Chapter 5: Salute before Soldiers
"I am Liu Youcai, the manager of Yuantai Bank, last year your father Xu Dawei borrowed three hundred taels of silver in our bank, and saw that the loan was about to expire, but I heard that the shopkeeper Xu was missing, so we went to verify the situation. ”
"You see, it's an IOU. This guy named Liu Youcai took out a note and showed it to Xu Yang.
Xu Yang saw that this IOU was written on May 18 last year, and in addition to the signature of his cheap father Xu Dawei, there was also a bright red handprint at the bottom.
The IOU stated that the loan of 300 taels of silver was 8 cents of interest, and after a year, it was repaid with interest, and it was agreed that if the loan was not repaid when it expired, Xu's Liquor Store would be owned by Yuantai Qianzhuang.
Xu Yang's heart sank, uncle, he was really afraid of something, and it came very quickly, and a creditor came to the door early in the morning.
Counting the fingers, there are still nearly two months left before 18 May, to be exact, there are still 58 days left, and a total of 588 taels of this loan will have to be repaid after it expires.
Xu Yang's whole person is not good.
Nima, others are pit fathers, but he has become a pit son.
When he settled the accounts yesterday, he didn't know that this debt was eight cents of interest, but now when he calculates it, he has an extra two hundred and eighty-eight taels of interest out of thin air, which is also too special.
"Steward Liu, my father is not missing, he just went out and will be back in a while, can this money be repaid after a while?" Xu Yang smiled at Liu Youcai.
There were only fifty-eight days left, and Xu Yang, who only had a dozen taels of silver in his pocket, where could he find such a large sum of money to repay the loan?
"Brother Xu, you see, the IOU is written in black and white with the repayment date, and I can't do anything about it. Liu Youcai looked helpless.
"Steward Liu...... "Xu Yang still wants to fight for it again."
But the fat man who was standing next to Liu Youcai wearing a royal blue satin waved his hand impatiently: "Don't be long-winded, there are still fifty-eight days, and one more day will not be successful, Liu is in charge, if this kid can't pay back the money by then, ask him to roll up the burden for me immediately and get out." ”
"Yes, young owner. Liu Youcai bent down and bowed slightly, turned around and said to Xu Yang: "Brother Xu, let's salute first and then soldier, you better hurry up and raise money, if you can't pay the money at that time, you have to be ready to move." ”
"What do you want to do? This is Taiping Town, do you still want to bully people?"
"This little brother, it is a matter of course to repay debts, how can this be called bullying?" Liu Youcai's face also turned cold.
"Uncle Xu borrowed the money, you should ask Uncle Xu for it, what kind of ability is it to bully us children. The little fish, which was half a head shorter than the second egg, also puffed up its small chest and stood forward.
"Little guy, the truth of the father's debt repayment makes sense. Liu Youcai sneered.
"Don't go too far, our Brother Yang is a master disciple of the Canglong Sect. ”
Liu Youcai flicked the IOU in his hand and replied disdainfully: "Don't say it's a senior disciple of Canglongmen, it's useless even if the Heavenly King Laozi comes, we have an IOU in our hands." ”
If it weren't for the fact that this kid named Xu Yang had entered the Canglong Gate, how could he have the time to grind with a few half-sized boys?
Although Canglongmen is not one of the eight major sects, it has cultivated several young masters with good qualifications in recent years, and it can be regarded as famous in the rivers and lakes.
Of course, the backer behind their Yuantai Qianzhuang is the Ming Sword Tower, one of the eight major sects in the rivers and lakes, and it is not false at all, but more is better than less, Liu Youcai doesn't want to make extraneous branches.
"You ......"
"Alright, little fish. Xu Yang asked Xiaoyu not to say more, and then said to Liu Youcai: "Steward Liu, there are still fifty-eight days, it's early, please go back!"
The other party refused to be accommodating at all, and it was clear that they were coming for this store, and they just said that it was useless, so it was better to save some saliva and keep it to moisten their throats.
After sending the two plague gods away, the Xu wine shop fell silent.
"Brother Yang, I have one hundred and sixty-three yuan at home, and I will go back and get it for you later. Xiao Yu, who was only thirteen years old, said with a serious face.
The second egg who was standing on the side also spoke: "Brother Yang, I still have ninety-eight yuan at home......
"You two boys, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you have saved a lot of private money. Xu Yang smiled and rubbed Xiaoyu's head, "Brother Yang has received it, but the money is still kept for you to marry a daughter-in-law in the future, and I will find a way to repay the money owed to Yuantai Qianzhuang." ”
Every time he slaughters dogs, these two friends who have been chasing chickens and dogs with him since they were children really have nothing to say to him.
Their family is not rich, and it is estimated that they have accumulated that little pocket money for a long time, but in the face of a huge debt of more than five hundred taels, this money is of no use at all.
Zhang Tianxiang, who was still holding a bowl of porridge in his hand, was in a very awkward situation, he opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't know how to speak.
He is now a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, he can't protect himself, he can't even take out half a copper plate in his pocket, and he talks some nonsense with empty white teeth, which is not his style.
Xu Yang, who was already having a headache, turned his head and saw Zhang Tianxiang holding the bowl in a daze, and his head hurt even more, "The porridge is cold, why don't you hurry up and eat it?"
I couldn't think of any way to make money for a while, Xu Yang simply didn't think much about it, and took one step at a time, and there must be a way before the car reached the mountain.
Before the reward of a primary treasure chest in the system, he was disturbed by the two debt collectors just now, and he didn't have time to open it yet, if this treasure chest can open something rare, maybe it can be exchanged for a few dollars to alleviate the current debt pressure.
As soon as Xu Yang's thoughts were concentrated, he immediately entered the system, and saw that on the system page, there was an extra inventory.
In the inventory, there is a bronze treasure chest, which looks quite good.
[Primary Treasure Chest]: A random primary treasure will be opened, please confirm whether it is opened?
Xu Yang clicked "yes", and the treasure chest disappeared immediately.
Where the treasure chest disappeared, there was a burst of brilliant light, and a moment later, five plants with leaves slowly rose from a colorful halo
When I looked at it, I saw that under these five plants, the words "tomato seedlings" were written.
Xu Yang's face suddenly darkened.
Nima's, his cheap dad who has never met cheated him, and now even this broken system is tricking him, and a few tomato seedlings can be called treasures?
At this time, the cold voice of the system sounded in Xu Yang's mind again: The host has completed the [Open Primary Treasure Chest] task, and the exchange area has been upgraded to the first level.
Xu Yang clicked on the exchange area, and saw that the exchange area, which could only be exchanged for MSG, had already had a lot of exchangeable items.
The first thing that came into his sight was a set of kitchenware combinations of firewood and wok stoves.
Xu Yang was overjoyed, this set of kitchenware was what he urgently needed now.
