Xiao Chen glanced at Xu Erzhu, frowned slightly, and was about to speak when his stomach started to growl.

He had just been fighting with the demons and had consumed too much energy. Although he had taken the Xiaohuan Dan, he had not eaten anything and was now extremely hungry.

"Boy, how poor are you? Can't you even afford to eat? Your stomach is growling!"

The disdain in Xu Erzhu's eyes grew stronger.

He took it for granted that Xiao Chen couldn't afford to eat because he was too poor. After all, this situation was very common in their village.

The demons were rampant, the people were living in misery, and 90% of the people did not have enough food to eat.

In their village, only warriors like him, who can farm and hunt, can earn five taels of silver a year and barely have enough to eat a full meal!

"I'll go get you some food!"

Jasmine didn't mind at all. She turned around and went to the kitchen outside. In a blink of an eye, she brought out half a bowl of rice and a small plate of pickles and placed them in front of Xiao Chen. She smiled sweetly and said, "Here, eat quickly!"

Xiao Chen took a look at the food and was slightly stunned.

This food is too bad!

Not to mention the Zhenbei Palace, even at Liu Sanji's house, he ate much better than this!

He was born into a noble family, but he had no idea that the world had become so bad!

Xu Erzhu was also stunned, and his face instantly turned ugly.

Jasmine actually gave Xiao Chen fine food. How could this pretty boy deserve this!"

Fine grains are very precious in their village, and even he can only eat them a few times a year!

"Miss Jasmine, is there anyone selling wine and meat in your village?"

Xiao Chen looked at the rice and pickles in front of him and had no appetite at all.

He still had more than a thousand taels of gold in his space ring, which was definitely enough for the meal. After the meal, he planned to leave some for Jasmine to repay him for saving his life!

"Wine and meat? Yes, there is a tavern in the village, but it's very expensive. Few people in the village can afford it. I can't afford it!"

Jasmine whispered.

Xu Erzhu couldn't stand it any longer and shouted, "Boy, a loser like you still wants to enjoy wine and meat? Do you deserve it?"

"If you're a man, get out of Jasmine's house right now. Her family is already struggling enough and can't afford to support a loser like you!"

This is not nonsense. In today's era of widespread famine, food is equal to life!

Jasmine is the only one at home. She usually relies on picking wild vegetables and mending clothes for others to earn some hard-earned money and just enough to fill her stomach!

If we raise one more person at home, we will definitely starve to death!

However, what happened the next moment directly shattered Xu Erzhu's three views!

Xiao Chen took out a gold ingot and placed it directly on the table. "This should be enough, right?"

Xu Erzhu was stunned when he saw the gold in front of him!

gold?

A full ten taels of gold?

Is this fucking real?

He had never even seen a complete ingot of silver in his life, and this pretty boy actually took out ten taels of gold?

We are all human beings, why is there such a big difference between us?

Jasmine was also stunned!

He looked at Xiao Chen in disbelief, his beautiful big eyes full of shock!

Could it be that she saved a rich young man?

But looking at Xiao Chen's appearance and temperament, he does look like a handsome and noble young man!

Even though he was covered in blood, it couldn't hide his noble aura!

"I don't believe it, it must be fake!"

Xu Erzhu couldn't accept this reality, so he picked up the gold on the table and took a bite. Then, when he saw obvious teeth marks on the gold ingot, he looked ashen and fell to the ground!

Really!

This gold is actually real!

One ingot of gold is equal to one hundred taels of silver, and one hundred taels of silver is equal to his income for twenty years!

This means that this pretty boy can take out half his life's income with just a touch!

He originally thought that this pretty boy was just handsome, but he didn't expect that he had such financial resources!

In this situation, if the other party competes with him for Jasmine, what will he do?

There is no way I can do it!

Seeing Jasmine looking at Xiao Chen in shock, with stars almost popping out of her eyes, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes!

No!

He must get rid of this pretty boy!

When it comes to force, he is very confident that he can easily deal with Xiao Chen, who is as thin as a dog!

Unless, Xiao Chen is a warrior, but warriors are too rare and it is impossible for them to appear in a shabby place like theirs. At least he hasn't seen one in all these years!

"Miss Jasmine, could you please go buy some wine and food?"

Xiao Chen was really hungry. Although he had just slept for several hours, the weak period had passed and his strength had recovered!

But man is iron and food is steel. If you don’t eat for a meal, you will be very hungry!

Now he just wants to eat a big meal to fill his stomach!

"Okay, okay! I'll go now! What do you like to eat?"

"Ten kilograms of beef, ten kilograms of mutton, two roast chickens, and five kilograms of rice!"

Xiao Chen thought for a moment and said that ever since he awakened his Martial God Body, his appetite had become astonishingly large.

Jasmine was stunned and looked at Xiao Chen in surprise.

She didn't expect that Xiao Chen, who looked gentle and refined, actually had such a big appetite!

But she didn't say much, just nodded, took the gold ingot from Xu Erzhu with trembling hands, and walked straight out into the depths of the village.

She walked a long way but her heart still didn't calm down!

Looking at the gold ingot in her hand, she suddenly felt like she was dreaming!

This is a whole gold ingot!

With so many people in the village, I guess no one has ever seen such a huge fortune!

How many eggs can she buy and how many bowls of rice can she eat?

How many lives can this save?

In troubled times, money is equal to life!

……

the other side.

After Jasmine left.

Xu Erzhu closed the door with a sinister look on his face, then looked at Xiao Chen and said ferociously, "Boy, you shouldn't have come here! If you hadn't come, you might have had a chance to survive, but now, you can't!"

Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, "You want to kill me?"

"That's right!"

"We knew each other before? Have I ever offended you?"

Xu Erzhu shook his head, a ferocious glint in his eyes. "I've never seen you before. Today is the first time we meet! I'm killing you because you touched someone you shouldn't have!"

"I've loved Jasmine for seven years, but this bitch has always ignored me. And she treated you so well after just meeting you once! I won't accept this! So you must die!"

Xiao Chen nodded, "I see! You're truly overbearing! But if you kill me, will Jasmine like you?"

Xu Erzhu sneered, "I'll kill you, steal your money, and then I'll force Jasmine to be with me for the rest of her life. Then I can fulfill my wish and toy with this bitch every day! But first, I have to let you die!"

A hint of sneer played on Xiao Chen's lips. "Grievance? What grievance do I have? Anyway, I won't be the one dying! Considering that you just carried me on your back, I wanted to let you go. I didn't expect you to actually want to attack Jasmine. Then I can't let you go!"

Xu Erzhu looked at the confidence on Xiao Chen's face and couldn't help but sneer. "Just relying on a loser like you, you think you can kill me? I've killed wild wolves in the mountains alone! I can easily beat ten pretty boys like you!"
