The Richest Man in the Heavens Starts from Outlaws of the Marsh

Chapter 30 Dig and Run
Du Yu and his party pretended to be Hua Shigang, the supervisor of the imperial city, and lived in Shoushan Village.

In order to drive the villagers to help him dig Tianhuangshi, he used both threats and inducements.

On the one hand, it shows financial resources to the villagers, and on the other hand, it shows off its military strength.Coupled with their brand-new official uniforms, neither Baozheng Chen Qing nor the hundreds of villagers in the village have any doubts.

Especially that arrogant attitude, which is the same as or even more arrogant than the officials of the Song Dynasty in their impression.

This group of people have to kill chickens and ducks for every meal in the village. The only good thing is that they really pay for the chickens and ducks of the villagers.

Du Yu came here to ask for money, not really to squeeze those people, there is no need to do things too extreme, so no matter what you do, you can just use money to clear the way.

Modern industrial silver is only 5 yuan a gram and the difference between the price in Water Margin World is huge. He doesn't care about these expenses, not to mention that there must be some compensation for destroying people's fields.

After Du Yu used these two tricks, the villagers realized that the person in front of them was the cannibal Shangguan of the capital.

Like it or not, they took their tools and went to the edge of the field to dig stones.

From the original intention, the villagers of Shoushan Village are of course unwilling to dig a good rice field in a mess, and they have to dig deep to find stones.Doing this is tantamount to destroying the fields, and how they will live in the future.

It's just that he was frightened by the opponent's force and was afraid of being killed by the gang of officials, so he bit the bullet and went to the field.

In fact, Du Yu didn't expect too much to dig up beautiful stones in exchange for silver that Du Yu promised. It's not bad if people in the government don't squeeze them these days, but how many people who work for the court have seen their wages.

The villagers reluctantly began to dig the paddy fields on both sides of the Shoushan Creek. Perhaps because they were undeveloped, a stone the size of a fist was soon dug out.

After rushing through the water, the color was like orange peel, bright and bright, and the villagers immediately found Chen Qing and handed it over to check.

Chen Qing held it in his hand to observe, and didn't understand what was so good about this stone. Apart from being more beautiful than ordinary stones, he didn't see any special features.

He was also not sure if it was what the people in the Imperial City Department wanted, so he came to Du Yu carefully and offered the stone.

"My lord, I dare to ask if what you are looking for is this kind of strange stone." Chen Qing said.

Du Yu took it and observed it carefully. The stone is delicate and moist, slightly transparent, with hidden radish patterns in its texture. It seems to be the orange peel red field that is extremely rare in Tianhuang stone.

He was overjoyed, it seemed that today's fortune has been paid off at the very beginning, and he asked, "Who discovered this stone?"

The villager who dug the stone walked over in fear and said, "My lord, it was dug by the grass-roots people."

"Well, that's right. You'll be rewarded with this silver, so keep digging up a few more pieces." After Du Yu finished speaking, he took out a silver ingot from the small box beside the table and chopped off a corner with the Xiuchun knife and threw it over.

"Thank you for your reward, my lord." The villager took the money and thanked him repeatedly, but he didn't expect the lord who came up to actually give the money.

After putting the silver in his arms, the villager immediately ran to his rice field by the stream and called the whole family to find the stone together.

Chen Qing was also dumbfounded. After dealing with the government for so many years, it was the first time he met an official who was really paid for his work. swallowed.

Shaking his head to clear away what he shouldn't think about, he hurried to find his family members, he was also jealous of the white money in the box.

The motivation of the first successful case to others is unimaginable. The whole village of Shoushan Village was excited by Du Yu's trick, and went to find the stone with great enthusiasm.

Soon, someone dug up another stone and sent it over.

Du Yu saw that the whole body of the stone was golden yellow with some red grid patterns. When it was shone in the sun, there were vaguely radish-like fine lines that were thick on the outside and light on the inside. Three unique appearance features that are out of place.

This stone is not transparent enough, obviously the quality is not high, but the advantage is that it is larger.

Du Yu also accepted it, and rewarded him with a piece of silver.

If there is one, there are two, and there are three. Many villagers dug up Tianhuangshi one after another and sent them to him for identification.

