Traveling through ancient times as a hunter

Chapter 21 They must have lost money!

Cheng Duo didn't want to meddle in other people's business, so he threw the ID card back to Meng Ji first, then took out the jade pendant from his purse, and asked the two people opposite him: "Do you want this jade pendant? It seems that the material is not bad, who are you?" Sell ​​him if you want."

Cheng Duo asked this casually, but he was actually quite embarrassed, as if he was buying and selling for the sake of saving his life.Although he had told Meng Ji that the two were even, the other party obviously didn't think so...

But beyond Cheng Duo's expectation, Meng Ji's eyes immediately changed when he saw the jade pendant: "Where did you get this jade pendant?"

Cheng Duo was inexplicable: "I touched it from the leader Rong Ren the day I rescued you! Why, what's wrong with this jade pendant?"

Wei Ling looked in disbelief, and immediately turned to stare at Meng Ji.

Meng Ji also wanted to raise his hand to cover his face.He should have thought earlier that Wu Gu's identity jade pendant was taken away by Cheng Duo.He had made such a guess when he went to the mysterious person before, but unfortunately he couldn't find it...

He was injured so badly that day that Cheng Duo didn't dare to approach the corpse at all, so he didn't expect Cheng Duo to take away this important jade pendant in addition to taking away the silver.

With this thing, they can pretend to be Ugu's subordinates... Although Ugu is dead, the Rong people don't know about it!

"We want this jade pendant, please make a price." Wei Ling said decisively.

"This..." Cheng Duo subconsciously looked at Brother Yong. He was used to informality and was not sensitive to numbers at all.Therefore, after coming to ancient times for so long, I have bought a lot of things, but I am still vague about the prices.

What's more, he has never been in a jade shop, so he doesn't even have a comparison.

Brother Yong doesn't know either!He is a country boy, and he is already very envious when he sees other people wearing silver ornaments on their heads, let alone treasures like gold and jade.

But Cheng Duo asked him for his opinion so seriously, he couldn't help him with anything... Brother Yong was impulsive, gritted his teeth, and said cruelly what he thought was a sky-high price: "50 taels!"

"Deal." Wei Ling immediately agreed.

"..." Brother Yong regretted it, the other party agreed so readily, they must have lost money!

Seeing his pained face, Meng Ji quickly comforted him: "Actually, this jade pendant is worth four to fifty taels at most, because we have other uses, and the little general agreed so happily."

Of course, it is said that it is worth 50 taels. If you get it in Jinyufang or a pawn shop, people will not be able to pay such a high price of 50 taels, so they still make a profit.

But Brother Yong didn't feel that he had made a profit. He had a hunch that if he was taller by ten taels... oh no, 20 taels, that little general would still agree!

Cheng Duo didn't know Yong Ge'er's virtue, and rubbed his head funnyly: "Okay, just accept it when you see it."

Brother Yong gave him an angry look: Who is he doing it for?

Then he took off the big hand angrily, and threw back what Cheng Duo said to him along the way: "Speak as you speak, don't touch your hands!"

After speaking, seeing surprise and embarrassment flash across Cheng Duo's face, I immediately felt refreshed!

But when he turned around and saw Meng Ji and Wei Ling, he suddenly became shy again—forgot that there were other people here!He has learned so much from Cheng Duo that he can even say such things!

Cheng Duo was also a little embarrassed, he clenched his fist and coughed lightly, and said, "Then it's settled, 50 taels."

50 taels is not a small amount, it is impossible for Wei Ling to carry so much money on his back.As for the banknotes, the amount is also very large. They are soldiers who wield knives and guns every day, and if they are worn out on their bodies, they will lose a lot.

So Wei Ling went back to the tent to collect the bank notes, Meng Ji continued to stay with them, taking advantage of this opportunity, Cheng Duo asked him to find Li Da and Li Er.

Meng Ji wanted to pat his chest to promise that he would do his best, but Cheng Duo saw his plan, pressed his hand and said: "Just pay attention when you have time, it's too troublesome to go all the way to find you, how much is it?" Excuse me."

After speaking, he clicked again, which was full of hints.

Meng Ji saw him staring at Brother Yong over there, and thought that one of Li Dali and Li Er was Cheng Duo's "rival in love", but because of the face of the younger brother, he had to help...

So he also blinked at Cheng Duo: "No trouble, no trouble, it's just that our soldiers take a break once every ten days, and the time may be a bit long..."

It will take at least a few months for Cheng Duo and this little brother to get married... In fact, just because of the flirting and flirting between the two, the little brother's heart is obviously on Cheng Duo, he really doesn't need it So narrow-minded.

When Wei Ling came out, the two parties successfully completed the delivery with the jade pendant in one hand and the bank note in the other.

Cheng Duo was very satisfied with the harvest of this trip to Xiling Camp, and left the address of Yang'er Village for Meng Ji, and planned to take Yong Ge'er to leave.

Seeing the opportunity, Wei Ling hurriedly said, "Actually, you are so skilled, have you considered coming to the military camp to make contributions?"

Brother Yong was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then became nervous, Cheng Duo wouldn't agree, right?

Of course Cheng Duo would not agree, and directly refused: "No, I just want to be a hunter."

……

What's wrong with this man, he's so good at killing people, why doesn't he want to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy?Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Meng Ji couldn't understand.

Wei Ling was the same as him, but he frowned and his expression was a little more serious.

Meng Ji thought he couldn't recruit, and felt uncomfortable, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "Let's go back and tell the general about the jade pendant!"

