Liang Dacheng turned around and glanced at Zhu Deyun, who was full of surprise, and said with a slight teasing: "Brother Zhu, look at this...... Otherwise, I will let Brother Du transfer this shop to you, and the price will be the same as 1,500 taels of silver!"

Zhu Deyun's face was red and white for a while, and he didn't dare to answer with a smile.

A shop, no matter how much it is in a prime location, 1,000 taels of silver is already the upper limit, but now he has to give an extra 500 taels of silver, where is he willing to give it?

At first, he didn't believe it, thinking that there was fraud, so he took the contract with his own hands, and read it carefully from top to bottom, even the corners and corners. However, this contract is written in black on a white background, with clear terms, signed by both parties, and stamped with the seal of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce. So clearly understood, he couldn't help but believe it.

He smiled and returned the contract to Liang Dacheng, and smiled slightly awkwardly: "Brother Liang said that he was joking, how can I be embarrassed to win people's love for this shop under someone else's plate? Brother Du is really generous, I admire it!"

With that, he shook aside the crowd and walked away.

Everyone was worried about the 1,500 taels of silver, and they thought that they were not capable of being so generous, so they turned from the reproach of Fang Cai to complimenting Du Aniu, and slowly dispersed.

Seeing that the crowd was almost dispersed, Du Aniu wiped the sweat on his forehead and looked at Liang Dacheng gratefully: "Brother Liang, thank you for reaching out in time to help calm the situation, otherwise, I really can't resist it." ”

Liang Dacheng glanced at him: "I'm just running errands, if you want to thank you, thank the eldest lady." Fortunately, the eldest lady received the news in time and made a decision immediately. I asked me to make this note, and then I called you to sign it, and so on. Those people didn't dare to be presumptuous. ”

Du Aniu suddenly realized: "Yes, yes, how did I forget, the eldest lady is today's female Zhuge , I will definitely back up the generous gift and thank you in person." ”

Liang Dacheng saw that the matter was done, turned around to leave, suddenly remembered something, turned his head and said to Du Aniu: "The eldest lady said it." You put the contract away carefully, and if anyone else comes to make trouble, you can show it to them. And they got their taste and left. ”

Du Aniu was overjoyed: "The eldest lady has thought very thoroughly. ”

Liang Dacheng faintly felt that something was wrong. This Dua Niu did not seem to be an honest man, and the eldest lady gave in and let him keep the contract, and he was not sure what he would do with it. But. Since the eldest lady is not worried. He didn't know what to say, so he looked at Dua Niu, got into the carriage and left.

Dua Niu happily returned to the shop with the contract.

The situation in the audience fell into Gu Zhirong's eyes without any mistakes, and she frowned slightly: "There is really a contract." ”

Uncle Wang said: "Generally speaking, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, business transactions will conclude contracts and list terms. Clarifying the responsibilities and obligations of both parties also reduces future disputes. And for something particularly significant. I will also ask the Chamber of Commerce to come forward as a witness, and then stamp the seal of the Chamber of Commerce, so that there is no debt. ”

"Don't have to pay the bill?" Gu Zhirong raised his eyebrows.

Uncle Wang nodded and said, "Yes, this is the safest way." Even if a lawsuit starts in the future, the yamen summons all parties, and there is a contract with black on a white background, plus the seal of the chamber of commerce, there is no need for detailed review, and the case can be closed immediately. ”

Gu Zhirong immediately turned to Uncle Wang and said, "Uncle Wang, didn't you just say that this Dua Niu used to be just a pawn of a trader who walked the streets and alleys? Now he has this thousand five hundred taels of silver, where must he have made a fortune, you let people check his details to see where he got this thousand five hundred taels of silver? Or, this silver ......?"

Speaking of this, she paused, smiling, if it was really as she expected, then there was hope of retaking the shop.

Uncle Wang nodded and said, "Miss, please rest assured, the old man will do it." ”

At this time, Mingyue walked in from outside and told the news she had heard: "Miss, I just followed the carriage of the shop guy and came to Du Laozhuang in the north of the city, and found Du Ah Niu from this shop, and then Du Ah Niu got into the carriage and drove towards the Yuanning Hou Mansion. When they arrived at the Yuanning Hou Mansion, the guy and Du Aniu went in, and about a quarter of an hour later, Qing Ju beside the eldest lady walked out, but soon came back. When I came back, I also brought someone with me, I heard that it was Liang Dacheng from the Beijing Chamber of Commerce. After a while, the three of them came out together, and they returned directly to the Tianjinxiu Silk Village. ”

Gu Zhirong pondered for a while and asked, "Was there anything unusual when they came out?"

Mingyue thought for a while and said: "When they went in, these three people were empty-handed, and when they came out, the slave saw Liang Dacheng holding a brown paper envelope in his hand. ”

Gu Zhirong nodded and said: "That's it, presumably when the eldest lady gave the shop to Du Aniu, she didn't set up any written contract or anything like that, but now that she has called someone from the Chamber of Commerce, she must have signed a contract in a hurry." ”

Mingyue was surprised: "After putting up the shop, I didn't make a note, would that Dua Niu be so stupid?"

Gu Zhirong said with a smile: "Du Aniu is not stupid, his little eyes keep turning all the time, and he doesn't look like an honest person at all." But also, if you are an honest person, who is willing to do this for the eldest lady? I don't believe it, wait and see, the eldest lady will definitely suffer a loss this time. ”

"Suffer?" Mingyue was inexplicable. However, as long as you can make the eldest lady deflated, she is happier than anything else. She looked at Gu Zhirong excitedly, "Miss, do we need to do something?"

Gu Zhirong said his thoughts, Mingyue's eyes widened, and she looked at her young lady in disbelief. Uncle Wang looked at Gu Zhirong approvingly: "Miss's idea is good. ”

Juping Temple.

The eldest lady sat diagonally on the pear wood square couch, her back against the green forging ink pillow, and her face was very ugly.

Mother Cai stepped forward cautiously, took a cup of Sangju almond tea that had been cooled, and said softly: "Madam, drink a cup of tea to extinguish the fire." ”

The eldest lady picked up the pastel teacup, raised her head, and drank the whole cup of tea, and after drinking it, she felt better in her heart, Fang said, "You say, is that Dua Niu reliable?"

Cai's mother said: "Where does Madam want to go, it is your nephew's side, and he can be regarded as a relative, so he should be reliable." ”

The eldest lady always felt that something was wrong: "When I first saw the one called Dua Niu, I felt that this person was not honest, and he must be restless." Now that I've given him the contract, I don't know what will happen to me when the time comes. ”

Hearing what the eldest lady said, Cai's mother was also worried: "The slave maid is still thinking about this problem, it stands to reason that the shop, Mrs. just wants to borrow Du Aniu to transfer hands, and has no intention of asking for him at all." Besides, can he afford to be poor and sour? Don't say fifteen hundred taels of silver, he may not even be able to take out one hundred and fifty taels of silver. Therefore, when the slave maid saw that his wife called Master Liang of the Chamber of Commerce to come over, and signed the contract with that Dua Niu in person, the slave maid felt very uneasy in her heart. If, as Madame said, that Dua Niu is a non-duty, the contract is certain, and the shop is his, and if he really swallows the shop, but does not spend a penny, then we will not lose a lot?"

The eldest lady's face twitched several times, and she held her breath and said, "He dare?" (to be continued......)
