Republic of China: Guandong Ginseng King

Chapter 82 Thanks
"It's okay, it's okay, the beard is dead, Uncle Chen and Auntie are fine too."

Qu Shaoyang didn't expect that Chen Xiuyun would be so excited that she would throw herself into his arms, but he couldn't just push her away, so he could only clumsily pat Chen Xiuyun on the back to comfort her.

"I was in the cellar, and I heard the gunshots outside. It scared me to death."

Chen Xiuyun is just a girl who has not experienced the world. How can she not be scared when encountering such a thing?
At this moment, I was just seeking comfort and didn't think about anything else.

"Ahem, um, Xiuyun, Uncle Chen and Auntie are back too."

Chen Xiuyun was so scared that she lost her mind, but Qu Shaoyang didn't.

At this moment, Qu Shaoyang felt as if there was a pair of eyes, like sharp blades, that wanted to pierce through his back.

Without looking back, one could tell that Doctor Chen's face must be not looking good, so Qu Shaoyang coughed twice to remind Chen Xiuyun.

When Chen Xiuyun heard this, she realized that she was still holding Qu Shaoyang.

Her face turned red, and she quickly let go of his hand, tidied her hair and clothes, and looked behind Qu Shaoyang.

"Dad, Mom. Are you okay?"

Doctor Chen sighed, "It's okay. Thanks to Shaoyang for arriving in time. If it was a little later, who knows what those beards would do."

The Gao family was considered a wealthy family in the village, and the little white wolf was planning to start with the Gao family. Once the Gao family was dealt with, no one in the village would be left alive and no one would be able to escape.

By that time, I'm afraid that all the men, women, young and old in the village will be doomed.

Unexpectedly, Qu Shaoyang showed up and knocked down all the bearded men, thus saving the entire village.

"This group of people have no conscience and no rules. When they entered the village, they said they would not rob property or kill people."

Doctor Chen couldn't help but said angrily.

"Uncle, the leader of this gang is called Little White Wolf, and he is the worst kind of person.

You expect them to follow the rules, aren't you kidding me?" Qu Shaoyang laughed as he shook his head.

"This gang of people has been committing crimes along the Yalu River. Last year, they even robbed our raft. I don't know why they came to Daqinggou this time."

"I know about this; I heard it from their children.

Their boss was staying in Andong City for the winter. He had a fight with the young master of a wealthy family in Changdian over the top girl in Lichun Pavilion.

The young master of that family brought several thugs and beat the bearded man until his face was bruised and swollen.

The bearded shopkeeper was so angry that he took advantage of the opening of the spring festival and led his men to Changdian to cause trouble. "

Doctor Chen actually knew about this; he heard it from a kid when he was bandaging the injured bearded man.

"I didn't expect that it was a hard kiln, with high walls and a large courtyard, and a gun tower, and they hired a lot of gunners.

Not only did they fail to defeat this group of bandits, but they also suffered many casualties.

Finally, we had no choice but to evacuate, and we happened to pass by our village tonight."

Qu Shaoyang understood as soon as he heard it. The little white wolf had suffered a loss in Changdian and felt ashamed and uncomfortable.

Many of the people he brought with him were injured. When he first entered the village, he was afraid that the villagers would rise up in rebellion, so he said that as long as the answers were correct, he would not hurt anyone or steal money.

As a result, after eating and drinking their fill, these bastards changed their minds again and wanted to destroy the village.

"If what my uncle said is true, then the little white wolf will have no backup.

That would be the best, so that no more bandits come to take revenge." Qu Shaoyang felt a little relieved.

"Uncle, aunt, there shouldn't be anything to worry about here, I'll leave when it's daybreak.

My family is waiting for me. If I go back late, my master and his wife will be worried about me. Besides, the work at the water field is about to start."

Qu Shaoyang looked outside. The sky in the east was already turning pale, and it was not far from dawn.

He has been away for quite a while, so he needs to go back soon. "No, why are you in such a hurry? Stay for two more days.

If it weren't for your help tonight, the village would be in such a mess. I have to thank you very much."

Doctor Chen became anxious when he heard this. Qu Shaoyang had done a lot for the village, so how could he let him go like this?
"Uncle, what is there to thank you for?

I met them passing by, and even if I didn't attack them, they would not let me go. I did this for myself."

Qu Shaoyang laughed when he heard this. He got so many things from Yingkou, including guns and bullets. How could Hu Zi let him go?
Anything else would be fine, but that was a quick gun. Wouldn’t Hu Zi be furious when he saw it?

Therefore, this fight was inevitable, and he didn't do it just for the village, so it didn't matter whether he was thanked or not.

"No, I can't let you go like this, or the villagers will scold me to death.

Then you can stay for one more night and have a good rest."

Doctor Chen didn't care about that and insisted on keeping Qu Shaoyang for another night.

Qu Shaoyang had no choice but to agree.

Everyone was worried and nervous all night and didn't sleep a wink. Now that the problem was solved, no matter when, let's go back to the room and sleep.

That morning, for the first time ever, no one in the village got up early. It was not until the sun was high in the sky that smoke from the homes could be seen rising.

The same thing happened at the Chen family. Mrs. Li got up very late to cook.

Just after breakfast, Lao Gao brought some elders from the village and came to Chen's house with a lot of things, and they had to thank Qu Shaoyang.

Qu Shaoyang tried to refuse in every possible way, but finally had no choice but to accept the other party's thank-you gift.

"We buried the bodies of those bearded men, including the ones you dragged into the woods, last night.

I also went door to door and told everyone not to mention what happened last night, just pretend nothing happened."

Lao Gao is worthy of being the leader of the village. He is efficient and thorough in his work.

"There's just something small happening right now, and I need to ask Xiaoqu what she thinks.

Those beards have left 17 or 18 rattles, and there are about 20 horses. What should we do with these things?"

Lao Gao came to ask Qu Shaoyang for his opinion. After all, Hu Zi was killed by Qu Shaoyang, and those things could be considered Qu Shaoyang's trophies.

You must listen to Qu Shaoyang on how to deal with it.

"Uncle Gao, if you ask me about this, I can’t really tell you how to handle it.

How about this? Leave the muskets to the villagers, and give them to the young men in the families.

We can organize a musketeer team or something like that in the future, so that we won’t be panicked when we encounter any troubles.”

Qu Shaoyang already had a quick-firing gun, so those muskets were useless and cumbersome for him.

"As for those horses, I saw that they were all big and strong and could not be used in the farmyard.

Is there a market nearby? Otherwise, I can sell them at the market.

"After we get the money, each family should share some. Hu Zi was making a fuss yesterday and may have damaged a lot of things."

What can I say about those horses? If they were used to tie a four-horse cart, that would be great.

But if you want to tie up an ordinary two-horse carriage, the harness is not that high, so you can only use this horse to pull the harness.

If things go wrong, the horse power of the harness is strong, while the shaft horse power is weak, the two horses will not coordinate well, the strength will not be evenly applied, the harness will be difficult to pull, and the cart will be unstable.

As for plowing the fields and working, that goes without saying, this kind of horse is simply not suitable.

"Besides, these horses are too conspicuous to keep, and I'm afraid they will cause trouble. It's better to sell them."
