Chapter 92
God, more than 3000 silver, I dare not even think about it. Everyone has been thinking about it, but no one dared to ask. Now when they heard it, they were immediately stunned.

They always thought there were only a few hundred taels, but who knew there were so many.

Mrs. Fan nuzzled Mrs. Ge: "Old girl, you are pinching me, is this true? We actually have several thousand taels of silver. Isn't that richer than Mr. Li back then?"

After all, Mrs. Ge has seen the world, and she was extremely disdainful when she heard this: "Why do you have to compete with a big man Li? If you open your eyes wider, you can't compete with that Wang Lizheng?"

Mr. Jing's second daughter, Jing Damei, came over and said, "Auntie, Wang Lizheng is not necessarily richer than us!"

Mrs. Ge glanced at her and said, "You think so many fields and livestock are not money!"

Jing Damei touched her nose and stopped talking.

Jing Li smiled and said, "I missed one thing. There are still more than 500 silver in the inn!"

Wanbao Quanji sighed: "It's a pity that I can't get it all back. I have to leave some for those horse bandits, otherwise we might have 5000 taels if we just scrape together!"

The remaining people who didn't know what happened at the inn were shocked, what?And left a few hundred taels of silver for the horse bandits?Why!Wouldn't it be better to take them all back?

Mr. Jing knocked on his pipe to maintain order: "Listen to me. You can't mention anything about the inn in the future, otherwise it will lead to death. I understand."

"I understand, Grandpa!"

Jing Li took out her own silver: "I have eight hundred taels at home. I pawned the jewelry given by the nobles in exchange for it before I left."

When Su heard this, she looked a little unhappy. Of course, she should keep the money. Jing Ye will have to study in the future. Buying a house and marrying a wife will cost money. How can this girl be so generous and give it all? I went, I knew I should keep it myself.

Of course, Jingli didn't take out all of them. She still kept some of the gold leaves that Haitang had given her.

Everyone had complicated expressions. This girl had worked hard for everyone along the way, and now she had given up all her money for Gaiwubao. This was so shameless!

Mr. Jing was about to speak when he was interrupted by a female voice: "Thanks to everyone for taking care of me along the way, I still have some money, so hurry up and build a house first!"

The one who spoke was Haitang. She took out more than 500 silver. Wan Baoquan across from her cast a burning gaze. The girl he liked was indeed extraordinary.

Shen Huwei also took action: "This is the money from me and my brothers, not much, more than 300 in total."

Everyone was shocked. It turned out that there were so many invisible rich people here, and each one of them spent hundreds of dollars at a time. How embarrassing for people whose income was only a few taels of silver all year round!
Mrs. Ge also took out a small cloth pocket from the waistband of her trousers: "This is my old lady's coffin book and my granddaughter's dowry money."

Jingli opened it and saw a lot of broken silver coins, a total of 57 taels of silver.

Mr. Jing sighed: "Our family can't be weaker than others. Let's take out all our money."

His eldest daughter-in-law tremblingly took out dozens of taels of silver, with the word "pain" written clearly on her face.

The fat aunt laughed and said, "I'll just take out the money from my boys' weddings. Da Lang, you guys have to rely on your own skills in the future!"

Wang Dalang blushed and said nothing. When Su saw the fat aunt like this, she felt less uncomfortable.

Then Zhao Orion, Chef Fan, and the blacksmith family also joined in one after another.

On the simple small table in the middle, there is a pile of banknotes and silver, which makes people unable to take their eyes away.

Mr. Jing and Mrs. Ge counted each other for a long time, and there were more than 500, which was far beyond everyone's expectations.Mrs. Ge pushed the money in front of Jing Li: "There is too much money. I don't dare to take care of it anymore. You can keep it from now on."

The money was so attractive that Mrs. Ge was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable. Jingli took it with a smile. She didn't care. Anyway, if it was thrown into space, she wouldn't be able to get the money back even if she was hacked to death.

After collecting the money, Jingli said to everyone, "It's too late to build a house this winter."

"We were divided into four groups. One group built a house, one group went up the mountain to cut trees and hunt, one group farmed, and one group went out to buy and sell goods."

Shen Huwei's people were divided into two groups. One group followed Zhao Orion and the others into the mountains to hunt, and the other group wanted to follow Wan Baoquan to the city to sell their hunted prey.

The villagers in the east end passed by the small slope in the middle intentionally or unintentionally, wanting to see how this group of people got by.

Then to their surprise, these people's place looked exactly the same every day.

More and more trees were cut down, the stones on the riverside were pulled back, and the house slowly erected.

Today I saw that the foundation was dug, and in two days I saw that the stone-cut wall was half a man high.

In a few days, I saw people starting to put thatch on their roofs.

The people in the village couldn't help but feel contempt. The roofs were all covered with grass. When the windy weather came in March next year, the entire roofs would be blown away.

Of course Jingli will consider this matter. Fortunately, this place is made of bamboo, and the old men have made a lot of baskets and backpacks in the past few days.

The bamboo poles were broken into two, and the thatch was supported on both sides, and then nailed to the beams with iron nails, which somewhat fixed it, while an oilcloth was used under the thatch to keep out the rain.

Wanbaoquan got up early and went into the dark to buy oilcloth and grain. Things in Mayi County were too expensive, so he had to go to counties further away to buy them. Some of them had to go to Chang'an to buy them. It took dozens of miles to go back and forth. There was no one from Shen Guard to follow. Jingli I'm really worried.

Most of the oilcloth sheds here have been demolished, leaving only a few livestock sheds. The elderly and children can only crowd in the livestock sheds at night.

The men worked until midnight every day, and several large fires were not extinguished until dawn.

An older man in the village shook his head: "It's so pitiful. We all have to wear cotton-padded clothes now, but all of them are still sleeping in the open air. How can we afford to treat the cold if we get it?"

If the people in Jingjia Village knew this, they would definitely reply with a smile: We have a doctor!

That's right!Dr. Xiao He is very helpful. He followed the hunting team up the mountain all day long and collected a lot of medicinal herbs. Now even the old lady knows a few medicinal herbs.

There is no need for him to follow him later. The hunting team will recognize the medicinal herbs themselves. Under his leadership, they naturally get started very quickly. Not only do they hunt every day, but they also bring back a lot of medicinal herbs.

With more people, more strength, and since they are all hard-working people who have endured hardships, the house was built quickly.

On the fifth day of September, the Double Ninth Festival is approaching.
Between the Beishui River and Lao Beishan, a courtyard house rises from the ground. Today is the day when the new house is completed. Everyone is beaming with joy, and the joy in their eyes and brows cannot be concealed.

At the door of every house, there are piles of furniture made by the old blacksmith. There are no tables and stools to look at, but the people in the village are not particular about it, so just use it.

Mr. Jing led people to look around the house with laughter, laughing while watching, how wonderful!This is where we settle down.
