001 silver tael
When Fang Zheng opened his eyes again, it was already noon.
The sunlight passed through the paper-paste windows, passing through the slowly flying dust, and microworms fell on the head of the bed, shining on his face.
Under the halo, the fine velvet on the skin is clearly visible.
There was a sound of talking outside the house, sometimes mixed with loud singing and laughter and scolding between men, gradually moving away.
This is a large bunk bed, with several wooden beds placed side by side, and the room is filled with a strong smell of ‘manly sweat’.
At this time, no one else in the room could still lie down, but he was the only one.
The bamboo mat on the bed is a bit old, and the waist is even more uncomfortable, with some burrs raised, and even ripped blood stains.
The quilt also had a odor, so I don’t know what was filled in the quilt.
Fang Zheng lay on the bed motionless, looking at the irregular rafters above his head in a daze, completely forgetting the passage of time.
Until now, he was unwilling to believe that he had traveled through time.
And he traveled to a strange world with ghosts, strong men, and mages.
What can you do!
Open your eyes, it is not the familiar dormitory in your memory, but the strange and real rafter roof.
"Crack..."
The door was pushed open and someone limped over.
"woke up."
Xu Dayou looked at Fang Zheng with his eyes open and threw a cloth bag over.
"This is the reward that Lord Wang gave you. It is considered to be a complete friendship that shared the hardships last night. There are a total of ten taels of silver. I exchanged you two taels of silver for copper coins."
"Crazy..."
The crisp sound of collision sounded in my ears, which also made Fang Zheng withdraw his wandering mind.
"Ten taels of silver?"
He held up from the bed and slowly picked up the cloth bag beside him.
The bag is heavy and very heavy.
Untie the tether and pull the bag open, two strings of yellow square-hole copper coins first came into view.
The copper coin is not big, just one centimeter in diameter, with patterns engraved on one side and four characters on the other side.
It seems to be some Tongbao.
Fang Zheng raised it, and estimated that this string of copper coins should weigh seven or eight pounds.
Two strings are just over ten pounds, no wonder they are so heavy.
In addition to these two strings of copper coins, there is also a small cloth bag underneath.
He reached out and picked it up, and could feel the hard objects inside.
When I opened it, it turned out to be a few dollars.
Except for one ingot that should be five taels of ingot, the others are irregular scattered silver.
Not as good-looking as in costume TV.
At first glance, it looks like a few small silver bumps, with a dirty, oily and inconspicuous surface.
This is the first time Fang Zheng has seen these things, so he can't help but stretch out his hand and rub it back and forth.
The five-liang ingot silver also has words engraved on it, and I can't recognize it completely, so I can only guess the year name and time.
Xu Dayou limped down next to him with a wooden stick.
"One tael of silver costs one thousand and two hundred coins. I counted twice. You can count it again. You can go to the front to weigh the silver."
Fang Zheng stopped the movements in his hand and slowly shook his head: "No need."
"Oh!"
Xu Dayou grinned and said, "You are lucky, and you will get a silver reward. No wonder some people say that if you survive the disaster, you will have good fortune."
"It's a pity that Brother Chu and the others..."
Speaking of this, he stopped talking and looked out the door: "Let's go, where is the Zhang family's manager waiting outside."
"Manager Zhang?"
Fang Zheng's eyes flashed with a daze, as if he had remembered something.
"You didn't forget it, did you?"
Xu Dayou looked over and said, "At the banquet yesterday, you said you didn't have a place to go, so you asked Manager Zhang to find a place to live."
"I remembered it."
Fang Zheng suddenly realized.
However, the evil ghost was dealt with last night and returned to the county town from the cemetery. In order to welcome the new magistrate Wang, the people here specially held a banquet.
As one of the few people who survived at that time, although they were outsiders, Founder was also invited to attend the banquet.
At the banquet at the deskmate, Xu Dayou and the manager from the Zhang family were there.
However, at that time, Fang Zheng only wanted to get himself drunk and have a good sleep, and most of the things he said were not remembered.
Looking back now, it seems that this is indeed true.
"I'll get up now!"
He quickly lifted the quilt, and his movements became slightly more intense, and the sequelae of drunkenness were revealed.
“Um…”
A muffled groan sounded, and he felt a splitting headache, and the blood vessels on his forehead jumped, even if he hugged his head with both hands, it would be useless.
"You drank too much yesterday."
Xu Dayou frowned: "I warned you not to drink so much at that time."
Fang Zheng smiled bitterly, rubbed his temples and sat up slowly beside the bed, and put on his shoes and socks with some difficulty.
"I originally thought the degree was not high, so I drank a few more drinks, who would have thought..."
"degree?"
Xu Dayou stood up with a cane: "What nonsense you are talking about? It seems that you are still early to sober up."
"But don't worry, Manager Zhang brought the donkey cart, and I can't stand it like this."
He looked down at his right leg, his face getting darker.
"Brother Xu."
Fang Zheng also knew the common name of the people here, so he immediately asked, "What do you say about your legs?"
"If the Qi and blood are damaged, you can only replenish it slowly."
Xu Dayou's face was stiff and he walked out of the door with a stick: "As for whether he can make up for it... only God knows!"
Fang Zheng opened his mouth, but didn't know how to persuade him.
At that moment, he could only sigh, followed the other party, and walked out of this house where he was in unknown places.
The scorching sun outside makes people squint their eyes.
This is a wide courtyard, with the earthen walls on both sides being more than one person tall, and some farm tools, brooms and other things are placed in disorderly against the wall.
There are several stacks of straw in the courtyard, and several large round stockpiles, full of rice.
Fangzheng saw this in his hometown when he was a child. The older generation called it "现 (chuan)".
"Young Master Fang, I'm awake."
A husky voice interrupted his scrutiny.
Looking into the voice, a middle-aged man in a sky-blue sweatshirt was waving to greet the two of them near the narrow door.
This man is thin, dark-faced, and a whip rope wrapped around his waist. It was Manager Zhang who drank with him yesterday.
"We need to hurry up. After the 19th hour, I will rush back to the southern medicinal materials shop to check in the account."
Si time.
That is, from 9:00 to 11:00.
After Si, it is noon, from 11:00 to 1:00 pm, and it is also time to have lunch.
Fang Zheng's eyes flashed, and he silently converted the time here with the time he used to use in his mind.
But the next moment he shook his head again.
But he suddenly remembered that Xu Dayou said at the dinner table yesterday that they only had two meals a day.
Even Lord Wang from the capital is the same.
Three meals a day, probably only the princes and ministers are so luxurious!
Sure enough, the more I think and see, the more I realize that I am now and the time in my memory is so different.
"Come here!"
He sighed softly, then raised his energy, and helped Xu Dayou, who was a little inconvenient to walk, walk towards the narrow door.
Now that things have come, I can only come to this, so I can rest assured.
Step out in one step.
Chapter completed!