Du Yu gave different prices according to the quality of the stones. The better ones would be larger, and the ordinary ones would be smaller.

But no matter what the quality is, as long as it is Tian Huangshi, he will accept it.

On the first day alone, he received nearly a hundred pieces of Tian Huangshi, which can be said to be a fruitful harvest.Of course, that box of silver also consumed nearly half.

Seeing that the effect was good, Du Yu deliberately went out of the village to travel back to modern time and space, and did not recharge a wave of money, so as not to run out of money by then.

The next day, the villagers who got the money were even crazier.

Men, women, old and young go to battle together, for fear of missing the rare opportunity to make a fortune.

At the end of the day, Du Yu received more stones, such as orange peel yellow, chicken oil yellow, gold wrapped in silver, white field stone, silver inlaid with gold, and black leather fields.

He thought to himself that it was hard for him to come here, and he always felt that he missed hundreds of millions if he didn't give those Tian Huang a spoonful of stew.

So, a group of eight of them lived in Shoushan Village for a month.

Now Du Yu's system space has a pile of Tianhuangshi, and even he himself doesn't know the exact number, so he went back to modern time and space and put those Tianhuangshi in the cellar of his hometown in Yanhe Town.

In order to pay the villagers of Shoushan Village, the number on his bank card has also shrunk sharply, which of course is nothing compared to the harvest.

But we can also see how crazy the villagers of Shoushan Village have been this month.

Du Yu saw that the villagers found fewer and fewer stones in the past few days, and when they couldn't even find two or three stones a day, he knew that it was almost time to run away.

He called Chen Qing over and said, "Chen Baozheng, let's dig the strange stone here. I have to return to Tokyo to report to you. You gather the villagers and I have something to say."

"My lord, the grass-roots people will do it now." Chen Qing agreed and went to work, but he felt a little lost in his heart. He didn't know when he would meet such a lot of money-throwing officials.

Soon, the villagers of Shoushan Village were gathered at the threshing ground at the head of the village.

"You have tried your best to dig stones these days, and I am very satisfied. But the date has come, and I will return to Tokyo with the strange stones, so the work of digging stones will come to an end," Shi Jin said.

Hearing that the people from Huangcheng Division were leaving, the villagers were inevitably a little disappointed. These days, their families have made a lot of money, ranging from dozens of taels of silver to hundreds of taels.

The villagers talked a lot, and they all felt that it was a pity that such a good thing would come to an end.

Du Yu waved his hand to signal them to stop the noise, and said: "I don't need to deliberately dig fields to get stones when I'm not here, but if someone accidentally finds a strange stone and keeps it at home, I don't know when I will come again."

"Thank you, sir." Chen Qing said.

In fact, he, Baozheng, has gained the most in the village. After all, nearly half of the entire Shoushan Village is his family's fields, and no one else dared to dig in his fields, so he got hundreds of taels of silver in one fell swoop.

"However, I would like to remind you that it is a good thing to get the money, so don't make it too public. The matter of getting the strange stone is a secret of the royal family. Whoever dares to reveal it, don't blame me for being ruthless." Du Yu suddenly put on a bad face. , making the villagers sweat coldly.

"The villain will be strictly controlled, please rest assured." Chen Qing said.

"It doesn't matter if you talk too much, the next one may not be someone as easy-talking as I am. If it's the Huangcheng Secretary who has a bad temper, I can't say that you..." Du Yukong made a gesture of beheading.

The villagers felt a chill in their hearts, and felt that the lord didn't seem to be joking, so they immediately reminded themselves not to make some money and just float away.

After scaring the villagers of Shoushan Village, Du Yu led Jiang Zhao, Yang Chun and his party to leave in a big way.

The villagers were silent, and they didn't breathe a sigh of relief until they disappeared. For a moment, they even thought that the people from the Imperial City Division wanted to snatch back the silver issued to them.

That's why they didn't notice that Du Yu and his group didn't drag the carriage to load those strange stones when they left.

Walking out of Shoushan Village, crossing two mountain roads and coming to Guan Road, several people galloped on horses and quickly disappeared in the border of Fuzhou.

However, they did not return the same way, but continued south to Quanzhou, the largest port city in the world at that time, where they planned to hire a large ship to return by water.
