In the end, it was Old Man Tai who persuaded him, "Boss, we live at the foot of the mountain, and we have a lot of furs every year. If you don't mind, I will send them to you in the future. What do you think?"
The fur shop owner had no choice but to settle for the next best thing. If the wolf pack went to Taijia Village again, he would get rich...
Old Master Tai didn't know that the shopkeeper was thinking this way, otherwise he would have thrown the shopkeeper into the wolf pack to let him experience it for himself!
Soon, the price of the wolf skins was agreed upon, and the skins were delivered to the fur shop, and everyone said goodbye.
Manager Min was going back to report to his master. Before leaving, he settled the price of the wolf skin at the highest price of five taels per piece, for a total of one hundred taels. He even instructed the drivers of the three carriages to obey the orders of the old man and others.
This is because they are worried that it will be inconvenient for the old man and others to return to the village!
Friendship is something that is built when you care about me and I care about you, and we take care of and help each other.
There is a reason why everyone in the Tai family and even the entire Taijia Village likes Manager Min!
The old man calculated the total wolf skin revenue at over 160 taels, then he waved his hand with a generous gesture, "Let's go find a clinic to get everyone's wounds checked out. Don't let them get any more serious injuries. We still have decades of good life to live! Then we can go buy some wine and meat and go back to the village for some fun!"
The crowd followed happily and soon filled up a roadside clinic.
Banxianer heard the news from somewhere and came over directly. He groped for Old Man Tai's hand and gave him a thumbs up.
He knew that the Tai family were all powerful people, but he was still surprised by how powerful they were!
"Brother, your family isn't just lucky, they're incredibly brave. They've wiped out half of the wolves, which is one of the most impressive feats in all of Wei!"
Old Master Tai and Third Master Tai were both flattered and laughed heartily. Old Master Tai pulled him aside and said, "Even if you don't praise us, we won't forget you. I was planning to pick you up later and go back to the village for a drink together!"
Banxianer's beard curled up with laughter. "Oh, I was saying there would be magpies chirping in the trees when I went out today. Turns out it was you! Okay, we have to drink this celebratory wine!"
After saying that, he grabbed Zhuzhu's hand to show the way and went to play together, with Zhimaqiu following quickly behind.
The old man, the young man, and a dog bought all the snacks sold on the street and came back happily.
I have to say that the doctor's consultation fee last night was not in vain; he treated everyone's injuries very attentively. After examining them today, the doctor also prescribed some medicine to clear the toxins and reduce internal heat. I went home and continued to drink it for three days and everything was fine.
Of course, scarring is inevitable.
But the people in Taijia Village are still afraid of not leaving scars. After all, when they are old, they hope that these scars will prove their bravery and receive the admiring gazes of their grandchildren!
Tai Jizu took his men to the market and made some quick purchases. When they passed by a winery, he also took away twenty jars of strong liquor. Everyone returned home like victorious generals, under the envious and awe-inspiring gazes of the city people.
The old and young women and children in the village had been waiting under the big tree at the entrance of the village for a long time, their necks stretched two feet long, finally waiting for their man to come back.
The old man didn't let them worry too much. He got off the car and called Yang Lihua, "Eldest wife, let the second wife lead the group to cook. Go get some pens and ink, and we'll distribute the money to each family first."
"Okay, Dad, I'll be right there!" Yang Lihua picked up her chubby daughter, whose face was covered with sesame seeds, and went straight back to the west room.
The account books and writing materials were ready. Chunhong helped to set up the table and moved the exchanged loose copper coins together so that the gold could be divided on a large scale.
No one wants to miss such a good opportunity.
Even the women who cooked with Liu Dongniang were picking vegetables in their hands and looking inside with their legs crossed.
Old Master Tai and Third Master Tai discussed it for a while and decided to proceed according to the distribution method agreed upon yesterday.
Those who work harder will get more silver, and those who are seriously injured will get more silver. The basic principle is that those who have made contributions will be rewarded!
In this way, when there are problems in the tribe in the future, the tribe members will be more active and united!
Yang Lihua started calculating with an abacus. In the end, everyone who fought against the wolves, including He Shan and the master chef who repaired the ancestral hall, including Old Master Tai, Third Master Tai and Chunhong, received two taels of silver.
Those who were seriously injured and delayed the work would receive an additional 500 coins. He Shan and the others were the main force in killing wolves, so they would also receive an additional 500 coins...
No one raised any objection during the entire process.
No, Mr. Tai San actually wanted to refuse. He was sent to the roof last night. Let alone helping, it was lucky that he didn't hold him back.
But the tribesmen all disagreed. After all, for an elder of such an old age to rush to the front when faced with danger is already commendable in itself!
He is a worthy patriarch of the clan. He has put in so much effort for the Tai family, and it cannot be measured by these few taels of silver!
Finally, speaking of the yard and fields left by Tai Jijin's family, someone's son had grown up, and they were thinking of building a yard for their son to get married in the future, so they paid one or two taels of silver to buy the yard.
In reality, Tai Jijin's house was just a thatched hut that had leaked over time. The one ounce of silver he paid for it was just a piece of land. The remaining three mu of land was also bought by a larger family.
With a large population, there is a lot of labor. Since Tai Jiye started looking for people to work after the New Year, this family has been involved. They have earned more than ten taels of silver by selling their labor, and now they have exchanged them for land, which has also saved up family wealth.
Master Tai San wanted to divide the money from selling the yard and land among everyone as agreed, but he was opposed.
"Third uncle, what Tai Jijin and his family did is too dishonest. I'm afraid our ancestors would be angry if they knew. It would be better to use this money to repair the ancestral hall and make more offerings to our ancestors. I hope they will bless us descendants in the future."
"Yes, that's what I thought."
"Third uncle, use this money to repair the ancestral hall. Make it better."
Master Tai San didn't expect his clansmen to be like this, and he was very happy.
"Okay, okay. Each family will only get a few hundred coins from this silver. We can use it to build the ancestral hall. Please, ancestors, bless our Tai family to prosper and our children to grow up well! Oh, and Yongning is taking the exam. He will definitely pass the exam successfully!"
Zhuzhu was hugging her grandfather's thigh and watching the fun, secretly nibbling on a piece of dessert in her hand. When she heard what Third Grandpa said, she shouted in a baby voice, "Second brother has passed the imperial examination and won first place!"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh, and the old man even picked up his granddaughter and shouted, "Yes, your second brother is going to be the top scorer in the imperial examination!"
Yang Lihua pulled up a table and went with the other women to prepare the food and wine.
The men, young and old, did not go home either. They continued to gather together and chat and laugh. They talked about the frightened and surprised looks of the city people, which was enough for them to talk about for three days and three nights.
The old and young women, both men and women, could not help but laugh along, their chins raised high!
Banxian was seated next to Old Man Tai. When he heard that the Tai family was building an ancestral hall, he said, "Wait for me to calculate an auspicious day for you to offer sacrifices to your ancestors. I guarantee that your future will be smooth sailing and that all misfortunes will turn into good fortune."
Just as he was saying this, Sesame Ball suddenly ran out of the village barking, startling everyone.
