Chapter 247: Five Children
Shrimp's mood seems to be on the verge of collapse.
Why are these people staring at them recently, first Boss Sun came to borrow silver, and then Chairman Cui came to borrow silver, but now it's good, this person is not here to see Yinzi, but to threaten them.
1,000,000 taels, all their cash money was lent to the Chamber of Commerce!
With such a tight schedule, it was impossible for them to raise so much silver in such a short time.
Tang Mian glanced at Xiami, all the accounts in the store were under his control recently.
It is estimated that Xiami knows very well in her heart that she can't take out so much silver now, so she is in such a hurry.
"Boss, I have 200,000 taels of silver here!" Tian Bo was the first to speak, he had followed Tang Mianshuang for so many years and saved a lot of silver. In addition, Tang Mian rewarded him from time to time, and accidentally saved so much money.
Although there is still a gap between 1 million taels of silver, it is better than nothing
。
"Master, I also have 150,000 taels of silver in my hand." Xiao Cui continued.
"I still have 300,000 taels left in my hand!" Qiao Sheng's voice suddenly sounded outside the house, and he walked into the house with a suitcase.
He regretted a little, why did he buy that batch of tea a few days ago, otherwise he would have been able to take out the 1 million taels of silver.
"Master, I have nearly 30,000 taels of silver in your hand, there are not many people, but I still have two shops, I can give them the title deed."
"Let's put away the silver first, I'll figure it out by myself, my mother seems to have some silver, I'll ask!" Tang Mian doesn't like to trouble people, especially acquaintances.
He knew that everyone had followed him for so many years, and all the money had been saved through hard work, so he said that Xiaocui's 150,000 taels of silver was the dowry she prepared for herself.
Tian Bo has been sponsoring many children to go to school this year. The money is impossible.
Recently, Qiao Sheng's business has become bigger and bigger, and those silver money is also used for turnover, and once there is a gap in funds, it will cause a similar situation to Boss Sun.
Not to mention you, he is a man who spends a lot of money, and he is the master who can't save money.
It was not easy for him to accumulate the 30,000 taels of silver.
She didn't want everyone to put all their savings into it for something.
"Master! (Owner!) When the four of them heard that Tang Mian didn't want their silver, they shouted one after another.
Tang Mian sneered: "The rabbit still has three holes, do you think that I, Tang Mian, can be the richest man in the Heavenly Country, relying on silver?" ”
She had something to say, and she smiled at everyone who didn't understand, and went directly to Bai Yunniang after going out.
On the day when Xiaobao reissued the full moon wine, Tang Mianjian put a box in Bai Yunniang.
After getting the box, he went back to his room, opened it with the key around his neck, and saw the familiar rooster bowl inside. It's very intimate.
"Rooster bowl, this is the last time I will use you, I want to save the lives of five children this time, I will try to earn back the 1 million taels in the future, and then continue to do good things, I hope you can help me......"
Halfway through the words, Tang Mianshuang threw the folded gold bars into it.
Fortunately, it was broad daylight, and even if the rooster bowl emitted bursts of golden light, no one noticed it.
In order to avoid their suspicion, Tang Mian quickened the movements in his hand.
When she reappeared in front of everyone after half a pillar of incense.
He was carrying a bag in his hand.
"What's in there?" The shrimp squeezed over curiously, only to feel that his hand sank, and he almost didn't fall to the ground.
He looked up and asked Tang Mian, seeing that she motioned for himself to look.
Without thinking much about it, he opened his mouth and took a look, frightened.
"Shrimp, what's that expression on your face? How many silver tickets are inside? Xiao Cui said and looked closer, and was also frightened.
Tian Bo saw that the expressions of the two of them were very wrong, and thought that they were deliberately playing tricks on him.
He walked forward quickly, took the burden from Xiami's hand and tossed it on his hand, it was really heavy.
Without thinking, he lowered his head and unwrapped his baggage. Several gold bars rolled out of the baggage and nearly hit his foot.
"Where did you get all these gold bars, owner?" His eyes widened unconsciously, his eyes full of disbelief.
So many gold bars added together are almost more than 1 million taels of silver, and now they can redeem the five children.
Tang Mian smiled at him, and did not explain the source of these gold bars, but asked them to hurry up and exchange these gold bars for silver tickets.
After all, the other party asked him to change people alone.
She couldn't hold so many gold bars.
At noon the next day, at the agreed time, Tang Mianshuang went to the designated place to pay the ransom.
In front of me is a long-abandoned temple, which has not been inhabited by anyone for many years.
The paths along the way have been overgrown with weeds of varying heights, making it even more desolate.
She had lived in the Imperial City for so long, and it was the first time she knew that there would be such a deserted place if she walked all the way north towards Nanbian Street.
Seeing that it was almost time to arrive, and the other party had not yet appeared, Tang Mian couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
"Hey...... I brought the silver, you quickly put the 5 children back, they are innocent......" Tang Mian shouted at the sky at the top of his throat for a long time, but there was no one around to answer.
Now she was no longer calm in her heart, quickly took out the ransom letter she received yesterday, and after checking the address written on it again, she wondered in her heart, that's right, he came according to the address given by the other party.
Isn't there any variable?
I don't know how long it has been, the sun has set in the west, dusk is approaching, and the yellow afterglow is sprinkled over the land, illuminating everything around it yellow.
At this moment, the scenery around the broken temple is extremely beautiful, but it is a pity that Tang Mian is not in the mood to appreciate it at all.
Just when she was wondering whether to go back, Tian Bo and the others came over, "Boss, go back quickly, the five children have already returned!" ”
What the? They've returned, but he hasn't paid the ransom yet!
Just when Tang Mian was wondering, Tian Bo took a step forward and said very firmly to him: "It's the real owner" The sons have returned, saying that they were rescued by a man in black. ”
Tian Bo briefly explained what happened, and seeing that Tang Mian didn't believe it, he saw that this place didn't look like a place to talk, so he urged her to go back with him.
Half an hour later, as soon as they got out of the carriage and walked into the backyard, Tang Mian heard the voices of several children.
She walked quickly to the study, pushed open the door and saw the five children standing in front of her unharmed, and the big stone hanging in her heart fell to the ground suddenly.
"Are you all alright? Did the other party hurt you? Tang Mian was a little excited, he rushed to the five children and dragged them one by one to check them carefully.
Several children also learned from Sister Xiaocui that Tang Mian raised 1 million taels of silver to teach people to save them, and they were also grateful to her.
Children like them from poor families are the least valuable thing about this life.
That's a full 1 million taels of silver, a sky-high amount that many people may not be able to earn in their lifetime, Tang Mian is willing to give up so much silver for them.
