"Brother Zhang, it's done, we're done! Haha! You're not hurt, are you?"
While Li Yuanjing was excited, he also did not forget to check Zhang Kun's status.
Zhang Kun's legs were weak at this time, and he sat on the ground, breathing heavily and said:
"Master, I'm fine, are you okay?"
Li Yuanjing carefully checked Zhang Kun's body and saw that he was indeed not injured. He couldn't help laughing excitedly and directly called Yuniang and the other three girls:
"Yu Niang, the three of you quickly go to the old village chief and ask him to bring someone over! We made a fortune today! Hahaha!"
"Hey, good!"
…
Not long after.
The old village chief came here with more than twenty young men.
When Mu Ran saw three big wolves and one small wolf in the trap, everyone including the old village chief was dumbfounded.
It is no secret that game and leather goods are expensive these days.
Even if these villagers don't know the specific price, they have an idea.
These four wolves have lost at least a dozen taels of silver.
What is this concept?
Everyone looked at Li Yuanjing with unspeakable envy and jealousy.
The old village chief couldn't help but sigh and praise:
"Yuan Jing, Yuan Jing, after all, you still have to study. After all, it is the scholars who have the best brains."
Seeing Li Yuanjing standing tall in the crowd, it felt like he was being held in high esteem by the stars.
This way.
Yuniang's little face couldn't help but blush, and her eyes looking at Li Yuanjing were full of inextricable admiration and affection.
My brother has really succeeded. Now, even the old village chief respects him so much.
Li Yuanjing seemed to have rich experience in dealing with this kind of situation. He even promised that if the wolves were sold tomorrow and the money was paid, everyone who came to help tonight would benefit, and it would not be less than a hundred dollars.
This immediately made the crowd even more excited and restless.
Especially after hearing that Zhang Kun was already the long-term employee of Li Yuanjing's family, all these young men showed great respect to Li Yuanjing, as if they had regarded Li Yuanjing as a squire.
but.
When Li Yuanjing was greeting everyone and preparing to kill all the four wolves in the trap that were not yet dead, the old village chief stopped Li Yuanjing.
He pulled Li Yuanjing aside and whispered:
"Yuan Jing, you can't kill these wolves directly. If the wolf skin is disfigured, the price will drop. It took a lot of effort to catch these wolves, but you can't blind the good stuff."
Li Yuanjing realized instantly that what the old village chief said was right.
Especially the gray and white wolf king!
Although its legs were lame at this time and it was whining like a dog in the trap, when Li Yuanjing set the trap before, it was not a 'dead trap' and left a lot of 'safe zones'.
This means that the gray and white wolf king did not suffer any damage at this time. The fur is very complete and can definitely be sold at a good price.
"Old village chief, what should I do? Please teach me..."
Li Yuanjing naturally understood what to do at this time, but he still respectfully asked the old village chief for advice.
Seeing that Li Yuanjing had made a fortune and was still so respectful to him, the old village chief became more and more satisfied. He smoked a dry pipe and stroked his beard and said confidently:
"Yuan Jing, this matter is easy to handle. These beasts can't come up anyway, so we'll stay here tonight. When they're hungry and faint in the morning, they'll be beaten to death with a stick!"
"Old village chief. Either Jiang is old or spicy. You are wise! My nephew has learned a lesson."
Li Yuanjing flattered him at the right time.
"Hahaha."
The old village chief suddenly smiled from ear to ear and became even more cheerful.
…
It was almost sleepless in Quanzi Village that night.
But instead of feeling tired at all, everyone was filled with endless excitement.
Li Yuanjing made this promise several times in front of everyone.
Every young man who comes to help tonight will be rewarded with a hundred dollars after selling the wolf. This is by no means a small amount for these villagers.
The next morning.
These four wolves were already dying. The old village chief personally took action and had people net these wolves first, and then kill them one by one with a stick.
When everyone carried the four wolves to the village, several fur traders who had heard the news and had arrived immediately surrounded Li Yuanjing.
"Shusheng Li, sell these wolves to me, I'll pay eighteen taels!"
"Li Shusheng, sell it to me, I'll pay twenty taels!"
