Back to Datang with weapons

Chapter 96
If he wasn't the person involved, Yu Haojie would definitely think that these people are the trustees he specially recruited - isn't it really awesome?

There is no need for him to speak, these few people have comforted everyone, which saved his tongue, and at the same time he could not help but scorn in his heart:
These country bumpkins who have never seen the world are really easy to get rid of!

"This old man is still insightful!"

Yu Haojie bowed his hands to the last person who spoke just now, and then said to old man Zhou: "Old Zhou, you see that everyone agrees now, so let's settle for two taels of silver?"

"Humph!"

Old man Zhou seemed to have been betrayed, his eyes were full of anger and unwillingness, he shook his sleeves, and left with a livid face.

"Hey, I'm getting old, and my mind is not enlightened..."

"Yes, this old man's temperament is not small..."

"He doesn't have much wine in his house, why are he so excited? What if the price of these two taels of silver disappears?"

"........."

Yu Haojie didn't take the time to listen to the gossip of these people there, he can't wait to put away the wine right now, because just now he heard what old man Zhou said, that businessman from Bangbang planned to bring money tomorrow?
Or was it because they were driving in such a hurry just now, did they go back to get the money?
Fortunately, he has already ordered in advance that as long as he is not there, even if the foreign businessman has gone, he will not be able to open the door of the wing room!
Although he felt a little more at ease, Yu Haojie was still worried that the night would be long and dreamy, so he had to make a quick decision here!

"Everyone, since everyone agrees to the price, it's not too late. Let's charge the bar now?"

"Master Yu, do you still follow the old rules? Do you have enough money?"

After all, it is two taels of silver a catty, and the peasant households of them have at least a few thousand catties of turbid wine, so if you calculate it, you need thousands of taels of silver!
With such a large amount, I don't know if he brought it...

Yu Haojie sneered, and then ordered the housekeeper to have the big box removed from the carriage.

It turned out that before going out, Yu Haojie asked the housekeeper to prepare a box of silver taels in advance, just to deal with this unexpected need. It seems that as a businessman, Yu Haojie's keen sense of smell is still okay...

…………

Putting the box in front of everyone, Yu Haojie opened the box in a bully manner, and almost - blinded everyone's staring eyes.

"Wow, that's a lot of money!"

Hearing everyone's exclamation, Yu Haojie contemptuously thought, they are all a bunch of turkeys, just a few thousand taels of silver is enough to scare them?
At this time, Yu Haojie probably forgot that he was scared by the foreign businessman's big iron box of silver in the morning...

"I brought the money, but when we collected the wine before, Zhou Butou or other yamen servants did the justice. Today..."

If it had been left to the original, Yu Haojie would not have taken the initiative to bring up this matter, because it turned out that the farmers were the ones who asked for justice because they were afraid that he would go back on his word.

But now it's the opposite. He's afraid that these farmers will be jealous after seeing him sell for five taels of silver a catty, and then go back on their word!So naturally I hope that the people in the government will be fair here.

"I seemed to see Catcher Zhou in the morning, but he didn't seem to be working in the government today."

Someone in the crowd said something.

Hearing this, Yu Haojie was so happy, thinking that the things he had done in the past few days had gone too smoothly, as if God was helping him!

"Go to Zhou's hometown and invite Zhou Butou over!"

Yu Haojie hurriedly ordered the boy to hire someone. At this moment, his mind was already filled with the tens of thousands of taels of silver, and he had no time to think about other things, such as conspiracy theories.

…………

Zhou Butou is sitting and chatting with Zhou old man in the small yard of Zhou's house at the moment, and looking at Zhou old man's smiling face, he is completely different from the angry old man with bruised veins just now.

"Father, that Mr. Zhang is really good at predicting things, but I don't know if the next thing will be as he expected."

"Looking at the current form, I guess it can't be wrong."

The old man Zhou stroked his gray beard and said with a smile.

It was the first time Zhou Butou saw such a miraculous young man, and he couldn't help sighing: "Father, do you think that Mr. Zhang is a good guy or a bad guy? How did he come up with such a bad idea?"

"Hehe, a bad guy, that's not the case. After all, he is doing it for his own benefit, and Yu Haojie is really not a good guy. Isn't the money he withheld from our Wang Zhuang these years still small? This time it is also counted. Teach him a lesson!"

The old man Zhou seemed to have thought of something again, squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "But he is a good guy - I guess he is not good enough. When I saw that kid for the first time, I saw his wicked eyebrows and eyes. Hehe, I knew he was nothing. nice one……"

"Captain Zhou! Are you at home?"

Hearing the shouts coming from far and near outside, the two looked at each other with joy in their eyes, Zhou Butou stood up immediately, and said loudly: "Come in!"

And the old man Zhou changed his face, and in an instant he had a livid face with bulging veins...

…………

"Ah~~Ah~Ah~"

Zhang Twelve, who was sitting in the carriage, sneezed several times, rubbed his nose, and muttered to himself, "Who is talking about labor and capital!"

Hearing a "wow", the fat driver outside the carriage stopped the carriage, and then said loudly: "Mr. Zhang, have you seen this?"

Zhang Twelve, who was also Mr. Chasney, stepped out of the carriage and looked at the surrounding lush woods, and there was a trickle beside it. The city wall of Taizhou was no longer in sight.

"Very well, just here."

As they spoke, they called out the short Fanbang in the car——Lu San. The two came to the river, took off their clothes, and threw them into the river. The two naked men jumped into the clear river. Here, I started to be shameless - take a shower.

It turned out that after returning to Taizhou City from Wangzhuang Village, Zhang Twelve and Lu San sat outside the carriage, and then asked the fat coachman to drive along the bustling streets of Taizhou City.

Like Yu Haojie, the common people in Taizhou City have only heard of the Fanbang merchants in Jingzhou, the capital of the emperor, but have they ever seen it with their own eyes?

As a result, wherever the carriage went, the streets were crowded with people watching the excitement, almost to the point where the alleys were empty.

In order to achieve this effect, Zhang Twelve saw that it was almost done, so he ordered the fat coachman to drive in the direction of Taizhou City Gate.

At the gate of Taizhou City, Zhang Twelve stood up and waved to the crowds of onlookers around him, as if a big leader was inspecting people's conditions.

"Old bye!"

With the end of Mr. Chasney-Mr. Zhang’s last Chinglish sentence, the carriage of the Fanbang businessman quickly passed the gate of Taizhou, leaving Taizhou with only glorious legends...
