Zhu Kui, who got up early, was sitting in the hall waiting for him, and Tian Wenhai went in to explain the pawned cash and the borrowed silver tickets, totaling more than 16,000 taels.

Tian Wenhai finally said: "The owner, all the IOUs and pawn tickets, it is clear that they are in accordance with the routine of three months of interest, if the money is not repaid after the expiration, it will be calculated with double interest, and people can not be regarded as the government or not, and they will follow this rule, otherwise they will alarm the government, and it will be the owner who is ashamed." ”

Often small shops do not dare to do business with the royal family and nobles, fearing that people can crush their own families by blowing a breath, but in fact, businessmen with a little bit of power like to deal with wealthy families the most, as long as they can buy and sell openly. Because firstly, the wealthy family wants to save face, and secondly, there are many scruples about the big moves, and the people who pawn things have unspeakable secrets, and they are not afraid of being publicized, but they are the most credible.

Zhu Kui said dissatisfiedly: "But it can be repaid in fifty days, how can it be three months?" How much silver can be refined with just this little bit? I told you so yesterday, you didn't even get 20,000 gold, and you are too useless. ”

"My lord!" Tian Wenhai stuck out his tongue and cried bitterly, "Are you so relaxed?" I don't know how much it cost me to pawn things, and I finally talked about 10,000 taels, even these 6,000 taels, and I don't know how much it took to spit, and it took more than a dozen to make it up, who wants to borrow money for no reason these days? It is not surprising that your old man has to move his mouth every day, but in fact, it is really more difficult than climbing to the sky

Alas! Where do you want to go before you are born without being flattered? Now they say good things everywhere, looking at people's faces, this is still the reputation of our Zhu family, and outsiders know that there is the protection of the Xu family, if they know that they have sold things today, let alone six thousand taels, I am afraid that one thousand taels will not be able to borrow. ”

"Yes." Zhu Kui sighed and frowned, "It's only sixteen thousand." 160,000 taels of silver, and it doesn't cost it? Do you want to clean up the whole house, re-purchase furniture, etc., paint the walls and walls, buy some and hire some people, at least 100,000 taels? The remaining 60,000 yuan is used to buy silk jewelry for female dependents, feast relatives and friends, and entertain people, how can we live? I don't want to rely on the Xu family's snort to live anymore, this time I have to stand on my own. That's right. There is also nephrite and the dowry of the two of them. Alas! ”

Tian Wenhai said with a smile: "Why should the owner be anxious? Leave 20,000 taels and then refine, so endlessly, are you afraid that you won't have money to live? ”

"That's right." Zhu Kui snapped his hands and said excitedly: "When we have the money, buy her a hundred stunning, what title is not a title, just leave Jinling and move to Hangzhou." Away from the land of right and wrong, hugging the beauty every day to travel around the mountains and rivers, and enjoy it happily for a lifetime. ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Tian Wenhai was also excited. He is not keen on women, and if he has money, he can buy an official to do, and he also enjoys the taste of majesty and response.

So the two of you say a word and I say a word - lewdness. More than an hour passed before I knew it. Suddenly, the family came in and said, "Young Master Yan has arrived." ”

"Quickly put away the silver, and the silver ticket went to exchange for the silver." After Zhu Kui finished speaking, he walked out to greet him.

Took people to the study, ate tea and chatted. In the evening, I went to the pavilion in the garden and went up to the high platform.

Yan Gongzi said: "Please brother salute the heavens." ”

"Okay." Zhu Kui hurriedly looked pious and kowtowed to the heavens and the earth and the gods in all directions one by one.

Almost. Yan Gongzi put away the spiritual position of the master's door, ordered the family to put out the fire, clamped out the red-burned clay pot, and muttered a few incantations.

Waited until the crockpot was cold, Yan Gongzi opened the seal, Zhu Kui hurriedly stepped forward and looked down, a jar full of silver, and suddenly threw himself to the ground for the five bodies that Yan Gongzi admired for his amazing skills, and the spell was real, it was amazing!

The two family members also widened their eyes, and their faces were incredible. Yan Gongzi smiled slightly, pushed it to the crockpot, and in an instant silver pieces of different sizes rolled out, Tian Wenhai squatted down and took a piece regardless of his identity, put it in his mouth and bit it, his eyes lit up.

"God, God!" Zhu Kui gave a thumbs up.

Yan Gongzi smiled, told the family to clean the pavilion, and pulled Zhu Kui towards the study, Tian Wenhai picked up the silver taels with a smile.

Back in the study, Yan Gongzi said with a smile: "Fortunately, now my brother can believe that my younger brother is not deceiving, right?" ”

"How dare you, how dare you, for my brother from the beginning I believe in it, I don't doubt it." Zhu Kui shouted again and again.

Set up a banquet to entertain Yan Gongzi, Zhu Kui toasted frequently, and asked with anticipation: "Sixteen thousand taels have been prepared, when will it start?" ”

Yan Gongzi said: "I have to rest for three days. ”

"It should." Zhu Kui smiled and nodded.

"That's it." Yan Gongzi said: "You can ask the craftsman to dig a big pit in the pavilion first, the surrounding area should be one zhang wide, and the depth should be one zhang, and the four sides should be built with square bricks, and a hundred loads of charcoal, and the rest of the things can still be as last time." After speaking, he smiled and said: "The hundred taels of silver refined this time are only enough to spend." ”

"What is this?" Zhu Kui turned his head and ordered Tian Wenhai to prepare, and returned the ten taels of silver that others had advanced.

Yan Gongzi laughed and said, "Why do you want to be so vulgar? What is ten taels of silver? If you are uneasy, how about being the host of tomorrow? ”

"It's better to be respectful than to obey." Zhu Kui couldn't help but secretly break his heart and scolded himself what's wrong? Where is the boldness of the past?