"Bah, you black-hearted people, this gray and white wolf king alone is worth twenty taels. Li Shusheng, you sell it to me, I will pay thirty-two taels..."
As the fur traders kept bidding, the people watching were completely dumbfounded.
Although they knew that wolf skins were expensive, how could they have imagined that they would be so expensive?
Thirty-two taels of silver...
What is this concept?
This is really an astronomical figure that one would never dare to dream about.
"Damn it, God is blind!"
"Young master, I am very capable. Why didn't God give me this kind of luck? Instead, I gave Li Yuanjing, that bastard who doesn't want to urinate, so much poverty..."
Of course Lu Gang is here today.
But when he saw Li Yuanjing standing among the crowd, he felt as if he was being held in high esteem by the stars, as if he had become a successful man. His heart was like a rag in a traditional Chinese medicine store - full of mixed feelings.
I couldn't help but curse harshly.
"What are you talking about, you bastard?"
"Didn't you hear what dad said, Li Yuanjing has a great future? What if someone hears what you said?"
However, as soon as Lu Gang finished speaking, a beautiful figure next to him glared at him and scolded him.
If it's not his sister Lianhua, who is it?
Although Lu Gang is two years older than Lianhua, he has been overshadowed by Lianhua since he was a child because of Lianhua's temper.
at this time.
After being reprimanded by Lian Hua, he really didn't dare to refute. He felt more disgusted than eating a fly, but there was nothing he could do about it...
I simply closed my eyes and couldn't see anything anymore.
Li Yuanjing naturally had no time to pay attention to the Lu Gang brothers and sisters at this time. He was quietly watching the performance of these fur traders.
Although this group of fur traders have raised the price of these wolves to thirty-five taels of silver, Li Yuanjing understands very well!
This gray and white wolf king alone is worth at least fifty taels!
And if this gray and white wolf king does not have that gray color, but pure white, let alone fifty taels, five hundred taels is normal.
such a pity.
In this world, it is never possible for you to have all the benefits and perfection.
At this time, the official, Mr. Ma, and others were all smiling and talking to Li Yuanjing with nice and flattering words.
no way.
Even among them, who has seen so much silver?
"Yo ho."
"It's quite lively. It seems that a certain family has arrived not too late."
Just when everyone was about to start a quarrel.
Not far away, a familiar face riding a small donkey and escorted by six or seven domestic servants came here with a smile.
"ah?"
"Mr. Wang."
"Mr. Wang, you are here too..."
Including the old village chief and these fur traders, everyone hurriedly saluted the visitors respectfully.
It was Wang Youdao, an old acquaintance of Li Yuanjing.
Li Yuanjing's eyelids twitched slightly.
He originally didn't want to go through Wang Youdao's channels for this matter, but he didn't expect that this old guy's nose would be so long.
He smiled busily and went over to salute Wang Youdao.
Wang Youdao exchanged a few words with Li Yuanjing, then immediately raised his hands to everyone and said:
"Everyone, everyone, after Yuan Jing is my old friend, he can also be regarded as the nephew of my king. In the future, if something happens, please take care of me, my nephew."
"Wow!"
As soon as Wang Youdao said this, the whole place was in an uproar.
Li Yuanjing always said before that he was related to Wang Youdao, but apparently not many people really believed it.
after all.
What is Wang Youdao's identity?
How could he possibly have anything to do with Li Yuanjing, a poor scholar?
However……
At this time, Wang Youdao actually directly helped Li Yuanjing to stand up. Who else could, who dared to say anything more?
Li Yuanjing was also a little confused.
I really didn’t expect Wang Youdao to be like this.
but.
Now that Wang Youdao had taken a liking to this gray and white wolf king, Li Yuanjing could only give up the idea of raising prices with these fur merchants and respectfully said to Wang Youdao:
"Uncle Wang, if you like these wolves, just take them."
Wang Youdao smiled and said:
"My dear nephew, don't worry. I happened to be a little thirsty when I came here. My dear nephew, would you like to go to your house for a cup of tea?"
How smart is Li Yuanjing?
How can we not understand the profound meaning of Wang Youdao?
This is a price negotiation.
Busily he cupped his hands and said with a smile:
"Uncle Wang, that humble house is really full of splendor. Please come over here!"
