Chapter 142: Usury, trouble
Master Chen came over early in the morning, he was actually a little sorry for Li Yun in his heart, who would have thought that Aunt Zhao, who has always been honest and capable, could do such a thing, but things have come to this point, no matter how much he says, it is useless. And he didn't want the academy to become a miasma now. So he intends to take back the shop.
Li Yun and Li Fang are busy as usual, the tofu brain has been selling very well recently, and it is a good thing that business is good, but people are also busy, fortunately, Zhao Sheng is here during this time, and he does all the heavy work, and he does all the physical work.
Li Fang looked at Mr. Chen, who was still far away from the shop, and she couldn't help but greet her warmly, and Mr. Chen smiled at her and said, "Xiaofang, how is your shop's business lately?" ”
In fact, it is better for him to really speak, because Li Yun and the two sisters are real, and they have not done anything bad, will it not be good for him to do this?
"Master Chen, our business has been good recently, especially when my brother-in-law comes back and has another helper, this business is getting better and better. By the way, what are you here for? Li Fang said as she invited Master Chen into the shop to sit down.
Li Yun was not idle, admitting the white and tender tofu brain in one bowl after another, and the process of adding soup was handed over to Zhao Sheng, Zhao Sheng has also learned a lot of things recently, and the work of running the hall is naturally his.
"Xiao Yun, business is good." Master Chen smiled kindly at Li Yun.
"Godfather, look at what you said, didn't it all drag your blessings, have you eaten? Would you like to try our latest tofu brain first, shall you try it? See how it tastes? Li Yun said and served a bowl to Master Chen, in fact, the Wang family shop was like that, she was also worried in her heart, how long her shop could work here, after all, eating a food shop to eat a bad stomach is not a trivial matter, and it may also have an impact on the reputation of the academy, maybe this is not only a lesson for Master Chen, but also a dazzling test.
Master Chen waved his hand, it is not easy for people to sell some food, how can he eat it for nothing. "No, that's not good. You are in business, and this food is used to make money. I ......"
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Li Yun. "Godfather, what you said is not right, you recognize me as your daughter, do you still need to be polite to me with this bowl of tofu brain?"
She said and laughed, Master Chen really felt that it was not good to refuse something, so he couldn't help but speak: "That's okay, I'll taste it, it's really my blessing to have you as a girl." ”
Zhao Sheng didn't expect that there would be such a complicated relationship here.
"Sister Yun, when is your shop selling steamed buns? I see you've been selling this tofu brain lately, but you can't get enough of it? ”
Because she is about to be busy with farming, she can't leave the work in the field, so she doesn't have so much time to make steamed buns, and the matter of Wang's shop makes her feel a little uneasy.
Li Yun smiled faintly and said: "I've been too busy lately, maybe I won't make steamed buns for this time, and everyone will get tired of eating steamed buns every day, the price of making this kind of small cake is not high these days, and it tastes very delicious, don't you like it?" ”
"We can eat this kind of thing on weekdays, but when it's hot, we don't like to eat too greasy, the buns are just right, and we can't eat enough."
Li Yun thought for a while, and indeed it should be done according to the taste of most people, but she didn't know how long she could last here.
Chen Fuzi looked at Zhao Sheng and couldn't help but say, "You are Xiao Yun's father-in-law?" ”
Zhao Sheng nodded, "Master Chen, thank you for renting us the shop, we will have today." ”
After listening to Zhao Sheng's words, Chen Fuzi didn't know what to do to take back the shop.
Zhao Liang has been working on the construction site recently, but when he is not working, he likes to watch others gamble, but although he loves to play, he has never gambled, because it is indeed because he has no money.
"Zhao Liang, I see that you watch us play every day, don't you have itchy hands? Do you want to play two? If you don't have money, brother, I can lend it to you first, this is very simple, you see this fifty yuan, it may be doubled in a while, and then you are afraid that you will not have the money to pay back to my brother? The small man who was not thin was egging on Zhao Liang.
In fact, Zhao Liang watched here every day, his heart was itchy and his hands were itchy, and he couldn't control it with the instigation of others, "Then I'll take a hand, but what if I don't have money?" ”
"Zhao Liang, didn't I say it all, did I lend it to you?"
"But what if I lose and I don't have the money to pay you back?"
"Then just give it to me when you get paid."
Zhao Liang thought to himself that he would not lose money in this way, at most it would be fifty yuan, and if it was a big deal, he would move more bricks, and the money would be earned back, so he really didn't have to worry about anything.
"That's it, I'll play it!"
"Come on, come on, buy and leave, press big and small!"
