Chapter 48: Entering the Prison
ββ¦β¦ The younger brother said that he recently got acquainted with the Liu family's housekeeper. Because I leaked my mouth after drinking, I realized that people were secretly putting money in print, and the interest rate was high!
Only the shops they come and go with are all big deals, and they don't charge if the money is less, at least a hundred taels, so they want to find our family to make up together. β
Hearing Lin Fang's words, Lin Junren was also moved.
He had heard of this kind of thing, but that Master Liu was very shrewd, how could he let a housekeeper take advantage of the loophole?
"No matter how shrewd the lord is, it is impossible to check the accounts all day long. As long as it is on a monthly basis, it doesn't matter. I really didn't make a move for a while, so I quietly took the master's valuables to the pawnshop and put the account on the table. When it is redeemed, that is. β
Lin Junren believed it for six or seven points, and Lin Fangshi said again, "I heard that Steward Liu has paid for all the valuable things in his house to turn over the interest, and in the past few years, he has earned a piece of family business, but he doesn't dare to let Master Liu know." But the little brother of the Tianqi he bought privately can see it with his own eyes, and it does have his name written on it, it's all true! β
Lin Junren said, "You mean, we also arrived at the house?" β
His family is also worth this house, and it was only in exchange for selling the land in his hometown that year. It's really a bet, and he's still a little reluctant.
Lin Fang said, "I'll tell you the truth, the younger brother has quietly taken the family deed and paid forty taels of silver. Originally, Steward Liu was willing to accept it, but he could only give three points of interest. But if you can make up a hundred taels, you can give four cents of interest. And people pay interest on a monthly basis, and this month is two taels of silver, and you will pay the money! β
If you want to talk about these two people, they are two people in the end. Living together for many years, it has long become more and more similar.
Think of horses without night grass and no fertilizer, and people without windfalls and no wealth.
Lin Junren was heartbroken and agreed.
But he proposed to see Steward Liu in person and make a deed.
Lin Fangshi said, "You are confused, we just got into trouble with the Liu family like this, how can we meet each other?" Steward Liu repeatedly said that the little brother must not find our family, otherwise he will not dare to accept it. So I thought it would be better to borrow it in the name of my younger brother. But with such a big amount of money, we have to ask my little brother to write us an IOU. Even if there is anything in the future, the younger brother can't afford it, doesn't he still have a father? β
Lin Junren thought about it.
In addition to that house, Father Fang also bought dozens of acres of land in the countryside and has been hiring people to farm.
If it weren't for that, Fang Qin would just want to gnaw at the old, where would he go?
So he personally took the deed, paid fifty taels of silver, and searched for boxes and scraped cabinets at home, and made up ten taels, a total of sixty taels and handed them to Fang Qin.
When Fang Qin took a hundred taels of silver, Steward Liu pretended to be surprised.
"I didn't see it, Brother Fang, you still have such good skills, a hundred taels can be made up. In that case, I might as well tell you something. This is almost the end of the year, and many businesses want to do big business, and they need money urgently. If you can make up another hundred taels, you can be given five cents of interest! β
Fang Qin was very proud, and when he heard that there was such a good thing, he couldn't help but be moved.
There are still some land deeds at home, and a hundred taels of silver are worth it. And my sister only knows that it is a four-cent profit, if it is done, how much can he eat the difference in the middle?
"Then you wait two more days, I'll get it!"
"Good!"
Within a few days, Fang Qin really found another hundred taels of silver. Steward Liu happily signed the deed and paid the first month's interest on the spot.
Fang Qin handed over the money at the bottom of the box, only exchanged for a few taels of silver interest, and thought that he had taken a big advantage, so he left with a smile.
"Idiot!" Master Liu turned out from next door to the restaurant box.
Steward Liu held the silver coin and said with a smile, "Master, now people have entered the house." When you want to clean up the two Lin Fangs, it's a matter of your words. β
Master Liu squinted and waved his hand, "Don't worry." When there is a storm in his house, wouldn't it be better to stab him again? β
"The old man is wise! I can't say that the Lin family will sell their daughter again by then, and by thenβ"
**
Osmanthus Alley.
Lin Fang's family got two taels of silver, and he was also overjoyed.
immediately came over triumphantly to show off, saying that he would also buy two pig's feet, and wait for Lin Pengyue to come back and stew soup.
Meiniang immediately said, "Dad and brother both like heavy flavors, so it's better to marinate them." Add a chicken or duck, together with the egg lotus root fragrant, marinated with wine and rice, and it is not easy to spoil. β
Lin Junren was greedy when he heard it, "This is the best, and I will come back with two catties of wine." The Mid-Autumn Festival is also coming, and it has to look like it. β
But Lin Fang's family was still thinking about making a new dress for himself, but it was not enough.
