Chapter 229 (1/2)
The man named Ji Laoba grabbed the whip from the servant's hand and slapped Deng Jianzhang: ”how crazy is it to owe me money? It's written in black and white on the note. Each of you borrowed 500 thousand liang of silver from me to invest in the development of sand land. You have agreed on a ten day deadline. It's almost time to repay, so you want to default? No matter what general he is or what County Lord, my silver is not from the strong wind. ”
When the bodyguards who patrol the city see a group of troublemakers, they come forward to ask.
Deng Jianzhang came forward and cried: ”Jun ye, take us to see you chiyun general! It's going to be fatal! ”
Ji Laoba changed a smiling face: ”Jun ye, five of them owe money to the villain and want to pay for it. Since ancient times, I have always been in debt and paid back. I'm justified wherever I go. ”
Deng Jianzhang pressed forward and begged, ”Jun ye, don't believe him, take us to see general chiyun!”
The head of the guard roared: ”it's going to break up soon. Don't make trouble in the city. General chiyun, how can I have time to deal with your affairs? Now the border is full of waste. The general has to do everything himself. You have to deal with this little thing yourself. ”
Deng Jianzhang grabs the bodyguard and doesn't give up. The bodyguard has no choice but to escort a group of people to the residence of chiyun Yuexuan.
Chiyun Yuexuan takes Murong Zhining's hand and comes down from the city wall. They go to their residence with a smile.
Murong Zhining watched a group of people pushing and bustling downstairs: ”general, your trouble is coming again. The general has to set up a county yamen. Otherwise, the general will be busy with the construction of Yongning, the work of the county magistrate and the lawsuit. If you go on like this, don't the general be tired to death? ”
Chiyun Yuexuan said with a smile: ”Ning'er's husband is just a laborious life! Let's go, don't you think the lady also likes to settle a lawsuit? ”
Deng Jianzhang saw chiyun Yuexuan from afar and said respectfully: ”the grassroots see chiyun general and chiyun lady! General, this man is the swindler that the grass-roots people said. He forced the grass-roots people and their partners with the means of fraud and intimidation, and signed a high loan. Cao min didn't take a cent of his silver. He chided the general and learned from him! ”
The man named Ji Laoba stepped forward and saluted respectfully: ”the grass people, Ji Fengyuan, kowtow to general chiyun and his wife!” He knelt on the ground and kowtowed: ”these rogues borrowed money from the grassroots to develop the sand and agreed to return it in ten days. I'm afraid that they would look at the repayment deadline and come to the door in advance to let them raise money according to the regulations. I didn't expect these rogue people, but they all agreed to pay for it! Please make up your mind! ”
The front of the building is full of people watching the bustle. Chiyun Yuexuan said to the bodyguard, ”take the creditor and the five borrowers to our general's study. The rest of the idle people will be dismissed.”
Chiu Yun Yuexuan helps Murong Zhining to go upstairs as if no one is around. ”Be careful, lady. Don't get to the skirt.”
In the study, Ji Fengyuan took out five IOUS and handed them to chiyun Yuexuan respectfully: ”please have a look at them, general chiyun. This is the first day of sand bidding. These five people issued a receipt to the grassroots people. They said that they needed cash for bidding, but their money was not available in other banks for a while, so they needed to borrow the money of the grass-roots people in case of emergency. It's agreed to return it in ten days, with interest of two cents a month. Today, Murong Zhining takes the IOU from chiyun Yuexuan and watches it carefully. Her long and curly eyelashes flashed, attracting the eyes of chiyun Yuexuan: ”lady, do you see anything unreasonable in this IOU?”
Murong Zhining looks at Ji Fengyuan with questioning eyes, and Ji Fengyuan subconsciously dodges her fierce eyes: ”tell general's wife, this note is signed willingly after they get the silver. It also states the purpose of the silver. There won't be any fake, will there? ”
Chiyun Yuexuan and Murong Zhining exchanged eyes, chiyun Yuexuan said: ”I have a basic idea in my mind, you all go back first. Isn't the silver repayment deadline not yet arrived? I will investigate myself! ”
Ji Fengyuan said anxiously: ”general chiyun, some of them are going to depend on it today. The grass-roots people believe they can't! In case they run away, who is going to go with Cao min's money? ”
Chiu Yun Yuexuan said impatiently: ”you dare to borrow their silver at the beginning, you must not be afraid of their debt. The merchants who do a lot of borrowing are not afraid of not getting back the money. Besides, isn't there still two days to pay for the silver? Even if you take the receipt, you have no reason to force others to repay in advance. Besides, these rich businessmen are the owners of sandland. Now, Sandland is not the original price. How can they run for this silver? ”
Ji Fengyuan arched: ”the general is right, but the grass-roots people still have doubts. When the grass-roots people lent money to them, they were completely in trust and didn't ask them for collateral. However, now several of them are in debt, which makes the grass-roots people very scared. Ask the general to temporarily transfer their ownership of the sand to the grassroots. When they pay back the silver, the grassroots will return the land lease. ”
Chiding yunyuexuan: ”I'm not the county Lord, how can I still manage your mortgage? Well, since there is a debt dispute between you two sides, Mr. Deng will first hand over the land lease of Shahai to general Ben for safekeeping, and then, when the case is cleared, return it as appropriate. ”
Deng Jianzhang was afraid that the title deed would be robbed by Ji Fengyuan. After hearing the words of chiyun Yuexuan, he was eager to get: ”the lives of several people of Caomin will be handed over to general chiyun. Caomin can trust general chiyun. This is the whole family of the grass-roots people. I hope the general can give the grass-roots people justice. ”Chiyun Yuexuan nodded his head frequently: ”I will definitely give you both a satisfactory answer, you all go back!”
Send off a few people, scold cloud to jump Xuan to hold up the chin of Murong Zhi Ning, evil Mei ground smile: ”how does the empress want to break this lawsuit?”
Murong Zhining's eyes flashed with a bright light: ”general, if you want to break the case, you have to smooth things out first. Shall we visit Majing's Bank? ”
