"Everyone, take a good look. This 1,000 gold is hidden in this wooden barrel.”
Qin Yu took the wooden bucket used for washing gauze into the room and said to everyone.
At this moment, the wooden bucket was full. The top layer was wet clothes, and it did not look like there was gold inside.
"Young Master Qin, are you trying to fool me? This bucket is full of clothes, where did the gold come from?”County Magistrate Xun Gan questioned Qin Yu.
Fan Li was also waiting to see Qin Yu make a fool of himself.
"Yi Guang, is there really a thousand gold inside?”Old Man Shi asked softly.
Xi Shi also did not know how to answer. She kept quiet and was secretly worried for Qin Yu.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Qin Yu lifted the wet clothes at the top of the wooden bucket, revealing the pure gold below. There was a full half of the bucket.
It could be said that it blinded the eyes of the surrounding officials. This was the first time they had seen so much gold, and they were so excited that they swallowed their saliva.
Xi Shi also covered her mouth. She was the one who had brought back the bucket with wet clothes. When did it have so much gold?
Although Fan Li often sees so much money, he is a little embarrassed. He was about to slap Qin Yu in the face just now, but now he has been slapped in the face by Qin Yu.
Moreover, the most infuriating thing is that Fan Li is representing the State of Yue and has brought 100 gold with him. However, Qin Yu alone has casually taken out 1000 gold!
This dignified State of Yue was actually inferior to a passing merchant. It was too embarrassing.
"Um."
Fan Li paused, not knowing what to say.
"Physician Fan Li, what else do you have to say? Yi Guang has been bought by me for a thousand gold coins as a maid. If I don't agree, no one can take her away.”Said Qin Yu in an arrogant manner.
Fan Li had nothing to say, but the county magistrate at the side said,""Young Master Qin, this is Ju Wu County in Yue Country, not the Emperor of Zhou's Luo Yi. This county has the final say.”
He was planning to use force.
Qin Yu's gaze becomes sharp. He has already put his hand on the sword at his waist. During the past half year of traveling around the Spring and Autumn Period, Qin Yu has really learned some sword techniques and self-defense methods. As long as this county magistrate dares to make a move, Qin Yu guarantees that he will stab a hole in him on the spot and then take Fan Li hostage to escape.
At this moment, Qin Yu had already changed from a gentle and elegant young master to a fierce and fierce hunter.
At this moment, the county magistrate's subordinates began to persuade him.
"Milord, it's not a big deal for us to lose Shi Yi Guang, but if we mess up the order and laws, then we'll be slapping ourselves in the face, and we'll lose the hearts of the people.”
"That's right, Milord. Young Master Qin has not broken the law. If we were to make a move against him, wouldn't we be unkind and unjust?”
Ge Dazhuang, the trusted aide of the county magistrate, whispered,""Milord, Young Master Qin is so generous, and he even came from under the feet of the emperor. He is definitely not an ordinary person. If we offend him casually, I'm afraid we will get ourselves burned.”
The county magistrate immediately cowered after hearing these words.
This is also the result of Qin Yu buying people's hearts. After these officers received Qin Yu's golden dates, they naturally spoke up for him.
"Indeed, we cannot break the laws in this county. Young Master Qin, I was too agitated just now, please don't take offense.”County Magistrate Xun Gan gave himself a way out.
Qin Yu was very satisfied. Otherwise, merchants would like to bribe officials. Sometimes, it could indeed achieve miraculous results.
Just now, those few officers had indeed helped Qin Yu resolve a crisis.
Fan Li walked to the magistrate's side and criticized,""Boor! He's so brave!"
Then he says to Qin Yu: "Young master Qin, you have spent a lot of money for the gauze washing girl. You are truly a hero of the present age. In the future, you will definitely become a good story. I admire you. If I have offended you in any way, I hope that you will not take offense."”
Qin Yu nodded and said,"No fighting, no friendship. It can be considered fate."”
"What a good saying. Young Master Qin, this Fan will definitely befriend you. If Young Master Qin went to Kuaiji, the capital of the State of Yue, Fan Li would definitely host a banquet to entertain him.”Fan Li said respectfully.
After saying that, Fan Li and the Magistrate of Gouwu County left with a group of officials.
Qin Yu lets out a sigh of relief. He does not really treat Fan Li as a friend. He is just saying it.
The Unjust War of Spring and Autumn!
In this era of mutual deception, friendship was worthless.
"Yi Guang, I'm hungry, quickly get something to eat.”
Qin Yu looked at Xi Shi who was standing foolishly on the spot. He patted her shoulder and said.
Shi Yiguang reacted and suddenly knelt on the ground. He bowed his head and said,""Yiguang thanks Young Master for saving his life."
Xi Shi was very smart. She knew that if Fan Li asked her to serve Fu Chai, she would be reduced to a political tool and would not end well.
Qin Yu helps Xi Shi up and says: "Yi Guang, I just made the decision to let you be my maid. I wonder if you are willing?"”
Before Xi Shi could answer, her parents immediately answered,""I'm willing, of course I'm willing. To be able to be Young Master Qin's maid is this girl's greatest blessing.”
As their parents spoke, they were still glancing at the wooden bucket that contained 1,000 Gold Coins from the corner of their eyes. This amount of money was probably more than they could spend in a few lifetimes!
Qin Yu does not pay attention to these two old people. Instead, he asks Xi Shi: "Yi Guang, I lack someone to take care of me, but I won't force you. You just need to tell me the truth. Whether you're willing or not, I'll give you this thousand gold.”
"Yi Guang is naturally willing to serve Young Master.”Xi Shi answered Qin Yu with a resolute and decisive tone. Then, her face turned red and she said with a somewhat unconfident tone."It's just that Yi Guang is a country girl with shallow knowledge and clumsy hands. I'm worried that I won't be able to serve Young Master well. If Young Master doesn't mind, then Yi Guang will be Young Master's maid.”
By the end of her sentence, her voice was already as soft as a mosquito's hum, and her face was filled with the shyness of a young girl.
There was a response from the Beauty System.
"Great Master, congratulations on raising Xi Shi's intimacy to 20, and your strategy to 20%. You have also raised the buff Shang Hao to level 2. You can choose a production technique as a reward.”
" Please choose one of the following production techniques."
" Option 1: Waterwheel irrigation technique.
[Option 2: The ceramic firing process.]
Option 3: Silk weaving."
PS: Here to correct the "county magistrate". The county system existed in the middle of the Spring and Autumn Period, but the title of county magistrate was only established during the Warring States Period. There was no such title in the Spring and Autumn Period. The author was not rigorous, but it was better not to change it first. The author did not find out how the local governor of Yue State should be called QAQ during that period.
