Chapter 43 The 4 Uncles Defraud People
"What is this?" Gao Orion's wife asked.
"It's for healing, I bought it from the establishment drugstore." After Li Ji finished speaking, he felt his stomach growling. At first he thought it was because he was hungry, but then he felt his intestines moving together, and soon the pain became unbearable.
"Hey, you guys go first, I have a stomachache to make it easier." Li Ji quickly ran into the undergrowth.
Er Gouzi was afraid that he would be in danger again, so he hurriedly followed him.Li Ji turned his head and knocked on the crowd without moving. A little shy, he walked a little further away, squatted down, and immediately felt his stomach feel better.
Picking a few big leaves to wipe his butt, Li Ji stood up and suddenly heard a whining sound, it was not loud, and it sounded a bit pitiful.
Li Ji followed the sound and walked two steps, pushed aside the tall weeds and looked over, it was a wounded wolf licking the wound, when he heard the sound, he straightened up and stared at them.
The fiercest beasts are when they are injured.Because at this time, as long as they are weaker, they will be divided and eaten by other wild beasts immediately.
Li Ji saw that this wolf looked familiar, no matter how it looked, it looked like the wolf that saved him that day.
There were two arrows beside the wolf. It seemed that the wolf escaped here after being hit by the arrows, and pulled out the arrows with his mouth.
If it was by the side, even if Li Ji had the courage to kill the beast that hurt someone, he would turn around and run away immediately, but the wolf in front of him had saved him, and with the two dogs by his side, Li Ji could muster up the courage.
"This one is called a wolf. You saved me last time, Er Gouzi, do you know how to let him know that I won't harm it? I want to save it."
The wolf was still looking at the two of them defensively.
Er Gouzi walked over directly: "I've seen it before."
Er Gouzi walked in, and the wolf took two steps back, its arched body gradually collapsed, and it was hard to tell whether it was fear or what.Er Gouzi walked quickly, and in a blink of an eye, he was in front of the wolf. The wolf simply lay down on the ground, humming aggrievedly.
"When?" Li Ji didn't expect Er Gouzi to see him too.
"It's been a long time, it was when he was very young, I remember his pattern." Er Gouzi has a good memory, and he said that he must have seen it.
Er Gouzi put one hand on the wolf's head, and the wolf just lay there motionless.Li Ji took out a bottle of healing medicine left in his cuff and sprinkled it on the wound for the wolf.
Someone in the village had already called them, and Li Ji responded, seeing that the wound was full of medicine, he put away the small medicine bottle, and took Er Gouzi back.
"I don't know what I ate wrong, but it hurts badly." Li Ji said weakly.
"Maybe it's the cold wind. It's been cold for the past two days. You wear so little and go up the mountain to let the wind blow your stomach. Go back and drink some hot water."
Li Ji nodded, and a group of people went down the mountain in a mighty manner.
The man was found, but this matter can be talked about by the village for a while. No one in the village has ever been to the deep mountains. Although they didn't see any large beasts this time, they did see roe deer and rabbits.
It's no wonder Gao Orion ventured in, so many prey could be caught and eaten for many days.It's just that Gao Orion was injured not long ago, and he should be fine on the mountain before, so why did he go for two days and two nights?When injured, there was no prey around.
Even if you don't use bows and arrows well, you can catch nothing if you go up the mountain and dig traps for two days.
After returning home, Xue Langzhong showed Gao Liehu that the wound was deep. Although it was not a serious injury, if it was swollen (inflamed and pus), it would be fatal.But the medicine given by Li Ji was timely, and the medicine was very effective.
In the future, I will use the medicine given by Xue Langzhong and change the medicine in time, and it will be better in a few days.
After the harvest, the weather became colder and colder. The dog was about to catch fire. It was a yellow dog. Two or three months was the time of joy. The family bitch gave birth to seven puppies, and when one died, she gave away five puppies. One was originally kept at home to eat dog meat. I heard that Li Ji was willing to buy it for ten copper coins, so he sent the dog over without further ado.
Although the dog is not big, Li Ji is quite scary, especially after seeing a wolf.Although Li Ji saved the wolf that day, it doesn't mean that he is not afraid.
The new kid was already afraid of unfamiliar environments, and would bark at night. Li Ji didn't dare to look at him, but when he heard how loud he barked, he asked Er Gouzi to comfort him.
On weekdays, the dogs are also fed by Er Gouzi. After a long time, the two brothers are inseparable, and Li Ji is not far away watching these two guys show their affection.
During the day, when the two went up the mountain to cut grass and chop firewood, they let the dog watch over the house, and only opened the yard door when they came back at night. If it was bored, it could go out for a walk by itself.The two chickens that were killed by the yellow skin were fed to the dog, and they were hungry because of this. They only gave rice and vegetables and refused to eat.
There is no coal at home, and winter is about to start again, so I need to cut more branches and dry grass before the snow falls.In this way, the winter can be more comfortable.
The rabbits have laid three more litters. Now there are more than 30 big rabbits in the house. It is enough to kill one or two a day for the two dogs to eat. If there are more rabbits, the chickens will eat less. More chickens lay more eggs. Li Ji I went to the village to sell eggs once, and now the Tianliang chickens are not laying many eggs, so Li Ji sells eggs very quickly.A lot of copper plates have also been saved.
