Seeing the two people who were so excited that they received the huge sum of money, Lao Bu Sheng was very satisfied. Once again, he realized the importance of money. Money can make ghosts go round, money can clear the way, and get twice the result with half the effort. The ancients never deceived me.
No wonder everyone loves money. This feeling of being looked up to is, well, good.
The old man waved his hand, pretending to be generous and said: "Don't be excited, there is no need to change. If I don't have any change, I will just give it to you two to drink."
The old man still felt a faint pain in his heart. This was just one tael of silver. In Wuhu Village, you could buy two chickens, which were fed with grain. He was still reluctant to part with them. But when he thought of Wang Budie, the old man couldn't bear it. Just think about it if you don't want to die. You still have to spend the money you should spend. Everything is for the sake of your children and you can't save it.
It took the white cat and the black dog a while to come back to their senses. They looked at each other, and then looked at the old man again. Both of them looked bad. They felt that their IQ was being rubbed by the old man on the ground, and sparks appeared. With some anger, the white cat spoke: "Old man, you are teasing us. One tael of silver, one tael of silver is not enough to go to Xiao Taohong's place for a cup of tea."
Xiao Taohong doesn't know Lao Immortal, but he still knows that a cup of tea costs one tael of silver. For example, the tea leaves offered as tribute are still very expensive. I think I was lucky enough to drink them a few times back then, but the taste was just like that, and I didn't taste anything. It has a special taste. I would like to suggest that you don't drink such expensive tea. After all, you have to do what you can. You are just ordinary servants. Why bother pretending to be fat and pretending to be rich? It's good to drink boiled water. Save money, stay healthy, and nourish your kidneys.
However, the old man still did not put forward his own opinion. After all, everyone has his own way of living. There are still many people who want to live the life of the upper class even though they only have the income of the bottom class. It is also common for people to live a life of debauchery by relying on loans. A lot.
"What do you mean," Lao Immortal answered carefully as he didn't understand what the two of them meant.
Black Dog said hurriedly: "Old man, give me some more, give me some more, one tael is too little. It's still very hard for my brothers to run errands for you."
The old man wanted to scold his mother, but this was too little. I thought back when I was in the army, my monthly salary was only one tael, but now, the small running fee is more than one tael. Prices have risen too fast. This is not giving people a way to survive.
The old immortal reluctantly took off the shoe on his other foot and took out a one-tael ticket from it. The black dog hurriedly snatched it, looked at it and cursed again: "Uh, it's one tael again, old man Don’t you have any banknotes with a face value of more than one tael?”
The old man shook his head "No".
"I don't believe it." Black Dog didn't hesitate, and he didn't mind the strange smell of the old immortal's feet that he hadn't washed for several days. He picked up the old immortal's shoes and turned them over. He wanted to put his head in and take a closer look. If it wasn't Because the strength of his hands was a little weak, Black Dog wanted to tear the soles apart and take a look.
The black dog was very disappointed. He didn't find a single coin. He looked at the white cat and shook his head.
The white cat originally thought that there would be a few banknotes in the soles of the old immortal's shoes, so the black dog went to check and did not stop him. He never thought that there were only one or two in each shoe, well, it was very equal.
Lao Immortal lifted up his pants, and was very happy in his heart. Lao Immortal still knew the principle of the cunning rabbit's three burrows. Money can't be hidden in one place, not two places, at least three. No, in the pants. The one tael of silver was saved.
Ginger is old and spicy, this saying makes a lot of sense.
The black dog threw away the old shoe in disgust and returned to the white cat.
The old man put on his shoes, huh, he wants to fight with me, but you are still a little bit mature. He looked at the two of them with a smile and asked: "You two brothers, you have searched, I really have no money, you See if you can go and report it."
"Report, that's impossible. We won't report it for you without twenty taels. This is a rule we have formed after being a servant for five years." White Cat's categorical answer is very principled. Everyone has their own insistence and cannot be changed.
Twenty taels, that's a huge amount of money. Even if I take out the one tael from my crotch, I'm still short of more than ten taels. I thought to myself, there is no hope for these two people to go in and report today. Break in. , I am still a little scared, it seems I just want to find a place to live first and think of other ways.
"Well, I won't go, you give me back the money."
If the matter is not completed, the remuneration paid will naturally have to be recovered. This is a very reasonable thing. What the old man said is also reasonable.
"Well, what's the silver? What's the silver?" The white cat looked stupid, then looked at the black dog and asked: "Xiao Hei, have you seen the silver?"
"No, there is no money, where can there be money?" The black dog shook his head like a rattle.
The old man completely underestimated the shamelessness of the two of them. After more than ten years of not leaving the mountain, people's moral values and values have become so distorted.
I still want to explain that I just took it out of my shoe and put it in your arms, and the smell has not dissipated yet.
But before the old man could say anything, the white cat came down and chased the people away, "Old man, get out of here, you are not worth money. I have worked hard in Min Guogong's mansion for five years. Who doesn't say that we are serious about our work?" You work hard and entrust us with such an important job as gatekeepers. They feel relieved, sleep well, and have fewer nightmares. How can we accept your money? Don't slander our innocence. It's insulting. We just slapped the Duke of Min in the face, and Ni Bodhisattva is still very angry. Please be careful when you report to the official."
Every word of the white cat pierced the heart of the old immortal. After living for such a long time, it was the first time that he was so depressed. Even in Wuhu Village, he faced the lowest official of the imperial court like Satsuma. When collecting taxes, Lao Immortal ignored them. He never expected to meet two classless watchdogs. After being bullied so much, Lao Immortal became a little angry.
