Traveling to ancient times? Break off the relationship first! Then divorce! Make a lot of money
Chapter 63 Spending money like water
People tend to talk nonsense when they drink too much.
Uncle Hu spoke excitedly about what happened that day.
It was inevitable that he would exaggerate when he was drunk, and Yuan Junyao blushed when she heard it.
According to Grandpa Hu's narration, she became a peerless martial arts master with a body as fast as lightning and a strike as powerful as thunder. The bandits were scared to death when they saw her. With just a few moves, she beat the five of them to a pulp.
Yuan Junyao covered her face, feeling too embarrassed to see anyone. It was no exaggeration to say that she was this powerful during her peak period.
But she recalled that when she was teaching those five people a lesson, her shoes flew off. How did this have to do with being a martial arts master?
Hu Changgeng and the two yamen runners knew that there was some exaggeration in this, because they had heard Yuan Junyao's story, so they just listened helplessly.
But the village head didn't know this. He widened his eyes in disbelief, looking as if he had seen a ghost.
He asked uncertainly, "Old Master, are you sure you are talking about Jun Yao?"
Uncle Hu patted his chest and assured, "I never tell lies. Of course, I'm talking about Jun Yao. Her reward of fifty taels and three acres of good farmland is because she captured five bandits."
The village head slowly turned his eyes and his gaze fell on Yuan Junyao.
Yuan Junyao smiled awkwardly and explained, "Grandpa Lizheng, Uncle Hu is drunk. You just need to listen."
"I'm not drunk. Who said I was? I can still drink!"
Uncle Hu was very stubborn and insisted that he was perfectly sober!
He was worried that Yuan Junyao couldn't drink, but it turned out that he was not as good as her.
And Yuan Junyao drank more than anyone else present.
Seeing that Uncle Hu was about to pour more wine, Hu Changgeng hurriedly tried to dissuade him.
"Dad, stop drinking. You can't drink anymore. You'll get drunk if you drink any more!"
"I'm not drunk. I'm happy today. Why can't I drink? Hehehe, I, I actually don't want Jun Yao to be my goddaughter."
Hu Changgeng's scalp suddenly went numb. He could already guess what his father was going to say, but it was too late for him to stop him.
"I had my eyes on Jun Yao before, and I chose her to be my daughter-in-law. Unfortunately, she was already promised to someone else. Fortunately, they are divorced now, hehehe..."
"Dad, stop talking nonsense." Hu Changgeng's face turned red.
Uncle Hu glared at him and pushed him away.
Yuan Junyao also felt uncomfortable and immediately stood up and said, "I'm going to pay the bill. I can't drink anymore. Anyway, we're almost done eating, so we should leave."
She had never been in love in her previous life. Although she was divorced in this life, she was still a virgin, so of course she would be shy!
Hu Changgeng is quite handsome, so I definitely have a good impression of him, but it's just a good impression.
She is a soul from the modern era, and her thoughts and values are completely different from those of the ancient people.
So she and Hu Changgeng are not suitable.
Hu Changgeng is always serious and must be an extremely old-fashioned person.
As Yuan Junyao was paying the bill, she was thinking that perhaps she would live out her life alone.
She is unwilling to compromise, and is not willing to change herself because of others.
If you can’t find someone who’s your soul mate in modern times, forget it in ancient times.
In this ancient thought and education, and in this feudal society, the men brought up are all the same.
This is the legendary male chauvinism and the superiority of men over women.
She couldn't stand all this, and she couldn't stand being confined to the back room to take care of her husband and children.
She might be more suited to wandering, being alone, and having a place to rest when she’s tired.
After paying the bill, Hu Changgeng carried the drunk Uncle Hu on his back, Zhao Ziyang and Su Wenbin supported the village head, and the group left Xiangmanlou.
Hu Changgeng ordered, "You two, escort the village head back to Dahuai Village."
Zhao Ziyang and Su Wenbin naturally took the order and left.
Just as Yuan Junyao was about to say goodbye, Hu Changgeng said, "I'm carrying my father back to the county magistrate's office."
The two of them had been talking normally when they met before, but after Uncle Hu pointed out their relationship status, they both felt awkward.
Yuan Junyao smiled and said, "I'll go back to my parents' home first. After a few days, I'll build a house to live in and plant some crops."
Hu Changgeng nodded. "Okay, then. I'll send someone to Yuanjia Village tomorrow to get you a piece of land to build a house on. I'll also select three acres of good farmland for you, and I'll also send your dowry back."
In each village, the allocated fertile land is distributed according to the number of people in each household. The excess will belong to the public, and most of it will be rented out to wealthy people.
"Thank you, Master Hu." Yuan Junyao thanked him and then bowed and said goodbye, "I'll be leaving now."
"Well, be careful along the way."
Hu Changgeng originally wanted to send someone to send her back, but then he thought that since her martial arts skills were so good, it might not be necessary.
Yuan Junyao walked away slowly. She could feel the people behind her staring at her. Although she felt uncomfortable, she tried her best to pretend nothing had happened.
After finally leaving the sight, she breathed a sigh of relief.
This Mr. Hu is really good at matching people up at random.
We were just friends originally, but this has become extremely awkward.
"Let's go buy a carriage first!"
Yuan Junyao didn't want to walk, so it would be convenient to have a carriage in the future.
After asking around, I finally found a place that sold horses and carriages.
After asking, I learned that a horse costs between twenty and sixty taels, and including the carriage, it would cost at least fifty or sixty taels.
It’s so expensive!
It seems that she has to make money quickly. Building a house will cost a lot of money. If she wants to build a house with blue bricks and tiles, it will cost hundreds of taels.
She had previously earned forty taels from selling the Dragon Herb, fifty taels from the bounty, and fifty taels from selling ginseng, for a total of one hundred and forty taels.
But I spent more than ten taels of money on buying things.
My total net worth now is over one hundred and twenty taels, not counting small change, copper coins and the like.
But she still had a ginseng and a Ganoderma lucidum that she hadn't sold.
She bought a carriage. The horses were top quality and cost forty taels. The carriage and the horses cost sixty taels in total.
After buying the carriage, his wallet was empty, with only more than sixty taels left.
Yuan Junyao simply sold the remaining fifty-year-old ginseng and twenty-year-old Ganoderma lucidum.
The ginseng from the previous forty years sold for fifty taels, so the ginseng from these fifty years must be at least sixty taels!
Ganoderma lucidum is not as good as ginseng, but I think it would be good if I could sell it for twenty taels.
The result was similar to her expectation. The ginseng was sold for 65 taels and the Ganoderma lucidum was sold for 20 taels. The older the ginseng, the more valuable it was.
She still had more than 140 taels of silver on her, and she didn't count the scattered copper coins.
Since they were divorced now, she should buy some necessary things. So she bought some rice, flour, sugar, oil, salt, etc.
In the end, it cost another ten or twenty taels.
After spending all this, I only had 120 taels of cash left.
Because she didn't know how to drive a carriage, she kept learning on the way back and walked very slowly.
There was a large bag of rice piled on the carriage, at least fifty kilograms, as well as half a bag of flour, two kilograms of sugar, ten kilograms of oil, and so on.
We also bought several batches of cloth to make new clothes for them.
