Chapter 214: Breaking the siege of Hao's shopkeeper
Bai Zhi saw that he was still quite hard, no wonder he dared to come out to collect the account, I am afraid that he did not encounter hard stubble.
"I've been watching there for a long time, it's obvious that you are bullying people, why do you suddenly want to temporarily increase the interest on people, I'm afraid that what you want is not that money, right?" She pierced the man's mind with a few words.
I saw the person who collected the debt: "Hey...... I said that you little girl, where do you come from and where you stay, and it is not your turn to take care of the master's affairs. β
"This girl, I know you also want to help me, but ......" The middle-aged man had something to say but couldn't say, his storefront was big and wide or a three-story small attic, it was the best to use it for business, this was the family business left to him by his ancestors, he couldn't just ruin it.
"Shopkeeper, how much money do you have left missing, seeing that your family calls you a good business, it stands to reason that it shouldn't be a problem to repay the money, but you have encountered difficulties?" Bai Zhi glanced up, the three-story building was full of people, and the lobby that she could see was full.
"Girl, something happened to my family, so I asked Boss Sheng to borrow some loan sharks, but my lady's illness was not only not optimistic, but also spent a lot of money, I thought that the business was not bad, and the borrowed money could be repaid, but I didn't expect that on the last day of the repayment, the original good layer of interest suddenly became three points of interest, and the money I had prepared was not enough, although the business was very good, but the small business did not make much money, and I couldn't take out so much at this time.
Bai Zhi asked, "Then how much money do you have to lose?" β
The middle-aged man sighed: "There is still a hundred taels left, and I am afraid that I will not be able to do it recently." β
Without saying a word, she took out a hundred taels of silver from her sleeve: "Uncle, it just so happens that I have one hundred taels here, you take it to the emergency first, and then return it to me when you have it." β
The middle-aged man took the silver ticket from her hand with trembling hands and handed it to the debt collector: "The money I owe can be regarded as paid off, and I hope that the two will not owe each other in the future." β
The person who collected the accounts was stunned at first, and then reacted: "Hmph, who told you that the interest rate was increased by 30%?" Now that it has risen by fifty percent, the two hundred taels of silver will be written off, otherwise your shop will belong to me. β
The person who collected the accounts didn't expect to kill a Cheng biting gold halfway, to spoil his good deeds, seeing that this girl didn't look like a rich and noble family, and he could take out a hundred taels of silver and think about it, so he turned back and added another hundred taels.
Now Bai Zhi quit: "I said that you came for this shop, and you still don't admit it, it's obvious that you are taking advantage of the fire to rob and slander people." β
I saw the man with his hands on his hips and a fierce face: "So what? This Yongcheng is my territory, and our boss Sheng is the leading boss of this side, do you dare to provoke? β
Hey...... It's okay if this person doesn't mention Boss Sheng, but Bai Zhi was instantly angry: "Your boss Sheng's nest has been served by me, why did you start to make a comeback here again?" β
Hearing this, the man's face changed: "Are you that Bai Zhi?" β
"If you don't change your name, you can't change your surname, my aunt and grandmother are Bai Zhi, if you don't want to be beaten, just hurry up and get out, if you make me angry, I just want to mix and get out," mentioned Boss Sheng, she couldn't sit idly by and ignore this matter, she had to tell Dugu Jin about the situation, he was the city lord, if he didn't care about these people, wouldn't it be a matter of one sentence?
Who knew that the man suddenly drew a knife and faced him, she didn't have time to dodge, but she was pulled away by a strong force behind her, and Duan Xun instantly appeared in front of her, protecting her behind her.
Duan Xun suddenly punched and unexpectedly knocked the man out of the air.
Bai Zhi looked at the person who fell to the ground like a fallen leaf: "I don't know how to say it well, I have to make a trick and deserve to be beaten." β
The wounded man covered his chest with his hands and couldn't speak for a long time.
"I'll tell you, if you offend Boss Sheng, don't want to have a good life," the man just finished speaking, spat out a mouthful of blood, staggered up and ran away.
The middle-aged man immediately greeted him and persuaded him with kind words: "Girl, thank you for helping me out of the siege, but Boss Sheng was originally a scoundrel, and if you provoke him, it will inevitably cause trouble, so you should leave quickly!" The farther away the better, but don't let him find you. β
"Don't worry! We are not afraid of Boss Sheng, but we are afraid that he will not dare to come! This is Bai Zhi walking out from behind him and said with a smile.
"The girl's surname is Hao, she is the shopkeeper of this restaurant, you helped me today, if he is useful in the future, although he speaks, he will go to the soup and go to the fire, and he will not give up."
Bai Zhi hurriedly waved his hand: "Shopkeeper Hao, I will see the outside world when I say this, I am also uneven on the road, I will draw a knife to help, now I just beat away the debt collectors, I think they should come to find trouble again, you have to be prepared." β
I saw Hao's shopkeeper with a sad face: "I'm afraid that my restaurant's business will not be stable in the future, I heard that Boss Sheng was cleaned up by powerful people and dug up a lot of his money, so he in Yongcheng will intensify the protection fee for us merchants, if it weren't for my wife's illness, how would he borrow money from him?" β
Just by listening to this, the blank paper knows that the shopkeeper is also a person with a story.
"Shopkeeper Hao, I'm not polite to you, I'll tell you the truth, I want to come to Yongcheng to do business, and I need to find a shop, but we are not familiar with here, so I want to ask you, is there a spare store here?" Now that he's said it, and he really needs someone to introduce him.
I just asked the shopkeeper Hao directly.
I saw him pondering slightly: "Girl, the streets of Yongcheng are prosperous and lively, the business in each shop is good, I am afraid it is not easy to sell a faΓ§ade, but ......"
"But what?" Bai Zhi asked him.
Shopkeeper Hao glanced at Duan Xun before continuing to speak: "A few years ago, I bought a storefront on the street, originally I wanted to keep it for some small business, but the restaurant at home was too busy, and I didn't spare my hand, so I left it there, but the place may be a little remote, next to the mouth of the alley." β
His words made Bai Zhi see hope: "Shopkeeper Hao, if you are willing to sell the shop to me or rent it to me, you can do it, I am willing to pay a high price, in short, there is no need to worry about money." β
Shopkeeper Hao shook his head: "It's just that the shop is a bit remote, I just didn't think about what business to do, so I have been shelving, and now if you need it urgently, I can let it be used for business for you first." β
His words were good words, but the businessman had too many eyes after all, and he didn't say that he would give them away, give them or sell them to them, so even if she agreed to ask for it, if there was any dispute in the future, it would be difficult to say.
"Shopkeeper Hao, I haven't seen your shop now, I don't know how big it is, and I don't know where it is! So there's no way to negotiate with you specifically, so let's find a time, let's go and see the shop together before making a decision," she thought she could go shopping again, this street is so big, maybe there are other shops in her picture?
