Chapter 24 Debt Collection

Zhao Yu walked down from the second floor with a embroidered spring knife in his hand.

Everyone was puzzled and thought that some dish was not to the taste of the Qianhu adults and that they wanted to trouble the shopkeeper.

"Have you eaten and drank enough?"

Zhao Yu looked around and said coldly: "Now that you have eaten and drank enough, it is time for you to follow me and do some work!"

When the warriors heard this, they all put down their wine glasses and chopsticks and picked up their sabers.

They are now soldiers under Zhao Yu's rule, so naturally they will do whatever Zhao Yu says.

"Sir... Sir, it's only five hundred taels, it's not..."

Lu Jianxing's face turned green as he chased him downstairs. Could this guy really be looking for trouble with Zhang Ying for five hundred taels of silver?

"Shut up, you loser!"

Zhao Yu glared at Lu Jianxing, and then waved to Jin Xiaochuan behind him.

At this moment, Jin Xiaochuan, after two ounces of wine, was in an excited state of mind. When he saw Zhao Yu waving to him, he quickly stepped forward.

"grown ups!"

"Well, do you know where that bitch's mansion is?"

Zhao Yu looked at Jin Xiaochuan and asked in a calm tone.

"Nature knows!"

Jin Xiaochuan's expression perked up. He had long disliked Zhang Ying.

It's just that before, the three brothers were just subordinates in Jinyiwei and didn't even have a decent backer.

Now it's better, one look at the newly promoted Qianhu Master in front of me, it seems that he is not a fuel-efficient lamp!

"lead the way!"

Without any unnecessary nonsense, Zhao Yu directly let Jin Xiaochuan lead the way.



There is a curfew in the Imperial City of Kyoto.

After Zhao Yu and his party left the office, they came to Wanjin Building for a feast. It was already curfew time.

But Zhao Yu led a group of people on horseback and walked in the front. When the patrolmen of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division saw the flying fish suit on Zhao Yu, they didn't dare to let go of one more thing.

Jinyiwei was the emperor's domestic slave, and he directly obeyed the emperor's orders. He had the right to kill first and report later.

Moreover, Jin Yiwei's actions do not need to be explained to anyone except the emperor, and no one else is allowed to interfere.

After a smooth journey, the group of people arrived in front of a mansion with three entrances and three exits.

"Sir, this is Zhang Ying's mansion!"

Jin Xiaochuan pointed to the red lacquer door in front of him and said to Zhao Yu excitedly.

The three brothers had been to this place more than once, but never once had he been so excited as now.

Zhao Yu dismounted and walked up the steps to the door of the mansion.

DONG DONG DONG!!

He hit it with several powerful and heavy punches, and soon the side door opened.

Squeak...

An impatient head stuck out, probably because it was too dark, or because Zhao Yu, who was standing at the front door wearing Feiyu uniform, could not be seen from the side door.

The housekeeper only saw the three of Lu Jianxing standing on the steps nearby.

Before the three of them could speak, the housekeeper said impatiently: "Go, go, sir, you have gone to bed. If you need anything, come back tomorrow!"

"Steward Zhang, let's come..."

The moment Lu Jianxing saw the housekeeper, he habitually began to greet him.

"What nonsense are you talking to him about? I brought people here, not to deliver invitations and be a guest!"

Zhao Yu pushed Lu Jianxing away and kicked the housekeeper.

Of course, this kick is just an ordinary kick...

Even so, the forty-year-old housekeeper couldn't withstand Zhao Yu's kick and was directly thrown in.

Jin Xiaochuan was very excited and rushed into the side door, then opened the main door of the nearby mansion.

Zhao Yu walked into the mansion gate swaggeringly.

Good guy!

Seeing the layout and furnishings of the courtyard with the help of the moonlight, to be honest, Zhao Yu felt a little sad.

Come to think of it, he was also a Baihu, and he was also the most well-oiled Inspection Department Baihu in name.

But compared to the mansion in front of me, my home was like a thatched nest.

The courtyard is a large house with three entrances and three exits. In the front yard, there are carved screen walls, rockery corridors, and exotic flowers and plants.

