Chapter 10 Now we are prosperous

"Hi hi yo!"

Under the night, Su Anlin held the tiger's forelimbs and walked forward with difficulty.

"Just think of it as exercise. The fat on your belly will fall off, your vest line, and your mermaid line. I want..."

"elder brother!"

"An Lin, An Lin, did you hear that?"

"Someone is looking for me."

Su Anlin was overjoyed: "I'm here! I'm here!"

"Oh, the Su family boy is really alive." A woman blurted out.

"elder brother!"

Su Yuyu strode over, but tripped and fell, her face covered in mud.

Fortunately, it doesn't hurt if I fall.

She immediately got up, wiped her face, and ran over immediately.

"Run slower." Su Anlin reminded quickly.

"The boy from the Su family is over there, hurry up and get there."

Village chief Huang Youcai shouted.

"Hey, there is a big yellow guy over there from the Su family, what is that?"

Sharp-eyed villagers noticed something was wrong.

"It looks like a tiger," a woman shouted.

"How is it possible that if it were really a tiger, the boy from the Su family would still be able to thrive?"

"That's right."

"No, I do look like a tiger."

Some villagers held torches in their hands. They were all begged by Su Yuyu to come.

Some people were afraid of tigers and were reluctant to come at first. Later, Su Yuyu told them to stay on the other side of the field and not enter the mountain.

Everyone saw that Su Yuyu was pitiful, and then the village chief summoned people to look for Su Anlin.

In fact, when they came, many people gave up hope.

Unexpectedly, he was fine. It seemed that he could not eat at the table.

"Oh, it's really a tiger."

Suddenly, someone noticed something was wrong.

He was so frightened that he turned around and ran away: "Daughter-in-law, run quickly, tiger, there is a tiger."

"ah……"

"It's really a tiger."

"Don't be anxious, everyone!" Su Anlin shouted: "The tiger has been killed by me, killed by me, this is a dead tiger."

"What?"

Everyone was stunned and stood there, neither coming nor leaving.

Su Anlin took the initiative to walk to Su Yuyu, took the torch, walked to the tiger, and shined the torch on the corpse.

"Look, everyone, I killed the tiger."

Village chief Huang Youcai pulled the Orion Uncle Li who was about to run away: "Why are you running? The tiger is dead."

"How is it possible? Tigers are so powerful, how could they..."

After Uncle Li finished speaking, when he saw the motionless tiger corpse next to Su Anlin's torch, he immediately froze: "It's really motionless."

"Hurry up, the Su family boy is going to be famous now."

Huang Youcai shouted: "Go over and lend a hand and carry the tiger back."

Seeing that the tiger was really motionless, some people gathered around him.

"It's really a tiger. It's the first time I've seen it."

"Good guy, is this dead?"

"Boy from the Su family, you are too powerful. How did you do this?"

For a moment, everyone looked at Su Anlin differently.

Uncle Li patted the tiger and sighed: "Good guy, this is a tiger. My two brothers encountered this thing before and were bitten to death. Su Anlin, I really belong to you."

Huang Youcai said with a smile: "If other villages find out tomorrow, the Su family boy who comes to you for matchmaking will probably have to break down the door of your house."

As he said this, Huang Youcai thought of his daughter.

It's a pity that my daughter has already gone to the martial arts gym.

Otherwise, he could ask his daughter to consider Su Anlin.

If nothing else, if Su Anlin sells the tiger this time, he can make at least a few hundred taels of silver.

Others also thought of this, and for a moment, they all looked envious.

"Okay, it's so late, let's go back first," Aunt Zhang said.

"Come and help." Huang Youcai shouted: "Carry the tiger back."

Su Anlin clasped his fists at everyone: "Thank you for your help. I won't forget you all when the tiger is sold."

"It's easy to talk about."

"Hahaha……"

Seeing that Su Anlin was so smart, everyone worked a lot harder.

"rise!"

Several men grabbed the tiger's legs and walked back.

On the way, many people asked how to kill a tiger.

"I am an archer. I climbed up a tree and the tiger couldn't catch me. I just shot it a few times and killed it."

Su Anlin said casually.

Uncle Li pricked up his ears and looked envious: "I'll buy a bow tomorrow too."

"Please tell me, my son is about to ask for a wife. How much money did you spend on the bow?" said Uncle Li's wife.

Everyone returned home talking and laughing.

