Yan Yu turned over and dismounted, and the four people behind him also turned over and dismounted.

One of them took the horse rope from Yan Yu's hand and quickly tied it to the horse bolt next to the small door.

Yan Yu took out the prepared prayer note directly from his bosom and knocked on the small door.

The side door of the Dong family was only half open, and a Xiao Si who looked like he was in his twenties was sitting on a bench at the moment, dozing off with his feet against the door frame.

Xiao Si's head was little by little, and he heard a knock on the door, and a spirit almost didn't fall off the stool.

He opened his eyes, raised his head, looked at the comer, and said unhappily, "What are you doing?" Go, go, this is not a place where all cats and dogs can come. “

Yan Yu smiled and shook the prayer note in his hand.

The porter Xiao Si didn't answer, so he said: "If you want to see my master, you can't pay a visit, you have to have an invitation from my master." ”

Yan Yu smiled and looked at the porter without speaking.

And the four big men with big shoulders and round waists behind him laughed.

I only heard one person: "This Dong family is really funny, have you ever seen the next post of the person who owes money to the debtor?" ”

One of the other three chimed in: "Paying off debts is a matter of course, I have little knowledge, this is the first time I have encountered such a thing, I don't know if anyone else has seen it." ”

After saying that, the four of them laughed, and Yan Yu still had that shy smile on his face.

Yan Yu didn't stop it, nor did he explain too much, just looked at the porter Xiao Si and handed over the prayer post.

When the porter Xiao Si heard the deafening laughter, he shuddered in fright, hurriedly got up, snatched the post, and closed the side door.

He stood at the door and shouted, "Wait, I'll go to my housekeeper." “

The heart said, "What if this thing is fake?" But what if it's true? “

He thought about it and decided that it would be better to find the blessing steward first.

Yan Yu, who was locked out of the door, sneered: "Let's go, let's wait over there." “

If it had been another family, they would have broken in a long time ago, but this is the Dong family, they can't go straight in, and they can't stay at the small door.

Fortunately, Yan Yu is only worried about other debtors coming here to ask for debts, and he is not worried that the Dong family will run away.

While Yan Yu was waiting, he looked at the way he came, and he was also waiting for Mu Zhai's people to send the IOU to the painting.

Soon, the person who delivered the contract arrived.

The man whispered: "This is Dong Wenyi's painting contract, Shopkeeper Jiang asked me to tell you that Dong Wenyi does owe others 80,000 taels of foreign debts, saying that there are 40,000 taels in Zuixianglou, and he asked you to get our silver back today." ”

Yan Yu nodded and said, "Go back and tell Shopkeeper Jiang, I will do my best in this matter, can those creditors come to the Dong family?" ”

Yan Yu was worried that other families had already come to the door, or were also on the way, but the secret letter was written to tell them to hurry up.

The man whispered: "I was about to say this to you just now, when I went out of the city, I saw that the carriage of Zuixianglou had come this way, but the speed was not fast, and it was estimated that it would take more than two hours to come." ”

Yan Yu knew that the matter was urgent, and hurriedly said: "I have to trouble you, do something on the road, drag them down, this Dong family is a big family, I'm afraid that it is a set of rules, and it will take a while, don't let us see the master of the Dong family, and the people from the drunken Xianglou also said." ”

The man nodded, said "Don't worry," and turned to mount.

Yan Yu said: "Wait, you two can go over with you, you can also do a favor or something." “

The man said: "Yes, let's make some roadblocks on the road, there are many people to do things." “

In this way, two of the four people brought by Yan Yu left.

Xiao Si of the porter took Yan Yu's post and ran to the courtyard of Dong Shengxing's study.

Laifu is doing things by Dong Shengxing's side, and he is still working in Dong Shengxing's outer study yard after being a steward.

It's just that Rifle is not there today.

The porter Xiao Si trotted all the way into the yard.

It happened to collide with the big butler who came out of the outer study.

The chief housekeeper was in the study with the account manager Li to talk to Dong Shengxing in the study, and what they discussed was the matter of the Dong family's flowing silver.

Sixty thousand taels of cash is also a lot for Dong Shengxing, and the Dong family's annual expenses in the house are only more than 10,000 taels.

Next year, Dong Shengxing's transfer will be implemented, and now the 100,000 taels of cash on the counter are used by Dong Shengxing up and down, and they must quickly transfer silver from other places to make up for it.

Feng's from the inside out, counting the various industries of shops and granges, totaled more than 30,000 taels of silver.

She didn't take back the silver she put in the seal this year, otherwise she would have more than 10,000 taels of silver.

Feng Shi spent a lot of effort to purchase these properties, but now that all the one-time ones are gone, she can't take care of Dong Wenyi, and she faints directly from crying.

Dong Shengxing took it very reasonably, if it weren't for Feng Shi saying that he wanted to mention Dong Wenyi to return the silver, Dong Shengxing would not have posted more than 10,000 taels of silver at this moment.

And her shops and granges can still be sold at a price in previous years, but there are too many people selling shops and farms this year, except for the good location, the others may not be sold.

Dong Shengxing was very angry about this, and asked the chief housekeeper to quickly sell Feng's things and add a vacancy.

The chief housekeeper also knew the market outside, and he and Steward Li were also very depressed after receiving such a hot job.

At this moment, seeing such a short-sighted subordinate, he directly scolded: "What kind of place is this, dare to run here and go to get the board yourself." ”

Xiao Si, who was guarding the door, saw that it was the big housekeeper, and his legs and stomach were weak, and he knelt directly on the ground, he saw the worship post in his hand, and said: "The big housekeeper, the slave has an urgent matter to find the blessing of the steward." ”

The chief housekeeper raised his forehead and said: "There is something at home for the butler, and if he is not here today, you will come to him tomorrow." The board will be picked up by yourself. ”

The chief butler said to Steward Li: "These minions, when they see that you are busy, they will make trouble. ”

The janitor Xiao Si cried and scolded the five people at the door.

In the end, he knelt down and walked up to the big butler, and said stubbornly: "It's all the minions' fault, the small ones are in the concierge, if it weren't for the debts who came to the door, the minions wouldn't have lost their proportions." ”

The chief butler was stunned for a moment and exclaimed, "What did you say?" Is the debtor coming to the door? “

The porter Xiao Si hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, the five debtors have come to the door, if they don't really ask for debts, who dares to find trouble with our Dong family?" “

The chief butler agrees with this person's words, if it is not true, it will be fatal.

He looked at the bookkeeper and said, "Does the master have any arrears?" ”

The bookkeeper was also stunned, and hurriedly shook his head and said, "No." ”

The porter Xiao Si held up the post and said, "This is a post sent by that person." “

The big housekeeper took a step forward, took the worship post and opened it to see, it was written very clearly, this was Mu Zhai's worship post, and he came to Dong's house to ask Dong Shiye Dong Wenyi to owe Mu Zhai a loan of 20,000 taels.

The chief butler gasped, they were still thinking about the silver just now, and they came to ask for the silver again.

He believes that this is true, whether it is Mu Zhai or not, but anyone who cheats will never dare to go to the Dong family to ask for debts.
