Cultivation Starts From Planting Sweet Potatoes

Chapter 44: .Plum Blossom Pirates

For the next few days, Zhang He would go to various stores every day to exchange some copper coins, and occasionally sell one or two ginseng plants.

Under the circumstance that he pours the spiritual spring water every day, the ginseng breeds in the space very quickly, and he can't use so much, so it is most suitable to sell it for silver.

The income is higher than that of planting sweet potatoes, but sweet potatoes are food, and no matter how much they are, they can be sold.

However, ginseng is a medicinal material, and the demand is low, because it is relatively rare and expensive. If you plant too much, Dehua City will not be able to digest it, and it will not be easy to sell.

As for the elixir of five-leaf Peiyuancao, although the price is more expensive, he only intends to use it himself, and will not sell it.

After several days of accumulation, he has now saved more than 500 taels of silver.

He went to the bow and arrow shop to choose for a long time, and finally bought 30 wooden bows and 1,000 arrows, costing a total of 400 taels of silver.

The bows he bought were just ordinary, some of them cost dozens of taels of silver.

For the remaining 100 taels of silver, Zhang He chose a hundred-steel sword in a sword shop.

The sword he had obtained from the Hall Master before was cut into a knife-like shape during the battle with the eldest son, and it has long since been unusable.

This time, I spent all my money, and there are still some copper coins in the space that have not been exchanged, and some dried sweet potatoes have not yet been sold.

Zhang He found Su Fa, sold all the 3,000 catties of dried sweet potatoes stored in the space to him, and received another 60 taels of silver.

He didn't plan to keep the 60 taels of silver. In this disaster year, only food is the most precious thing.

The price of food in Dehua City has already started to rise, almost every few days, and the residents of the city are stocking up on food at home.

Zhang He also went to a few rice shops to buy grain. It took only a day to buy ten kilograms of corn. It seemed that this way would not work. He took a rest tonight and went home tomorrow.

At this time, I was sitting in a restaurant drinking boring wine in a bad mood. The wine here is as light as water, and it costs twenty cents per pot.

He really wanted to ask the store owner if he forgot to add wine to the water?

However, when he saw several men sitting next to him drinking with gusto and blowing their mouths, he still held back.

The food of the Zhou Dynasty was precious, and the wine made from the food was naturally a luxury, and it was rare for ordinary people to drink it once.

"Good wine!"

A man took a sip and couldn't help but praised loudly.

"Have you heard? That plum blossom thief committed the crime again the night before yesterday."

"Ah! Is it the fifth time this month?"

"Isn't it? The plum blossom thief didn't know where it came out of nowhere. He has to steal every few days."

"I don't know who this Plum Blossom Thief is, but the method is really good. The city lord's mansion has sent several more sergeants to patrol the city, but they have not been able to catch him."

"Fortunately, this plum blossom thief only stole from the rich in the city, and never attacked ordinary people."

"Nonsense, as far as the accumulation in your family is concerned, the plum blossom thieves don't even look down on it."

"I heard……"

Zhang He listened to a few men talking eloquently, but he didn't expect that there would also be robbers in this world.

But in general, the so-called robbers are just in the name of robbing the rich and helping the poor to fill their own pockets.

Stealing from the poor has nothing to do with it, so it is better to steal from the rich and gain a good reputation along the way.

Zhang He ate something casually and left the restaurant. It was already dark outside, and there were not many pedestrians on the street.

When he walked to an alley, a gust of breeze blew past, and a figure flashed in front of him, and he ran through the wall into a nearby compound.

"Wouldn't it be so coincidental to meet a thief?"

Zhang He sighed inwardly, remembering that he heard the legend about the Plum Blossom Pirates in the restaurant just now, so he quietly followed, wanting to find out.

He followed over the fence and found that it was a very large house, with pavilions, terraces, rockeries, flowers, etc. in it, much more luxurious than his Zhangjiazhuang.

At this time, it was just dark, and many houses in the courtyard were still lit, and occasionally there were servants and maids walking around.

I don't know if this thief is a daring artist, so he started to work at this point. He was very diligent.

When Zhang He came in, he could no longer find the shadow of the thief, so he could only sneak quietly among the shadows.

The level of "Following the Wind and Shadowless Steps" that he practiced has already surpassed that of the young master in white. His figure is elegant and silent, and he is not worried about being discovered.

