C16 I Have Plenty of Money
Zhang Heng jumped onto a tall horse and went straight out of the hunting grounds, leaving behind a pile of dead bodies on the ground.
After running for half an hour, they finally left the hunting grounds. Zhang Heng tightened the reins and unhurriedly walked towards the street store where the Zhang family was located.
As soon as they entered the store, many of the employees looked at Zhang Heng in surprise. The manager, Zhang Gui, also stared at Zhang Heng with his mouth agape. After a long while, he stammered, "You, you. . . "
"Hehe, do you think I'm already dead? I'm sorry, with the assassin that Zhang Liufeng sent, it's not enough to kill me. "
Zhang Heng swaggered to sit on the sandalwood chair in the hall and shook his head. "Someone, bring me some good wild ginseng. . . "
The staff looked at each other. There was no movement for a long time. Zhang Heng impatiently urged them a few times. The staff looked at the shopkeeper Zhang Gui with pleading eyes.
"Young Family Head, wild mountain ginseng is very precious, and there is no market for it all year round. I'm afraid you won't be able to afford it. "
Zhang Gui sneered with a fake smile.
Because of Zhang Heng, his son jumped into the water and chopped firewood every day. He would never be able to make a name for himself. Zhang Gui had dreamed that Zhang Heng would die sooner, so how could he show him a good face?
"Cut the crap. I am a dignified Young Family Head, and I came from a shop to buy medicinal herbs, yet you still dare to reject me. Don't worry, I won't give you a single cent less!"
Zhang Heng scolded angrily.
"Someone, bring five wild mountain ginseng. "
Zhang Gui's face darkened. When he saw that Zhang Heng was determined to buy the wild ginseng, he didn't waste any more words. He waved his hand and ordered people to bring five boxes of wild ginseng.
Very quickly, the waiter placed five boxes of wild ginseng on the table in front of Zhang Heng.
Zhang Heng opened the box and picked up a wild ginseng. He placed it on the tip of his nose and sniffed. A rich fragrance entered his nose and nose, carrying a bit of soil fragrance that made his whole body feel comfortable.
"Young Family Head, these are all wild mountain ginseng that is twenty years old. Each one of them is no less than twenty taels of gold!"
Zhang Gui personally poured a cup of tea for Zhang Heng and said with a fake smile.
"I have absorbed a hundred year old ganoderma, which will give me experience points. I think this wild ginseng will also have experience points. Now that I have many enemies, I need to level up. Although twenty gold taels per stalk isn't cheap, I can still accept it. "
Zhang Heng muttered in his heart. He nodded slightly and put down the wild ginseng.
"What are you waiting for? Put away the wild ginseng. If it breaks the quality, it will be hard to sell it. "
Zhang Gui looked at Zhang Heng's expression and smiled disdainfully. He called the waiter to put away the wild ginseng.
"This is so funny. If you can't afford it, don't look at it. "
"That's right. A useless Young Family Head who is so poor still wants to buy wild ginseng!"
"This is really a disgrace to our Zhang family!"
Many of the shop assistants and staff members gathered in groups of three to five and secretly laughed.
Snap!
Zhang Heng slapped Zhang Gui's face.
Zhang Gui was caught off guard and fell to the ground. He covered half of his swollen face and stared at Zhang Heng in anger. "Young Family Head. What. . . What do you mean? Why did you hit me?"
The workers stepped forward and helped Zhang Gui up. Each and every one of them glared at Zhang Heng.
"Hmph, what right do I have to hit you?"
Zhang Heng clapped his hands and stood up slowly. "I want to buy wild mountain ginseng, but you didn't sell it to me. Do you have any respect for me, Young Family Head? I'm just slapping you lightly. If it wasn't for the fact that you are an elder of Zhang family, I would have stabbed you to death long ago!"
"You, you. . . You obviously can't afford it. You're deliberately making things difficult for me! I want to report this matter to the patriarch and heavily punish you. . . "
Zhang Gui was so angry that he gritted his teeth and used a very cliché sentence. In other words, if looks could kill, Zhang Heng would have died thousands of times by now.
"Hahaha, I can't afford it? Are you blind?"
Zhang Heng shook his head and sneered. He flipped his hand and took out a money bag and threw it on the table. "See for yourself if this gold is enough!"
"Hmm?"
Everyone, including Zhang Gui, looked at Zhang Heng in surprise, then turned to look at the money bag on the table.
Zhang Gui tremblingly walked forward and pulled open the money bag. When he saw the shining gold bars, he was immediately dumbfounded.
There were ten gold bars in total. One gold bar was ten taels of gold. It was exactly a hundred taels of gold!
"Let me ask you, is it enough?"
Zhang Heng rolled up his sleeves and walked towards Zhang Gui with a playful smile on his face. " If it was not enough. . . I still have. . . "
"Enough, enough. "
Zhang Gui hurriedly nodded in agreement, afraid that he would say something wrong. Zhang Heng was about to slap him to death.
"Come. . . Someone, wrap up the wild ginseng and give it to Young Family Head. "
Zhang Gui hurriedly ordered.
"Yes. "
The waiter hurriedly wrapped up the wild ginseng and respectfully delivered it to Zhang Heng.
"Here, this is your tip. "
Zhang Heng waved his hand and threw a handful of silver to the waiter.
The shop assistant was trembling with fear as he stood there, afraid that Zhang Heng would punish him. He did not expect Zhang Heng to give him a tip, so he quickly bowed and thanked him.
"Thank you, Young Family Head. . . "
The shop assistant bowed and thanked him. His tone was a little shaky.
Zhang Heng carried the wild ginseng and rode away on his big horse.
