Chapter 540 Those who do evil will not get wealth!

Ran Qingxuan thought that since they were in a hurry, it would be a good idea to take him over to find someone.

"Thank you very much, big sister."

"Sure, sure."

The woman said hello to the woman from the same village with whom she was chatting, then left the yard and walked towards the village with the two of them.

Ran Qingxuan seemed unintentional and asked as if he was chatting.

"Sister, I heard that Uncle Jin's boat sank and he ran to the city to work. I don't know what caused the waves..."

The woman couldn't find anyone to talk to at the moment, so she came up to her and started gossiping.

"This wasn't caused by any waves. Someone did it on purpose."

"Ah? There is such a thing. If the boat sinks, Uncle Jin won't be able to go out to sea to fish, right?"

"That's right. Those guys still consider Lao Jin's neighbors. They just quarrel a few times. But he was kind enough to take them to sell seafood, so they knew all the prices.

They wanted to sell the product at a high price but couldn't, and they ended up blaming Mr. Jin for not speaking up for them.

Someone saw it in the morning, but these people refused to admit it, so Lao Jin had to go to the city to try his luck and make money. ”

As he was speaking, a woman carrying a basket came towards him and immediately greeted him with a smile.

"Sister Jin, where are you going?"

Sister Jin smiled and responded casually: "I'm going to Old Jin's house. I'm leaving first."

"Hey, walk slowly."

After the few people left, the woman instantly put away the smile on her face, stared at Ran Qingxuan and the others with her triangular eyes, and then quickly left.

Seven or eight minutes later, Sister Jin brought the two to Jin Ermao's house and pointed to the extremely simple courtyard in front.

"This is Lao Jin's house. I'll go get someone for you."

Then he took two steps forward and opened the door: "Mrs. Jin, is Jin here? Someone is looking for him outside."

The woman in the house must be cooking, as she came out shaking the water off her hands.

"Sister Guihua, please come in and sit down."

After saying that, he saw two strange men and women standing outside the courtyard gate, and asked in confusion: "Who are you?"

"Hello, Mrs. Jin, we..."

"My two lords, is the lady here to buy seafood again?"

Ran Qingxuan was interrupted before he could finish his words. He turned around and looked behind him, and saw one of the people who sold them seafood yesterday.

And the person standing next to him was the woman who had just greeted Sister Jin.

Mrs. Jin became so angry when she saw the man outside that she turned back to the house and called out Jin Ermao.

"How dare you come here? This morning you and Old Wu and the others sank my boat. I didn't look for you, but you came to my door on your own."

Gu Yanchen pulled Ran Qingxuan aside and signaled her to wait for her to talk.

The man was not to be outdone, his face flushed as he shouted, "If you say it is, then it is. Do you have any evidence to prove that it was us who did it?"

Jin Ermao was so angry that his whole body was shaking.

"You guys usually go out to sea at noon, but this morning someone in the village saw you coming out from where I put the boat, but when I got there the boat had sunk. If it wasn't you, who else could it be?"

"Is it not possible for us to get up early? Tell us who saw it and call that person over to ask questions."

The words almost came out of his mouth, but Jin Ermao frowned and didn't say anything.

"Old Jin, why don't you tell me? Call the person over and ask him about it."

Mrs. Jin obviously didn't think about anything else. Seeing this, Jin Ermao whispered, "They are kindly reminding us that we can't do things that betray others."

He knew very well that these people were difficult to talk to and were greedy for small gains. If he really told them who they were, it might bring trouble to that person.

As she was speaking, the woman who notified the man to come over pulled her husband and whispered something.

The man then relaxed his expression, put down the fish basket in his hand, and spoke to Ran Qingxuan and the others.

"You two are here to buy seafood. I just happened to catch a lot of crabs today. They are very fresh..."

Ran Qingxuan took a few steps forward. The man thought she wanted to take a look first, so he immediately smiled flatteringly.

"I'm not here to buy seafood today. I'm here to work with Uncle Jin."

"To work?"

The man instantly perked up when he heard this. You know, seafood is not available every day. If he went to the city to work for one day, it would be equivalent to two or three days of fishing at sea.

Jin Ermao is also a smart man. When he met Yang Shuo this morning, he must have known that his ship had been sunk.

Yang Shuo is a house builder, so the reason they found him must be that they wanted him to make some money.

Jin Ermao was deeply moved at that moment, but the other person might not think so.

"Madam, do you need any help? I am physically strong and can do the dirty work, such as moving things."

The man couldn't wait to show off, but Ran Qingxuan glanced at him contemptuously and spoke directly to Jin Ermao.

"Uncle Jin, I heard from Brother Yang that you have the skill to build ships."

"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Madam. I just tinker with it sometimes."

As if he was deliberately speaking to the man, Ran Qingxuan said seriously, "Uncle Jin, several of us are building houses together, so there will definitely be a lot of discarded building wood left over.

I heard from Brother Yang that you have good skills. You should be able to make tables, chairs, benches and the like, right? ”

When Mrs. Jin heard that this was a distinguished guest, she immediately expressed her excitement.

"You have finally found the right person. The tables, chairs and benches in my home and my relatives' homes are all made by Lao Jin himself. The quality is better than those purchased."

When Jin Ermao heard what his wife said, he smiled embarrassedly.

Ran Qingxuan glanced at the jealous man and immediately said, "That's perfect. I'll pay you a deposit of 20 taels today. After the date for building the house is confirmed in the next two days, Yang Shuo from your neighboring village will come and take you to our village.

You can bring the wood back or have it made at our place. The balance will be settled based on the quantity after the production is completed. ”

Before Ran Qingxuan could finish his words, the man's wife had already excitedly started fiddling with her man.

Before Jin Ermao could say anything, the man's wife walked up to him with a smile on her face and said with a lick on his face.

"Madam..., you are still short of people to build the house..."

“No shortage!”

Ran Qingxuan answered very straightforwardly. Gu Yanchen glanced at the two of them, took out twenty taels of silver and handed it to Jin Ermao.

"Uncle Jin, take this deposit first. Just wait for news at home in the next two days."

"Oh...ok...ok..."

Then Ran Qingxuan thanked Sister Jin who led the way, and got into the carriage with Gu Yanchen and left.

Seeing that her chance to make money was gone, the man’s wife stomped her feet and glared at Jin Ermao and his wife.

"Did you do this on purpose?"

"Who did it on purpose? You're not deaf, so why didn't you hear them say they didn't need anyone?"

Mr. and Mrs. Jin Ermao were honest and didn't want to argue, but Sister Jin who led the way was not someone to be trifled with.

Besides, she is related to Jin Ermao, so there is no reason for her not to help her own family.

"Jin Guihua, you are the one who is deaf."

The woman knew she was in the wrong, and she pulled her man away muttering.

"Hey, I gave you face, didn't I?"

Jin Guihua rolled up her sleeves and prepared to chase after him, but Mrs. Jin quickly stopped her.

"Sister Guihua, forget it. I won't bother with them."

"Your family is the only honest one. If it were me, I wouldn't have taken them to make that money yesterday."
