He knelt in the courtroom.

"Say, how did you come up with this method to make money?"

Tang Lu asked: "Master Qiqi, the small one is not a rich family, it is really a fraud to use some money." ”

"Be honest, lest your flesh suffer! Say, "How did you deceive?" Tang Lu asked.

"The adults, the small ones take this method in other places, that is, take two silver ingots to the pawnshop, and then run away with 100,000 yuan. This time it was a small miscalculation. Originally, I was going to cheat 100,000 yuan and leave, but I walked to the border of Gucheng, and suddenly learned that something happened to the boss's pawnshop, and the little one had an idea. He said.

"What thoughts?" Tang Lu asked.

"I just want to take the 100,000 dollars. The small one thinks that if the collateral is lost, the boss will definitely compensate according to the price, the two silver ingots of the small one are worth 200,000 yuan, and now they get 100,000 yuan, and there are 100,000 yuan, and they have a pawn ticket in their hands, so they are not afraid of the boss defaulting on the debt. Because the boss's pawnshop is a century-old brand, reputation is life, it should be easy to take away 100,000 yuan, reputation is a priceless treasure, doing business depends on reputation, and people do not stand without trust. That's the bottom line. ”

"You still have a bottom line?"

"No, adult, the small one means that the boss has a bottom line, relying on credibility, because of this, the small one will go to receive compensation, so that if it is successful, he can take away 200,000 yuan. In this way, you can go to another place, you will inevitably be new, you can start performing again, and you can make money again. ”

"Oh, so you have this idea, it seems that you have a lot of research on the pawn industry!"

"Thank you for the adult's lifting, in fact, the small one is wrong, I underestimated the ability of the adult, if I knew that the adult was so powerful, the small one would not come back, and I would not be lucky, and I would no longer covet the 100,000 money. The little ones are really greedy, and they really shouldn't. You shouldn't come to take the money, you really shouldn't take the money, and there will be problems as soon as you take it. I can't get it, I didn't expect it to be a pit. The little one had long expected that there would be a pit, but he didn't expect this pit to be so wonderful. He said.

"If you don't dig this hole, you won't jump into it. You're thinking wrong! Took the money and wanted more. If you are not greedy, you will not be caught. Tang Lu said.

"Isn't it! It's really not enough to swallow an elephant, if you don't be greedy, you can accept it when you see it, and get 100,000 yuan. Now it's a losing game. The small one pleads guilty and accepts punishment, please punish the small one by adults! He said.

"This is very simple, what about you, you have thrown yourself into the net, and you have also taken the initiative to confess the crime, pleaded guilty, and accepted punishment, the official will sentence you to return 100,000 yuan to the pawnshop owner, and the fake ingots will be confiscated and destroyed, so as not to be used by you to deceive people again, in addition, hit 30 boards to show warning, tell those who want to defy the law, rein in the precipice, so as not to follow your old path." Tang Lu said.

"Thank you, for your kindness! The small ones will no longer dare to deceive people in the future, thank you for the guidance of the adults, and the small ones will benefit deeply. He said.

"After you are beaten, it is estimated that you will not be able to move for half a month, and you need to ask someone to take care of you, so the official will not arrange for you to take care of you, and the official will not confiscate your previous stolen money, you can use the stolen money to hire someone to take care of you, and if your conscience finds it, you are willing to return the stolen money, of course, you can return it, and it is also protected by law. If you have the ability, quit! Once you've signed and accepted your punishment, you're ready to leave. If you can't walk, hire someone to help you. Tang Lu said.

"Thank you for being so considerate, and the little ones are willing to be beaten." He said.

Then he was punished according to the law, and he hated him without resentment. Tang Lu did this thing, which was very beautiful, and it was rumored to be a good story for a while.

The boss lost and recovered 100,000 yuan, and was very happy, and wanted to give the county government a little money to express his gratitude, but Tang Lu sternly refused, saying: "If you frame the official first, send it, if you want the official to continue to be the county order here, take it back, so as not to be wronged by the official." ”

Tang Lu is talking about the former Gucheng County Order, this guy is too greedy, and he ended up miserable. This trend must be removed from Tang Lu, so that the people of Gucheng will still suffer in the future.

Tang Lu solved the case, and suddenly someone mentioned a strange thing, that is, a son killed his father. This made Tang Lu feel incomprehensible and unbelievable, generally speaking, the officialdom of Gucheng County is relatively chaotic, does not pay attention to the rules, and is full of miasma, but the people are still simple, the people are kind, and they will not do bad things.

