Chapter 4 Zheng Tu

Mrs. Zheng Tu called Zheng Tu a middle-aged man with a big body and a round waist. In fact, the profession of butcher should not be underestimated.

In terms of development prospects, if you look at the small ones, you will be a tyrant in the city. If you look at the big ones, if you encounter troubled times, you will probably be a powerful person who can rise up at any time and become a small warlord.

However, the Zheng Tu in front of him has just started his career, and his influence is limited to Qinjia Village and several neighboring villages in Zhengjia Village.

Recently I have begun to think about a big business and am planning to sell meat in the city.

His voice was cheerful and heroic, and when Qin Chuan opened the door, he said, "Brother Chuan, I am Zheng Tu from the next village. I wonder if you recognize me."

Qin Chuan nodded, "I have heard of Brother Zheng for a long time. Has Fourth Grandpa told you about my affairs? Is it possible that we have to go to Fucheng in advance?"

Zheng Tu waved his hand, "Old Master Qin told me about this. There are still some days before we set off. I heard Mr. Qin said that Brother Chuan can paint, so I want to ask you for a favor."

Qin Chuan said: "There will be trouble for Brother Zheng later. If you have anything to say, speak directly. If it is within your ability, Qin will definitely not refuse."

Zheng Tu: "Although Brother Chuan is a scholar, he speaks so readily, so I will tell you the truth. I saw that in the Dragon King Temple, the portrait of the Dragon King that you added ink is more beautiful than the original one. There is a new Stove King in our village.

Temple, I want to ask you to draw a portrait of the Stove King. Don’t worry, we have prepared the pen, ink and inkstone for you, and we are just waiting for you. As for the retouching fee, what do you think of 800 words?"

This is considered a high price. However, Qin Chuan charged 500 yuan for refilling the ink on the Dragon King's portrait, so 800 yuan is considered a reasonable price.

Unexpectedly, when the wolf saw Qin Chuan holding Ying Ning and was about to leave, he immediately chased after him. Zheng Tu happened to block the way, so he turned into the wolf and pounced on Zheng Tu.

Even hungry wolves cannot die anymore.

Zheng Tu counted several times in his mind and prepared to slash at the wolf, hoping to scare it away a few steps and then take the opportunity to run forward.

Qin Chuan exchanged greetings with him for a while, then simply packed up, followed Zheng Tu along the dirt road to Zheng Village with Ying Ning in his arms.

The wolf saw the butcher's knife and took a few steps back. Zheng Tu felt relieved and hurriedly urged Qin Chuan forward.

Only then did Zheng Tu realize that the hungry wolf had a stone lodged in its eye.

It turns out that wolf skins are very expensive in the market now. Looking at the size of the wolf, Zheng Tu estimated that the wolf skin could be sold for more than ten taels of silver when it was brought to the city.

When I heard Ying Ning crying, I thought it was because the baby was hungry.

Qin Chuan said: "I am weak and afraid of being bullied, so I practiced the skill of flying rocks. Fortunately, I was not bad luck just now and hit its eye. Otherwise we would be in trouble."

However, although wolf meat is very valuable, it is not as valuable as wolf skin. Zheng Tu naturally does not want to take advantage of this. He heard that Qin Chuan was going to Fucheng to study, and he wanted to stay in Fucheng regardless of whether he was admitted to be a scholar or not.

Zheng Tu said: "I heard that you come to our village every day to buy chickens, and Brother Chuan eats them yourself?"

He was about to take out a piece of maltose from his arms and give it to her.

He even smelled the stench of the wolf's breath.

Maltose is a sacrifice to the Stove Lord. When he comes, he comes out a little.

After all, Zheng Tu was a butcher who killed pigs, and he was very courageous.

Could it be Ying Ning who caused it?

He stood in front of Qin Chuan, showed the butcher knife he carried with him, and showed it to the wolf.

Regardless of whether it was true or not, Qin Chuan could not abandon Ying Ning.

Zheng Tu was considered a somewhat knowledgeable person in his village. When he saw the portrait of the Dragon King, it was not much worse than the statues in the big temples near the city.

But as soon as they moved forward, the wolf immediately followed them.

Zheng Tu really had no choice but to whisper: "Brother Chuan, I'll try to stop it. You run faster. I won't be able to stop it for long."

The pork sacrificed to the Stove King was all produced by him. With this little maltose, Zheng Tu felt confident!

The butcher knife in his hand just didn't have time to block it.

He told Qin Chuan about the price of wolf skins.

Qin Chuan didn't have such worries. He was from the countryside and would not look up when he lowered his head. There was a favor behind him that sent him to Fucheng, so he was not afraid that Qin Chuan would not pay attention to painting.

Zheng Tu said angrily: "I knew I would take a piece of meat with me when I went out, but now I can't get rid of this beast."

Zheng Tu narrowly escaped with his life and laughed loudly: "This beast deserves to die, he met Brother Chuan and I. We made a small fortune today."

