Chapter 23 The Shocked Changhe Village ([-])

Just when everyone was worried, there were familiar footsteps ahead.

"Father, mother, we are back." Tang Gaoming walked over with Tang Yanqing carrying a pole and two empty fish baskets.

Jia Nian and Guo Dapang followed behind, looking at the crowd in front of them with knowing smiles on their lips.

In a trance, everyone thought they had heard the voice wrongly, and then showed expressions of disbelief, and blurted out subconsciously.

"B-Are you back?"

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back"

"Father, father, why did you come back so late?"

"Uncle Village Chief, you went to sell fish, did you get a good price?"

"Hey, who is this fat uncle?"

Tang Daniu spotted Guo Dapang who was following behind, and scratched his head with a puzzled expression.

The voice interrupted the cheers of the crowd, and at the same time looked at Guo Dapang with puzzled eyes.

"I am Fatty Guo, a good friend of your village chief Jia Nian." Fatty Guo said to everyone without waiting for Jia Nian and the others to introduce.

Tang Jiabao blinked: "Are you a friend of the village chief's uncle?"

"Hi, welcome to our Changhe Village," Tang Xingfan said to Fatty Guo.

Tang Xilai's eyes fell on Tang Gaoming and Tang Yanqing, and seeing the two empty fish baskets they were carrying, he asked a question he was most concerned about: "How is the fish selling today?"

"Father, guess how much we sold?" Tang Gaoming asked Tang Xilai.

Listening to Tang Gaoming's inquiry, everyone's attention suddenly fell on the empty fish basket, leaving Guo Dapang behind.

Guifeng showed suspicious eyes, and said to Tang Gaoming: "Could it be sold for 20 taels?"

"No." Tang Gaoming shook his head, with a strong smile on his lips.

Peng Chunlan said to Tang Gaoming, "22 taels?"

"No." Tang Gaoming shook his head again.

Tang Xilai said tremblingly: "Two, 25 taels"

"No." Tang Gaoming continued to shake his head.

Everyone gasped and looked at each other, their eyes wandering over the four empty fish baskets.

"No, it won't be 30 taels, right?" Tang Xingfan asked Tang Yanqing, his eyes were full of expectations, maybe he thought the amount was relatively large so he didn't have the confidence in his heart.

Tang Yanqing and Tang Gaoming glanced at each other, showing satisfied smiles, then continued to shake their heads at the crowd.

"More than 30 taels?" Han Yiqi and Wang Kefei said in unison.

Tang Jiabao and Tang Daniu also looked over at the same time, their small faces full of excitement.But my mind is full of doubts, isn't it said that the fish merchants in the county are all unscrupulous merchants?Why is it so generous in a blink of an eye.

"Don't guess, the village head took us to sell fish." Tang Gaoming paused deliberately when he said this.

Everyone looked over at the same time, subconsciously holding their breath, listening to the specific amount of fish sold.

Tang Gaoming and Tang Yanqing spoke out at the same time, and said loudly to the crowd: "71 taels"

"Seven, 71 taels?" Everyone's eyes widened, and they were so shocked that they couldn't speak.Then he took a deep breath and suddenly felt that all the waiting tonight was worth it.

Tang Yanqing explained to everyone: "71 taels were sold by the village chief, so our family only needs 15 taels, and the rest is left to the village chief."

"15 Liang" people are still immersed in this huge shock, and have not fully recalled it.

You must know that this amount of money is an astronomical sum for them. I thought it could only be sold for 20 taels, and each family can divide it into ten taels at most.Unexpectedly, the village head sold it at a high price of 71 taels, which nearly tripled.

Tang Jiabao and Tang Daniu's heads turned quickly, and they reacted instantly.

"71 taels"

"Uncle Village Chief, you are awesome, you actually sold 71 taels"

"71 taels can buy a lot of candied haws, a lot of candied haws"

"Oh, grandpa, why did you hit me?" Tang Daniu covered his head and looked at Tang Xilai with aggrieved face.

Tang Xilai forcibly suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and deliberately pulled his face, but the smile on the corner of his mouth betrayed him: "Eat, eat, eat, you are thinking about candied haws."

"Jiabao, you can't learn from Daniel, do you know?" Tang Xilai said to Tang Jiabao.

Tang Jiabao looked at the aggrieved Tang Daniu, nodded to Tang Xilai, and then turned his gaze to Jia Nian: "Uncle Village Chief, do you mean that we will be able to hand over the water thief's protection fee soon?" and then we don’t have to die.”

"Well, it can be handed in tomorrow," Jia Nian casually replied to Tang Jiabao.

Tang Xingfan, who was about to speak out, was stunned again when he heard Jia Nian's understatement, and the rest of the people were not much better.

Seeing everyone's reactions, Jia Nian looked puzzled and thought he had said something wrong.

"Village, village chief, do you have a piece of gold in your hand?" Tang Xilai asked Jia Nian trembling all over.One gold is a huge sum of money.

Fatty Guo pursed his lips, and said to them: "Isn't it just one gold? We made two gold just now, and handing over one gold is just a trifle."

"Two, two gold" Tang Xingfan said in surprise.

Tang Gaoming and Tang Yanqing also showed puzzled eyes: "Isn't the village chief almost running out of money?"

"Is the 41 gold used up?" Everyone felt that their heads were not enough. They first said that they had sold a huge sum of money, then they said they had two gold coins, and now they said they used up all of them.

Looking at the shocked crowd, Guo Dapang sighed on purpose, and the corner of his mouth was full of embarrassment: "Isn't it just two gold coins? What's the fuss about. Following Village Chief Jia and Fatty Ben, all the money is worthless." It's drizzle, it's nothing"

"Village chief, do you really have two golds?" Tang Yanqing stammered and asked Jia Nian, but what Fatty Guo said later was directly ignored by Huai.

Jia Nian nodded to Tang Yanqing, took out the two pieces of gold from his clothes, and put them flat in his hands: "I found them in the water thief camp."

"Water thief camp?" Everyone's eyes were full of doubts, they were eager to find out what happened today.

Tang Gaoming and Tang Yanqing glanced at each other, and they both saw relief from each other's eyes: "So there are two huge sums of money in the water thief camp."

"Great," Tang Yanqing said sincerely.

Tang Xilai asked Tang Gaoming and Tang Yanqing: "What's going on? Why can't we understand?"

"Daniu, Jiabao, take the fish baskets into the house," Tang Gaoming said to the two children.

Tang Daniu and Tang Gaoming nodded quickly: "Okay, let's take the fish basket home now."

"Let's go, let's make a fire, and then talk slowly." Tang Yanqing said to Han Yiqi, with a smile on his lips.

Hearing the words "make a fire", everyone felt a little cold, and quickly got up to hug the wood.

Looking at these busy figures, Jia Nian smiled happily.In any case, this is my own starting point, and it is also my home in the dungeon world.
