"Looking for me? How can I help the girl?" the village chief couldn't help but ask.
"The village chief's surname is Ma. Can I call you Uncle Ma?"
"This can't be done. Just call me Lao Ma." The village chief waved his hands.
Zhu Hongyan just smiled and said, "Uncle Ma, I'm here to ask you for something."
Seeing that the other party insisted on calling him Uncle Ma, the village chief couldn't say anything else. However, the scream of Uncle Ma really made his bones go numb.
"Miss Zhu, why do you need to be so polite? If you have any questions, just ask."
"I heard that salt can be produced here. I would like to ask Uncle Ma to get a batch of salt for me. As for the reward, I will never treat Uncle Ma badly." Zhu Hongyan said.
"Salt?" The village chief was stunned for a moment.
Seeing the village chief's expression, Zhu Hongyan was stunned for a moment, "What? Could it be that Uncle Ma can't get salt?"
"Miss Zhu, who did you hear that we can produce salt here?" the village chief asked.
"Can't salt be produced here?" Zhu Hongyan just asked.
"Miss Zhu, you may be looking in the wrong place. We do have something here, but it's not salt, it's something called gypsum. If Miss Zhu wants gypsum, that's no problem. I can do whatever you want for Zhu. The girl made it, but there is really no salt." said the village chief.
Seeing that the village chief didn't look like he was lying, Zhu Hongyan was stunned.
Mr. Xu Mingming said that there is a salt mine here, how could it not produce salt.
"Miss Zhu, it was Li Qian who told you that salt is produced here?" the village chief glanced at Zhu Hongyan and asked.
Zhu Hongyan smiled and said, "Maybe salt is really produced here, but you don't know."
The village chief shook his head and said, "Miss Zhu, I've returned this ingot of gold to you. I really can't help you with the help you want from me."
As he spoke, he also took out the ingot of gold and placed it on Zhu Hongyan's carriage.
Then he shouted to A Xing who was standing aside, "Why are you still standing there? Take out the things and give them back to Miss Zhu."
Although Ah Xing was extremely reluctant to give up, he had no choice but to return the gold.
"Uncle Ma, why is this necessary? I specially gave this gold to you as a filial piety. There is no reason to take it back." Zhu Hongyan ordered the horseman to return the gold to them.
However, the village chief took A Xing and left directly, "Miss Zhu, this gold is too valuable. It is not affordable for us mountain villagers. If you want to find Li Qian, just go to him directly. There is no need to look for him again." As for me, in fact, he has always been in charge of matters in the village."
Seeing the village chief's disappearing figure, Zhu Hongyan also frowned.
She had underestimated these villagers, and they were still not moved by the gold.
The village chief walked away in a hurry, without even looking back.
Ah Xing turned his head several times.
Not to mention the gold, Miss Zhu was so beautiful that he felt he hadn't seen enough.
After walking a certain distance, the village chief turned around and saw A Xing looking back.
He couldn't help shouting, "Have you never seen a beautiful woman?"
Ah Xing scratched his head and said, "Village Chief, you are quite right. I have never been out of the village to meet beautiful women."
"The women in Fucheng are just beautiful!"
He also praised sincerely.
The village chief glared at him angrily, "This woman is trying to take advantage of our village. No matter how beautiful she is, it doesn't matter. Do you still want to ask her to be your wife?"
Ah Xing shook his head desperately, "How could I be so lucky to have such a woman as my wife?"
Then he suddenly recalled the village chief's words, "Village chief, are you saying that she is trying to trick our village? What kind of idea is it? Our village can really produce salt, right?"
"Stop talking nonsense to me and go back quickly." The village chief just shouted.
"Also, you are not allowed to tell anyone else what happened today, okay?"
Although Ah Xing didn't understand why the village chief didn't allow him to tell others what happened today, he didn't dare to ask anything.
After all, all he could think about now was Zhu Hongyan, and he really didn't bother to care about other things.
Zhu Hongyan's carriage came to the town.
The biggest restaurant in town.
Mr. Xu sat leaning against the window, pouring himself a glass of wine.
Zhu Hongyan walked up angrily, picked up the wine bottle and poured herself a glass of wine.
Then drink it all in one gulp.
Xu Laowei smiled and said, "Why, things are not going well?"