"You are planning to deny it." After so many years of fighting on the battlefield, his temper was not very good. The old immortal became angry and his attitude changed.
"Hahaha" Black Dog looked up to the sky and laughed, "Old man, what can you do to us if we don't admit it? Why don't you still beat us?"
"Pop" the sound of a broken nose, followed by the sound of the black dog covering its nose and screaming.
The old immortal is not a good-tempered person, nor is he a person who can endure things. If he could endure it, he would not waste his wealth and raise a team to fight against an invader who is a hundred times stronger than himself. Resist. Nor would he always be a vanguard on the battlefield even though he was serving as a soldier.
If it weren't for Wang Immortal, Lao Immortal wouldn't have swallowed his anger for so long, and even took out his coffin board to bribe the two gatekeepers. I never thought that the money I spent would not even stir up a splash. It was like spending two taels of silver chatting with two male friends for a while, and there was no tea.
If you can't bear it anymore, you don't need to bear it anymore, just go straight up. No, the black dog has been injured. This is why those who have made military exploits are now holding some positions in the court or the army, while Lao Bu Die has no official position. One of the reasons for his job is that Lao BuSi knows very well that he has a bad temper and is not suitable for officialdom. He is a scheming, amiable person on the surface, but stabs himself in the back. Lao BuSi is afraid that it will be difficult for him to survive.
The white cat couldn't believe it. Ever since he entered the Duke of Min's mansion and became a glorious gatekeeper, he had been insulated from being bullied. Everyone he walked on the road would greet him with a smile, and even the most polite person would call him "Bai Ye". Being beaten does not exist. How many people have the heart of a leopard and dare to attack the people of the Duke of Min's mansion? It depends on the owner to beat a dog.
Could he be dreaming? The black dog's scream brought the white cat back to reality. This was not a dream, because the white cat saw the scarlet blood flowing from the black dog's nose.
He pointed at Lao Immortal in disbelief, with a trembling tone in his voice: "You, you still dare to hit someone."
"Didn't you see it?" Old Immortal looked at the white cat and raised his eyebrows.
"Okay, if you dare to beat the people in the Duke's Mansion, the white cat picked up the dog beating stick next to him and rushed towards the old immortal."
For the sake of safety, there are still some swordsmen, swords and halberds in the ear room next to the door. The brave ones will starve to death and the timid ones will starve to death. Who knows if someone will take advantage of the drunkenness to steal from the Duke of Min's mansion, but the white cat is not used to those. Destructive weapons are too cruel, but he still loves sticks - dog beating sticks. This kind of long and thick weapon, well, looks like him, simple and honest, practical and durable.
The old immortal looked at the white cat with disdain, shifted his body to avoid the white cat's attack, then raised his right hand and punched the white cat on the back. The white cat staggered for a while, almost falling, and there was a sound coming from the back. A twinge of pain.
"It turns out he's still a trainer," said the white cat, then kicked the black dog, which was still lying on the ground and howling, and ordered: "Don't pretend to be dead, the idea is too hard, hurry up, let's do it together."
"Oh" the black dog also stood up. In fact, the old man still had no strength. The black dog only suffered a skin injury, and the bridge of his nose was not broken. After all, this was also a person from the Duke's mansion. The beating was too heavy. People will also feel dull. The old immortality is also very strange. Isn't it just that there is a little blood left? The black dog has to lie on the ground and pretend to be extremely miserable. Is it because he wants to cheat and extort money? I heard that it is a very popular way to get rid of poverty and become rich. The old man couldn't help but touch his crotch.
The black dog trotted back to the ear room, took out a seven-foot-long broadsword, and ran out babbling. He didn't expect that he was too excited or the weapon was too heavy, so he didn't see the steps clearly, so he fell down with a heavy nose. It hit the ground, stirring up a burst of dust, blood mixed with dust, and then the black dog screamed.
Lao Immortal didn't go over to stop him. Seeing the black dog fall down, he felt secretly proud. Evil will be punished, God has eyes.
The white cat finally couldn't bear it anymore and ran over and kicked the black dog on the butt, "Stop howling in mourning and get up quickly. If this old man is allowed to break into the Duke's mansion easily, we will never be able to do this job." ,".
He is the gatekeeper and the first line of defense for Duke Min's mansion. How can he be easily broken by the enemy? What's more, he is a bad old man. A bloody battle must be fought.
Hei Gou agreed when he heard that it is difficult to find a job now, especially for such a promising career. For this reason, Hei Gou endured the pain and stood up, took the big knife back, took out a stick in the same way, and again The labor saving of wood.
He rushed towards the old immortal first. I have to say that the black dog's momentum is still very good. Children under three years old will definitely be frightened and cry. When they come in front of the old immortal, they will swing the stick hard. This time The old immortal did not dodge, but stretched out a hand to catch the wooden stick, took the wooden stick into his hand with a slight force, and then beat the black dog violently.
The white cat didn't see clearly how the wooden stick got into the old immortal's hand. He just saw the black dog being beaten again and again, howling miserably, and the white cat was heartbroken. He wanted to run away, but when he thought about this hard-won job, he seemed to have made up his mind, gritted his teeth and fought hard, raised the wooden stick and rushed towards the old immortal.
However, when he was still some distance away from dying, the white cat suddenly let out a shrill scream that cut through the sky, stirred up birds and insects, and drowned out the chirping of cicadas on the trees. Then the white cat fell to the ground.
The old immortal was very surprised. Why did this boy faint? Could it be that he was struck by lightning? The old immortal did not think much and continued to teach the black dog. Soon the black dog was subdued and squatted on the ground holding his head and did not dare to move. .
