Chapter 359: Give the money to me
With Village Chief Li’s words, the villagers who were brought by Jia Dazhuang to testify immediately ran away .
Lu Changqing and Wang Daniu also hurriedly took away their sons . They were afraid to be one step away and end up the culprit to Jia Dazhuang’s son’s accident .
Before leaving, Bai Zhi looked at Dongzi in bed . She saw that he was secretly looking at her . There were tears in his eyes . She sighed at the bottom of her heart . What a poor boy for ending up in such a kind of family . Even if the outsider wanted to help, they can’t help . He can only carry everything by himself now .
Looking at the crowds leaving, the plan of Jia Dazhuang and his wife to save money was completely ruined, and they were very angry of it .
The same day, a carriage entered the village to pick up the melons . The previous coachman was sick, so he was temporarily assigned to pick up the goods . After he entered the village, he doesn’t know where exactly to go, but then he saw two women walking towards the river . The coachman hurriedly chase after the two and asked: “Big sister, do you know where Miss Bai Zhi lives?”
The two women were Old Lady Bai and Mrs . Liu, who were holding basins . Mrs . Liu looked at the coachman and saw the carriage . This carriage was familiar to her . Two days ago, it passed by the village and now it’s here again, but the coachman doesn’t seem to be the same person .
“Your not the same coachman before, right?” Mrs . Liu asked .
The young man smiled and said “I came here just today . Big Brother Zhao is sick . I am helping him to do his job . When he gets better, he’ll go back to work . ”
Mrs . Liu answered with “oh” and then immediately stood up . She smiled and said: “I am Bai Zhi’s first aunt . ”
The young man smiled and replied: “It turned out to be Miss Bai Zhi’s relative . Big sister, could you tell me how to get to her house?”
Mrs . Liu nodded her head: “I’ll tell you the way, how many pounds of melon will you get today?”
The youth man busily replied: “100 pounds, we always buy 100 pounds . ”
On the side, Old Lady Bai butted in with a smile: “100 pounds? You can make a lot of food out of it . You can earn a lot of money if you open a restaurant . My granddaughter works so hard to plant melons, but she could only earn a few pieces of copper coins . ”
The young man immediately waved his hand: “You shouldn’t be saying this . To be honest, I never seen someone earn so much by selling melons . For 100 pounds of melons, our Boss Chen is paying 5 silver coins . Even in the capital, they never bought melons at the same price . ”
Old Lady Bai’s mouth wide opened . Did she hear it right? 5 silver coins?
5 silver coins for 100 pounds of melons?
In other words, every time this carriage comes, they give 5 silver coins to Bai Zhi . After coming a few times, how much money now did they paid to her?
So nowadays, Bai Zhi was just sitting at home and collecting 5 silver coins?
Mrs . Liu was very angry . They can’t earn 5 silver coins for a year, but this Bai Zhi who was sitting at home can earn so much? Every two days she can earn 5 silver coins… … How much will that be after a year?
When Old Lady Bai saw the young man seemed to be stupid, she had an idea . She said: “Young man, I am Bai Zhi’s grandmother . She told me earlier that if someone came to buy melons, she will give me the money to me . The autumn season will come to end soon, she told me to buy new clothes . You give me the money first, and when you meet Bai Zhi, you can tell her you saw me . ”
The young man immediately shook his head: “This can’t be done . We have rules when buying supplies . We always hand over the money when the goods are in front of us . How can I give you the money when I haven’t seen the goods?” Besides, you are not Bai Zhi . The young man muttered to himself .