The clothes she cut off from Meiniang, as well as the clothes given by Aunt Zhou, were all asked by Lin Junren to go, and he used them for his own use.
But if you think about it again, this profit will be available every month in the future, at most she will save for two more months.
Therefore, he was not verbose, only soured the beautiful girl, "Look at how long you have been in the sewing business, but you haven't seen a penny!" β
The beautiful lady is humble on the outside, "That's nature." I'm a little child, how can I compare to my father? β
These words made both of them a little fluttery.
I thought that although this daughter made a lot of noise, what could she do when it came to making a living?
In the heart of the beautiful girl, she felt that they were unreliable.
How can there be pie in the sky in this world?
It's so high-profit, don't fall into the pit.
But no one listened to her, so why bother to dislike people? Just concentrate on making the tie on your hand.
Soon, the month of January was approaching, and several needlewomen were coming to deliver the goods.
Some of them have really worked hard and done a great job.
Some of them are mediocre, and some even accidentally get stained, and they are also used to make up the numbers.
Seeing this, the beautiful lady simply made a list, divided these lines into upper, middle and lower grades, and marked the person and number in front of them.
Some women looked weak, but the beautiful lady said, "I won't deduct your money, but I will only look back at these easy to sell, maybe I can give you more wages." If it is not easy to sell, it is impossible to say that there will be less work in the future. β
The earnest women rejoiced in their hearings.
Some people who know how to be motivated express their willingness to take back those that are not done well and redo them.
There are also some people who only think about processing money, and the others refuse to care.
The beautiful lady pays attention to their temperament, and how to use people when they turn back, and they have a number in their hearts.
When she turned around, she took the list and goods to the sewing shop, and was praised by Aunt Ge.
Aunt Qiu made a routine blow, "It's not too stupid!" By the way, Ajuan is getting married, when will she be able to deliver the goods? β
Meiniang automatically ignored the previous sentence and only said, "Sister Ajuan's hand has been done, and some are still in Ah Fu's hand, saying that the Zhao family will bring it together when they welcome their relatives the day after tomorrow." You're really not going to eat and drink, are you? Sister Ajuan is looking forward to it! β
Zhou Juan wants to go home to get married, and in order to save her reputation, Aunt Zhou also plans to set up a few tables at home, please invite the neighbors, what does it mean.
Zhou Juan was also willing, because she asked for a house from her mother's house, and promised to add money to buy fish and meat.
Yes, he also invited Ge Qiu and the others.
Aunt Ge waved her hand and said, "Our identities are not suitable. Tell her not to think about it, so that she can give birth and get married. β
She is a widow, and Aunt Qiu has never married. For festive occasions like weddings, it is better not to appear in order to please good fortune.
And Zhou Juan is remarried, if you provoke others to gossip, it will be boring.
Mei Niang nodded sensibly, and Aunt Ge asked again, "Can you walk away in a few days?" If you can go away, can you accompany Aunt Qiu to Wucheng before the Mid-Autumn Festival? β
Of course!
The beautiful lady was very surprised, but asked, "Why doesn't the eldest lady go?" β
Aunt Ge smiled, "It rained a few days ago, and my knee made an old problem again, and I couldn't walk." Besides, there are still two dogs at home, so I have to keep a janitor. I wanted to go with your aunt with Xiaofei, but he is a boy, if there is anything and it is inconvenient, it is better for you to go with him to see and learn. β
"The point is to be a girl for me!" Aunt Qiu stared at the beautiful girl, "When the time comes, you can be smart, these things can't be sold for money, and I will rely on the money I owe you." β
The beautiful girl understands, this is to take her to support the field.
Immediately Ying Ying bowed, "Yes!" The slave and maid listen to the aunt's orders. β
Aunt Qiu sneered and drove her back to prepare.
Huzhou City, Han Wangfu.
Min Bai told the little eunuch that he was safe, "Prepare a few regular clothes, and in a few days, I plan to take the time to go to Wucheng to observe the people's feelings." I always say that there is rich over there, and I want to see it with my own eyes. If you can find a good livelihood and bring it back to benefit the people of Huzhou, it will be the best. β
Oh, I'm going to dig into the corner.
Ping'an came back to his senses, and suddenly exclaimed, "Your Highness, Your Highness, are you going to bring people?" β
Min Bai raised his eyebrows, "You're not human?" β
Peace is like swallowing a salted duck egg, salty and bitter.
The prince cannot leave the fiefdom without a holy decree. But it doesn't matter if you go out in civilian clothes, and Wucheng is only separated by a river, and it won't take a few days. But the responsibility to follow the person who serves is too great.
It is necessary to ensure the safety of His Highness, and to ensure that his identity is not revealed.
He, he is a little eunuch, how can he take on such a heavy responsibility!
But what His Highness decided cannot be changed.
also treated him diplomatically, "This matter must not be known to the concubine!" β
Peace, I want to cry.
