Chapter 207 Running
When Wu Da walked out of the two-deli pawnshop, the silver in his package had disappeared and was replaced by 500 taels of bright gold. Of course, this was not because Wuda could "point silver into gold", but because he pawned the silver money after Guihualou.
Wu Da understands that in fact, Guihualou is not worth the money, not to mention that he is not dead, but has a period of half a year. If he does not take money to redeem the house and land deeds within half a year, Guihualou can be owned by the pawnshop. Being able to be this silver is entirely because of your status and the reason that you just fabricated to crush people to death. Both buyers and sellers believe that no matter how rich they are, officials can't be provoked. Spending money can only be to up on officials, and money is difficult to bring direct power. This matter is a rare opportunity to get up with officials in the eyes of the two profits pawnshop, and they will naturally not let it go. What's more, if what Wu Da just said is true, then Guihualou will definitely be redeemed. If so, there is no loss at all for the pawnshop, and it can earn some meager interest. That's why the sick guy promised this price.
Of course, Wu Da also repeatedly explained to him that this matter must be kept secret. Wu Song's promotion is of great importance. If there is any fork in the pawnshop, Wu Song's anger, but this small pawnshop can't afford to be offended. Naturally, the sick man nodded and bowed.
It is also a helpless move to replace it with gold. Five hundred taels of Wuda can still carry it, but if it becomes 5,000 taels, it will not be done by relying on the body anyway. However, it takes great care to go to the capital on this way, so Wuda asked the sick man to exchange the money connected to his body for gold, so that the action will fall. It is also convenient. Of course, Wu Da did not forget that he left dozens of pieces of silver on his body, which was enough for his travel expenses.
(It was mentioned earlier that the currency conversion relationship in ancient China was about 1 taels of gold = 10 taels of silver. Although the specific proportion of each era will vary, in general, it is roughly maintained at this level.)
Wu Da carried the money and walked around the corner of the wall before the number of pedestrians on the West Street increased. He walked around a few times and came to Zishi Street. In fact, he didn't want to come here, but Wu Da always had a hunch that he might not come back in this life after leaving Yanggu this time. Of course, Wu Da doesn't think it is an ominous omen. After becoming famous in the capital, there is really no need to come to Yanggu again. Here, he has no relatives. Wu Song is just an official here. However, according to Wu Song's ability, I'm afraid it won't take long for him to really be promoted. What's more, it's only a matter of time before Wu Song knows this, and it's difficult for him to recognize his brother again.
The sky and the earth are big, where is home?! In fact, before Wu Song came, he and Pan Jinlian lived a good life. Although there were always some people around to coveted Pan Jinlian's beauty, the people in Yanggu County were generally very kind. What's more, when they secretly praised Pan Jinlian's beauty and was heard by Wu Da, Wu Da had no sense of superiority and happiness except anger? After all, Pan Jinlian is his daughter-in-law, the honey he picks every night (it seems that in the world of novels, can't eat canned peaches).
Wu Da stood on Zishi Street and looked in front of his house for a long time, but still didn't go up. He doesn't want to leave any traces at home. Wu Song will definitely investigate it, which is not good. What's more, what can I see when I go up? This is a family business jointly bought with Pan Jinlian. Now she has disappeared, and she is about to leave. This house is about to be empty now. If everything can be explained, Wu Da will definitely leave a letter and tell Wu Song that the house will be given to him.
Opposite Wu's is Grandma Wang's teahouse. This teahouse has been closed since Wang Po's death. Although Wang Po is a woman, she is famous** in Yanggu. She couldn't fight in person, so she tried her best to hook up with girls. She could get some money from it herself, and sometimes she didn't even do silver work, just to be refreshed. I heard that Ximen Qing was her biggest customer.
Once for a while, Wu Da was very worried that Pan Jinlian would also become the target of Wang's mother-in-law. For this reason, he once ordered Pan Jinlian not to have any contact with Wang's mother-in-law, but in the rumors, it seemed that Pan Jinlian and Wang's mother-in-law still got along well. However, from the later development, Grandma Wang did not regard Pan Jinlian as that kind of lowly woman. From this perspective, my daughter-in-law is still good. For many things, I blamed her.
