The problem of grain tax was solved, and the tense expressions of the villagers in Lausanne were relaxed, this year's disaster, there was almost no harvest in the field, and the word tax was like a heavy mountain pressing on the hearts of every villager, and now they no longer have to be anxious, and a villager immediately broke away from the crowd and rushed back to the village to report the good news.

Coming to pay taxes is a matter for Linbian Village, and when the matter is solved, it is time for Liu Xiu to solve his own problems.

and Luosang and their group of villagers left the courtyard, just as a group of people in front of them came excitedly and nervously, led by a young man in black, followed by more than a dozen sword-wielding guards.

Liu Xiu just glanced at it slightly, and the two sides passed by.

Coming back to the noisy street, Liu Xiu thought about it and looked at Lausanne and said, "Big brothers, please do me a favor next......

Before Liu Xiu finished speaking, Luo Shan immediately interrupted Liu Xiu and patted his chest and said: "Your nobleman, don't say that, but if you have an order, even if you say it, we will definitely not shirk the slightest if we can."

When he came, the old village chief gave a solemn order to try his best to meet all of Liu Xiu's requirements, and they took this warning to Luoshan in their hearts.

Seeing this, Liu Xiu simply said bluntly: "I'm going to buy some things, but I don't have money, I originally wanted to sell the salt I brought and buy things, but now I have changed my mind, please help the big brothers, and bring some salt to exchange for what I want!" ”

Liu Xiu brought dozens of catties of snow-white salt, and at first planned to exchange it for money before buying others, but after observing in the town before, he found that the salt sold in many salt shops was not as good as the one he brought, it was in blocks, there were many impurities, and there was a peculiar smell, so he changed his attention.

The sudden appearance of dozens of catties of snow-white table salt, which is not available on the market, will definitely cause trouble, and it is Liu Xiu's simple barter to reduce the influence, which may still attract attention, but it will undoubtedly have a much smaller impact than selling it all.

"Eun Gong wants to change something, even though the order is," Lausanne was the first to say.

After thinking about it, Liu Xiu said: "Actually, it's not a big thing, but it's just some ordinary tools, knives, axes, hoes and the like, and the seeds of ordinary crops also need some, by the way, it's best to change a set of carpenter's tools, well, needles, threads, brains, cloths and the like also need some......"

After Liu Xiu finished speaking, dozens of villagers were summed up, which was not a problem at all, so Liu Xiu gave them dozens of salt that he brought, and they quickly dispersed.

In fact, Liu Xiu wants to change some books from this world, but he can't read, so he can only give up for the time being.

When Liu Xiu instructed the villagers to help him change things, in the courtyard where the Tian family collected taxes, the black-clothed young man who passed by Liu Xiu came here and couldn't hide his excitement and asked loudly: "Where is the silver thread grass?" I heard I got a silverthread? Where is it? Quick, show it to me! ”

"Young master, don't worry, the silver thread grass is here" The old man in gray who used the silver thread grass to deduct taxes immediately stepped forward to present the silver thread grass.

In such a short time, he had actually prepared a delicate wooden box to hold the silver thread grass.

grabbed the box and opened it, and the young man in black looked at it over and over, the more he looked at it, the more excited he became, and he was so happy that his mouth almost grinned to the root of his ears.

"It's indeed silver-threaded grass, it's indeed silver-threaded grass, that's right, it's great, haha, I didn't expect to get a silver-threaded grass, young master, my dream will soon come true!"

Excited and muttering to himself, the young man put the silver thread grass in his arms and patted the baby, and then looked up and asked the old man in gray: "By the way, what about the person who uses the silver thread grass to deduct taxes?" Where, show me"

The people around were stunned, they had patronized the nervous silver thread grass before, and they didn't even know when Liu Xiu and the others left.

"Well, this, young master, they seem to be gone," the old man in gray said embarrassedly.

The young man was speechless, looked at the other party and said, "Old Zhao, you are dozens of years old, why did you ignore these details, in case they still have silver thread grass, wouldn't they miss it?"

"The young master has taught him a lesson, but they shouldn't have gone far yet, why don't I let someone look for them?" The old man in gray said with a smile.

Needless to say, most of the guards around him suddenly left......

The villagers took salt to help Liu Xiu change things, but Liu Xiu was not idle, he had more important things to do, that is, to exchange the ink leopard skin for money.

Although the fierce beast of the black leopard is just Liu Xiu's punch to death, but for ordinary people, it is the existence of talking about the color change, and there is no need to deliberately look for a place to acquire, Lausanne and Luoshan, who have not left, found two bamboo poles to prop up, and the black leopard skin that is larger than a wall is the best advertisement.

