Chapter 66: The Calculation Fails
Li Goudan was unwilling to give up his immediate interests, and once again spoke out and encouraged: "Everyone, don't listen to Gu Jinhao, the taro in the delicious building is deducted from the meat for two taels of silver and a bowl, do you think this taro will be cheap?" ”
Hearing this, the villagers talked about it one after another, and also asked Gu Jinxiu why he didn't give them the money from the extra sale.
Gu Jinxiu felt very uncomfortable, looked at the crowd with cold eyes, and was about to speak, when Uncle Wang stood up.
Uncle Wang said: "Don't listen to Li Goudan, what is Li Goudan's character, presumably the big guy should know very well, whether this taro is really valuable, the big guy should also be clear." Bother the big guys, stop forcing the village chief here. ”
When Uncle Wang's words fell, Uncle Li stood up and said, "The village chief has done a lot of things for everyone recently, and we should trust the village chief." ”
After listening to the words of the two, some people thought of what Gu Jinxiu did for them, and showed a look of shame, and some people crusaded against Li Goudan and didn't believe in Li Goudan's character......
Gu Jinxiu smiled gratefully at the two of them, it was just a small favor at the beginning, these two always remembered that she shouldn't all deny the villagers of the three surnamed villages, they were still very cute!
And Li Goudan saw that the villagers who had already agreed were biased towards Gu Jinxiu, and he was unwilling to give up, so he hurriedly said: "Don't believe him, the eldest son of the Gu patriarch can testify that Gu Jinhao deceived the big guy." ”
Immediately afterwards, Aunt Gu's family embarrassed them in front of everyone because of Gu Jinxiu's rescue of the Lin family, and at the same time, the silver in their hands also flew away.
Therefore, they were also helping on the sidelines, thinking that Gu Jinxiu must come up with money today!
After Gu Jinxiu heard this, she squinted at the words and deeds of Aunt Gu Qi's family, and always felt that she had forgotten something, but she could never remember it.
Shaking his head slightly, Gu Jinxiu put down the matter for the time being, looked around, did not find the figure of Gu Qingyun's family, and turned his head to look at the villagers who were discussing whether to have taro and radishes.
She thought to herself: "I gave the taro and radish to these villagers today, and they didn't sell them." Finally, these villagers may come to her again!
So what about her?
Thinking about it, Gu Jinxiu put away her schadenfreude thoughts.
Gu Jinxiu said: "Everyone, you can go and ask the shopkeeper Zhao of the delicious building, did I sell the taro and radish at a high price?" If so, give me twenty-two and fifty dollars, and I will return it in its original form. ”
Li Goudan urged: "Don't rub it in, let's agree quickly!" After this village, there is no such shop, and I don't care if someone comes to me to sell taro in the future. ”
Originally, some people were already thinking about inquiring about the situation, but after listening to Li Goudan's urging, they immediately decided to ask for taro.
Seeing this situation, Gu Jinxiu tried to make a last effort, if the villagers still didn't listen, then if there was a problem in the future, don't come to her.
Gu Jinxiu glanced at Li Goudan and proposed: "Now the big guys can't get together twenty two hundred and fifty wen at once, Li Goudan or you give me twenty two hundred and fifty wen, I will hand over the taro and radish to you, and when you sell the money, you will share it with the villagers you owe money, and you will be exempted from the grocery store you owe me, what do you think?" ”
Li Goudan shouted: "This thing is originally mine, why should I pay all this money?" ”
Gu Jinxiu was not annoyed after hearing this, and calmly smiled and recounted the ownership of taro and radish.
"This thing was indeed yours at first, and when you sold the grocery store and the goods in it to someone else, I bought them for fifty yuan from someone else's hands."
"Then I resold it to Meiwei Lou and got a hundred taels of silver, plus a small half of the silver that my uncle compensated my family, to make up twenty taels of silver. I helped you pay off the debts of the villagers, shouldn't you Li Goudan pay off the money? ”
After listening to Gu Jinxiu's words, a reasonable person figured out this.
Although the delicious building can sell expensive dishes, that is the ability of other cooks.
It's not about taro.
The taro that they dislike with mud legs can be worth a few dollars.
The village chief selflessly took out his own silver, and they didn't thank it, but they were still clamoring for a share of the silver, which was not authentic.
So, the people who want to understand and the people around them say this.
Then, one pass two, two passes three......
Except for very few people who are greedy for money who want taro.
Most people didn't ask Gu Jinxiu to return the taro, but asked Li Goudan to pay for the taro and radish.
The reversal of things made it difficult for Li Goudan to ride a tiger, and when he was in a dilemma, he wanted to escape, but was blocked by the villagers.
Gu Jinxiu walked towards Li Goudan and made Li Goudan feel full of malice.
"Li dog, you can't make trouble, now you want to run, how can there be such a good thing!"
Gu Jinxiu smiled and said, "Do you remember that Li Goudan still owes me a grocery store." ”
The villagers said they remembered.
Gu Jinxiu glanced at Patriarch Li, who had been watching coldly in the crowd: "Patriarch Li, do I want to let Li Goudan go to my house to work?" ”
Patriarch Li wanted to refuse, but when he saw that the villagers were helping Gu Jinxiu, he ordered: "Li Goudan will go to the village chief's house to work to pay off the debt from tomorrow, and if you escape, I will remove you." ”
Seeing that Li Goudan was unconvinced to deal with the matter, Gu Jinxiu bowed to Patriarch Li and said, "Patriarch Li really understands righteousness, and Jin Hao admires it." ”
After speaking, Gu Jinxiu didn't wait for Patriarch Li's response, Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Aunt Gu's family and Li Goudan walking away, she shook her head slightly, turned to the villagers and said, "Now we continue to pay the rent." ”
After finishing the rent, Gu Jinxiu saw that the villagers had not dispersed, and reminded: "The big guy will go back tonight to discuss with his family, and I will go to your house early tomorrow morning to register the person who repairs the ditch." ”
After hearing this, the villagers complained that the county order was to build a ditch at this time and delay the spring ploughing, and the words were full of dissatisfaction with Li Mojin, and they dispersed.
Gu Jinxiu listened to the villagers say bad things about Li Mojin, she didn't go to help him explain, just smiled.
Seeing the villagers disperse, Gu Jinxiu saw the Lin family on the side before thinking of what he had forgotten.
Gu Jinxiu patted her forehead in annoyance, and said to the Lin family apologetically: "I'm sorry for the Lin family, I forgot about Xiaoyan when I was busy, and I will accompany you to Aunt Qi's house to find Xiaoyan now." ”
Seeing that it was getting late, Lin thought that Gu Jinxiu hadn't eaten for a day.
Then Lin refused: "I'll go by myself, if I can't find Xiaoyan, the village chief, you will come back tomorrow to help me." ”
Gu Jinxiu asked, "Can you?" ”
Lin nodded, said goodbye to Gu Jinxiu, and then walked to Aunt Gu Qi's house.
Gu Jinxiu thought that the Lin family would have to support the portal alone in the future, and now was an opportunity to exercise.
So, instead of following, she turned and went home.
Back at home, after Gu Jinxiu had dinner, she discussed with the He family and asked her to continue to hire Lin's mother and daughter.
He didn't want to make the relationship with Gu Jinxiu very stiff.
She agreed.
After discussing properly, Gu Jinxiu went back to the room to rest.
At the same time, Aunt Gu Qi's family was discussing who would repair the ditch.
