143. Simple folk customs
When I came to the village where Gouzi was, I saw a group of village villagers with twinkling eyes.
Chen Chong's heart is born with a strong heart, and he is not afraid of being criticized by thousands of people, but he is afraid of how many fellow villagers are watching him?
While he laughed and greeted everyone, he asked if he had marked his stuff.
Gouzi is indeed a talented person. When he saw Chen Chong ask a question, he immediately replied: "I asked everyone to mark it, and I also made secret notes to ensure that I won't mess around."
Chen Chong patted the little ghost's head and said with relief: "We have few people in Dong people. When we leave the mountain, we will still kill the Tartars. At that time, we will not only be fellow villagers, but also back-to-back comrades. We can't fight in the nest and ruin our relationship."
Hearing him claiming to himself as "we", an old man asked boldly: "This guy, I wonder if you and the saint are, oh, are you the leader, what is the relationship?"
Although Chen Chongxiang believed that everything was impossible to talk to others, considering that A Ke was by his side, he still had to estimate her feelings.
Then he thought for a while and replied: "Your leader lurked in the palace before and wanted to assassinate the Emperor Qingdog and Oboi. I was also thinking about this at that time.
We joined forces to kill these two people, which was a fateful friendship. In addition, we were both men and women who admired each other."
Everyone around was secretly happy, and their expressions on their faces became much softer, and they even started to talk in a low voice.
"Since that's the case, then you are your own people?"
"Is this a matter of life? Of course, it is not an outsider."
"You didn't pay attention. The leader looked at this guy's eyes, and I guess it must be more than just a friendship that is desperate."
"Is the Dragon Master 21? It's when men and women love each other. My child will hold the child at 18. The leader must hurry up."
"Indeed, the old leader worked hard all his life and never found a man until his death. If the leader Long did the same, I would be sorry..."
Chen Chong felt embarrassed when he heard this, and thought to himself, no matter how much you say, he would say it behind my back, what's the matter?
Just as I was about to start working, I saw the crowd parting and a trembling old woman holding a stick came out.
This old woman Chen Chong remembered that she had sold her a big piece of Polygonatum before and was in good spirits.
At this moment, she was holding a homemade purse in her hand, and seemed a little embarrassed: "Brother, since we are my own people, we can't take advantage of you. I have received too much money from medicinal materials these days, so I'd better find a way to make up for it!"
When the rest of the people heard her say this, they also reacted and nodded at the same time.
"Yes, yes, we are selling mountain goods these days, and we are very expensive, which is really not suitable."
"No one's money was picked up from the ground. Everyone should give it back a little, so don't let the guy lose a lot."
......
Who said that my money was picked up from the ground.
Chen Chong coughed dryly, raised his hand to stop everyone's discussion, and said seriously: "Doing business is the same as a man and a woman. It is a matter of your love and my wish. I didn't feel like I lost money when I bought things before."
As he said that, he walked to a bunch of houses, patted the grain cabinet and asked, "Whose thing is this?"
A thin man raised his hand and walked out of the crowd: "Brother, this is my family."
Chen Chong said ok, then waved his hand and put a bunch of things into his carry-on space.
In the astonished eyes of everyone, he threw something at the thin man.
The pine oil torch shines, and the thing is golden and shining. Although it is only big in the little finger, it can capture people's hearts.
The man quickly took it in his hand and suddenly said in surprise: "Golden Bean?"
With a loud shout, he successfully led everyone around him and rushed to distinguish them.
A child was small and relied on his flexibility to grab the golden beans, stuffed them into his mouth and took a bite.
Looking at the tooth marks on the golden beans, the thin man was in a trance - is it really a golden bean?
"It's indeed a golden bean," Chen Chong's voice sounded at the right time, attracting everyone's eyes to himself: "Not only you have it, but every household in the four villages has it."
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help looking at each other and asked, "What does this mean? Logically speaking, we should ask the brother for help, we should pay for the hard work. You give us gold instead. What's the reason?"
That's right, but Chen Chong has decided to be a boy who spends money.
"Everyone goes to a foreign land to settle down and is going to have to fight with the Tartars. With my relationship with Long'er, I naturally have to help me. I don't lack money anyway."
After hearing what he said, everyone couldn't help but shake their heads.
The thin man held the golden bean and said in a weird tone: "Brother, I, the Dong people, want to live a good life. We are willing to move to Fujian, and there is no reason to take your gold."
I can’t even give away money, so what’s so strange about it?
Chen Chong was a little puzzled, looked at A Ke beside him and signaled her to help him think of a solution.
A Ke nodded with a smile, as if he was not at all unhappy: "This brother, you are the family of Sister Long'er. Brother Chen is here for the first time. According to our Central Plains etiquette, you should also give everyone some gifts. Don't refuse, right?"
Unexpectedly, everyone still refused to follow these words. The thin man shook his head stubbornly, walked to Chen Chong and handed the golden beans back.
"Good intention, we got it, but Jindou, we don't want it. We have helped us move. We can't collect your money anymore."
“Yes, yes, we can’t do that.”
"If you really take the gold, you won't be laughed to death?"
Faced with everyone's talk, Chen Chong had to take back the golden beans and waved his hand to tell him to know.
Let's skip this for the time being, the important thing is!
The man's hands and feet were very quick and he quickly put the miscellaneous items into his own space, but his heart was a little mixed.
This seems something is wrong!
Didn’t people say that in later generations, the reason why barbarians became simple was because machine guns appeared?
Why are these people so upright?
You don’t take advantage of it, and you have such a high level of ideological awareness?
Or did the Dragon Sect use the secret method to brainwash everyone?
He muttered in his heart, but Chen Chong's subordinates were not slow and he put away all the things in a while.
Although he took away the miscellaneous items, the village people actually had to carry some things themselves, not saying that they would not take anything and be a hand-shaking master.
After all, the weather has turned cold now. In addition to bringing rice, grain, and meat to the road, you also have to carry a tent to keep the cold.
As for cattle, horse, donkey and mule, although they can be made of camels, everyone has no intention of bringing them.
It’s already troublesome to eat, and you still have to take care of the animals all the way, so you have to go until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse?
If everyone is taken away, Chen Chong has no intention of scattering coins. The villagers of the village don’t want these money, so they will give it to Long'er at that time.
What I want to bring such a large group of people to settle down is not a small amount of money. Not only tens of thousands of taels, I guess I can’t even build a house I live in.
Long'er is a smart person and has a very different relationship with him. These people are not like him, so Long'er is not the same, right?
Thinking of this, Chen Chong suddenly realized that he hadn't seen Long'er for a long time.
Everyone is about to start, where is the others?
He was puzzled and asked the little dog around him: "Puppy, where is the leader of the Dragon?"