Xu's study, after Xu Hao listened to the whole story, he couldn't help but be very curious, it is not difficult to change ten taels into one hundred taels, but how to move away sixteen thousand taels without a trace?

Digging tunnels? Unlikely, because the garden is located in the Zhu family's inner house, and the pavilion is surrounded by water.

"Pool water?" Xu Hao knew the answer, so he explained a few words softly, and Zhang Luan left with a smile.

After a while, Xu Ye came in and said, "Dad, I have told the pawnshop to keep it properly." I don't know how to deal with the Zhu Kui brothers? ”

Xu Hao snorted coldly: "Such a stupid person, he will arrange a martial arts position in the coming year, and let his family leave Beijing to fend for themselves." He squandered 16,000 taels of belongings, and the rest had nothing to do with him, presumably he would not starve to death outside. ”

Qiushuitang, who had done a month's filial piety and was ready to go back, offended Xi Shiyi that day, and people threatened to clean her up outside, but there was nothing to do. These days, people say how Qin Yan drinks with him, how he complains, and he has to follow him, and he has created a lot of rumors. A little bit of a bad breath.

Xu Run and the others can't help Xi Shiyi, who is rich and rich, and has some friendships, if you go to theory, what does the bracelet say? However, Xu Yu was very angry, and quietly sent someone to inquire, and learned that Xi Shiyi's favorite concubine Chrysanthemum asked where the beloved jade bracelet went? Xi Shiyi said that he accidentally fell down, and Chrysanthemum was helpless.

The flower farmer made a meritorious service, secretly bought off the Xi family, and sued the chrysanthemum for the matter, and the chrysanthemum made a big fuss. It was so troublesome that Xi Shiyi was not a wolf, and he promised to buy a better one, so as to calm the anger of Chrysanthemum.

In the house, teenage Xiao Tianxiang and Cui Guan came to visit the door, they had all sung together before, Su Lan left them to eat, Qin Yan also came to sit for a while, listened to them talk about some interesting things in the opera garden, and then left.

talked about Xi Eleven. Xiao Tianxiang said: "He is the most ridiculous person, blindly abandoning the old and pitying the new, he has been good to me before, and he gives whatever he wants." Who knew that it would be cold in less than half a year. Recently, I have become obsessed with the little monk Deyue, and if he has obtained a treasure, he has alienated Cuiguan Tianshou and them. ”

Cui Guan said angrily: "I knew that he forgot one of them, look at the hurtful things he did in his hometown." I don't know how many children of good families have been ruined, and I don't know how to repay them in the future. ”

"I've heard about buckets too, how do you coax people?" Su Lan asked with interest.

Qin Yan didn't know anything about it. I heard Cui Guan say: "It is said to be a wooden barrel made by a craftsman, with a small mouth and a large bottom, and the inside is like a bell, which can attract people and hide the crying and shouting." Every time Xi Shiyi sent someone to lure the boy over, there were fun things in it, and he coaxed people to take them out with their hands. There was a layer of planks in the middle of the wooden hole, and there were two holes, and when the two hands reached in, he would lock his hands by pressing the mechanism, so that he could only shrug his ass and let him play with it. ”

Qin Yan only felt incredible, his face was slightly red, and he secretly scolded hateful, glad that he was not succeeded by Xi Shiyi at the beginning. Su Lan asked, "How do you know so clearly?" ”

"Of course, it's the first time I've fallen for him." Cui Guan's expression was stupid, "He brought the wooden barrel into the capital, and he didn't dare to play with the children of serious people, but he coaxed me to reach in, and he bullied me." Later, I heard that he couldn't help but bully a neighbor's child, and was denounced, and the government fined him 200 taels of silver and split the barrel. ”

In this regard, the ancient laws are as embarrassing and lacking as modern laws, and if you don't say anything about raping women, you can't help but rape boys, and at most you will be reprimanded and fined a few dollars.

Xiao Tianxiang said: "In the past, he treated people well, and he often rewarded things, but now he is also stingy, who rarely takes his ass to honor him?" He bullied Sister Qin Yan again, why didn't he get a rotten sore and die, and everyone would be clean. ”

Su Lan smiled: "Didn't you follow Xia Qi recently?" I think it's better than him. ”

"Xia Qi is even worse." Xiao Tianxiang pursed her lips, "That person is disgusting, but he is stingy, he troubles me several times a day, and he only gives dozens of dollars, and he also has a small amount of money in it, so I don't want to pay attention to him." ”

"It's a pity that we can't help ourselves, otherwise how good it would be to go home?" Qin Yan sighed.

"Whoever said it wasn't, I would have regretted it a long time ago." Xiao Tianxiang was also very melancholy, "I have been learning the craft of grate since I was at home, and I have more than a dozen dollars to make a braid. In the evening, a group of friends go out shopping together, or go to the teahouse, or go to the restaurant, the big guy is laughing, so happy! ”

Cui Guan also said: "Our northern chaos, steamed buns, and three fresh noodles are cheap and delicious, whatever you want to eat, when I was a child, I was in the casino every day, someone won, and they are willing to ask for a hundred dollars, and sometimes they are willing to pay a hundred dollars, sometimes they are just a two, two, two, two Since my father and mother sold me to the troupe, although Jinling is prosperous, it has been pleasing guests all day long, making my ass hurt every day. ”

Su Lan frequently heard them mention the word buttocks, because she served Xu Zhu last night, she subconsciously touched her buttocks and said: "The person I saw you with recently is a lot older, and his appearance is really unpleasant. ”

"Not only does he have bad breath, but he also has a stench of nonsense." Xiao Tianxiang smiled at Cui Guan. (To be continued......) R1292
