Chapter 103: Exploring the Money Village at Night
The purple jade that spread people apart walked casually on the main street of Xingyuan Mansion.
It seems to be a casual walk, but you can see the shops on both sides.
The big gold-lettered signboard of Qiantong Qianzhuang was erected outside a two-story stone house, and Ziyu stood opposite Qianzhuang for a while before leaving.
People who walked around the long street twice before they were rerouted to the next street.
An hour later, Ziyu returned to the teahouse, and Xia Qiqi was waiting for the door of the teahouse with several strings of paper bags hanging on his body.
"Young master, you're back so soon!"
Seventeen's gaze fell on Ziyu's waist very vaguely, and Ziyu slapped Seventeen on the shoulder in annoyance.
"Where are you looking! Something that doesn't have rules, lead the way to the inn in front. ”
"Hehe, young master, please!"
Seventeen hippie smiled and led the way in a wrong step, the wise and martial young master never scolded them, otherwise where would he have the courage to be presumptuous in front of the young master.
If it was seen by Steward Sheng and Steward Liu, it would definitely be another lecture.
Ziyu, who lived in the upper room of the Fulai Inn, drove Seventeen back to the ship, taking with him the snacks and sweets he bought.
…
At the beginning of the ugly hour, a dark shadow slid down the window and drowned into the night.
The black shadow slid into the small skylight on the high part of the bank, and under the torches, two people with knives on duty at night walked back and forth to drive away the sleepiness on their bodies.
A handful of colorless and odorless medicinal powder fell, and two people on night duty in five breaths sat against the wall and fell asleep.
The black shadow uncovered the roof tiles and tied a thick rope to the beam, and the black shadow slid down with the thick rope.
Under the shiny luster of the night pearl that suddenly appeared, it can be seen that there are hundreds of large wooden boxes with copper edging in the room.
The masked black shadow flickered with big eyes, and opened a box casually.
Pick up a silver ingot and weigh it, fifty taels of silver ingots, the same as the one received before.
A box of 100 silver ingots is 5,000 taels per box.
The shadow opened all the chests in the house and found only twenty chests of gold, and the rest were all silver.
Eight chests of gold disappeared under the Night Pearl, and the Black Shadow placed a stack of golden tickets in one of the boxes and pressed them with gold ingots.
The lid of the box was not closed, and the person who put away the night pearl grabbed the thick rope and climbed to the roof a few times.
After putting away the thick rope, the newly opened skylight was left and walked away.
…
From time to time, Ziyu, dressed in a moon-white brocade dress, sat by the window of the teahouse, glancing at the street from time to time.
There was not a single wave on the calm street, and Ziyu knew that the golden tickets left behind had worked.
Eight mule carts stopped at the door of the teahouse, and the loud voice of seventeen sounded.
"Wait a minute, the third master, my young master is upstairs!"
Ziyu didn't wait for Seventeen to speak, then got up and went downstairs, and happened to be opposite Seventeen who ran up.
"Young master, Seventeen is about to come up and talk to you." Seventeen scratched his head.
"See, go!"
Ziyu, who went downstairs, greeted the three people waiting outside, got into the carriage waiting on the side, and slowly left.
Seeing that his young master was not waiting for him, the monkey hurriedly trotted two steps, jumped into the car in front of him and sat with the coachman.
The mule cart behind consciously followed, and a small convoy quickly disappeared into the street.
…
Xiaxiang County, a subordinate city of Xingyuan Prefecture, is located at the foot of the branch of the million mountains.
Six ragged men, bearded and with a face half covered by falling hair, entered Xiaxiang County with a bear and a tiger.
Six people entered Xiaxiang County, pulling a self-made rack car to find the largest local pharmacy along the way.
The six people, who were full of fierceness and blood, scared away all the people who saw the doctor as soon as they entered the pharmacy, and everyone thought that the bandits on the mountain had descended the mountain.
The doctor was so frightened that the brush in his hand shook, and a drop of ink fell on the freshly written formula.
"Don't be afraid, doctor, we hunted a bear and a tiger.
There are bear bile and tiger bones, please ask the shopkeeper to come out for an interview. ”
Ma Wei saw that the boss was standing silently like a javelin, so he had to step forward to explain his intentions.
These six people are Zhong Lishuang and the others who entered the mountain from the north.
The six of them were covered with brown stains in their ragged clothes, and they could no longer see their original colors.
The mask that Zhongli Shuang used to wear on his face was gone, replaced by his hair, and only a few of his thick beards remained.
At this time, Zhonglishuang is no longer Zhonglishuang, but Libai.
The other five didn't use their real names anymore, and they all added one word to their original names, or one less word.
The old doctor who was about to rewrite the recipe, the recipe didn't write anymore, and got up to check outside.
"Pull it to the backyard, and you'll have to clean it up." The old doctor was overjoyed when he saw it, and his beard shook incessantly.
Both tigers and bears are fierce big guys, and few hunters in Xiaxiang County can hit them.
Bear bile and tiger bone are precious medicinal materials that can be encountered but not sought, and they are most liked by the rich.
…
Cleaning up prey is a piece of cake for a few men who are good at playing with knives.
These days in the old forest, I have long been perfect.
With just one cup of tea, a bear and a tiger were turned into flesh and hung upside down.
Bear bile, bear paw, tiger bone, tiger whip, bear skin, tiger skin, these need to be shot separately, all put aside.
The old doctor saw that the six people were all experts, and he didn't dare to lower the price, mainly because he was afraid that the six people would not accept it and smash the pharmacy again.
After a whisper with the shopkeeper who had been invited, he made a bid.
"Bear bile is eighty taels of silver, and tiger bones are five taels of silver a catty!
Tiger whip, tiger meat, bear paws cut love, if you want, the old man can help with tiger skin, bear skin and bear meat. ”
"If the price is right, you can sell it!" Ma Weiyuan said with a look of wealth obsessed.
Although no one could see the money on his face, the meaning in his words was very obvious.
…
When the six people left the pharmacy empty-handed, Ma Weiyuan spat fiercely.
"Damn, I didn't expect hunting to make so much money, I knew that I should have hunted in millions of mountains in the first place, and now I must be a rich man.
Boss, how about we rest for a few days and then go up the mountain to do a ticket? ”
"If you want to go into the mountains in the winter to feed the beasts, don't pull your brothers.
Find a place to settle down first, and then plan later. "Libai said lightly.
"Hey, hey, boss, you've changed!
Since coming down the mountain, you've had a temperature on you. "Ma Weiyuan is not afraid of death.
"Get out!"
"Hahaha, the boss still has that temper!"
Ma Weiyuan, who got another word as he wished, walked on the street and laughed.
The bosom was bulging, the mood was unusually steady, and everyone on the street was full of joy.
850 taels of silver, which was worth a year's worth for the six of them.
…
The six people went into the garment shop to buy two sets of clothes, jackets, and boots, and one should be matched and spent 120 taels of silver.
The man who was used to being lavish waved his hand proudly, and in a blink of an eye, there was only 730 taels of silver left.
Ma Weiyuan, who was in charge of managing money, held the silver two and never let a few people buy anything.
"We are not allowed to spend any more, we don't even have a place to stay, and we don't have food to eat.
If we continue to spend lavishly, we will only live on the streets, and I don't want to sleep under the eaves in winter. ”
