Chapter 22 Game (Please read it later~)
"Aunt Zhang."
Looking at the old woman, Chen Pingan said with a smile.
"Young man Chen, is there something wrong?"
Chen Pingan smiled slightly and immediately stated his purpose. He said he needed some sand and gravel, and thought that Uncle Zhang should have a way to get it.
"I was wondering what it was, it turned out to be this! Don't worry, little brother Chen, I will tell your uncle Zhang when he comes back."
Aunt Zhang agreed readily.
Hearing this, Chen Pingan took out some small change from his pocket and wanted to give it to Aunt Zhang. However, the other party refused to accept it.
"We are neighbors, so why bother talking about money? It's just some worthless sand and gravel, so just be at ease."
Aunt Zhang refused again and again.
Chen Ping'an couldn't persuade the other party, so he gave up for the time being. He was thinking about buying some meat and vegetables another day.
"Young man from the Chen family, would you like to come in and sit down?"
"No, I have something to do at home." Chen Ping'an shook his hand to refuse.
The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and then Chen Ping'an left Uncle Zhang's house.
"The young man from the Chen family has really made great progress!"
Aunt Zhang watched Chen Ping'an leave and sighed sincerely.
In his response just now, the other party behaved extremely appropriately and was very experienced in dealing with people. He did not look like a young man under the age of twenty at all.
Now that the sand and gravel issue was settled, Chen Pingan felt relieved.
Next, all we have to do is wait for Master Xiaohu to come and pay off the debt.
The morning passed quickly. Chen Pingan went out with Chen Erya for a rare occasion. They bought some vegetables and half a pork leg.
Chen Erya felt quite distressed when she saw the money she had spent. However, considering that her brother was currently practicing martial arts, which consumed a lot of energy, he might not be able to bear it without meat.
Chen Erya didn't mention anything about saving more money to help her brother get married.
Considering that Little Tiger Lord might come to visit at any time, the brother and sister did not roast the half pork leg at noon. Instead, they hid it and saved it for the evening or tomorrow.
Today's lunch: a plate of scrambled eggs, a plate of steamed pumpkin, a bowl of vegetarian shredded pork soup and two bowls of white rice, one large and one small.
"Brother, how did you get together fourteen taels of silver?"
While eating, Chen Erya asked curiously, her eyes sparkling with admiration.
"Brother naturally has a way."
Chen Pingan pretended to be proud. He didn't mention the details. Some things were enough for him to know. There was no need to burden Chen Erya.
"Brother is awesome."
Chen Erya was praising him with all her heart.
The brother and sister finished their lunch happily. After Chen Ping'an's final cleanup, they ate the whole meal.
After the meal, the two of them worked together and quickly washed the dishes.
The two chatted casually. Just when Chen Pingan was hesitating whether to practice the iron shirt first.
There was a knock on the door.
boom! boom! boom!
"Chen family boy, the ten days are up, it's time to pay back the money. Open the door!"
The voice was a familiar one. It belonged to Liu'er, the confidant who followed Master Xiaohu.
"Here it comes!" Chen Ping'an's expression was stern.
As long as he could pay off the 14 taels of silver owed to the Hutou Gang today, along with the principal and interest, he and his daughter could live a clean and comfortable life.
squeak!
The door to the courtyard was quickly opened by Chen Pingan.
"Little Tiger is here! Come in quickly."
With a smile on his face, Chen Pingan welcomed the people in front of the door into the yard.
There were three people who came today, all of them were familiar faces to Chen Pingan.
A little tiger, a Liu'er, and a ruffian named Feizi.
Before, Chen Pingan had not yet entered the martial arts, and he could not sense it clearly. Now that his Qi and blood had reached the first level, he took a quick look and found that several people present had actually entered the martial arts.
If you can get started in martial arts, you will be considered an expert!
It's not that the Tiger Head Gang is so powerful that even the gangsters under them are of such level. It's that Xiaohu Ye is a high-ranking member of the Tiger Head Gang, one of the three Dharma protectors, and a confidant who follows him, so naturally he has such a status.
Just like Liu'er, Feizi is also a small leader in the Hutou Gang.
