The big man was holding a mace, staring at the woman with a fierce look, "Don't you see that the word Zhou is engraved on this well, this originally belonged to Master Zhou's family." ”

The woman said in an atmosphere: "This word was not there yesterday, it is clearly your ....."

"What are you talking about!" The big man stared at the woman fiercely, and slammed the mace in his hand to the ground, "This is carved by the ancestor of Master Zhou's family, isn't it!"

The big man stared at everyone, which means, Lao Tzu is here, what do you dare to do!

There were some old and weak women and children all around, and no one dared to stand up and refute the big man.

Chen Mingjie was curious, where did all the young people in the village go?

Everyone dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, but they were reluctant to leave here.

After asking an old man on the side, Chen Mingjie learned that there had been a severe drought for a month and that there had not been a drop of rain for a long time, and the villagers saw that the river had dried up, the trees had dried up, and the rice fields had decayed, and even a sip of water was a luxury.

This is the only well in the village, and now the villagers rely on it to make a living, and the less and less well water makes the Zhou family, the landlord of the village, start the idea of a well, so there is this scene just now.

One or two pieces of silver is nothing to the wealthy merchants and princes and nobles of Qilin City, but for the villagers of Candlemoon Village, it is likely to be a year's income.

And even if you have this money, it is impossible to exchange it for water.

This well water belongs to all the villagers, so why do you say that it is your Zhou family?

The big man sat on the manhole cover, crossed Erlang's legs, and said triumphantly: "Master Zhou is a good man, as long as he has silver, he can get water, and now the river is dry, this water is more expensive than anything else, and one or two silver is really not much." ”

A woman seemed to be moved by the words, and was about to step forward with the little silver left in her hand, but was stopped by a young man who looked like a Taoist priest.

The woman was a little surprised, and turned her head to look at the young man, and saw that he was wearing a white robe, and although he was still young, he had a chivalrous spirit.

Everyone looked sideways, only to see the young man carrying a golden sword, and his eyes were sharp looking at the big man in front of him.

The young man stepped forward and said, "There is an old man with inconvenient legs and feet, let me get a bowl of water, and please let me go." ”

The big man didn't care, and said in his heart: Where did the Maoshan Taoist come from, don't think that you are a hero with a sword.

Dahan stretched out his hand, "One or two pieces of silver." ”

The young man said, "I want to charter this well, I don't know how much silver it will cost?"

Everyone shuddered when they heard this, and they had never heard of such a thing as chartering a well.

The big man was also surprised, but he quickly returned to normal, and said provocatively: "This is interesting, you can keep it if you want to, a thousand taels of silver!"

Everyone was shocked, you guy is simply a lion with a big mouth, a broken well, and you actually want a thousand taels of silver?

"Is this true?" Chen Mingjie asked coldly.

"Yes, my Ah Biao is a good talker, Tong Su is not bullied, and if he says a thousand taels, he will be a thousand taels. ”

Ah Biao made up his mind, as long as this young man has nothing wrong with his head, it is impossible to accept his unreasonable request, if you want to fight, Lao Tzu is not afraid of you.

"Good!"

Chen Mingjie took out a thousand taels of silver from his arms and handed it to Ah Biao, "Now this well belongs to me." ”

Everyone was shocked, Ah Biao's unreasonable request was simply to humiliate the young man, and he couldn't imagine that the young man really took out a thousand taels of silver.

Although there is no need to waste a thousand taels of silver, Chen Mingjie thinks that this guy should be taught a lesson that he will never forget.

For those whose lives are threatened, a thousand taels of silver is nothing at all.

Water in the desert is worth more than gold.

Ah Biao didn't expect the young man to really take out a thousand taels.

He just occupied this well for the landlord Master Zhou, and he couldn't think of killing a Cheng biting gold halfway, which made him feel at a loss.

He thought to himself: Well, then take this thousand taels of silver and go back to pay the errand, Master Zhou should not blame himself.

"Don't get out of the way, now this well is mine, I want to get water. Chen Mingjie walked to the well and pushed Ah Biao away.

Ah Biao is a little annoyed, do you dare to push Lao Tzu?

But at this time, he trembled in his heart, how could he say that he was also a fat man of nearly two hundred pounds, how could he be pushed away by this young man so easily.

And looking at him, it seems to be very relaxed, not at all effortless.

Forget it, I won't bother with you today.

Take this thousand taels to pay the difference, and save yourself trouble.

And even if he takes one hundred and eighty taels less, the landlord of Zhou should not know about the drops.

Ah Biao had his own little abacus in his heart, and was about to leave, but he heard the young man say coldly: "Slow!"

"The villagers of Candlemoon Village can take this well, except for you and Landlord Zhou. ”

When everyone heard this, they all applauded, not only did everyone have water to take, but the young man also taught Ah Biao and the landlord Zhou a hard lesson in this way.

Ah Biao stood in place, anger burning in his heart.

Everyone else can do it, but he can't, it's not for him!

But at this time, he had already collected the money, and so many people were here, if he was rude to the young man again, it seemed that he couldn't justify it.

Ah Biao's face was flushed, and he said angrily: "Boy, you, you wait for me..... offended Master Zhou, but you don't have a good fruit to eat....."

Everyone was a little worried that the young man would be in trouble, but he didn't care at all, and said with a smile, "Well, but it's not impossible for you to come to get water." ”

Ah Biao saw that the young man was relieved, thinking that the threat had worked, and he was immediately overjoyed.

But when he heard the next sentence, he almost fainted.

I only heard the young man say: "It's okay for you and the landlord of Zhou to come to get water, but a bucket costs ten taels of silver." ”

What the!

Ten taels of silver!

You're even darker than a black shop!

Seeing that Ah Biao, who had been bullying people all along, was mocked like this, everyone finally let out a bad breath and laughed out loud.

"If the kid has a seed, report it?"

"Under Chen Mingjie, waiting for you at any time!" Chen Mingjie said with a grin.

"Okay, boy, you wait......" With that, Ah Biao put the mace on his shoulder and walked away.

"Thank you, Chen Shaoxia. The woman said gratefully.

"You're welcome, let's get some water. Chen Mingjie said enthusiastically.

Everyone thanked them one after another, and then asked Chen Mingjie to fetch water first.

In fact, everyone knows who the person with inconvenient legs and feet that Chen Mingjie said before is, and it is not that everyone is unwilling to help the beggar, but because his family can't get water, and he has no spare energy to help the beggar.

The villagers of Candlemoon Village are very kind, although everyone came to fetch water, no one took too much, because everyone knew in their hearts that if they took a little water, they would take a little less.

If everyone grabs water, soon everyone will be out of water.

After a stick of incense, Chen Mingjie took the water back, and the old beggar drank the water and said happily: "Comfortable!"

"Thank you, little brother" beggar old man.

"The old man doesn't have to be polite," Chen Mingjie asked, "what is going on? Why did everyone get to such a point in order to grab water?"
