Lin Danhong walked to the gate and moved his muscles and bones, as if he was going to fight with someone. Then he raised his hand and began to bang vigorously on the door, shouting, "Is there anyone, is there anyone!" but there was still no movement in the room. Later, she probably clapped her hands so hard that she simply kicked the door with her foot.

"Okay Danhong, there's probably no one in this house!" Sanqing saw that no one opened the door after all this was done, and he was worried that Lin Danhong would tear down the door in anger, so he hurriedly called out to her.

"Hey, I said a few of you, why don't you get in the way, go ahead!" Just when Lin Danhong reluctantly walked down the steps, someone suddenly shouted at them at the entrance of the alley.

The four people in the alley turned their heads to look at the entrance of the alley, and saw a middle-aged man with a beard on his face now there, staring at them. The man's face was ruddy, as if he had drunk wine.

Seeing that he was blocking the way, Sanqing hurriedly walked to the other end of the alley, the others followed him, the group moved slowly, and the bearded man also followed into the alley.

Sanqing and the others thought that this man was going to go through this alley to go elsewhere, but they didn't expect him to stop in front of the third door, go directly up the steps, and then take out the key and open the door. Just under the curious eyes of Sanqing and the others, he walked into the door, and then closed the door again.

"Him. Is he Zhang Ze?" Lin Danhong asked tentatively.

"Obviously!" Sanqing replied with a frown.

"Then what are you doing in a daze!" Lin Danhong said loudly, then rushed up the steps, rushed to the door, knocked on the door again, and used his hands and feet together, and the movements were much more than before.

"Who!" answered the door with the man with a beard.

"Open the door!" Lin Danhong shouted loudly.

"Who are you!" the door babbled open, and the man poked his head out and asked with a puzzled expression.

"Are you blind, standing here and knocking on the door for a long time, you entered the door directly as if you didn't see it?" Lin Danhong asked angrily.

"Oh, I thought you were knocking on another door!" said the man, with a nonchalant expression.

"Can you not talk about it? How far away can you see it wrong? And your door is more than a little different from the next door!" Lin Danhong didn't mean to let him go at all, and his tone was a little heavier than before.

"I said, who are you, who are you looking for here, in front of someone else's house, can you learn to respect your master?" The man did not feel angry or ashamed at all because of Lin Danhong's attitude and words, and still replied with a calm look.

"I'm sorry, my friend has a bad temper, there is no malice, we are from Chongqing, looking for a friend who lives here, his name is Zhang Ze!" Sanqing said softly.

"Oh, you're from Chongqing, Zhang Ze, I don't know, you're looking for the wrong one!" the man smiled slightly, said, and then immediately closed the door, catching Sanqing and the others off guard.

"Hey, this guy! I'm really angry with the old lady!" Seeing that the man actually closed the door again, Lin Danhong suddenly became angry, scolded and kicked the door again. However, the man in the house did not react in any way.

"You can't get out, if you don't come out, I'll burn this house down today!" Lin Danhong scolded loudly, and the door opened again in her scolding.

"Ladies and gentlemen, don't burn down my house, this is something left by my ancestors, it's gone in my hands, I don't have the face to go down to see them! I owe you money, I will pay it back as soon as possible!" After the door opened, the bearded man walked out and said this in a low voice.

This time, Sanqing and the others understood why he was like this, it turned out that he regarded Sanqing and his party as creditors who came to the door, so he pretended to be stupid.

"I think you have misunderstood, we are friends of Brother Lu Xiao, and he asked us to come here to find you!" In order to avoid the misunderstanding from deepening, Sanqing immediately opened his mouth to clarify the facts.

"Lu Xiao, oh, it turned out to be Brother Lu's friend! You said earlier, hurry, come into the house!" Listening to Sanqing's words, the bearded man was stunned for a moment, and then immediately became extremely enthusiastic, and after beckoning Sanqing and the others into the house, he glanced left and right in the alley, as if to see if there were other people, and then walked into the house and closed the door.

After walking into the house, Sanqing and the others were shocked, just as Sanqing thought, this house is very big, bigger than Lu Tingxuan's house in Hangzhou, although the buildings have to be a little old first, but you can still imagine how magnificent it was.

After entering the door, there is a front yard of no less than 100 square meters, willing to plant various plants, and a small pavilion for shade, and the place connected to the front yard is an independent hall.

"I said, how can you still collect debts from people when you live in such a big house!" Lin Danhong looked around, dumbfounded, and then couldn't help but ask Zhang Ze this.

"This house is the family business left by the ancestors, it has nothing to do with me, my family was the richest man in the local area during the Ming Dynasty, because it was a family that raised dogs, so this alley was named Dog Alley, to show that they could not forget their roots. The house in front of this door had not been built before, and the dog alley was ten meters wide! But as far as I can remember, this dog alley is like this. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the invasion of the Eight-Nation Alliance, my ancestor's business was hit hard, and gradually began to decline, and when the Japanese occupied the three eastern provinces, they wanted my grandfather to be a traitor, but his old man refused, and he was shot on the spot. My grandfather fled the Northeast with his whole family and did not return until the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. But when I came back, there was only the house left, and the days were getting worse day by day. When I came here, I followed Brother Lu for a few years a few years and made some money, and when I came back, I was thinking about repairing this old house, but I didn't think about it, and I owed a lot of debts, hey!" Zhang Ze saw Lin Danhong asking, so he said what he really thought, and let out a long sigh at the end.

"I see!" After listening to Zhang Ze's words, Lin Danhong said in a deep voice, suddenly feeling a little sympathetic to this bearded man. Originally, she thought he was a gambling debt.

"I originally wanted to go back to Chongqing to work with Brother Lu for a few more years, but when I went back, I couldn't find him, and later I heard that he had washed his hands. Zhang Ze added.

"He did wash his hands!" Sanqing replied in a deep voice.

"How much do you owe?" Lin Danhong asked again.

"More than 100,000!" Zhang Ze said with great sadness, with a desperate expression on his face.
