Ten Thousand Taels It Is!

As luck would have it, the Zhao Family used to live near the border, so Zhao Family ancestral home is located here.

This is also the Zhao Family's ancestral home. Zhou Wanwan looked around at the surroundings and nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad, not bad. I've seen many houses, but none of them are as good as this one."

Steward Zhao snorted coldly:

"Of course, how could ordinary families compare to the Zhao Family?"

You stay here and serve my young master well. As long as the fourth young master is happy, he will certainly not treat you badly.

Steward Zhao led her directly to the Fourth Young Master.

The fourth young master looked at Zhou Wanwan curiously and asked, "So you're Zhou Wanwan? How exactly do you train those dogs? How do they obey you?"

He looked at the dogs squatting next to Zhou Wanwan and said, "Chasing Wind, Pursuing Moon, come here."

But the two dogs completely ignored him and remained squatting next to Zhou Wanwan.

The fourth young master's expression changed. "This is really disobeying me completely! This is too strange. How did you manage to do that?"

Zhou Wanwan looked confused and said, "I don't know either! I just said a few words offhand, and they started listening to me."

How could those dogs possibly disobey?

The fourth young master frowned and said, "This is too strange. They usually only listen to me, so why are they suddenly listening to you? Do you have some special ability?"

Zhou Wanwan shook her head. She really didn't have any special abilities, but the people around her did!

The dogs were terrified when they saw the Old Scholar Tree and their Old Ancestor; how could they dare disobey?

In addition, the food at Zhou Wanwan's house is excellent, much better than the food here.

Despite Zhao Family wealth, the Zhao Family is actually quite stingy.

Take the fourth young master for example. They are given beef every day, which is good, but it's only a small bite, not even enough to fill a tooth gap.

But Zhou Wanwan's situation is different. Not only does she eat meat at every meal, but the meat also tastes especially delicious.

The fourth young master was undeterred and continued to communicate with the dozen or so dogs.

Unfortunately, the dozen or so dogs ignored him completely, acting as if they didn't recognize him at all.

The fourth young master frowned in anger. "This is unbelievable! How dare you, you brat, be more powerful than me? Go kneel outside!"

This fourth young master is quite unreasonable; he's incredibly jealous of Zhou Wanwan's ability to train these dogs.

Zhou Wanwan's lips twitched. Is this child crazy?

She can tame these dogs, so why should she kneel down?

The man in the brocade robe standing nearby said, "Are you deaf? The young master told you to kneel down. Can't you understand human language?"

Zhou Wanwan looked at the fourth young master and said, "Why should I kneel down? You didn't tell me this beforehand!"

The fourth young master smashed the teacup:

"How dare you! Ten taels of silver is enough to buy your life, and you still dare to bargain?"

"Go kneel at the door for an hour now. If you don't kneel properly, you won't get dinner tonight."

Zhou Wanwan was truly speechless!

They actually threatened her with dinner; kneeling is out of the question.

She had just gotten up when she heard a dog bark in the yard.

Before the fourth young master could react, he saw hundreds of dogs rushing towards the room.

He was startled and exclaimed, "What's going on? Why have all my dogs run out?"

Before he could react, the dogs rushed into the house, barking wildly at him, and some even tried to bite him.

The fourth young master panicked completely. "What's wrong with you dogs? Who let you out?"

Unfortunately, no one answered him, because all the animals he was raising had escaped.

The fourth young master has a great passion for collecting all sorts of animals, not just dogs, but also snakes, lizards, spiders, and most terrifyingly, several tigers, crocodiles, lions, wolves, hyenas...

All of these things came out, and the scene was chaotic.

The fourth young master was so frightened that he stood on the table and said, "Don't come any closer! I've been so good to you all, what's wrong with you today?"

Zhou Wanwan, sitting beside him, said gloatingly, "Fourth Young Master, what's going on? Why are your pets attacking you?"

The fourth young master looked at Zhou Wanwan and said, "It was you who did this, wasn't it? Get these things out of here right now."

Zhou Wanwan shook her head and said, "No, how could I compare to Fourth Young Master's abilities? I'll go out and kneel down right now."

After saying that, Zhou Wanwan wanted to leave.

The fourth young master shouted, "Come back! Come back here! What do you want?"

Zhou Wanwan stopped and turned to look at the Fourth Young Master, saying, "Not very good!"

The fourth young master looked at Zhou Wanwan and said, "Alright, you can let them all leave, and I'll give you 100 taels of silver, how about it?"

100 taels? This fourth young master is too naive.

"1000 taels..." He was genuinely terrified. Keeping these things was extremely dangerous; if he didn't get rid of them, it could easily lead to someone's death.

Moreover, he was not kind to these animals. For example, he often starved the tigers and whipped them frequently.

If he doesn't drive them away today, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Zhou Wanwan sneered, "No sincerity, ten thousand taels."

The fourth young master gritted his teeth and said, "Ten thousand taels? Why don't you just rob us?"

Zhou Wanwan chuckled and said, "What's stolen is never as good as what's earned? I can clearly earn money with my own hands, why would I steal it?"

Besides, if she wants to take it, who can stop her?

Seeing the lions about to bite him, the fourth young master shouted, "Ten thousand taels it is! Deal! Now make them leave!"

Zhou Wanwan nodded in satisfaction, and Nan Hao waved.

Then we saw the animals retreating like the tide receding.

The fourth young master breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Zhou Wanwan, asking, "How did you do that?"

Zhou Wanwan looked at him and said, "It's a secret, money."

The fourth young master had someone give her a silver note, which Zhou Wanwan accepted with satisfaction. She said, "Thank you, fourth young master. Where shall I stay tonight?"

The fourth young master's lips twitched as he said, "Sleep in the woodshed. That's the only empty room there. Go there now!"

The Old Scholar Tree outside was cursing and swearing. "I told you to go to the woodshed, but that woodshed is full of rats and stinks. How can anyone live there?"

Zhou Wanwan smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, I'll switch with him when we go to bed tonight!"

The Old Scholar Tree nodded. Soon it was dinnertime, and Zhou Wanwan looked at the housekeeper and asked, "What am I having for dinner tonight?"

The butler snorted coldly and said:

"You have to go to the kitchen to get your leftovers every day, so hurry up!"

If you don't go now, you won't even get leftovers.

When Zhou Wanwan got to the kitchen, she found that there were no leftovers left.

The kitchen manager looked at her coldly and said, "Remember to come earlier next time, or you won't get anything to eat. Now go home!"

Zhou Wanwan sighed helplessly. Just as she reached the backyard, she heard the Fourth Young Master say:

"That wretched girl, I don't know where she learned those skills from."

They actually managed to turn the wild beasts I'd worked so hard to raise against me! I'm so angry!

I will absolutely not let her get away with this.
