Chapter 190: Do what you can
originally thought that Beno was just a love brain, and he was only so good to her, but now he suddenly learned that as long as it was someone he really cared about, he would be good to that person without asking for anything in return.
She is not an exception.
Gu Rao felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
Suddenly another thing came to mind.
"The last time you saw that coffin at Carpenter Tan's house, the reason why you were so excited and wanted to buy a coffin early and come back to prepare it was because of your father's incident?"
The tone of the affirmative is used.
Beno said, "Be prepared. ”
Gu Rao rolled her eyes.
"We will all live a long life, don't think about some mess, as long as there is me in the family for a day, before the age of sixty, no coffins are allowed in the house!"
Passing by and seeing the coffin every day, not to mention that she felt panicked, in case there were children in the future, the children would be scared when they saw it.
Besano's expression was a little regretful.
"Listen to you."
What he was embarrassed to say was that when he was a child, he almost sold himself to bury his father, so he had an obsession since he was a child, you just buy yourself a coffin before you are thirty years old.
After having a wife, I have another goal of buying both myself and my wife's coffins before the age of thirty.
Now it seems that this goal will not be achieved.
But.
Rao'er is right, they will definitely live a long life, and it is not impossible for the coffin to be decades late.
Gu Rao was satisfied.
"I was joking with you just now, who is going to mortgage you?"
"You are willing to give it yourself, I am not willing to give it up, you are my person now, and you can't mortgage yourself to anyone privately in the future!"
The tone is a bit overbearing.
Beye didn't feel disgusted, but had a very down-to-earth feeling in his heart.
"Okay."
Gu Rao got back to business.
"Don't we still have three acres of land? We bought it for nearly twenty taels of silver, how much can we mortgage when we get the money? ”
Beno shook his head.
"I don't know."
Gu Rao got up and said, "Let's go ask now." ”
Beno asked, "Aren't you tired?" ”
Gu Rao said, "I'm not tired now, it's important to do business, I have to open the door tomorrow to do business, hurry up and make money, I don't have time to go to the bank, while I still have time today, do everything that needs to be done." ”
"By the way, when did you wake up at noon?"
Beye said truthfully, "I didn't sleep." ”
Gu Rao said, "Then you stay at home and rest early, I'll go alone, this kind of thing doesn't need two people." ”
Without giving Besano a chance to refuse, he turned around and walked downstairs.
Besano followed.
Gu Rao turned her head and said, "You are not iron-clad, you have walked all day today, stay at home well, I am not a waste, I can't even do this little thing." ”
"Wait for me at home with good news!"
After saying that, he disappeared in the doorway.
-
Gu Rao trotted a distance, looked back several times, but after Beiye didn't follow, she walked towards Qianzhuang with confidence.
I've passed by several times before, but it's the first time I've gone in.
"Boss, what do you need to prepare for borrowing money?"
At this time, there was only one shopkeeper in the store, who was standing behind the counter with his head down and seriously tapping the abacus, when he heard the woman's voice, he looked up, and was amazed when he saw Gu Rao's appearance.
"How much do you want to borrow?"
Gu Rao stretched out five fingers.
Zhu Xingwang said, "Ten taels of silver, you go and sit down next to you first, and I'll tell you how to borrow it after I've finished settling the accounts here." ”
Gu Rao said, "It's best to be able to borrow a hundred taels of silver, the more the better." ”
Zhu Xingwang was extremely surprised when he heard this, and his head, which had originally lowered to look at the abacus and the account book, rose again.
"Do you know the rules for borrowing money?"
Gu Rao shook her head.
"I know a little bit, but it's not too detailed, can you tell me about it?"
Zhu Xingwang said, "The interest on borrowing money for a year is double the principal, are you sure you want to borrow a hundred taels of silver?" ”
Gu Rao said, "I don't borrow for a year, I only borrow for two months, can the interest be less for me?" ”
Zhu Xingwang seemed to have heard some joke.
"If you come here to borrow money, it means that you are short of one hundred taels, are you sure that within two months, you can earn enough one hundred taels of silver and two months of interest?"
Gu Rao said with a smile, "I can't earn it, that's my ability, the shopkeeper just says that he can't lend it to me." ”
For this kind of black-hearted businessman, she didn't have anything to say to him, just take what they needed from each other, and when they get through this difficulty, there should be no intersection in the future.
Borrowing money is enough once.
If it weren't for the restaurant this time, she really liked it very much, and she was very optimistic about the development prospects of doing business in that land, and she would not have come to borrow usury.
Doubling the interest is outrageous than borrowing from a loan shark!
If it weren't for the fact that there was only such a money bank in the town, she would have doubted the legitimacy of this money bank!
Zhu Xingwang said, "Come to the bank to borrow money, borrow a hundred taels of silver, and at least take a mortgage worth fifty taels of property, have you brought it?" ”
Gu Rao took out the title deed.
"Do you see this?"
Zhu Xingwang took a look and then shook his head.
"Your three acres of land are worth a maximum of twenty taels of silver, and I will lend you a maximum of forty taels of silver, and the short-term interest will be a little higher than the long-term, and it will rise by two percent."
"Are you sure you'll only borrow for two months?"
The corners of Gu Rao's mouth twitched fiercely.
Is this really a money bank, not a place to grab money?
What an exaggeration!
Which wronged boss dares to borrow money from them?
"According to your will, I will borrow forty taels of silver from you, and I will pay you back eighty-eight taels of silver in two months?"
Zhu Xingwang's eyes were surprised.
"You figured it out so quickly?"
"Wait a minute, I'll do the math."
He has been a shopkeeper for so many years, and he has to deal with money every day, and his arithmetic ability is stronger than that of ordinary people.
"Eighty-eight taels of silver, indeed."
Gu Rao's eyes were different.
There is admiration and appreciation, but more regret, but unfortunately, if it is a man, it can be hired as a bookkeeper.
Gu Rao, "......"
It's good, they can rob the money, but they are willing to lend her a little.
But the price of this borrowing money is too great.
She was persuaded to quit after three days of success and was eager to do everything to get the restaurant, and she was not as eager to get the restaurant as before.
People sometimes really have to do what they can.
"I'm not borrowing, farewell."
Zhu Xingwang was unhurried.
"The rules in the money bank can't be broken, if you give a special case to one person, after the others know, they will also follow the exception, so the interest must not be less for you, but if you borrow for a year, I can lend you a hundred taels of silver, and then you will be given more grace for a month to repay the money."
Gu Rao shook her head.
"I can't afford it yet."
After coming out of Qianzhuang, Gu Rao was a little depressed, when she came over, she still had some hopes, but she didn't expect to touch her nose.
"Master, why are you here?"
"Come save money?"
Gu Rao looked behind her, and it was the apprentice who was a round older than her some time ago who was coming this way.
"Come borrow money."
Gao Caitong was stunned.
"Didn't you get three hundred and five taels of silver the last time you sold jewelry? It's running out so quickly, and you still don't need to borrow money from the bank? ”
"How much to borrow?"
"Why don't you come to me? I'm your apprentice, and if you want to borrow money, as long as I can afford it, I won't lend it to you. ”
