  Chapter 415 Brothers

Mother Wu also said: "That's right, before King Yong conscripted soldiers, our children were not even old enough, but now that the children are all grown up, they have to go out several times at once. We are really reluctant, please lend me some money Let's do it."

  Zhao frowned and said, "How much do you want to borrow?"

  Father Wu said, "Borrow one thousand taels of silver."

"One thousand taels?" Mrs. Zhao suddenly became unhappy, and said unceremoniously: "Ashan hates you, your family doesn't have a serious job now, and it's hard to earn ten taels of silver a year. What do you pay for?"

  Wu's father and Wu's mother choked suddenly.

  They never thought about paying back.

  One thousand taels of silver, even if they were sold, they would not be able to pay it back.

Zhou Lizheng said: "You guys should go back. Except for the one thousand taels I will keep for my two children in silver, the rest of the money, I will only give priority to lending to my relatives. Some of my relatives also want money. Those who are going to join the army, I can't lend money to you who have nothing to do with me, otherwise how do you let me face those relatives in the future?"

  Wu's father and Wu's mother thought about it for the same reason, and left dejectedly.

  Other people who still wanted to borrow money saw that Zhou Lizheng said so, and it was difficult to ask for money, and they all left.

  However, some people asked Zhou Zhenyang where he dug the ginseng, and after getting the specific location, they also went to dig it.

   For several days, there were many more people on the mountain.

Nangong Hong stayed at the end, and suddenly came to Zhou Lizheng's side, and said, "Uncle Lizheng, I heard before that a hundred-year-old ginseng can be sold for one thousand taels of silver. Your ginseng is five hundred years old. That's also worth five thousand taels of silver. You must have been tricked by Nangong Anshan, you should ask her for the money back, and sell it in Blue Cloud City by yourself, then you will have to sell it for an extra three thousand taels, three A thousand taels is enough for you to be rich for a lifetime."

  Haha, Zhou Lizheng will definitely return the money to Nangong Anshan after hearing what he said.

  Whether Nangong Anshan returns the ginseng or not, she will definitely hold grudges against Zhou Zhou's family.

   At that time, the Zhou family will no longer be valued by Nangong Anshan.

  The two families may even become enemies.

   At that time, he can recommend himself to Nangong Anshan, maybe he can also work in Nangong Anshan's house.

  Nangong Hong was thinking about Zhengmei, seeing that something was wrong with the atmosphere, he glanced at the Zhou family, and his heart skipped a beat, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Zhou Lizheng said with a sullen face: "Nangong Hong, don't think that we don't know what you're thinking, don't you just want our relationship with Ah Shan to deteriorate? Let me tell you, we don't follow your example. The schemer actually plotted against me Ah Shan is my family’s savior, even if she didn’t give me money just now, I would still give her ginseng. Next time you trick my family, I will drive you out of Liuye Village!”

   Nangong Hong said with a bitter look: "Zhou Lizheng, I am really doing it for you. That is three thousand taels of silver, not three taels, so you are willing?"

  Zhou Zhenyang said: "Are you sure that ginseng is worth five thousand taels? My father has seen ginseng, and Ashan did not give the wrong price. If you talk nonsense, we will kick you out."

  Nan Gonghong choked, seeing Zhou's family's eyes as if they wanted to kill him, so he ran away quickly.

  Zhou Zhenyang snorted, "If you want us to resent Ah Shan, go ahead and dream, the ginseng is given by Ah Shan, how could we be resentful!"

  Zhou Zhenyun said: "Brother, leave him alone, it's all right now, everyone in our family can stay."

Zhou Lizheng said: "It's all thanks to Ah Shan, I warn you three, work hard under Ah Shan's subordinates in the future, don't be lazy, and repay her well, otherwise with your abilities, you will only die when you go to the battlefield Son, look, only a few people who left before have come back, do you understand?"

  The three said at the same time: "Understood, Father."

  Zhou Lizheng gave his wife a silver note of one thousand taels, and planned to go out with the silver note of one thousand taels.

  Zhao said: "Father, where are you going?"

Zhou Lizheng said: "I can't ignore my brother's children, they all call me uncle, they are like frail scholars, if they go to the battlefield, they will have to die, I will send them money. "

   Mrs. Zhao didn't stop her when she heard the words, but said: "Go, you should go."

  Zhou Kuanji, the shopkeeper of Nangong Anshan Qingshufang, is also Zhou Lizheng's younger brother, and there are three sons over fifteen years old in his family.

   Zhou Kuanji went to the shop early in the morning, so he didn't know about Zhou Zhenyang's finding of ginseng.

  At this time, he thought that the three sons in the family would be two less at once, and he was a little distracted even at work.

  Zhou Lizheng knocked on the door of his brother's house.

   Mrs. Yu opened the door, saw Zhou Lizheng coming, and said with a sad face: "Brother, you are here, please come in."

   After she finished speaking, she turned her head and said, "Dalang, Erlang, Sanlang, your uncles have come to see you."

  The person who was called was about to go to the field, and when he saw Zhou Li coming, he hurriedly said, "Uncle."

  Zhou Lizheng came to the main room, sat down and asked: "Who will your family decide to join the army?"

Zhou Dalang said: "The second brother and I will go. We both have sons, but the third brother doesn't have any. So the family unanimously decided that the two of us will go. If we don't come back, the third brother will treat our son as his own son." Come and raise him, so we won’t have any regrets.”

   "How can this work? You two have been sick since you were young. Although you are in good health now, you are not suitable for war."

  Zhou Li was just finishing speaking, and took out a thousand taels of silver note from his pocket and handed it to them.

  Zhou Dalang took the bank note, saw the words on it, and said in shock, "Uncle? Where did you get so much money?"

  Uncle and the Nangong family have a good relationship. Could it be that the uncle borrowed it from the Nangong family for them?

  Yu Shi and the other two sons also stepped forward to have a look, and their faces were full of disbelief.

  Zhou Lizheng recounted what happened just now.

   Ginseng!

  Two thousand one hundred taels!

  The people present swallowed at the same time.

   It was not borrowed.

   Zhou Zhenyang's luck is also very good.

  Zhou Lizheng said: "I still have more than a thousand taels at home, this one is for you."

   Mrs. Yu was a little confused: "Brother, you also know the situation of our family. It is estimated that you will not be able to pay off the thousand taels of silver in this lifetime. Do you really want to lend it to us?"

Zhou Lizheng said: "Kuanji and I are blood brothers. We two don't say whether to borrow or not, you just accept it. If you have money in the future, you can pay it back. If you don't have money, forget it. Two, but the kids have jobs and my family can get by."

  The people present were immediately moved.

   Mrs. Yu glanced at her son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren, and said loudly: "You all kneel down to elder brother, he is your benefactor."
