Chapter 49: The Fat Sheep
King Hu snorted: "I need someone to test the medicine."
Qi Yunzhou crossed his arms and said coolly, "He covets Yue'er."
Qi Yunxi spread his hands, "He wanted to kill me and played with my feelings. Of course I have to take revenge on him."
Qi Mingxi & Qi Jinyu: "It's so boring to travel every day."
Swish, swish, swish, Shen Yunzheng was hit by several arrows. He looked at Zhong Danyue pitifully.
Zhong Danyue smiled awkwardly, "Well, I'm the same as Yun Xi..."
Very good, Shen Yunzheng was shot and lost too much blood, so we can start the meal.
Su Song stopped Jiang Xinming and said a lot of dry words. Jiang Xinming was confused. "Master Su, what exactly do you want to say?"
This is all rambling and has nothing to do with anything important.
Just as Su Song was about to make an excuse, he caught a glimpse of the gesture Shen Xun gave him from the corner of his eye and instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
He returned to his indifference, "It's okay, I just wanted to ask how you've been lately. Since you're okay, then..."
"I have something to do!"
Speaking of this, Jiang Xinming was no longer sleepy. He complained, "A meal costs one hundred taels of silver, and hot water and tents also cost money. Can Master Su take care of them?"
"I saw that the others didn't pay anything, so how come they were able to eat, drink and live for free?"
"It's time to take action," Su Song said seriously. "Don't worry, I'll go warn them later."
It's too much to take so much money and not give him any share!
"As for the others... they paid enough money before you came."
Jiang Xin understood and said gratefully, "Thank you, Master Su."
Su Song said with a guilty conscience: "No need to thank me, I'll leave first."
Jiang Xinming turned around and almost bumped into Prince Hu. Qi Jingcheng, in a domineering move to protect his father, pulled Prince Hu into his arms and said, "What do you want to do to my father?!"
"ah?"
Jiang Xinming was confused, "What did I do?"
Isn't it just that they almost collided with each other?
"Don't you know what you did?"
Qi Jingcheng pointed at Prince Hu and said, "Look at what you've done to my father."
Prince Hu rolled his eyes, screamed, and fell into Qi Jingcheng's arms.
Jiang Xinming: “!!!”
It’s a scam!
He tried to explain, but Qi Jingcheng refused to listen and insisted on making him pay with his life. Jiang Xinming tried to persuade him, and with Qi Yunxi's help in pleading, he finally settled the matter with five thousand taels of silver.
Jiang Xinming signed an IOU for 50 million yuan before he even got the money he asked for from Chu Tiankuo. He felt like there was a fire burning in his heart, about to burn him to ashes.
"Brother Xinming," Qi Yunxi said angrily, looking at the depressed Jiang Xinming, "They must have come here to scam me because they saw that Brother Xinming was rich!"
Jiang Xinming nodded quickly. He looked at Qi Yunxi affectionately, thinking that Xier still understood him.
Zhong Danyue sighed, "So what? They have more people, we can't defeat them."
Qi Yunxi looked gloomy. "If only Qingrong were here, she would know martial arts and could protect Brother Xinming."
When the name "Qingrong" was mentioned, Jiang Xinming's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.
Just as he was about to find an excuse to leave, he heard Qi Yunxi say, "By the way, Brother Xinming, when I left Qinghe County, I heard that Qingrong had escaped."
"I also heard," she glanced at Jiang Xinming and said hesitantly, "I heard that someone saw Qingrong leaving with you..."
Jiang Xinming said with a guilty conscience, "How is that possible? Qingrong and I are not familiar with each other. I ran away to get reinforcements to save you. If I could take someone with me, I would definitely take you."
"Is that so?" Qi Yunxi said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Brother Xinming, I shouldn't have doubted you."
Jiang Xinming felt guilty and laughed the matter off.
Every meal time was a painful moment for Jiang Xinming. This time, for some reason, the police brought some exquisite pastries.
The selling price is ten taels per piece.
Jiang Xinming sneered: Who would spend ten taels of silver to buy snacks?
Ten taels of silver could buy a big bag of those cakes.
but--
"My dear, this is the snack your husband bought for you."
"Wife, I bought it for you too..."
Qi Yunxi and Zhong Danyue looked at Jiang Xinming at the same time, and then sighed in unison.
Zhong Danyue said sympathetically, "Brother Ming has no money left, Sister Xi, let's not make things difficult for him."
Qi Yunxi nodded, "Okay."
Xie Lan passed by holding the cakes he had just "bought" and glanced at Jiang Xinming with that look.
Jiang Xinming: “…”
He stood up suddenly and said, "Xi'er, Yue'er, wait for me, I'll go buy it."
Qi Yunxi tried to stop him symbolically, but failed.
Jiang Xinming walked towards the police angrily.
What was that look in that man’s eyes just now? It was as if this prince couldn’t afford it!
Three seconds later, Jiang Xinming felt pain on his face.
Also, I really can’t afford it.
Jiang Xinming looked at Qi Yunxi who was looking forward to it, and said through gritted teeth: "Sir, can I write an IOU?"
Officer A refused: "We will reach Youzhou in a few days. We will leave you there and then leave. You don't have any money, and I can't wait until you earn enough money before leaving."
Jiang Xinming's face looked grim.
It was Officer B who smoothed things over: "Why don't you just write an IOU and ask him to give you more interest so you can pay it back sooner."
Jiang Xinming said hurriedly: "Yes, I will have money in two days."
Officer A looked at him suspiciously, but finally gave Officer B some face and asked Jiang Xinming to write an IOU.
It's just the interest rate written on it...
Pay ten back if you owe one.
Jiang Xinming felt a pang of anger, but when he thought that it was not his own money that was being spent, he instantly calmed down.
Compared to the money he spent, he cared more about the admiration of Qi Yunxi and Zhong Danyue.
He asked Officer B for a moment to speak. "Thank you for your words of help earlier, sir. My family is here tonight to give me some money. Could you please be lenient with me?"
As he spoke, Jiang Xinming slipped him a silver note without leaving any trace.
After receiving the banknote, Officer B said cheerfully, "I'll be on guard tonight, so please leave as soon as possible."
Before the day was over, Jiang Xinming had spent six thousand taels. He thought that if the man in black only brought ten thousand taels, he would ask him to get some more.
Otherwise it’s not enough to spend.
Everyone was happy with the deal. Jiang Xinming was a fat sheep, the officials made a lot of money, and King Hu also made a lot of money.
He stroked his beard and said, "Wait until Jiang Xinming pays back the money, then I'll pay back what I owe. Then Aunt Bai won't be able to bother me anymore, hahahaha!"
Qi Jingcheng didn't say anything. He and Aunt Bai looked at each other, and at the same time, he rolled his eyes secretly at King Hu.
Oh, you wish!
At night, after everyone had gone to bed, Jiang Xinming said goodbye to Officer B and went into the woods alone.
As soon as he appeared, the man in black appeared, "Your Highness, I have brought the silver."
Jiang Xinming couldn't wait to ask, "How much did you take?"
The man in black said with a pained look on his face, "Twenty thousand taels."
The master said that if you want the horse to run, you must let it be well fed.
Jiang Xinming should be able to spend a long time on these 20,000 taels.
Jiang Xinming breathed a sigh of relief. "Not bad, not bad. I paid back six thousand taels, and still have more than half left."
The man in black was stunned. "What?"
