Chapter 685 Selling glutinous rice is faster than stealing money, and it is not illegal, so I sell glutinous rice
The Baihe villagers who surrounded Ouyang Fei and his party said to Ouyang Fei with a sad face: "Hero Ouyang, in fact, Han Yixian has told us before that glutinous rice can cure corpse poison, and many people want to buy glutinous rice."

"But except for Luo Ji Rice Store, we can't go out of the village to buy glutinous rice in the neighboring village. If we encounter a corpse demon, wouldn't it be over? But the price of rice outside the Luo family has more than doubled, and we really have nothing to do. Fa is alive!"

Hearing what the villagers said, Ouyang Fei narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded slowly. Ling'er beside him asked suspiciously: "If brother Ouyang didn't come, would there really be no one to deal with the corpse demon?"

An old woman folded her palms together and said, "Amitabha, Amitabha, if the masters of the Jade Buddha Temple are willing to pity the believers, they may be able to deal with the corpse demon in Heishui Town, but unfortunately... Sigh."

Another old man said disdainfully: "Jade Buddha Temple? A group of monks in that ruined temple only eat fast and chant Buddha, expecting them to eliminate demons? It's a dream."

The old woman hurriedly waved her hands and said: "No, no, this is too blasphemy to the Buddha. The master of the Jade Buddha Temple is powerful, I have seen it before."

No one paid any attention to the devout woman, and everyone said one after another: "No one can rely on you now, so I'm counting on you, Ouyang, and please be merciful, except for the corpse monster, save us Baihe village." life."

Ouyang Fei nodded and said: "Don't worry, everyone, I will do my best, but before getting rid of the corpse monster, I still have to solve the current problem first."

Lin Yueru snorted, "The corpse sucks human blood, but the corpse inside even sucks human bone marrow."

As soon as this remark came out, all the villagers couldn't help applauding, saying: "The lady hero is absolutely right."

"This fat walking zombie is worse than a zombie!"

"It's more than just knocking us dry, it's basically going to have to be screwed thoroughly before we give up."

Hearing a commotion outside, the two men in the hall who were reconciling accounts stopped and looked outside. The man who turned over the account book put the account book down heavily and came out with his robes lifted.

The fat man who dialed the abacus rushed out with a heavy abacus and followed behind him.

The man who walked out first was of medium stature, his well-maintained face could not tell his age, but there was a hint of meanness in his pair of shining eyes.

Seeing him, the villagers all fell silent, and some of them apologized and said with a smile: "Mr. Luo, you made a fortune."

Luo Yuanwai raised his face, looked at Ouyang Fei and his party arrogantly, and asked slowly: "Are you from other places?"

Ouyang Fei folded his arms around his chest, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth, and said, "That's right, what advice does Luo Yuanwai have?"

Luo Yuanwai smiled slightly, his eyes were originally pierced, and his face was even more bland, like a snake staring at its prey, and said: "Is it because you came to us to buy glutinous rice? Is there a corpse demon too?"

Hearing this, Ouyang Fei understood Luo Yuanwai's mentality better. He wished that everyone in the world would be threatened by corpse demons so that he would never be able to make money. Such a black heart and selfishness made Ou Jingyan and others even more furious. .

Ouyang Fei said lightly: "Just before the tea time, the village was almost attacked by a group of corpses, did you know that?"

Luo Yuanwai laughed and said, "Didn't the two young heroes promise not to let the corpse demon invade the village? Then why should I worry? Besides, my house is full of glutinous rice. Don't be afraid."

Ouyang Fei glanced at Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru, and said noncommittally: "Nowadays, evildoers are making trouble, people are in panic, and your family is rich, so it's fine if you don't help the poor. You also take the opportunity to drive up the price of rice and make a lot of black-hearted money. You are not afraid of the retribution of heaven." ?"

Luo Yuanwai had heard such words many times and said: "Sir, what you said is really ridiculous. I didn't call the corpse demon here. When there was a zombie demon in Heishui Town, what happened to the people here? Not yet. It’s all about gloating and not taking it seriously.”