As soon as the black and shiny black leopard skin appeared, it immediately caused a sensation, and after a while, Liu Xiu and the others were surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside, and people pointed and discussed with each other with amazement.

"God, this is a black leopard skin, it's still complete, it's the first time I've seen it!"

"I can't imagine how ferocious the Ink Leopard was when it was alive, just looking at this skin made me almost pee"

"The skin of the ink leopard is here, then the black leopard must have been killed, I don't know how much life it cost!"

"What if it's a trap?"

"What trap can kill a panther? You get me one to try! ”

“……”

People just watched and discussed, but no one asked about the price.

Liu Xiu is not in a hurry, where would ordinary people buy the skin of the black leopard, what he wants is the big dogs attracted after the news spread.

The big dog didn't attract it, but the black-clothed young man who had been glimpsed before came with a group of people.

"Young Master Tian is here!"

I don't know who snorted, the crowd dispersed automatically, and the boy came to the center with more than a dozen guards.

"Young Master, it's the silver thread grass they brought...... Forehead......! A black-clothed guard who had seen Liu Xiu and them spoke, but before he finished speaking, his eyes widened when he looked at the open ink leopard skin, and he subconsciously gasped.

Not to mention him, even the young man in black only had the black leopard skin in front of him in his eyes at this time.

His heart twitched, the young man took a deep breath, finally withdrew his gaze, looked at Liu Xiu, who was looking at him opposite, and asked, "This black leopard skin is also yours?" ”

Liu Xiu looked at the young man in black, he looked seventeen or eighteen years old, with clear eyebrows and shrewd eyes, and said in his heart that this was the second time they met, and someone shouted Young Master Tian before, thinking that he should be an important member of the Tian family in Qingliu Town.

Hearing the other party's words, Liu Xiu nodded and admitted that the ink leopard skin was his own.

The young man got Liu Xiu's affirmative answer, and his eyes lit up and said, "Sell?" Make an offer! ”

He seems to have forgotten the real purpose of coming to Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu was caught off guard, he didn't expect the other party to be so simple, and he suddenly made a difficulty, what price is appropriate? After all, Liu Xiu knows too little about the prices in this world.

So I had to ask Luoshan: "What is the right price?" ”

Luo Shan scratched his head, he had never sold a black leopard skin, he was entangled for a moment, suddenly thought of something, and whispered: "Nobleman, I don't know how much the price of the black leopard skin is appropriate, but I will tell you something for your reference, I heard my father say that a black leopard skin was sold in our village a few decades ago, which was exchanged for dozens of lives, and the skin was still in tatters at that time, but it was also sold for thirteen gold, although I don't know what thirteen gold is, but you can bid according to this"

Liu Xiu heard Lausanne say this thing, and when she heard it again at this time, she suddenly had a score in her heart.

So he looked at the young man in front of him and stretched out two fingers and said, "Twenty gold!" ”

The leopard skin is very precious, and the tattered ones can be sold for thirteen gold, and the ones they bring are complete, and there is no reason why they are not worth twenty gold.

Hearing Liu Xiu's offer, the corners of the black-clothed young man's mouth twitched, seeing that Liu Xiu was obviously dressed as a countryman, he originally wanted to say something, but suddenly noticed that another group of people appeared on the side and looked at it for a long time, and suddenly changed his words: "Deal, twenty gold is twenty gold, but I don't have so much money on me now, can you wait a little and let my subordinates go down and get the money?" ”

Liu Xiu suspected that the price he quoted was low, but there was no reason to take it back after the words had been exported, so he nodded and said, "Okay"

The deal was reached, and the other party did not give money Liu Xiu did not give the ink leopard skin to the other party, but he put it away.

At this moment, the black-clothed young man breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the group of people he noticed on the side, especially one of the blue-clothed young men and said with a smile: "Brother Zhou, I'm sorry, I bought the ink leopard skin"

A trace of unwillingness flashed in the young man's eyes, but he also shrugged his shoulders and said: "You talked to him about the deal first, since you want me to say nothing, let's go first, I have time to come to my house to play."

After speaking, the young man glanced at Liu Xiu thoughtfully, nodded slightly and led the people away.

Twenty gold is definitely not a small amount, Liu Xiu secretly wondered in his heart which one of the silver thread grass and this chapter of ink leopard skin was more valuable.

When waiting for his subordinates to bring the money, the young man in black took the initiative to come to Liu Xiu's side and looked up and down: "My name is Tian Lin, may I ask what my brother is called?" ”

"Liu Xiu" Liu Xiu nodded with a smile, curious that this guy didn't have a flying robbery, and Liu Xiu guessed that the leopard skin might cause some trouble.

