Chapter 1538: Selling Words
"Sir, everyone. Since you don't want to say it, the future should be fine." After drinking the tea, Mrs. Li stood up, "It's not too early, so I won't disturb you anymore, so I'll say goodbye."
Luo Guan sent him out, "Old lady, Miss Li, walk slowly."
Watching the grandparents and grandchildren leave, he smiled but did not return to the room. Instead, he returned to the yard to sit in the twilight.
Mrs. Li was supported by her granddaughter and was silent again and again, whispering: "Qingwen, you must know that falling flowers and flowing water are unintentionally undesirable. Mr. Luo is noble and honest, don't let others make things difficult for you."
Li Qingwan bit her lip, "Grandma..." She just shouted, and her eyes turned red. At this moment, footsteps sounded, and two foreign men walked towards her.
Jiang Tai took his commander Cheng Li and stood there a few steps, "In Xia Jiang Tai, he is Jiang Yue's uncle. In front of him, Mrs. Li and Miss Li should be Mrs. Li? My sister and nephew are here, so I have troubled you. Thank you for your care."
The temperament of the powerful generations of powerful people, plus the high position and the blessing of human luck, is extraordinary in every move.
Mrs. Li thought of what Mr. Luo said just now, and her eyes lit up, "The governor of Jiang County is so serious. The Li family has been doing business and medical care for generations. It is a family motto, and it is a matter of duty."
"The quality of the Li family is noble, and Jiang Tai admires it." He exchanged a few more greetings and said goodbye to each other. After all, it was getting dark and it was inconvenient to talk to the outsider.
Jiang Tai's eyes wandered a little on the back, and Cheng Li whispered: "Sir, as far as his subordinates know, Miss Li is not married yet."
"Don't talk nonsense!" Jiang Tai laughed and cursed, turned around and left.
Soon, he came outside Luo Guanyuan and said respectfully: "Jiang Tai, pay homage to sir."
"Please come in."
When I pushed the door open, it was dark and a few stars appeared. But the gentleman in the courtyard was particularly eye-catching in the darkness, just like a deep autumn night. He did not dare to break into this place and wanted to retreat in front of the gentleman.
Jiang Tai felt a little anxious, and felt more and more unfathomable, "Sir, Jiang Tai is here to say goodbye. Dongyang County has been raining heavily, causing water to flow upstream of Qilian River, which has flooded several counties. The bureaucrats from Dayong are greedy and embezzled disaster relief supplies to trigger civil unrest. This is the opportunity I have been waiting for for a long time."
After a brief hesitation, he gritted his teeth, "Before leaving, Jiang Tai begs to give advice to sanitation to all the people in the world!"
Luo Guan shook his head, "I don't want to interfere too much in humanity. You just need to remember that you will do your best to remember everything and do not forget your true heart."
"This...thank you, sir." Jiang Tai smiled bitterly. When he met for the first time, Luo Guan had already refused. He was still trying to speak out even if he didn't give up.
But soon, he calmed down and bowed solemnly, "Jiang Tai bid farewell to Mr. Jiang, I don't know what to expect when he sees him again, but Jiang Tai promised to Mr. Mr. that if he can shape the country again, he will put the people first!"
After saying that, he turned around and strode away.
Cheng Li was excited and followed up quickly after the salute. He didn't understand why Mr. Luo was obviously a capable person, so he was willing to stay here. A real man was born in the world, so he should give up his wife and children. He was in the present moment!
After leaving the yard, the two of them kept walking, went straight out of the East Road yard and got on the carriage.
"Sir, the third camp of Fenlong, Black Hawk, and Hunting Clouds have been secretly set off, and messengers from all sides have also been sent out. At that time, as long as you climb up and shout, you will respond like clouds. The world of Dayong is shaking, and it is not difficult to get it!" Cheng Li spoke in a deep voice, breathing heavily.
Jiang Tai leaned on the carriage, closed his eyes slightly and said "Yeah". After years of hard work, all this has been deduced countless times. No accidents will happen if you act according to the plan.
