Chapter 106 Disliked Jewelry

"I think this looks like a Sanba Gai. There are more of them in the hands of self-defense teams."

"is it?"

Village Chief Liu was puzzled, "Look at those bullets, which one is used together with it?"

"This...this...village chief, I don't know either. I have never used these foreign gadgets. They look similar, and I can't tell them apart."

"Forget it, Wen Hao, it's normal for people in the village to not recognize these things before. Next time your nephew comes over, just ask him to teach the young men in the village how to use them. I'll put this pile of things where you are first."

The clan elder made pertinent suggestions, and Liu Wenhao stopped checking the firearms. Later, he asked his son to call Liu Jianshan. He had to tell him quietly and let him keep an eye on the news outside.

Since the weapons will not be sorted out for a while, let's divide the belongings to avoid problems if it takes too long. He and several clan elders began to discuss in a low voice, and the result was reached soon.

"Pa…papa…"

"Quiet, everyone, please be quiet and listen to what I have to say."

Village Chief Liu slapped the table with his hand, and the slapping sound brought the noisy scene under control, and the crowd gradually became quiet.

"First point, the clan elders and I have decided that those who have contributed to the annihilation of the bandits this time will each receive four more silver coins, because they took the risk to bring back these things. Do you have any objections?"

The villagers shook their heads hastily, saying that they should be given more. They all knew that it was good luck that there were no casualties this time, otherwise they don't know what would have happened.

"Okay, as long as you don't object, you must have a conscience and don't hesitate to give what is due."

Village Chief Liu nodded happily, satisfied that the villagers had not become dizzy because of petty profits and still maintained their proper demeanor.

"The little girl from the Li family also has a lot of credit for this. It was she who pointed us in the direction of the gangsters and let us go straight to our destination without disturbing them by searching blindly in the woods. So after discussion, we decided to give it to her as well. Reward five oceans, what do you mean?"

What?award?

"No, no...hiss, it hurts."

Li Yixing quickly wanted to get up and refuse, but was hit on the waist by Liu Langzhong beside him. He pressed his waist and looked at the old man in confusion, why was he hitting him.

"Be honest and just watch."

Dr. Liu pulled him to his side and stared at him threateningly with sharp eyes.

Knowing that he is new to the family, he is embarrassed and not short of money, but when living in the village, you cannot be too honest and you must fight for what you deserve, otherwise everyone will want to bully you from all aspects.

The little girl from the Li family, who is she?

Most of the men were stunned for a moment. They knew that new residents had moved into the village, and they would also talk about the Li family, but they didn't pay much attention to the Li family's child. A little girl with yellow hair was not there for them to chat and gossip. In terms of scope, waiting ten or eight years is about the same.

The villagers began to whisper among themselves and share news. Finally, everyone understood the reason and agreed with the reward.

"Village Chief, we listen to you and have no objection."

They really didn't have any objections to rewarding a little girl, and she only had five oceans per person. It was a trivial matter, but they didn't take it seriously. Pointing out the direction was indeed a big help.

"Okay, if you don't have any objections, let's get started. The rewards will be taken first. Come up and get them after you line up."

One hundred people and the hesitant Li Yixing stepped forward one by one and took away their rewards, which made the others extremely envious, but they were just envious.

If the same thing happened again, they would not dare to say that they wanted to participate in the battle together.

Guns don't have eyes. If they are hit, they won't even cry.

After a final calculation, everyone in the village, regardless of gender, old or young, could get 7 oceans and four yuan in local coupons.

The village chief and the clan elders sat down on the stools, took out the village's household registration and started calling people from the beginning. The crowd suddenly watched in silence as the people who had their turn stepped forward to take away their portions, their eyes red.

Especially for a family with a large family, they took away nearly 100 yuan and more than [-] banknotes in one breath. Listening to the jingling sound of the money in the bag, I felt sour in my heart.

A beautiful little courtyard can't be used up even for a new daughter-in-law, it's so enviable.

An hour later, all the villagers' families had received their money, and they were happily complimenting each other and talking about how the money would be used later.

"There are still more than 600 yuan in banknotes and more than 100 silver dollars left here. We have decided to keep them as the common property of the village and use them to buy common things, such as next year's seeds."

The village chief stood up again to explain, trying to make everyone understand what he meant.

"As for the remaining gold and silver jewelry, food and clothing, etc., we have also made a rough conversion. Anyone in need can come and sign up. If there are too many people, we will draw lots. Everyone depends on their luck!"

"Yeah, I want a set of cotton-padded clothes. Village chief, mark it down for me."

"I want a jacket, a wolfskin jacket. Write it down for me."

Some people reacted quickly and immediately rushed to the front, surrounding the clan elders who were recording. Others also ran to the surrounding crowd, looking for the wife of the family, who knew the needs of the family better.

"Daughter-in-law, come on, come on, come on, our family is missing something, think about it quickly."

"Daughter-in-law, cotton-padded clothes, cotton trousers, cotton shoes, and jackets. Which one do you think we should change? We should try our luck with both."

"Baby, let's change something else...can we give you a gold chain and silver earrings?"

"Exchange it for whatever you want. It's not suitable for eating or use. It's nothing but good-looking. You're not allowed to change it."

The noisy and chaotic scene continued until most of the things were replaced and the crowd began to disperse one after another.

The floor and tables where all kinds of things were originally stacked were vacated, and besides guns and ammunition, all that was left behind were heavy gold and silver jewelry.

A few old men started to have headaches when they looked at these jewelry. These things didn't mean much to them country people. They were worried about losing their hearts when they wore them. It cost a lot of money to work hard, and they couldn't exchange them for much at the county pawn shop. Money will be kept at a very low price, which is simply troublesome.

Several clan elders looked at Li Manping, who was watching the excitement nearby, and suddenly had an idea. After looking at each other, they pushed the village chief and motioned for him to come forward.

Village Chief Liu was pushed out by them vigorously. He once again decided to abdicate early and make way for others. They would come to him for any nonsense. It was too difficult for him.

"Yixing, do you want to change your family's jewelry? These are so beautiful. I'll make them cheaper for you."

Li Yixing looked at these old and damaged gold and silver jewelry and shook his head. They were too ugly for him to look down on.

His jewelry is well protected, and only if it is bright and beautiful will it be valuable to keep.

"Yixing, there is a girl in your family. You must not prepare any dowry. It seems that these are a little bit buried. You can go and melt them down and give them a new marriage. A girl must be pampered. This kind of thing is indispensable."

Village Chief Liu persuaded him earnestly and wanted him to exchange all the remaining gold items, as long as it was more cost-effective than pawn them.

Li Manping had followed them like everyone else since they arrived at Bazi. She watched the whole scene from the periphery. Although she couldn't hear clearly what they were saying at first, she could tell what they were doing from their movements.

She watched the villagers take their share with great joy, watched them fight for various objects without giving in, and finally watched everyone go home with bright smiles on their faces. She also felt happy.

Seeing her father being stopped by the village chief from talking and shaking his head from time to time, she couldn't help but walked over to listen to the scene, and the result was...

Is gold jewelry so unpopular these days?
