Rebirth in 1980: I pretend to be a pig, eat the tiger and marry the chief

The old man sighed and said to the other villagers: "Go home and take a look. Bring them whatever food and drink you have at home. It's still a long way to the devil's capital!"

Tang Zheng and others were shocked. It was good that these people didn't charge them tolls, but they actually wanted to get them something? ? ?

After the old man gave the order, everyone dispersed. Some brought radishes, some cornmeal, pots and pans, and some directly stuffed money into Wen Lan's hand.

There is not much money, only 5 cents and 10 cents, and the largest denomination is 50 cents.

"Young man, you have to be strong, your illness will definitely get better..."

"Brother, I see that your heaven is plump and your earth is round and round...it looks like you have a long life. Maybe it was a misdiagnosis. You must be strong to survive!"

Wen Lan was quite angry with Tang Zheng at first, thinking that no matter what she said, Xiao Beiqi would teach her a lesson, and if that didn't work, he would shake off Tang Zheng's bad record. But now, she was a little touched. What was going on? ?

Just when Wen Lan was about to speak, his stomach suddenly growled.

It was already afternoon, and they were just on their way and hadn't had lunch yet.

The old man noticed Wen Lan's embarrassment, clasped his hands behind his back and straightened his chest: "You guys haven't had lunch yet, so come to my house to eat, and then go on your way after you're full!"

Just when Wen Lan was about to refuse, Tang Zheng said, "Okay, thank you, sir. I really can't repay you for your great kindness!"

Wen Lan moved the hand covering his stomach up to cover his heart. He felt like Tang Zheng was about to make him vomit blood.

"Okay, okay, if you have time, go to my house, help with the work, and cook a meal for a few young people!"

Several women agreed happily. Some went to gather onions in their gardens, some cut leeks, and some went to the well to fetch water.

Tang Zheng took Xiao Beiqi's arm, and they walked toward the old man's house surrounded by others.

Xiao Beiqi really didn't understand what Tang Zheng was doing, so he quickly walked up to her and lowered his voice: "I'm not giving you more than three hundred. Don't be reluctant to spend it. Let's go to a restaurant to eat?"

Most importantly, he was really afraid of causing unnecessary trouble. In the end, the meal was not finished, and they were almost eaten by these tough villagers.

As Tang Zheng walked and looked at the situation in the village, he felt that every tree and path here seemed inexplicably familiar.

Tang Zheng held Xiao Beiqi's hand and comforted him in turn: "What if there is any unexpected gain."

After riding in the car for so long, she felt like her butt was not even her own, and it felt good to move around.

Besides, she was also curious about the reason for this inexplicable feeling of familiarity.

After walking for a while, Tang Zheng discovered the treasure. She pointed to the big green leaves on the roadside and said, "Uncle, isn't this Isatis root? Why don't you dig it up and sell it for money?"

The old man glanced at the green plants on the ground and said puzzledly: "Selling money? No one is collecting it. They are everywhere in our village. This thing grows again and again. It seriously affects the growth of crops and is annoying to death." Got it!"

Tang Zheng's eyes lit up, this opportunity to make money is coming!

If she remembers correctly, there will be an influenza outbreak this winter, and isatis root has been sold at a sky-high price, with a pound selling for thirty yuan.

Tang Zheng hesitated for a moment and said, "I do know an old Chinese medicine doctor who collects this kind of medicinal material."

When everyone heard this, they immediately gathered towards Tang Zheng, who was all shocked.

The old man asked: "Do you really charge it? How much does it cost per pound?"

Tang Zheng thought for a while: "The dried medicinal materials with leaves and roots cost five yuan per catty. When the weather gets cold, the price will be more expensive."

As soon as Tang Zheng finished speaking, the villagers immediately started digging.

When the old man saw this, he raised his foot and kicked a young man who was sticking out his butt to dig out isatis roots: "Whatever you grab, whatever you grab, just be honest!"

