The man stared at the half chicken in Shen Ning's hand, swallowed hard, and said with a smile: "If you don't want to eat it, just give me this half too, and I'll give you money."
"Okay." Shen Ning nodded, "How much money are you prepared to pay?"
"Five taels!" The man puffed up his chest and said with great wealth.
He noticed that Shen Ning was wearing a coarse cloth skirt, with only a thorn hairpin on her head. The hem of the skirt was torn by thorns and was in tatters. Her face was gray and black, and only her eyes were clear and bright. , should be a girl from a poor family.
Five taels of silver is enough to live in an Orion home in the mountainous area for a year.
He thought that after he finished speaking, the other party would jump with joy, but Shen Ning was not moved at all, but shook her head.
"Not enough," she said.
"What did you say?" The man thought his ears had heard wrongly.
"I said, five taels of silver is not enough."
Haha, this little girl is young but has a big appetite.
The man slowly raised his eyebrows.
"Then how much is enough," he said slowly.
Shen Ning stretched out her palm and shook it.
The man seemed to take a breath.
"Fifty taels?"
This little girl really dares to open her mouth like a lion and wants fifty taels for half a roast chicken? Thinking about money is crazy!
"Not enough." Shen Ning still said the same two words.
The man's eyes widened: "Five hundred taels?"
"Five thousand taels." Shen Ning smiled slightly.
The man closed his mouth tightly and stopped talking.
He has concluded that the little girl in front of him is a madman, an absolute madman.
Half a roast chicken costs 5,000 taels of silver, so what if I'm not crazy
The man turned around and left without thinking.
He felt that he was really stupid. He had been talking to a madman for a long time, but he actually found it quite interesting.
Shen Ning didn't even look at the man's leaving figure. She held half of the roast chicken in her hand, looked at it carefully, sat down by the fire, tore off a chicken wing, put it in her mouth and ate it with peace of mind. stand up.
A tall shadow blocked the firelight in front of her.
"Five thousand taels, five thousand taels, bring it!" The man stretched out a big palm, which was covered with calluses and scars.
It was a hand full of vicissitudes of life, and it didn't match the man's young face.
Shen Ning did not raise her head.
"Pay the money with one hand and the chicken with the other." She said slowly.
The man grabbed half of the roast chicken from her hand and ate it in big gulps. He ate very quickly. After eating, he threw away the chicken bones in his hand and his eyes fell on the chicken wings that she took a bite of. , he grabbed it with his hands and stuffed it into his mouth unceremoniously.
He wiped his mouth.
"Let's go."
Shen Ning sat there motionless.
"where to?"
The man raised his eyebrows.
"Don't you want five thousand taels? I don't have that much silver with me. Come with me and I'll take you to get the silver."
These words sounded like those spoken by a trafficker who abducted a little girl.
Even thinking about it, he felt a little blushing, but when he thought about this little girl brazenly asking for five thousand taels of silver, he felt calm again.
If you call yourself a liar, then this little girl is blackmailing you!
He didn't believe that this little girl had the guts to follow him, so wasn't she afraid that he would sell her out
As long as she didn't dare to go, it's no wonder he was there. It wasn't that he didn't give her the money, it was that she didn't have the guts to get it.
The man crossed his arms and looked at Shen Ning confidently.
