After feeding the exiled criminals, she was forced to reveal herself

Chapter 80 This thing is too much punishment, right?

Chapter 80 This thing is too much punishment, right?
As soon as the villagers said this, not only Xie Zhen was stunned, but several guards nearby also came over curiously.

The Xie family has seen a lot about leather.

The Duke's mansion has been rich and prosperous for hundreds of years, but he has never seen any fine leather.

However, this time and that time.

When the Duke's house was ransacked, all the valuables were swept away by Qiu Suan and his men. The good materials stored in the warehouse were also put into the treasury. Now they were walking on the road without a single piece of leather.

When we leave the customs in the future, it will be windy, snowy and cold. It would be great if we could have a piece of leather to keep out the cold.

Xie Zhen's heart moved, "We have to see how the material is first. If it's really high-quality..." She thought for a moment, then took off a heavy silver bracelet from her wrist and held it up to the other party, "I'll use it." How about exchanging this silver bracelet with you?"

The villager looked simple and taciturn, but he stared at the bracelet in Xie Zhen's hand for a while, and his eyes lit up when he saw a few small gems scattered on the wide bracelet.

"You wait."

After saying that, he turned around and said something unknown to the tall and thin villager behind him. After that, he walked quickly towards the village.

Xie Zhen looked at his back in the distance, then turned to look at something else. Behind him, Xie Wuying rolled his eyes and walked up to talk to the tall and thin villager.

"Nao Nao, do you know what kind of leather the elder brother mentioned just now?"

The tall and thin villager just looked at him and didn't answer.

Xie Wuying didn't get the answer. She bent her nose and walked back to Xie Zhen, whispering: "Second sister, don't tell them anything when asking them. It's mysterious. It can't be smuggled goods."

Xie Zhen looked up, "What do you mean by black goods?"

As a boudoir woman, she really didn't know what men like Brother Wu Ying meant in their words.

Xie Wuying said: "It's just something that comes from a bad origin."

Xie Zhen understood. She looked at the tall and thin villager and said, "It doesn't matter whether he came from the right way or not. We are all refugees. I don't know if I will be reported to the Lord of Hell one day. What's so scary? They dare to sell it. I Just dare to change.”

Xie Wuying looked at her second sister Xie Zhen with admiration and clasped her hands in fists.

Xie Zhen glanced at him and said, "I'll be here soon, you guys, take a good look."

"Have you been watching for a long time and others are trying to steal it from us?"

"Robbing?" Xie Zhen raised his wrist and shook it lightly, "That villager is a good judge of goods. This thing is inconspicuous, but if you really exchange it for money, you can buy him dozens of pieces of leather."

"Then we are in a big loss."

Xie Zhen didn't care. While looking at the things being traded in other people's hands, he said, "You can't think like that."

A bundle of dried vegetables happened to come into Xie Zhen's field of vision. With quick eyesight and a piece of silver, she directly changed the bundle of dried vegetables and stuffed it into the guard's hand. Someone next to her cursed angrily, and the Xie family guard stepped forward and protected Xie Zhen inside.

Xie Zhen glanced at the other party and turned his head contemptuously to explain to Xie Wuying.

Every day in the team, he spreads rumors and teases about the Xie family, so he robs them!
Xie's family was large and powerful, and the man with a stern face cursed and pushed away the prisoner who was negotiating with the villagers next to him.

"Go away, I haven't chosen yet, it's your turn!"

Xie Wuying reminded the guard in a deep voice: "Keep an eye on that rogue."

"Don't worry, Master Wuying," the guards said.

Xie Zhen took him to the other side and continued: "Silver is just one of the means to achieve things. The value of silver does not depend on the money itself, but on what you want to use it for, what situation, what matter, one The value of copper coins changes, so you have to treat it as a living thing."

Xie Wuying is not very old. Although she is not as wealthy as the Xie family children who are direct descendants of the Jingmen, her family background in Huaiyang is not bad among her peers. She has not suffered much from birth to growing up. Apart from crying every day while practicing kung fu since she was a child. I endured the peeing, and spent the rest of the time climbing trees and going down rivers with my brothers, which was a lot of trouble. His grandparents loved him and his parents did not restrain him, so he developed a naturally optimistic character.

Without such a temper, he would not have dragged his good brother Xie Wenjie along with Mrs. Xie and the others to fight against the officers and soldiers on the day of the house raid.

The Duke's mansion is so big, and they are not the only two children of the same clan living in the mansion.

There was no shortage of money when he was young, so Xie Wuying didn't have a deep concept of money. His mother was in charge of the family, so when he ran out of money, he would just ask his parents for it.

No one told him these detailed things.

But Xie Wuying was smart, and Xie Zhen opened his mouth to explain to him, and he immediately realized that the second sister was teaching him.

Xie Jiarongguang's generation is all related to the capital. Now they are in ruins and exile. Survival is the first priority. Xie Wuying didn't think too much, but Xie Wenjie mentioned to him privately that sometimes he encountered mysterious things on the road. Brother will explain some principles to him in detail.

Unexpectedly, the second sister treated him like this.

Anyway, the ingredients haven't been fetched yet, so Xie Zhen doesn't mind saying a few more words.

"We, the Xie family, have been taught at home for many years that we should not be blinded by money, wealth, or lose our spirit. You have experienced the house raids, and you should also be able to understand that the Duke's mansion is no bigger than a village, can it be bigger than the palace? , the people in the palace value the Xie family, and the Xie family will reward them. If they don’t like the Xie family, they will copy you. But in this case, the people inside also have to be wary of the Xie family. They have been planning for many years. As the old saying goes, Only those who are thieves every day, how can they guard against thieves every day?"

"You can't live without money on the road, but it's definitely not the way it was used when the Duke's Mansion was still prosperous." Xie Zhen raised his eyes and saw a figure approaching in the distance, and picked a few more items, "You came to Beijing from the south, and you have never been outside the customs." , I have heard that the road outside the customs is dangerous and the weather is cold, do you think this bracelet can help us carry the snow and save our lives?"

"Of course not." Xie Wuying answered happily.

Xie Zhen smiled slightly and said: "But it can help us change a piece of wind-resistant leather in this village. This is its value and role at this moment."

"People must survive first before anything else."

Xie Wuying smiled, "Second sister is right."

Xie Zhen also smiled and glanced at him lovingly. Her eyes lit up when she saw the color of the material in his hand.

I heard Xie Wuying whisper from the side: "Second sister, if I can stand up in the future, I will definitely come back to the capital to vent my anger on you!"

Xie Zhen turned to look at him, thinking that the young man was hot-blooded, smiled and nodded.

The villager who wanted to sell leather picked up half of it, threw it over his shoulder, and put it on the ground when Xie Zhen approached.

"Just this piece of leather, take a look at it."

Xie Zhen lowered his head, and a piece of green-gray long-fur material appeared in front of his eyes.

She was a little surprised, "Is this... wolf skin?"

"It's a wolf skin. I got it from outside the customs last winter." The villagers answered one by one.

A wolf skin appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the surroundings became silent for a moment.

Many prisoners were fine before, but when they saw the wolf skin and looked up at the villagers, their eyes and expressions changed.

Xie Wuying reacted quickly and picked up the wolf skin and spread it on both arms for Xie Zhen to inspect.

Although Xie Zhen was touching the fur with her hands, she had already thought in her heart that she wanted this material!

A gust of fragrant wind blew by, and no one noticed that Tu Hua was right next to him.
