Chapter 19 Intentions
Walking on the street, Chen Che had a very complicated mood.
In troubled times, people are like mustard.
In this social environment, ordinary people are really struggling to survive.
After learning what happened to his uncle, he realized this truth more and more deeply.
But at the same time, it is precisely because of this complex social environment that the preciousness of certain feelings can be highlighted.
After coming to this world for more than a month, he has almost completely integrated into the family.
He could feel his mother's meticulous care for him, and he could also feel his uncle's protection for him.
If this troubled world is a rough sea, then their home is undoubtedly a small boat on the sea, and the fate of the three has long been tightly tied together.
"How should Uncle's matter be resolved?"
Chen Che sighed lightly.
After thinking about it, he could only think of one way.
That is to leave the city of stone fire and find a place to live again.
As for the other methods...... None of them can solve the problem at the root.
Because in this world, once a person is labeled with a certain label, it is difficult to wash it off.
"When I'm stronger, I'll get out of here."
Chen Che made a decision silently.
This Stone Fire City is too small and too chaotic, it is indeed not a place to live for a long time, and it is good to leave here.
Other than that...... And the obsession of the mother.
Originally, he was not interested in finding his father, but since his mother was obsessed with this, it would not be a big deal to take his mother to the capital after he was strong enough.
No matter if the father who has never met is dead or what's wrong, at least he can make his mother obsessed.
After these things are settled, find a stable place to live well...... By the way, I asked my uncle for a daughter-in-law......
As for yourself, you can practice martial arts with peace of mind and climb the top of this world.
I have not only experienced the scenery at the top, but also felt the most real warmth, so I came to this world in vain.
Thinking of this, Chen Che was no longer confused in his heart.
……
Half a quarter of an hour later.
Chen Che came to Lin's Pharmacy on Rongsheng Street in the Eastern District.
There was not much energy left in the Devouring Bottle, and he was going to buy some medicinal herbs to keep to replenish the energy in the Devouring Bottle.
After waiting for the guy in the store to take the medicine, the shopkeeper calculated the account and said with a smile: "Guest officer, a total of ten taels of silver." ”
"What?"
Chen Che's voice suddenly raised an octave.
If he remembered correctly, when he bought these medicines before, he spent a total of five taels of silver, and in the past few days, it has doubled?
Not to mention that this Rongsheng Street is the sphere of influence of the Sky Wolf Gang, he is wearing the help uniform of the Sky Wolf Gang today, and it stands to reason that the shopkeeper should still be discounted.
How can it be ten taels of silver?
The shopkeeper was not surprised when he saw Chen Che's reaction, and hurriedly smiled: "You don't know, just the day before yesterday, a group of people from the outer city attacked our Lin family's medicine garden, not only destroying most of the medicinal materials inside...... He also killed quite a few people.
Our Lin family is the largest supplier of medicinal materials in Stone Fire City, and as soon as this medicine garden is destroyed, the price of medicinal materials in the entire Stone Fire City will naturally rise......
That is to say, for the sake of you being a member of the Sky Wolf Gang, I will ask you for ten taels of silver, and if you change to someone else, you will get at least twelve or thirty taels. ”
"I see......"
Chen Che nodded slightly, and could only accept this price.
However, he only brought eight taels with him when he went out today, so the remaining two taels had to be credited.
"Shopkeeper, I'll bring you the remaining two taels tomorrow, I'm Chen Che of the Heavenly Wolf Gang Wolf Tooth Hall, and I won't lose your money."
Chen Che took out all the silver on his body and put it on the counter.
The shopkeeper took the silver and said with a smile: "Okay, I can still trust the reputation of the Sky Wolf Gang." ”
As he spoke, he bent down and took out a booklet from under the counter and said to Chen Che: "This brother, you must be a person who practices martial arts, right?"
If you go out of the city one day, please help our Lin family pay more attention to the few medicinal materials marked on this illustrated book.
My Lin family's medicine garden was destroyed, and these medicinal materials became particularly scarce, but whenever I found these medicinal materials, my Lin family was willing to buy them at a high price. ”
Chen Che's heart moved when he heard this, and he immediately took the illustrated book.
With the devouring yuan bottle here, he is destined to have to deal with medicinal herbs for the rest of his life.
But in fact, if he encounters medicinal herbs in the wild, he will not recognize them nine times out of ten.
So this knowledge, he should really make up for it.
"Okay, I'll make a note of it."
Chen Che put the illustrated book into his arms, then picked up the medicinal herbs and left.
……
"A medicinal herb is ten taels of silver, and I don't know if the price will increase in the future......
Come over in the afternoon and buy an extra one to keep ready.
So that's twenty taels of silver. ”
Chen Che silently calculated in his heart.
Zhang Ruoyuan gave him fifty taels of silver, and in the past few days, he has spent ten taels on beast meat, and now he has to spend twenty taels of silver to buy medicine, and most of it is gone......
It is impossible for Zhang Ruoyuan to send silver over in a short period of time.
As for the gang's dividends, they will have to wait for twenty days before they are paid.
You'll have to find a way to make some extra money.
……
Return home in the evening.
The uncle was practicing martial arts in the yard, and his mother Wang Rouzheng was washing clothes while instilling in him the idea that men must start a family.
"Mother, uncle, I'm back."
After Chen Che entered the courtyard, he said hello.
Wang Zhen immediately stopped when he heard this, and said loudly: "Change your clothes and come to fight with me!" ”
Although he spoke loudly, Chen Che could see a trace of emptiness in his eyes.
In the past few days, he has asked him why he doesn't want to marry a wife, but he has avoided answering this.
He had been with him for most of the previous few days, so it was clear to him that he hadn't asked anyone else.
But today is different......
"Good!"
Chen Che answered, then turned around and entered his room.
The moment he turned around, he caught a hint of relief on his uncle's face.
"Alas......"
Chen Che felt a little helpless.
That's how men are......
If there are any difficulties encountered outside, or what hardships are suffered, if the family members can't help much, most of them will choose to hold back in their hearts and bear it silently.
Uncle was no exception.
He could understand his uncle's mentality, so he decided to pretend he didn't know.
……
After changing his clothes, Chen Che came to the courtyard to discuss with Wang Zhen.
Compared to the first cut, he is now completely at ease.
This is still the situation that he deliberately suppressed his strength at the same level as his uncle.
After squirming for half an hour, Wang Zhen retreated to the side of the drying rack, picked up a towel on the drying rack and wiped the sweat on his head.
"Don't fight, you kid is already better than me."
In the half hour he had just sparred, he could clearly feel that his nephew was letting him.
In addition, under the collision of fists and feet, he could clearly feel that the strength of Chen Che's body was above him.
What's all there is to it?
The reason why he competed with his nephew was to improve his nephew's actual combat ability, and now that he is a nephew to help him improve his actual combat ability.
Chen Che withdrew his hand and said suddenly, "Uncle, I want to ask you about something." ”
"What's the matter?"
The towel in Wang Zhen's hand trembled slightly, and at the same time subconsciously glanced at Wang Rou not far away, as if he was a little nervous.
"How do the people of our Sky Wolf Gang make extra money, are there any fixed channels?"
Chen Che asked.
Wang Zhen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
It turned out to be this thing......
"I don't know about the other halls, but a few Qi and Blood Realm martial artists in our hall generally spend that day every month to team up to take on tasks and make some money.
Next time if there is such a thing, I will call you. ”
