Chapter 79 Fish and Shrimp
"The total is 420 taels, forty small notes of ten taels, and 22 taels of scattered silver. You still have a hundred taels in your hand, so the total is 520 taels. I thought that you sold this book so expensively. It will take several years to sell it anyway, who knows that it will be sold out in just a few days, and I will get back a lot of silver." Chen's mother narrowed her eyes and took out a small box, filled the broken silver, and whispered to Meng Xiaowan Say good things about Zhang Zhe in front of you.

Meng Xiaowan shook her head: "Don't think that you have made money now. After reading it in a few years, mother will be so angry that she vomits blood. It is not an exaggeration to say that this book is the best in the world. I am afraid that people will not sell it now. If I hide it for a few years and then get a few copies out, I’m afraid it will be worth the money.”

Mother Chen was taken aback when she heard this, and hurriedly found seven or eight copies of "Journey to the West: The Legend of Shi'er" from the bookshelf, and told Bailu to put them away quickly.

After the two finished hiding the book, Mother Chen whispered in Meng Xiaowan's ear again.

"Your Majesty is carrying a hundred taels of silver with you, so you must be more careful, don't be coaxed by those charming girls in the restaurant."

"Then I'm not worried at all," Meng Xiaowan turned a page of the book, "I'm afraid that those top cards will be posted upside down, and he will be in trouble for a while."

Zhang Zhe looked around the surrounding environment, and the village in the city was still a bit messy, so he wondered if he wanted to change to a rental house.

He can only stay in modern times for one hour a day, and he hopes to find a quieter place.He is going to start his first adventure today, but it will also be his last adventure. Zhang Zhe will not do this kind of thing again unless it is absolutely necessary.

In ancient times, it was 16 taels a catty, but in Dazheng, the reform of the ten-digit system was completed hundreds of years ago.Dazheng standard gold and silver exchange ratio, one tael of gold is exchanged for ten taels of silver, which is enough to hang a hundred copper coins.

In his current handbag, there is an ingot of gold, which weighs twelve taels, in exchange for his uncle Zhang Xu.

Zhang Zhe walked into a gold shop not far from the rental house, and walked out again four or ten minutes later.In modern times, the recycling of gold is extremely convenient, and it takes only a few minutes to transfer money by mobile phone.The reason why it took him four to ten minutes was mainly because the ancient gold was not pure enough, and the shopkeeper gave a conclusion of 10% pure after several tests.

Zhang Zhe only had a few hundred yuan left in his mobile phone account a few days ago, but now it has 16 more.In order to hurry, Zhang Zhe only ordered 320 a gram. For safety, he will move out of here tomorrow.

While walking back to his rental room, Zhang Zhe placed an order online.

95 fine silver is only five yuan per gram, and he ordered forty silver bars of twelve taels, leaving [-] in the account as a spare.

After changing his clothes and returning to Taowan study, Zhang Zhe finally settled down.It is well known that he does not have a printing factory or workers in his hands, and the origin of the book can be made up, but the gold bank in Dazheng is too deep, so he only dared to risk changing it in modern times, and vowed in his heart no more chance.

After walking around the room for a few times, Zhang Zhe was going to see Meng Xiaowan.

But a woman came outside the yard, she was Zhang Shitou's mother not far away.She came to talk to Mrs. Qin, Zhang Zhe was bored and sat in the yard to listen.

After a while, he heard two news that interested him.

The chariots and horses rented by the Song family seemed to have all headed towards Yanmen this morning, and the big show was about to start; the old patriarch and brother Shan's family of four or five were planning to go because they had sold their animals and had spare money. After going back to Nanyang, the land at home was sold out.

Hearing the second news, Zhang Zhe asked through the wall, and then realized that the old patriarch had a stroke and couldn't speak, so it wasn't his idea.And his grandson, who was studying in the private school, came back and said that he got the teacher's recommendation and went to study with another high-ranking master in the provincial capital. These days, he has been urging that house to move to Nanyang Dajun.

