Chapter 56: Mind Understanding
"Brother Zhao, Zhao Xiucai, Master Zhao, wronged, in broad daylight, how dare I rob someone, I'm just here to collect debts, everything is a misunderstanding. Huo Daya cried and begged for mercy, and when he finished speaking, he knew that something was wrong.
"Oh, so you're here to ask for the fifty taels of silver?" Zhao Dagui looked at him and said playfully.
Huo Daya was stunned for a moment, knowing that he had said the wrong thing, so he raised his hand and slapped himself, and said: "It's me who is dizzy, how dare I ask for any debt, I will go back to the village, and I will not hang around in front of you again." ”
"Hmph, if you want to retreat now, it's too late. Zhao Dagui sneered and stretched out his hand in front of Huo Daya: "What about the things, bring them to me." ”
"What is it?" Huo Daya understood as soon as he said a word, so he took out a few pieces of paper from his arms and handed them to Zhao Dagui to see.
He came to collect the debt this time, and the IOU was naturally brought with him.
Zhao Dagui picked up a few IOUs, an indescribable feeling surged in his heart, feeling a little relieved, and a little emotional, after reading it carefully, he handed it to Zhao Xiaohu and Zhao Xiaomei beside him.
"Are these IOUs?" Zhao Dagui asked.
"That's it. After reading it, Zhao Xiaohu took out one of them, which was the IOU of twenty taels of silver he signed at the beginning, which should have expired in November last year, but it was only because Huo Daya was not there that it has been delayed until now.
"Little Tiger, Little Sister, go to the kitchen to borrow a fire. Zhao Dagui said.
After a while, Zhao Xiaohu and Zhao Xiaomei brought burning firewood from the kitchen, found an oil lamp to light it, and brought it over.
"You guys deal with it. After thinking about it, Zhao Dagui handed the paper to his younger brother and sister.
Zhao Xiaohu and Zhao Xiaomei were stunned for a moment, reacted, and burned all the strongholds with the fire of oil lamps.
When all these IOUs were burned to ashes, the three brothers and sisters of the Zhao family glanced at each other, and they all saw the meaning of relief and relief from the faces of the other two.
"Brother Zhao, Master Zhao, the IOUs have been given to you, you have a lot of them, just let us go." Huo Daya said mournfully on the ground.
Zhao Dagui sneered slightly in his heart, let you go, it's not that simple, Zhao Dagui actually knows it in his heart, don't look at Huo Daya, now he has a blue nose and swollen face and looks pitiful, but in the village before, he gave people usury and then collected debts, and the methods were cruel, and I don't know how many people have been ruined.
Although there are many gangsters in the world who give usury, with Zhao Dagui's ability, they will not find out and punish each of them, but those who commit crimes in their own hands must not be let go.
"Hehe, Huo Daya, you underestimate me, do you think I want to covet your dozens of taels of silver this time?
Someone come, take fifty taels of silver and give it to this Huo Daya brother. Zhao Dagui said with a smile, and immediately someone went to the cabinet to take the silver and handed it to Zhao Dagui.
"This silver is given to you, which is considered to be exchanged for the previous usury, can you look at the amount?"
"How dare I ask for your money, as long as you let me go, I will be grateful. Huo Daya thought that Zhao Dagui had tricked him, and hurriedly said.
"If you want to take it, you can take it, do you want people to go out and say that I Zhao Dagui owes money and doesn't pay it back?" Zhao Dagui insisted on asking Huo Daya to take the money.
Huo Daya pushed a few times, and saw that Zhao Dagui's intention to give money was very strong, so he took the money half-pushed and half-took the money on the spot, and he was also a little happy in his heart, this Zhao Dagui somehow entered the city and became a master, and raised a large group of wolf-like familymen, it really hurts to beat people, but it seems that he is quite disciplined and will not do anything to swallow money.
In this way, I was only beaten up for no reason today, but I can still get back enough of the money I lent.
Of course, Zhao Dagui only gave fifty taels of silver that should be repaid in November, and the three months from December to February, although he failed to repay the money because Huo Daya was not there, he should also give some money, but Huo Daya didn't dare to say anything about collecting debts now.
"Oh, by the way, how did you get to the county seat today, and you happened to meet my brother and sister?" Zhao Dagui asked more and more kindly when he saw Huo Daya taking the money.
"I found out a few days ago that your family of three moved to live in the county, and I came over this morning to wait for you to go out.
I never thought that I would see your second young master and third young lady go out without seeing you, and I was afraid of disturbing your house, so I followed the two of you across two streets before talking to them.
I didn't have any ideas, just the villagers reminisced about the old days, but I didn't expect these two to turn around and run, I wanted to explain to me, so I chased them all the way to this yard, and then I had a little misunderstanding with the housekeeper and was beaten.
I can only blame it for not being thoughtful, it's all my fault. Huo Daya thought that today's matter was over, so he nodded and said.
"In other words, if you can't block the door at my house, you will follow my brother and sister, and chase me all the way to my house, and then push down and injure my housekeeper Wu, right?" Zhao Dagui changed his face faster than he turned a book, and his face suddenly turned cold, and he asked with a sneer.
"How can this be said like that?" Huo Daya was horrified, and just as he wanted to defend himself, he felt that someone had punched him hard in the stomach, and the pain was unbearable for a while, and he couldn't stand up straight.
Zhao Dagui punched Huo Daya hard, and he was still angry, so he beat him violently until he was almost exhausted.
As soon as he stopped, he wanted to wipe his hand on the placket, but the housekeeper next to him had already stepped forward and handed over a clean handkerchief, which made Zhao Dagui, who had never enjoyed this kind of treatment, stunned.
"Steward Wu, this madman stalked and beat my younger brothers and sisters, and injured you again, so you must not be spared easily.
You take my name thorn, escort these people to the county office, and let Sun Zhutou help me punish these bastards!"
"Yes, sir. Steward Wu, the one who had been pushed down by Huo Daya before, hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and saluted, and made a face with the young strong men who were watching the excitement next to him, and helped twist the people on the ground to the official mansion.
"Wronged, Master Zhao..."Only those people on the ground understood, and they couldn't help crying and begging for mercy, but Zhao Dagui's heart was as hard as iron, and he would never be easily shaken.
There are also old and serious dart masters in the Fuwei Dart Bureau, and they can't help but secretly shake their heads when they see this, the most taboo thing for the so-called rich big families is the behavior of others squatting on their own families, not to mention that Huo Daya's gang also tracked the young master and young lady of this family, and injured the housekeeper, so it would not be spared.
As for whether there is a debt relationship or something, Zhao Dagui has already returned the money to them, and when he arrives at the county office, those three-board officials will only treat it as if there is no such thing when they catch the head, and they have to find ways to squeeze out the money in the hands of these people, in short, Huo Daya's group is over.
