C35 Encountering robbers

"Hmm, it's really not bad. It's very rare." The medicine store manager praised.

"Then take a look at how much it is worth."

Mo Xiaoyan was a little excited, and asked in a hurry.

The shopkeeper thought for a moment and said, "How about this? I'll give you thirty-five taels of silver. What do you think?"

In Mo Xiaoyan's opinion, thirty silver was not a small amount of income even in the ancient times, especially for the poor families.

The shopkeeper was also a straightforward person, so he hurriedly thanked, "Thank you, storekeeper."

"Then I'll take it. Including the herbs, it'll be an extra three hundred coins. You can go and get the money now."

Mo Xiaoyan took the silver and left the medicine store. She counted the copper coins outside and looked at the silver curiously. She had only seen fake money on television before, but now that she saw it for real, she had to watch it properly.

However, what she didn't notice was that there were already a few people eyeing her.

Mo Xiaoyan was preparing to buy some things, but because she was still not familiar with the streets of this town, the last time she came with Mo Linyu, she only strolled around a few times.

Therefore, he wanted to buy something this time. However, he didn't know where it was, so he had to take a look for himself.

Walking to the corner with fewer people, the people who had been following Mo Xiaoyan all this while finally could not take it anymore. In the place where there were many people, they did not dare make a move, there were not many people left, so it must be the best time to make a move.

A few of them ran to the front of Mo Xiaoyan and surrounded him. Obviously, Mo Xiaoyan did not know that she had been followed for so long.

Now that they saw what was happening, even the dumbest person would have realized what was going on.

Facing these men, all of them had shifty looks and glared at them. From a glance, they didn't seem to be good people. He was only nine years old, and was still a child. Obviously, he did not come for them. He was sure that when he came out of the medicine store, these people had their eyes on his silver.

A skinny man with the appearance of a monkey said, "Little girl, if you know your place, obediently hand over all your silver. Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite."

Seeing that Mo Xiaoyan still did not seem to want to hand over the silver, the other man took out his blade and threatened: "Little miss, if you want to live, you better take it out now.

Actually, this was the first time Mo Xiaoyan had encountered such a situation. She wasn't afraid that it would be fake, and the opponent was a man. It was not that he did not want to take the blade, with his small and weak physique, he would definitely not be able to escape.

"Please, big brothers, let me go. My silver is very important to our family. We don't even have enough to eat anymore and eat wild vegetables everyday. Without these silver taels, our family will starve to death."

There was nothing she could do now. She could only pretend that she was pitiful and buy some time to see if there would be a miracle and someone would come to save her.

However, when ordinary people saw this situation, they probably wouldn't care. After all, the other side had a lot of people and all of them had lethal weapons. No one wanted to bring trouble to themselves. This was not like modern times calling the police just because they wanted to win a prize. However, after seeing the money they had just received, they didn't want to give it to others.
