Chapter 306 Neighbors and Hidden Food [4]
Xiaobai: "We have asked about it. The Mo family's ancestral home is Tianmang Mansion. Their ancestors were pass merchants, so they know Dongmo script. And his Dongmo script He learned it from his grandfather when he was young. After his grandfather passed away, he learned it by himself from books and pass merchants. He has made a name for himself. Now he not only earns money by helping the bookstore translate and write Dongmo script, but also gains some status. "
"Daughter of the Qin family, you ask this because you want to learn from Dongmo. We Xiaobai are also learning Dongmo Wen, and we have already achieved some success." Huang Yanglong said to Yourong Yan, and took the opportunity. Person: "If you want to learn Dongmowen, you can ask Xiaobai to teach you. A class only costs two taels of silver!"
Hehe, Qin Xiaomi smiled: "Two taels of silver for a class? Master Huang is worthy of being the master. The son of a great merchant is truly unrivaled in his ability to charge high prices."
Huang Yanglong screamed. Said: "Don't be so arrogant. You gave Aunt Xue one tael of silver for her medicine class. Why is our Xiaobai's class not worth two taels of silver? This is Dongmowen, and there aren't many people in Wei Dynasty. Yes, if you can meet a gentleman who knows it and is willing to teach you, just have fun!”
Qin Xiaomi glanced at him and said: "But my family can learn from Mo Xiucai. He is such a kind-hearted person, and he will definitely not accept my family as a cultivator."
Huang Yanglong choked after hearing this and wanted to be violent He got up and was stopped by Xiaobai.
Xiaobai asked Qin Xiaomi: "Qin Xiaodong, what are you worried about when you ask about Mo Xiucai and Dongmowen?"
Xiaobai is really smart, he can guess right away arrive.
However, Qin Xiaomi did not want to be fussy and shook his head: "No, I am just curious about Dongmowen and want to know more about it. Furthermore, I am afraid of meeting evil neighbors, so I want to ask for details."
Xiaobai had a good impression of Mo Xiucai: "Qin Xiaodong's family can rest assured that Mo Xiucai's family will definitely not be bad neighbors."
"That's good." Qin Xiaomi asked Huang Yanglong and the others again: "Master Huang, have you finished the donation to purchase supplies and relieve the victims outside the city? "
Huang Yanglong: "It's almost done. Once the city gate opens, we will send food and cold-proof materials to them and let them set off to settle in the resettlement place. "
Originally. It was time to set off long ago, but the government was afraid that some of the victims might be members of the Jin family, so they postponed it for a few days.
"However, things are really expensive nowadays. The prices of grain, cotton, and charcoal have almost doubled." Huang Yanglong complained.
Qin Xiaomi frowned upon hearing this. Prices doubled, which proved that things were in short supply. This was not a good thing. It might affect the battle between Xinhuang and Jiangnan... After all, people live on supplies. If this winter, Xinhuang takes Without enough supplies to support the world's supply, Jiangnan will inevitably counterattack!
Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore. If the Wei Dynasty is destroyed by the new emperor, she will run away with her family.
"Master Huang, are you familiar with banks and silver houses in Fucheng? Can you help my family exchange a hundred taels of gold?" Qin Xiaomi asked.
Huang Yanglong jumped back in shock, pointed at her and said: "You really dare to speak, and you want to exchange a hundred taels of gold!"
Qin Xiaomi said: "This is what I came to Fucheng for. One of the purposes is that if Mr. Huang has connections, please help.”
There was no way, the Wei Dynasty was not stable, and she was always afraid that her banknotes would become useless paper.
Huang Yanglong pondered for a moment and then said: "Gold is not as good as silver notes. It can be passed down from generation to generation. It is a bit difficult to exchange for a hundred taels of gold this time."
This sounds reasonable, Qin Xiaomi immediately flattered him, and Jiang Dalang was still there to help him say nice things. Huang Yanglong agreed: "Since our two families are partners, you can bring us one thousand two hundred taels of silver notes, and I will try my best to exchange them for one hundred gold coins."
One thousand taels of silver notes It can be exchanged for one hundred taels of gold, but the price of silver notes is lower than that of silver, so an extra two hundred taels are needed as spare.
"Thank you, Master Huang." Qin Xiaomi immediately went back to the wing, took out twelve hundred-tael silver notes, and handed them to Huang Yanglong: "Thank you, Master Huang."