The ink leopard skin is his, and the silver thread grass is different, the silver thread grass is not his own, how to deal with the old village chief has already made a decision that he is not good to interfere too much, if it is because of the ink leopard skin to cause trouble, he will first support Lausanne and solve it by themselves, now it seems that everyone should be happy.

Hearing Liu Xiu's name, Tian Lin nodded, and asked curiously, "How did you get the black leopard skin?" ”

"I said I was lucky, I happened to meet a black leopard that drowned and picked it up, do you believe it?" Liu Xiu shrugged and said.

Tian Lin pursed his lips and said: "It's about the same, you don't have the ability to kill the ink leopard, and the skin of the ink leopard is intact, I believe that you picked it up even more."

In this regard, Liu Xiu did not brag about the fact that he knocked over the ink leopard with one punch.

Then Tian Lin looked at Liu Xiu with great interest and asked, "You also brought the silver thread grass?" Anything else good? ”

"No, where are there so many good things in the world?" Liu Xiu spread his hands.

Tian Lin nodded, I don't know if he really believed it, anyway, he said: "Also, where is there such a good thing in the world, again and again, there is no time and again, tell me, where did you get the silver thread grass and the ink leopard skin?" I'll try my luck when I have time."

"On the side of the cliff of life and death, I picked up a drowned ink leopard and picked a silver thread grass, we went to more than fifty people, and in the end, only two of them got out alive, do you really want to try your luck?" Liu Xiu looked at him strangely and said, what he said was half-true.

Hearing this, Tian Lin and the people around him gasped.

"The cliff of life and death, forget it, no matter how many lives you have, it's not enough to fill it, I still won't send it to death," he sighed with a thumbs up at Liu Xiu.

After a short exchange, Liu Xiu was a little surprised in his heart, this field has so many guards, and he doesn't have a flying posture at all at a young age, is it possible that the tutor is so good?

This made Liu Xiu a little impressed, after all, he was the kind of person who was 'easy to bully'.

As he spoke, two more men in black quickly came here and handed a rattling cloth bag to Tian Lin.

opened it and glanced at it, the corners of his mouth hooked, although Tian Lin was a little painful, he still threw the bag to Liu Xiu and said, "Twenty gold, you can take a look"

After receiving the bag, Liu Xiu poured out the contents and presented the golden coins in his hand.

"Tsk, this deal probably can't be reached," Liu Xiu put the gold coins back in the bag and threw them away, looked at Tian Lin and said.

Tian Lin laughed, and by the way, he slapped the head of the guard who brought the gold coins, pointed at Liu Xiu and said, "Hurry up, take it out, I really think that everyone in the countryside doesn't know how to count."

The guard smiled awkwardly and had to take out three gold coins from his bosom and throw them to Liu Xiu.

Damn, I really bullied the countrymen who didn't know how to count, three of the twenty gold coins were blackened, this is still my own personal experience, I don't know how miserable the ordinary countrymen have to be pitted?

Liu Xiu didn't know how much three gold coins were worth, and he didn't believe it if he wanted to say that a guard dared to be greedy so much Liu Xiu killed, but it was pointless to pursue so much at this time.

After getting twenty gold coins, the deal was reached, and the skin of the ink leopard was naturally handed over to Tian Lin.

After he got the things, he waved at Liu Xiu and said, "You have helped me a lot, but I have to go first, if there are good things next time, come to me directly, I will definitely not lose you, after all, you know how to count, haha, I can't lose you ......"

Tian Lin led people away, Liu Xiu threw away the money bag, and said in his heart that it was interesting.

That guy doesn't look young, but he has a lot of eyes.

"Young master, twenty gold coins, just handed it over to him? That's equivalent to nearly one-fifth of our Tian family's income a year, if you don't find two people to watch, you can ...... when the time comes" After leaving, a fierce light flashed in the eyes of a guard beside Tian Lin and said coldly.

"Are you a pig?" Tian Lin looked coldly at the proposed guard and said disdainfully.

The guard was stunned for a moment, not knowing where he had said the wrong thing.

Shaking his head, Tian Lin pouted and said: "Silver thread grass, ink leopard skin, appeared in the hands of a person at the same time, do you think this is really a coincidence and luck?" Think about it with your pig brain, although twenty gold coins are distressing, but the ink leopard skin and silver thread grass can really help a lot, so let's inquire about their origin and details first, don't take it upon yourself to startle the snake, you know? ”

"Subordinate understood," the guard nodded.

didn't care whether his subordinates really understood or not, Tian Lin eagerly took the leopard skin and silver thread grass home, although he was the eldest young master in the family, plus he was smart and steady, and he could make decisions about many things, but how to use these two things to achieve his goals had to be discussed with the elders in the family......