He walked around the house and found no trace of the figure just now, but he did find the family's granary.

Looking at a warehouse full of grain, it was true, "My family has a warehouse full of grain, so let the poor be hungry."

With so much grain, it’s not just waiting for the price to rise before selling it, hoping to make a profit from it.

Zhang He felt that since he ran into it, he should teach these rich and unkind people a lesson.

Immediately sneaked into the granary and put the bags of grain into the space.

However, he still has a bit of conscience, and he left a portion for the other party, enough for the family to eat and drink until next year, it is impossible to make money from it.

After doing all this, he thought about it, since the plum blossom thief likes to rob the rich, he should help him spread his reputation.

Immediately, he used a knife to carve a pattern of a plum blossom in the warehouse.

The reason why this plum blossom thief has such a title is because every time he commits a crime, he will draw a plum blossom on the scene.

Zhang He has always been indifferent to fame and fortune, and doesn't like false fame, so it would be good to give this fame to the plum blossom thief.

After stealing the food, Zhang He quietly sneaked out of the compound without disturbing anyone, nor did he see the shadow of the previous person again.

After Zhang He stole the house, he was a little unfinished. Anyway, he will go back tomorrow. It is still early, so it is better to do good things to the end.

Then he went out of control and stole eight wealthy families one after another.

When he went to every house, he directly found the granary and moved most of them away.

It's not that he doesn't like silver money, but the granary has a big goal and is very easy to find. Money is not so easy to find, and the guards are tighter, so it's not easy to get it.

In the same way, every house he stole has left a plum blossom sign. It is estimated that after tonight, the plum blossom thief will definitely become famous and become a famous figure in Dehua City.

At this time, while it was still early, Zhang He was rushing to work to prepare his last business.

When sneaking all the way to the house, he heard someone talking inside. He felt that the voice was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

"My son, this time is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Taking advantage of these few months, you must be well prepared, and you must not make mistakes."

"Father, our elder sister was favored by General Gu Liang, and helped our family get so many fortunes.

Why do you still care so much about Heishui Town, which is dozens of miles away? "

Hearing this, Zhang He froze in his heart, but he didn't expect it to be related to his Black Water Town.

And when it comes to General Gu Liang, he has already remembered who the owner of the voice is. It is the shopkeeper Bao, the owner of Bao's House in the east of the city.

"Alas! Our family has a shallow foundation and a weak foundation. It was only because of your sister's favor with General Gu Liang that we got these fortunes.

But have you ever thought about what would happen if one day your sister could not be favored?

There are so many powerful people in the city, can we still keep this family business?

Only Heishui Town is far away and unattractive. If you manage it well, it will be the foundation for my Bao family to inherit in the future. "

Zhang He listened under the eaves~www.wuxiahere.com~ It seems that his town of Blackwater has definitely become the possession of the father and son, and they are already discussing how to inherit the foundation.

Thankfully, he thought that the shopkeeper who was smiling should be a kind person.

"My child has been taught, don't worry, Daddy, I will definitely take Heishui Town in my hands when I go."

"Well, in fact, I don't have any worries about taking Heishui Town. General Gu Liang will personally lead his troops to level Heishui Town and kill him with blood.

You just need to follow and pick up a ready-made Blackwater Town. "

Shopkeeper Bao was full of confidence in winning Heishui Town and did not have the slightest doubt.

"Dad, I don't know something about my son. Why didn't we let my sister push General Guliang to destroy Heishui Town earlier? Let's take it early." The young voice was still a little puzzled.

"You're still too young, it's useless to occupy it early. Now there are refugees everywhere, and the Black Water Town is full of swindlers. Wanjia has been in business for many years and can't keep it. Let's go now and have good fruit to eat. ?

Besides, the guards of Dehua City are more important now, and General Gu Liang can't walk away, so we can't cause trouble to your sister.

When the homeless people disperse in the spring of next year, we will take over the spring ploughing without any delay. "

The father and son were negotiating to seize Heishui Town, but they never expected that the master would listen to everything under the eaves.

Zhang He really wanted to rush in right now and kill the father and son, but think about it, don't panic, without the Bao family, there will definitely be other families watching, it's better to keep this knowledge.

After he emptied the Baojia warehouse, he set a fire when he left.

The few homes he stole from before will leave a line for others, but this is not necessary for the Bao family.