The deceased's name was Xi Zili, a businessman, born in Gucheng, and in his early years, he ran to Xiangyang, Laohekou, Zaoyang, Xinye and other places to do business, and accumulated some money. Who would have thought that the wife would die when the child was about two years old.

Xi Zili's son is named Xi Xiadong, who was born in the summer, and he is also in Gucheng, but when he was born, the east was already bright, and when he saw that the sun was in the east and the sun was about to rise, Xi Zili named his son Xi Xiadong. As soon as you look at the name, you know that you were born in the summer, and your birthplace is in the east, as the name suggests, it is clear at a glance.

Xi Zili wants to do business, and it is really inconvenient to take his young son with him.

A matchmaker came to the door.

"Xi Zili, you said you need a woman to take care of the child?"

"Yes."

"Are you looking for an old mother?"

"If the old mother can take care of Xi Xiadong, of course there is no problem."

"When does that start?"

"Of course, the sooner the better, I'm going to go out and stock in a hurry." Xi Zili said.

"It's better to be like this, what about you, you're still young, if you keep looking for an old man to take care of the child, the child will become more and more like the old man in the future, including speech and behavior, not like his peers, maybe he will have low self-esteem, you understand this?"

"Understood."

"If you agree, I'll propose."

"Propose? Who? Have I seen it? If you haven't seen it, then it's good or not, it won't be someone who can't get married, right? Xi Zili asked.

"Look at what you said, if you want to propose a marriage, she is also a yellow flower girl, that is, Dou Fuxi's family, who sells tofu in the neighboring village. Dou Fuxi was honest and gave birth to seven daughters, this is the youngest daughter, because the family is poor, you have money but no one, there are people in his family who just don't have money, just right, you find a yellow flower girl, knows how to endure hardships, and is kind-hearted, where to find such a good thing? The matchmaker said.

"That's a good idea! I just need to find someone who is kind-hearted, as long as I am good to my son Xi Xiadong, the yellow flower girl is just to prove her chastity before marriage, as long as the character is good, everything else is secondary. People say that the stepmother is good, the stepmother is bad, this is the law, it is generally like this, if the stepmother is good to the child who is not her own, it is difficult to find it in the world. Xi Zili said.

"Yes, people are selfish now, don't worry, Dou Qi'er is well-behaved and capable, she will say, she is a good hand inside and out, you can do business with peace of mind, and she has no problem taking care of your home. Rest assured to make money, don't worry about what will happen in your backyard. Dou Qi'er will definitely satisfy you, if you agree, I will go to propose. The matchmaker said.

"Don't yet, I'll inquire and then talk about it, I'll say it again, I'm looking for someone who is good for the child, if it's not good, I'd rather not marry, if I marry and give birth to her own child, it's not good for my child, and I don't want to marry a wife, because it's not fair to the child. It's also unfair to the mother of the child's death. Therefore, it is not difficult to rush this matter, and it is necessary to think about it in the long run, so as not to regret it. Xi Zili said.

"I understand, but how can you think long-term when your children need to be taken care of, you need to make money, and this is an urgent matter right now? I advise you to be a junjie who knows the times, and you have to cut through the mess quickly, Dou Qi'er is really good, it's late, if someone finds someone else, you won't have a share. Besides, if someone is the first marriage, it is considered to fill the house for you, not because the family is poor, and it is estimated that she will not agree to marry you. I also need to be matched, Dou Fuxi is honest, he has worked hard for most of his life, and he has no dowry, this thank you matchmaker money is estimated to have to be taken by you, Dou Fuxi has no money there, I know very well. You just wait for the good news, and if you agree, I'll mention it, and you're ready to marry her and enter the door. The matchmaker said.

"Oh well! After the deed is done, I will definitely thank you! Xi Zili said.

"It doesn't matter if I thank you or not, the main thing is that the child Xi Xiadong needs to be taken care of, the child is pitiful, he has no mother at such a young age, I really have an experience. I also didn't have a mother since I was a child, my father pulled me to grow up, it was too hard, I saw that everyone had a mother, but I didn't, my heart is not a taste! The matchmaker said.

"I see! Yes, the children of the former mother and stepmother are really pitiful. This is the case with my son Xi Xiadong, no matter what, or that, you must find a kind person. It's not terrible to be poor, you can make money when you're poor, and it's over if you have a bad conscience, you don't want to find a femme fatale, just take care of the child and let the child grow up safely, everything else is secondary, don't think too much. Xi Zili said.

