Chapter 75 Reasons for Making Things Difficult for People
Jiang Lili quickly pulled Zhang Dun, who was still playing at the gate of Zhang's courtyard, into the house. "This He Jing must have come here to coincide with Lin Ye's departure!"
Wen frowned: "What should I do?"
"He Jing is just a mad dog that bites everyone he sees!"
At this time, the door outside the yard was knocked "bang bang", and everyone in the house suddenly became nervous.
Zhang Dun hid under the table in fear and curled up into a small ball.
The person outside the door shouted loudly, "Sister-in-law Zhang, your sister Wenxi went to the town to buy embroidery and came back. She happened to run into He Jing and was stopped by He Jing!"
"Ah, Vinci!"
Wen stood up and hurried to run out of the house, but Jiang Lili stopped her and said, "Sister Wen, don't go. If you go, He Jing might become even more rampant and catch you as well. Then Brother Zhang Xin will be even more constrained."
"Let me go and see what's going on now!"
"Sister, you have to be careful. Last time, he said that if he couldn't pay off his debts, he would sell all the young girls in the village to brothels."
Zhang Dun worriedly grabbed the corner of Jiang Lili's clothes.
Jiang Lili touched his head and shook her head: "It's okay, my sister is a fugitive, he has no right to touch me."
Jiang Lili and Master Liao went to the village entrance. Many people had already gone there, and Village Chief Liu was leading people to argue with He Jing.
"Master He, we are hit by a locust plague and we really can't pay the rent. Can you give us a few days' grace?"
He Jing said in a domineering tone: "I don't care about these things. I care about the results."
“Why don’t you protect your crops?”
His men were holding Wen's sister Wenxi.
Wenxi was only fourteen years old, but she was so scared that she burst into tears.
He Jing grabbed her hair and said, "I heard that the Zhang family in your village is well-off, how come they can't pay the rent?"
Jiang Lili heard the voice before she saw the person. She heard He Jinghe's duck-like voice calling at the entrance of the village.
Village Chief Liu was really afraid that something might happen to Wen Xi: "Zhang Xin has gone to collect the money. Mr. He, please ask your people to release Wen Xi first. The girl is really scared."
Jiang Lili came closer and found that He Jing didn't look fierce at all. On the contrary, he was as thin as a monkey, with a hunched back, and holding a pair of nunchakus in his hands. He looked very childish, which reminded Jiang Lili of those spirited young men in their county who rode ghost lights to rock the streets every day.
He Jing's clothes and accessories are also very bright, with colorful styles, which are very aesthetically advanced when matched together. Coupled with his facial features that look like someone has stepped on him, it is a bit eye-catching.
At this time, the servant who followed He Jing reminded him: "Sir, don't forget that we have another important matter on this trip."
"Yes!" He Jing swung the nunchaku in his hand, and Village Chief Liu took several steps back.
He Jing: "It's not enough for Zhang Xinjia to just hand over the money. He messed up an important task I asked him to do. Where is he now?"
At this time, two more thugs brought Zhang Xin from the field over: "Boss, Zhang Xin is here!"
Zhang Xin saw his younger sister Wenxi trembling with fear and said anxiously, "He Jing, come to me if you have any problems! Don't embarrass the little girl!"
"Zhang Xin, aren't you quite capable? Then why didn't you complete the task I assigned to you?"
He Jing yelled, "My aunt's birthday party is still a month and a half away, what do you want me to do?!"
"Mr. He, the seeds you gave me really can't grow the colorful roses you mentioned."
Zhang Xin wanted to cry but had no tears: "Last night during the locust plague, the roses you asked me to plant were the ones I protected the most. But the more I looked at the flowers growing in the field, they didn't look like roses at all, but Lycoris!"
Jiang Lili listened to the conversation between the two and understood that He Jing gave Zhang Xin a bag of rose seeds and asked Zhang Xin to grow colorful roses so that he could present them to the head of the He family as a birthday gift.
Isn't this just plain making things difficult for people?
Not to mention that roses were extremely precious in the Great Sheng Dynasty and could only be mass-produced in a few northern regions. In addition, roses were extremely rare and were used as medicine, so only the royal family could use them as ornamental flowers.
Moreover, due to limited conditions, only a few colors can be cultivated, all of which are red, and are variants of roses or roses.
Jiang Lili's eyes rolled, and she suddenly thought of a way to solve the urgent problem.
She poked Zhang Xiaopang for a private chat.
【@江麗麗: Xiaopang, I need colorful roses urgently! If you see any nice flowers in the flower shop, get some! 】
【@张小胖: What a hurry! I'll go out right away! 】
However, within ten minutes, Xiaopang brought roses of several colors.
Jiang Lili was dumbfounded. How could Xiaopang move so fast? Did he ride a Hot Wheels?
[@张小胖: I was so busy celebrating the Spring Festival that I forgot that today is February 2th, Valentine's Day. When I went downstairs, the trash cans on the street were full of flowers thrown by others! ]
Jiang Lili remembered that before they traveled through time, it was winter vacation in the modern world, but it was autumn here.
It seemed that Zhang Xiaopang had become addicted to rummaging through the trash cans on the street, and battle reports kept coming in.
[@张小胖: Why did they even throw away the Swarovski crystals? I don’t understand today’s young couples. ]
【@张小胖: Damn! There is an unopened iPhone hidden in this flower. How can you throw it away?】
[@张小胖: Wow, a brand new Xiaotiancai call watch! I've wanted to buy this for a long time, but my dad doesn't let me wear it because he thinks it's embarrassing! ]
Jiang Lili:?
Who is so nice to give a Xiaotiancai phone watch as a gift on Valentine's Day? That's amazing!
【@张小胖: Sister Li, thank you! I gained a lot today! 】
【@江麗麗: Not bad, you have everything except a girlfriend. 】
【@张小胖: ...Sister Li, how can your hands with a temperature of 37 degrees be able to type such cold words? 】
With these roses in the basket, Jiang Lili also has bargaining chips with He Jing.
On this side, He Jing wanted to take action against Zhang Xin.
Zhang Xin was held down by the shoulders by two thugs beside He Jing. He unwillingly argued for himself: "There is something wrong with the seeds you gave me. I can't grow them no matter what I do."
"Bullshit, I'm such a great businessman, how could I be fooled into buying fake seeds?!"
He Jing hit Zhang Xin with a stick.
Zhang Xin groaned and held it in.
This scene made Jiang Lili anxious, because Zhang Xin was their first investment target in Lingnan!
If they get beaten stupidly, who will take care of that vast wasteland in the southwest?
"stop!"
Just when He Jing was about to strike with the second stick, Jiang Lili quickly shouted to stop.
"Who is teaching me how to do things?" He Jing looked over with his big eyes, and everyone's eyes turned to Jiang Lili who spoke.
Village Chief Liu quickly stood in front of Jiang Lili and said, "The exile team from the capital is staying in our village. This is just the prisoner's family member. Please don't make things difficult for her."
He Jing grinned grimly and signaled with his eyes to the servant beside him to push Village Chief Liu away.
He walked up to Jiang Lili and said, "How can a fugitive who is staying here for the night be so arrogant? Do you think I can't control you?"
Jiang Lili bowed and said, "Mr. He, you misunderstood. I have no ill intentions. It's just that punishing them now won't solve the problem."
"It has come to this. Zhang Xin messed up the birthday present I gave to my aunt, and the people from Tianshui Village failed to do what I asked them to do."
He Jing sneered and said, "If they can't solve the problem, I will solve them."