Although this dynasty is not as harsh on official salaries as it was during the Taizu period, it is not as wealthy as it is.

He, Zhang Ying, is from a mere hundred households, and his annual salary is only one hundred and ten taels of silver. How can he get the money to buy such a large family property?!

"Who is that? So brave!!"

After a while, a dozen burly servants came to the front yard carrying a disheveled fat man.

"Zhang Baihu is such a noble man and forgets things. We just met at Jinyiwei last night, so he can't remember Qianhu?"

Zhao Yu walked up to Zhang Ying with a smile and asked lightly: "What? Your face doesn't hurt anymore?!"

"Zhao! Yu!!"

Zhang Ying gritted her teeth and stared at Zhao Yu's smiling face, wishing to cut this guy into pieces.

brush!

As soon as Zhang Ying finished speaking, the Xiuchun Dao in Zhao Yu's hand was unsheathed.

"Did you forget so quickly what I said to Qianhu at the gate of Jinyiwei Yamen today?"

The blade was placed on Zhang Ying's shoulder, and Zhao Yu's tone gradually became colder.

Zhang Ying gritted his teeth, looked at the thirty or so sword-wielding warriors following Zhao Yu, knelt on one knee and said, "I wonder what you are doing, Lord Qianhu, if you are here late at night!"

"This is so ridiculous!"

Zhao Yu took back the Xiuchundao and said immediately: "I came here today for one purpose..."

Zhang Ying raised her head and looked at Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yuqing said lightly: "Collect debt!"

"Debt collection? What kind of debt?" Zhang Ying was stunned.

Zhao Yu did not speak, but stepped aside to let Lu Jianxing step forward.

"you?!"

Zhang Ying stood up slowly and stared at Lu Jianxing.

He couldn't afford to offend Zhao Yu, how could a small general dare to act wild in front of him?!

"Master Baihu, a few days ago..."

After all, Lu Jianxing had worked under Zhang Ying, and this status was somewhat irreversible for a while.

Besides, for five hundred taels of silver, a thousand households and dozens of people came to collect debts in the middle of the night. Only Zhao Yu could do this!

"Oh, brother, what are you doing to your mother-in-law? Let me tell you!"

Jin Xiaochuan, who was extremely excited, stepped forward, coughed and said: "Some time ago, my elder brother gave you five hundred taels..."

"stop!"

Zhao Yu immediately shouted stop, then stepped forward, glared at Jin Xiaochuan and scolded: "What do you mean you gave him five hundred taels?"

Jin Xiaochuan was a little confused, and then Zhao Yu said loudly: "It's a loan. Lu Jianxing lent Shangguan Zhang Baihu five hundred taels!!"

"Yes, yes, it's a loan!"

Jin Xiaochuan was very clever and immediately understood what Zhao Yu meant and changed his tone.

"Since the matter cannot be settled, will Zhang Baihu return my brother's five hundred taels?"

Zhao Yu came to Zhang Ying slowly and said cheerfully: "You are a big family with a big business, so you don't care about this little money, but my brothers are not so good. They count on this little money to support their families!"

"Master Qianhu is here... just for a mere five hundred taels?!"

Zhang Ying stared at Zhao Yu with murderous intent.

He wasn't stupid, so how could he believe that a dignified man from a thousand households would come to trouble him in such a big way for the hundreds of dollars that his subordinates paid filial piety to?

Zhao Yu was not doing this for the money Lu Jianxing gave him, but for himself!

In other words, Zhao Yu was most likely assigned by the Governor of Xichang to find trouble to warn his backer, Eunuch Zhao!

"Repaying debts is a matter of course! Stop grinding your teeth and farting, and give me the money as soon as possible!"

Zhao Yu waved his hand impatiently.

"Go, go to the accounting room and pay Master Qianhu five hundred taels!"

Zhang Ying stared at Zhao Yu coldly, and then gave instructions to the servant beside him.

In the past few days, there seems to be no peace in the court, and Eunuch Zhao has also issued a message not to cause any trouble at this time.