"Is it so easy to change the household registration?" Shitou Niang snorted in a low voice, "I haven't written my horoscope yet, and I'm going to change my agricultural registration to a merchant. I don't think that child is calm. But brother Shan It was as if he had been possessed by an evil spirit, and he actually talked about selling land with the Huang family."

The two women put the soles of Xiao Bantian's shoes by the wall, and Zhang Zhe also listened to Xiao Bantian's gossip.

When the sun turned red, Sanchi and Shitou appeared on the lake far away on a raft.Zhang Zhe looked at Sanqi bouncing on the raft facing him in the distance, and knew that the two of them had gained a lot today.

"It's not too small!" Sanqi proudly put fish and shrimp in Mrs. Qin's wooden bucket, "If the raft wasn't too small, I could still catch half more! Just my net, tsk tsk."

Mrs. Qin nodded her son's head with a smile, the pots at home were not enough.She turned and fetched another wooden basin, washed it in the lake water and loaded the fish on the raft.

Sanqi took a look at the place where his mother washed the tubs, and wondered, "Why does this basin smell so strong?"

"That girl Bai Lu, she knocked over a plate of vegetables in the lady's room yesterday, and she took this pot to wipe the floor, but it was soaked in some oil stains."

After sharing half of the three or seven catches, Huzi went to the shore of his home on the raft.Zhang Zhe watched the red sunset by the lake for a while, and was about to turn around.

But there was a slight sound of water, and a half-foot-sized carp jumped out of the water with a freshwater shrimp in its mouth.Zhang Zhe took a look at the place, it was the location where Mrs. Qin cleaned the oil stains just now.

"Come here tomorrow with some leftovers to make a nest, maybe you can catch a few carp." Zhang Zhe let go of his thoughts and walked a few steps home.

Suddenly, Zhang Zhe's face changed drastically, and he suddenly turned his head to look at the place where Mrs. Qin was washing the basin.

Grease!Fish and shrimp, fish and shrimp suddenly gather at the mouth of Huxi River.

Zhang Zhe looked in the direction of Huxi on the west side of Zhantian Lake, and his expression changed drastically.

To the west of Huxi is a large forest, with few people and animals.The Huxi River is so shallow that a raft cannot even go there, and the rocks and trees on both sides are too dense, so almost no one goes there.

And the upper reaches of the Huxi River come from the western mountains, which is a source of water for the Song family to detour through Yanmen to go west to the mountain road.

If the fish and shrimp in the lake can gather on a large scale in the lower reaches of Huxi, it means that there are many people at the water intake point in the upper reaches of Huxi!

Zhang Zhe closed his eyes, his thinking was overloaded.

After a while, Zhang Zhe opened his eyes.

Song family!He underestimated the Song family.

The Song family invited the name at this time, definitely not because they lost points in this Kobe.According to Zhang Zhe's original judgment, as long as the goods of the Song family are caught by Yan Fuzun in the mountains outside the county, no matter how good the Song family's reputation is, they will not be able to avoid this disaster.

The Song family's invitation at this time is obviously preparing for the end, and preparing for the forced accountability of the Song family when the government has no evidence at all!

Zhang Zhe was sweating slightly on his back. He guessed: Maybe someone had leaked the government's plan, and in the mountains to the west, there was a soldier from Shangyin County waiting for the Song family's convoy.

As far as he knew, the only army in Wuling today, the Ceshan Army, was still on the front line and hadn't returned yet. The only people in Hejun who could dispatch the Song family's convoy were five hundred soldiers from the county and a few hundred yamen servants.

If he was the head of the government office, for the sake of confidentiality, he would never conscript the county soldiers in advance to scare the snakes, and only use the hundreds of government servants who can be transferred at any time.

The purpose of the Song family's large number of invitations is to occupy the high point of public opinion, in order to deal with the possibility of forced conviction by the government afterwards.And the premise of all this is that none of the government officials who went to the mountains to hunt down the Song family's convoy could come back!
