Rebirth: Don't Be the Best

Chapter 97 The Rich Man

Naturally, Huang Tianhang didn't have so much silver on him, so what he paid was also a bank note. Zhang Shu could already identify the authenticity of the bank note, so there was no need to look for others.

一共一千160七两银子,黄天杭给了他两张500两,一张100两,一张50两,和一张20两的银票。章树找了他三两银子。

Although Huang Tianhang said no, Zhang Shu insisted on giving it. Favors belong to favors, and business belongs to business. If this is confused, it will be difficult to handle things in the future.

After the hard work of more than 100 people, they finally weighed [-] catties of vermicelli on this day, tied them up, wrapped them in oiled paper, put them in sacks and tied the mouth of the sacks.

The two big warehouses of Zhang Shu's family were piled up to the brim, and they had to wait for the next day to be pulled by bullock carts to the river for loading.

These few days, Xiaohu was borrowed to look at the backyard, because those puppies were still relatively young.

The little tiger was brought down by Li Yan at night, and no one else saw it, just in case.If someone played tricks at this juncture, Zhang Shu would suffer a lot.Although it is not possible to go bankrupt, it is indeed inevitable to lose one thousand five hundred and six hundred taels of silver at once. No one will be able to afford it anymore. This is money that ordinary people will never see in their lifetime.

When Xiaohu entered the backyard, he was untied from the rope.Li Yan let it surround the barn, and it was very obedient and only moved around here.

The other puppies surrounded Xiaohu and didn't bark at all, so others didn't know there was another litter of dogs here.

In the dead of night, a sound suddenly came from the courtyard wall near the small river. Xiaohu was lying on the ground, but his ears suddenly pricked up, his head was also facing the direction of the small river, and he watched without blinking.

"...Why don't you leave, what are you doing?"

"...Boss Wang...this...is not good, folks in the village, if someone finds out, the village chief will definitely not let us go..."

"What's the matter... far away from that... just leave after finishing work... who knew it was us..."

"Did you forget... When his family was recruiting... they just didn't hire us... How embarrassing..."

The cold night wind sent a few low whispers, which were full of resentment and a hint of drunkenness.

……

As the saying goes, wine is strong and cowardly.

A few bums in the village, Wang Changfa, Zhu Dabao, Lai Er, Yang Ming and others mixed together.

They all lost money in the casino, went to the tavern to drink a meal of bad wine, and then went back to the village together.

When they passed by the small river, they saw the magnificent courtyard wall of Zhang Shu's house, and each of them took a sip.

They never imagined that the counselor in the village would still have this day.Ever since Zhang Shu came to the fore, they saw him like a mouse seeing a cat, they didn't even dare to look at him directly, so they dared to spit at his house indiscriminately like they are now.

They were very angry at Zhang Shu's different treatment. Obviously, everyone looked down on him before, so why didn't they just accept them?Unfortunately, when they gambled in the town, when people asked about the vermicelli workshop in their village, they dared not answer.

A group of drunks staggered and wanted to leave again, when someone suddenly said, "How about we add some traffic to his house?"

As soon as these words came out, they won everyone's approval.They are idiots, and what idiots are best at is stealing, eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, and making things difficult for others.

Several people hurriedly climbed up the courtyard wall and turned over one by one.

However, when standing inside the several-meter-high courtyard wall of Zhang Shu's house, the ambition just now seemed to be taken away by the cold wind, and there was nothing left.

……

After the few people finished talking, they finally decided to follow what Wang Changfa said. Anyway, they all came, and the brothers would look down on them if they fled the battle.

They sneaked forward, and under the pale moonlight, they gradually came to a place close to the warehouse.

"Wait! I heard that their family will release the puppy at night. What if we meet a dog?" Zhu Dabao said tremblingly.

"Look at how cowardly you are. I saw those puppies yesterday. They are so thin that they can be knocked down with one kick." Someone laughed at him.

They continued to move forward, and when they reached the front door of the barn, a big dog suddenly jumped out from the shadows without a sound, and directly hit Zhu Dabao's leg.

At this time, other puppies also surrounded from several directions, and the dogs barked, screamed, and shouted endlessly.

Zhang Shu and others woke up suddenly, put on a big padded jacket, picked up a shoulder pole, a hoe and other things, and rushed to the backyard.The backyard was full of chickens and dogs, and a group of drunks were unresponsive. They jumped up and down after being bitten by the puppies. Although they wore more clothes in winter, the cotton wool was bitten out, which was really distressing!

"Zhang Shu! Quick! Let your dog go away!" They shouted in panic, while avoiding the attacks of the puppies.

Zhang Shu and the others didn't panic at this time, thinking that some strong men had come, but who would have thought that it was these few.

"What are you doing here? Can't sleep at night and go for a walk?" Yu Xiaoliu looked at them mockingly. These idiots made them have to get up in the cold, and it's amazing that they still have a good face towards them. It's weird.

"We went wrong! We went wrong!"

"Can you climb over the wall if you go wrong? Is this how you go home?"