Wei Ling nodded, forget it, don’t think about it if you can’t remember it...

It was almost noon when Cheng Duo and Brother Yong returned to Ershilipo.Cheng Duo got 50 taels of silver for nothing, and with a big wave of his hand, he planned to invite Brother Yong to have a meal at the biggest restaurant in Ershilipo.

But Brother Yong disagreed: "It's not like spending money like that. If you want to eat, I'll make it for you later. I heard from others that the food in restaurants costs tens of pennies. Wen, I can buy several catties of pork! Take it home and make it, and you can still fill up if you have a large amount... You don’t even have land, and you can’t waste it like this if you earn money!”

Cheng Duo had a headache when he read it: "Okay, okay, I won't go, let's go buy rice and meat, okay, you cook for me when you go back!"

A passerby dressed as a young man heard the conversation between the two, and suddenly burst out laughing, and after laughing, he found that the young couple on the opposite side turned their heads to look at him... Especially that guy, he looked tall and big , with a fierce look on his face.

Xie Yuan couldn't laugh anymore, he stammered and said: "Don't get me wrong, I just envy the two virtuous couples who have a good relationship... How about it, why don't you go to my restaurant to eat. I will let the kitchen fill every dish for you , I will give you a discount after eating, what do you two think?"

He originally wanted to say that it was an apology for him to treat guests to their restaurant.But seeing that Cheng Duo's clothes were very ordinary, he was worried that people would find him offensive, so he changed the term.

In fact, he thought too much, if he wanted to say that he was treating guests, Brother Yong would definitely agree.But when he heard the discount, Brother Yong only thought that he was the restaurant's "fan career" and deliberately dragged them in to take advantage of him.

He pulled Cheng Duo vigilantly: "No, we won't eat."

After speaking, as if he was afraid of Cheng Duo's promise, he dragged him away in a hurry, and taught him as he walked: "I have seen this kind of person a lot, and they dress like people, and they say they own a restaurant. Giving discounts to others is actually a liar!"

Cheng Duo nodded in agreement, and boasted: "You are still smart, and you know that you will suffer big losses if you are greedy for petty gains."

Xie Young Master really owns a restaurant Yuan: "..."

Sure enough, Cheng Duo took Brother Yong to buy pork, and the good thing that those timetravelers bought meat and gave away bones did not happen to him.

Raising a pig these days requires not only feeding pig grass, but also wheat bran, beans, corn and other miscellaneous grains.Modern people don't necessarily like to eat these miscellaneous grains, but in ancient times, they were all human rations.

So, every piece of meat on the pig can be sold for money, so what kind of dream is it?

In addition to buying pork, Cheng Duo also bought a hang of lard suet.Brother Yong didn't say anything this time, he bought a stick of lard and could eat it from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, and even put a little in the vegetable dishes to make the dishes more fragrant.

Although Cheng Duo bought a lot, he was rich, and he had prevented Cheng Duo from going to the restaurant before, and if he objected to Cheng Duo, he might get angry... So if you buy a lot, buy more, and you will eat it anyway. In the stomach, it is not a waste.

After buying meat, Cheng Duo went to buy rice and flour.What he ate in the village before was coarse noodles ground with wheat husks, but now he finally saw fine noodles, so of course he wanted to buy them.

The same goes for the rice, although it doesn't look as white and plump as the modern ones, but it's all shelled, and it's guaranteed to be natural and pollution-free.

Cheng Duo also bought a hundred catties. If it wasn't too heavy for the backpack, he could buy twice as much.

Brother Yong has nothing to say, where did Cheng Duo develop this habit of being extravagant?

He couldn't stop him, so he could only find an excuse to urge him after he finished buying rice noodles: "It's almost time, let's hurry up and meet Shanwazi."

Cheng Duo looked up, only to see the sun hanging high, but since Brother Yong said that the time is almost up, it should be.

At Cheng Duo's insistence, the two bought buns for lunch, and hurried to the intersection outside the city after eating.

Brother Yong heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Shanwazi who had come and waited ahead of time.He was afraid that Cheng Duo would be upset if he found out that he had lied to him.

Back in the village, it was completely dark.Brother Yong came home in the dark, and originally planned to go straight into the room to sleep, but his father was not asleep yet...

"Where have you been these two days, and you didn't come back to sleep last night?"

"I... I'm helping people in Yangshu Village. The lady in that family is kind. She not only provides food, but also covers..."

"You're still lying!" Li Wang's voice suddenly became louder, which startled Brother Yong: "There is no one in Yangshu Village hiring people to work recently. Be honest, where have you been?"

In fact, Li Wang lied to Brother Yong, and since Brother Yong didn't come home, he couldn't possibly ask around.Isn't that telling people clearly that their good brother doesn't come home at night?

But Li Wang did go to Yangshu Village, and if Brother Yong was working there, people in the village would definitely tell him.But they didn't, which proves that Brother Yong is most likely not there...

Brother Yong was really taken aback by his father: "I... I'm sorry, Dad, I really didn't go to Yangshu Village, I went...to Shishilipo with Shanwazi."

"Didn't I tell you that you are not allowed to go again! There are so many people in Ershilipo, what if you encounter bad people? You are a brother who has not yet married. You run out all day and don't come home at night. Look at it." What do you look like!"

Brother Yong lowered his head dejectedly: "Father, don't be angry, I won't go anymore."

"I won't go in the future, that's what you told me last time!" Li Wang knocked on his crutches resentfully, and suddenly realized what he thought of: "Tell me honestly, are you going to find those two people?" An asshole?"
