135 Debt Collection

Sang Fuyue and Sang Xuanyue had already received the news that their younger brother had set off for the south, and even the brother and sister each had a letter sent by the Qing'er trustee.

Sang Fuyue touched the handwriting on it lovingly, the corners of her mouth were cracked, as if she wanted to laugh, but her eyes were slightly red.

After a long time, Sang Fuyue sighed, "This kid is indeed more talented than me." ”

"Where did you see this, big brother?"

"You can see it from here." Sang Fuyue said, "When I was Qing'er's age, the big characters were not as good as his writing......"

Sang Fuyue's eyebrows and eyes were full of emotion, but Sang Xuanyue looked at the eldest brother in a daze when she heard this, "...... Big brother, do you think of something again? ”

Sang Fuyue shook her head in anticipation, "No." It's just how I feel, but I don't think it's bad. ”

Sang Twist Yue regretted in his heart. The eldest brother has been thinking of his parents' voices since that night, and although he has had headaches at night, he has never remembered anything again. But after the eldest brother entered the house, he also said that he was familiar with several places. I don't know if this situation is good or bad, but they are powerless to change it, so they can only silently pray in their hearts, hoping that the eldest brother can get better as soon as possible and can remember more things as soon as possible.

These flashed in Sang Xuanyue's heart, but his face was not anxious at all. She said to her eldest brother, "There is still a lot of homework in the family when the eldest brother was a child, and the eldest brother is at Qing'er's age, and his handwriting is indeed not as good-looking as Qing'er." ”

I have to say that some things do depend on talent.

Qing'er is talented, and secondly, she follows Sang to send people under the fence, and she usually can't even get out. He had a lot of time to read and read. In addition, he is more sensible than ordinary children, and Su Jin and the nurse always instill in him that only by reading can he change his situation and take his sister to live a good life, Qing'er will work harder and harder.

As for Sang Fuyue, even if his congenital conditions are very good, he is taught by a famous teacher, and the pen, ink, paper and inkstone at home are even better. But he is not qualitative, and his temperament is a little stubborn. Therefore, those who can do perfunctory things will never be serious, and those who can write once will never write twice.

This is also the grandfather and father staring at each other with good eyes, and only then did he learn to look like it, otherwise, let him let himself go, I am afraid that he will not see the word.

However, there is one thing that has to be mentioned, that is, although Qing'er's handwriting is better than that of Sang Fuyue when he was young, his strength is insufficient, and the font is soft and muscleless. This is related to the weakness of others, and of course, there are also reasons for improper training.

Sang Fuyue looked at the handwriting carefully and said, "I still have to practice my wrists, my father used to let me hang sandbags on my wrists to practice......

As soon as these words came out, the brother and sister paused at the same time.

Sang Fuyue always blurted out some old past at some point, and when he had to pursue it carefully, he would have too many headaches and couldn't think of anything else.

The brother and sister were silent at the same time, and after a while, Sang Xuanyue spoke, "Don't worry, eldest brother thinks more now than before, which proves that eldest brother is improving." It's just that the eldest brother has been injured for too long, and it will take a long time to recover. "It doesn't even matter if it can't be recovered, as long as the eldest brother is okay.

The brother and sister said something else, and after a while, Sang Fuyue stood up and said, "Sister, get busy first, I'll go collect our family's debts." Qing'er is coming back soon, so it's not good for her younger brother to see the mess at home. ”

When Sang Xuanyue saw him turn around to go out, she quickly stood up and called him, "Big brother...... Don't be heavy-handed, be forgiving and forgiving. ”

Saying these words, it is not the kindness of the Mulberry Moon Woman, who still has mercy for those wicked people who take advantage of the fire to rob. It's just that, in the final analysis, although those people robbed people of money and occupied people's ancestral inheritance, there was no human life involved...... Although this is the result of the help of the ancestors of the Qi family and the elders, if there is no death, there is no death. Therefore, there are some people who have sinned heavily, but if they ask for their lives, the situation will be unfavorable to them.

What's more, the eldest brother is now an official of the imperial court, and his every move is watched. Especially the Minzhou Wang family, the day before yesterday, he heard the people under his eldest brother come to report, saying that he saw the people of the Wang family wandering not far away.

The Wang family wants to grab the eldest brother's pigtails and want to rectify the eldest brother's anger, if the eldest brother has done it, isn't it sending the ready-made handle to someone to catch?