When the puppies saw their master coming, they stopped barking, but they chased and bit more vigorously. They had a taste of expressing themselves, and looked very brave one by one.

Xiaohu also wanted to give the children a chance to show off, so he retreated to the dark place. Of course, this also had something to do with the fact that he had figured out the combat effectiveness of these people.

Zhang Shu looked at them for a while, and saw that their clothes and trousers were all torn, so he recruited the puppy to let them come back.

The puppies were still a little reluctant to fight, Zhang Shu barked two or three times before reluctantly coming over.On the other side, Lai Wang and He Yue also came to the door with hatchets. Li Mujin opened the door for them, and then went to the backyard to look. Wang Changfa and the others squatted in place dejectedly, Zhang Shu and the others stood there watching them .

Take the ropes and tie them up and take them back to the main room in the front yard. The others go back and put on their clothes, and then light the brazier in the main room before they come out.

Li Mujin and He Yue went to the kitchen to cook ginger soup. It's a cold day, don't catch a thief because it's bad.

Grandma Zhang wiped her eyes, and leaned closer to them to have a look, "It's you guys again, who like to bully my family Shu since childhood, and coming to our house at night, you are definitely not doing good!"

They drooped their heads and said nothing, complaining in their hearts that they were fascinated by ghosts, so they came to their house so as not to die.

"Tell me, what are you going to do at my house?" Zhang Shu asked.

"..."

"What? Don't talk? Xiaoliu, Ajiang and Ahai, take off their clothes and throw them out." Huang Tianhang is very familiar with this kind of people.

"I haven't thought about it yet..." Lai Erweng said in a low voice.

"I didn't think about it? Who are you fooling? You didn't think about anything, and the person came first?" Yu Xiaoliu sneered, these people used to want to persuade him to join them, if it wasn't for He Yue and Laiwang to help him, Maybe he really joined the team of these bums.

"We really didn't think about it. We just got drunk for a while, and wanted to make you a little bit more annoying..." Wang Changfa spoke. He was the one who came up with this idea, and now he himself regrets it too much.

Zhang Shu and the others looked at each other and believed what he said. They had seen the kidnappers just now, and there was nothing on them, not to mention tools for trickery, not even locks.

"Even if you don't think about it, you are already at my house. It's late at night. I'm afraid you want to steal something. It's more serious. I don't know if you want to kill someone. I just need to escort you to the village chief. Don't even think about living in this village."

Zhang Shu said lightly, but the threat was very strong.Things are expensive and people are cheap. If you are driven out of the village, you will not be able to settle down anywhere. You must know that the village chiefs in these ten miles and eight villages know each other, and thieves like them want to live in other villages. Settling down, that's something you don't even think about.

They panicked now, crying with snot and tears begging Zhang Shu to spare them.

Zhang Shu actually didn't want to make a fuss with the village chief. He knew very well that people should not be forced to a corner, otherwise barefoot people would not be afraid of people wearing shoes. It's not good to risk your life.Even if they always come to harass, that won't do.

After thinking about it, he called in a few people who could write, and each of them wrote a deed of sale, and brought it to Wang Changfa and the others.

"Originally, I wanted you all to get out of the village, but since your family has no crimes, I will just punish you. Sign this contract of prostitution and work for me for three years. I don't care about it. Otherwise, let's go to the village head, or the county government!"

These people hadn't fully woken up from the wine, and were blown by the cold wind, their minds were muddy, and they didn't think much, so they pressed their fingerprints, and those who wanted to think about it were also driven by the actions of others, and they were confused. Li pressed his handprint in a daze.

Li Mujin and the others brought out the boiled ginger soup, and Zhang Shu generously filled a bowl for the four of them, saying that if they had to work in the future, they would lose money if they died.

These people felt as if they had eaten a handful of Coptis chinensis, suffering unspeakably.

After Zhang Shu thanked them, he said that he would invite everyone to dinner tomorrow, and then let everyone go back to sleep.Those few also untied and let them go home.And also warned them not to think about escaping, otherwise they would be sold elsewhere.

These few people obediently agreed.

……

On the second day, all five ox carts in the village were used to transport dried vermicelli.An ox cart was loaded with about a thousand catties of goods. Although it was moving slowly, it was not in the way.

Zhang Shu saw that it was too slow. Five cows still had to walk six times, and that was twelve times to go back and forth.

When I was in a hurry, people from several surrounding villages also drove over with ox carts, and joined four or five ox carts at once, and now it only took three trips.

Zhang Shu and Huang Tianhang escorted the goods to the river. Before leaving, he said to Li Mujin, "Let the elder brother catch a pig and come out. Thank you everyone today, and invite everyone to have a pig-killing feast!"

Li Mujin nodded, turned around and went to call Li Yan.

Zhang Shu and the others pulled the goods to the river, and then hired river porters to carry them onto the boat bag by bag.

He walked around to search for a few bullock carts, and he would let them go back together later, and try to pull them back after two trips.

These dozen or so bullock carts formed a long convoy, which also made Zhang Shu famous in the county. This is about to become a rich man again!
