Chapter 51 Looking for trouble (fifth update)
"Neuropathy!"
Converse cursed and left Zhao Guang. Not only did he not get the answer he wanted, but he felt panicked in his heart.
"Why!"
He sighed and felt that it was better to give up dealing with Chen Xue for the time being. After all, relying on yourself alone was still not enough, and others could not be relied on at all.
If you don’t have help, don’t try to die.
After Converse left, Zhao Guang found an opportunity and ran to Chen Xue to report. Chen Xue didn't care, but Zhao Guang's behavior was still worthy of praise.
After giving Zhao Guang a few pieces of rabbit meat, he sent him away with tears of gratitude, and then began to divide the meat.
Four rabbits, give one to Xu Tian. After all, he has helped me a lot, and he does not ask for anything in return.
However, Xu Tian refused, saying that he was the one who caused trouble for the Chen family this time. Although he won, he was still afraid. If he lost, he would never forgive himself in his life.
He also said that the last time Captain Sun came to trouble the Chen family, he didn't show up in time and he felt guilty.
This time I took the Chen family hunting because I wanted to apologize, so I thought of making amends. Who knows the outcome...
However, Mr. Chen Dang didn't care that Chen Xue was already there. After several delays, Mr. Chen pretended to be angry, and Xu Tian left with the rabbit.
After that, there were three left, one was kept in the space, and the other two were slaughtered. One was shared by Chen Xue and others, and the other was shared by the Chen family's servants.
Neither Chen Xue nor Master Chen was harsh on the servants. Although the servants of the Chen family had never been hungry, it had been several days since the last time they ate fish.
This servant is not like Chen Xue and others who can run a small stove.
So, Chen Xue and others still have to feed meat from time to time to supplement protein, otherwise they will not be able to persist in Nanman at all.
These servants have a solid background when they came to Nanman to develop. With their help, it would be easier to develop in Nanman.
These servants are all tested and loyal.
Chen Xue is naturally not stingy when it comes to his own people.
While several people were eating braised rabbit meat with relish, several figures suddenly broke in. It was Captain Sun's confidant, Yamen Qian.
Seeing the menacing look he brought with him, the servants quickly put down their bowls and chopsticks and hurriedly notified Chen Xue and others.
When Chen Xue and his family came down, they quickly stood in front of them to protect them.
“Master Qian is here, I don’t know what you are doing.” Mr. Chen came up to greet them. Although he knew that they might have bad intentions, he could only greet them with a smile. He could not avoid any conflict.
"I heard that you caught a lot of rabbits?" Qian Yamen said and looked around. Although he didn't see rabbits, he smelled the smell of meat and swallowed his saliva.
Mr. Chen frowned when he heard this. How could he not understand what they meant? He wanted the rabbit they had shot.
To be honest, if a rabbit can send them away and not cause trouble to them, it will not be a loss. I am afraid that they will become a lion.
Seeing Mr. Chen and others frowning, they did not speak. Yamen Qian's face was very ugly. In the past, when he said this, others would quickly understand his hint and send the rabbit over.
But now, he doesn't think Master Chen can't understand such a simple hint. After all, he used to be the Minister of Household Affairs. How could a fool become that?
So, he felt that the Chen family just didn't want to give the rabbit to them. Thinking of this, he was a little angry.
If the captain hadn't said, don't make too big a fuss and try to use gentle methods, he would have robbed it.
He snorted coldly, "We will pay you one tael of silver and sell us the rabbits you kill!"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone in the Chen family changed, and the faces of the Chen family's subordinates were even more angry. As Chen family's subordinates, they and the Chen family have both prosperity and loss.
Qian Yamen, this is simply an open robbery!
How could they not be angry? This was the prey that their girl worked so hard to catch. It cost only one tael of silver. It was simply an insult.
Even though Mr. Chen has a good temper, he wants to curse others.
“Sorry, you are late, we have already eaten the rabbit!”
Chen Xue snorted coldly, she would not spoil them. How could she give them a discount on the rabbit she had worked so hard to catch? If they paid dozens of taels, instead of one tael of silver, it would be like sending a beggar away.
She knew that it would be unwise to confront these government officials head-on, so it was better to use their strength to fight.
“Go and get those people!”
"Really?" Yamen Qian didn't care when he saw the servants leaving, and sneered, "I know you killed four rabbits, but don't say you have eaten all four?"
"That's really unfortunate." Chen Xue shrugged, "We have one rabbit each, only the tail is left. If you don't mind, I can sell it to you for a tael of silver."
hehe!
Rabbit tail?
There is no meat, what can we eat!
To pay back a tael of silver, do you think we are a fool and take advantage of us?
“Go and look for it!”
Yian Qian waved his hand and asked his men to search the carriage. Since the Chen family was so shameless, don't blame him for being rude.
“What are you doing!”
The servants of the Chen family immediately stopped them, and Mr. Chen even asked coldly, "Is Mr. Qian going to tear up the agreement reached on the cooperation?"
"So what if we tear it up?" Yamen Qian said with disdain, "What's the difference between you and me in this business? You are just prisoners, so what qualifications do you have to negotiate terms with us!"
“It’s a great mercy to let you make a carriage without shackles and shackles. Don’t be shameless.”
Chen Xue and others looked very ugly. I didn’t expect them to turn against each other so quickly, and just for a few rabbits?
Chen Xue took a step forward and snapped his fingers. Before Captain Sun agreed to the Chen family's request, his too loud voice appeared in everyone's ears.
“You said, if the news about Captain Sun’s betrayal gets out, who will dare to believe him in the future? Who will sell your medicinal materials? Who will dare to do business with you?”
“Are you threatening me?”
Yamen Qian's face showed murderous intent. Although he didn't know why the captain's words appeared in his ears out of thin air, he knew that it was Chen Xue's fault.
Seeing this, the servants of the Chen family quickly protected Chen Xue behind them.
“What was that just now?” Yamen Qian didn’t know how to describe it, so he pulled out the sword from his waist and said fiercely, “Hand over that trick just now.”
Whether it was to silence them or to use this magical method, Qian Yamen decided not to let them go.
Following Qian's actions, other government officials also drew their swords and surrounded the Chen family.
"What do you want to do?" Mr. Chen said angrily, "Do you think you can run away if you kill us? You should know my identity. If I die, His Majesty will definitely send someone to investigate. Then you will also run away. No."
He learned from Xu Tian that the exiled government officials could not kill prisoners unless absolutely necessary.
Especially for a "mastermind" like him, once he dies, the court will send someone to investigate the cause. Once it is discovered that the government servants did it secretly, they will not be able to escape.
“Hahaha!” Yamen Qian looked up to the sky and laughed. He glanced around. His men had already begun to drive away the prisoners around him. He looked at Mr. Chen.
"The worst case scenario is that you were eaten by wild beasts. Besides, the crime of escaping and attacking the government servants is enough for you to be executed."
