I don't know if it's too high, but the magistrate actually changed his mind and said that he would fight for some more silver money for Meng Zhen as a reward.

Meng Hao was slightly surprised, she thought about it for a while, and finally chose to refuse the kindness of the county magistrate.

As far as she knew, the new dynasty was in ruins and the treasury was empty, so the soldiers' salaries were generally very meager.

After hearing the news by chance, not to mention more silver, she didn't even want to take all the money that the prefectural magistrate had promised her before.

“... What my master and I captured and killed, we were all together before we went down the mountain, and you and General Qi can calculate the reward for us according to that number. As for those caught or killed by others, the bounty should belong to them. ”

She and Hao Mengyun did not touch the two bandit leaders who had the most silver, but only captured or killed more than forty ordinary bandits.

With these more than 40 people to exchange for silver, Meng Hao and Hao Mengyun are not busy in vain today.

As for the part of the bounty represented by the other bandits, Meng Hao had already decided not to stretch out his hand again.

The county magistrate was moved and was impressed by Meng Hao.

He didn't expect that this girl, who loved money so much in his eyes, would be able to give up such a large sum of money at this time to supplement those ordinary soldiers.

The county magistrate, who had a surplus of money, immediately decided that he would pay out of his own pocket and make up a few hundred taels of silver for her, so that she could at least scrape together a thousand taels to buy Zhuangzi.

He remembered how short of money this girl was.

Since a teenage girl can put herself in the shoes of those ordinary soldiers when she is short of money, shouldn't he, a county parent who is about to break his promise and gain weight, privately subsidize a little money for other girls?

The county magistrate, who was so bold, made a decision so happily and secretly.

***

Early the next morning, Hao Mengyun and Meng Zhen, who had been busy for a day and a night, were personally sent out of the back door of the county government by one of the masters of the county order.

The master seemed to be abandoning some hot potato, and as soon as he got out of the county office, he immediately stuffed the strange-shaped silver horn that forced him to have repeated obsessive-compulsive episodes back into Meng Hao's hand.

Meng Zhen: ...... As for such a disgusting face? Isn't it just a bit of a strange shape? If you don't hunt for curiosity, wouldn't it be dangerous if you were imitated by others?

Picking the silver horn in her hand, Meng Hao only used force, and the strange-shaped "token" was pinched into a round and flat circle by her.

She pulled one of Hao Mengyun's arms, "Let's go, we should go home." ”

With a small stack of silver tickets and a promise from the county order, the two left the alley where the back door of the county government was located.

On the way back to Hao Mengyun's house, Meng Hao bought a lot of things.

Chicken, duck, fish, tofu, eggs, rice, flour, oil, salt, cloth, needlework... But whatever she saw, she basically bought some.

Fortunately, she had the foresight to take everything home without thinking about it, but made an appointment with each store for their men to deliver it to her door.

When she and Hao Mengyun finally stepped into the house, Yan Zhenwu, Su Shen, and Meng Qi had already had breakfast and were ready to start doing their own things.

Seeing his sister, little Meng Qi was like a small cannonball, shouting "Sister" while flying into Meng Zhen's arms.

Yan Zhenwu was eyes completely glued to Hao Mengyun, and the intense and affectionate feeling between the two made Su Shen couldn't help but take two steps away silently.

"Done? You're not hurt, are you? ”

"Nope." Meng Hao smiled brightly at Su Shen, who was looking at her without a trace, "I'm worried about you." ”

Su Shen touched his nose, "It's okay for you guys to be fine." ”

Meng Hao took out the silver ticket from his sleeve pocket, "Look, this is the reward that the county magistrate gave me and my master, a total of one thousand and twenty taels." ”

Su Shen: ...... Why is there still a whole thing, is the county magistrate too serious or too individual?

Meng Hao smiled like a cat that had stolen a fishy fish, "Four hundred and twenty taels is a silver reward, and the county order has added another six hundred taels to me and my master." He knew that I was short of money, so he paid out of his own pocket to supplement me and my master by 600 taels. ”

Su Shen suddenly had a good impression of the county magistrate.

He remembered that last time, the county magistrate also paid out of his own pocket and gave Meng Zhen an extra sum of silver, which was simply a realistic version of the God of Wealth grandfather.

"The prefectural commander is a good person!" Su Shen praised the county parents in a serious manner.

Meng Hao nodded again and again in agreement, "If you are so generous, you must be a good person." ”

Yan Zhenwu and Hao Mengyun: ...... Could it be that this is the legend, "if you have milk, you are a mother"?

"By the way, Uncle Yan, the Zhuangzi I asked you to keep an eye on last time, is there any news now?"

Yan Zhenwu bowed slightly, "I've already told you a few good Zhuangzi, and now I'm just waiting for you to bring the money." ”

Hearing this, Meng Hao hurriedly took out another five hundred and fifty taels of silver tickets, "This is the silver reward I got last time, except for the twenty taels of silver ingots that are not very convenient to carry around, I have brought all the remaining silver tickets." ”

She divided the more than 1,000 taels in her hand into two equal parts, and then handed one of them to her master, "Master, this is half of the reward that belongs to you." ”

Hao Mengyun didn't ask for it, "The more than three hundred taels you gave me last time, I restored them and left them in the box to fall into the dust." ”

Her so-called "last time" refers to the time when Meng Zhen came to her house to entrust little Meng Qi before she went to avenge her parents.

At that time, Meng Zhen gave her a lot of silver, so that in case something happened to her, Hao Mengyun could have a sum of money to buy an industry.

Otherwise, with Hao Mengyun's casual lifestyle of "only thinking of making money when he has no money at all", Meng Hao is really worried that his younger brother will have a meal in the future.

"That's what I paid for you and Ah Qi's daily expenses, and it's not the same thing as the silver bounty this time."

Hao Mengyun resolutely refused to accept it, "I'm just going to join in the fun, I've already made up the fun, I don't want the silver." ”

Meng Zhen was speechless.

Well, her master really knows her very well, and knows that she is not helping to suppress the bandits out of any righteousness, but just wants to put a windfall.

If it weren't for that, how could Hao Mengyun not accept this money? After all, no one would dislike money biting hands, would they?

But the problem is that Hao Mengyun also contributed in the end, and Meng Hao was embarrassed to spend all the silver herself.

"You don't have to be embarrassed. The more than 300 taels you gave me before, I know that you actually have the intention of entrusting Gu in it, and now you are still jumping around, you don't still want to dump Ah Qi to take care of me, right? ”

Hao Mengyun deliberately looked at his apprentice with suspicious eyes, and scared the naïve and ignorant little Meng Qi into tears.

His chubby hand hugged one of Meng Hao's thighs hard, "Sister~~~"
