Yu Zhen saw that Zhou Yun directly took out all the silver tickets, and he didn't care about where his silver came from, so he turned around and discussed with Huang Shanyu: "What now?" Do we have any silver to use? ”

Huang Shanyu originally just wanted that after Yu Zhen built a commercial city, he could ask for two shops in it to do some business, but now seeing that the land price has been speculated so high, he naturally doesn't want to follow Yu Zhen to take risks, so he shook his head and said: "The silver has been used up, and we have also taken six pieces of land, which is almost enough." ”

Yu Zhen looked resolute: "No, I must take the seventh piece of land, only with seven pieces of land can I build a commercial city." Otherwise, a small piece of land alone can only be used for limited use, and only a small shop can be built, which is only worth 70,000 or 80,000 taels of silver at most according to the normal valuation. We have already spent an extra 600,000 taels of silver on the six plots of land in front of us, do we still care about the last 300,000 taels? This last piece of land must not be lost, even if it is won at a high price, at most it will take an extra year or two to return to the capital cycle, but if I don't take it, the cost of the six pieces of land in my hand will take at least ten years to recover it. ”

Huang Shanyu was a little helpless: "Then what now?" We are short of a hundred thousand taels of silver. ”

Yu Zhen looked around: "Now there is no other way but to borrow, fortunately, I asked Li Hu of the Green Tiger Gang to wait here with a silver ticket in advance, I didn't expect it to come in handy now." ”

Yu Zhen walked up to a person and said, "Gang Master Li, I'll make a long story short when time is pressing, is there any 100,000 taels of silver?" I want it now. ”

The person Yu Zhen talked to was called Li Hu, a native of Kokura City, who did business with two companions in the early years, robbed houses, collected protection money, etc., and later founded the Green Tiger Gang, specializing in lending money.

Li Hu also saw the scene that happened just now clearly, and knew that Yu Zhen was in a hurry to use the money now, so the lion opened his mouth and said: "Yes, there are more, but the monthly interest is 30%, Master Yu, do you still want to borrow?" ”

The monthly interest rate is 30%, and the interest of 100,000 taels of silver is 30,000 taels for one month. Yu Zhen said a little annoyed: "Gang Master Li, you are a little ruthless, usually you give it to others with a monthly interest of 10%, but I will have a monthly interest of 30%?" ”

Li Hu smiled and said: "Master Yu, don't get me wrong, it's not that I want to take advantage of the danger today, 100,000 taels of silver is nothing to you, but for me, this is not a small amount, I still have to borrow someone else's, isn't there a cost in the middle?" You see that this time is not much, if you agree, I will give you a silver ticket now, if you don't agree, I can't help it. ”

Yu Zhen had no other way but to agree first, and then find a way to see how to repay the loan shark first.

"Brother Yun, I have to decide on this last piece of land today, and I will pay 300,000 taels of silver." Yu Zhen auctioned the final price.

Seeing that Yu Zhen's price of 300,000 taels of silver was auctioned, a stone hanging in Zhou Yun's heart also fell to the ground, but he still pretended to have an ugly expression on his face and said: "Okay, Brother Yu, you are really arrogant, Zhou is planted today." ”

After speaking, he left 400,000 taels of silver tickets, did not greet others, took the title deed and left, while Yu Zhen excitedly accepted the congratulations of the surrounding businessmen.

Back at Zhou's Mansion, Shi Luosheng was already waiting inside, Zhou Yun first told Shi Luosheng about the afternoon bidding, and then said with a smile: "Now we have completed the first step as planned, and we have also won two of the nine pieces of land, let Yu Zhen be happy in the past two days, and we will release the news as planned in three days, and then I will see if Yu Zhen can still laugh." ”

Shi Luosheng also smiled happily: "In the next period of time, master, you have to resist the pressure, I don't think there will be fewer people who come to the door to scold you, maybe there will be people who come to the door, you have to pay attention to safety, just go through this period of time, if it doesn't work, you can go out for a few days." ”

Zhou Yun was amused by Shi Luosheng's words: "I'm this age, am I still afraid of people scolding me, as long as my Zhou family is fine, these are nothing." ”

Yu Zhen's sky-high price auction of the land in the west of the city has spread to every corner of Kokura City in the past two days, while everyone is envious of Yu Zhen's wealth, there is an explosive news that the Zhou family plans to build two Yizhuang on the two pieces of land newly auctioned, for the nearby coffins can not afford to buy mortuary mortuals.

As soon as the news came out, the whole city was blown up, and those who had just moved to the west of the city, as well as those who had already purchased properties in the west of the city, scolded on the spot: "What's the matter with the Zhou family, the house I just bought, their family is going to build a Yizhuang, the west of the city is not big, and two Yizhuang are being built at once, isn't this going to turn the west of the city into a ghost town?" Who would dare to move in. ”

"That's right, I also just bought a shop in the west of the city, the Zhou family did this, how can there be business in the future, let's go to him to theorize together."

