Chapter 339 Bet
Seeing this scene, Zhang Tuhu looked at Wen Tao triumphantly, with the look in his eyes clearly saying, if you can't do it, give up quickly, with so many people watching, don't let it get you down later.

Wen Tao knew so much about Zhang Tuhu's psychology. He immediately showed righteous indignation after just one glance, and clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention.

"Fathers and folks, brother Zhang wants to make a bet with me today. If I can lift the pork on the chopping board, brother Zhang will guarantee that I will have meat every day. If I can't lift it, I will give it to Zhang every day." The big brother will do it for free, and the big guy will be a witness for the younger brother, and when the younger brother sees the meat, he will share it with everyone."

A group of onlookers came here because they were bored, but when they heard that there might be meat to eat as a witness, they immediately became interested and started booing one by one.

"Butcher Zhang, you can't bully Brother Wen. Your plate of meat is probably worth two hundred catties instead of three hundred catties." A fairer person in the crowd immediately shouted, although the chopping board is not big, but It was piled full of pork, overlapping each other so heavily that even Butcher Zhang couldn't say that he would be able to lift it.

When Tuhu Zhang heard this, he immediately became unhappy, and said with a straight face: "Old man Li, you have to be responsible for what you say. It was Brother Wen who wanted to bet with me, not I begging him to bet with me. Brother Wen, you Tell me if this is the reason." Zhang Tuhu said, turning his head to look at Wen Tao, with an aggrieved expression on his face.

Wen Tao smiled and looked at Zhang Tuhu and the old man Li who was fighting for him, waved his hands and said, "Master Li, you are doing it for the boy's good, and the boy is grateful, but the boy is so arrogant that he refuses to admit defeat, let alone this mere 200 catties!" Even if Big Brother Zhang stands up again, I can lift him up together."

Hey!
Wen Tao's words immediately made everyone present gasp, and after a brief moment of surprise, someone suddenly laughed and said, "Brother Wen, don't brag, your brother Zhang has at least two hundred catties, plus this A plate of meat weighs nearly five hundred catties, no matter how strong you are, I don't believe you can lift it."

As soon as the words came out, someone echoed, "Yes, brother Wen, now is not the time for you to brag, you should think about how to lift that piece of meat."

Wen Tao looked at the two people who were talking, there was no expression on his face, but he was still smiling in his heart. These two people were not someone else. After a few days of observation, he found that these two people were almost sent by the Demon Sect. These two people are responsible for transporting the daily melons, fruits, vegetables and grains of the Demon Cult.

It's the two of you waiting.Wen Tao sneered in his heart, but said in his mouth: "Brother Li, Brother Wang. Don't talk about bragging, you two dare to make a bet with me, if I can lift this piece of meat with Brother Zhang, How about the two of you just agree to one condition, little brother?"

The second brother Wang who spoke has not yet spoken, but the first brother Li touched his mustache and laughed, and said: "Boy, your abacus is very precise. If you lift it up, the two of us will People have to promise you a condition, if you can't lift it, you have nothing to lose."

Wen Tao was about to speak when he heard what he said, but he heard Zhang Tuhu interjected: "Your surname is Li, don't you just want to take advantage of it? Lift the pork chopping board with me, and you have to promise him one condition, if he can't lift it, I, Zhang Butcher, will deliver meat to you every day, even for a month!"

Butcher Zhang's voice was obviously displeased. Wen Tao glanced at him in surprise, but found that Butcher Zhang seemed righteous when he said this. Looking carefully, Butcher Zhang's feet were trembling, not like him at all. Acted so calmly.

Thinking about it carefully, Wen Tao suddenly realized that Zhang Tuhu is a strict wife, and making a bet with Wen Tao is already a challenge to his wife's authority, and now he is making a bet with the surnamed Li. If you deliver meat to yourself, you have to deliver meat to someone surnamed Li. If this is the case, Butcher Zhang should stop doing this business. The meat he delivers every day is enough for him to lose money.

Thinking of this, Wen Tao couldn't help feeling warm in his heart. No matter what, Zhang Tuhu still took good care of himself. At this juncture, he had to bet for himself, even though he was making a bet with others. This shows that Zhang Tuhu is real. Treat him like a brother.

Wen Tao, who was already a little guilty of using Butcher Zhang, certainly couldn't let Butcher Zhang pay money and people, so he took out a jade pendant from his bosom, looked at the man surnamed Li with golden eyes, with a hint of determination on his face, and said: "Brother Zhang, your kindness is in my heart, but the person who bet is my brother, how can I let you, Brother Zhang, pay for my gambling again? Brother Li, this jade pendant was left to me by my mother, it is my family heirloom , I will use it to bet with you."

The man surnamed Li had already drooled when he saw this jade pendant, but he still pretended to be disdainful and said: "You said that a family heirloom is a family heirloom, the ghost knows if you just came to bet with me with that inferior jade, I'm a saint The people who teach, how can you send away this piece of broken jade?"

As soon as the man surnamed Li said the words, Butcher Zhang became unhappy immediately. He pulled Wen Tao behind him, stared down at the man surnamed Li condescendingly, and said loudly with eyes the size of copper bells: "Li, don't give me your name!" Shameless, Brother Wen bet you with the heirloom to give you face, and then force me to chop you up."

The man surnamed Li obviously didn't expect Zhang Tuhu to dare to speak to him like this, and his face turned red when he saw the aggressive Zhang Tuhu.

At this time, the man surnamed Wang who had not spoken all this time stood up, took the jade pendant in Wen Tao's hand, looked it over carefully, then looked up at the man surnamed Li, and said lightly: "This jade pendant is the best suet pendant. The jade is exquisitely carved, and the market valuation is at least 3000 taels of silver, if I were you, I would bet on it."

Hearing what the man surnamed Wang said, the onlookers immediately exclaimed. Although they had no worries about food and drink in this remote town, they had never seen such a huge sum of 3000 taels of silver when they came out of the womb. At this time, they couldn't help being surprised when they heard the surname Wang say that this jade pendant was worth 3000 taels of silver.

Wen Tao glanced at the middle-aged man surnamed Wang in surprise, and found that he was grinning at him. Wen Tao smiled back, curious in his heart, this seemingly quiet and honest man had such vicious eyes. The piece of jade pendant was worth 3000 taels of silver, but it was not his family heirloom, but Liu Qingyi casually threw it to him when he asked Liu Qingyi for an inconspicuous but valuable item, saying it was the most precious item on his body. worthless things.

Wen Tao knew that Liu Qingyi was rich, but he didn't expect Liu Qingyi to be so rich. The jade pendant worth 3000 taels of silver became the least valuable thing in his mouth.

You must know that in Tiannan, ten taels of silver is enough to feed a family of five for a month. The purchasing power of these 3000 taels of silver is evident.
