Chapter 733: 339 Baby (Fourth Watch)_3

Gu Jiao simply nodded: "Understood, I will pass it on to Ayan."

By evening, Gu Jiao returned home.

While shoveling chicken dung, Gu Yan, who just received his monthly wage of ten taels from Lord Gu, laughed heartily with hands on his hips!

"Little Monk!"

He found Little Jingkong in the vegetable garden in the front yard and triumphantly shoved a shovel and a small dustpan into the young lad’s hands: "Good, from now on, you will have to shovel the chicken dung yourself!"

Little Jingkong frowned at him: "Are you going to leave your work undone again?"

Gu Yan raised an eyebrow and bent over to bring two silver ingots to Jingkong, boasting, "Aren’t these beautiful? What do you think they are?"

Little Jingkong cast him a sideways glance: "Are you being silly? Why are you asking me?"

"Tsk——" Gu Yan couldn’t help but scoff. He crouched down, still looking at the youngster, "What I meant was, I have acquired some silver now, I can repay my debt. I won’t need to work off the debt anymore!"

"Really?" Little Jingkong stretched out the ending tone, looking at him skeptically.

Gu Yan chuckled: "Of course! These are real silvers, if you don’t believe me you can ask Jiaojiao!"

A four-year-old child generally would not recognize the specifications of silver, but the young landlord started collecting rent more than half a year ago. With monthly payment of thirty taels, he was quite familiar with silver.

"This is ten taels." Little Jingkong noted.

"Correct, it is ten taels!" Gu Yan agreed.

Little Jingkong casually said, "Do you remember how much you owe me?"

That question stumped Gu Yan.

Well, how much did he owe the kid, anyway?

Little Jingkong put down the small shovel and dustpan. He took out a small book from his chest pocket while flipping through the pages and told Gu Yan solemnly, "In total, you borrowed fifty taels from me. In a month, the interest was a tael and a half. For nine months, the accrued interest is thirteen taels."

Gu Yan was taken aback: "Bu-but I have been working for so long, aren’t you considering that!"