Sang Xuanyue was afraid that the eldest brother would not hear her words in her heart, and she was even more afraid that the eldest brother would be really ruthless in order to avenge her and her younger brother, so she said anxiously, "It will be the death of my parents in a short time, and the eldest brother will be merciful, just to accumulate virtue for his parents, okay?" ”

Sang Fuyue finally replied with the word "good", and then strode out of the flower hall.

Waiting for the eldest brother to leave, Sang Xuanyue also went back to the house to lie down.

She was not in good spirits, she was very sleepy these days, and she fell asleep after lying in bed for a while.

Then, she slept quickly, but she didn't sleep well. Because today she rarely dreamed during the day, and she actually dreamed of Shen Tingjun.

Shen Tingjun in the dream frowned at him with a sword brow and an expressionless face. His already indifferent appearance was even more ruthless, looking at her indifferently, as if he was scrutinizing, and as if he was brewing thunderous anger.

His eyes were too sharp and intimidating, and Sang Xuanyue's heart beat like a drum, and he woke up directly from his dream.

After waking up for a while, she couldn't come back to her senses, and everyone was stunned.

Su Jin handed her water, she took it, but her hand trembled uncontrollably, and the warm water spilled out directly, and even her clothes were wet.

Su Jin hurriedly went to see if she was burned, but Sang Zhuoyue suddenly said to Su Jin, "I dreamed of Master Hou." ”

Su Jin's movements froze in place.

Originally, she wanted to ask the girl, why did she look so trance-like? But after listening to the girl's words, she understood everything.

Because they wanted to hide the child in the girl's womb, they were on guard against the Hou Ye in every way. The girl must be very guilty about Master Hou, right? And Shen Hou is not a person who can be calculated casually, if he knows that the girl is pregnant with his heir, I don't know if this matter can be good.

Su Jin was also a little panicked in her heart, but she couldn't show it, let alone increase the girl's psychological burden, so she said in a brisk tone, "Let's come out for so long, I don't know if the salt tax case in Minzhou has been investigated, if the investigation is over, Hou Ye should also return to Beijing, right?" ”

Sang twisted the moon and said faintly, "I can't go back." There is another case that should also be handed over to him. He told me before that he wanted to ...... in Minzhou Wait until I get back. ”

……

The inside of the mulberry house is quiet, but the outside is very lively.

The reason is that the eldest son of the Sang family openly met with a few people.

These people are not unknowns, and they are not inconsequential people. They are all harmless little people, but they have one thing in common, that is: they have taken advantage of the fire to rob and use various means to occupy the Sang family's former fertile land, shops and mansions.

These people were the first to have remorse, and after they arrived in Minzhou, they sent prayers and prayers as soon as they arrived.

It's a pity that Sang Fuyue left them dry for half a month, and she didn't meet them.

And with the fermentation of time, Sang Fuyue's identity is no longer a secret, and the information that he killed people on the battlefield is known to everyone on the streets.

Although the eldest prince of the Sang family killed the widows, he made brilliant military exploits. However, what they did in the past made them stand on the opposite side of the Sang family, so what is the difference between them and those Japanese robbers on the battlefield? Aren't they all the objects that the eldest son of the Sang family wants to pay off with all his might?

These people are trembling, living in fear every day, and even some of them are timid, and even their last words have been explained to their families. However, just as they were waiting for the Sang family's thunderous blow, a turning point appeared.

- The eldest prince of the Sang family wants to see them!

Everyone is the Sang family who entered with their heads, and they thought that they would not be able to get out because of this. However, who would have expected that in just a short time of incense, they would come out of the mansion again.

Although they were covered in sweat, their faces were pale, and their legs were weak, they needed to be supported by the subordinates of the Sang Mansion, and all their faces and bodies were lost at this moment. But, at the very least, their lives were saved.

There were many people waiting outside the door to watch the excitement, and there were also many people sent by various mansions who were concerned about this matter to wait for news.

Finally, when these people came out, everyone swarmed up and surrounded the five people who had entered.

"How? Is this cup of tea in the Sang family delicious? ”

"What are these elegant people doing? Du Xun, just tell me, does the Sang family want to let you go? ”

"It's all let people in, the Sang family shouldn't have the intention of killing them all."

"Lao Du, you guys are going to talk about it quickly, but you're really in a hurry."

……

But no matter how anxious these people were, Lao Du and the others didn't have the face to say it.

The eldest prince of the Sang family was benevolent and righteous, and he didn't want their lives, and even those who originally planned to sue the officials directly, but because their attitude was quite passable, he decided to let them go.

However, the Sang family's advantage is not so easy to take advantage of.