The young man who was kicked almost felt like a dog. He said excitedly: "Second Grandpa, haven't you heard? One pound is worth five yuan. If I dig a hundred pounds, I can get a wife!"

As soon as he said this, everyone laughed.

The old man glared at the young man and looked around at the villagers present: "You are all so stupid. You don't know whether this thing is going to happen or not. Do you believe anything I say?"

Tang Zheng laughed dryly: "What I said must be true. It's Huayang City. It's a bit far away. Let's discuss how to pick up the goods then."

Some people were a little unhappy after hearing this: "This is really not going to happen, Huayang, we don't even know where it is!"

The old man was silent for a moment: "Let's talk about it then."

These were just words to send Tang Zheng away.

Tang Zheng thought for a while and asked: "Suppose you dig up all the isatis roots in the village and on the mountain, how many kilograms can they weigh?"

The old man calculated: "You can still have one thousand eight hundred catties."

This thing grows very fast. Once you dig it, another one will grow. Now it is all over the mountains and plains.

"Then don't just let it go."

Tang Zheng couldn't help but blurt out. She didn't want to miss the opportunity to make money just like this: "You guys wait a few days, about a week. After I confirm it, I will call you and pay you the deposit. What do you think?"

"are you crazy?"

Wen Lan, who had always been angry, really didn't understand what kind of monster Tang Zheng was. A restaurant owner turned to collecting herbal medicine. What kind of joke were you kidding?

Tang Zheng glared at Wen Lan: "Don't worry about it."

Seeing that Wen Lan's face was really ugly, Tang Zheng came close to Wen Lan and lowered his voice: "When we get to the magic city, I will pick a gift for you to give Xiao Ma, and I will make sure she likes you. How about that?"

A glint flashed in Wen Lan's eyes. If this was really the case, then he would be willing to be used by Tang Zheng.

The old man looked at Tang Zheng with some disbelief: "What you said is true. Do you really want to collect our medicinal materials?"

Tang Zheng nodded: "Really."

Tang Zheng said, approaching Gao Bing, who was dressed in casual clothes: "This is my cousin. My cousin is a police officer. I will use his identity as a guarantee. If I lie, you will report him."

With that said, Tang Zheng said to Gao Bing: "Cousin, show them your public security ID."

Gao Bing glanced at Xiao Beiqi, and then looked at Tang Zheng a little dissatisfied.

The meaning is obvious, you sold me like this, did you get my consent?

Besides, your boyfriend is not only a soldier, but also a battalion commander. Why don't you use him as a guarantee?

Sensing Gao Bing's dissatisfaction, Tang Zheng explained in a low voice: "My boyfriend sometimes performs secret missions, which is inconvenient. Don't worry, I won't treat you badly after this matter is settled!"

Tang Zheng paused and continued: "When we get to the magic city, I will choose a gift for you that your wife will like. I will ensure that your wife will treat you as her beloved!"

Gao Bing's face was a little distorted, and he turned to Xiao Beiqi and said, "Your girlfriend seems to be really not normal."

Did you get any stimulation when you were kidnapped by human traffickers?

How could a young girl say such a thing? Even a person like him blushed.

Still a sweetheart?

Tang Zheng just thought that he could quickly get a handle on Gao Bing and gain the trust of the villagers. He didn't hold back his words for a while, but he also regretted it after he finished speaking.

Xiao Beiqi said nothing, and his expression was a little unclear.

At this point, Gao Bing impatiently took out his ID, but did not open it.

In fact, it doesn't matter if he reveals his identity. Isn't it like this when he goes out to handle cases? Let's just treat it as handling a case.

However, he has been having trouble with his wife recently. It would be nice if he could have something good to comfort her.

When the villagers saw the certificate in his hand, they were all frightened, backed away in horror, and the timid ones ran away.

"Second uncle, what should we do? Isn't it because they are making a big fuss and are here to arrest us?" A woman asked the old man in a tearful voice.
