Chapter 36
"Wonderful! Wonderful! Damn..."

Just as Lu Lianxian was about to speak foul words, he was alert to his identity and hurriedly shut up.

This is a neat way to deal with it.

"Hmm! That's good! Jin Da, you are willing to hand over the silver taels you picked up!"

"The villain is willing to hand in!"

Mother Jin and her son hurriedly kowtowed.

Anyway, this money is not his own, and it has caused a lot of trouble, so it's okay to give it away, it's better than giving it to the black-hearted shopkeeper Hu.

Without hesitation, Jin Da handed over the silver in his hand to the guard who came over!

"That...that's my silver!"

Hu Xingwang was in a hurry and wanted to go forward to grab it, but he flinched when he saw the fierce eyes of the yamen servant.

"Isn't the silver you lost 30 taels? It's 15 taels, not your silver!"

Lu Lianxian scolded.

"This money belongs to the villain, and the villain would rather only receive 15 taels!"

Hu Xingwang said eagerly.

If he doesn't want it at this time, his money will be in vain, how can he not be in a hurry?
"This silver tael is 15 taels, and yours is 30 taels. The amount is different. How can you claim it? You lose the 30 taels and go find it yourself! Get up the sedan chair!"

Lu Lianxian didn't want to get involved with these people, he was already upset today, with such trivial matters all day long.

After speaking, he got into the sedan chair and let people leave.

When Hu Xingwang saw Magistrate Lu leave, everyone looked at him with a smile.

Feeling ashamed, he didn't bother anymore, and glared at Jin's mother and son fiercely, saying that he wanted to ask his brother-in-law for help, and he would definitely get the money back, and then left in embarrassment.

Everyone laughed, knowing that he was trying to save face.

Although Hu Xingwang's brother-in-law is the magistrate of the county, he is only one level lower than the county magistrate, but he doesn't deal with the new county magistrate very well, so it's no wonder he can get the money back!

In fact, the money really belonged to Hu Xingwang. Hu Xingwang was a local butcher whose ancestors ran a butcher shop.

His father, Hu Butcher, is even more famous at the butcher shop.

The main reason is that this illiterate guy actually invested in a talented man and married his daughter to him.

That Xiucaigong was not only admitted to Juren, but also became the county magistrate in this county.

The Hu family's butcher shop has flourished in Jingshan these years.

Hu butcher is getting older now, and the business is gradually handed over to Hu's little butcher.

In the morning, the little butcher Hu went to the public latrine for Xiaojie, and accidentally pulled the belly wrapped with silver in the latrine.

The silver was originally intended to be handed over to the comprador to buy pigs.

I thought I couldn't find it, and I would be scolded by my father Hu when I went back, so I was very anxious.

Unexpectedly, Jin Da picked up the silver and just came to find the owner.

He was very happy that Jin Da was able to return his silver.

I don't want to be quick to say that since Jin Da has done a good deed, he should give some rewards.

And there was a verbal battle over how much reward to give.

In the end, some people even said that it should be divided evenly.

There were different opinions, which made Hu Xingwang unable to step down.

That Jin Da is also a real person. He saw that everyone said that he would give a reward, and he also watched how Hu Xingwang expressed it.

Hu Xingwang knew Jin Da, and he often went to the streets to sell oil.

Even though he is also a businessman, he feels that he is different from Jin Da, and looks down on Jin Da very much.

Worried that Jin Dazhen asked himself for half of the silver taels, he would become a fraud, and instead relied on Jin Da.

I don't want to end up shooting myself in the foot.

Hu Xingwang left, and everyone dispersed.

"Emperor!"

The Jin Da mother and son all stepped forward and knelt down again to thank Qin Shao and the others.

If it weren't for this person today, they would be dumb eating coptis, unable to tell what they are suffering.Maybe there will be a lawsuit.

Qin Shao hurriedly helped him up.

In order to express her gratitude, Mrs. Jin asked General Jin to pick up the burden of oil on one side and insisted on giving them some oil.

This is the most precious thing in their family, and oil is also a precious thing now.

"We're new here, we're probably going to stay in an inn, there's no fire at home, and there's nowhere to get oil!"

Qin Shao explained.

They had to start fires when they ate, but the mother and son didn't see that their lives were very affluent, and they didn't want the things that others depended on for their livelihood.

Mrs. Jin was very enthusiastic when she heard that they were coming from other places and wanted to find an inn.

Let Jin Da carry the burden and send Qin Shao and the others to the Longmen Inn.

The Longmen Inn is not far from here.

It's just that when Qin Shao and the others arrived, the guest room was full, and there was no place to stay at all.

Qin Shao originally wanted to find the shopkeeper to see if he could accommodate him.
The shop waiter said that the shop owner said he was out on errands, but he happened to be away.

Although Mrs. Jin is over [-] years old, she is still in good health, and she did not know when she followed her.

"Grandpa, if you don't dislike it, there is still a spare house in my old house. Although it is simple, it can still shelter from the wind and rain. You can live here temporarily. It will not be too late to move when you find your family!"

Mrs. Jin also came over at some point.

She was waiting for her son on the other side of the street, but after a long time she saw that her son hadn't come back, so she rushed over.

"Then trouble the old man!"

Qin Shao is very grateful!

Since the old lady has a vacant room at home, she might as well live in it, and then give them some silver taels, and it will be considered as a rent.

Mrs. Jin told Qin Shao and the others that many people came to Anlu Prefecture to seek refuge during this period, and they were basically relatives of people around them.

The city has not completely blocked the entry of outsiders, but the threshold is very high, such as some business travelers, farmers who enter the city for trading and delivery, and people who can be guaranteed by local wealthy households.

Therefore, the inns in the city are very nervous.

Qin Shao remembered that they were probably able to enter the city because of the pass token.

The tokens were not confiscated by those people, but they were only told to stay for 30 days.

There are daily inspections of outsiders in the city.

If they didn't find their cheap father within this month and get an identity, they would probably be kicked out of the city.

They went to their home with Mrs. Jin's mother and son.

Mrs. Jin's house is not a short distance from the center of the bustling street.

It took about 2 miles to get there.

Compared with the county center, this place is like a remote countryside.

There are low squat houses everywhere, and there are many fields around.

Mrs. Jin said that those fields belonged to rich and powerful households in the county, many of them belonged to the Xingwang family.

Their place was originally the suburb of the county, not in the urban area.

In recent years, thieves and robbers have been rampant and once invaded Anlu Prefecture.

King Xing discussed with state and county officials to expand the construction of the city, and their place was included in the scope.

"Is it King Xing Zhu Youzhu?"

Qin Shao was a little excited.

That man is the father of Jiajing Zhu Houcong in the future. If he is lucky, he will settle down in Anlu Prefecture.

Maybe you can meet the future emperor.

If I can curry favor with one or two, if I climb up to the Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houcong, maybe I will be rich and powerful in the future!

"Mr. Qin, don't talk nonsense. The name of the prince is not allowed to be used indiscriminately. Be careful outsiders hear it!"

Mrs. Jin hurriedly tried to persuade her, and she was relieved after seeing that there were no outsiders on the left and right.