There is a pile of leather at home, and I can't go out after it snows, so I have to send it to the city to sell before it snows.
There are still more rabbit skins, because the family eats a lot of rabbit meat, and the rest are two pieces of deer skin and roe deer skin.
These things are worth a few taels of silver according to the price given by Gao Orion before. These things are exchanged for all the silver, and it is just right to buy some goods for the winter.
After taking care of the house two days in advance, putting the dog in the yard to watch the house, locking the gate of the livestock pen, Er Gouzi and Li Ji went to the city for the third time.
Because they lived outside the village, no one knew they were out when they left.
When I arrived in the city, I was not in a hurry to eat, so I went to the fur shop first. Although the housekeeper who bought it for the county magistrate said he wanted furs, they definitely couldn’t get all the leathers. Besides, although doing business with officials is grand, it’s nice to say it. .But Li Ji always believed in one sentence, there is no pie in the sky.
There are gains and losses, and you can't blindly want to take advantage of it.
The clerk in the leather goods store saw that Li Ji and Er Gouzi looked familiar, and after a while, he remembered that he had been here a few months ago.
As soon as he entered the room, without waiting for greetings, Li Ji said, "Tell your shopkeepers to come out."
The shopkeeper called out to the shopkeeper, and he was still the shopkeeper. He opened the curtain and looked at the two of them in a daze. Last time they left here, they prepared tea and snacks and waited for the God of Wealth to come back. As a result, they didn't come back after that. When he came back, the shopkeeper thought that the shopkeeper of the pawn shop had taken the wrong medicine, and he actually bought the fox fur for 20 taels of silver.
"Yo, the two masters haven't come for a while." The shopkeeper felt a little complicated, and didn't know what to say.
These days are enough for him to regret, and he sent the two Gods of Wealth away with only two taels of silver. This is a long-term gift, so he gave it to others with his own hands. How can he not regret it?
This time the two came over again, the shopkeeper was not sure what Li Ji was thinking, so he was not too enthusiastic, nor did he dare to be indifferent.
Li Ji put the burden on the table and sat down, Er Gouzi sat next to Li Ji.
"Serve tea! Hurry up and bring the ones you choose." The shopkeeper told the waiter a few words, and then he smiled and said to Li Ji, "You two are here to take care of the business of the small shop? Don't hide it Looking at you two, the last time you went ahead, I regretted it. I went out and searched for a long time but didn't see anyone. I regretted that I didn't close my eyes for a few days. The leather is indeed a good material, 18 taels of silver is missing. "
Is there anyone in business who can't speak nicely?Li Jiren is not stupid, he turned his head and said with a smile: "Do you know who we sold that leather to?"
The shopkeeper's heart was that of a pawnbroker, but he still pretended not to know and shook his head.
Li Ji said with pride on his face: "You didn't see us that day because we ran into a nobleman just after we left the door. To tell you the truth, he is the housekeeper who bought from our county grandpa's mansion, and he was worried that he didn't have a good skin. , Guess how much that piece of leather sold for?"
The shopkeeper swallowed: "How much?"
Li Ji stretched out two fingers: "22 taels of silver, the master will give an extra tael of silver as the fixed silver, so that I can send it over there if I have skins in the future. I didn't dare to ask for it. It's a great thing. It's hot in my hand."
Li Ji opened the package on the table: "I'm an idiot, and I don't like to take advantage of good things, so I'll try it with you first. If the price you give is reasonable, I'll sell it. If it's not reasonable, I'll go find the old man." , although it's a bit troublesome, there's no reason why you can't get along with Yinzi."
What Li Ji said was so clever, how dare the shopkeeper's offer be lower than that of the county magistrate?That is not giving face to the magistrate.In this small county town, the county magistrate is heaven, and if he offends heaven, life will not be easy.
The shopkeeper looked at Li Ji's face and knew that Li Ji was telling the truth. No one had the guts to pretend to be the magistrate without reality.
If this matter is suppressed by the county magistrate's house, the shopkeeper really can't lower the price too low.
The shopkeeper's eyes fell on the pile of leather, and his eyes moved. These leathers are valuable. If you buy them and send them to the top, the higher price is not bad.
The shopkeeper was thinking about it, but Li Ji didn't give him time to do it. Seeing that he didn't answer immediately, Li Ji began to pack up his burden and said, "Since the shopkeeper doesn't have that kind of heart, we won't delay the shopkeeper's time. Please give me your time." Show me the way, how to get to the county magistrate's mansion, or we can go out and hire a sedan chair."
Seeing people want to leave, how can the shopkeeper watch?He hurriedly reached out to stop him, smiled politely and said: "Look at what you said, you are all serious and good leather, there is no reason why the price is unreasonable, this leather is good, we don't have to worry about keeping it Sell it, you set a price, as long as the market price is not too high, I will accept all of them. The price I gave was low last time, because I was afraid that the white fox fur would be too precious, and my small shop would not be able to sell it. It's different now, isn't it?"
