Slaughtering Pigs on Credit

Fang Rongrong's voice trembled slightly as she pleaded in a low voice, "Changming, my father has caught a severe cold, and the doctor said we need 180 copper coins for medicine."

Please, my father's cold is really bad, and he's old; he can't take any more stress.

Chen Changqing found it hard to believe.

Chen Changming is no ordinary person; he is a beast tamer. 180 copper coins are nothing to him.

On weekdays, hunting in the mountains can earn one or two hundred copper coins a day.

On the day he first arrived, the hunting team caught eight wild boars, and Chen Changming received 500 copper coins.

Chen Changming was in a bad mood and shouted, "You're so old, what's the point of living? Get back here and stop embarrassing yourself!"

180 copper coins was indeed nothing to Chen Changming.

But Chen Changming was a stingy man who almost never gave his wife money.

Moreover, Chen Changming has been extremely angry ever since he heard the rumors about Fang Rongrong and Chen Changqing.

For the past six months, Chen Changming has been extremely angry whenever he sees Fang Rongrong. He even refused to let Fang Rongrong into his bed and sent her to sleep in the woodshed.

He himself would openly bring other women home to sleep at any time.

If Fang Rongrong showed the slightest dissatisfaction, she would be beaten.

In the past six months, he hasn't given Fang Rongrong a single penny.

Fang Rongrong couldn't hold back her tears. She raised her head, her eyes pleading, "Changming, I beg you..."

My father's cold is really bad this time. If he doesn't take medicine soon, I'm afraid...

"Afraid of what?" Chen Changming interrupted her impatiently, his tone becoming increasingly harsh. He snapped, "So what if your father is dead? What does that have to do with me! Get out of here and stop getting in my way!"

Fang Rongrong knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face, her expression pleading: "Changming, you usually give those women outside one or two hundred coins every now and then..."

I just want 180 coins, please. I'll do anything for you from now on.

"Insolence!" Chen Changming roared in anger, slapping Fang Rongrong hard across the face.

"Slap!" The crisp sound of a slap echoed in the air.

Chen Changming shouted angrily, "That's my money! I have the right to spend it on whomever I want! You fickle, shameless woman, how dare you even covet it?"

Fang Rongrong staggered from the blow and nearly fell to the ground.

Her cheeks instantly swelled up and turned red, and a trickle of blood seeped from the corner of her mouth.

She covered her face, her eyes filled with gloom and despair, tears streaming down her face like broken beads.

Upon hearing this, Chen Changqing frowned slightly.

As far as he knew, Fang Rongrong had always been a virtuous woman before the rumors about her predecessor surfaced.

But because of Chen Changming, he would often bring women from outside his home and order Fang Rongrong to serve them.

He beat Fang Rongrong up with a single wrong word.

Fang Rongrong sought revenge on Chen Changming by finding his former, infamous predecessor.

However, nothing actually happened between them and their predecessor.

Chen Changming later learned about their affair.

Chen Changming nearly beat Fang Rongrong to death, leaving her bedridden for three whole days.

After that, no more rumors or gossip emerged.

You know, the original owner spent all his time mingling with those women, so if Fang Rongrong were to spread any rumors, she would definitely find out very quickly.

If the predecessor didn't hear any rumors, then it means that nothing is wrong.

Chen Changming's insult to Fang Rongrong, calling her a promiscuous and shameless woman, must have stemmed from the rumors and gossip surrounding her and her predecessor.

So, the reason why Chen Changming was so harsh on Fang Rongrong, refusing to give her 180 coins, is because of his predecessor.

What a mess the predecessor made.

Chen Changqing was quite helpless.

He shouldn't have interfered in other people's family affairs, but because of him, a vulnerable woman was being treated this way, and he couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her.

Chen Changqing pondered for a moment, then stepped forward and said to Chen Changming, "Chen Changming, there's absolutely nothing between you and your wife. We're completely innocent."

Chen Changming turned to look at Chen Changqing, his anger rising even higher. He sneered, "What, you feel sorry for me hitting my wife? Are you still thinking about this promiscuous piece of trash?"

Chen Changqing's anger surged, but he didn't lash out. He stepped forward and whispered, "I have a problem with that. I can't get it up. There's really nothing between you and your wife. Not just your wife, there's nothing between me and other women either."

Chen Changqing doesn't want to find a woman right now, nor does he have the time or inclination to.

This reputation for being unable to get an erection doesn't affect him much.

It can also ease the tension between those women and their families.

Upon hearing this, Chen Changming was slightly taken aback. He looked Chen Changqing up and down a few times, his expression turning strange: "What did you say?"

Fang Rongrong, who was crying nearby, paused slightly in her sobs. No wonder she hadn't done *that* with her; it turned out there was something wrong with that guy.

