The lucky girl in the village has a good way of making money.

Chapter 477 Hate to the bone
"Hahaha! Miss Pomegranate is really an amazing woman!" Prefect Cheng's laughter penetrated the beams of the house. "This time we have wiped out a total of 78 rebels, and captured 32 rebels. This is really cause for celebration!"

Shi Liu, who was looked at by him with an admiring expression, was neither arrogant nor impatient. "Master Cheng, you are too kind. This time, we were able to capture so many rebels in one fell swoop, which was inseparable from Master Cheng's decisiveness, and even more inseparable from the bravery of General Ji and others in killing the enemy."

Prefect Cheng disagreed, "Hey, Miss Pomegranate, you are too modest. If it weren't for your brilliant plan, how could you have gotten this much if you hadn't asked Mr. Liu to take out a batch of gold, silver and jewelry to lure the rebels into a trap?"

Then he looked at Liu Dongjia who was standing beside him, "Liu Dongjia, aren't you right?"

Liu Dongjia smiled and said, "You are indeed overpraising me, sir. Even if she has a plan, without your trust and decisive deployment and cooperation, it would be just talk. How could she wipe out these rebels? This time it is all your credit!"

Prefect Cheng pointed at him, shook his head and laughed, "I forgot that you treat Miss Pomegranate as your own junior, and you really protect her. What's the matter? Am I the kind of person who can't tolerate others?

Don't be so modest. You and Miss Pomegranate have both made contributions this time. I know it and will report it truthfully."

Liu Dongjia and Shi Liu looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

After a pause, Prefect Cheng asked about Liu Dongjia again, "Have the three carts of gold, silver and jewelry used as bait been sent back to the mansion? Is there anything missing?"

Liu Dongjia hurriedly said, "Thank you for your concern, sir. It's exactly what I gave you."

"That's good." Prefect Cheng nodded. Although the prince did not care about relatives outside the family, Liu Dongjia was still the cousin of His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, and a cousin recognized by the Fifth Prince. Who dared to touch the Liu family's money?
If there are people with dishonest hands under his command, it would be a loss of face for him as a superior.

However, Liu Dongjia was really courageous this time. He took out three carts of gold, silver and jewelry as soon as he said he would, without worrying that if something unexpected happened, these three carts of treasures would be wasted.

It really made him break out in a cold sweat, but fortunately, he won a great victory this time.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Liu Dongjia say, "Sir, I am willing to take out a sum of money and give fifty taels to the families of the warriors who sacrificed their lives, and twenty taels to each of the injured."

Prefect Cheng was startled, then he was overjoyed, "Then I'd like to thank Mr. Liu on their behalf. Mr. Liu is so kind!"

Soldiers who died on the battlefield received pensions after their death. After he reports the killing of rebels, he will naturally receive some as well, but it won't be too much. Mr. Liu is willing to give fifty taels per family, which is really the best thing!
Fifty taels is not a small amount!

Liu Dongjia said it was not necessary, as it was his token of his love.

But he couldn't help but look at Shi Liu. In fact, it was Shi Liu who wanted to pay the silver, but he was the one who said it.

After all, if a little girl like Shi Liu said this carelessly, it would be too eye-catching.

It is not appropriate to show off this kind of limelight.

Shi Liu knew what was going on, but she was also grateful to the officers who killed the rebels. To be fair, she was very grateful for their help and for avenging the people of Erli Village.

They lost their lives and were injured because of this, so it is only right that she should do her part, otherwise she would feel uneasy.

—

After coming out of the government office, Liu Dongjia and Shi Liu got on two carriages one after the other and headed straight for Liu's Mansion.

After entering Liu's house, the two went into the study to talk.

"These rebels are just dying and it seems that we can never kill them all. Clearly, the entire Bingzhou was massacred before, and so many remnants of the rebels were captured. Unknowingly, so many rebels have infiltrated Bingzhou again. Look at how many people the other side sent this time? They are also holding on to this treasure! They are watching you very closely, and I'm afraid they won't let go easily."

"After this, those rebels will only hate you even more. You must be more careful when you go out and be more alert at night. You should not entrust important matters to Ke Hu and his men. But since they are paid to help others avoid disasters, you should arrange them to stand guard at night to protect your safety. They will not be careless in this matter. After all, they do this for a living. If they cause trouble to you, their employer, their reputation will be ruined. Who will dare to hire them in the future?"

As soon as Liu Dongjia sat down, he started talking incessantly, his eyes and eyebrows showing his worry and concern for Shi Liu.

Shi Liu couldn't help but be touched. "Thank you Uncle Liu for your concern for me. Don't worry, Uncle Liu, I will be more careful." She also cherishes her life very much.

In fact, she sometimes felt a little regretful. If she didn't have the Five Secret Records, she wouldn't have confronted the rebels, wouldn't have caused so much trouble, and more than a hundred lives would not have been lost in Erli Village.

But that's fate, the butterfly effect, one thing after another.

Because the evil bandits from Rongjiang County sneaked into Luoshui and invaded Xiahe Village, they had to rise up in resistance for the sake of the villagers and their homes. This is how the reputation of the No. 1 Village in the World rose.

This attracted the desperate Wu Ping and his seven companions...

She had to fight for the Five Internal Secret Records that were handed to her. If she didn't, would those rebels who came here after smelling the clue let her go?
Rather than being killed and robbed of her treasure by the rebels, she had no choice but to fight hard.

She couldn't bear to see the treasure fall into the hands of those rebels and use them to rebel and seize the world.

How can such a peaceful and prosperous world be destroyed by those sewer rats who are afraid of the light?

Evil cannot prevail over good, she believed that sooner or later, the rebels would be wiped out.

Liu Dongjia was still worried. "How about hiring more people? The head of the Zhenwei Escort Agency in the state capital, Geng Zhong, is quite capable, and his escorts are all good fighters. Why don't you just hire them to protect you, and then do it after you have wiped out the rebels."

Liu Dongjia was worried about such a good girl, fearing that she would be harmed by the rebels.

Although we don't know when the rebels can be defeated, and we don't know how long it will take to hire a security company, which will certainly cost a lot, we cannot save this money, as lives are more important.

Shi Liu couldn't help but laugh, "Our Weifeng Express also has a business as an escort agency. If we hire someone else, people outside will know that we don't trust our own escort agency. Who would hire our Weifeng Express then?"

Liu Dongjia said: "Our Weifeng Express mainly accepts the business of transporting goods and sending messages. In the past few months, the business in this area has been good, but no one has asked us to escort.

Besides, this job is too dangerous and our team is not really suitable for it.

Just listen to me and hire Zhenwei Escort Agency."

Pomegranate cherishes life and listens to advice.

Hearing this, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to Uncle Liu."

Liu Dongjia laughed and said, "I am more familiar with the state capital. I will ask Liu Wu to help you make the trip."

"Then I'll trouble you, Uncle Liu." Shi Liu bowed and expressed his gratitude.
