Chapter 158: Paying off the debt of eight thousand taels
"Get up!"
Qin Tao said coldly: "You have bad intentions against my lady, you have bad intentions, admit your mistake and it's over." ”
"I've been beaten by you." Xi Jing's attitude was very sincere, and he said: "Qin Tao, Shuyun, let's settle the two clear." ”
Xi Shuyun was just about to speak.
Although she doesn't read much, she also knows how to be forgiving and forgiving.
However, Qin Tao gently pulled her.
Xi Shuyun understood, and immediately stopped talking.
"You get up, today I will look at your uncle's face, and I won't embarrass you." Qin Tao's voice was so cold.
Xi Shuyun thought in a trance that the tone of Qin Tao's speech in the quilt just now was similar to the tone at this time.
"Brother, sister-in-law, you prepare some wine and food, and I will have a few drinks with the magistrate." Qin Tao said.
Of course, Xi Jie listened to Qin Tao's words.
Qin Tao can't be blamed for this kind of thing.
The final reason is still Xi Jing.
If he hadn't offended his sister Xi Shuyun, Qin Tao wouldn't have acted in a rage.
Qin Tao is protecting his own woman.
He wasn't wrong.
"Okay, you guys wait a minute."
Xi Sun took Xi Jie to the kitchen, and Xi Shuyun followed.
Qin Tao took the four of them to the Yetang House.
Small door, small household.
There is no guest house.
A table was set up in the hall.
"Qin Tao, I already know the origin of this matter." Lou Yulin's attitude is very good.
He was a sane man.
In order to compete for the moment, he ruined the future he had earned after studying hard for more than ten years.
Why bother!
"It's good to know."
Qin Tao didn't laugh, he had to figure out whether Lou Yulin and Xi Jing came over to admit their mistakes.
If he admits his mistake, Qin Tao can immediately take the blame.
If they came to play tricks, Qin Tao would not refuse.
"Xi Jing and my wife have been playmates since childhood, but you have already started your own family, and it is unreasonable for you to mess around again."
Qin Tao's voice was not high.
But everything he said was true.
Lou Yulin was also observing Qin Tao, and when he saw that Qin Tao was talking well, he was even more sure in his heart that Qin Tao was not an ordinary person.
"Qin Gongzi." Lou Yulin was very polite.
After all, the first time I came to see Qin Tao, I couldn't figure out the details of Qin Tao, so don't be arrogant.
"Childe? Just call me Qin Tao, you don't need to call me Childe. Qin Tao also went straight and straight, without a trace of beating around the bush.
At this time, the dish is ready.
Wine was also served.
Qin Tao took the initiative to pour the wine, whether they were solid or fake, in short, they came.
There was no noise.
Qin Tao can also accept the attitude of the county magistrate.
"Qin Tao, I'll do it myself." Xi Jing wanted to take the bottle.
Qin Tao finally showed a smile and said: "You just said, we are two clear, and I agree, but if you let me know that you have a bad idea of my lady again, or let my lady feel that your eyes are dazzling, I will still beat you." ”
"I see." Xi Jing really didn't look at Xi Shuyun again.
"Drink!"
The four men drank the wine from their glasses.
Today's meal of wine is not for Xi Jing, even if Xi Jing kneels outside until dawn, the Qin Gang will not be so polite to him.
Mainly for Lou Yulin's face.
Qin Tao knew that Lou Yulin was only a county magistrate, but if he wanted to do big things in the future, he would inevitably have to deal with Lou Yulin.
So!
Qin Tao still has a set of ways to deal with people.
"When my injuries are healed, I'm going to leave this place." Xi Jing said: "I have no face to live, I will change places, and then raise the child, it can be regarded as a new start, and I will never come back." ”
It's not a bad decision.
"Qin Tao, this official thinks that this matter should end here." Lou Yulin said.
"Absolutely." Qin Tao readily agreed, and then said: "I'm just worried, I'm afraid that the Xi Six family will not be relenting, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people when the time comes." ”
Lou Yulin raised his glass again.
"I know that you have a relationship with the court, and I also know that with your help, Zheng Da was promoted."
"Qin Tao, including Yuan Lao of Baiyun Academy, everyone is afraid of your relationship with the above, but this official wants to say that your real strength is the group of mountain bandits who farmed for you, and the muskets you made day and night."
After Lou Yulin finished speaking, he looked at Qin Tao with a smile.
And Qin Tao was slightly shocked in his heart, he was already very low-key, at least he had never publicized the manufacture of muskets.
Yes!
Qin Tao had never told outsiders that the muskets he had now were enough to arm an army.
"Drink!" Qin Tao did not admit it.
However, the absence of denial is tantamount to admitting.
It is actually a good thing to have a little tacit understanding with each other.
"Master Lou, you came here today, I have one more thing to tell you." Qin Tao said, and took out the IOU written by Xi Liu.
After Lou Yulin read it, he had no idea for a while.
Although he is a magistrate, he can't take out the more than 200,000 taels of silver.
"Silver is a small thing." Qin Tao said: "However, those fierce descendants of the Xi family smashed the royal glass bottle, if this matter is stabbed out, the saint will be angry, and Xi Liu's family will all be killed." ”
At this moment, cold sweat flowed down Lou Yulin's back.
Oh, my God!
Qin Tao is a palace wine merchant, if he tells Princess Yunyang about this, I am afraid that not only will he not be able to keep his official position, but even his head will have to move.
Alas!
What more can I say?
"Qin Tao, look at this matter......" Lou Yulin didn't have an idea, so he wanted to see how Qin Tao planned to deal with this matter.
"Lou Zhixian, I don't want you to be embarrassed, we have many friends and many roads."
Qin Tao put down the cup, his eyes shone brightly, and he said: "I can entrust someone to settle the affairs in the palace, but you have to ensure that Xi Liu and his family are honest with me, otherwise you can think about the consequences yourself." ”
"Okay, I can guarantee it." Lou Yulin nodded hurriedly.
Xi Jing also said on the side: "After this incident, those people in our family don't dare to come nonsense again. ”
"If I have the two of you, I'll be relieved." After Qin Tao finished speaking, he slapped the IOU on the table: "I also give you an attitude, this IOU can be invalidated, but you must pay me back 8,000 taels of silver, as a loss to the ceramic factory." ”
Acceptable!
240,000 taels, say exempt.
Lou Yulin couldn't help but look at Qin Tao.
Sure enough, it's not an ordinary person.
It's so big.
"Qin Tao, this is the end of the matter, let's not mention it again, I will return the silver for them tomorrow." Lou Yulin made a final decision.
Lou Xi didn't say a word.
When she saw that her man said that he wanted to pay back the money, she was not happy.
"Xianggong, this is the matter of the sixth brother and their family, and our family's silver is not blown by the wind, so don't pay off their debts for them."
