Chapter 137: Debts are piling up
Li Zhizhong came to the door with wine and vegetables to talk and friendship with Chen Jin, and his purpose was to borrow money. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info and Hou Qiang arrived later, because he was worried that Chen Jin would lend money to Li Zhizhong.
Since Chen Jin was released from prison, Li Zhizhong reached a reconciliation with him, and while taking the old homestead, he also stabilized his position as the patriarch of the family, as well as the position of the head of the village of Lianggouji Village. After that, Li Zhizhong's business expanded quickly and smoothly with the help of Chen Jin's reputation outside - the key is that Chen Jin, the famous gambling king of Yanyun, did not know about it, or rather, he pretended not to know, and it was completely Li Zhizhong's own wishful thinking outside.
Half a year ago, he invested in tripling the area and production scale of the second cement factory.
Almost everyone knows that Li Zhizhong is developed!
However, no one expected it......
In just half a year, Li Zhizhong is now in debt.
It is not known exactly how much money was borrowed and when the debt was owed. But in Lianggouji Village, the first to be borrowed was the head of his family's houses, and because of Li Zhizhong's prestige and his solid strength in the eyes of everyone, he almost did not hesitate to lend all his savings to Li Zhizhong; Then, Li Zhizhong privately borrowed money from people who had a good relationship in the village, such as Yang Erzhu, the director of the chicken farm, and others, when Li Zhizhong borrowed money, not only did he not have the slightest vigilance and confusion, but also felt that Li Zhizhong gave them faces, looked down on them, and there was light on his face, so he did not hesitate to lend money to Li Zhizhong, and at the same time considered Li Zhizhong's face, so as to keep the matter secret. However, as Li Zhizhong borrowed more and more money, paper, after all, could not contain the fire, especially in the countryside, women inevitably chattered a few words in private, and then everyone suddenly found that it turned out that Li Zhizhong had borrowed almost all the money of the whole village.
What does this mean?
Everyone panicked -- but at the same time, no one dared to be the first to jump out and openly pick out the matter and ask Li Zhizhong for money, because everyone was still a little jealous of Li Zhizhong's prestige, and they were afraid of annoying Li Zhizhong, and the money lent out was wasted.
Today's Lianggouji Village, under the seemingly calm appearance, is boiling hot oil, as long as a little mercury splashes in, it will fry the pot.
Who would have thought that the cement products factory is still thriving, its business is thriving, and it is constantly making money, but the boss Li Zhizhong is already in debt, and he has reached the point where he can't pay it off even if he goes bankrupt?
Hou Qiang lent Li Zhizhong 10,000 yuan, and after knowing that Li Zhizhong was borrowing money everywhere, he felt that something was wrong, and while he was flustered, he inevitably felt that this matter was full of incomprehensible abnormalities. So when he came to remind Chen Jin today not to lend Li Zhizhong money, Hou Qiang couldn't help but have doubts in his heart, and asked tentatively: "Brother Jin, I said something that shouldn't be said, Li Zhizhong has come to this point now...... Is it related to you? ”
"Qiangzi, what do you mean by that?" Chen Jin's face suddenly looked unhappy.
Hou Qiang was quite embarrassed, but he was a straightforward person who couldn't hide things in his heart, so he said straightforwardly: "I heard that Li Zhizhong is running business outside this year very smoothly, and it all depends on your fame to ......."
"Stop." Chen Jin frowned and said seriously: "I have nothing to do with Li Zhizhong's business, you can ask him." ”
"Yes, I know, Li Zhibin talked to me privately a few days ago, saying that Li Zhizhong was running business outside, and he mentioned your name at every turn, saying that he had a strong relationship with you and was small, so many people gave him face, but you actually don't know these things." Hou Qiang sighed and said, "I just think that Li Zhizhong won't be like this." ”
After hearing these words, Chen Jin immediately said angrily: "This bastard is actually using my name outside, should he borrow money in my name outside?" ”
Hou Qiang originally only suspected in his heart that Li Zhizhong had come to this point, and it might be Chen Jin's behind-the-scenes manipulation. Who would have thought that just mentioning it would bring up another problem that is likely to arise - Li Zhizhong, if he really went outside to borrow money in the name of Chen Jin......
In case, you really borrowed money!
Isn't that to let Chen Jin take the blame?
It's a mess!
The more Hou Qiang thought about it, the more worried he became, and in front of Chen Jin, he was really embarrassed to say anything more, so he hurriedly said goodbye and left.
After listening to his father's simple narration, Chen Zimo forgot his father's previous promise to him for a while, and said with a worried face: "Dad, what if Li Zhizhong really borrows money under your banner and someone else comes to the door?" ”
"Confront each other." Chen Jin said with a smile.
"This ......" Chen Zimo looked at his father's calm expression, and suddenly thought of the agreement between him and his father before, and couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
Chen Jin said: "Don't say anything, don't ask anything, you know, I know, you Uncle Bai know, you, just watch it......"
