"Respected official, you must not cooperate with him, we can also help you, you give us fifty taels is enough, tomorrow I can help you prepare a hundred wooden slips, and I can also help you send these things when the time comes."

Yuan Xi looked at the woman gratefully, this is the real person, he thanked Rapp and said, "That's okay, just follow what you say." When the time comes, I'll give you a hundred taels. ”

"That's embarrassing, fifty taels is actually a lot." Rapp showed a shy smile, and then frowned, "Big official, didn't I say, that Laps, if you cheat, it's not easy to deal with, do you have a way to deal with him?" ”

Yuan Xi smiled slightly, "You can rest assured about this, as long as the other party is not too many people, it shouldn't be a problem for me to deal with them." ”

"Hey, okay. I'll go back and talk to the master," Rapp turned to say a few words to the eldest lady, turned around and hurried away.

Yuan Xi looked at the eldest lady Chong's eyes full of hope, patted her head, she was really dizzy, she forgot about the eldest mother, and it seemed that she could only wait for Rapp to come back.

gave the eldest lady a general comparison, this time the eldest mother just nodded again and again, and I don't know if I understood it. Yuan Xi is not worried, anyway, Rapp will come back, and he will talk about it when the time comes.

"Aunt Liu, did you hear what we said outside?" Entering the house, Yuan Xi asked Aunt Liu.

"Nope. What did you say? Liu Gu shook her head and looked at him with bright eyes.

Yuan Xi told the matter as it was, and said: "That's the thing, now it's only fifty taels, they did ask for a few thousand taels before, this group of people really dares to ask for it, and they are not afraid of breaking the family." ”

"So cheap?" The Zhen family is also a family of businessmen, so they naturally know how big the gap is, no matter how ruthless they are, they rarely want it like this, let alone know that the other party is the government.

"Xianyi, be careful," Liu Gu said worriedly: "These people are so black-hearted, if we reject them now, if they are ruthless and do something hurtful, we can't do anything in this deserted village." ”

"I know that." Yuan Xi looked at the big knife leaning against the corner of the wall, and sneered in his heart, just this group of people, one or twenty, he has the confidence to deal with it, but it is much easier to deal with than those snow wolves.

"Aunt Liu, you have a good rest and recuperate, and this matter will be dealt with."

"Well," Aunt Liu also knew that she didn't have any way to deal with this matter, so she could only leave it all to Yuan Xi to deal with at the moment.

After eating at noon that day, not long after, Laps, who Yuan Xi had promised to give four thousand taels, took one or twenty men and a hundred wooden slips to the door of Aunt Alia's house one after another, and the three snow dogs barked non-stop.

Yuan Xi took the big knife and put it behind the door, cleaned it up, and said to Aunt Liu: "It should be that Laps is here, you stay here, I'll go out and have a look." ”

"Be careful." Liu Gu turned over and over these words.

Yuan Xi opened the door and walked out, looking at the one or twenty people not far outside, as well as the wooden slip on the ground, he had a rough idea in his heart.

"Hey, brother," Lapse stepped forward and said with a smile, "You see that I have made everything, more than a hundred, and there are enough people, how about it, I didn't lie to you." ”

Yuan Xi looked at this wooden slide, the shape was a little strange, like a rocker for skiing, but he couldn't say that, his sides and middle were bulging, and the size looked like it was not a problem to be able to carry more than a dozen people, but in the end, it was necessary to see the actual effect.

"Haven't you seen this rarity?" Lapse smiled and said, "I'll let you put on a show, and I'm sure you'll be satisfied." ”

Yuan Xi interrupted him, "Forget it, that's it, I'm satisfied with what you do, but I hope there won't be any accidents on the road." By the way, is the food ready? ”

Laps's face suddenly became bitter, "Good brother, on this snowy day, every household has difficulty in getting food, it's not that I don't give it to you, it's really too difficult to get this food." You, if you really need it, I can get you enough food, and the money will be a little less. ”

Yuan Xi was angry and funny, and asked, "We have three dogs, two people, how much is it in total?" ”

Lapse was amazed: "There are so many people on your side, don't they need food?" ”

Yuan Xi shook his head, the speed of the wooden slide is faster, we can get there in a day, and we don't need so much for the time being. ”

With disappointment on his face, Lapse said: "In this case, then I will charge you a hundred taels, good brother, don't say that I have collected too much, this grain is indeed as expensive as gold in the winter, if you don't want it, I won't sell it, but don't sell it when I sell it, and I will be said to be black-hearted." ”

"There's too much money." Yuan Xi said lightly: "I now think that not only is the wood slippery expensive, but even the food is expensive to death, you can do it yourself, if it really doesn't work, I won't go for the time being, and then think of other ways." Four thousand one hundred taels, just to hurry, hehe, after I go back, I don't know what to say, and I can't take out so much money alone. ”

Laps's face was instantly very exciting, and he said, "Can't take it out?" What can't be taken out? ”

"Silver." Yuan Xi said with a smile: "I think four thousand is too much, we have a thousand people, that is, everyone has to take out four taels of silver, I don't think there is much to be willing to take out, and when the time comes, if everyone chooses to walk in order to save the four taels of silver, then there is no need for so many wooden slips." Well, so be it, you take a hundred wooden slips and get back fifty, and I'll just need fifty. ”

"You're kidding me?" Rapps was so angry that he yelled.

Yuan Xi frowned, "Huh? You talk to me? ”

Laps's heart trembled, the other party was from the government, his body trembled twice, gritted his teeth, and said: "I have to go back and ask, after all, I have already told everyone about this matter, and if I say that I will retreat, if people do not agree, then I have no choice." ”

Yuan Xi said with a smile: "If you don't agree, there will naturally be a solution to disagree." Let's go check it out first. With so much money, you don't think about it, right? ”

Lapse ignored him, turned around and left.

Yuan Xi snorted coldly, looked back at Aunt Alia standing at the door, and gave her a reassuring look.

Alia smiled, and when Yuan Xi turned her head, she suddenly had a worried look on her face again, obviously afraid that they would fight.

After Yuan Xi weighed the pros and cons in his heart, he already had a plan to solve the matter, but it depended on how they did it.

Soon Lapse came back, looking a little unpleasant.