Chen Changqing whispered, "When I was working as a servant in the Immortal Spirit Cave, I accidentally got injured there and developed a problem. I started flirting with women to cover up this problem."

A smile appeared in Chen Changming's eyes. No wonder he almost beat Fang Rongrong to death before. Fang Rongrong said that she and Chen Changqing didn't have that kind of relationship.

Moreover, although the women in the town were exchanging flirtatious glances with Chen Changqing, no one ever noticed that anyone was spending the night at Chen Changqing's house.

It was also discovered that Chen Changqing spent the night at any woman's house.

That's how relationships are.

It seems he misunderstood Fang Rongrong.

A pang of guilt rose in Chen Changming's heart, but he instantly became angry again.

Even flirting with Chen Changqing is unacceptable; she deserves to be beaten to death.

Chen Changqing warned with a dark face, "I'm only telling you this now. If you spread this around, don't blame me for being impolite."

"Don't worry, haha, don't worry, I will definitely not spread it." Chen Changming nodded repeatedly, and even laughed out loud.

His mood, which had been depressed for two or three days, instantly improved.

That bastard Chen Changqing is actually useless.

Hahahahaha...

It's so delightful.

Chen Changming's mood instantly brightened.

"Waaah..." At this moment, Fang Rongrong's sobs started again.

She felt so wronged; it turned out Chen Changqing was no good.

Not only did she fail to get revenge on Chen Changming, she was also nearly beaten to death by him.

For the past six months or so, he's been beaten up at the drop of a hat.

She was so wronged.

Chen Changming's face turned ugly again. He took out more than twenty silver leaves from his pocket, threw them on the ground, and angrily scolded, "What are you yelling about? Are you wailing like a mourner? Your father isn't dead yet. If you don't go get your father's medicine, you'll really start wailing like a mourner."

"Thank you, thank you, I'll go right away, I'll go right away." Fang Rongrong quickly wiped away her tears and hurriedly picked up the silver leaves.

Chen Changqing felt terrible seeing Fang Rongrong's disheveled appearance.

However, he dared not say anything more, lest Chen Changming deal with him again when he returned.

Chen Changming said with a look of disgust, "Shut up and be polite with me, my ass! Get lost! Don't embarrass yourself here!"

Fang Rongrong lowered her head, picked up the silver leaves, and hurriedly left.

Chen Changqing looked at Chen Changming and warned him again, "Brother Changming, I told you this because I wanted to restore our relationship. You must not tell anyone else about it."

Chen Changming patted his chest repeatedly: "Don't worry, my mouth is the tightest seal."

However, he was thinking to himself, how could he get rid of the green hat on his head if he didn't tell everyone about this?

It must be known to everyone.

Also, Chen Changqing didn't explain things to him properly before.

They beat him until his face was bruised and swollen, leaving him utterly humiliated and unable to hold his head up in front of others.

Now that he's become stronger, he's offering an explanation.

late.

The humiliation he had been feeling during this period was not something that could be easily erased.

Only Chen Changqing's life can eliminate this.

As soon as an opportunity arises, kill it.

But this guy can't get up.

Hahahahaha...

That's hilarious.

Chen Changming glanced at Chen Changqing every now and then, feeling extremely happy.

It felt like drinking a glass of iced plum juice on a hot summer day.

That was incredibly awesome.

Chen Changming was in a good mood and even hummed a song.

Chen Changqing turned his head to look at Chen Changming: "Brother Changming, does anyone have pigs for sale? I'll slaughter one on credit."

There's only one Wang's Butcher Shop in town now. Wang's Butcher Shop doesn't slaughter pigs, and I doubt there are any other places like that.

Then let's slaughter a few on credit first.

The domestic pig's soul is quite powerful; the phantom of that black pig just now had several strands of its soul essence refined from it.

They're worth as much as six tree martens.

There are not many prey in the Ghost Cry Forest.

During the three days in Ghost Cry Forest, if it weren't for the soul of that withered tree demon monkey, we would have survived.

The soul essence provided by those tree minks and fox ferrets alone is simply not enough.

Buy a few now and kill them, so we'll have more security when we go to Yunwu Mountain next time.

"Slaughtering pigs on credit?" Chen Changming was taken aback, wondering if he had misheard.

Wang's Butcher Shop has so much meat, and the prices aren't high.

And do you want to hear what you're saying?

Slaughtering pigs on credit?

You are a beast tamer, the most respected beast tamer in town.

Go to ordinary farmers' homes and buy pigs on credit!

Isn't that shameful?

"Yes, slaughter the pig on credit." Chen Changqing nodded.

"Why buy pigs on credit?" Chen Changming was very curious and didn't understand.

"I don't have the money to buy it." Chen Changqing shrugged helplessly.

"..." Chen Changming took a deep breath: "What I mean is, why did you want to slaughter the pig on credit?"