Chen Zimo was stunned, and there was a trace of uneasiness and sympathy in his heart.
Of course, he will not sympathize with Li Zhizhong, and he will not have the slightest sympathy for all the people of the old Li family to death. However, Li Zhizhong has now borrowed all over the village, and Hou Qiang has borrowed 10,000 yuan, after Li Zhizhong is completely defeated, won't Hou Qiang and even the money of the villagers be lost?
Now it is certain that all this was planned by my father behind the scenes.
In order to take revenge on Li Zhizhong and his entire family, he implicated Hou Qiang and many innocent villagers in the village......
Isn't that too much?
Chen Jin's company was very busy, and he returned to Yannan City with Bai Qilin and Jiang Peng in the evening of the same day.
In the courtyard, only Chen Zimo and Chen Ziman, the two godbrothers, were left - Chen Zimo was not good at socializing and chatting, and after getting the conditions promised by Mu Zhongqiu, he had already decided to go back to live in the courtyard, and the main reason was naturally to facilitate cultivation and study of magic; And Chen Ziman is even more silent and never takes the initiative to speak.
Every day, Chen Zimo was responsible for cooking, and Chen Ziman was responsible for burning the boiler and guarding the door...... There are very few conversations between the two brothers, and every short conversation is also mentioned by Chen Zimo. Although he was disgusted with his father and Bai Qilin that the current Chen Ziman could be regarded as a watchdog, he often saw Chen Ziman squatting lonely and indifferently at the door of the hall, the door of the study, and the door of the kitchen......
Chen Zimo will think of a folk saying: "A dog that bites does not bark." ”
Chen Zimo, who almost stayed at home, did not know that the undercurrent was rolling in the uneasy village, and soon spread a news, saying that because of the expansion of the production scale and factory area, the huge investment and the large supply to the outside world, so Li Zhizhong, who has more than a few million payments that have not been recovered, has negotiated with Chen Jin, who has made a comeback, in order to dispel the worries of all the people who lent him money, and Chen Jin will lend him 500,000 yuan in cash before the Spring Festival!
500,000 yuan, in fact, is not enough to repay the debts owed to the villagers, but at the end of the 90s of the last century, 500,000 yuan was too large a number for ordinary rural villagers, as if with 500,000 yuan, there was nothing that could not be done.
So seeing that the New Year was approaching, the villagers who were thinking about whether it was time to ask Li Zhizhong for money gradually calmed down.
Moreover, the villagers also admired Chen Cripple more and more!
That's the one who has the real ability!
Less than a year after he was released from prison, he made a comeback, bought a luxury car worth hundreds of thousands of yuan, and even bought a house in the city...... It is said that even Li Zhizhong has done such a big business outside this year, it is all stained with the light of other people's Chen lame!
Of course, it is inevitable that some villagers will privately talk about it, saying that Chen Cripple can earn so much money in such a short time, and he must be doing a business that violates the crime.
And in fact, the vast majority of people think so, too.
It's just that with the rapid development of social economy, social moral values have declined rapidly, and the vast majority of people don't care about how you make money......
Laugh at poverty, don't laugh at prostitutes!
In the blink of an eye, it was already the twenty-eighth day of the first month.
Many villagers who have been borrowed by Li Zhizhong, and even the heads of the houses of the old Li family, don't pay much attention to Li Zhizhong, who is busy with business outside all day and rarely returns to the village, but goes to the east of the village every day to see the courtyard gate of Chen's house, and Chen's lame Audi sedan is not there.
It was more than three o'clock in the afternoon.
When some villagers passed by Chen's house in the east of the village, they found the Audi car, and saw Chen Cripple with their own eyes, as well as the man who often followed him and was said to be a bodyguard, and most importantly, the fierce-looking driver with a meaty face, carrying a small suitcase, exactly the same as the box containing money in the movie!
The villager was so excited that he rushed towards the village.
Soon, the whole village knew that Chen Cripple had returned, and he had also got the money back......
Everyone came out of their homes and walked briskly to the east of the village - after a long time of waiting, worrying and expecting, they felt that Chen Jin had returned, and there was hope for their own money. But when they walked halfway, some of them walked to the door of Chen's house, and suddenly saved, why did they ask Chen Jin for money?
Although they realized that Chen Jin did not owe them money, everyone was finally pushed by expectations and worries to come to the east of the village hesitantly, looking at the black Audi sedan that sparkled in the warm winter sun from a distance outside the courtyard door.
When the villagers gather more and more, you look at me, and I will look at you again...... Only then did he suddenly realize that he became more and more frightened and worried.
Li Zhizhong, it turns out that he didn't just borrow money from your family, my family, and his family!
He, borrowed a lot of people's money!
Can he afford it?
