Chen Xu was at the gate of Puyang City, and the other people in the village didn't know about the conflict with Zhang Qi.

At this time, after hearing what Chen Xu said, everyone understood why Zhang Qi repeatedly couldn't get along with Chenjiacun.

But the conflict started because of saving people, so the simple villagers not only did not blame Chen Xu, but persuaded him to get up.

Chen Xu didn't get up, just raised his head and said, "Xu has a request, and he also asks the village elders to agree." ”

"Get up quickly, no one in the clan blames you, just say what you have to do."

Lao Likui stepped forward and touched Chen Xu's head, his face was full of tenderness: "You are the pride of the clan, and we all look forward to your ability to get ahead in the future." ”

Chen Xu was moved in his heart, but he still didn't get up: "The destruction of the field tonight, please don't spread the word about the destruction of the field in the clan." ”

"Now that the clan has suffered heavy losses, Xu hopes to sell the tiger to Zhang Qi's family first, and then deal with them after getting a million dollars."

Old Likui was silent and thought for a while.

Originally, Zhang Qi burned the fields in the clan, no matter how high the price was, he should not sell the tiger to the Zhang family.

However, the life of the clan is in dire straits, and several fields have been more or less destroyed, if you can get one million money at this time, it will undoubtedly be a huge amount of money for Chenjia Village.

Li Kui sighed and said dejectedly: "That's it, even if you let outsiders laugh at my Chenjia Village, you can't let the clansmen suffer, and sell the tiger to the Zhang family tomorrow." ”

When everyone heard this, although they were angry in their hearts, they could distinguish the importance of the matter, so that no one raised any objections.

At this time, a child in the village suddenly stepped forward and said loudly: "I have no objection to Da Lang's words, but Zhang Qi has repeatedly bullied my Chenjia Village, what about this matter?" ”

"Exactly, Zhang Qi deceived people too much, if I don't show the majesty of my Chenjia Village this time, in the future, I don't know how many people will think that my Chenjia Village can be bullied."

Another member of the clan spoke up, and the whole village suddenly became noisy. Everyone made generous statements, all of them red-faced and indignant.

Seeing this, Chen Xu got up and picked up a wooden stick the thickness of a baby's arm, walked in front of everyone, and then held the wooden stick with both hands, and with a fierce force, the wooden stick was suddenly broken into two.

Everyone heard the 'click' sound, and they all looked at Chen Xu, and for a while, the whole village was silent.

Throwing the wooden stick that was broken in two on the ground, Chen Xu said in a deep voice: "The elders of the clan, I regard them as parents; The children of the clan are regarded as brothers. Zhang Qi insulted my parents and bullied my brother, how could I give up? ”

"The elders of the clan can rest assured, after exchanging the tiger for money, if Xu doesn't give you an explanation, there will be such a stick."

When he finished speaking, he pointed to the wooden stick that was lying on the ground and was broken in two.

……

At the door of Zhang's house in Puyang, today is particularly lively. Although there are many people who are afraid of the Zhang family's power, they still can't stop everyone's curiosity.

One million dollars to buy a tiger, people want to see what the Zhang family looks like when they become the wronged boss.

In this era, the value of a cow is only between 4,000 and 8,000 yuan, and an ordinary war horse can buy one for more than 20,000 yuan in the north, even in the south, where there is an extreme shortage of horses, the most expensive will not exceed 100,000 yuan.

Such a war horse is worth more than even a good car in later generations, and even those extremely rare good horses are only worth more than 200,000 yuan.

It can be seen that in this era when tigers are not rare, spending 1 million yuan to buy a tiger is a big loss.

Zhang Qi's family sent more than 50 house slaves to drive away the onlookers, but there were some high-ranking officials and nobles among the onlookers, most of them had some grievances with the Zhang family, so they called friends to come and see the Zhang family's jokes.

Suddenly, I heard the sound of shouting, and I saw Chen Xu with more than 200 people pushing the tiger over with a cart.

Seeing Chen Xu and others coming, everyone hurriedly made way of a passage, but there were too many people, and the cart still couldn't be pushed forward, and everyone pushed each other for a while.

Chen Xu saw that he had been delayed for a long time, and the passage he gave up was still not enough for a large car to pass, so he walked in front of the tiger at the moment, carried it on his shoulder, and walked towards Zhang's mansion.

"This big insect is no less than 500 catties (equivalent to about 250 catties now), and the Chen family has carried it without changing his face, and he is really strong."

"I have heard that Da Lang is brave, but I don't want the divine power to be so amazing."

Everyone saw Chen Xu carrying the big worm and leaving, and the voices of admiration were endless.

Chen Xu walked to the door of Zhang's house and shouted: "The tiger has been brought, have you made up the 1 million money in your Zhang family?" ”

The noisy and noisy sound was covered by this heart-warming cheer for a while.

The more than fifty house slaves in Zhang's mansion were a little frightened when they heard Chen Xu's words, and they didn't dare to respond.

The onlookers were afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and they immediately coaxed: "The Zhang family can't afford it, naturally some people can afford it, you must not delay others to sell tigers." ”

As early as when Chen Xu and the others first arrived at Zhang's mansion, there were slaves from the Zhang family who went to report.

I saw the door of Zhang's mansion wide open, and a middle-aged man with a gloomy face walked out, followed by Zhang Qihe and the woman who appeared yesterday.

Although Zhang Qi's family is a distant relative of Zhang Gong and is domineering in Puyang, their family is not prosperous.

The middle-aged man led by Zhang Qi's father, the woman is Zhang Qi's mother, and Zhang's father and several concubines stayed at home and did not come out to join in the fun.

