Zhao Ping had no choice but to go to the west wing.

Wen Hui is not asleep yet.

It should have been agreed upon in advance, knowing that Zhao Ping was coming.

There was a touch of rouge and gouache on her face, which made her white and rosy, pretty and charming.

She also changed into thinner clothes, revealing her exquisite figure.

Even the bed was covered with a white square towel.

The dim candlelight flickered, giving it the feeling of a scene room.

When Wen Hui saw Zhao Ping come in, a hint of surprise appeared on her shy face.

Thinking of what was going to happen next, his face turned redder.

But she didn't hesitate any longer and bravely stepped forward, "Master, let me undress you."

As she said that, she stretched out her little hand to Zhao Ping.

Zhao Ping grabbed it.

He picked her up by the waist.

He is not Liu Xiahui who is sitting still and calm.

But a normal man.

Now that he has traveled to this era and people are actively throwing themselves into his arms, how can Zhao Ping still control him?

After a burst of rustling sounds.

The lights go out and the bed makes a noise.

Qian Liu, who was lying in the thatched shed, couldn't help but feel hot in his heart when he heard the voice coming from the west room.

Should I also find a wife?

Qian Liu asked himself in his heart.

On the second day, Zhao Ping did not hear the crow of the big rooster, but heard Yun Man's excited voice.

"Master, Master, we have caught the tiger."

Zhao Ping thought it was a dream and wanted to continue sleeping with Wen Hui in his arms.

But Wen Hui pushed him away.

"Ms. sir, Yun Man is back. Please go out and have a look."

Wenhui got up first, found Zhao Ping's clothes and helped him put them on before putting on her own clothes.

After Zhao Ping went out, he frowned when he saw the moonless sky, "Yun Man, what time is it now? Why are you shouting so hard? You've disturbed my master to sleep, you know?"

Yun Man is also seventeen years old.

Zhao Ping was seen coming out of the west wing, and Wen Hui was following him.

Her hair was still messy, and she still didn't understand what was going on.

But he didn't care.

As for a man, as long as he can afford it, it's normal to marry a man with three or five bedrooms.

Besides, Wenhui has always lived in the master's house. Although there is no matchmaker to marry, Yun Man has long regarded her as his master's wife in his heart.

The embarrassment flashed past, and he continued: "Master, we have captured the tigress."

"Master, you don't know. We just dug a trap and were about to leave. Before we could go far, we heard a muffled sound from behind. We hurried over and saw that the tiger had fallen into the trap. , had several holes stabbed in his body, and he was already dying..."

Yunman danced and narrated vividly.

Only then did Zhao Ping see Xia Quan and the others carrying a tiger into the yard.

There are many bloody holes in the tiger's body and it is still bleeding.

Although it is smaller than the male tiger yesterday, it still weighs more than three hundred kilograms.

Not only can you receive a reward of thirty taels of silver, but you can also sell it for dozens of taels of silver, which is another huge income.

Zhao Ping said happily: "Yes, let's go to the county town and sell them after dinner."

"How much money do you get?"

"Mr. Zhao, this is impossible."

Xia Quan said: "You provided the method to catch the tiger, we just did some work."

"Yunman is your apprentice again, and we are all your slaves. We can't ask for money."

Deciding to be a slave to Zhao Ping, Xia Quan even changed his title.

Zhao Ping couldn't laugh or cry, and it took him a while to finally decide on the title.

Xia Quan calls Brother Ping, and the other four respectfully call him Sir.

As for the money, they were determined not to want it, and Zhao Ping did not give in anymore.

Just get some more wine later.

Anyway, it will make up for them.

After dinner, everyone carried the two tigers onto the carriage and still asked Li Shou to help drive the carriage.

Zhao Ping rode on horseback, and Xia Quan and others rushed to the county seat in a donkey cart.

Go to the county government first to receive the silver reward.

Zhao Ping didn't want to show up because he was worried about scaring Ma Jiu and making him afraid to go to Xiping Village to look for trouble.

That way there was no way to take revenge, so he asked Yun Man to collect it on his behalf.

When the county magistrate Huang Fengnian saw the two tigers that had been killed, he kept praising Yun Man and readily gave him money.

And also extended an invitation to Yunman.

I want him to work as a yamen servant in the county government, and I will give him a monthly salary of 300 cents.

It's a pity that Yun Man doesn't like it at all.

Huang Fengnian didn't try to persuade him anymore. He personally put a big red flower on his head and asked the government officials to escort him through the streets.

Beating gongs and drums, it’s so lively.

Seeing this, everyone gathered around and inquired about the situation one by one.

Yun Man did not tell the truth.

Just say it is the credit of the Tiger Fighting Team.

But when everyone saw the red flower on Yun Man's chest, he must be the main force.

He praised him very much.

Killing two tigers at once would save their crops from harm, and the risk of digging wild vegetables in the mountains would be greatly reduced.