"One, two, three, small!"
"Big Big ......"
"Oops, win again! Ha ha...... Sorry, these are mine! Zhao Liang looked at a person who was playing, won a lot of silver, he was suddenly excited, if he could win so much money, he would not have to work in the future, thinking about it, he felt very beautiful.
"Brother, do you see that? How easy it is to make money, we can only make more money by working hard all day long, you see how fast this money comes! ”
Zhao Liang didn't speak, but he felt that this was indeed a good way to make money.
"Guest officer, since you are here, it is better to play a few games, press big and small, fifty Wen pressure, if you win, it will be doubled! We are doing a loss-making business, so we hope that everyone will make more money. ”
Zhao Liang thought to himself, how could there be such a stupid person, why not make money if he could make money, but he didn't understand the rules here, so he asked the person next to him. "How do you play this? I won't! ”
"Quite simply, isn't there a size here? You have to pay attention to the sound of the dice to decide whether to put the silver here or there. Don't you often watch people play on weekdays? Why haven't you learned it until now? ”
Zhao Liang smiled wryly, so he slowly walked into the trap set by others. "I'll buy big!"
So everyone buys small, only he buys big, everyone looks at him with contempt, and even his friend is a bitter gourd face. "Zhao Liang, did you really decide to buy big?"
Zhao Liang nodded, ignoring everyone's opposition.
When the dice box was opened, everyone was stunned, Zhao Liang was stupid, he didn't expect that he had guessed correctly. "Five, six, six, big!"
"Zhao Liang, you are too powerful!"
Zhao Liang's eyes were straight, all the silver was his own, it felt like a dream, he was overjoyed in his heart, he had never seen so much silver, he just left if he wanted to, these silver were enough to take a while, but he was just about to leave, and others were not happy.
"If you want to go after winning money, where can there be such a cheap thing? We'll come again! Zhao Liang was pulled away.
Zhao Liang couldn't help but smile and said, "Cheng, I'm afraid that you won't even have pants when you lose!" "It's a merciless taunt, and it's a great irritation for people who lose money.
Zhao Liang won money again, but the first two were just luck, and the back was not good, he lost two in a row, but the more he won or lost, the heavier his heart became, but then he lost every time, he made a lot of money, but he lost a lot.
He was sweating profusely and sweating profusely, but seeing that his luck was getting worse and worse, he came directly: "I won't play anymore!" ”
He ridiculed others just now, and others are also dealing with him in the same way now, "Yo, didn't you just say that I don't want to lose and only have a pair of pants left?" Who the hell is it now? If you can't afford to lose, don't come to play, so as not to be embarrassed, you can play if you want to, kneel on the ground and beg for mercy, call this young master Grandpa, I will spare you! ”
Such an insult was difficult for Zhao Liang to accept, so he would not agree at all, "Come on, who is afraid of whom?" ”
"Do you still have money to play?"
Zhao Liang really has no money in his hands, but he really wants to make money now, so he just met an 'acquaintance' after earning a circle, this acquaintance is not someone else in a village, specializing in usury, known as Zhao Jinsan, he is very rich, if you don't pay back the money within the specified time, it will be a profit, and use the land and real estate as collateral.
Therefore, ordinary people do not dare to borrow usury unless they have to, first, they are afraid of the interest that they can't repay, and second, they are afraid of Zhao Jinsan's means of debt collection.
Since he can afford usury, he has people in the government. Belongs to a character that no one dares to provoke.
Whoever dares to hack her will definitely die a miserable death.
When Zhao Liang saw Zhao Jinsan, it was as if he saw hope, especially for people who had already developed a gambling addiction.
"Uncle Zhao, I really didn't expect to be able to see you here, do you have the silver on hand now? I want to borrow some? ”
Zhao Jinsan glanced at Zhao Liang and shook his head: "Zhao Liang is not that I look down on you, just like you, I am worried that you can't afford to pay back the money, the silver is there, but the maturity is a profit, one centimeter a day." After maturity, the principal and interest must be paid in one lump sum, otherwise it will ......"
"I naturally know this, you don't believe me, you don't believe my second brother, you look at how well the two of them do business, you look at my second brother's clothes, do you think our family can not afford to pay back your silver? I didn't borrow much, only thirty taels of silver! "He's really going to open his mouth and want to move back the cost.
"Thirty taels of silver is too little, don't borrow it! I, Zhao Jinsan, have at least one hundred taels of silver here, and I won't borrow this amount if I don't have it! Zhao Jinsan looked at Zhao Liang and said seriously.
Zhao Liang said ruthlessly: "Cheng, I'll borrow ......"