Qin Chuan smiled and said, "This is a good thing. I was worried about not having enough money to study in Fucheng. Brother Zheng has solved my urgent need."

Zheng Tu looked Qin Chuan over, laughed and said, "Your complexion is indeed much better than what I remembered. You're such a young man, you're going to kill me. Besides, Brother Chuan is studying hard, it's the time to take supplements."

Really luxurious.

Unexpectedly, the hungry wolf howled loudly.

What's more, it's not easy for them to make irresponsible remarks on other people's paintings if they have a reputation as a scholar.

Strangely enough, Qin Chuan Wenwen was a weak scholar. This low shout made Zheng Tu feel like a big bell in the temple was ringing in his mind, making him very alert.

Qin Chuan said: "I heard that wolf meat is a great tonic. Why don't you give me the wolf meat and give me some fraction of the wolf skin sold by Brother Zheng?"

Zheng Tu had always wanted to go to Fucheng to develop, so naturally he wanted to make friends with Qinchuan, a fellow villager, so that he would have some kind of care for him in the future.

"Brother Chuan, you run with me, no, you go ahead."

This was a hunt that he and Qin Chuan worked together. Zheng Tu valued Qin Chuan's courage. In the situation just now, he dared to throw flying rocks. Even if it was just a chance, it was extraordinary.

She always loved to laugh, and she didn't even cry when the fox girl left. Qin Chuan felt a little strange in his heart. Zheng Tu didn't know this, he only heard that the baby adopted by Qin Chuan was said to be from the fox girl. Of course, in the village,

They always spread gossip, who knows whether it is true or false.

If he didn't want to leave Qin Chuan and Ying Ning behind, he would have definitely found a way to run away.

What's more, he will take the academy examination soon, so he won't be able to become a scholar soon.

Zheng Tu: "Brother Chuan, was it you who threw the stone just now?"

Zheng Tu was startled and suddenly saw a wolf appearing on the road behind him.

At this time, it was very troublesome to go to the city to invite a sour scholar to come to the village. Regardless of the quality of his paintings, he also had to entertain him well.

He saw that Ying Ning was very cute, carved in pink and jade, and he would not take those rumors to heart.

The wolf seemed to be extremely hungry, its eyes seemed to be glowing green, staring in the direction of Zheng Tu and the others, and the saliva in its mouth seemed to be about to flow out.

Qin Chuan shouted, "Be careful."

He knew that Qin Chuan earned 500 yuan from the Dragon King Temple's temple blessing Qin Fang, which was considered a small fortune in the village. He had been buying chickens every day recently, and seeing that he didn't raise them in the courtyard, he naturally ate them himself.

With Qinchuan's painting skills, even if he fails to pass the examination as a scholar, he can still make a living in Fucheng.

Zheng Tu saw the hungry wolf howling in pain and was aroused by Qin Chuan's words. He struck the wolf's neck hard with the butcher's knife. With this knife, he stimulated his potential and actually slashed it down and embedded it in the wolf's neck. It was not good for a moment.

Pull out.

Zheng Tuzheng took out the maltose and prepared to hand it to Qin Chuan.

I saw the wolf about to pounce on me.

"Brother Zheng, chop it quickly."

Halfway through, Ying Ning in Qin Chuan's arms suddenly started crying.

Qin Chuan said: "Thank you very much, Brother Zheng, for your kindness."

Qin Chuan's heart trembled. The wolf was not targeting the two adults, but Ying Ning.

Although he is not timid, he still feels scared when facing a wolf.

He is reluctant to eat meat every day.

Qin Chuan nodded and walked forward.

He had no choice but to draw a butcher's knife at the wolf fiercely, hoping to scare the wolf away. Unexpectedly, the wolf didn't retreat this time, but instead took a few steps forward.

Zheng Tu suddenly encountered an unexpected incident and couldn't help but feel weak.

He said: "I can't finish the meat at home, so I will process the wolf meat and send it to you. As for the wolf skins sold, I will account for 70%. What do you think, Brother Chuan?"

Qin Chuan's deficiency-replenishing skills are not limited to chicken. Wolf meat is more tonic than chicken, and the effect will only be better. It is impossible to say that relying on these wolf meat, he can improve his physique to the level of an adult as soon as possible. This wolf came at the right time, really

It can be said that you give a pillow when you feel sleepy.

Qin Chuan nodded, "I am too weak and need to be replenished."

He was anxious to eat wolf meat to nourish his body and improve his physique, but the wolf skin was really a side issue.

After this incident, Zheng Tu became closer to Qin Chuan. He carried the wolf corpse on his back, chatting and laughing with Qin Chuan all the way, and soon arrived at Zheng Village.

On the way, he met a villager and called Zheng Tu directly to help him. He couldn't help bragging about his bravery just now.

The village also became more lively because of Zheng's killing of wolves.
