He Zhiran looked like she suddenly realized it. If Peng Wang hadn't mentioned it, she would have almost forgotten about killing the wolf last night.

Hearing Peng Wang ask her how to deal with it, He Zhiran was not so carried away that he forgot his current identity.

This is because Peng Wang is a good person, considering their wishes.

If it were a black-hearted official like that, people wouldn't care who killed the wolf. Wouldn't it be nice to get it in the city to exchange for money?

Therefore, He Zhiran did not turn his back on his guests, but instead asked, "What are Mr. Peng's plans?"

Peng Wang spread his hands and told the truth.

"If it were in the past and I killed so many wolves, I wouldn't consider whose credit it was and just send them to the city for money."

These words were true enough to the ears of He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye.

To put it bluntly, they were nothing more than exiled prisoners trying to make ends meet under the hands of these officials. The fact that Peng Wang could say something like this to them meant that he no longer treated them as prisoners.

Such a person is definitely worth getting to know deeply.

In fact, when Peng Wang asked this question, He Zhiran already had a plan in mind.

Now that she understood Peng Wang's thoughts, she no longer held back.

"Master Peng, even if you send the wolf to the city in exchange for money, I'm afraid you won't be able to get much, right?"

Peng Wang nodded: "Last year, we killed two wild wolves on the road and sent them to the city. They paid one tael of silver for each."

He Zhiran raised his eyebrows: "Can you send the wolf to the leather goods?"

"Well, the owner of the fur shop said that no one eats wolf meat and only buys it based on the price of the fur."

In fact, Peng Wang thinks that one tael of silver and one wolf is already very good. After all, he doesn't feel too little for the free silver.

What's more, we killed so many wild wolves last night. If we pay one tael for each one, we can still get fifty taels!

He came here to discuss, on the one hand out of respect for the two of them, and on the other hand, he thought that if they agreed to his proposal, he would bring up the matter of dividing the money.

However, judging from He Zhiran's attitude, she seemed to disapprove of taking the wild wolf to a fur shop to exchange for money.

"If I could make these wolves more valuable, would Mr. Peng be willing?"

"How could I not want to do this?" Peng Wang replied without thinking.

He Zhiran glanced around, thinking that the wolves killed last night were mostly due to her and Mo Jiuye, but she also saw that the men of the Xie family and Fang family also contributed, and they couldn't let them go in vain. Get busy.

What's more, neither the Xie family nor the Fang family have any money, so continuing to support them like this is not a long-term solution. It is better to let them take the opportunity to earn some money.

I believe that this way, the Xie family and the Fang family will be more confident in the future.

"Master Peng, if I can help these wild wolves gain more profits, can I distribute the money they get?"

"Of course." Based on Peng Wang's understanding of He Zhiran, this woman has a lot of clever ideas. If she said she could get more profits, she would definitely do it.

He Zhiran got the affirmative answer and immediately became energetic.

I couldn't enjoy the comfortable massage service for the time being, so I stood up.

"Come on, let's take people to deal with those wolves now."

Mo Jiuye was also curious about how He Zhiran could make those wolves gain more profits.

So, he followed.

He Zhiran called over the men from the Xie family and the Fang family.

Then he looked at Peng Wang: "Master Peng, the first thing we have to do is to peel off these wolf skins."

Hearing this, Peng Wang had already guessed He Zhiran's plan, which was to sell these wolf skins alone. Each wolf skin could still be sold for one tael of silver.

However, the wolf meat was worthless at all. Where was the extra profit she said?

Even though he was confused, he still chose to support He Zhiran. He wanted to see how this woman turned the wolf meat into treasure.

He ordered the officer to take out his daggers and send them all to He Zhiran.

He Zhiran casually picked up a dagger, pulled the hind legs of a wolf and quickly started skinning it.

Seeing this, Mo Jiuye also picked up a dagger and went to help.

The men from the Xie family and the Fang family also imitated the two men and started to take action.

He Zhiran did not forget to remind him to be careful and not to skin the wolf skin badly, as that would result in less money being sold.

Some of the more courageous female relatives also came over to help. Before dinner started, they had already skinned twenty wolf skins.

Now that the Li family has been sent back to the capital to resettle, the He family seems even more out of place here.

Holding the black-faced steamed buns in their hands, they looked at those people who were so busy that they even began to regret going against the Mo family.

It's a good thing now. Not only do I eat black-faced steamed buns that can kill people all day long, but I'm also completely isolated...

It has to be said that the Mo family, Fang family and Xie family have naturally regarded the He family as nothing, and don't even bother to look at them.

The officials had no choice but to look even if they didn't want to. Especially after Li Rouer's incident, they became more vigilant and had to check the number of people every time they looked at the He family.

The treatment of the other three families was completely different from that of the He family. Although the food was not comparable to the luxury they once had, they were very satisfied with what they could eat on the way to exile.

Seeing that several families and the officials could live in harmony and even eat delicious meals, the eyes of the He family were filled with anger.

Everyone has already adapted to this kind of look and simply chooses to ignore it.

After breakfast, He Zhiran saw that those people were so proficient in skinning wolves that they could do it independently, so he ran to do other things.

She called the female relatives, and together they cut the wolf meat into thumb-thick strips, and then quietly took out some seasonings for marinating in the space.

During the process of curing the meat, the other female family members continued to cut the meat, and He Zhiran pulled Mo Jiuye to the river.

If she remembered correctly, when she was filling the water bag by the river yesterday, she saw a very thin bluestone slab there.

Mo Jiuye was dragged to the river by his wife, still looking confused.

I was wondering if she still wanted him to help with the massage. She was embarrassed in front of so many people, so she took him to find a secluded place?

Just when Mo Jiuye was thinking that he must work harder to massage his wife this time, He Zhiran pointed to a bluestone slab by the river and said:

"Let's take this stone slab to the river, clean it, and then use it to dry the meat."

Washing bluestone?

BBQ jerky?

For a moment, Mo Jiuye's brain circuit was a little confused.

When he saw that He Zhiran had already taken the first step to lift the side of the bluestone, Mo Jiuye completely woke up.

Without thinking too much, he stepped forward and pulled He Zhiran aside, and moved the bluestone slab to the river with one force.

He Zhiran pulled a handful of stiffer grass and quickly squatted by the river to wash the bluestone.

There is no way, this can only be done in special times.

Mo Jiuye also imitated her example and helped with the scrubbing.
