MTL - Martial Arts Master Travelled to Ancient Time and Farms-Chapter 73 Lord please reward your status
Chapter 73 Ask the Lord to reward his status
On June 30th, Cheng Ling's family finally settled down briefly in Chixia City after fleeing.
The matter of carrying luggage is simple and easy, and the key point is actually Cheng Ling's few boxes for silver coins. And, of course, their horses.
It takes a few boxes just to hold money. This not only shows that the county governor has a lot of rewards, but it also emphasizes one point: in this era...there is no silver ticket!
Bronze coins are the mainstream coins today, and silver is also used, but it is not so widely circulated. Basically, it is not large merchants or officials who use the most.
Not to mention gold, which is the upper-level currency and is often not seen by ordinary people.
In folk transactions, rice, grain, linen and silk are often used.
In short, there are various ways, and barter is not a bad idea.
Mu Sanniang was very happy to count the money. After moving to the new house, Cheng Ling divided nearly half of the remaining bounty and handed it over to her.
The county governor gathered together, how much money did Cheng Ling reward?
In fact, the total is one hundred taels of silver, plus one thousand strings of copper coins.
A string of copper coins is one hundred coins, and ten strings of coins are combined together, which is equivalent to one tael of silver.
One thousand strings of money is roughly equal to one hundred taels of silver, and Cheng Ling is considered a bounty of two hundred taels.
is not as much as the thousand taels mentioned by Manager Chen earlier, but it is not much.
Because the purchasing power of silver is really strong these days!
This money is enough for Cheng Ling to have a relatively loose starting step in Chixia City.
The rented house plus the deposit, I paid about 50 taels at a time, and the remaining money was 135 taels, plus the scattered rewards.
Among them, Cheng Ling gave Mu Sanniang fifty taels of silver and eighty-five copper coins. Mu Sanniang received twenty coins, and Cheng Ling received sixty-five coins.
Apart from these bounties, Cheng Ling actually had a lot of money on hand, all of which was collected. In addition to what has been spent, there are about ten taels of gold beads, twenty taels of silver, and other supplies.
Cheng Ling said to Mu Sanniang, "Aniang, I want to open a martial arts hall."
When the words just fell, Hong Guangyi just happened to pack a meal for them to eat at noon from the eatery at the entrance of the alley.
After sending Cheng Ling and others to move in the morning, Wang Qilang went back. He still has homework to do, so he can't be out all day.
Steward Chen also returned to Guan's house to resume his life, and he was quite reluctant to leave.
Cheng Ling said to Guanshi Chen: "If Guanshi Chen is free in two days, you might as well come to sit at home. I have a good thing, and it will take two days to get it. How about asking Guanshi Chen to appreciate it for me?"
Steward Chen was flattered and said quickly, "Thank you for your blue eyes, the younger one will definitely come over."
When these people are gone, the only ones left in the courtyard are the Cheng Ling family, Hong Guangyi and Shi Hong with their two children, and Xiao Man.
The two wounded Xiao Man and Shi Hong were placed in the room to rest as soon as they entered the yard, while Cheng Dani brought Cheng Erni and the two children to gather things.
The main thing is to clean up a few more rooms and clean up the kitchen.
Mu Sanniang put the copper coins that Cheng Ling gave her to her and hid them under the bed in her room. She also hid some of the silver next to her body. The rest were also hidden in various corners of the room.
After hiding the money, she and Cheng Ling came to the front yard, because Cheng Ling said that he would clean up a martial arts field here.
Why do you have to rent a big yard in the east of the city? It was because Cheng Ling wanted to open a martial arts hall!
Hong Guangyi heard Cheng Ling talking when he came in with the food, and he quickly approached and said, "Langjun, if you want to open a martial arts hall, just accept the younger ones as disciples!"
His tone and expression were all very excited. After finishing a sentence, without waiting for Cheng Ling to reply, he quickly said: "No, the little one is willing to be the **** of Langjun's horse, and I beg Langjun to take him in to do the trilogy. The little one must be loyal and never. Nothing wrong!"
After he finished speaking, he knelt down on his knees, put the food box on the ground beside him, and was about to bow.
Cheng Ling was about to come to help him, Hong Guangyi's eyes were sparkling, and he insisted: "I beg your husband to accept it and reward him with an identity!"
It's not that Hong Guangyi's bones are soft, on the contrary, he has waited too long for this opportunity.
Hong Guangyi later told Hong Xiaolang in private: "We are from the market, low-level people, and we don't pay attention to the future. All I know is that Cheng Langjun is a capable and affectionate person, and there is nothing wrong with following him. ."
added: "But let's follow along, we can't always take advantage of others for nothing. What can I have, your father? That is, this strength and this loyalty. In this case, you should recognize your own position."
There is no place, and everyone is embarrassed.
Cheng Ling saw determination in Hong Guangyi's eyes. After a while, she bent over to support Hong Guangyi's arm and said, "Okay, you see me as the leader, and I see you as a brother. Hong Er, get up!"
Hong Guangyi kowtowed three times firmly, and when he stood up again, his back was really straight, the whole person seemed to have found a particularly clear direction, and a kind of confidence radiated from the inside out.
At this time, I don't know what happened outside, and suddenly there was a huge collision sound.
Just listen - bang!
Mu Sanniang was startled, Hong Guangyi hurriedly said, "Let's go and have a look!"
When the voice fell, he walked away. Cheng Ling did not hesitate, and immediately followed.
Mu Sanniang walked at the end, and as she walked, she turned around and saw Cheng Dani and the others who were listening to the noise in the yard, and waved them away and said, "You go back, don't come out!"
Here, Hong Guangyi opened the gate of the yard—a small family, they don’t pay attention to the side doors, the east gate and the west gate, just a front door and a back door.
After the door opened, I saw a large trolley dumped on the street in front of me. There were five or six large buckets on the trolley, and they were all dumped to one side at the moment.
The liquid in the barrel flowed out, exuding a mixture of sweet and sour smells. In this summer, there was actually a coolness, and it smelled good.
On both sides of the street, many people have opened their doors long ago, and their probes are at the door to watch the excitement.
Someone pointed out: "It's the Wu family's father and son, the plum water was not sold out, and they were driven back..."
I saw an old man squatting beside the scooter wiping tears, and a teenage boy standing in front of the scooter, his face both flustered and stubborn.
Five or six people who looked like idlers stood opposite the two with their arms folded, giggling.
The leader shouted: "If you can't pay the money, you will pay for your house! Otherwise, you will send your sister here. In short, if you want to escape from our boss Cao's account, there is no way!"
The boy gritted his teeth and said, "It's not the debt we owe, there's no reason to ask us to pay it back!"
"Second Wu is not your uncle?" the leading idle man said, "He's gone now, shouldn't you pay back the money he owes? Don't say that the family has been separated early, and then the family will be separated, then he and your father are also an old man. The girl's birth!"
said again: "I can't bear your sister, so I will take your house out and buy it. This house is also passed down by your grandfather, and they are all surnamed Wu!"
The idlers behind him immediately chimed in: "The surname Wu is correct. Bring the house, or you will be killed. Wherever you put it, we are justified!"
"Pay back! Pay back!"
The clamor suddenly sounded like a wave, and Hong Guangyi's brows stood upright when the shock hit the door.