"I was worried, so I quickly bought all the glutinous rice in the vicinity. If I hadn't stocked up so much, how would there be enough for the whole village now? I had the foresight to become the lifesaver of the village."

Ou Jingyan said unhappily: "Hmph, that's really great. You need so much money to save your life. What if you have no money? Are you going to save it or not?"

"Life is priceless, and those who want to live must show a little sincerity!" Luo Yuanwai said shamelessly.

Ouyang Fei laughed, it's shameless enough, I like it, in this way, I won't have the slightest psychological burden if I take you under the knife.

"Well said, this man, if you want to get rich, you have to throw away your face first. You are shameless, no wonder you can become the richest man in Baihe Village. Then, I want to buy glutinous rice now, will you sell it?"

For Ouyang Fei's ridicule, Luo Yuanwai was not ashamed, but rather proud, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your appreciation. If you want to buy rice, I will naturally sell it, but I don't know how much you want to buy?"

Ouyang Feiyun said calmly: "I will buy as much as you have."

Luo Yuanwai was startled, and then smiled again, "So you want to be a hero who saves the common people, well, I like a hero like you who is willing to fight for justice. My rice is a bit expensive, but I don't know if you can get out of it." Affordable price."

Ouyang Fei spread his hands and said, "Just ask for a price."

"10 taels." Luo Yuanwai raised a finger and said with a smile: "As long as you can pay 10 taels, I will immediately open the granary and let you use it."

The surrounding villagers immediately burst into an uproar, and Xiaoyao said angrily, "10 taels, why don't you grab it?"

"Hey, it's just because selling glutinous rice is faster than robbing it and it's not illegal, that's why I sold the glutinous rice instead of robbing it." Officer Luo said Shiran.

Someone shouted: "The glutinous rice in your granary is worth more than 2000 taels at most. Even if you sell it at your current price, it only costs 3 taels. If you ask for 10 taels, your heart is too dark!"

"That's right, Master Ouyang, you must not listen to him, he is talking like a lion!"

Ouyang Fei's expression remained unchanged, he raised his hand to stop the villagers' words, and said, "Mr. Luo, this is not considered a lion's big mouth. You haven't seen what a lion's big mouth is! It's settled like that, 10 taels, I wanted."

As soon as Ouyang Fei's words came out, there was a sudden silence around him. Even Luo Yuanwai was a little dazed. He was really willing to offer 10 taels?
You know, in those days, an ordinary family could maintain their living with a monthly income of one tael or five taels, and a monthly income of three taels of silver was equivalent to that of the white-collar workers of later generations, and a monthly income of ten taels was considered a well-off family.

Calculated based on the monthly income of 120 taels, the annual income is 100 taels, and it takes 2000 years to earn 10 taels. This 800 taels of silver is already equal to the income of a well-off family for more than 2 years. This is definitely a huge sum of money. In later generations, it will be more than [-] million Huaxia coins.

How much glutinous rice can be bought with [-] million Huaxia coins?It has to be pulled by a train, and it can't be finished after three or five trips.

Luo Yuan's heart was dark, and a person who could give out 10 taels without changing his face was definitely not an ordinary person!
"Young master, are you... really willing to pay 10 taels for my warehouse of glutinous rice?" Luo Yuanwai asked cautiously.

Ouyang Fei nodded and said, "Not bad."

"Then, do you want to pay a deposit first and sign a document, or pay it all in one hand?" Luo Yuanwai has made up his mind. Once he gets the money, he will fly away immediately and become a rich man in another place where no one knows him.

"Of course it's paid off with one hand."

"Chong"

After Ouyang Fei said these words, he pulled out the Doomsday Sword in Ou Jingyan's hand beside him with lightning speed. In a flash, he was in front of Yuan Luo. He put the long sword on his shoulder and said calmly: "Then Now, let’s discuss how much your head is worth.”
