Bai Lu picked up the arrears and wooden boxes scattered on the ground, and was equally terrified, "This ...... Grandpa Guo has military power and high power, what do you want, how can you owe so much money? Could it be that the old lady did a good deed? ”

Su Jiu sat down again, covering his eyes with one hand, "I used to think that it was best for a family to be reunited, but there are people who treat her as family, but she does things that are not as good as animals." 500,000 taels of silver, heh......"

Even if the 200,000 taels of silver tickets that Xiao Yu gave her were taken out to fill the hole, it was far from enough!

Su Jiu closed his eyes.

She was suddenly a little glad that she had returned to Chang'an.

Because a simple person like my father and brother can't fight the old lady at all!

My mother can't wake up from a deep sleep, this family needs her Su wine to support!

The lonely lamp is like a bean.

Tonight, the girl is destined to have trouble sleeping.

is also sleepless, as well as Xiao Tingchen.

Unlike those who need to stay in the inn, he has a lot of money, so he bought a small courtyard house on Yanxing Street.

When the moon was in the sky, he stood under the eaves, lazily draped in a bellflower blue coat, and was smoking leisurely.

For him, being admitted to the top prize is just the first step into officialdom, and it does not satisfy his ambitions, so there is really nothing to be happy about.

Just as he was thinking about life, Ji Mo Lian came uninvited.

A famous businessman in the south of the Yangtze River, with dew on his shoulders, stepped in and began to scold: "Xiao Tingchen, you did a good thing!" ”

Xiao Tingchen smiled, "Yo, what a rare guest!" Old chicken, you don't stay in Jiangnan well, what are you doing in Chang'an? ”

"What are you doing in Chang'an?! Of course, it's to settle accounts with you! Jimo Lian was furious, "When you asked for the pill to cure Su Wine's cold poison, what did you say?" ”

"Forget."

"You said, you want to use Fenghuatai to exchange pills with me! What now? Now Fenghuatai was blown up by Mrs. Zhao, and was blown up by her! Even if it was blown up, I thought that I could fish out the gold, silver and jewelry that had been blown into the water, but I didn't even have half a gold ingot in the water! Let me ask you, where did you get the treasure of Yan Laofu's rival country?! ”

Originally, the top floor of Fenghua Terrace was used to put aside Yan Lao's treasures.

After the explosion and collapse of Fenghuatai, it stands to reason that those treasures should have fallen into the water, but Jimo Lian didn't catch anything!

Xiao Tingchen exhaled a puff of smoke rings gracefully.

Where did the treasure go?

Of course, he had already spent it.

Three years after giving up the scientific expedition, he was not idle for a day, opening a money village and a restaurant, and he used the gold and silver left by Yan Qiansui to establish a business empire belonging to him Xiao Tingchen in Daqi.

Who would have thought that the young concubine living in this small courtyard house would be the owner of the largest money village in Qi country?

He said slowly, "Old chicken, you can't beat me in a fight, and you can't beat me in a fight." Since you have come to the capital, it is better to stay and take care of my business. I'm about to become an official, and I don't have time to worry about business. ”

Jimo Lian almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

He rushed all the way to come here, but he didn't get any benefits, but he had to help him take care of his business?!

Xiao Tingchen turned around and walked into the house, "The shopkeeper of Lufeng Qian Zhuang sent a batch of account books today, saying that there is a large family that owes a huge amount of money, and you can see for me if you want to come to collect debts." I slept first. ”

Jimo Lian watched him close the door.

The two bookkeepers came over from the study and said respectfully: "Mr. Jimo, please, let's talk to you about that family carefully." ”

Jimo Lian sat down in the study with a bitter face, facing the mountains of ledgers, and wanted to burn them with a fire.

A bookkeeper smiled and helped him spread out the account book, "Mr. Jimo, this family has asked our money village for three years to borrow 400,000 taels of snowflake silver, plus interest, a total of 500,000 taels, and not a penny has been returned so far." ”

Ji Mo Lian said reluctantly, but his fingers still turned through the pages of accounts very honestly.

He knew that many Zhong Ming Ding Food Families in Chang'an City, in order to maintain the luxury and wealth on the surface, they often secretly used valuables as collateral to exchange cash for money and pawnshops.

For example, in this family, the shops are mortgaged, the acres of land are mortgaged, and even the mansion where they live is mortgaged......

He sneered, for the sake of a little vanity, even the property left by the ancestors was mortgaged, and it was no wonder that this kind of family was not defeated.

He said lightly: "Which family is it?" Who in the clan were officials in the court? ”

"It's the Mansion of the Land Kingdom."

Jimo Lian's hand shaking as he flipped through the ledger.

……

Su Jiu stayed awake all night.

Sitting in front of the dresser in the morning, I saw two blue and black marks under my eyes, and I looked very haggard.

She took the pearl paste and covered it carefully, "Bai Lu, take my silver money, let's go to Lufeng Qianzhuang." ”

"Go to Lufeng Qianzhuang?" Bai Lu was slightly surprised, "Miss, you don't want to ......"

"I have to pay it back. I've seen the arrears, and the interest is doubled, and the longer it drags on, the more interest we have to repay. Pay back 200,000 taels first, and take the rest from the old lady. If she didn't give it, she asked her father to send troops to search! ”

The girl's eyes narrowed, and she was decisive.

Bai Lu couldn't persuade again, so he had to say yes.

Su Jiu came to Lufeng Qian Zhuang by carriage.

Located in the most prosperous area of the East City, the big money village is a high-rise building and is majestic.

Su Jiu got out of the carriage, looked up at the golden plaque, and stepped in silently.

As everyone knows, her actions were taken into account by the young man behind the railing of the tall building.

Xiao Tingchen raised his eyebrows, "This is the surprise you said?" ”

Ji Mo Lian sat on the Taishi chair and slowly ate the refreshments, "Someone loves coercion and temptation the most, 500,000 taels of snowflake silver, it's not a small amount." Take this opportunity to board the gate of the Guogong Mansion and ask the old man for a daughter to be his daughter-in-law, why not? ”

"Tsk, according to your meaning, if I marry Su Jiu, wouldn't the 500,000 taels of silver in the Lu Guogong Mansion have to be repaid? That's not going to work! ”

Jimo Lian choked on a sip of tea and looked at him complicatedly.

This man doesn't want to marry a daughter-in-law, does he?

I definitely don't want to marry a daughter-in-law!

Xiao Tingchen rolled up his sleeves and poured a glass of wine.

He took a sip of wine in a good mood.

The best daughter red in Chang'an Wine Workshop is worth a thousand gold and has a very mellow taste.

"Old chicken, the silver of the Lu Guogong Mansion must be returned, and I will marry Su Jiu, which is called both people and money!"

He patted Jimo Lian's shoulder and went downstairs with a smile.

Jimo Lian's face was full of words.

If a man like Xiao Laogou can marry a daughter-in-law, he will be a bachelor for the rest of his life!

Word!

Xiao Tingchen came to the lobby of Lufeng Money Village slowly.

A slender girl, wearing a sara fence, was sitting on a large chair and waiting.

The light veil hanging down the fence covered her appearance, Xiao Lao Gou-oh no, Xiao Tingchen couldn't appreciate her flowery beauty, and this mood was suddenly very bad.

He walked over, sat down across the flowers from her, and chatted lazily, "Yo, whose girl is this, with a thin waist and long legs, she looks very familiar." ”
