After Her Divorce, She Escaped With A Strong Man To Farm Chapter 39

Chapter 39: Giving Him a Taste of His Own Medicine (2)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Three or four men who looked like servants came over and said to the villagers of Peach Blossom Cove rudely, “Our master is a high scholar. You’re making a fortune by selling your body. Stop it now or we’ll report you to the authorities.”

“We’re all victims of the disaster now, and you’re still acting like an old master? Get lost!”

Ji Shui Sheng was simply too lazy to talk nonsense with him. He sent him flying with a kick and continued to sell his meat.

Seeing that he had failed to intimidate this group of poor people and that his own people had been beaten up, the high scholar felt that he had lost face and sent out the thugs he had raised to arrest them.

He was very smart and knew that they were not Ji Shui Sheng’s match, so he went to join forces with the other rich people and sent people to s.n.a.t.c.h the meat.

After a round of persuasion, he persuaded more than a dozen households, and each household sent out four or five strong men, which added up to dozens of people.

With so many people, this high scholar master also dared to come over and bare his fangs and brandish his claws. He brought his people over to s.n.a.t.c.h the meat grandly, but his mouth was claiming to get rid of evil for the people.

“Today, I, High Scholar Ding, will get rid of this evil for everyone. Everyone, come with me to demand an explanation.”

The other disaster victims were all craving for meat. Since someone took the lead, of course they would join in on the fun. With this, there were more than a hundred people.

High Scholar Ding put on airs and said to Ji Shui Sheng, “Hand over the meat, and the Old Master will spare you on account of your first mistake. Otherwise, we’ll send you to the authorities.”

“Since you’re so selfless, take out the food you brought for disaster relief. You usually eat until your stomach is full of oil, so take some out to do good.”

Ji Shui Sheng sneered and pointed at the food on High Scholar Ding’s carriage as he shouted to the refugees, “Today, as long as High Scholar Ding can take out all the food for disaster relief, I’ll give everyone this meat for free.”

Su Qing looked at Ji Shui Sheng with admiration. This move was brilliant, giving him a taste of his own medicine.

He looked like a boorish man, but he was brave and astute.

High Scholar Ding didn’t think that a wild man would say such words. Of course, he wasn’t willing to give his food to those poor people.

Seeing that those refugees were looking at him for help, High Scholar Ding flew into a rage out of humiliation and shouted at Ji Shui Sheng, “Don’t stir up trouble here. The grain in the carriage is the Old Master’s private property, unlike yours. ”

“How is it different? It’s all personal property. If you want to eat meat, go up the mountain and get it yourself. We almost lost our lives in order to catch this giant python. Exotic delicacies are priceless. This is giant python meat, not ordinary snake meat. Ginseng can be divided into ordinary, 100-year-old, and 1000-year-old. This is a giant python that has been cultivated for 1000 years. It’s as valuable as 1000-year-old ginseng. If you can’t afford it, then get out of here. Don’t pretend to be a master. Who can prove that you’re a high scholar? I think you’re a fake.”

Could Ji Shui Sheng let him hold him back? His loud voice suppressed the noise of the whole scene. He was tall and fierce. Just by standing there, he had an oppressive force that intimidated the whole scene. The men of Peach Blossom Cove all raised their weapons and looked at them covetously. Seeing that they were not to be trifled with, the disaster victims who followed the jeers retreated.

s.n.a.t.c.hing snake meat was not as easy as s.n.a.t.c.hing food. At this time, no one cared about being a high scholar or not. They couldn’t f*cking survive.

Those retreating disaster victims took advantage of the time when High Scholar Ding led his people to surround Peach Blossom Cove to s.n.a.t.c.h the food in his carriage.

“Master, they are s.n.a.t.c.hing our food.”

Ding Juren’s wife and concubines cried for help, and seeing their food stolen by the disaster victims, he quickly brought people back to protect them, but they were still a step too late. He could only watch as the disaster victims took the food and property on his carriage, even one of the carriages.