But for some reason, Jiang Tai's heart was lingering at this moment, with a hint of uneasiness and fear, as if something was going to happen. Therefore, when he said goodbye today, he knew that the teacher was not happy, and he still spoke again.
It was expected that the teacher would reject it, but where did this uneasiness come from? Jiang Tai smiled bitterly, raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows. Or, if something big is approaching, he would have thought too much.
The carriage was "gululu" moving forward, and a large number of guards were holding knives on the side. When they were about to leave the city, they suddenly heard some noise.
Someone sneered loudly, "Weekly Account, are you crazy about being poor? This mere word of bullshit, you have to pay a hundred taels of gold?! Even this piece of paper is made of pure gold, it is not OK!"
"Tell you, either pay back the debts owed to the gambling house today, or sign the documents and pay the debts with your Zhou family's ancestral home!"
The son who was a gambler, the powerless father, the arrogant thug, the calligraphy and paintings that paid the bill... This plot attracted a lot of people. Most of the long streets were blocked, and the carriage had to stop. The guards holding knives looked at the surroundings cautiously and fearlessly, not daring to slack off.
Jiang Tai opened his eyes and frowned slightly, "Cheng Li, what happened?"
Soon, Cheng Li reported, "Sir, I have a gambling house to force debts, but it seems that this family is the one who owes the money he borrows. If this matter is in trouble, he can only admit that he is unlucky."
"However, this family is also interesting, so they took a piece of paper and wrote a word on it, and they had to pay a deposit of 100 taels of gold. I don't know if they were scared crazy."
A piece of paper and a word cost a hundred taels of gold?
Jiang Tai became interested, pushed open the carriage window and looked down at the crowd. The pale middle-aged man should be the male owner of this family. He was holding a piece of white paper in his hand, with the word "An" written on it.
Swish-
For a moment, Jiang Tai's uneasiness and fear disappeared in an instant. He narrowed his eyes and his expression showed solemnity.
After a brief silence, he said lightly: "Cheng Li, take one hundred taels of gold and buy that decree."
"Ah?!" Cheng Li was shocked and nodded quickly, "Yes, I'll go now."
He strode forward, took off his servant's clothes, changed into a black robe, and held a long sword in his hand, wearing a fierce aura. The crowd hurriedly retreated, how dare he block his way.
"Brother Zhou, my master is interested in it. I would like to buy the calligraphy and painting in your hand for a hundred taels of gold, are you willing?"
Opposite, the few people who looked at the gambling house with a look on their faces, their eyes lit up, "Weekly account, you are really lucky. This is broken... a word, someone actually bought it, why are you standing there? Why don't you deliver it quickly and pay it back with the gold, otherwise we will do it!"
Zhou's accountant was mournful. He was forced to shout out the word "Selling a hundred taels of gold". But now someone is willing to buy it, but he can't bear it, and he just feels blood in his heart.
"Dad, I was wrong, and I will never dare to gamble again! You should sell the word, save me, otherwise they will kill me!"
The son, who had a bruised nose and swollen face, hugged his thighs and howled.
Zhou's accountant's hand shook, he was only one son, and he loved him since childhood. If he had lost even him, why would he talk about heirlooms?
"Okay... the master, one hundred taels of gold, this character... is yours..."
Cheng Li took out the silver notes, "I hope that Dayong official silver has 100 taels of gold, and the three major silver accounts will be exchanged as soon as they see the bills, and you and I will clear the money and goods."
He took the words, turned around and left.
The carriage bypassed the crowd and headed out of the city.
"Weekly account, okay, I didn't expect that there was a treasure at your home." The person from the gambling house got the silver notes and checked them correctly, and bowed with a smile, "Young Master Zhou, you have offended me before. We also use wages to do business. Don't be surprised, and you have time to continue playing."
Zhou's accountant was so angry that he trembled all over, "Go, you guys go!"
"Hmph!" Several people in the casino sneered and left with great swagger.
The Zhou family son got up and covered his chest and grinned, "Dad, I'm hungry. They gave me a hard steamed bun all day yesterday and asked my mother to cook."
The weekly account is shaking, "Sad son! Sad son!"
