"I have long said that Xiaorou's inability to bask in the sun means that she was born to be wealthy. How about it? Do you believe it now?"
Jin Feng pointed at the women around him and said, "I don't want anyone to talk nonsense and say she is a disaster star in the future!"
"I believe it, I believe it. After you receive the reward, come back and bring me a white flour steamed bun. From now on, when I see your wife, I can call her Grandma the God of Wealth."
A tough village woman started teasing.
"Even if I don't bring you white-flour buns, you still have to call her Grandma the God of Wealth from now on!"
"Why?"
"Just because you can make money from her in the future and live a good life."
"Then I'll wait."
"Don't worry, I won't keep you waiting too long." Jin Feng said confidently.
As a time traveler, Jin Feng would definitely not stay in this small ravine. This is just the starting point, not the end.
No matter what he does, he will definitely not be able to do it alone. When the time comes, many people in Xihewan will find jobs with him and get their wages from Guan Xiaorou.
If Guan Xiaorou is not their God of Wealth grandma, what is she?
But now the women all thought that Jin Feng was bragging, and no one really took it to heart. They all turned to see Zhang Liang, who had just gone up the mountain, kowtowing to his mother.
Life was difficult for the Zhang family. As the mainstay of the family, he had to work in the fields until dark every day before returning home.
As soon as I arrived at the door of my house, I heard a tiger roaring in the back mountain.
His mother, wife, brothers and sisters were all still digging wild vegetables in the back mountain, and Zhang Liang's heart felt cold.
Only after he rushed to the back mountain did he realize that Jin Feng had saved his whole family.
After comforting my mother, Zhang Mancang, who was still wearing his pants, squeezed through the crowd and came to Jin Feng. He hit his chest hard with his remaining right arm:
"Brothers of the Jin family, I will never thank you for your kindness. From now on, Zhang Liang's life will be yours. If anything happens, just give me your orders!"
This is the highest etiquette in the military.
"Brother Liang, my sister-in-law is Xiaorou's cousin. We are a family. Doesn't that mean we are strangers?"
These words were just the simplest polite words in later generations, but they really touched Zhang Liang's heart.
The two disabled people in the Zhang family are having a hard time in the village. The women who dig wild vegetables are reluctant to join the Zhang family's aunts because they dig too fast.
Over the years, Zhang Liang has seen too many human relationships, and he cherishes the kindness of others even more.
Jin Feng risked his life to save his family, and then said these words, which moved Zhang Liang to his heart.
The village chief looked at this scene and laughed so hard that he couldn't even see his eyes.
Over the years, has any tiger descended from the mountain and not snatched a few people away?
Only this time, the village didn't even form a tiger hunting team, but the tiger was killed without even hurting anyone.
Without Jin Feng's words, the villagers spontaneously found hemp ropes and poles and carried the tiger to Jin Feng's home.
Guan Xiaorou took out the peanut wedding candy she brought back in the morning and entertained everyone lively.
Although her face was still red with embarrassment, she looked like a hostess and was teased by the women.
"Jin Feng, who do you think you should take with you to the county government?"
The village chief pulled Jin Feng aside and asked in a low voice.
The sale of the tiger and the bounty were a large sum of money. According to the rules, Jin Feng had to take care of the food for those who followed him to the county government. If he was sensible, he would be given some red envelopes.
These days, there are not many opportunities to have a full meal, so going to the county government is not a good job, and the village chief cannot make his own decisions.
"Please, village chief, Brother Tiezi, Brother Six and Brother Liang, please go together."
Jin Feng smiled and decided on the candidate.
Needless to say, the village chief was definitely going, so he brought his son Liu Tie with him as a favor. After all, he would have to work in the village in the future.
Chen Laoliu is a hunter. He goes to the county government several times every year to sell animal skins. He is well-connected, so it is appropriate to bring him along.
The village chief was a little surprised that Jin Feng was willing to take the one-armed Zhang Liang with him, but since Jin Feng had made the decision, the village chief could not refute it.
It was already midnight when we sent away the villagers.
"Xiaorou, do you want to bring something?"
Jin Feng helped Guan Xiaorou pack her things and asked casually.
It’s not easy to go to the county government these days, and many people can’t go there more than once in their lifetime.
"There is food at home, there is nothing to bring..."
Before she finished speaking, Guan Xiaorou seemed to think of something: "Can the head of the house bring a candied haws?"
"Okay," Jin Feng remembered it in his mind and asked with a smile, "What, are you greedy?"
"My little sister got sick two years ago. My father took her to the county government to see a doctor. I ate candied haws on a stick once. After I came back, I always talked about it, saying that it would be great if I could eat candied haws on a stick again in my life."
Guan Xiaorou's voice lowered: "When I left, her health became worse and worse. The old people in the village said that she would not survive this year... Boss, if you come back from the county government, I can go back and see my little sister."
?"
"sure."
Jin Feng hugged Guan Xiaorou into his arms: "I'll go with you."
My first meal here was food bought with my mother-in-law's private money, so I had to go and visit her anyway.
Before dawn the next day, the village chief rushed to Jin Feng's house with his son Liu Tie, hunters Chen Laoliu and Zhang Liang.
Chen Laoliu was also pushing a large cart.
Guan Xiaorou was earlier than them, and the wheat porridge had been cooked and put on the table.
"Xiaorou, I guess I won't be able to come back tonight. If you're afraid, just go and stay with your cousin for one night."
The straight-line distance from Xihewan to the county capital is only more than twenty miles, but there is a canyon in the middle, so we can only take a detour.
In this way, the journey becomes more than 40 miles, and most of it is on narrow mountain roads. It will definitely not be possible to return in one day.
"Um."
Guan Xiaorou nodded obediently.
The mountain road is rugged and narrow, and in many places it is not much wider than a cart. It is difficult to walk with a tiger pulling several hundred kilograms. Fortunately, we did not encounter bandits who robbed the road along the way. It took a few people more than six hours until mid-afternoon.
After walking more than thirty miles of mountain road.
Turning around the foot of the mountain, the outline of a city appeared in the distance.
This is Jinchuan County, the county seat that governs Xihewan.
The county capital is not big, only three or four miles in length and width, and cannot even compare with many towns in later generations.
However, the city wall made of large blue bricks is five or six meters high. The surface is full of pits and there are traces of swords, axes and burns and smoke everywhere, as if telling the story of the battles that took place in the past.
This is obviously a military city.
When we got onto the official road, there were more people on the road, and Jin Feng's cart took up a small part of the road.
The land of Sichuan and Sichuan is mountainous, tigers are infested, and the people have been suffering from tigers for a long time.
Seeing the cart pulling such a big tiger, passers-by gave way to show their respect for the hero who killed the tiger.
This greatly satisfied Orion and Liu Tie's vanity. They held their heads high and held their chests high, as if they were tiger-fighting heroes.
Several people entered the county town from the east gate, pulled the cart and went straight to the county government office in the center of the city.
The people who watched the excitement crowded into the county government office, and hunting tigers was to eliminate harm for the people. The government officials did not dare to embarrass Jin Feng and the others. After examining the tiger's body, they cut off the tiger's tongue and gave him the three-string reward.