Su Anlin thanked him again and everyone left.





Early the next morning.

As soon as Su Anlin opened the door, neighbors came over to see the tiger.

"This tiger can be sold for a lot of money. I am very lucky now."

"Isn't that so? I'm so darling, I can't lift a single leg." A woman said, lifting the tiger's leg.

"Boy from the Su family, you can make money by selling tigers. Don't forget about us all." A woman said with a smile while eating melon seeds.

"Okay, okay, Su Anlin must have been very tired last night. You guys didn't know how to let them rest, so they all dispersed."

Huang Youcai came over, quite majestic.

Then he pulled Su Anlin aside and said, "An Lin, it's best to deal with this tiger in the past two days. It's not easy to deal with when it stink."

"Well, I'm going to go to the city today." After thinking about it, Su Anlin said: "Village chief, why don't you go with us, call Uncle Li, Uncle Zhang, and trouble Brother Huang Qiang again."

Huang Qiang is Huang Youcai's son.

If you help carry the tiger carcass to the city, you can get some lucky money.

If two people from the village chief's family help, they can get two pieces of wedding money. Su Anlin naturally did this on purpose.

Last night Su Yuyu begged her grandma to tell her grandpa that everyone would go find him, but most people were not happy.

Fortunately, Huang Youcai made the decision and took people to the fields, so the favor was returned.

As for looking for Uncle Li and Uncle Zhang.

Uncle Li is a hunter, he has connections and knows who will catch the tiger.

Uncle Zhang lives next door, moves around a lot, and has a good relationship.

Huang Youcai nodded slightly and secretly said to Su Anlin.

He didn't point it out, nodded and said: "Okay, I'll ask Huang Qiang to push out my trolley."

"That's troublesome."

"It's okay, I'll call someone."

Huang Youcai turned around and called for help.

After a while.

Su Anlin took a few mouthfuls of food and saw Huang Youcai coming with his son Huang Qiang.

Huang Qiang was pulling a cart with two wooden wheels, followed by Uncle Li and Uncle Zhang.

Su Anlin quickly put down the empty bowl and turned around and said, "Sister, I'm going to the city. Do you want to bring anything?"

"It's nothing, the family is not lacking." After thinking about it, Su Yuyu said again: "Don't waste money."

"Well."

Although Su Anlin didn't say anything, he decided to buy some clothes. Su Yuyu had too few clothes and couldn't even change them.

My only coat was torn last night and I needed to buy more clothes.

In addition, the quilts at home also stinked, were pitch black, and were not warm at all.

It's almost winter, so this won't work.

After thinking about it, I looked at my house and it didn't seem right.

He sighed: "How about buying another house?"

This house is too dilapidated. The exterior wall is made of mud and has cracks.

There is a break here on the top, and there is a hole there. When it rains, it means heavy rain outside and light rain inside.

And he will definitely not make a living from farming in the future, because the land has already been sold.

In this case, it is better to go to the city and learn martial arts which is more convenient.

"Anlin."

Huang Youcai's voice interrupted Su Anlin's thinking.

"Hey, here we come."

Su Anlin wiped his mouth and carried the tiger onto the cart with everyone.

"Walk!"

Huang Qiang and Uncle Zhang were pulling the cart in front. Su Anlin and Uncle Li were pushing from behind.

Huang Youcai was leading the way. He knew many people, had some style, and didn't do much work.

As they walked, Uncle Li said: "An Lin, let's go to the City Lord's Mansion first and collect the reward later. Do you want to go to the vegetable market to sell it or sell it to an Erdao dealer?"

In this ancient time, every place was under the control of the city lord and had great power.

Uncle Li went on to explain: "If you go to the wet market, they sell it in bulk. If the price is higher, it will be troublesome. If you are not lucky, you won't be able to sell it. If you give it to the second dealer, you will be less worried, but the price will be lower."

Su Anlin did not hesitate: "Let's give it to the second dealer."

They don't know how to cut meat. If the tiger skin is damaged, it won't be sold at a high price.

Uncle Li nodded in agreement: "That's okay, I'll make a few more inquiries."

Enter the city.

Onlookers gathered in three circles inside and three outside.

This is a tiger. Its huge body gives people a great visual impact.

Huang Qiang and others held their heads high, as if they had killed the tiger, and their vanity was greatly satisfied.

Especially the village chief Huang Youcai, who knew many acquaintances, waved around as if reviewing.