I think of Mrs. Wang, who is shrewd and good at words. The black one can be said to be white, and the dead can also be said to be alive. She is also a relative of my martial arts family. Such a person will also die in one move without a sound, and his body is reduced to a tool driven by others. It's really a great sad thing. An acquaintance can't help her have a funeral, which is indeed against human feelings. When I develop, when I meet the Qingming Dynasty, I will definitely burn two pieces of paper for her to comfort her spirit in heaven.
Wu Da stood on the purple stone street and looked back and forth, which gave birth to a lot of feelings, which had never been felt before, even when he left his real hometown Qinghe. At that time, Wu Da was full of fantasies about a new life and the anxiety of leaving quickly. It seems that Yanggu is the place to give Wu Da a sense of belonging.
Stop it. There is no home everywhere. This kind of thinking is not the work of a man. Wu Da gently rubbed the corners of his eyes and continued south along Zishi Street. He was ready to turn east in front of him and leave the county seat from the east.
The way out of the city has also been carefully thought out by Wuhan University. In fact, it can come out from either side. However, the west exit is a dock, and now the river is frozen, and it is meaningless to go out from the west. In the north, after passing through the county government, people near the county government know more about themselves, and it's not good to recognize them all of a sudden. And in the south... Wu Da killed people there. He subconsciously wanted to avoid it. Wu Da was afraid that he would be stuck to something unclean when he walked there. If you go to the east, the best route is from East Street on Cross Street, but in that case, you will pass Wu Song's home. So there was nothing we could do. Wu Da decided to go far and get out of the city from the east.
Just as Wu Da was about to walk down Zishi Street, a familiar figure appeared in his eyes. A young man with a basket stood in the cold wind with a pear in his hand.
Wu Da is not surprised that people still sell pears in winter. In fact, this is the reason why Wu Da learned after he was rich. Many smart fruit vendors will store some fruits in the cellar in summer and wait until winter to sell them. In this way, they can sell them. A good price. The pears sold by this kind of pear seller are generally very delicate, and they often carry fruit knives with them. If the other party is willing to pay, they will use their hands to beat off the pear skin.
I don't know if there is such a pear seller in Beijing. Wu Da's mouth is full of the smell of pear juice. Of course, Wu Da also immediately remembered why he was familiar with this person. It was really difficult to find the second one under the world. In summer, Pan Jinlian opened the window and accidentally dropped the fork stick from the second floor, which hit the head of the goods. As a result, she was entangled by this man for a long time and wanted money. In the end, it seems that Wu Song helped solve this matter. Unexpectedly, after a few months, this person still did not grow up and was still selling pears. Unlike my old man, he has changed from selling pancakes to the owner of the osmanthus building and the president of the Chamber of Commerce...
Wu Da thought of this and felt a twitch. Because he immediately thought that from the moment he became Guihua Tower, these identities no longer belonged to him, and he is now just a fugitive after killing and arson.
For several months, the pear seller was still making a living. With the arrival of winter, the price of a pear has increased seven or eight times. Wuda, on the other hand, has changed from a good-business pancake stall owner to a desperate maniac. In these months, who is the one who should really smile?
The pear seller also noticed Wu Da and greeted Wu Da with his obscene smile. Wu Da also nodded his head gently to him and put it on ordinary times. Wu Da would definitely not do this, but today, in the memory of Pan Jinlian, a person who had been smashed by Pan Jinlian suddenly appeared. Although he was disgusting, he looked a little warm.
Wu Da wanted to buy a pear to eat, but he thought it was too dangerous. In fact, it was a mistake to say hello to the pear seller. He knew himself. I have never bought his pear before. If I buy it suddenly today, it will leave a deep impression on him. If Wu Song starts to investigate today's situation after a period of time... It doesn't seem to matter.
It was extremely normal for me to pass by. A few months later, I had already arrived in the capital. Even if the little man still remembered that he had seen me today, he could not prove anything. All he could see was a dwarf who hurried by with a package on his back, and there was no direction on my face. Of course, pears will not be bought, but this unnecessary worry is indeed a little redundant.
I'm not a wanted criminal. I can only say that I absconded, not relatively safe. Thinking of this, Wu Da no longer looked at the pear seller, but walked down the Purple Stone Street and turned east. Normally, when he just got up, he had already left Yanggu County.
Wu Da knew that it was definitely not only the little man selling pears who saw himself on the way. These people's words could form a specific path, so they must not rush directly to the capital. They must first walk in different directions and then take a circle, so that it will be safe.