In addition to returning all the illegally occupied houses, fertile land, shops, etc., in accordance with the regulations written in the "Commercial Regulations", they must also return the profits from the operation of these illegally occupied goods to their owners. These are still small heads, but there is also a big head, that is, according to the provisions of the "Commercial Law", they also have to hand over to the Sang family, and the compensation for the illegally occupied property is ten times the compensation.

That is to say, if the shop they occupy is worth 3,000 taels, and they have earned 5,000 taels from operating this shop over the years, then they must not only return the shop and the 5,000 taels, but also give the sufferer 30,000 taels in compensation.

It's going to break my bones!

But these businessmen didn't dare to complain about the Sang family's harshness, after all, compared to sending officials to sentencing, or even implicating their wives, sons, and grandchildren, this is already the consequence of the Sang family's extrajudicial mercy.

Moreover, the request made by the eldest prince of the Sang family was not deliberately embarrassing them, but acting in accordance with the "Commercial Law". Although one of them added an article to give the benefits to the Sang family, it seems to be too strong. But it is they who are at fault, and it is the other party who is powerful, and they give this money even if they don't give it in order to calm things down. Even to give willingly, to give joyfully.

After all, Sang Gongzi said that as long as the money is in place, this stubble will be revealed.

Therefore, these people will not complain about the Sang family at all, they are only glad at this time, but fortunately, they are the latest to start, and they only get some thin soup to drink. Fortunately, they were not rich and wealthy before, and they only took up a little wealth of the Sang family in a small way. Thinking about their blood, and thinking about the large number of people, I was afraid that they would lose their lives, and suddenly I felt that I was breathing easily.

Before it got dark, these five merchants who had been seen by Sang Fuyue all asked the housekeeper to go to the official mansion and change the contract stored in the yamen.

And the people sent by Sang Fuyue have been waiting for a long time. So, what should have belonged to the Sang family returned to Sang Fuyue's name again.

As for the money that should have been returned, they didn't wait for dark, and all the families sent it to the door for nothing.

The thick pile of silver tickets was packed in the box, and by looking at the thickness, you knew that the amount was no longer a small amount, and Sang Fuyue even said that there were 250,000 taels in it.

Two hundred and fifty thousand taels, this is just a drop in the bucket, so how much should the entire Sang family's property have?

Even if he knew that the Sang family was a big bookseller on the surface, there were many other businesses behind him, and there were even shops on a certain street, all of which were owned by the Sang family. However, if there is no concrete thing, I can't imagine how huge the wealth is, but if 250,000 taels can only be called a drop in the bucket, then she will not be sleepy at all.

Chang Minjun looked at Sang Fuyue with burning eyes, and Sang Fuyue said, "How many are there, don't you have an account book?" I've given you all the account books, no matter how bad it is, you can still ask about it. ”

Sang Xuanyue pursed her lips and smiled, "Don't care if you have more money or less money, when the time comes, you will take it back, and let your sister-in-law take it." ”

Chang Minjun doesn't argue with her about this. She is not the kind of person with shallow eyelids, and her husband is not going to take advantage of her younger siblings.

Moreover, they have been absent for many years, and the family is all screwing and carrying; And Fuyue joined the army, and in the future, it can only be the uncle who shoulders the heavy responsibility of revitalizing the portal. At the very least, eighty percent of the property in this family must be divided into younger brothers and sisters, otherwise she and Xianggong will not be able to pass the level in their hearts.

But it's still the same sentence, now that the things haven't come back, it's too early to say this, or wait for the family's debts to be collected, and then talk about other things.

On this day, the people of Jinju watched the liveliness of the day. And the next day, the even more excitement came.

The reason was that the Sang family went to the yamen and beat the drum and handed the paper to the yamen. According to the rumors of those who were fortunate enough to witness it, the pile of papers was so thick that it would cost fifty or sixty people to be accused.

In fact, the number of people who have been sued is more than 100.

In addition to accusing these people of embezzling the Sang family's money in various names, the Sang family also directly gave various personal and material evidence.

This is lively, the people of Jinju have been looking forward to it since the day the Sang brothers and sisters entered the city, and now it can be regarded as making them look forward to it.

So it was spread from ten to hundred, but in a few moments, the people came running from all directions, and they were all crowded at the gate of the county government.

If you can overlook the entire Jinju Fortress at this time, you can see the flow of people converging and colliding like a torrent. And the entrance of the prefect's office was black, and it was tightly blocked two miles away. This magnificent scene has never been encountered once in a hundred years.