"Don't worry, it's on me, the pair I said is a pair of pairs, all of them have succeeded, no one is dissatisfied, your family business is wrapped up in me, and success is guaranteed." The matchmaker said.

"Okay, here are ten taels of silver, I will give you as the hard money for running errands first, and see how much the other party wants, I am well prepared."

"More than that, too much, one or two silver is enough, that's good, I'll take it all, and after the matter is completed in the future, I won't want to thank the media money, this money is thank the media money." The matchmaker said.

After speaking, the matchmaker left happily and immediately went to Dou Fuxi's house.

"Brother Dou! Good things are coming, good things are coming! The matchmaker said as she walked, and saw Dou Fuxi grinding soybeans,

"What's good?" Dou Fuxi asked, the work in his hands did not stop, he knew that once he stopped, there would be losses, and every minute and every moment was important.

"It's the last time you asked me to help Dou Qi'er find someone, did you forget?" The matchmaker asked.

"Oh yes, I didn't forget, which one?" Dou Fuxi asked, stopped what he was doing, and looked at the matchmaker.

"It's Xi Zhuang's Xi Zili."

"Him?"

"What? Do you know? ”

"I know, he collects mountain goods to the mountain to take, and brings back the goods needed here from outside, everyone knows him, I also saw him when I went to the street to sell tofu." Dou Fuxi said.

"He is a very loyal and honest person, and if you marry your daughter, you will definitely not suffer. If you go, you will be at home. That's a good thing. After a year and a half, I have a child, I am the hostess, I am in charge of the house inside and outside, isn't the family property all surnamed Dou? The matchmaker said.

Dou Fuxi was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Look, no wonder the matchmaker relies on one mouth?" You're really right, you're worth a mouth. The dead are said to be alive, but his family is rich, I know, he does a business once, and he makes more money than I grind tofu for a year, this guy has economic brains. It's hard to find in all walks of life, and I said why I'm always poor, because it's inflexible here. ”

He laughed and patted his head.

"Yes, being smart is a man's capital, doing business depends on the brain, your seventh child can't lose money when he marries, and he will definitely be smart when he has a child in the future. Smarter than the six girls before you. I said this, put it here, you remember, see if it will be fulfilled when the time comes, and see if what I said is right. The matchmaker said.

"Of course, I know that dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes and mice give birth to holes, this is all innate, no matter how hard you work the day after tomorrow, it will be in vain. You see those rich people, instead of working, they are getting richer and richer, and those poor people are busy all day long, and they are still poor. This is good, marrying my daughter can also take advantage of the fairy aura of the rich, and maybe it will bring blessings. All six of my daughters became rich. Dou Fuxi said.

"Originally, the gap between the rich and the poor in this world is very serious, the poor are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer. No one can say what is going on. It seems to be destined, but we still have to pay attention to seize the opportunity, like I have been a matchmaker for many years, and have contributed to a lot of good things, so I believe in fate, some people look happy, but in fact they are very painful, and some people look plain, but they are very happy, happiness is not for people to see, but to experience and taste for themselves. Life is like this, without whitewashing, back to the truth, will not be deceived, and there will be no loss. The matchmaker said.

"I can't imagine that you have gone through so much, I admire it very much."

"There is no need to admire, in fact, many people are trying to live, who can understand love, who can enjoy a happy and satisfying time? It's all decided by people's mentality. The matchmaker said.

"You see, I gave birth to seven daughters, but I don't have a son, I want a son, but I still don't, this is fate, if I have a son, I can teach my son to grind tofu. Because my son has the strength to continue the incense of my Dou family, who knows, if God doesn't give me my son, I can only accept my fate. Dou Fuxi said.

"Don't lament the injustice of fate. In fact, God has given you the best, those who don't have a son want a son, and those who have a son want a daughter, saying that a daughter is the intimate jacket of his parents, and the son is careless and doesn't know how to take care of his old parents, to say that a daughter is a blessing, and a son is famous. It is still necessary to be blessed and connected to the earth. You can't be too ambitious, and you will end up being dumb and losing. The matchmaker said.

"You say this, I feel much more at ease, much more comfortable, it seems that the daughter is also a descendant, seven sons-in-law, you can also, people say that the son-in-law is half a son, seven sons-in-law is three and a half sons, it is worth it, it is worth it! There is nothing to be embarrassed, the son-in-law is good, better than the son. I think so. Dou Fuxi said.
