Chapter 1985 Arrival at the Pang Family
Han State, Xuanwu County, Yanshan Town.
Pang family.
"Yi'er! Why are you back?"
"Father! Mother! Big brother!" After Pang Yi returned home, she threw herself into the arms of her family and cried loudly, "Yi'er is useless..."
"What happened?" The Pang family actually noticed Jia Zhengjin and Nuwa behind them, but because Pang Yi came back suddenly, they asked him anxiously what happened.
"The ship sank!" Pang Yi cried bitterly in her parents' arms. "All the cargo was lost! The crew members were all gone. If it hadn't been for my benefactor, Yi'er would have been buried in the belly of a fish right now!"
"What?! All the goods are gone?!" Upon hearing this, Mr. Pang felt like the world was spinning and he almost fell to the ground.
"Dad!" The eldest son hurriedly helped his father, "Are you okay?"
"So many goods...so many goods are just gone?" Master Pang pointed at Pang Yi with stars in his eyes, "You unfilial son!"
"Master!" Upon seeing this, Mrs. Pang hurriedly protected her son, "It's not easy for Yi'er to return safely. Is the goods more precious than Yi'er in your eyes?"
"Dad! It's the child's fault, you can punish me however you want!" Pang Yi knelt down, "Just beat me to death!"
"Master!" Mrs. Pang quickly stopped Pang Yi behind her.
It took a while for Mr. Pang to reluctantly turn it over, but at least he didn't pass out from excitement on the spot.
That ship of goods sank to the bottom of the sea, which was an extremely huge loss to the Pang family.
"Master, let's put the cargo aside for now." In order to prevent her husband from punishing her beloved second son, Mrs. Pang quickly changed the subject, "We have to thank our benefactor. If it weren't for him, Yi'er might not have come back!"
"Yes, dad!" Pang Yi nodded hurriedly, "If it hadn't been for Daoist Jia's help, the child's life would not have been saved."
Mr. Pang nodded, slapped his chest hard to calm down, forced a smile that was uglier than crying, and walked to Jia Zhengjin: "Master Jia, you are neglecting me! I, Pang You, thank you for saving Yi'er. I didn't expect it. This kind of thing happened, I was a little rude for a while, I hope the Taoist priest can forgive me!"
"Heavenly Lord of Infinite Fortune and Longevity! Mr. Pang is so polite." Jia Zhengjin imitated a Taoist monk and smiled and saluted.
"I am Pang Liu, thank you so much for saving Yi'er!" Mrs. Pang hugged the soaked Pang Yi tightly, not caring about her gorgeous clothes.
"My benefactor, Pang Li is deeply grateful for your help!" Pang Yi's eldest brother also came over to express his thanks.
"It's a small effort, nothing worth mentioning!" Jia Zhengjin nodded, "Now that the person has been delivered, it's time for the poor man to leave."
As he spoke, he turned around and prepared to leave with Nuwa.
"My dear friend, wait a minute!" Pang Yi hurriedly broke away from her mother's arms, ran over and said anxiously, "I can't repay you for your kindness, but please come to my house as a guest!"
"Yes, my benefactor!" Mrs. Pang and Liu came over and saluted, "The Pang family is deeply grateful for your life-saving grace. Please come over and gather with me."
"Taoist Master Jia, I'm a rough man and don't know how to speak nicely." Pang You said, "Although a shipload of goods was lost, at least it's all thanks to the Taoist priest that this kid came back safely. From today on, you are a distinguished guest of my Pang family, I We will prepare a simple meal for Taoist priest immediately, please don’t dislike it!”
"My benefactor,
You saved my little brother and are a great benefactor to my Pang family! Pang Li came over and said, "Please come and sit in the humble house for a while!" "
Jia Zhengjin wanted to drop him off and leave, but the Pang family couldn't resist their enthusiasm, and he was finally surrounded by people and entered the house.
All delicacies from the mountains and seas were put on the table. To express their gratitude, the Pang family was very enthusiastic.
At the banquet, Mr. Pang asked about the whole process.
Jia Zhengjin then told the story in detail about the process of hearing the cry for help, seeing the sinking ship, and rescuing Pang Yi, excluding unnecessary content.
Combined with what Pang Yi said before, the Pang family is sure that this matter is true. A Taoist monk will not lower his body and lie here.
Although the loss of a large ship of cargo and the crew members who were killed is a big problem, and it will take a long time to deal with the aftermath, at least the second son returned safely, which is better than anything else.
The whole family of Pang You, Pang Liu, Pang Li, and Pang Yi thanked Jia Zhengjin again and again, and even wanted to give Jia Zhengjin a large amount of gold and silver in return.
It's just that gold and silver treasures are meaningless to Jia Zhengjin, so he refuses without hesitation.
So Mr. Pang tried to give him a shop as a gift or help him pay for the construction of a large Taoist temple, but they were also rejected.
The Pang family tried their best to find a way to repay, but Jia Zhengjin didn't care and refused them one by one.
"Then at least, please stay at my Pang family while the Taoist priest is in Yishan Town." Mr. Pang thought for a while, "The most important thing in my house is the house. I guarantee to prepare a quiet place for you. All the expenses of the Taoist priest during his time in Yishan Town , it’s all borne by my Pang family!”
"No need!" Jia Zhengjin shook his head.
"Taoist Priest, at least my Pang family must bear this responsibility!" Pang You said anxiously, "I have to repay the great kindness of saving my life!"
The four members of the Pang family once again took turns to persuade, and finally Jia Zhengjin nodded. They had to bear their own expenses here, so be it!
That being said, Jia Zhengjin had nothing to spend money on anyway, so by agreeing to it smoothly, he could at least be a little cleaner.
Mr. Pang, Mrs. Pang, and even Pang Yi's brother, all valued him very much. They only said one or two words to blame him and never mentioned it again. That is to say, dealing with the aftermath is more troublesome and wastes a lot of energy.
With so many crew members dead, the pensions and miscellaneous expenses are not a small sum of money.
It must be handled properly, and the crew members' families must not come to the door to make trouble. The other party must accept this reality and be satisfied with the way it is handled.
Although some of the crew members sold themselves into slavery, they didn't have to worry about their death. But most of them were still employees, and the government was not easy to deal with. Dealing with the follow-up was a big hassle, and it was also dangerous for the Pang family.
An improper handling could become a fuse and a handle in the hands of the Pang family's enemy family.
Jia Zhengjin had no other plans for the time being. After leaving Kang County, he just waited for Yue Lang's second gambling game to be successfully set up, and just killed time during this period.
When he came to Xuanwu County in Han State, he didn't have to worry about the emotional signs of Yuan Muping and Huo'er. It was just right to take a walk and appreciate the different scenery and culture.
After the banquet, the Pang family arranged two of the best guest rooms for Jia Zhengjin and Nuwa, and sent people to serve them carefully, without any neglect.
After that, Mr. Pang took his second son Pang Yi to deal with the follow-up issues, and he also had to try to figure out the location of the sunken ship and let his son point it out on the sea chart.
Madam Pang Liu was responsible for leading people to comfort the families of the victims and sent a large sum of silver to smooth over the matter.
The eldest son Pang Li was left to entertain Jia Zhengjin at home.
Pang Li made some arrangements and came to Jia Zhengjin's room: "My benefactor, are you satisfied with this room?"
"Satisfied!" Jia Zhengjin nodded slightly.
"What are your plans next?"
"No plans! Just take a walk and have a look."
"In this case, why don't I lead the way tonight? The night market in the town of Qishan is very lively and suitable for sightseeing."