"Damn Zhang Heng, I wish I could skin you alive. . . "
Zhang Gui saw Zhang Heng riding away and stood at the door, gnashing his teeth as he spat. He suddenly frowned and murmured, "This kid went to the hunting ground, why did he suddenly become rich?"
"Manager, did you notice that on the neck of the horse that Young Family Head rode, there was a sign of Lee family. . . "
Suddenly, a shop assistant came over mysteriously and whispered into Zhang Gui's ear.
"Oh?"
Zhang Gui's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded thoughtfully.
An hour later, a group of people arrived on the street where the Lee family was located, and their cries shook the sky.
Young Family Head and Lee Wei of the Lee family had personally led a group of guards to the entrance of the hunting grounds, and on the floor of the entrance, there were already seven or eight black wooden coffins. Within the coffins laid the corpses of Li Cheng and the others.
"Whoever killed my brother, I will make him pay with his blood!"
Lee Wei, who was wearing golden armor, was very handsome, but right now, he was lying in front of Li Cheng's coffin and crying loudly.
"Someone from the Lee family was killed?"
Zhang Gui heard the sound and walked out of the shop. After looking around from afar, he suddenly had an idea and quickly walked towards Lee Wei.
"Don't come close to those who have nothing to do!"
"Zhang family members, don't come and join in the fun. Otherwise, do not blame us for not having eyes!"
The guard immediately stepped forward with his saber and stopped Zhang Gui.
"Young master of Lee family, I know who the murderer is. . . "
Zhang Gui anxiously waved his hand at Lee Wei. Lee Wei heard him and raised his eyebrows. He stared at Zhang Gui and shouted in a low voice: "Ask him to come here!"
The guard stepped aside. Zhang Gui walked quickly to Lee Wei and whispered into his ear.
"Zhang Heng. . . "
Lee Wei angrily shouted, and with a clang, he pulled out his sword, "I will definitely tear you into a thousand pieces!"
. . .
. . .
On the other side, after Zhang Heng returned to his residence, he asked the maid to bring him some face washing water and some exquisite food. He was eating and drinking at a leisurely pace.
"Xiao Yaen, go and take these five wild mountain ginseng to soak in wine. "
Zhang Heng took out five wild mountain ginseng and handed it to Servant Girl Xiao Yaen, who was next to him.
"Yes, young master. "
Xiao Yaen nodded and carefully took the wild ginseng and left.
Zhang Heng ate the exquisite food, unscrewed the water bottle at his waist, and drank a few mouthfuls.
"Congratulations to host for absorbing spirit energy, obtained 50 experience points!"
"Congratulations to host for absorbing spirit energy, you have received 50 experience points!"
"[Congratulations to user for absorbing spirit energy, gained 50 experience points!]"
"[Congratulations to user for absorbing spirit energy, gained 50 experience points!]"
A series of system notifications rang out, causing Zhang Heng to be overjoyed.
After finishing the meal, he finished the pot of water. When Zhang Heng patted his belly in satisfaction as he sat on the chair and burped, a system notification suddenly sounded. "Ding! System Notification: Congratulations to host for reaching the boundary of experience, level up. Current level: Fighter 6-dan! System Notification: Congratulations to host for reaching the boundary of experience, level up. Current level: Fighter 6-dan! "
In an instant, Zhang Heng felt his aura increase crazily. Vaguely, he seemed to hear a crisp popping sound.
After that, his aura reached an even higher peak!
This was Fighter 6-dan?
Zhang Heng widened his eyes in shock.
Was there a mistake?
Ordinary martial artists cultivated day and night, and it was difficult for them to advance a level in a year and a half. Zhang Heng leveled up in the time it took for him to eat a meal?
"Awesome. If this continues, I won't be able to be a Young Family Head. If it wasn't for the passing of time, I would have taken Zhang Chuan down. I have more than enough time to be the leader!"
Zhang Heng was beaming with joy.
"Young Family Head, the Great Elder wants to see you. "
At this time, Servant Girl Xiao Yaen walked into the room and said sweetly.
"The Great Elder is here? Quickly invite him in. "
Zhang Heng waved his hand and thought for a while, then added: "Wait, I will personally go out to welcome him. " After saying that, he stood up and quickly walked out of the room.
He still respected the Great Elder, Zhang Maosen. He was an old man of his father's generation, an elder of the three dynasties. In the family, he was the one with the greatest authority besides the patriarch.
If Zhang Maosen hadn't tried his best to defend Zhang Heng during the meeting, Zhang Heng would have been stripped of his position.
"Greetings, Great Elder!"
When Zhang Heng saw Zhang Maosen, whose hair and beard were all white, he hurriedly went forward to greet him, "Great Elder, if you have any matters to attend to, just let your subordinates give you an order. I will naturally pay you a visit. There is no need for you to pay me a visit. "
Zhang Maosen stroked his beard and smiled. He patted Zhang Heng's shoulder and praised, Great Elder, if you have any matters, just let your subordinates give you an order. I will naturally pay a visit to you. "Zhang Heng, I didn't misjudge you. I originally thought that after you lost your cultivation, you would definitely lose all hope and never recover. I never thought that you would be able to pull yourself together again in such a short period of time, and protect the position of Young Family Head. "
"It's all thanks to the Great Elder's protection. "
Zhang Heng invited Zhang Maosen into the room and personally poured tea for Zhang Maosen.
Zhang Maosen took a sip of tea and coughed in pain. He smiled and looked at Zhang Heng, "I have come this time. I just want to remind you. Although you have saved Young Family Head's position, but. . . The current Zhang family was no longer the same as before. It was now completely under Zhang Chuan's control. He will definitely think of ways to kill you. You'd better not go out for the next few days. As long as you don't go out, I don't think he'll dare to mess around in the clan. "
