Chapter 45: The Fat Sheep to the Slaughter

In the small courtyard, Song Yan was lying lazily on the Taishi chair, holding a cup of tea in his hand, looking ahead with interest.

Standing in front of him was Yan Danjue, still wearing the same men's civilian clothes he saw in the morning, but he didn't have the commanding momentum of the morning, but looked a little cramped.

Yan Danjue came alone, didn't bring Zhao Jinghua, and didn't even let the latter know that she found an opportunity to sneak to the Song Mansion.

"You...... How can you change your words?" Miss Yan obviously didn't ask for help, and she was silent for a long time before she could hold back such a sentence.

In fact, her usual emotional intelligence is not low to this extent, but Song Yan's gaze looking up and down really makes her feel at a loss.

She felt like a sow to the slaughter, tied to a tree with five flowers, while the butcher scanned up and down with a butcher's knife in his hand, observing where it would be better to get the knife down.

Song Yan smiled and said, "Miss Yan, are you trying to put the pot on my head, and now let me change my words?"

"It's a fact that you met Jingjing, and I didn't spread the ...... blindly" Yan Danjue refuted weakly, gritted his teeth and said: "I came up with the idea, and I also asked people to pass on the news...... It's none of Jingjing's business!"

"So, you're going to take it for her?" Song Yan put the teacup in his hand aside and said with a smile.

Yan Danjue couldn't help but raise his head: "Yes, what do you want, come to me!"

Yan Danjue is not stupid, she knows that with her own identity, few people dare to really do anything to her, otherwise the family behind her will not agree.

She was sure that this trip would be nothing more than a loss of face, but if Song Yan refused to change her words, it would be troublesome, she could only go back and ask her grandfather to come forward and help her best friend save her reputation.

At that time, whether it is to put pressure on the Song family or through other means, it is inevitable to lock her up at home and confine her for a period of time.

As if seeing her thoughts, Song Yan's gaze fell on her, gradually becoming indifferent and ruthless, as if it were a mountain.

Yan Danjue couldn't help but be stunned on the spot, as if the whole person was suddenly thrown into the ice and snow, and the clothes on her body had no effect at all, so cold that she couldn't even tremble.

It's just that inexplicably, Yan Danjue remembered that day in Baixiang Building...... He seems to be looking at Jingjing like this?

Under Song Yan's gaze, a jade pendant on Yan Danjue's chest suddenly lit up slightly, and the dark green brilliance flashed away, and Song Yan's gaze also retracted.

A smile appeared on Song Yan's face again, as if nothing had happened, he patted the table and said, "Since that's the case, then give the money." ”

"Give money?" Yan Danjue was stunned, she didn't expect that Song Yan suddenly turned the topic here.

"Change of mouth, shouldn't it?" Song Yan looked up at her and smiled.

Yan Danjue was stunned for a moment, and then smiled again, she realized that this must be the step given by Song Yan - sure enough, even a domineering person like Song Yan had to take care of the face of the imperial master.

Yan Danjue is actually not very willing to use his family background to oppress people, but this time for the sake of his girlfriend's reputation, he can't care so much.

"Well, how much money do you want?" Yan Danjue gradually relaxed, the problem that can be solved with money is really not a big problem in Yan Danjue's opinion.

Song Yan stood up at this time, rubbed his hands and said, "I'm going to open a shop recently, and the funding gap is quite large, why don't you sponsor 100,000 taels first?"

"Poof!"

Yan Danjue just breathed a sigh of relief, and was taking a sip of the tea brought by Yan'er, and suddenly it all squirted out: "You...... Why don't you go and grab it?!"

"I only have 1,000 taels of pocket money a month, where can I find you 100,000 taels?!"

"Hey, Miss Yan is really rich, and her pocket money is ten times that of mine. Song Yan couldn't help but roll his eyes and said.

What is the concept of 100,000 taels of silver? The entire Song family could not come up with such a large sum of cash, and unless they sold a large amount of assets, it was possible to get 100,000 taels.

As the account office of the Song family, Song Yan only has 30,000 or 40,000 taels of working capital here, and there is a large amount of inflow and outflow every day, which means that there are still a considerable part of it that cannot be used at will.

In this year, the residents of Shangjing have a monthly income of twenty or thirty yuan, which can already be regarded as a middle-class level. Since women are mostly part-time workers after marriage, their incomes are even lower, so the annual income of a family is about 500 taels, and the big family is counted separately.

And such a person can already live quite comfortably in Beijing, and there are still a large number of people who can't get this level of salary.