"Wait for the news." After Huang Yanglong accepted the banknote, he took Xiaobai, the invisible Jia Xiang, and the martial arts masters from Huang Jia's family out for a wander. After Qin Xiaomi and the others finished breakfast, they also took a mule cart to Yexiang Lane.
The alley is too small for mule carts to enter, so we can only walk... The shabby alley in the west of the city is where the walls have collapsed and the houses are leaking. The whole alley is filled with an unspeakable night. fragrance.
"Hey, respectful brother, is it really you?" After seeing Second Uncle Qin, an old woman rushed out of the house, grabbed Second Uncle Qin, and stared directly at Qin Xiaomi and Grandpa Qin. , asked: "Is this your family? Look at this brand-new leather jacket, at least a dozen Two silver pieces a piece, we are really rich, brother, you are going to enjoy great blessings!"
After confirming that the Qin family was rich, the old woman hurriedly shouted into the house: "Dali, you are here! Brother Gongshun is back with his biological father, please come out and meet your elders quickly!”
Soon, a tall and thin woman ran out of the house. After seeing Uncle Qin's new coat, her eyes lit up and she immediately rushed over: "Brother Gongshun, you are back, but I was worried about you." Several days...ah!"
Aunt Qin Fei He kicked Dali away, then rushed over, grabbed her hair, and slapped her several times: "Bah, who are you calling brother? I'm standing next to you. You're blind and didn't see it. How dare you?" Lifting your legs in front of you, looking at who doesn’t know you are a bed crawler and can’t have a baby anymore? , the rags that were driven back by the master?”
The scolding made him look more fierce than the shrews in the village. Grandpa Qin was stunned. After he realized what he was doing, he hurriedly shouted: "Second daughter-in-law, stop it, don't break her."
When Dali Niang heard this, she was so happy that she immediately sat on the ground, clapped her legs and cried: "Hey, the neighbors came out to take a look. My obedient daughter-in-law has maimed my Dali. She vomited blood and was disfigured. Go and help." My family is reporting to the official!”
What the hell?
Are you blackmailing her into her family?
There really is no skill at all, it’s all forced.
Qin Xiaomi was speechless and said to Grandpa Qin: "Grandpa, we can't live in this place. Let's help the Zhao family find another place."
Grandpa Qin nodded in agreement: "Sure, we can't live here. I’m going to help the Zhao family move things today.”
If we continue to live here, Zhao’s brother, grandson, and grandson may be bullied to death by their evil neighbors.
After hearing this, Dali Niang cried again: "Neighbors, come and help me. Not only did the Gongshun family beat people, they also wanted to move away and run away in an attempt to avoid compensation!"
Qin Xiaomi was beaten by her! Shouting so hard that his eardrums hurt, he ordered Xiao Baiying: "Follow what I taught you and tell her to shut up."
"Yes." Xiao Baiying stepped forward, grabbed Dali Niang with one hand, and pinched the two acupoints on Dali Niang's neck with the other hand. Dali Niang only I felt my throat was numb and painful, and I immediately lost my voice.
Da Liniang's eyes widened in shock, and she looked at Qin Xiaomi, her eyes full of horror... The witch, the witch, could actually make her speechless.
Qin Xiaomi lowered his head, looked down at her, and smiled: "First, my family is rich, and I know the master and the foreman in the yamen. I hope your family will report it to the official, so that my family can sue you. Secondly, , my family is rich, we can spend money to rent this alley The neighbors in the house came out to testify that you deliberately blackmailed my family. Third, it is definitely not the first time you have done this, and my family is rich, so I can spend money to find people to investigate old cases you have committed. Go to jail.”
Damn it, this damn girl is openly using money to deceive others!
Da Liniang was very angry, but her family had done a lot of blackmailing. If the Qin family really spent money to investigate, she would be really scared.
Dali Niang made a begging gesture, saying that she did not dare to do it anymore.
Qin Xiaomi then asked Xiao Baiying to let her go.
“Ah ah ah, I can speak again.” After Dali Niang was sure that she could speak again, she felt relieved and did not dare to wait any longer. She hurriedly picked up Dali, whose face was swollen after being beaten, and moved her to Jia La: "Let's go, go home, don't worry about these outsiders."