Chen Changqing said seriously, "Let the little black tiger kill them, to temper its ferocity and killing instinct."

The little black tiger beside him stared wide-eyed at Chen Changqing: "???"

Chen Changming's lips twitched: "Who told you that killing domestic pigs can train Black Tiger's ferocity and killing instinct?"

Chen Changqing said, "A friend of mine."

Chen Changming wanted to laugh; Chen Changqing's friend was definitely playing a fool.

But Chen Changqing, that fool, actually took it seriously.

"Do you know anyone who sells pigs?" Chen Changqing asked. Times were tough, and ordinary families couldn't afford to raise pigs.

Only families with good financial means can afford to raise pigs.

"My uncle's family raises three big, fat pigs, and Patrolman Liu's family also raises several," Chen Changming said, looking Chen Changqing up and down a few times. "But why would they give you credit?"

Chen Changqing looked at Chen Changming: "You vouch for me."

Just as Chen Changming was about to say why should I vouch for you, Chen Changqing said, "You vouch for a pig for me, and I'll give you fifty copper coins. I'll give you the money in ten days."

"Okay." Chen Changming nodded. It was just a guarantee. Chen Changqing's little black tiger nose was so sensitive. He had made more than nine thousand copper coins in the previous three days. It wouldn't be long before he could pay off Zhao Erhu's debt.

We can make a lot of money then.

Fifty copper coins, might as well take them.

Chen Changqing smiled and said, "Then please wait a moment. I need to discuss something with Wang Chengcai."

Chen Changming waved his hand: "Go ahead."

Chen Changqing walked into the butcher shop, and Wang Chengcai asked with a smile, "Is there anything else?"

Chen Changqing stepped forward: "Do you buy domestic pork?"

"Collecting?" Wang Cheng looked Chen Changqing up and down a few times, then teased, "Are you going to steal a pig?"

"Stealing an egg?" Chen Changqing's face darkened. "How much is a whole, freshly slaughtered pig per pound?"

"A whole, already killed," Wang Chengcai pondered, then added, "Five copper coins per pound."

Chen Changqing's face darkened: "Wild boars with hair sell for four copper coins per pound, but this is a slaughtered domestic pig, eight copper coins per pound."

Wang Chengcai said, "I'll give you six at most, take it or leave it."

"Okay, six it is then."

Chen Changqing strode away.

Soon, the two arrived at Chen Changming's uncle's house.

Although Chen Changqing was unreliable and had a bad reputation, he easily got two pigs on credit with Chen Changming's guarantee.

The little black tiger and the wolfhound chased after them, and the two fat pigs behaved very well.

They went straight to Zhang the butcher's house in the town.

Butcher Zhang was a man with a full beard.

They were unusually polite to the two of them.

After all, Chen Changqing and his companion were both notorious scoundrels.

He not only likes other people's wives, but he also beats up ordinary people for the slightest thing.

He is afraid.

He glanced back at his wife, who was even more robust than himself, and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Chen Changqing said, "I'll have my Black Tiger kill these two pigs later. You can take care of them for me. As usual, you can have the offal and stuff, okay?"

"Okay, okay, okay," Butcher Zhang nodded repeatedly.

Chen Changqing waved his hand: "Xiao Hei, go!"

Xiao Hei was helpless, but still obeyed its owner.

It rushed forward and slapped the black pig on the forehead with its tiger claw.

The little black tiger possessed terrifying strength, instantly killing the black pig.

"squeak……"

The other black pig was terrified and ran away with a scream.

But Black Tiger rushed forward and killed it.

Chen Changqing said, "Butcher Zhang, you go ahead with your work. I'll go get a few more pigs and come over later."

"Okay, okay, okay," Butcher Zhang nodded repeatedly.

The two visited several more places, and all went smoothly.

They got eight more pigs on credit.

The two men, along with a tiger and a wolf, drove eight pigs, making a grand procession through the town.

Chen Changqing had excellent hearing and could vaguely hear two women talking.

"How did those two scoundrels manage to herd so many pigs?"

"These two are completely different in terms of their brains; who knows what they're up to?"

"Didn't they say Chen Changqing cheated on Chen Changming?"

"Yeah, yeah, Chen Changqing not only cheated on Chen Changming, but he also almost beat Chen Changming to death."

"Why are those two playing together?"

"Chen Changqing has joined the Dark Sparrow Hunting Team, and the two are now teammates."

"Oh... but Chen Changqing still cheated on Chen Changming?"

"Who knows? Besides, Chen Changming has some mental issues, more or less."

Rongrong was so virtuous and good at first, but he was always flirting and behaving recklessly. It's no wonder his wife was seeing other men.

"That's right."

……

As evening fell, Chen Changqing and Chen Changming pushed a cart, delivering ten domestic pigs to Wang's butcher shop.
