Feng Mansion, Feng Shiyuan smiled all over his face, and bowed to the person sitting opposite: "What kind of wind is it today, the supervisor has time to come to the cold house?" ”

The old man with white hair on the other side said, "The old man is here, I have something to tell you." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Director, please speak, but there are orders, I will do my best!"

The old man touched his beard under his chin and said lightly: "Don't hide it, the master of the family has been a little tight recently, and the house that I entrusted you to buy before really can't come up with the money, so this matter is over." ”

Feng Shiyuan was stunned: "Why did the director say that?" I have already agreed with the family that I will be able to enter the palace soon. ”

"That's it, don't buy the house." The old man shook his head again and again, took out a stack of banknotes from his arms, and handed it to Feng Shiyuan. "You give this money to that family, and you say that you disturbed a lot a few days ago, and talk about making amends."

Feng Shiyuan looked at the banknote in his hand, confused, and didn't know what to say for a while.

The old man stood up and said to Feng Shiyuan: "The old man still has something to do, take his leave!" ”

Feng Shiyuan hurriedly caught up and said, "It's rare for the director to come once, take a sip of tea, and sit for a while." ”

When he arrived at the door, seeing Feng Shiyuan in hot pursuit, the old man turned around, looked at Feng Shiyuan, and sighed: "You have always been respectful and careful in doing things, and you have helped me a lot." There is a sentence for you, which will be counted as a return. The bachelor once said that the official family has been keeping a close eye on the Jingshi Bank recently, and they want to recover the loans that were released a few days ago as soon as possible. I heard that you also borrowed a lot of money from there, and the old man advised you that if you want to be safe, you should honestly make up the money as soon as possible to repay it, the sooner the better, and later there will be changes! ”

After speaking, he turned around and faced the cold wind and walked quickly.

Feng Shiyuan stood at the door, looking at the back of the old man leaving, his face cloudy.

The person who came was the supervisor of Cheng Lin's family, a bachelor from Hanlin, and most of the people of their status had dealings with Feng Shiyuan. Some time ago, Cheng Lin fell in love with the house of the former privy deputy envoy Zhang Xun and wanted to buy it. Zhang Xun's family now has only one great-grandson who is just seven years old, and he is so poor that he has not eaten the last meal, and the only relative who is an official, Zhang Xian, is still in the field and cannot help. The family was so poor that the nurse who took care of the child wanted to sell the house. It's just that the house was given by Zhang Xun when he was developed, and it can't be bought and sold privately, and it must have the emperor's imperial treasure. Cheng Lin sent someone to find Feng Shiyuan and asked him to help find a way. Feng Shiyuan looked for an opportunity to let the nurse enter the palace, she knew the Empress Dowager Yang, as long as she arrived in the palace, it would not be difficult to get the imperial treasure. Now that he had eyebrows, he didn't expect Cheng Lin to send someone to say that he wouldn't buy it, which surprised Feng Shiyuan.

Standing in the cold wind for a long time, Feng Shiyuan slowly came back to his senses. looked at the money in his hand, and carefully touched the words that the old man said before leaving, and felt cold in his heart for a while.

Back in the room, Feng Shiyuan wrote a list and handed it to the main pipe in the house: "Prepare a table of banquets in the Iron Filings Building at night, remember to be in the back garden, and no outsiders are allowed to know." The people on this post, you go and inform them one by one, and let them come to the banquet in the evening. Tell them that they have to come, even if their father dies in the family, there are knives in the sky, and they are not allowed to be absent! ”

Seeing that Feng Shiyuan said solemnly, the supervisor did not dare to slack off, took the post, and respectfully agreed.

The wind rose in the night, and the withered branches of the trees whined, and came in through the cracks in the door, and pounced on the people like knives.

Feng Shiyuan looked at the people sitting on both sides coldly, and asked in a deep voice, "Are all the people together?" ”

A middle-aged man said: "Captain, only Li Pingyi from the military academy has not yet arrived, do you want to send someone to urge him?" ”

"Go and rush! Tell him that he hasn't been here for half an hour, and there will be no place for him in Kaifeng City in the future! ”

Someone next to him agreed, stood up, wrapped himself tightly, and walked towards the door.

As soon as I opened the door, the cold wind rushed in, and I couldn't help but shiver. As soon as he took a step, he bumped into someone coming from the shadows. Raising his head, he saw that Li Pingyi was looking for, and said busily: "Alas, why did Brother Li come?" I'm looking for you! ”

Li Pingyi entered the door, stomped his feet, and said, "Bad luck!" Riding a horse, I was injured by a branch broken by the wind on the road, and I was thrown on the road and fell hard! ”

As he spoke, he walked inside and saluted Feng Shiyuan: "The Taiwei came to us, I don't know what to order?" ”

Feng Shiyuan looked at Li Pingyi, then looked at the people present, and said in a deep voice: "I ask you if you have something to do today, I will make it clear before using wine, you must keep it in mind, and you must not be sloppy after you go back!" ”

Seeing that Feng Shiyuan's face was not good, he knew that the matter was not small, and he agreed together.

Feng Shiyuan said in a deep voice: "In the past few months, everyone has opened a lot of fictitious companies together, borrowed money from Jingshi Bank, and made a lot of money. Recently, I heard that the Kyoshi Bank was going to use the money, and I was in a hurry to get the money back. ”

A rough man said, "Not really! In the past, when I went to the Bank of Beijing to borrow money, it was very happy, how to say how good. In recent days, all the good things have been said, and even a child can't get a loan, it's really evil! ”

Someone shook his head and sighed: "When you do well, you can use the new loan money to pay off the interest on the old loan, and if you cut it off all at once, isn't it killing people!" I've heard that some people are going to fill in their families! ”

Seeing that everyone was talking, Feng Shiyuan said sharply: "Don't talk yet, listen to me honestly!" In this incident, I heard that the official family was in a hurry to use the money, and pressed the Jingshi Bank to put away the money. It was because I had borrowed too much money, so I just cut off the new loan at the beginning, and I didn't rush to pay off the old debt. When the old accounts are almost settled, we won't be so carefree! ”

Someone below asked, "What do you mean?" Could it be that if you borrow money from the Jingshi Bank, you will still arrest us in the yamen? ”

"Arrest the yamen? Hmph, that's light! If you don't pay the interest, or you don't repay the principal after the expiration date, it's common for someone who catches you to raid your home again! Feng Shiyuan's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. You can honestly listen to me, now that the Jingshi Bank has collected almost the old loans, and the rest of the loans that have not been paid off are either delayed in repaying the interest delay, or some people are ready to pay off. Hmph, does anyone dare to rely on the emperor's money? How many lives do you have! I'm saying this, no matter who you are, don't think about it! Smashing pots and selling iron, selling wives and daughters, you have to pay back the money honestly! Otherwise, not only will you be unlucky, but you will also be affected by us! ”

Someone cringed and said, "If it can be returned, who will drag it there?" Jingshi Bank is not emotional, as long as the interest is not paid after the day, it will be rolled and doubled, which one can stand it? But the quality library put the money out, and it was too happy to put it some time ago, no matter who put it. Now that I collect money, some people really don't have money, what should I do? As long as you can drag it out and slow it down, there is always a way to think about it. Blindly forced, how can you force money? ”

"What do you do? The people in the yamen still can't collect their debts? When is there such a thing! There is no money, there are so many hotels in Kaifeng City, let their wives and daughters sell them! If you don't have a wife or daughter, you can sell your children as well! If you don't have children, you will go to the old people in their house, or beat or scold, or starve for a few days, and leave it to you. As long as no one lives, everything is fine! ”
