"2,000 yuan is my bottom line. My wife was seriously injured and hasn't woken up yet. If you don't believe me, you can go and see her. The doctor said that if she doesn't wake up, she will die.
This is a life. If you don't want to pay, I wonder if my wife's son will smash your house to pieces after knowing it." Chen Shaowen said.
When Old Lady Liu heard about the matchmaker Sun's son, she shuddered with fear. That boy was a reckless person. If she let him come, the 2,000 yuan might turn into 3,000 yuan.
"Wait a minute, two thousand yuan is not a small amount of money. You have to wait for me to get the money together." Old Mrs. Liu said with a dark face.
Matchmaker Sun is in such poor health, yet she still finds such a young partner. She really deserves it.
Chen Shaowen sneered: "I only give you three days. If you don't collect the money in three days, then go to the Public Security Bureau."
After he said that, he turned around, called his brothers and left.
Old Lady Liu watched Chen Shaowen leave and breathed a sigh of relief. Soon he couldn't help cursing: "I think that old guy is deliberately blackmailing us."
"Mom, what should we do? That's 2,000 yuan." Liu Lao Da looked at his mother and asked anxiously.
2,000 yuan is not a small amount of money. Their family doesn’t even have 1,000 yuan, let alone 2,000 yuan.
How to raise so much money in a short time?
"Boss, how much money do you and your wife have? Take it out and borrow it first.
You just heard it. If we don't give him the money, he will report it to the police and have our whole family arrested.
Jiadan, you have been working for these years, and the money you have is all yours. Just give us whatever you have, and let's pool our money together and see if we can make up the amount." Old Lady Liu said.
She and her husband have saved several hundred yuan over the years, and the children have been working for many years, so they must have some money saved as well. If you add it all up, it would be at least 1,000 yuan.
When Liu Lao Da heard that he had to pay for it himself, his face suddenly became a little ugly: "Mom, I only have more than 100 yuan.
My wife and I don’t earn much, but our daily food and drink expenses and social interactions cost a lot of money. My wife and I also have two children to raise, which also requires money.”
Old Mrs. Liu didn't expect her son to be so unhappy, and her face immediately drooped.
When Liu Jiadan heard that her eldest brother only had 100 yuan, she immediately followed suit and said, "Mom, my eldest brother and my eldest sister-in-law only have 100 yuan.
I've been working the night shift for many years longer than them, how much money can I have? I only have a little over 100."
Old Lady Liu looked at the children with a gloomy face and said angrily, "Okay, I think you guys are determined to go to jail, right? It's okay if you don't have money. I'm not the only one who beat this guy. Let's go to jail together."
"Mom, what you said is wrong. You were the first to hit me. And according to what you said, shouldn't we have helped you and just watched you get beaten?
If you say that, my wife and I will not care about you anymore." Boss Liu said angrily.
Old Mrs. Liu almost fainted from anger. She glared at her son angrily, "You unfilial son, is it easy for me to raise you all this age? Now for a little money, you actually say such things to me."
Boss Liu looked at his mother and said, "Why don't we go find the leaders above us? Didn't they say that the house needs to be developed?
Otherwise, give us a house and two thousand dollars."
"Mom, I think this method is feasible." Liu Jiadan nodded and said.
Old Mrs. Liu had no other choice now. If she had known that she would have to pay so much money to Matchmaker Sun, she would not have done it no matter what.
She nodded and had no choice but to run to find her superiors.
The new director has just arrived and is not familiar with the area, and he cannot find any cooperative merchants to invest in this development.
Xu Shengshun went directly to find Xu Ying, and now the leader is always following up on the completion of the task here.
The funds have been found, but some people living in these compounds are unwilling to move.
"Grandma Liu." Xu Shengshun ran over without stopping as soon as he received Xu Ying's call. By now, the work of everyone in the compound had basically been completed.
There were only two or three families left in this compound, and the least rewarded among them was Old Lady Liu.
Old Lady Liu was also very excited when she saw Xu Shengshun. She asked him to go to Xu Ying to borrow money, but she refused to go. She was sure that the girl had bad intentions and must want to force her to accompany her in the name of borrowing money.
That girl has a relationship with Director Gu's family, so she must be doing something for Director Gu.
But he just couldn't get what he wanted, so the girl gave the opportunity to make a contribution to this boy.
"Cadre Xu, you are here to do ideological work again. I have something to say to you today. Just giving us a house is definitely not enough. We must be compensated.
I don't want too much, 2,000 yuan, if you think it's okay, then I agree to move out."
When Xu Shengshun heard this, he immediately looked embarrassed: "Grandma, we are moving to a new building.
Moreover, since there are more people in your family, the house you are given will have more rooms, at least three bedrooms, which is much better than the way you live together now.
2,000 yuan is too much. If it were 1,500 yuan, I could ask my boss for more. "
When Old Lady Liu heard this, her eyes rolled around.
1,500 yuan will be fine. She still has money on hand. When the time comes, her son will give 100 yuan and her daughter will give 100 yuan, and then the money will be total.
But Mrs. Liu wanted more: "1,800 yuan."
Xu Shengshun shook his head directly: "At most 1,500, the rest is really not possible."
Finally, Old Lady Liu had no choice but to agree.
Xu Shengshun took out the contract and asked Old Lady Liu to sign it: "This 1,500 yuan must be kept confidential. If you tell anyone, we will get the money back." He looked at Old Lady Liu and threatened.
When Old Lady Liu heard this, she was immediately shocked and quickly shook her head to assure him, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
It was because Old Lady Liu was only thinking about the money and didn't read the contract carefully. This was not a confidentiality contract at all, but just a consent form for this development.
The higher-ups had originally planned to compensate these people based on the area of their rooms. After all, this place is in the city center, and after they move out, they might be farther away.
In order to avoid losses for everyone, the higher-ups wanted to provide other subsidies besides accommodation.
After the contract was signed, Xu Shengshun directly gave Mrs. Liu 1,500 yuan.
Old Mrs. Liu took the money and immediately asked her son and daughter for one hundred each. She took three hundred for herself, put the money together, and immediately went to find Chen Shaowen.
Chen Shaowen had received the news a long time ago and was blocking the door of the box. When he saw Old Lady Liu coming, he was immediately overjoyed.