So the onlookers were very grateful to Yunman.

Some people even wanted to introduce a wife to Yun Man, which made Yun Man blush.

Xia Cun, the village chief of Xia Cun, is also among them.

I felt something was wrong when I heard these words, but I didn't delve into it.

Yunman is Zhao Ping's apprentice, so it is normal for him to do these things on behalf of his master.

The only curious ones were the two tigers.

He remembered that he had just killed one.

Let's ask Xia Quan later. Right now, it's more important to do business.

The head of Xiping Village was killed by a tiger, and a new one must be elected.

Find Huang Fengnian and report the truth truthfully.

Snapped!

Huang Fengnian slammed the table and stood up angrily.

He said angrily: "What a good Hu Xingye. He occupies the position of village chief, but does nothing about human affairs. He actually encouraged his concubine to hunt and kill tiger cubs, and even brought them home to cook and eat. The tigers he provoked entered the village and caused a big disaster. He died. It’s not a pity.”

"Come here, go to Xiping Village and ransack Hu Xingye's house."

"Take all the remaining people to Yahang and sell them, and they will be slaves forever."

Xia Tian didn't say anything, he just felt unworthy for Hu Xingye in his heart.

Why do you have so many concubines when you have nothing to do?

If one person fails to control it, not only the entire family property will be ruined, but also the descendants will be affected and they will be slaves for the rest of their lives.

However, Xia Tian didn't care about Hu Xingye's family situation, but continued to ask, "Magistrate Huang, now that the head of Xiping Village is dead, who will be the head of the village?"

"After the autumn harvest is over, taxes will have to be paid. What will happen if there is no village chief to take charge?"

"Xiping Village?"

Huang Fengnian thought for a moment and said, "I remember that the tiger-fighting hero was from Xiping Village, right?"

"My name is Yun Man, yes, yes, my name is Yun Man."

"That boy has a future. He has hunted two tigers at a young age. I will appoint him as the head of Xiping Village next."

Xia Tian wanted to say that the hero of fighting tigers was Zhao Ping.

But then I thought about it, Yun Man was Zhao Ping's apprentice and obeyed Zhao Ping's words.

When he is the village chief, it is equivalent to Zhao Ping being the village chief.

I feel relieved.

After reporting on the situation in Xia Cun again, he said goodbye and left.

When I was leaving the county house, I happened to bump into Zhao Ping and asked unexpectedly: "Zhao boy, why are you at the county house?"

"Do something."

Zhao Ping smiled and said, "Village Chief Xia, what are you doing here?"

"What else can we do? Of course we should report the tiger entering the village to Magistrate Huang."

Xia Tian said.

"What did the county magistrate say?"

In the summer, Huang Fengnian's execution was told.

Zhao Ping was directly shocked.

Although he has traveled through so many days, he has also seen the cruelty of this society.

But I didn't expect it to be so cruel.

No matter how you say it, Hu Xingye is still the head of the village, but because his concubine ate a tiger cub, the tiger was attracted to the village.

But all those killed were members of Hu Xingye's family.

There was no damage to other humans or animals.

Huang Fengnian even ransacked his home and made his whole family into slaves, who would never be able to stand up again.

This is equivalent to directly cutting off the Hu family's escape route.

Huang Fengnian was only a seventh-grade county magistrate, yet he had such great energy.

Look at the small and see the big.

What about my father-in-law, whom I have never met but is related to the royal family?

Doesn’t the energy reach a sky-high level?

Zhao Ping felt even more nervous.

He must speed up his development, otherwise when that day comes, he won't even be qualified to have face-to-face conversations with others.

This time, Yunman's parade has ended.

Huang Fengnian publicly announced that he would be the village chief of Xiping Village and issued a formal document.

Yunman was a little at a loss.

Xia Quan was more experienced and dragged Yun Man to his knees to thank him.

After selling the tiger, he went to the agreed place to find Zhao Ping.

The location is Qian Mansion.

Qian Liu has been living in Zhao Ping's house, so the place has been idle, and it has been used as a place for Zhao Ping and others to come to the county to do business.

Even Xia Zhixue, who was monitoring Ma Jiu, also lived in Qian Mansion.

Xia Quan handed the silver to Zhao Ping. The two rewards were sixty taels. The male tiger was sold for eighty taels, and the tigress was only given sixty taels, making a total of one hundred and forty taels.

Zhao Ping gave each of the six of them twelve taels.

Even Li Shou got two taels of silver.

Everyone's happiness was written on their faces, and each one of them vowed to follow Zhao Ping well.

The speed of making money is also too fast.

Zhao Ping found another restaurant and gave them a good meal before leading them back to Xiping Village.

As soon as he arrived, Wenhui greeted him.

"Ms. Hu Xingye's house was ransacked, shall we go shopping for something?"

"Looking for something?"

Zhao Ping was a little confused, "What do you mean?"
