big song poppi

Chapter 8 0007 [It's Different]

After glancing at the two baskets of copper coins, Han Zhen let go of his hand: "Go away!"

After regaining their freedom, Wang Yuanwai and the housekeeper rushed into the side door, ignoring the servant who was still lying on the ground crying, and slammed the door shut.

"Quick, close the door!"

In the yard, Wang Yuanwai gave instructions in a low voice.

Seeing that the side door was pushed to death, he was still worried, and hurriedly slipped into the back house.

In the back house, Mrs. Hong saw Wang Yuanwai's panicked look, and hurriedly asked: "Master, why are you so panicked? Could it be that Li Tianwang from the Black Mountain is calling?"

Wang Yuanwai panted and said, "It's not the strong beam on the mountain, it's the rogue."

Hearing that it was Poppi, Hong felt relieved, and said in a contemptuous tone: "Just let them beat you, just let them go."

"What do you know!"

Wang Yuanwai reprimanded him with lingering fears.

At this moment, Mrs. Hong asked again: "Master, just now Housekeeper Lu paid fifty guan in the warehouse. I asked him, but he didn't say the reason, only that it was ordered by the master."

When mentioning the fifty pennies, Wang Yuanwai only felt a twinge of pain in his heart.

Fifty strings!

How long will it take to earn it back!
Although the purchasing power of copper coins continued to decline during the Huizong period of Song Dynasty, fifty guan is still a lot of money, which can buy eight sheep, or five cows, or two horses.

Moreover, fifty pennies only made his heart ache, and there was another thing that made him feel scared.

While waiting for Steward Lu to withdraw the money just now, Wang Yuanwai suddenly noticed that the eyes of the surrounding villagers looking at him changed.

The awe that had been there faded away, replaced by something he couldn't understand.

Thinking of the eyes of those villagers, Wang Yuanwai felt cold all over his body and his hands and feet were cold.

……

……

Outside the Wang's house.

The rogues raised their eyebrows and felt that they had never been so happy in their life.

Beating the servants violently, slapping the king's face in public, let alone doing such a thing, they dare not even think about it.

That's Wang Yuanwai, a big man who used to be high in the eyes of these gangsters.

Now in front of Han Zhen, he fled into the house in a panic like a dog.

It turned out that Wang Yuanwai was no different from them.

Ma Sangou has never been to school, so he doesn't know how to describe the feelings in his heart. He only knows that he seems to be different, but he can't tell what is different.

Seeing that Gu Song's forehead was still bleeding, Han Zhen asked concerned: "Does it matter?"

Gu Song was still in a state of excitement, wiped the blood on his face casually, and said nonchalantly: "Second Brother Han, I'm fine, just a little blood."

Seeing this, Han Zhen didn't say anything, turned around and said: "Sangou, you take some money and go to the county to rent two bullock carts."

Xiaowang Village is more than ten miles away from the county seat. If there is no ox cart, more than 500 catties of wild pigs and more than 200 catties of copper coins, they will not be able to return to the county town until dark.

"it is good!"

Ma Sangou nodded, grabbed a few handfuls of money from the basket, stuffed them into his arms, and strode towards the county seat.

Then, Han Zhen ordered: "Monkey, go to the villagers to buy some food. By the way, if you have chickens, you can also buy a few."

The monkey is the Popi who just proposed to find someone to identify the wild pig. His real name is Yang Shu. Because of his thin body and long arms and legs, he was given such a nickname.

From Xiaowang Village to the county seat, it takes an hour to come and go.

He is so hungry that his eyes are dizzy now, and he can't wait to eat pork at all, so he can only deal with it casually to fill his stomach.

It was time for the villagers to have breakfast, so the monkey came back with a large bowl of porridge in a short time.

Putting down the clay pot, he took out four more boiled eggs from his arms.

There are five of them, and four eggs are not enough.

Seeing this, Han Zhen frowned and said, "Why don't you buy more?"

The monkey smiled wryly and said, "Second brother Han, it's not that I don't want money, but I searched all over the village, and there are only these four chickens."

Come to think of it, few people raise chickens in the countryside these days.

People can't keep alive, so how can they have the energy to raise chickens.Even if someone raises chickens, the eggs are sold for money.

These four eggs were probably laid by the hen this morning...

Han Zhen picked up one and smashed the shell: "Four is four, monkeys get two for one."

The monkey waved his hand and said, "Second Brother Han, let's eat, I'll save my stomach to eat meat at night."

"Yes, Brother Han, you can eat."

The three of Gu Song talked, and put the chickens in their hands in front of him.

Han Zhen was not hypocritical, and did not pretend to refuse.

After a few bowls of porridge and four eggs, my stomach finally felt much more comfortable.

Near noon, the temperature is getting higher and higher, as if to dry people.

Han Zhen greeted the rogues, and dragged the wild pig's body to the shade of a tree.

If the weather is exposed to the sun for an hour, the pork will definitely deteriorate.

Sitting under the shade of a tree, Han Zhen carefully inspected the simple knife and found a tiny crack on the blade.

But he didn't feel distressed, because it was a low-quality product, and the original owner seemed to have spent more than 600 coins to buy it in his memory.

Now that I have money, I can exchange for a high-quality knife after returning to the county.

An hour later, Ma Sangou came back in an ox cart.

After loading the wild boar and the copper coins into two bullock carts, Han Zhen and the others walked towards the county seat.

When I came, I was empty-handed, and when I went back, I returned with a full load.

A group of rogues were in a good mood, and they didn't feel tired even after walking a dozen miles of mountain roads under the scorching sun.

The two guards on duty at the east gate already knew that they had killed the wild pig. Although Ma Sangou had boasted to them before, seeing the corpse of the wild pig with his own eyes, he still couldn't help but look horrified and amazed.

"Remember to come to the temple to eat meat after the value is off."

Hearing what Han Zhen said, the two guards quickly responded with a smile and praised him for his righteousness.

Entering the east gate of the county seat, the wild pigs on the ox cart immediately attracted many people to watch.

Ma Sangou and the others couldn't bear it and began to show off again. By the time the ox cart drove into Zhenquan Temple, the story of Han Zhen beating the wild boar to death with his bare hands had already spread in Linzi County.

……

There is a large open space in the backyard of Zhenquan Temple. Many flowers were originally planted for pilgrims to visit.

Later, Zhenquan Temple fell into disrepair, and several old monks simply reclaimed the backyard into a vegetable field and planted some fruits and vegetables to satisfy their hunger.

After hiding the two baskets of copper coins in the wing room, Han Zhen directed the hooligans to move the wild pig to the open space in the backyard.

Patting the dust off his hands, Han Zhen ordered: "Monkey, run around and call Butcher Zheng."

"Good Le!"

The monkey responded, and slid out of the temple gate.

Han Zhen took out another handful of copper coins from his pocket and handed them to Gu Song: "Take the money and go to the medical center to find Dr. Wang for a look."

The wound on Gu Song's forehead was no longer bleeding, and the wound was covered with scabs of blood, which looked really bluffing.

"Second Brother Han, it's just a small injury, it's fine."

Gu Song shook his head, he didn't want to go to the clinic, he wanted to stay and see Xie Zhu.

Seeing that he was alive and kicking, it really didn't look like something happened, so Han Zhen didn't care about it.