Father Zhang looked at Chen Xu, who was showing off his might, although he was furious, but he had a smile on his face.

He said to Chen Xu kindly: "Just a million dollars, why bother? Da Lang is so brave, and I have always respected warriors, if I use these things outside my body, I can make friends with the Chen family, what is the pity? ”

After these words, if you don't understand Zhang's father's personality, you will feel that the Zhang family is not blackmailed, but spent a million dollars to buy a tiger in order to make friends with a strong man.

But in Puyang County, who doesn't know the name of Zhang's father who is insidious and vicious, greedy for money and stingy? So when I heard Zhang's father's words, I immediately booed.

Zhang's father didn't care, still smiling all over his face.

When Chen Xu saw such a situation, he sighed in his heart.

Although it was the first time to meet Zhang's father, in a short period of time, it could be seen that this person was extremely not simple.

It seems that the Zhang family can live in Puyang, not just relying on Zhang Gong's momentum.

However, the primary purpose of this trip is to get 1 million money first, which is very important for Chenjiacun.

Although Chen Xu knew that Zhang's father wanted to kill him in his heart, he still didn't want to lose Zhang's father's face at this time.

"Thanks to Your Excellency's love, I dare not be ashamed. However, I am a reckless man, how dare I climb the Zhang family in Puyang? The purpose of Asahi is to sell the Tiger, and if you are willing to buy it, Asahi is grateful. ”

Chen Xu's words made Zhang's father very happy in his heart, although he hated to kill Chen Xu, but he still pretended to be a broken handover, what is the matter? Isn't it to save face for the Zhang family?

Seeing that it was a foregone conclusion to buy a tiger with a million dollars, although he said that he could take revenge on Chenjiacun in the future, he would definitely become a laughing stock in the eyes of everyone today.

At this time, Chen Xu did not fall into the ground, but spoke respectfully, which somewhat made Zhang's father feel that he had saved some face, and he didn't say much at the moment, and directly let people pull out ten cars of money.

"You count it, a total of 10,416 gold and 64 gold, I hope you can get it back."

After Zhang's father finished speaking, he asked people to pour all the money in the car on the ground, and then sent someone to take the tiger from Chen Xu's hand.

Looking at the mountains of belongings on the ground, not only Chen Xu and them were stupid, but even many onlookers were dumbfounded.

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, twenty taels in the Han Dynasty were one gold, and twenty-four of one tael was one baht, so one gold was equal to 24 baht× 20 taels, which was 480 baht, and a copper coin was five baht, that is, one gold should be 96 five-baht coins.

At that time, a gold refers to 20 taels of brass, from the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty, 1 catty 16 taels, 1 tael 14g, that is to say, 1 catty is 224g, and the weight of 10,000 gold is equivalent to 5,600 catties now.

But when Chen Xu came, he only brought a big car, and it was impossible to pull back the mountain of belongings.

Only then did Chen Xu remember why the spoils obtained were calculated in terms of cars when depicting a war in the romance.

There were only a few people in the audience who were wealthy, looking at the mountains of belongings, all of them were red-faced and red-eared, and their breathing was heavier.

Chen Xu was afraid that everyone would rob him, so he immediately asked the children of the clan to surround the mountains of money and send someone to count the belongings. Some of the commotion crowd looked at the children of the Chen family, so they didn't start to rob.

Half an hour later, everyone finished counting the money, a full 1 million yuan, and the Zhang family did not cheat.

Zhang's father never left, and after seeing Chen Xu and the others counting the money, he said jokingly: "With so much money, you can't pull back a big car, do you want me to help?" ”

"Respect the good intentions, I will understand, but since the transaction is completed, the rest of the matter will naturally not be bothered."

Chen Xu rejected Zhang's father's proposal, and then said to the onlookers: "My Chenjia Village took the risk of going into the mountains to hunt tigers because there was no food in the village. ”

The onlookers, there are not a few big families with a lot of food at home, and they are very happy when they hear this, and they immediately sell their own food to Chen Xu.

For a while, the onlookers who had just been shocked by the mountain of money became noisy again.

"Everyone, be quiet for the time being, we only need the cheapest corn in Chenjia Village, if any family is willing to sell the grain to us at the market price and help transport it to Chenjia Village, we will buy it from his family."

"Da Lang has to be counted when he speaks, our Li family sells 100 stones."

"Our Wang family sells 80 stones."

"Our Geng family sells 220 stones."

……

At this time, the war had not yet started, and the autumn harvest was approaching, and many families with old grain wanted to sell their grain. Therefore, although the price of grain is more expensive than usual, it can be bought for 250 yuan for one stone of corn.

The stone here does not refer to the weight, but to the unit of capacity.

One stone of corn refers to one hundred, and it weighs about 17 to 20 kilograms.

Refers to the weight unit of the stone, one stone is equal to four jun, one jun is 30 catties, which is equivalent to about 53 catties now, so people who can generally open a stone hard bow are all people with amazing arm strength.

In fact, before leaving, Chen Xu would definitely pile up even if he got 1 million yuan, and he discussed with the elders of the clan early and persuaded them to buy more food and put it at home.

Troubled times are coming, and no one knows better than Chen Xu how important food is at that time.

Seeing that everyone was willing to sell grain, Chen Xu replied: "This is very good, if I have enough money, I can bring as much corn as I want." ”

Everyone was overjoyed and went home to collect food.

Only Zhang's father had a gloomy face, and then called a confidant and whispered something, and then the man disappeared.
