Chapter 374 Silver Goods 2 Ended
Chapter 374 Silver Goods 2 Ended
Considering the last experience of being followed out of the village, Xu Yuan brought a hatchet with him when he went to Zhuhou Village this time and hid it in his backpack.
It’s better to pick up a knife than to be empty-handed.
I have already dealt with those people severely last time, but I am afraid that they will not change their minds. If it happens again, Xu Yuan will not show mercy.
An hour later, they arrived at Zhuhou Village.
It was already past noon and it was already the afternoon. They had only some steamed buns bought from the county town for lunch, as well as some Japanese sweets and laifu. Xu Yuan asked Uncle Wang to help take care of the food.
Chen Biyun sat in the back, looking around curiously.
There were no villagers on the road along the way. There were only some free-range chickens and ducks walking on the roadside, and the doors of all the houses were closed.
There is still some wheat in the wheat field, some are empty and some are full, so there is still work to do.
"Make a wish, so the sickle is used to cut the wheat?" Chen Biyun looked at the large wheat field and thought, if there was no sickle and only relying on the sickle, it would take a lot of time.
"Ah."
"You are really amazing. You can think of such a useful tool." Chen Biyun praised.
Xu Yuan followed the address given by Lin Chengzhou and drove the ox cart straight to his home.
The further you go in that direction, the denser the population becomes, almost like you are passing by someone else's doorstep.
"Wang..."
A dog suddenly barked towards Xu Yuan, and the sound was getting closer.
"Go, go, go." Chen Biyun waved her hands from behind with a fierce tone, but it had no effect at all. She still kept chasing the ox cart.
Xu Zhi looked at the car and suddenly saw a few pieces of dirt. He picked them up and threw them in the direction of the dog, "Let's go, don't chase it."
Xu Yuan was not affected and he was still driving the ox cart slowly and steadily.
The dog seemed to be hit by Xu Zhi's clod of mud. It screamed in pain and ran away with its tail between its legs.
"Really? If I can't drive them away, they'll just ask for a beating. Are the dogs in this village so vicious?" Chen Biyun muttered.
"Not to mention dogs, there are also geese, they are all very fierce." Xuyuan reminded.
"Really? Then I have to keep an eye on it." Chen Biyun replied with a chuckle.
……
It was the hottest time of the day at noon, even the breeze was hot. Finally we arrived at the bamboo forest path, where the temperature suddenly became cool, and the bamboo leaves rustled.
After walking a little further, I finally saw a detached house. There were other families around it, but they were scattered and not concentrated together.
Xuyuan stopped in front of the door and knocked on it.
Chen Biyun and Xu Zhi also jumped out of the car. Chen Biyun looked around, stamped her feet, and couldn't help but say, "The environment here is pretty good, but there are a lot of mosquitoes."
Xu Zhi saw that Chen Biyun was surrounded by those small mosquitoes and asked, "Sister Biyun, don't you have any mosquito repellent?"
"Yes, it shouldn't have any effect, Xiaozhi, do you have any more?"
"Yes." Xu Zhi took out a small medicine bag from the cloth bag and handed it to Chen Biyun.
Xu Yuan waited for a while and knocked on the door again, but still got no response. Thinking that most people would have taken a nap at this time, he had to give up. Just as he was about to leave, he heard hurried footsteps from inside and a voice, "Who is it? Wait a minute, they're coming."
It was the voice of a young boy.
The gate opened, revealing a shirtless young boy whom Xuyuan recognized.
"Long time no see." Xu Yuan greeted the young boy.
Lin Chunhe looked up and saw a familiar face, a little surprised, "Sister Xu, why are you here?" The next second he realized that he was not wearing a top, and his face turned red.
Chen Biyun and Xu Zhi, who were standing behind, also stepped forward to greet Lin Chunhe.
"Hello, sister Xiaozhi, hello, sister, please wait a moment, I will go back and put on my clothes and come right back."
Without waiting for everyone's reaction, the courtyard door was gently closed, and then Lin Chunhe ran quickly to his room.
The three people outside looked at each other and laughed softly.
Xu Yuan didn't mind, but the boy became shy.
If it weren't for the balance that hadn't been paid, Xu Yuan would have liked to give it directly to that boy.
It didn't take long to wait, the gate opened soon.
"Sisters, please come in and sit down. I have already called my father to get up." Lin Chunhe opened the gate and invited the three to come in.
Xu Yuan walked in holding Dahua. The yard was quite large, with wheat drying on the ground. There was also a shed for parking livestock carts next to it. Xu Yuan took the saddle off the cart and tied up Dahua.
There was also a big tree with wooden tables and benches placed underneath. Lin Chunhe asked the three to sit down and poured a bowl of warm water for each of them.
"Sorry for the wait, Miss Xu."
Lin Chengzhou came over with a basket of loquats and put it on the table.
"Uncle Lin, the saber you ordered from me last time has been made. You can go and check it out." Xu Yuan went straight to the point.
"Why bother to test? I trust you. Take it." Lin Chengzhou handed the rest of the silver and money to Xu Yuan without saying a word.
Xu Yuan took out a pen and ink and wrote two receipts. After they confirmed them with Lin Chengzhou, they both put their fingerprints on the receipts, and the transaction was considered completed.
Chen Biyun, who was watching from the side, also gained some insights and realized that this was the right way to do it.
"Okay, now that we've gotten it done, we won't bother you anymore. We'll be leaving first."
"Have you come here to eat? Do you want me to make something for you to fill your stomach?" Lin Chengzhou put away the receipt and asked.
"We've eaten, so we won't bother you."
"Okay, be careful on the road. Also, Miss Xu, don't go to the west of the village when you are in a hurry. It's not safe there." Lin Chengzhou gave some instructions, and then took the loquats on the table to Xuyuan's car, "I don't have anything good to treat you, take these loquats back and eat them."
"Got it. We won't go that way. Thank you, Uncle Lin."
"Sister Xu, are you leaving now?" Lin Chunhe walked over and asked.
"Yes, let's go and see Grandma Ye, and then go back." Xu Yuan replied, leading Dahua out of the shed.
"Then Sister Xu, please be careful on the road."
After saying goodbye to Lin Chun and Lin Chengzhou, father and son, Xu Yuan and his group walked towards Ye Qiuer's house.
……
Ye Qiuer's home is not far from Lin Chengzhou's home. Just turn a corner and walk a little further to get there. This is the only family around.
There were several racks placed on a large open space outside, with long strips of wheat hanging on them, which was quite spectacular. In another place, wheat was being dried in the sun.
Xu Zhi and Chen Biyun asked in confusion at the same time, "What are those?"
Xuyuan gave the answer, "This is dried noodles."
The gate of the courtyard was not closed, so Xuyuan knocked on the door.
