The men in the village didn't know how to respond.
The money is a lot.
What they care more about is how much money Zhang Xiaolei has on his body.
Greed, rises in everyone's heart.
Zhang Xiaolei seemed to have seen these people's thoughts, and suddenly stood up and said: "Aunts, please go back to the house, I want to take off my clothes."
The women hurriedly walked back to the house, but saw Zhang Xiaolei undressed in front of these men, took out some money, and said: "All the money is here. One hundred taels will be given to you to return the children. Buy the money. Chicken stew."
"You don't have a lot of money, so why are you still doing this..." someone asked, "Aren't you afraid that we took the money but didn't return the child?"
Zhang Xiaolei whispered: "I will pass by Shangyuan Village. I will take a look at that time and I will know if you have returned the children."
"What if you haven't paid it back?"
"If you haven't paid back, I will naturally tell the people in Shangyuan Village about this place, are you going to lose the farmhouse here and run away?"
Someone said coldly, "Threat us? There is no one who has died in this wild country!"
Zhang Xiaolei spread his hand and said, "That's okay. It's good for you to divide a hundred taels of silver if you kill me, but..."
He changed the conversation and chuckled: "Don't kill me. If you don't have a daughter-in-law, go to marry a daughter-in-law. If you can't give birth to a child, buy a Ji, and then return the child. You can live in peace of mind. Which one is better?"
People were silent.
One hundred taels of silver.
There is not much money to split evenly.
Finally, a man opened his mouth and said: "Can't kill, he is a man."
"Yes, you may be punished for killing."
"Forget it, return the child. What people say is that it's good to have one by yourself."
Under the advice of these people, the atmosphere finally gradually warmed up.
Zhang Xiaolei put on the clothes again, he chuckled and said, "A few people are aware of current affairs."
"It's not about the current affairs, it's just respecting you as a man..." someone said with a toast, "We will go on the road early tomorrow morning, with our children and the meeting ticket. If the meeting ticket can get the value, we will go to Shangyuan Village. If it can't get it. Value, then bring the children back."
Under the recommendation, the reading app I am using recently has a lot of books, full of books, and fast update!
Zhang Xiaolei smiled and said, "Sure, cheers."
"Cheers."
People toasted Zhang Xiaolei one after another, and after the meal was over, the stewed chicken was brought out.
That family also vacated their house and let Zhang Xiaolei live in it.
Zhang Xiaolei sat on the bench at the door. He looked at the stewed chicken beside him, and suddenly thought of Li Fengwu.
Eat chicken for the first time in ten years after being abducted.
It was Li Fengwu who got caught in his bowl.
"Sir, three thousand seven hundred taels of silver. I guess it will be used soon. I will save a hundred taels and leave them for my parents..." He muttered to himself, "Is what I did is worth it? ?"
He couldn't figure it out.
value.
Still worthless.
Those children were obviously not abducted by him, he just witnessed all this with his own eyes, he just happened to know all this.
Zhang Xiaolei felt that he was innocent.
It's just that he doesn't want to see the separation of other people.
The suffering of those ten years made him understand this suffering best.
He smiled bitterly, took another drink, and bit the chicken wings in his mouth.
"Well, finally there is something delicious."
When he was full, he fell asleep.
When I woke up the next day, several men in the village had already brought their children and were going to Maicheng.
It's not far from here to Maicheng. If you walk, you can arrive at dusk.
When people saw Zhang Xiaolei wake up, someone brought some cakes and said to him: "My friend, since you are walking this way, you have to eat these cakes on the way to the next village in the afternoon."
Zhang Xiaolei took the cake and said with a smile, "Thank you."
"It would be better to thank you for your meeting ticket."
"You're welcome."
He did not stay in the village for a long time. After leaving the village, he took a detour, stopped in a wasteland, dug up the land here, and took out the meeting ticket and gold nugget that existed here yesterday.
Keep going.
Although it was a daytime for others to arrive in Yuncheng, Zhang Xiaolei was different.
He detoured for five days.
Before entering a village, he would hide the ticket, and then repeat the trick to get the child back.
When he finally came to Maicheng, three thousand seven hundred taels of silver, only three thousand taels were left.
One of the villages is larger and buys more children.
In that village, he spent two hundred taels.
Maicheng is a bit prosperous, not inferior to Yuncheng.
He stood outside the city gate, looking at the lively Maicheng, and suddenly felt a little relaxed.
Finally, none of the villages on the road were missed.
At the gate of Maicheng, a group of people surrounded them, looking at the notice on the gate.
Zhang Xiaolei also came here, patted someone on the shoulder, and curiously said, "Brother, what's that notice?"
The man said, "Do you think I am a literate person?"
"Then what are you doing around here?"
"I'm waiting for someone to read it to me, who knows there are not many literate people here!"
Zhang Xiaolei suddenly realized, so he shouted: "Come out if you don't read, I'll go in and read it."
After he finished shouting, a few people really let go.
Zhang Xiaolei leaned forward, saw the notice above, and suddenly smiled.
On the notice, a simple line of words was written.
Xiaolei, Xiaoling from Shao's family in Fengyun City.
This Shao Xiaoling.
Also claimed to be Xiaoling's father.
Presumably, I want to make people think that the Shao family is currently in charge of a man.
She obviously left without saying goodbye, but she made people rush, and came here to post a notice.
She must have posted notices in several cities around Yuncheng.
At this time someone curiously asked: "Brother, what is written on it?"
Zhang Xiaolei smiled and said, "Actually, I don't know how to read. I just want to come in and take a look."
"Pooh!"
"con man!"
Zhang Xiaolei scratched the back of his head and entered Maicheng.
With Shao Xiaoling's personality, it is estimated that she was jumping her feet in Yuncheng, cursing him with sores on the top of his head and pus on the soles of his feet.
Thinking of what Shao Xiaoling might look like, Zhang Xiaolei couldn't help but want to laugh.
He sorted out his mood and entered Maicheng to exchange tickets.
When exchanging the meeting ticket, he exchanged one thousand five hundred tael for the next city meeting ticket, so that it is convenient to go on the road.
After changing the meeting ticket, there is a teahouse on the street outside.
A flag was planted on the teahouse with a teapot painted on it.
It is the teahouse in Maicheng.
Zhang Xiaolei entered the teahouse, which was quite lively. People were sitting on the benches drinking tea and eating wine, shouting loudly.
Dian Xiaoer saw Zhang Xiaolei and asked quickly: "Guest, what do you want?"
Zhang Xiaolei smiled and said, "Teahouse, sit down and have tea."
"Guest officer, sit down."
He was sitting on the bench when two more people entered the teahouse.
The two men were in ragged clothes and their faces were messy.
When he came in, he said to Xiao Er: "Tea soup house, give a bowl of tea."
The shop's little second smiled politely. He brought two bowls of tea and shouted: "Come on, cheating on the tea requested by the immortal Li Fengwu." (End of this chapter)
