Chapter 22 Chapter 22 (3/4)



Repeating the same words again, Qin Zhao sent Lin Changzhong away, closed the door, and then opened the lid of the wooden barrel.

"Did you hear everything?" Qin Zhao said, "Let's leave the village for a few days and come back when the situation calms down."

The little koi nodded, feeling a little guilty.

He couldn't help at all, and Qin Zhao had to find a way to solve the problem on his own.

The sickly boy's health is so poor, I wonder if it will get worse if he runs around outside for a few days.

Jing Li suddenly felt very depressed.

.

Lin Laoer was one of the first people in the village to have a good impression of Qin Zhao. After hearing about this, he quickly drove the ox cart over.

He was even very eager to go with Qin Zhao so that he could take care of him.

Qin Zhao didn't agree.

Lin Laoer had to go up the mountain to chop firewood every day. The trip back and forth took several days, which cut off his income.

The Lin family has helped him a lot, and Qin Zhao doesn't want to trouble him anymore.

But before leaving, Qin Zhao did another thing.

He deliberately mentioned the town's bounty on fish in front of Lin Lao Er, saying that the fish looked very similar to the one he had bought before, but unfortunately he had already released it.

The tone was quite regretful.

Lin Lao Er had no doubt at all. He first sighed that things in the world are impermanent, and then comforted him for a long time.

News in the village always spread quickly. If someone came to ask Qin Zhao with ulterior motives, it was unlikely that he would tell others about it. Even if Qin Zhao left for a few days, if the matter was not resolved when he returned, someone would still ask about it.

But if Qin Zhao took the initiative to release this news, the entire Linxi Village would know about it within half a day.

Anyway, there was always something new to talk about in the village every day, and by the time he returned to the village two or three days later, the matter had already calmed down.

As it happens, Lin Lao Er is a person who can't hide things.

After seeing Qin Zhao off, he returned home and the first thing he said to his wife was, "Did you know that the town is offering a reward for a carp worth a thousand gold coins? Qin Zhao..."

.

From Linxi Village to Shanglin Village, there were villages along the way, and the scenery was very beautiful. Qin Zhao still had time to spare, so he walked slowly and steadily.

Jing Li was placed in a small wooden barrel, and would occasionally stick his head out to take a look.

He was surprised to find that Qin Zhao could actually drive cattle, and his driving was more steady than any ox cart he had ridden before.

I discovered another strange skill of this person.

They set out in the morning and arrived at Shanglin Village just as sunset was setting.

There happened to be an old man enjoying the cool air at the entrance of the village. Seeing that he was a stranger, he couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

Qin Zhao didn't care and stepped forward to explain his purpose.

"So you're looking for Lin Daniu?" The old man raised his hand and pointed, "Go straight down this road. Turn right at the intersection and it's the third house."

Qin Zhao thanked him and quickly followed the path the old man pointed out to find Lin Daniu's house.

Lin Daniu is a distant relative of Lin Changzhong's family. He often purchases goods from him, so the two families are quite familiar with each other.

After reading the letter from Lin Changzhong, Lin Daniu said, "Changzhong has already said it in this letter. I still have some bamboo here, but it hasn't been processed yet. It's all raw. It's too late today. I'll help you process it tomorrow, and I can hire someone to transport it to Linxi Village for you the day after tomorrow."

Qin Zhao: "Thank you very much."

Lin Daniu added, "You can stay at my house for the next two days. There happens to be an empty room in the backyard."

It's already dark, and it's not easy to find a place to stay now, and...

The little koi fish was covered in a wooden barrel, occasionally tapping the barrel wall with its tail.

He is so hungry...

Although Qin Zhao brought dry food, they had delayed for too long. By the afternoon, they had almost no time to rest in order to reach Shanglin Village before dark.

Not to mention eating.

Qin Zhao held the lid of the wooden barrel and said to Lin Daniu, "Thank you very much."

Lin Daniu's house is just an ordinary farmhouse. There is a separate small house on the other side, which is a temporary resting place for carpenters hired to polish wood.

He led Qin Zhao over and said, "Don't be surprised if this place is a little shabby."

Qin Zhao shook his head and said "No". In fact, this place was much better than his little house.
