CH 61.1

Zhang Fangyuan raised the corner of his mouth, leaned against the door frame, let Xu He carefully look at the silver in the bag and ensure that the irregular silver ingots were heavy and tough, and even more unbelievable was to check if they were all real.

"Naturally, I earned it by running back and forth in the past few days."

Xu He looked at the complacent man, no wonder this man asked for so much money in the first place, and it was because of this.

He couldn't hide the joy in his heart, but he didn't dare to be too happy. He had to cross-examine clearly: "This is not a hundred copper coins, but a hundred taels of silver, how could it be earned in a few days. Don't..."

Zhang Fangyuan straightened his back: "Don't worry, it's definitely not a crooked way."

He stretched out his hand and pulled Xu He to him: "A while ago, I met a passerby who sold fragrance dew. He thought he had good products but didn't know how to sell it. He sold it to me, a bottle of fragrance dew was sold to me at the price of twenty two copper coins, and I sold it to flower house, an huakui bought a five taels for one bottle."

Xu He was dumbfounded, and was surprised that people in flower house could waste money like this, they would spend more than a hundred taels of silver to buy fragrance dew. That was a hundred taels, not a hundred copper coins.

"No wonder I always smell a faint fragrance on your body these days, it got on your body when you sold the fragrance dew." At that time, he thought it was from going upstairs, but he didn't mention it.

Hearing the words, Zhang Fangyuan raised his hand and smelled it. These days, he came and went with fragrance dew. The fragrance dew scent on his body was not strong, it was light that he himself couldn’t even smell it: "Is it fragrant?"

He couldn't smell it himself, so he leaned to the tip of Xu He's nose, and was slapped by him.

"There are still a few bottles left at home. If you like it, we can keep it for yourself."

"It's such a valuable thing, if a farmer like us who live in the village use something like this it’s like a pheasant gets into the phoenix flock." Xu He said: "Since the price is so high, why didn't you sell all of them, and still keep some for us."

"It's useful." Zhang Fangyuan said with a smile, "I originally wanted to keep it for you. Since you don't want to use it, you should sell it.

"It's up to you since you are the master." Xu He felt relieved when he figured out the source of the money. In fact, he was a person who loved money, but he was not in a hurry to be happy, and his mind was very clear: "Even so, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Zhang Fangyuan narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the man with a dangerous expression, as if he was running away behind his wife’s back to make money: "I didn't know that I would be able to sell it for that much money before, and I wanted to tell you when things stabilized. Originally, I planned to take you to get the money tomorrow, but things changed, and I can get the money today."

Xu He nodded slightly.

He asked again: "Did you sell it to the top card of Yunliang Pavilion?"

"Yes, she contacts a lot of people everyday and knows many rich and noble people. She is also a woman, and she has more ways to sell things than me."

Xu He nodded again: "Are you so familiar with her?"

Zhang Fangyuan laughed: "Are you unhappy?"

Xu He denied it flatly: " No, I just heard from Ao Er that the top card is very beautiful. I only know few people, and the most beautiful person I have ever met is the second sister. "

“That brat!, he dared to say that he didn't talk nonsense to you." Zhang Fangyuan said: "I used to work in that place, and I must know the top card. I have some friendship with her, but nothing else."

"Then what does she look like?"

Zhang Fangyuan didn't feel troubled by Xu He's question, and he replied with great interest: "The girls and ge’ers in flower house all wear heavy makeup, and they put it on all day long. Like a rooster with flower, I have never looked at them carefully, and for me they all look similar."

Xu He was skeptical about his words, but he felt that it was not impossible. Sometimes Zhang Fangyuan was very shrewd, but sometimes his mental state like a shit.

In fact, he just didn't understand why there were so many good-looking people out there, why he was chosen in the end.

"Because no matter how many all kinds of people I met before, none of them made me want to make them happy."

Zhang Fangyuan leaned in front of Xu He's ears and said a few provocative words, which made the ear tips of the coaxing people felt hot and burned. He was about to take a bite with his mouth.

"Ayuan, what did you call He ge’er to say, it's time to eat." Zhang Shiyue's voice sounded outside the door, and Xu He slipped away in a hurry.

"Hey, I'll be there soon."

Zhang Shiyue breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words, and she was afraid that the two of them would quarrel when she saw the man's aggressiveness just now.

Hearing the sound of footsteps going away, Zhang Fangyuan wanted to post it again, but was pushed away by Xu He.

Zhang Fangyuan yelled: "Cross the river and demolish the bridge, unload the mill and kill the donkey!"

[过河拆桥 guò hé chāi qiáo: lit. to destroy the bridge after crossing the river (idiom); fig. to abandon one's benefactor upon achieving one's goal]

[卸磨杀驴 xiè mò shā lǘ lit. to kill the donkey when the grinding is done (idiom); to get rid of sb once he has ceased to be useful]

Xu He just buried his head while tying the bag contained the silvers, ignoring the silly big man who was unreasonable. He was going to carry it home later.

"I won't give you any money if you do things without telling me in the future."
