The hunters in the mountains stared at Gong Jian eagerly, wondering what good idea this young man had. It would not only allow the girl who sold her body to bury her father to stick to her principles, but also ensure the girl's life for the rest of her life.
Seeing that the fire was almost done, Gong Jian threw out the final bait, "If a third person appears now, he will also give a piece of silver to the girl who sold her body to bury her father, and then the white-robed young man will take back his own money. This question
It's easy to solve. In this way, it means that the girl is the slave of a person. If the person's family background is simple and kind-hearted, the girl has found support, and the problem can be solved satisfactorily.
Already."
When the Orion heard what Gong Jian said, he hesitated for a moment and then nodded, but there was always a slightly sour feeling spreading in his heart. But he had to admit that the little man in front of him
The solution his brother gave him to solve the problem was really effective.
If a new person appears and is willing to spend money to buy this girl, then the girl in front of her who sold her body to bury her father will not have to be tied up and dragged together with the white-robed young man.
The Villa Orion looked at Gong Jian with a slightly strange look, and he said softly: "So, little brother, are you planning to be the third person?"
The tone of Orion's question was very soft and slightly strange. After he finished asking this question, he stared directly at Gong Jian, waiting for his answer.
Gong Jian didn't care at all about the strange behavior of the Orion. He shook his head gently and then said: "Brother, please stop joking. Although my family has a small amount of assets, our family is not a user.
The kind of person who calls for slaves. I have no intention of being the hero who rescues that girl."
Contrary to Gong Jian's reaction of shaking his head in denial, Orion's eyes became brighter and brighter, but then, after he thought of something else, his bright eyes darkened after a moment. He lowered his head and thought about this problem.
After a while, he raised his head again and asked Gong Jian: "Little brother, how much money did the white-robed young man give that girl just now?"
The hunter in the mountain was indeed not paying attention just now to how much money the white-robed young man paid the girl who sold her body to bury her father. Therefore, when he recalled what Gong Jian said just now, he couldn't remember it.
We can only ask Gong Jian again for the specific amount.
Fortunately, Gong Jian did not hesitate and uttered two words directly: "Twelve." However, when he heard Gong Jian's light words of "twelve", the hunter in the mountain suddenly calmed down. He did not expect that this would happen.
The young man in white robe actually spent so much money. These ten taels of silver were enough to cover the expenses of a family of three for a year.
At this time, he touched the copper plates in his chest pocket and couldn't help but sigh again. He sold the dry firewood he had saved for several days today, but he only made less than one tael of silver. Even if he continued
There was nothing he could do to help the girl. When he thought of this, Orion's mood immediately became a lot darker. When he thought of the fragile, pitiful and upright girl outside, Orion felt a wave of heartache.
But what can he do? A penny can stump a heroic man, and this is still ten taels of silver. Even if he sells himself now, he probably won't be able to earn these ten taels of silver.
Gong Jian, who was observing Orion's expression from the side, saw that his expression changed several times, but in the end he was so disappointed that he could not speak. Gong Jian then said from the side: "Oh, actually I also sympathize with that girl. Originally, we brothers
We went to the city this time just to buy things for home. Before we left, our parents did give us two brothers some money to buy things for us.
Although we brothers can get these ten taels of silver, but if we buy this girl and go back, it will be difficult for us to go back and make business. Not to mention how to settle this girl in the future, it will also be a big problem. "
After saying this, Gong Jian deliberately let out a long sigh beside him, expressing his helplessness. But when he heard what Gong Jian just said, the two brothers had ten taels of silver, the hunter's eyes looked like
The hunter got a flash of joy. When he heard what Gong Jian said later, that they could not buy the girl, the Orion was even more excited.
When Gong Jian finished sighing, he pretended to lower his head and stood aside, as if he felt that the matter in front of him had nothing to do with him. Instead, he stopped talking, as if he had put the matter aside.
A look of struggle and hesitation appeared on the Orion's face. After a moment, he seemed to have made up his mind. He walked to Gong Jianjian with firm eyes, and then said in a low voice: "Well, then, this little brother, I will follow you."
You discuss something."
Gong Jian pretended to be surprised and raised his head, but still said politely: "If you have any questions, please tell me. If you can help me, I will definitely help."
Hearing Gong Jian's cheerful agreement, the hunter in the mountains hesitated a little, "Little brother, I think you also sympathize with the girl outside, and you also want to help her escape from the sea of suffering, right?"
At this time, Gong Jian already knew that the hunter in the mountains had taken the bait. Although he wanted to be happy in his heart, he still maintained the dejected look on his face, "Hey, yes. I really want to
Help her, but the family is too strict. If I take this girl home, it will definitely not be a good thing for her. "
The Orion's eyes flashed, and after a moment of silence as if he was trying to organize his words, he gritted his molar teeth and said simply: "Then can this little brother lend me ten taels of silver? I can write you an IOU.
Although I can't pay you back the money all at once, I will save the money as soon as possible and pay it back to you as soon as possible."
The Orion was a little stuttered when he first spoke, but the words became smoother and smoother. In the end, he almost finished the words at once like pouring beans through a bamboo tube. After he finished speaking, his eyes stared nervously.
I looked at Gong Jian and wanted to see Gong Jian's reaction.
So what was Gong Jian's reaction? He first showed some surprise, and then pretended to be thoughtful. When the Orion next to him became so nervous that his eyes almost popped out of his sockets, Gong Jian nodded.
"I think my eldest brother is also a real person. If you can tell me what you are doing with the money, and it does not violate human ethics, then I can lend it to you." (To be continued)
