On the road to escape famine, others ate vegetables but I ate meat

Chapter 8: Life-saving grace should be repaid with money
Lan Yue collected money along the way, and with Xiao Qi's advice, she suddenly became a billionaire.

However, one hundred million is not enough for her to buy things in the mall. Buying just one is not enough. It would be best if she could keep buying.

Lan Yue sighed, and with her sensitive ears she heard someone fighting ten meters ahead.

She crouched down and ran up a tree. Even at night, her eyes were like detectors. She could see at a glance a group of people fighting evenly under the moonlight.

One of them was all dark, while the other was dressed decently. It looked like they were hired killers.

"Nangong Heng, tonight is the day you die!"

"Oh! What a wild idea!"

Clang clang!
The collision between hidden weapons and weapons suddenly turned into a beautiful melody.

People wearing fancy clothes were immediately put at a disadvantage.

"Nangong Heng, it's hard to defeat four enemies at once. If you are so stubborn, you can go to hell and continue to be the stubborn prince!"

The other party made a harsh remark, and Nangong Heng was accidentally hit in the shoulder by the other party's hidden weapon, which almost hit his heart.

Nangong Heng's eyes dimmed and murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but just when he was about to use his internal force, he didn't want to spit out blood.

The other party saw Nangong Heng half-kneeling on the ground and pounced on him, intending to chop off his head with one knife.

"what!"

After a few shrill screams, dozens of men in black were killed.

Nangong Heng, who had originally made up his mind to die, opened his eyes in confusion.

Looking at the person lying on the ground in front of him, he was confused.

what happened?

Who saved him?

A contemptuous voice sounded.

"Tsk!"

"Who?"

Nangong Heng instantly became alert. Could it be that someone else wanted to kill him?
Nangong Heng’s eyes went dark, and a figure approached from not far away.

He frowned slightly. The person who came was a girl wearing a summer linen dress and her hair was tied in a high ponytail.

She looked like she wasn't even of marriageable age yet, but her eyes were firm and sharp.

"you……"

"There is no point in talking any more. The grace of saving my life should be repaid with money. Just give me the money."

Nangong Heng: “…”

Can you save me first and then talk about the money?

"Save me first, the hidden weapon is poisonous." Nangong Heng sat up with difficulty. He didn't expect that this little girl was such a money-grubber.

Lan Yue: "Oh, this is another price."

Nangong Heng: "...How much? Can't I give it to you?"

"Okay, just give me one thousand taels of silver for this. After all, I think you are either rich or noble." Lan Yue exchanged for the detoxification pill from the system. "This one of mine is very expensive. It can cure all kinds of poisons. The materials used to make it are also very rare. It's really not expensive to charge you one thousand taels of silver."

Nangong Heng took the antidote and swallowed it in one gulp.

It’s not that he trusts the person in front of him, but if he doesn’t get treatment he will die immediately, so he has to try his best.

After taking the antidote, Nangong Heng instantly felt the pain from the wounds on his body go away. He quickly forced out the hidden weapon, and his internal strength was restored, except that his face was a little pale.

"Thank you for saving my life, young lady. I will wait for you when I return to Shangjing..."

"Wait a minute, you don't have any money on you?" Lan Yue didn't want to make a verbal promise. Who knew if this guy would go back on his word.

"This... is not that much." Nangong Heng thought for a moment and took out a jade pendant from his body, "This is my token of love. Take it. When you arrive in Shangjing in the future, go to a gold and silver shop and find the owner."

Lan Yue took the jade pendant and looked at it. There was a word "Heng" on it. Could it be that she saved a prince?
Based on my years of experience in writing novels, it is most likely true. "Okay, your name is Nangong Heng, right?" Lan Yue put the jade pendant into her space, "I remember, my last name is Lan, and my given name is Yueyue."

Blue Moon?

"Okay, I remember."

Lan Yue glanced at Nangong Heng, then stood up and left.

Saving a prince is not sure whether it is a blessing or a curse, but considering that the other party is so rich, it’s not too much for her to accept some money from him reluctantly, right?

After Lan Yue left, Nangong Heng immediately sent out a flare, and soon his men arrived.

"My subordinate is late, please punish me, my lord!"

"It's okay, clean up the people and go back to Beijing." Nangong Heng didn't expect that his good brother could not wait and wanted to kill him outside. No matter whether he was interested in that position or not, he could now lick the other party's choke.

After eating and drinking her fill in the space, Lan Yue took the two pheasants back to her camping place.

When we came back, most of them were resting and some were still cooking.

Gu Yan had been waiting for Lan Yue to come back, and he felt relieved when he saw her.

"Have your sisters gone to rest?"

Gu Yan nodded and saw the pheasant in her hand. "I'll leave half of the roast chicken for you. It's still hot. Do you want to eat it?"

Lan Yue threw the pheasant into the carriage, washed her hands with water, and then sat down by the fire with half of the chicken still left on the rack.

Lan Yue took it down. Even though she was full, how could she not eat it when she saw the delicious meat?

After finishing the chicken, Lan Yue drank some water, rinsed her mouth, and then found a place to rest.

Gu Yan couldn't hold on any longer and leaned against the carriage door to rest.

The night passed peacefully.

When it was just getting light in the early morning, some people got up early to cook.

When Lan Yue came back from collecting firewood, Gu Yan woke up.

"Just some porridge in the morning?"

Gu Yan nodded. It was not good to eat meat every day, so it was better to have something light in the morning.

Gu Xue and Liu also woke up. The four of them boiled water in a pot, put rice in, and added some minced meat to cook some meat porridge.

There are not many people in the team who can afford to eat such good food. Some people are jealous, but they also know they can't compete, and it's good enough for them to have something to eat.

Lan Yue found an excuse to go to the bathroom and went into the woods. After observing that there was no one around, she went into the space to brush her teeth and wash her face, then went to the toilet before leaving the space.

In troubled times, one's face cannot be too clean. Lan Yue found some fine mud and smeared it on her face and neck. Her skin was originally fair, and she had to smear it to make it darker. It was too difficult for her who loved cleanliness.

When Lan Yue returned, Liu and the others had already prepared breakfast and were waiting for the porridge to be cooked.

"Eat some bread first to fill your stomach."

Lan Yue took the cake without hesitation and sat aside to eat it.

Looking around, Lan Yue saw some poor families where each person only had half a cake. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Wars, natural disasters, and we the common people are the ones who suffer.

"Grandma, I want to eat meat!"

In Wang Dahua's family, Li Fugui started clamoring for meat early in the morning.

You know what, this little rascal is so fat and white that even the adults in his family don’t look as good as him. If he wasn’t a child from a poor family, just looking at his fat body, you would think he is a young master from a wealthy family.

Everyone in the village knew how much Wang Dahua doted on her grandson. So early in the morning, he started clamoring for meat. Wang Dahua had no choice but to ask her eldest daughter-in-law to cut some meat and cook it for Li Fugui.

The adults in the family had complaints but dared not say anything and could only eat pickled vegetable cakes with their daughters.

　It doesn't matter whether you save him or not, what's more important is...
