Lin Fan picked up the black box on the stone platform.

A piece of paper fell.

Lin Fan picked it up and saw an address written on it.

Chen County, Ziyi Lane, Li Ji Grocery Store, 1,000 taels of silver.

After seeing the content of this note, Lin Fan smiled in his heart, this is quite cautious.

Out of warehouse No. 2, the stone gate was closed again.

When Lin Fan walked to the cottage martial arts arena, Chen Hai had already greeted him.

gestured at Lin Fan for a while.

This time Lin Fan understood, Chen Hai meant that he had already changed his clothes and set up the carriage.

and asked if he needed to help Lin Fan with the box.

Lin Fan had taken it hard before, so he was naturally happy to let Chen Hai take it and hand it to him.

When he arrived at the side of the carriage, Chen Hai very skillfully put the box into a secret compartment of the carriage.

From his actions, Lin Fan guessed that this person should follow his cheap father and send heads a few times.

Lin Fan asked with a smile: "Lao Chen, did you and my father also send a black box?" ”

Chen Hai didn't make a gesture this time, but nodded vigorously.

"Then do you know the Li Ji grocery store in Ziyi Lane?"

Lin Fan asked, and Chen Hai nodded vigorously again.

"Then we'll go to the Lee Kee grocery store."

After Lin Fan finished speaking, he got into the carriage, but he didn't sit in the shed, but sat outside.

He wanted to take a closer look at the situation in ancient society.

After all, the original owner was a pedantic scholar, and he almost never came out of the cottage a few times.

Chen Hai drove forward.

Along the way, Lin Fan's mood became heavier and heavier.

Although he knew that in the last days of the imperial dynasty, the feudal towns were divided and the forced labor was too heavy, and the people at the bottom must have had a hard time living.

But he didn't expect it to be so miserable.

There are people who sell their sons and daughters, sell their bodies to bury their fathers, and commit suicide by jumping into the river.

There was even a group of people who were tied up with ropes to serve in forced labor.

They were all yellow-skinned and thin, and their eyes were numb, like the walking dead.

It wasn't until he entered the city that Lin Fan's mood was much better.

Although there are beggars in the city, it is also much more prosperous.

When entering the city, both carriages and goods must be inspected and taxes paid.

While waiting, Lin Fan saw the reward notice posted at the gate of the city.

In addition to the flower thief, there are also him, the owner of Qinglong Village, and other cottage owners.

It's just that these portraits are not as good as they should be, they don't look like them at all.

Soon, those bounty amounts caught Lin Fan's attention.

He found that they, the cottage owners, were not as much as the bounty offered by a flower thief!

The heads of these village owners ranged from fifty to one hundred taels, and the flower thief turned out to be eight hundred taels.

What's going on? Lin Fan couldn't help frowning, could it be that the flower thieves in this world are more harmful than the bandits?

No, Lin Fan quickly rejected the previous speculation.

He suddenly thought of the note.

His head was sent to Li Ji's grocery store, but it could be exchanged for 1,000 taels, and the county government's bounty was only 800 taels.

That means that this bounty is not from the county.

The task that Xiaomei took should not be from the county government, but from Li Ji grocery store, after all, there is a difference of two hundred taels!

Of course, in order to confirm his speculation, when he paid the city tax, he asked the city guards with a smile.

"Official, why is the reward for the flower thief higher than that of the cottage owner?"

"What's so strange about this, the flower thief killed Wang Yuanwai's daughter, this is the reward from the Wang family, those cottage owners are paid by the county government, of course the price is different."

"I see."

Lin Fan deliberately pretended to be suddenly enlightened, thanked the official and left.

Chen Hai came to the Li Ji grocery store in Ziyi Lane.

So it's not hard to find.

Chen Hai was in charge of watching the carriages and horses.

Lin Fan walked inside with the box.

The guy was the first to greet him.

When you can see the mark in the box in his hand.

The whole person's expression changed, and he said politely to Lin Fan: "Distinguished guest, please come with me." ”

Lin Fan had never been with his father, and his little sister had never told him about the results.

He could only follow his fellow to a room in the backyard of the store with apprehension.

"Distinguished guest, the shopkeeper is inside, you can go in by yourself, and the small one is busy."

After Xiao Er finished speaking, he saluted Lin Fan again before leaving.

Lin Fan took a deep breath and pushed the door in with the box.

When I entered the room, I saw a rich middle-aged man dressed in gorgeous brocade, sitting on the Luohan bed, drinking tea alone.

When the man saw Lin Fan coming in, he just glanced at him lightly.

He said lightly: "Who is in the box?" ”

"The flower thief Ji Wuhua."

Lin Fan replied truthfully.

The man went on to ask, "A thousand bounties, is it exchanged for silver tickets or grain?" ”

Lin Fan thought that after going back, he would develop a cottage, and food was a necessity.

"Let's change it to food!"

"Do you ship it yourself or do we send it?"

Lin Fan was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "What do you say?" ”

The words obviously interrupted the man's rhythm.

He subconsciously turned his head, couldn't help but glance at Lin Fan more, and then looked at the box in his hand.

Something suddenly came to mind.

Only then did he continue: "Ship it yourself, bring someone to Li Ji Grain Store tomorrow, and pull away 3,000 stone of grain, if we transport it, deduct 10% of the transportation cost, and send it to your Qinglong Village for 2,700 stones." ”

"Luck it!"

Lin Fan thought of his cheap father in his memory, as if he had never let the people in the cottage transport grain.

"Okay."

The man answered and threw a bamboo card to Lin Fan.

"After the grain arrives, this is the handover voucher, and there is the latest bounty task on it, whether to undertake it, you can consider it when you go back."

Lin Fan took it, and when he saw that there was indeed a task record, but the content of the record was in classical Chinese, he could only put it away and prepare to go back and read it again.

It's just that when he left, he suddenly remembered that he didn't say that he was from Qinglong Village, and that person actually knew.

So he asked, "How do you know that I'm from Qinglong Village?" ”

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't say what you shouldn't say, this time for your father's sake, spare you once, if there is a next time, you won't forgive, let's go!"

Instead of answering his question, the man gave him a warning.

Especially when he said the last sentence, the sharp eyes scared Lin Fan and couldn't help but be excited.

Out of the room, he muttered in a low voice: "Numb, what are you pretending, I'm scared to death, sooner or later, I will spank you one day." ”

"Boy, scold people behind your back, run away in the future, otherwise with your words, it will lead to death."

As the man's voice fell.

A teacup broke out of the window and went straight to Lin Fan's brain.
