth and smiled, and said, "My share will be put here, Zhuangzi will eat and drink, and it will be useless if I want it."

Tong has always expressed a similar opinion: "That's right, there are 100 young and strong people in Zhuangzi, and it is impossible to do it without money, and I don't want it, Brother Wang, you can just look at it."

The two people with the best martial arts and the best archery skills have shown their demeanor, and who of the rest of the border people is embarrassed to take money?

This is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing.

If the border people have no harvest because of this trip, they will have a slack mentality, it will be a trouble that cannot be exchanged for silver.

It's just fifty taels of silver, Wang Teng doesn't want to lose a big one because of a small one, "Although the silver is Zhuangzi, but everyone has indeed made meritorious contributions, if you don't take the silver, wouldn't it mean that I don't know the reward and punishment?" ”

Huang Hu wanted to say more, but Tong always came to his senses and understood what Wang Teng meant, "Okay, since Brother Wang has said this, brothers, take the money!" ”

Huang Hu looked at Tong Yiyi, then at Wang Teng, muttered a sentence in his mouth, and reached out to take out a silver piece of five taels.

Tong always did the same, and also took the silver.

With an example, the border dwellers were quickly rewarded.

The silver is only a dead thing in the treasury, but when the silver is sent out, it can have a motivating effect on everyone, and at this time, the silver is alive.

robbed such a large amount of money, if Wang Teng did not pull out a dime, everyone would definitely be unhappy.

Now, Wang Teng has turned everyone into vested interests with fifty taels of silver.

tasted the sweetness, as long as Wang Teng didn't do anything stupid, the group would definitely continue to support him.

The silver was successfully disposed of, and at this time, suddenly a Zhuang Ding came to report: dozens of torches appeared outside the village.

Wang Teng understood that eighty percent of the people from Dingjiazhuang came.

As soon as the money was divided, the bitter lord came to the door, and if this was not handled well, it would be a great disaster.

A few young men were already a little flustered, and they didn't know what they were experiencing.

However, Wang Teng was very calm, "Hide the silver, don't panic, don't mess up, they shouldn't have grabbed the handle, otherwise, it will be the people from the government who come."

Blacksmith Zhang thought so, "The owner of the village is right, everyone just needs to pretend to know nothing."

Huang Hu grinned: "Cheng, pretend to be confused, it's simple!" ”

Wang Teng bowed slightly, "Come with me, let's meet these guys."

"Okay"

At this time, the people of Dingjiazhuang had come to the outside of the village, they were very arrogant, and they had the appearance of breaking in directly, however, the young men of Wangjiazhuang who appeared at the entrance of the village stopped them, and the two sides were deadlocked, and a fire was inevitable.

At the last moment, Wang Teng appeared, "Who is outside the village?" If you don't tell you, is it a strong man? ”

A steward of Dingjiazhuang was furious: "What a clever mouth, obviously you killed people and broke into my Dingjiazhuang, and now you are pretending to be garlic, which is really ridiculous in the world."

Wang Teng pretended to be puzzled: "What kind of murder and silence?" Breaking into Dingjiazhuang? What the hell are you talking about? How can we, a good people, commit robbers? If something happens in your village, you should report it to the official."

"Wang Teng, my family member said that as long as you hand over the murderer and hand over what you gain, he will not be guilty of the past."

The person who came still did not give up, and seemed to recognize Wang Teng as the murderer.

Wang Teng was a little relieved, the people of Dingjiazhuang were deceiving him!

Something big happened in Dingjiazhuang, and Wangjiazhuang, which was close at hand, was naturally very suspicious.

If you can't find the murderer, it's reasonable to come and bluff.

It's great to be able to get the truth, and even if you can't, things won't get worse.

The more this time, the calmer Wang Teng became.

If the other party really has evidence, how can they be so amiable?

Only move your mouth and don't use your hands, this is not the consistent style of Dingjiazhuang.

Now that he understands the other party's intention, where will Wang Teng be afraid?

"If Ding Yuanwai is framing the idea, I'm afraid that he will make a mistake, you know, I will wait to go back to Zhuang to rest, and I will get the permission of Lord Wei."

Lord Wei?

How many Wei people are there in Guangling County?

How did this damn Wang Teng have a relationship with Lord Wei?

The steward of Dingjiazhuang was a little stunned, and then he realized that Wangjiazhuang was far from being as simple as it appeared on the surface.
