After everything was done, Yue Guanchao took Song Siyuan to the Liyuan Guild Hall. Lou Yunxian was already waiting outside the Guild Hall. Seeing them return, An Anwen breathed a sigh of relief.
"How is it?" she asked with concern.
"The old lady Chao has woken up. It's not like we ran away in vain. But the old lady Chao has to treat us to a good meal. We may have to wait a few more days before leaving."
Yue Guanchao told the truth that among the people hosting the banquet, there must be Boss Lou and her.
When Lou Yunxian saw that the matter was resolved, the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and he gradually became happy: "It's okay. I've been here for nearly ten days. It's normal to stay for a few more days. You guys happened to be doing some repairs these days." Let’s go to the banquet and be on our way.”
"That's right~" Yue Guanchao looked around: "Chao Wenshun said that he had sent the reward, why didn't I look at it? He was trying to trick us again."
"Look, I've put away all your worries, right here~"
Lou Yunxian pointed at the cabinet with his mouth raised, and Yue Guanchao walked up quickly and opened the cabinet door. He saw that there were three or four layers of red paper packages stacked on a square plate with a large copper basin, adding up to at least 40,000 silver dollars.
Yue Erpao had seen so many Yuan Datou in his life, and his eyes were so happy that he almost burst into tears: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, surnamed Chao is indeed insidious, but he is quite generous, and he really gives it to him if he has money~"
Yue Guanchao weighed the red paper packets. These paper packets were about the length of his hand. The silver coins were pressed tightly and hard. When he tore the paper apart, he could see a bright ocean of silver. He counted one, brought it to his mouth and blew it, and the metal trembled clearly in his ears. It can be seen that it is true and not a fraud.
“They are all genuine~”
Lou Yunxian stood behind him and said with a smile:
"Of course, Chao Linyuan came to give you a thank you gift in person. Master Mao and Geda each have 10,000 silver dollars. As for the three of you, each has 10,000 silver dollars. You can handle the extra 10,000 silver dollars on your own. As for the other people who died in the tomb, I heard that in addition to a one-time compensation of two thousand oceans of compassionate money, the whole family was also provided with a livelihood, so they will have no worries about food and drink for the rest of their lives..."
After listening to what Lou Yunxian told him, Yue Guanchao understood in his heart that the extra 10,000 silver dollars was the reward promised to Master Mao and Ma Chang.
He thought privately that it was true that the Chao family's great career was not easy, but over the millennia, many family trees had fallen apart and scattered, but they were the only ones that remained prosperous, which showed that they still had some real abilities.
There are many things in this world that can only be caused by sharing hardships and not by wealth. The court family is willing to solve the problems of these strong men and their families, which shows how powerful they are in controlling people and governing the countryside. These rewards can be called the distinction between priorities and closeness. Suitable, honest and kind, just the rules of giving rewards show the depth of the Taoism of the court.
Yue Guanchao weighed the silver dollar and sighed: "It's true that this silver coin is heavy on your hands, but we also fought hard to get it, so there's no way it's too much. The real thing we took out of the kiln is worth the old nose's money, that's it." If they cut the Zhang family in half, they can still make the Laochao family prosperous for another five hundred years, so it won't be a loss at all."
"No matter what, I survived a narrow escape. Just have a good rest these days and wait until you return home."
Yue Guanchao shook his head towards the famous actor, with a mysterious look on his face: "I'm afraid I won't be able to take any time off these days. We have to go to Jiaolong Temple again to deal with the matters that need to be resolved."
"Is there anything unresolved?"
Lou Yunxian's beautiful eyes were filled with curiosity.
"You'll know after you go and see it."
Yue and Song blinked, and their mysterious gestures completely piqued Lou Yunxian's curiosity.
The next morning it was dawn, and Yue Guanchao took Mao Ye, Ge Da and the others on the road to Jiaolong Temple again.
…
Drive~
Come on~
By the Jiaoye River, there is first snow and high sun.
In winter, rime hangs all over the branches, melting slightly under the sunlight, as if it were covered with silver pear blossoms. Although the outside of the river is covered with silver, there is no floating ice on the river. The gurgling water is clearly visible, and a misty layer floats on the river. fog.
Farther away, a Wupeng fishing boat was floating on the river.
There were two people sitting on the boat, one old and one young, holding fishing rods and staring at the river meticulously.
The two of them were concentrating on fishing when they suddenly saw the fishing rod shaking and thought it was a fish biting the hook. They hurriedly pulled the fishing line and picked up the hook. They couldn't help but look depressed when they saw Kong Kong above.
"Yu Bo~"
They heard the rumble of wheels in the distance and immediately turned their heads to look at the shore. Yue Guanchao had already got out of the car with his companions.
"Hunters, you just went back yesterday, why are you here again today?"
The old fish man put away his fishing line, paddled to the shore, and led Yue Guantide and the others into the yard.
In the main hall of Jiaolong, Yue Guanchao took out the reward money given by Chao Wenshun and put it on the table. The white pieces were wrapped in red paper and rolled up. They were neatly stacked on two or three levels. It was known that there were nearly ten thousand pieces without counting.
Uncle Yu had never seen this kind of money in his life, and he waved his hand quickly: "Oh, I never thought about taking the money. Besides, I am an old man and I have no place to spend the money!"
Yue Guanchao knew that Old Yu was going to push it back, so he looked at the two people with sincere eyes and said: "Uncle Yu, you should put this money in your pockets. You shouldn't have waded into the muddy water in the first place. It's Chao Dachengfei who greets you." Coming down, I almost made the beast suffocate. You can take this money with peace of mind, and it can also be considered as mental compensation. As for Geda, if you didn't get into the grotto, you guys might not know where to put the corpse, and you still have life to collect the reward. .”
"My benefactor, I went into the grotto purely to repay my kindness, and it had nothing to do with the reward. Even if it was a favor for saving my life, it was you who saved me first. It was just an even deal every time. How could I get so much money. "