"Little Tiger, come and have some water."
Chen Pingan poured the clean water that he had prepared earlier into a bowl and asked Little Tiger to drink it.
His family was poor, with no teacups or tea leaves, so he could only use water instead. But before the water even entered Little Tiger's mouth, Liu'er pushed it away.
"What the hell!? Who are you, Little Tiger? Why are you here to drink water?"
Looking at the clear water splashing on the wooden table and flowing on the table top, Chen Pingan still had a smile on his face.
"My humble abode is simple, and I only have some clean water. I am sorry to treat Master Little Tiger unfairly."
"It's good to know!"
Liu'er snorted coldly.
"Sixth son." Little Tiger waved his hand. "Young man from the Chen family, I'm sure you know the purpose of coming here today."
"I know, I know." Chen Ping'an smiled and spread out his sleeves, using them as a rag to wipe away the clear water that had just flowed.
After wiping off the water, Chen Pingan took out a cloth bag from his arms and poured all the silver in the bag onto the table.
Then, in front of Xiaohu Ye and others, he began to count carefully.
"One tael, three taels, five and a half taels, six taels, seven and a half taels."
The silver on the table was all loose change, and Chen Pingan counted them carefully.
"Thirteen taels, fourteen taels! Master Xiaohu, here are fourteen taels of silver in total, take a look."
Looking at the silver on the table, Master Xiaohu nodded slightly.
However, before he could say anything, Liu'er beside him was dancing happily.
"Let me see if there is any fake silver."
Liu'er grabbed the silver on the table and began to check them one by one.
Although the amount of fake silver circulating in the market today is very small, it does not mean that it does not exist.
However, he checked one by one and did not find any fake silver.
"Consider yourself lucky!"
Liu Er glared at Chen Ping An fiercely. He didn't know where his anger came from, and he was venting it on Chen Ping An. He didn't know if it was because of that day.
"Chen family boy, you have managed to collect fourteen taels. That's really good!"
While speaking, there was not much expression on Little Tiger's face, and it was unclear what he meant.
"After receiving my monthly salary, I borrowed some money from my colleagues in the Pacification Office, and only then did I collect enough money to pay back Master Xiaohu."
Chen Pingan said with a smile.
"Colleagues! Young man from the Chen family, it seems that you are quite popular in the Pacification Division!"
Master Xiaohu narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a forced smile.
"Haha, it's not bad. It's all thanks to my colleagues. Old Chen left me some connections."
Chen Pingan had a smile on his face and spoke meaningfully.
“It’s great to have someone to take care of me!”
Master Xiaohu supported himself on the wooden table with one hand and slowly stood up.
"In this way, your fourteen taels of silver, including the principal and interest, will be repaid. Come on, give him the receipt. Don't say that Master Xiaohu doesn't follow the rules."
Hearing this, the rascal named Feizi behind Master Xiaohu took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Chen Pingan.
"Master Xiaohu is so merciful. Thank you, Master Xiaohu."
Chen Ping'an took the receipt for the debt and his face was full of smiles.
"Let's go."
Master Xiaohu said hello and walked out of the courtyard gate, followed closely by Feizi. Liu'er gave Chen Pingan a fierce look and followed him.
"Oh, right."
Little Tiger walked to the gate of the courtyard, as if he remembered something.
"You also know that my Tiger Head Gang collects monthly fees from the surrounding streets and alleys. The neighbors also give us face. We have always cooperated. Before, you still owed me the money, and I never mentioned the monthly fees. It was also a way of taking care of you.
Now that the debt has been paid off, there is no need for any special care. I will waive your monthly payment this month. You can start paying from next month."
Hearing this, Chen Pingan clasped his hands slightly, with an unchanged smile on his face.
"In that case, Ping An would like to thank Master Xiao Hu for taking care of him for so long."
"Not bad! This kid is teachable. Haha, let's go."
Amidst loud laughter, Little Tiger Master led his men away, and their backs soon disappeared around the corner of the street.
Chen Pingan lowered his head slightly and looked at the wooden table. On the table, where Little Tiger had just pressed his palm, a thick palm print suddenly appeared.
