Chapter 47: Where Did the Money Go?
"Bastard! Bastard! Xu Kun returned to the private house and roared loudly, just about to lift the table and break the chair.
Xu Sheng carefully hid at the door, not even daring to look.
Although it has been a few days since the feast in Xia Wei New Garden, Xu Kun's fire was planted at that time.
The reason why it broke out again today is because of an unexpected news.
Here's how it happened......
On the tenth day of the first month, before leaving Xia Wei Xu Garden, Xu Sheng was already very relieved.
As long as the guests in the garden dispersed, the matter of him collecting money and selling invitations would be revealed. It was only because there was still a trace of concern, which always involved uncomfortable in his heart, that Xu Sheng found an excuse to leave Xu Kun and go to the Winter Garden to have a look, and by the way, take care of a few old acquaintances not to fall behind.
I really don't know if I don't see it, and I'm shocked when I see it.
Xu Sheng happened to see Xu Cheng chatting warmly with people in the Winter Garden, and Xu Yuanzuo followed him closely, and seemed to be able to interject. Although the guys of the Xu family have always been superior, they still have to hug in front of these squires with heads and faces, how can there be such a disrespectful and inferior?
The more Xu Sheng looked at it, the more frightened he became, and he was restless when he went home that day, and only waited for the next day to dawn, and visited two or three old friends in a row before he figured out the things of "garden management" and "borrowing the garden".
Most of those old friends have business dealings with Xu Sheng, so naturally they will not hide it for Xu Yuanzuo. And because Xu Sheng and Xu Yuanzuo share the word "Xu", people don't have time to understand the grievances and grievances between Xu Sheng and Xu Yuanzuo, but they just say that they do have a place for the garden, and this garden is agreeable everywhere, and then look at Xu Sheng's face, saving a hundred taels is just a small meaning.
Xu Sheng only heard people say that he looked at his face, and he couldn't help but get angry, what did this matter to him!
He didn't get a penny!
"Brother Chen, have you already given him the silver?" Xu Sheng still didn't give up.
"Yes, I paid a deposit of ten taels at that time, and the young man brought someone to the door yesterday to collect the balance." Although Chen Zhubo is a Zhengjipin official of the imperial court, he still has to be careful in the face of the stewards of the Xu Mansion. He took out Xu Yuanzuo and issued two invoices, and said, "This is your new thing?" It's simpler than the Vende. β
Xu Sheng took a look at it, the palm-sized piece of paper, the rightmost side was the word "invoice", and then wrote it to prove that Xu's Real Estate Garden Management Bank had received a sum of ninety taels of silver. On the far right is the seal of the garden management bank and the name seal of the shopkeeper Xu Cheng, and the name of the manager Xu Yuanzuo is also written on the back - this is equivalent to the financial seal.
It's simple, but it's serious.
"Who didn't say it was for?" Xu Sheng's mind turned, and he said in his heart: If I put away all the invoices on the market, wouldn't it be able to prove that Xu Cheng and Xu Yuanzuo were greedy for public money?
He treated himself as his own, and he didn't believe that Xu Yuanzuo would issue the ticket as it was, thinking that this ticket would not match the account books. Otherwise, Xu Yuanzuo and Xu Cheng were busy in the middle for half a day, and after running forward, they would rely on wages to eat?
What kind of person is Chen Zhubo, he has already seen Xu Sheng's thoughts, and he didn't want to return the invoice at the moment, but said: "I entered their tea party for the sake of my brother's face." β
Xu Sheng was even more annoyed, and said: "I am the shopkeeper of the cloth shop, and I have nothing to do with this garden management company, and I can't get a penny of the silver you gave." But he can't see my face. β
Chen Zhubo was displeased when he heard this, and said secretly: Why is it that such an adult can't be obedient? I'm clearly courting you!
Xu Sheng can be a big shopkeeper and manage the Xu family's business, of course, he is not a disobedient person. It's just that he thought that he was threatened by a milky and dry boy, and the guests he "invited" were dragged into the bullshit "tea party", and he became a signboard for some reason...... How this is not annoying!
Once a person is angry and attacks his heart, he is naturally not far from losing his mind.
"I still have official business to do, please forgive me." Master Chen Bo took the teacup and said goodbye.
Xu Sheng was still jealous of Xu Yuanzuo, and he didn't notice Chen Zhubo's dissatisfaction, got up to say goodbye, and went to find someone else to verify the situation.
When he came down in a circle, two days passed.
In the past two days, he has become more and more frightened, because he has also heard about the purchase price written on the invitation.