Song Yan, as an adult branch of the Song family, only paid a hundred taels of silver per month, but fortunately, he had saved some money for half a year after leaving home before, otherwise the money for studying printing would not be enough.

And if you want to open a martial arts cheats bookstore, you naturally need to invest a lot of money in the early stage. Of course, Song Yan himself had no money, and he didn't want the Song family to interfere, so he had already prepared the idea of "turning fate".

But at this time, Yan Danjue, a big fat sheep, was sent to the door, how could there be any reason not to slaughter?

I saw Song Yan say again: "100,000 taels is not good, 50,000 taels is not enough?

Yan Danjue couldn't help but glare: "Is this a matter of face? Even if it is the emperor, he can't let others give money for nothing!"

"When did I say send money? I mean...... You can borrow it. Song Yan said with a smile, and then without waiting for Yan Danjue to speak again, he said, "Of course, I also borrowed, we can set up a note." ”

"Is it really borrowing?" Yan Danjue looked at him suspiciously, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like a person who would repay the borrowed money.

"I'm the one who wants to open a shop, and if I can run a monk, I can't run a store, what are you afraid of? 50,000 taels, borrow it for a month, and this matter will be written off, and I will let the Song family clarify...... But don't count on interest. ”

There are 50,000 taels of start-up capital, which is enough for Song Yan to make an upfront investment, and as long as the plan goes well, one month is completely enough to recover the investment.

If it doesn't go well...... Anyway, the money is gone, so I'll owe it first.

"Deal!" Yan Danjue didn't know that Song Yan was fighting this idea, as if he was afraid that Song Yan would regret it, he immediately agreed.

Just borrowing 50,000 taels of silver for turnover, it is indeed not a difficult thing for her, and as for the interest, she didn't expect Song Yan to give it.

Next, Song Yan signed an IOU with Yan Danjue, agreeing to return 50,000 taels of silver after a month, and the money would be handed over to Song Yan within two days.

After finishing the business, Yan Danjue gradually regained his usual momentum, and after collecting the IOU, he looked at Song Yan and said, "Hey, aren't you afraid that I will regret it, and I won't give you money after you change your mind?"

Yan Danjue didn't actually plan to do this kind of thing, but the initiative was in Song Yan's hands from beginning to end, which made her want to find some ground.

Song Yan said with a smile: "What's there to be afraid of...... If you don't give money, I'll say that the previous change doesn't count, and it was you, Miss Yan, who came to the door and forced me to say so. ”

Yan Danjue's eyes couldn't help but widen, and Song Yan didn't look like it was over.

"By the way, are you afraid that after giving the money, I will change my mind like this?"

"Miss Yan, don't go, Miss Yan, come and drink tea when you have time......"

......

Just as Yan Danjue walked out of Song Yan's courtyard with a dark face, Song Zhe also hurriedly walked into another courtyard of the Song family.

This is the four-room Song family, the residence of Song Wenyou.

Song Wenyou is a relatively alternative figure in the previous generation of the Song family.

He is a little proficient in martial arts but not proficient, he has read the book of saints but has not participated in the imperial examination, and usually relies on his talent in business to subsidize some families, but his main business is ...... Be a staff member for someone.

"Fourth uncle, it is indeed the ...... of the Yan family who came to find Song Yan" Song Zhe came to Song Wenyou with a strange look on his face.

Song Wenyou was a middle-aged man with a mustache, but when he heard this, he just smiled and said, "Tell me, what do you think about it?"

Song Zhe couldn't help but feel refreshed, he was not willing to be a housekeeper at home for the rest of his life, after losing the power of the account office, Song Zhe was also looking for a way out, and Song Wenyou was his goal.

He knew that this fourth uncle was usually quite mysterious, and the clan only knew that he was a staff member of a certain big man, but he didn't know who he was doing things for.

Knowing that the fourth uncle was testing himself, Song Zhe thought for a while and said: "Song Yan humiliated the Zhao family like this, and poured dirty water on Zhao Jinghua, the eldest lady of the Yan family and Zhao Jinghua are friends, and it is likely that they came to him to settle accounts." ”

"Not true. Song Wenyou just shook his head and said, "Miss Yan is here, she is obviously cautious, but there is a hint of the teacher asking for sin?"

"It seems to be ......" Song Zhe couldn't help but scratch his head, "Fourth uncle, then I can't think of anything else." ”

Song Wenyou couldn't help but sigh and said, "You, you just think about people's hearts too simply...... In my opinion, the revival of the old relationship between Hongwen and Zhao Jinghua is true, and breaking with the Zhao family today is a good show!"

"Huh?"