Of course, there are some smart people who guessed Zhou Yun's intentions at once, isn't this trick aimed at the seven pieces of land that Yu Jiaxin photographed. If this news is true, the land is worthless. Not to mention building a commercial city next to Yizhuang, that is, repairing private houses, ordinary people will not live there, and the Yu family is afraid that they will be unlucky this time.

The news that the Zhou family was going to repair Yizhuang also quickly reached Yu Zhen's ears, Yu Zhen was furious after hearing this, and dropped a few cups in a row, and after a fire was over, he said to Yu Shaoshang beside him: "Zhou Yun, this old horseman, is really playing yin, you go to Song Taishou now, no matter how much it costs, let Song Xun come forward to stop Zhou Yun from building Yizhuang in the west of the city." ”

Yu Shaoshang received his father's order, knowing that this was related to the life and death of the Yu family, so he didn't dare to slack off, so he took the silver from the account room and ran towards the Taishou Mansion. But in less than an hour, Yu Shaoshang came back dejectedly, and when he entered the door, he said to Zhen: "Dad, the child went to the Taishou Mansion, but he didn't even see the face of the Taishou Lord, it was the child received by the county minister." As soon as I explained my intentions, the county minister said that the Zhou family was going to build Yizhuang Song Taishou already knew, he said that although this matter was unreasonable, but the Zhou family did not violate any regulations, and the two pieces of land are now the Zhou family, they can build whatever they want, as long as it is not used to rebel, their government has no right, and will not interfere with their behavior of building Yizhuang. ”

After hearing this, Yu Zhen felt that his eyes were dark, and he fell on the chair. Yu Shaoshang hurriedly stepped forward to support Yu Zhen: "Dad, Zhou Yun won't really build Yizhuang, that is the land he bought for 400,000 taels of silver, and now he is repairing Yizhuang, isn't this equivalent to throwing the silver into the river?" ”

Yu Zhen sighed: "Of course Zhou Yun won't really cultivate Yizhuang, his purpose is to make the land in my hands worthless, but his poisonous plan is very powerful, and it just hit my vital point, and the land is now in his hands, whether he cultivates it or not is not a matter of words." ”

Yu Shaoshang also understood at this time, and scolded: "Zhou Yun, the old horseman, tied all our silver to the seven pieces of land at once, and we still owe the Huang family 400,000 taels of silver and Li Hu's 100,000 taels of usury. Although the cost of the Zhou family to acquire the land is similar to ours, the money spent is their own, and there is no pressure to repay the loan. His two pieces of land do not move for a day, and we dare not start construction, if we start to build a commercial city first, he will really build Yizhuang. We just want to sell the land at a loss now, except for Zhou Yun, no one else dares to take over, this plan is too vicious. ”

"Master, young master, Master Huang Shanyu Huang and Li Hu Li are here, and they are waiting for the master in the front hall." Just when the father and son were worried, the housekeeper Yu Fu walked in and said to Zhendao.

Yu Zhen's eyes were black again: "It's really a disaster, these two people must have heard the news from the outside and came to the door to collect debts, I will send them away first, and then figure out how to deal with Zhou Yun." ”

Li Hu saw Yu Zhen walk out, and took the lead in asking: "Master Yu, the news outside has spread, I won't go around the circle and say it directly, now the Zhou family is going to build a Yizhuang in the west of the city, and your land is worthless, but the silver you owe me is not a tael, I also know your situation now, it stands to reason that I shouldn't come to the door now, but I'm really worried, I'm afraid that I didn't earn the interest, but put the principal in." Master Yu, tell us what you think now, so that we can also rest assured. ”

Huang Shanyu was a little polite: "Brother Yu, although Gang Leader Li said it directly, but I almost mean that, I have lent you all my net worth, if those lands are so yellow, how can I explain to the people in the family, what countermeasures does Brother Yu have now, let's discuss and discuss together to see if it can work?" ”

Yu Zhen said helplessly: "Don't be impatient, with the knowledge of the two of you, you also know that it is impossible for Zhou Yun to really build a Yizhuang in the west of the city, the reason for this is nothing more than to force me to come to the door to negotiate, I will go to Zhou's house early tomorrow morning to see what Zhou Yun's attitude is, and then give the two of you an answer, do you think it's okay?" ”

Li Hu was not embarrassed by Yu Zhen: "Okay, Master Yu, I will come to the door again in three days, if there is no next step in the matter, you also know which line of work I do, don't blame me for being polite and say goodbye." After speaking, he didn't wait for Yu Zhen to reply, turned around and slammed the door.

Huang Shanyu also sighed and said: "Brother Yu, I understand your current situation, but I also have to think about my family, three days later, I hope Brother Yu can have a way to deal with it, and the marriage between the little girl and Shaoshang will be delayed for the time being, it is estimated that Brother Yu is not in the mood to do this marriage now." ”

Yu Zhen had no choice but to say: "Everything is according to what Brother Huang said, the wedding is postponed for the time being, and I will give you another answer in three days." ”

Looking at the backs of Huang Shanyu and Li Hu leaving, Yu Zhen felt sad in his heart: "I think I, Yu Zhen, started from scratch to this day, is it really going to be planted in Zhou Yun's hands this time?" ”