When the other rich people saw that High Scholar Ding’s food had been stolen, they hurriedly called their people back to protect his belongings. In an instant, High Scholar Ding’s group of over a hundred people had been reduced to only a dozen or so people from their own families.

After High Scholar Ding was robbed, he stomped his feet and cursed, “Unruly people! You’re all unruly people! I’ll report this to the county Magistrate and have him chop off your heads! Hurry up and return the grain!”

No one paid attention to him. It was dark, and he couldn’t see clearly who was s.n.a.t.c.hing the food. Even if he could see clearly, it was useless. There were so many disaster victims. Where would you find them if you went into the crowd?

No one dared to come over to buy the snake meat in such a mess, so Ji Shui Sheng let Qiu Yunzi share it with everyone.

They had just sold more than ten portions and made forty-five taels of silver. In addition to the twenty-eight taels of silver they had earned from the previous sales, Peach Blossom Cove had already made seventy-three taels of silver.

With this silver, even if the price of grain rose to ten taels of silver per pound, it could be bought for Qi Zhen to eat on the road.

(Search information: 1 stone (bones)=2 market dollars, 1 market dollar =13.5 Jin)

Seeing that the people of Peach Blossom Cove had finished eating all the snake meat, those who wanted to buy it regretted it. It was a thousand-year-old giant python meat, and they might only be able to eat it once in their lives. What a pity, what a pity!

Ji Shui Sheng’s lie was quite effective. Everyone thought that the giant python was a thousand-year-old giant python.

After they were full, the sky was completely dark. The number of people fleeing now was no less than when they had just come out. At this time, there were hundreds and thousands of disaster victims gathered around. These disaster victims dared to rob even a single person, not to mention ordinary people.

Ji Shui Sheng strictly guarded the people and ordered Li Daniu to light up a fire in front, back, left, and right of the team. The women and children slept in the innermost circle, the old people slept in the outer circle, and the strong men of peach blossom Cove slept in the outermost circle. In addition, he sent more people to patrol and ensure their safety.

Su Qing brought Ji Xiao Ying to sleep on the bedding laid out beside the cart, while Qiu Yue pulled her mother to sleep beside Ji Xiao Ying.

Qiu Yue knew that Su Qing was powerful. If any disaster victims were to run over the men outside, Su Qing would be able to get up and beat them up when she heard the sound.

Li Shuang ‘er, her mother, and her sister-in-law also slept close to Su Qing. Li Shuang’ er admired Su Qing, and she felt safe by her side. Su Qing didn’t dislike Li Shuang ‘er, so she let her be.

It was as if the women of Peach Blossom Cove had made an agreement. They all wanted to sleep close to Su Qing, but seeing that Li Shuang ‘er and Qiu Yue had taken up the s.p.a.ce, they could only sleep outside of them. As they moved back and forth, Su Qing and Ji Xiao Ying were in the middle, which was also the safest position.

Su Qing seized the time to rest. She was exhausted after fighting the Python and traveling for so long during the day. Cooking the Python meat had raised her cooking skill to eight squares. She only needed two more squares to level up.

Su Qing looked forward to the early arrival of the next day so that she could stir-fry the musk deer and eat it. She realized that as long as she made new dishes, she could level up quickly.

The night was a little cold. Ji Xiao Ying felt cold and leaned towards Su Qing. Su Qing’s eyes shot open. She was still not used to people getting close to her. She turned to look at Ji Xiao Ying and saw that she was sleeping like a baby. Her head was resting on her shoulder and her hands were wrapped around her arms.

Su Qing did not have the heart to push Ji Xiao Ying away, so she stiffly allowed her to hug him.

“Shui Sheng, go and sleep. I’ll patrol,” Qiu Yongkang’s voice rang out.

Su Qing turned to look in the direction of their conversation and saw that it was on their west side. The light from the bonfire danced and shone on Ji Shui Sheng’s face, causing his expression to be uncertain.