Common people, thank you for your hard work...

'This is really leadership material.'

Su Anlin found it a bit funny.

Finally, we arrived at the City Lord's Mansion. Three government servants came out of the City Lord's Mansion.

Killing tigers, monsters, lunatics, etc. is to eliminate harm for the people, and the government will not embarrass them.

So the yamen officer inspected the tiger's carcass, asked about the hunting process, and cut off one of the tiger's front paws.

This also prevents people from claiming rewards repeatedly.

"Here, click, one hundred taels of silver!" The yamen servant held up a heavy wooden box.

Su Anlin rubbed his hands excitedly and opened the box.

The shining silver made his eyes light up.

He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Thank you Mr. Cha."

After leaving here, under the persuasion of the village chief, Su Anlin immediately went to the largest bank opened by the local city lord.

In this way, the eighty taels were exchanged for five 10-tael silver notes, leaving the remaining fifty taels for shopping.

As soon as Su Anlin came out of the bank, he saw a lot of people gathered around the trolley, and they knew Uncle Li.

"Lao Li, it's okay, you can even hunt a tiger!"

"Tell me, how much silver is it? This tiger skin looks good to me."

"Make a price!"

These people were all wildlife dealers nearby. I heard that someone had brought tigers here, so I came over as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, they were acquaintances, so they came to say hello one by one.

Lao Li laughed and said: "This is not what I hunted, but my little brother from the village."

He pointed at Su Anlin.

A group of people immediately gathered around.

Huang Youcai came up to the rescue: "Don't make things difficult for others, business is business, favor is favor, the one with the highest price wins!"

In one sentence, simple and clear.

Lao Li interjected: "Hey, I remember last year, two brothers from the Wu family in Shatou Village brought a tiger and sold it for about 700 taels, right? And that end was hacked to death with a knife and the skin was injured. Look at our end,

The skin is quite good.”

"There's a hole in my stomach," one person said.

"It doesn't matter, let's just set a price." Lao Li said.

"Okay, I'll pay 750."

"I'm 760."

When several businessmen shouted, they deliberately blinked their eyes.

Good guys, we turned out to be a group of co-writers. When we shouted 760, no one stopped shouting.

Su Anlin saw it and was about to speak when Lao Li said, "Forget the price, I'll go to the vegetable market and ask."

"Hey, don't worry, we will discuss it later."

Finally, after bargaining, the price was 880 taels.

Prices here are different from what Su Anlin knew in ancient times.

He used to remember reading Pan Jinlian's story in bed. She bought Wu Dalang a second-floor facade for only twenty or thirty taels of silver.

It can be imagined that the purchasing power of silver is quite strong.

But here, it is obviously much weaker.

Of course, the materials and sizes are also different.

The silver here is much smaller.

The silver in Pan Jinlian's hand can be grasped by an adult's hand.

Here, one hand can hold three or four, and the material is not that pure.

The transaction is completed and payment is made by bank check.

Su Anlin went to the bank account to check the authenticity. After confirming that there was no problem, the transaction was completed.

"Haha, this is a big deal."

Su Anlin came out happily: "Let's go to the restaurant in front for dinner first."

When you have money, you naturally want to reward everyone.

Huang Youcai said: "What kind of restaurant are you going to? Just go to a restaurant and have a meal."

After saying that, he walked towards the noodle shop and said as he walked: "An Lin, this money is a good thing, but it may also cause disaster. You have made a fortune this time. You can't hide it. Be careful in the future."

Uncle Li said from the side: "That's right, don't play around, marry a wife and live a good life."

"Um."

Su Anlin nodded, took out the silver, and handed over two coins each.

"Huh? That's too much." Huang Youcai said.

In fact, they thought that it would be enough for Su Anlin to give him food, drink and some copper coins.

Giving them two pieces of silver at once made them embarrassed.

"No more, no more, let everyone take care of me during this period. I have money now, so I can't forget my roots."

Su Anlin said it very seriously.

Huang Youcai said: "This..."

He glanced at the person next to him.

Uncle Li was a little moved, but he was still embarrassed: "An Lin, how about we take less..."

"Oh, take it, you're welcome." Su Anlin said with a smile.

Be generous in your actions and people will like you in the future.

Just like what Huang Youcai said just now, he has revealed his wealth now. If you are a digger, who will help you if you encounter trouble in the future?
