Chapter 158

Fifteen didn't refuse because they repented temporarily, but agreed wholeheartedly.

It wasn't that he cared about their mere taels of silver. Compared with small money, he wanted an IOU that could prove their crimes.

Some of these would-be robbers knew what it meant to write such an IOU.

However, they don't care.

So many people in Houtu Village watched them commit crimes, even if there was no "confession", they would not be able to escape if the people in Houtu Village pursued them.

After collecting all the IOUs, Shiwu personally took them to the south of the village.

Seeing the sharp knives in the hands of the fifteenth and others, the would-be robbers were terrified.

They are so confused, they almost lost their lives last night.

Before leaving, Zhao Huaishan hesitated and asked, "...Master, if our village allows you to fish casually now, are you still willing to sell low-priced fish to us like before?"

Fifteen sneered, "Thanks to you, our master is no longer interested in fishing here.

She went fishing a hundred miles away. "

Zhao Huaishan and the others said, "..."

These things are enough to make Zhao Huaishan and others poke their hearts.

What they didn't expect was that a few days later, when they went out together and passed by a village dozens of miles away, they found that the people there not only knew how to make skates, but also bought small nets for fishing in the village.

They tried to ask these people how to make skates, and those people agreed without hesitation.

"Of course you can. The people in Houtu Village gave us the blueprints. They didn't ask for any compensation. They just told us that no matter who asks for the blueprints, we have to teach them for free."

Zhao Huaishan and the others said, "..."

Taught these people for free...

Although he refused to directly teach the people in his own village, he did not deliberately stop him...

Shen Xingchen was quite generous.

Still, they didn't want to forgive her.

The fact that she wouldn't give them half the fish... she was totally unreasonable and they would never forgive.

With resentment in their hearts, they continued to walk forward, and unexpectedly met Shen Xingchen and his party in the afternoon.

Seeing that they were full of the five big ice carts, Zhao Huaishan couldn't help asking her loudly, "Second Miss Shen, don't you really think it was wrong to refuse to share half of our fish that day?"

Half of the fish in her own village are reasonable, and she has no reason to refuse.

This is completely detrimental to others.

Shen Xingchen didn't know him, but he didn't care.

She smiled slightly and said, "The fishing net is mine, and I have the final say on how to arrange it. The river in front of your village is not yours, let alone the fish in it.

I have done my best not to argue with you, what do you mean, am I still at fault? "

Zhao Huaishan's black face turned red, and he still refused to give in and said, "Obviously as long as you agree, we can be good together, but you refuse... it's a bad conscience, isn't it?"

Shen Xingchen put away his smile, "Is it better to combine two good things into one?
So, what are you going to do with the fish after I catch them with your partner?

marinated?

Do you have enough salt?

Ship it out for sale, can you make skates?
Or do you think I should teach you how to make skates for free?
Humph, since you asked, I'll tell you the truth.

I am very willing to help others, otherwise I would not sell fish for a penny and three catties, but I will not abuse my kindness and help people who do not know good and bad without limit. "

Zhao Huaishan and others, "..."

In fact, they always knew that they were too greedy, but they couldn't let go of the good opportunity to make a fortune.

well!No wonder people say that one must be authentic in life, don't be greedy for profit, and be careful not to lose money by stealing chickens...

They have come true.

……

Zhao Huaishan slid a few steps in frustration, stopped suddenly, and turned to Shen Xingchen, "If we admit our mistake and allow you to fish in our village casually, can you sell us a few pairs of skates?"

Even with blueprints, making skates is not easy.

And cheap fish...

Shen Xingchen shook his head, "I'm not going to fish nearby anymore.

I can sell you a few pairs of skates, and you can also buy a fishing net to catch fish yourself like the villages here. "

Although he didn't like these people, Shen Xingchen didn't want to put them to death.

What's more, in this way, they can catch fish for food by themselves, which saves her trouble.

Zhao Huaishan blushed again, "But... But, we don't have money to buy fishing nets, even small ones."

Shen Xingchen sneered again, but the words he said were warm, "I have a small fishing net. If you want, I can rent it to you for 20 taels of silver a day. You can rent it for a few days first, and buy a small fishing net as soon as you earn money." .”

A small fishing net costs 500 taels of silver, which is not cheap.

Zhao Huaishan silently calculated, "Okay, we will rent it."

Shen Xingchen glanced at them, because he didn't know if these people had attacked Houtu Village at night, and said in a gentle voice, "If you want to go back, you can tie your ice cart behind our ice cart, so that you can go back quickly many."

Zhao Huaishan and the others happily agreed.

Although they saw that Shen Xingchen's big ice cart had vacated many places, they didn't dare to have delusional thoughts.

It's good enough that people are willing to help them in this way, they can't push their feet... Be careful not to lose money by stealing chickens again.

Village head Sheng had already met Sun Li at this time.

Sun Yue went home early on the grounds that he had a little cough.

On the way back, Sun Yue "ran into" Shiwu and others again.

Fifteen secretly stuffed him ten taels of silver this time, saying that he rewarded him for his kindness and bravery.

He also said that when Shen Xingchen came back, he would definitely reward him and Village Chief Sheng.

In addition, twenty meat buns and twenty white flour steamed buns were given to him, and he was asked to share half with Village Chief Sheng.

Sun Li gave half of the food to his grandfather according to what Shiwu said, but he wanted to hand over the taels of silver on his own initiative.

Village head Sheng thought about the situation of his daughter's family, took the money and said, "Grandpa wants to take this opportunity to let you and your cousin learn skills from Miss Shen's second lady. I will hold the money for you and be your future bundle." How do you feel about repairing and living expenses?"

If you take it back, the money will not reach your daughter, but will only be handed over to her mother-in-law.

He is not doing this selfishly, it is a long-term plan.

If Sun Li can take this opportunity to rise to the top, how can the Sun family's glory in the future be compared with these ten taels of silver?
Sun Li's eyes widened in disbelief.

This... is this what he can think of?

However, grandpa never lied to him, and it should be the same this time.

He nodded obediently, "Okay, if I can succeed, I will study hard and let grandpa enjoy the blessings with me."

"Okay, remember to keep your mouth tight, and hide the buns and steamed buns. Don't let anyone other than your parents know. Well, wait a minute. I'll ask your grandma to make some cornmeal buns for you. You can take this when the time comes." deal with the others."

"it is good!"

Little Sun Li said that he liked these arrangements of his grandfather very much.

Village head Sheng had just handed Sun Li over to his wife, when Zhao Huaishan arrived with a complicated expression.

Village head Sheng was taken aback: Could it be that he let Sun Li deliver the letter to the public?
How can this be good?
His face turned pale with fright, so Zhao Huaishan might as well say suddenly, "Uncle, we were wrong before, but from now on, everything about our village will be up to you."

Village Chief Sheng, "..."

What's happening here?
However, as long as the secret is not exposed, any situation is fine.