Although several old friends who knew each other well did not do this kind of thing of sticking a knife in the back, they couldn't stand the invitation that someone had bought at a high price, and they had no friendship with Xu Sheng. After Xu Yuanzuo's bewitchment, thirty or fifty taels, or even fifty or seventy taels, dare to scribble up!
For them, since Xu Yuanzuo has made a big statement, why can't he write more? Could it be that Xu Yuanzuo can still find someone to resell to confront him?
Only Xu Sheng knew that Xu Yuanzuo didn't even think about verifying whether this amount was true, because this invitation with the price written on it was the shackles around his Xu Sheng's neck!
Xu Yuanzuo not only took him that day, but also wanted to continue to jam his neck in the future!
Xu Sheng is not a person who has never seen the wind and waves, but at this moment, he can't help but feel that his hands and feet are cold, and he only feels that he was originally a stupid and cute little milk cat, but suddenly poked out his claws, showed his fangs, and turned into a man-eating tiger!
Sedation!
Sedation!
Xu Shengqiang calmed himself down, and thought about it in his heart: Where will the garden management bank put it after collecting so much silver? Most of them are old houses in the county town. In the end, Xia Wei has a small population and a remote place, so Xu Yuanzuo, a strongman who robbed his house, will definitely not be able to stop him.
Since it's an old house, there's a way. Because there are only two people in the old house, both of whom are older. Xu Cheng has always been cautious, he didn't dare to recruit people rashly before, but now that he has these three thousand taels hidden, he doesn't dare to recruit people lightly. I just need to find an excuse to break Xu Cheng for a day and a half, send some reliable people in, and I will definitely be able to turn it out!
Who can tell if it was really stolen by someone or if it was stolen by the guards?
- I'm afraid that if the silver is placed next to the uncle, it will be difficult to do.
The train of thought that Xu Sheng had just opened was blocked again, and his heart suddenly closed tightly, and he couldn't breathe at all.
Just when Xu Sheng was thinking about how to sue Second Master SΓΉ, Second Master Kun accidentally broke the matter of silver.
Or maybe it's not an accident......
Just this morning, Xu Kun went to the cloth shop to inspect, which is also his daily habit. It's just that as soon as he entered the door, he felt that from the second shopkeeper to the guy, he was not as enthusiastic as before. When I looked closely, it turned out that my eldest brother Xu Fan was sitting in the back living room, and beckoned to him to let him in.
Xu Kun was vigilant, for fear that Xu Fan would come to force the palace. He entered the living room behind the counter and asked, "Why is the eldest brother here?" β
"Deposit some money on the ark." Xu Fan made a rare joke: "The so-called wealth is good, and the silver is buried in the cellar and moldy, so it is better to use it to make a living." β
Xu Kun was relieved at this time, changed his smile, and said, "Big brother should have been like this a long time ago." Our own family, the dividend is naturally higher. Seeing that Xu Sheng was not on the counter, he called the second shopkeeper over: "How is the uncle's interest calculated?" β
"Three cents for every two." The second shopkeeper said with a smile.
"Bastard!" Xu Kun's face changed: "This is my eldest brother, the head of the Xu family, how can he be the same as an outsider!" "The maximum bonus for an outsider is every two and a half cents, which is five percent of the interest. This three percent is actually low, Xu Kun doesn't want to offend Xu Fan on this small amount, so he naturally wants to have a seizure, so as to show his brotherly affection.
The second shopkeeper was about to argue, but he heard Xu Kun say: "Every two or seven cents of silver!" Shine on the highest. β
The second shopkeeper had to hang his head, said "yes", and hurriedly changed the documents.
Xu Fan just watched quietly, and when the new paperwork arrived, he said, "Thank you, second brother." β
Xu Kun sat down under Xu Fan, and said with a smile: "There is a way to go into battle as a father and son soldier, fight tiger brothers, and the eldest brother walks around in Shilin, and the cost of human affection is not small, so I should naturally help my younger brother." β
Xu Fan smiled and didn't say anything.
At this time, Xu Yuanzuo finished weighing the silver coins and walked in with the deed issued by the cloth shop. He was thinking about this original deposit slip all his mind, and suddenly looked up to see Xu Kun also sitting in the living room.
"Second master, you're here!" Xu Yuanzuo slapped people in the face, his heart was ruthless, but he could be gentle and enthusiastic on different occasions.
Xu Kun, a person who has seen the world, mistakenly thinks that Xu Yuanzuo is very close to him in an instant.
