Two days later, Ji Rongjin and the three of them saw the ancestral house of the innkeeper's family, except for the homestead, the foundation of the house was bare, and the dilapidated one was unimaginable.

Boss Luo slipped away when he sent people, and the broken yard was surrounded by small town residents who watched the excitement, it was located in a remote place, and it was rare for outsiders to come all year round, but I didn't expect outsiders to be deceived by Boss Luo's house as soon as they came, and they all felt that the three of them were unlucky and had some sympathy, and whispered to each other.

Mai Xiaoji was furious and wanted to settle accounts with the innkeeper, "How can this live in people." "Roll up your sleeves, pick up your spear, and you're going to beat someone.

Ji Rongjin grabbed him, "Let's go find the pavilion chief." ”

"Useful for him?" Mai Xiaoji is actually a little bit of a temperament, but every time Ji Rongjin speaks, he can suppress the anger in his belly.

She smiled lightly, her demeanor was leisurely, not at all like she had been deceived into finding someone to administer justice.

Mr. Situ stretched out his hand to stroke his beard, smiled with a smile, and followed her to the pavilion chief's house.

"......" Only Mai Xiaoji is confused, why is it like going to drink tea?

Among the onlookers, some people had already rushed to the pavilion chief's house to report the news, because when Ji Rongjin arrived, Wu Pavilion Chief of Dongsheng Town was sitting at the door wearing a cotton robe and copying his hands.

Ji Rongjin glanced at the yard, took out a few fried millets from his sleeve pocket, and shouted to a big-eyed baby in the yard, "Little guy, borrow your small stool to sit on." ”

The winter in Yidong is long and cold, and it is almost April, and people will dare to come out of the house, and the cat has eaten all the food at home, let alone snacks.

The little kid resisted this temptation, wiped a handful of snot, and immediately gave the small stool under her ass to Ji Rongjin, stretched out her black and dirty little hand and snatched the millet in her hand, and peeled it off and ate it in three or two clicks, "It's delicious, it's so delicious." ”

The crowd of onlookers originally thought that this woman had come to quarrel with the pavilion chief, but they didn't expect to give the child snacks, and they all swallowed saliva greedily.

Wu Tingchang looked at the little lady in front of him with a puzzled expression, to be honest, he had never seen such a beautiful little lady in his life, it was even more beautiful than the Bodhisattva in the temple.

Ji Rongjin sat in front of the pavilion chief, and took out a dime of broken silver from his sleeve and put it on the table of the eight immortals beside Pavilion Chief Wu.

Wu Tingchang, who was contemptuous and ignored just now, had a pair of cloudy old eyes that lit up instantly, and he stretched out his hand to grab the silver horn, and he had lived for fifty or sixty years, it was really rare to see silver, silver!

Ji Rongjin held a dagger in his other hand to block his crumpled hand, "Find someone to help me repair the house." ”

Wu Tingchang frowned and snorted coldly, "You think it's beautiful." "Such a broken house, how can half a tael be enough.

"And how much do you want?"

"At least two-two-five." In fact, two taels can also be done, Wu Tingchang slipped his head, and said half a tael, and when the house is built, this half tael will belong to him.

This time it was Ji Rongjin's turn to frown.

"Hmph, don't fix it." Wu Tingchang is sure that she will repair the house, and if she doesn't repair where to live, she can't stay in the inn all the time.

"I mean, two, two, five."

Wu Tingchang didn't expect the little lady opposite to say such a thing, he was simply stunned, he had never heard people talk about the price low, and he had never heard of the price being high.

Could it be that you have met a fool?

"That'...... How much do you say? Wu Tingchang couldn't see through the little lady, and touched her tone to speak.

She held up a finger.

"Add one or two, three two five?" So much money can make a house very good.

Ji Rongjin shook his head: "No, ten taels." ”

"Sizzle......

"Sizzle......"

The pumping sounds rise and fall with each other.

Ten taels! Everyone couldn't believe what they heard, they could go to the county seat to buy a small courtyard. They were all frightened by the wealth of the little lady from the countryside, and they all signed up to help her repair the house.

Wu Tingchang's cloudy old eyes were as bright as the sun in the sky, God, it was issued, and it was sent immediately, and he immediately offered Ji Rongjin like a bodhisattva, and hurriedly recruited people to repair her house.

Wu Tingchang was so excited at the beginning that he was disappointed at the end, he thought he could get a handful of outsiders, but in the end he almost didn't put all his wood and stone on it.

He didn't expect that the foreigner's house was more luxurious than the yamen in the county seat.

A month later, the house was completed, all the labor costs, material costs, and logistics costs were settled, and everyone else went home happily to celebrate, so Wu Tingchang didn't leave at the door of Ji Rongjin's house, "If you don't make up the money for me, I will live in your house in the future." ”

Ji Rongjin smiled, she was busy with the house recently, she hired a little lady in the town to cook for the workers, called Cuifen, "You cook first, and then make two taels of wine, and invite the pavilion chief to eat today." ”

"Don't think that two or two small wines can buy me." Hearing that there was a little wine, Wu Tingchang was overjoyed in his heart, and he still looked bitter and hateful on his face, looking like he wouldn't do it if you didn't give money.

Ji Rongjin said with a smile, "There is no ...... for silver."

Wu Tingchang squatted on the ground, and when he heard this, he jumped up to reach the tiles on the gatehouse, "Then I'll tear down your gate!" ”

This little old man, Ji Rongjin was helpless, "My silver has really run out, and I have no money to pay you." ”

"You little lady, you actually lied to me about an old man, you are a good ......" Wu Ting was about to lift the tiles, but Ji Rongjin grabbed his hand, and he was just about to shake his hand, and his palm was slammed.

Reaching out, a small golden hairpin was lying in the palm of his hand.

"This little golden hairpin is worth at least five taels, enough for you to worry about a month's hard work for my house."

"......" enough, of course enough, Wu Tingchang's old eyes smiled at the moment, in a remote town like theirs, almost all of them are bartered, and it is rare to use copper, and silver is not seen, let alone gold.

The night he jumped out of the restaurant was the Lantern Festival, Ji Rongjin came out to play, not only brought silver, but also a lot of jewelry on his body, after waking up from the injury, he didn't see these things, and thought he had been picked up, until he bought a house, Mai Xiaoji said that the silver and jewelry on her body were hidden by him in the hollowed-out carriage beams.

Of course, she also brought more than ten taels, all of which were used to repair the house, the house she repaired was not a general five-room stone tile house, but similar to the modern Northeast house, in order to be more comfortable in the cat winter, all five rooms were connected to the heating flue, not only spent labor but also spent materials, and worked overtime for more than a month.

With the gold and the wine, Wu Tingchang's mood at the moment was extremely beautiful, and a large pot of stewed vegetables was placed in the middle of the table, steaming, he reached out and grabbed a chopstick: "It's delicious, it's really delicious." ”

Mr. Situ and Mai Xiaoji accompanied him from time to time to take a sip.

Ji Rongjin felt that he was almost drunk, and asked: "Old Pavilion Chief, my house has been repaired, what are your plans!" She sandwiched a piece of dried bean skin and put it in her mouth, made of pure natural soybeans, which is much more delicious than modern ones with high-tech and full of flavor.
