Earth Immortal Righteous Path

Chapter 321 White Fox Cub
"I didn't expect so much money to be hidden in the magistrate's house. It's a pity that these treasures and antiques can't be seen, and they are too heavy to be taken casually. I have to pick some objects that are easy to get rid of, and these bank notes."

Ding Dang counted the harvest of his night talk about the magistrate's back house.

He talked about the county government last night, wandered around a few warehouses a few times, it was really an eye-opener.

How about getting promoted and getting rich? Isn't being promoted the same as getting rich?

In less than two years since he took office, the magistrate has accumulated a net worth of 10,000+ taels. This is not counting those things that are not easy to realize, but there is so much in cash alone.

"Is this the way you came up with to make money?"

Ding Yuchen didn't say anything about his younger brother's theft, and strictly speaking, she didn't have much awareness of the laws of the world.

"This kind of thing is inseparable. It's okay to be in a hurry, but you can't count on it when the days are passing."

"Why don't you use the money to buy a few stores. I've inquired about a few stores in the east of the city that seem to be planning to change hands."

Ding Yuchen looked at the gold leaves, silver notes, gold bars and other belongings on the plate, and roughly estimated a number.

"The price of gold has risen. These gold leaves are worth 2000 taels. With the silver notes, there can be more than 5000 taels. I have never seen gold bars, so I can't set a price, but no matter how cheap it is, it will not be less than 5000 taels. One place is ten thousand taels of silver, nine cents of silver."

Gold is rarely in circulation nowadays, and only gold bars and bricks are used unless it is a large-scale transaction. Usually, gold leaves are more used.

Nine fen silver is silver taels with a purity of [-]%, and most banks and pawnshops use this kind of circulating silver taels.

The exchange rate between the silver price and the gold price changes every day, roughly around 160 to [-], sometimes it is [-] to [-], and sometimes it is [-] to [-].

So the valuation is vague.

Both of these are actually very heavy, and Ding Dang can't carry too much by himself, and the time is short, most of them are bank notes brought back.

It's a pity that these banknotes seem to be many, but the face value is not large. Most of them are in denominations of one hundred taels, and there are also ten taels, five taels, or even one tael. The sum is not as much as imagined.

It is not so easy to withdraw cash for large-value bank notes that exceed one hundred taels. You must bring the seal and signature of the head of the household before you can withdraw them.

Banks save money, but they need to spend money.

The so-called money bank is a place where money is kept. The head of the household deposits money in and pays fees on time.

"It's good for my sister to make up her own mind about these things. I don't understand these things anyway."

"You...I told you to study more. You are such an old man, and you can't even manage accounts."

"Study has nothing to do with the accountant. How many of those sour scholars understand accounts, why don't they invite the accountant?"

When it comes to reading, Ding Dang loses interest.

He lay listlessly on the table, like a wilted vegetable.

"Is reading really that annoying? Why do I find it interesting!"

Ding Yuchen asked curiously.

She is very interested in human poetry, drama and various books, and she bought a copy of all the books available in the market.

"It's very boring. Those poems, songs, operas, and operas are all moaning for nothing. Only the history books are interesting. It's just that there are only miscellaneous records of unofficial history in the bookstore. There is not even a single official history, so I have to read it as a novel."

"As for the sayings of sages and sages, I can't read a word of them. Those so-called sages are not as good as those guests we met in the water palace. A few good books that catch the eye."

Ding Dang got up, walked outside, and said:

"I had some unexpected gains last night. I have to go out of the city today. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back until tomorrow. If you have something to do here, sister, you should deal with it yourself. The magistrate is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he will probably make something happen. "

"I see, you should be careful on the road and try to kill as little as possible, so as not to offend the local city god."

When the brother and sister practiced the way of sword immortality at the beginning, they were like Kaifeng's sharp weapon. When the murderous intent is strong, so it is said that they should try to kill as little as possible.

……

About a hundred miles outside the city, on an unnamed hill, trees and flowers grow everywhere.

It was autumn, and it was chilling, with yellowed leaves falling all over the ground.

On the trail into the mountain, a group of people carried bows and arrows, led hounds, and stood with falcons on their shoulders. Behind them were a group of peasants. Hundreds of people entered the mountain mightily.

"Listen well, the magistrate has said that this time, as long as the white fox is white all over, it is best to be alive. After the matter is completed, each of you will have at least 20 taels of silver and three gold leaves. If you can catch a live fox Yes, double the reward."

"You are all the best hunters in the neighborhood. I know you all have your own unique skills. You can't hide your secrets this time. Whether you can have a good year depends on this trip!"

The magistrate's confidant Ding, now also changed into hunting clothes, looked like a big butler, walking in front of the team, giving orders to a dozen hunters.

"It's okay to chase foxes, who here doesn't know how to chase foxes? But are there really white foxes here?"

"Foxes with no variegated body are all different species. They are rare. I have never heard of them in Maolin."

"I have been hunting here for nearly ten years. I have never seen an white fox, only a red fox, and the coat color is not pure. There are always variegated colors."

"Even if there are foxes with white fur, it's impossible for them to have no mottled colors..."

The hunters complained one after another, the white fox, and the white fox with no variegated fur, is really too difficult. How many years have I met one!

"My magistrate asked Liu Banxian to do a calculation. There must be white foxes here. Just do your best."

This confidant servant had an expression of pride, and self-servingly took on the banner of the old blind man.

Even though the magistrate didn't say clearly that it was the blind old man who pointed out the location of the maze when he ordered him, how could he not guess it?

When the master saw Blind Liu, he asked me to bring someone here to look for the fox. Who else could figure it out except that godly blind man?
Need to say more?

Thinking proudly, this servant was showing off in front of people again, bragging that this Liu Banxian was heaven and earth, and several hunters were stunned when they heard it.

Poor old blind man, all his exhortations were in vain.

A palm-sized little fox quietly slipped away from the grass by the side of the road, with its forelegs off the ground, stood up, and had almost heard what this group of people said.

After a while, it followed a path known only to itself, circled a few times, and entered the cave.

Chirping chirped a few times, and the little fox called anxiously into the cave.

Soon, a small white fox cub slowly crawled out.

The whole body is snow white, and there is no mottled hair.

　Remember in Fengshen Yanyi, the fate of the person who burned the nine-tailed fox and a nest of foxes to death?
