Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

- "Why isn't it ours? Isn't that money from Jin Xuehai and others who are planning to please us?" Chu Ze said confidently.

Since it is given to him, it is his money.

This makes sense.

Chu Ze looked at Li Xing sincerely.

Li Xing: "..."

He has seen shameless people before, but this is the first time he has seen such shameless people.

Li Xing was silent for a moment, then gave Chu Ze a thumbs up.

Chu Ze readily accepted.

Li Xing: "..."

……

The next day, Li Xing still stared at "Prince Jiaping", while Chu Ze began to walk around Fengyang.

Chu Ze was unfamiliar with this place and planned to find a guide.

What a coincidence. After asking around, the guide I found happened to be the old man who advised Chu Ze to leave quickly yesterday to avoid getting into trouble.

The old man was also surprised when he saw Chu Ze.

The first thing he said was to ask Chu Ze: "Master is still staying in Fengyang?!"

The old man widened his eyes, looked left and right warily, and then said seriously: "Master, this is not a place where you can stay for a long time. You..."

He wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Chu Ze raising his hand.

"Old man, we know you have good intentions, but we are not afraid." Chu Ze smiled confidently.

The old man wanted to say a few more words, but looking at his expression, he sighed heavily and swallowed his words.

Thinking of Chu Ze's purpose, the old man said: "I am a good man. If you have any orders, please tell me. We will not delay what we can do."

Since everyone said so, Chu Ze would naturally not be polite to him.

Chu Ze immediately said: "We want to take a walk around Fengyang. We heard from others that you, the old man, are very familiar with Fengyang, so we would like to ask you to help us get around." Chu Ze took out a piece of silver and handed it to the old man. "This is a reward."

When the old man saw it, he waved his hands repeatedly.

"No need, no need. We little old man don't have much money, but we don't want this little money. The master asked us to lead the way, and we agreed, because the master is a good man."

A person who is willing to offend powerful people for the sake of an insignificant little girl.

He's an old man who enjoys making friends.

And the other party didn't ask him to do anything important, just introduce the local customs and customs.

This is not difficult.

The old man agreed readily.

But he refused to accept the money.

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Chu Ze couldn't force him, so he could only put away the money and say thank you.

"Let's go, where do you want to see?"

As soon as the old man closed the door, he planned to follow Chu Ze.

Chu Ze pointed to his door in a funny way and said, "Don't you plan to lock the door, old man?"

The old man waved his hand, not paying much attention.

"There's no need for a lock. We have nothing in our house. We have nothing. If anyone can move this house, then he can move it."

After listening to the old man's words, Chu Ze couldn't help but laugh.

This old man was so free and easy that surprised him.

"Okay, since you said so, old man, let's not say any more. Let's go."

Chu Ze stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation.

What Chu Ze wanted to see was the topography of Fengyang, so that he could determine the location of the train station.

The old man was surprised when he heard that he wanted to see the entire Fengyang landform.

He turned around and glanced at Chu Ze in surprise.

There was some scrutiny in the old man's eyes. After looking at it for a while, the old man asked: "Looking at this place, does the master want to buy land?"

"...That's right." But it wasn't in his personal name.

Chu Ze added silently in his heart.

Seeing Chu Ze nodding, the old man showed a true expression.

He no longer led Chu Ze around.

Instead, he asked: "I wonder what you want to do with the land? You don't have to worry about me deliberately trying to find out the information. We just want to show you a more suitable land based on your purpose. Fengyang has a large boundary and a lot of land." Many of them are ownerless wastelands. If I want to...as long as I can pass the prefect's test, it will definitely not be a problem."

Chu Ze keenly noticed that when talking about Jin Xuehai, the old man's voice paused for a moment.

Although it soon returned to normal.

But Chu Ze still noticed something was wrong.

Maybe ask.

With this thought, Chu Ze immediately asked.

"From the old man's tone, do you have any objections to Fengyang Magistrate?"

The old man's brows furrowed further.

But he only waved his hand and said nothing.

Chu Ze said: "Does the old man have concerns?"

"Oh, let's talk about you, an old man, you seem to be a very smart person, why are you so ignorant? Our master... Since I asked, I won't betray you. If you have anything to say, just tell our master. And let me tell you, our master is from Yingtian, and he even knows everyone in the palace. If the prefect is really bad, I can replace you with someone else. Why don't you seize such a good opportunity?"

Zhao Si was beating the drum on the side.

The old man looked at Chu Ze in surprise.

It seems that he did not expect that Chu Ze would have such a background.

But it also makes sense why there are so many experts protecting him.

Why are you so bold? You dare to offend even Young Master Liu.

And after offending someone, he is not in a hurry to run away.

only……

"Can you really make the decision for us?" the old man asked uncertainly.

Chu Ze smiled slightly and said, "That's natural."

"You don't want to use money, do you?" The old man's face was full of vigilance, and there was a hint of poverty on his face. His voice became dull and he said a little embarrassedly, "To be honest with you, I am Fengyang...well, Except for those rich people and those who are officials, everyone else is so poor that they can hardly take the blame. Those young people who can walk have gone out to beg, leaving only the old, weak, sick and disabled like us who can't walk. I am forced to stay here, how can I have the money to smoothen the relationship?"

Even if they know that the prefect is not a good person.

But what can be done?

The officials above protect each other.

They couldn't see the emperor, so they could only run away or walk away.

Those left behind can only endure.

If you can't survive it one day, you will have no choice but to die.

After hearing this, Chu Ze looked at the old man in surprise and said, "Then why don't you accept the money we gave you?"

Ten taels of silver is nothing to a rich person.

But for ordinary people, it is nearly half a year’s living expenses.

The old man almost couldn't open the pot, and he didn't even accept it.

When the old man heard this, the bitterness on his face disappeared again, and his free and easy spirit emerged again.

He waved his hands indifferently and said: "We are just an old man, and we will die sooner or later. With this money, we don't want to die. Originally, we were a little poorer now, but we lived happily. But once we have money, will we be able to live? If you don't talk about it for a long time, you will become worried in the days to come. In comparison, let's forget it."

The more Chu Ze listened, the weirder his expression became.

The old man looked more and more surprised.

He didn't expect that in a place like this, there would be a person with an informal mind. (End of chapter)
