The Chinese said to Mr. and Mrs. Jiang boning.
"It's still early. You two can go around the house again. I'll talk to boss Gong alone."
The Chinese know something about the Jiang family, so Jiang boning is not afraid of their tricks. He sneered: "OK, talk slowly. Let's go inside and see you later."
He took the orchids and walked into the yard.
Gong Xiang and the Chinese stayed at the door.
The Chinese watched their husband and wife walk away until they couldn't see any more. Then they let go of Gong Xiang.
Gong Xiang was indignant: "Lao Luo, you know what's going on in our family now. I can't sell my house because I'm in a hurry to spend money. This house should be kept at ordinary times. Even if it's sold for 500 Liang, it won't be a problem. But shopkeeper Jiang is too much. Three hundred taels are too expensive. He deliberately pressed the price again and again. He even said he wanted one hundred taels to buy my house. Isn't he bullying? "
At last, he was clenching his fists and his eyes were red. It was obvious that he was really angry.
The Chinese called Lao Luo scratched his head and was puzzled: "I have dealt with shopkeeper Jiang before. Although he is a little smooth and shrewd, he is OK on the whole. How can he become so arrogant today?"
Gong Xiang gritted his teeth and said, "I don't care what kind of person he used to be. Anyway, my house won't be sold to him!"
Lao Luo sighed deeply: "I'm afraid you can't sell this house."
"What do you mean?"
"One of my relatives is from Yunshan village. Now it has been spread all over the village. The Jiang family has a general named Jiang Shuan, who is Jiang boning's brother."
Gong Xiang's face changed greatly. He looked like he couldn't believe it. He staggered back two steps: "how is it possible? How could the Jiang family really have a general? "
Lao Luo was helpless: "everyone said that the Jiang family was such a powerful figure because of the smoke from their ancestral graves."
"Is it true that what shopkeeper Jiang said just now?"
"I don't say it's all true, but at least half of it is true. His brother became a general. Even if the county magistrate met him, he had to be polite. We ordinary people can't afford to offend."
Gong Xiang couldn't stand any longer. He sat down on the ground, turned pale and said in despair, "what about my house? Do you really want to sell one hundred Liang to shopkeeper Jiang? But my family still owes me more than 400 liang of silver. This house is my last property. If I sell only 100 Liang, what money will I take to pay off my debt? "
Lao Luo can't bear it. He still feels guilty.
It was he who brought Jiang boning to see the house. If not, Jiang boning would not like the house. But at that time, the Jiang family was just an ordinary farmer's family. Who had expected that a general would suddenly appear in the Jiang family in just half a month?!
Lao Luo reached out to help Gong Xiang up. Seeing that he was still weak in legs and feet and could not stand steadily, he helped him sit down on the steps at the gate of the Taoist temple.
"Boss Gong, you have no other choice now. Shopkeeper Jiang has made up his mind to buy your house. If you don't sell it, you will offend the Jiang family. Looking back, the general of the Jiang family will find another excuse to put you in prison. Even if you don't die, you have to take off your skin. It's more important to keep your life than money! "
Hearing this, Gong Xiang was filled with despair. A man in his forties burst into tears on the spot.
Lao Luo comforted a few words, but it was useless.
When he heard the footsteps approaching, he knew that it was Mr. and Mrs. Jiang boning who had come back. Gong Xiang quickly stopped his tears, wiped his face with his sleeve and wiped all the tears off his face. However, his eyes were still red. People with clear eyes knew that he had just cried.
Seeing this, Jiang boning smiled more and more proudly.
"Boss Gong, how are you thinking? Do you sell this house or not? "
Gong Xiang's shoulder pressed down, and his voice was very weak: "sell."
Jiang boning laughed: "that's right! It's good to buy your yard for one hundred Liang. You know, not everyone can have a relationship with the general. You should cherish this blessing! "
Ye Lanhua's face was also beaming. She smiled and said, "I knew this business would be successful today. When we went out, we brought out all the silver tickets and adjusted them for one hundred Liang. Boss Gong, if there's no problem, let's go to the county government to handle the transfer procedures."
At the urging of Mr. and Mrs. Jiang boning, Gong Xiang had to go home to get the house deed and land deed.
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang boning and Lao Luo stayed here waiting for him.
Gong Xiang went home alone. In the past, his family lived in this second house, but because they owed a lot of debt, all the things worth a little money at home were sold. The house was empty. In addition, he wanted to sell the house. In order to facilitate others to see the house, his family simply moved out.
Now they live in relatives' homes. Gong Xiang originally planned to borrow some money from relatives and do some small business after paying off his debts, so as to live a little again.
However, the ideal is beautiful and the reality is cruel.
His house was sold as expected, but he couldn't sell enough to pay off the debt. Jiang boning was only willing to pay one hundred Liang, but what's the use of one hundred liang?!
Gong Xiang's plan was completely disrupted, and the future suddenly fell into darkness and saw no hope.
He came home with heavy steps, only to find that there were uninvited guests.
The visitor was a gentle man with a straight blue coat and a beard under his chin. He arched his hand at Gong Xiang and said with a gentle smile, "boss Gong."
Gong Xiang knew this person and knew that this person was the money lender of Huitong ticket number. His name was Cao Geng.
The so-called money lenders are those who specifically release interest money. In modern society, they are loan specialists.
Before that, Cao Geng came to Gong Xiang and said he could lend him money, but Gong Xiang refused. Unexpectedly, he came again today.
Gong Xiang was in a bad mood at this time, and the expression on his face was also very ugly: "Why are you here again?"
Cao Geng didn't take his attitude to heart and said with a smile.
"I know boss Gong has some difficulties recently. Our Huitong ticket number is happy to help. As long as you nod your head, we can give you a silver ticket immediately, and your debt can be written off."
Gong Xiang is a businessman who has been in business for many years. He has seen a lot of the world. He has also seen many people who, after borrowing Lizi money, are forced to sell their children and women because they can't afford huge interest. Some even die in order to get rid of it.
He has reminded himself countless times that Lizi money is a bottomless abyss. If he takes one step, he will fall to pieces.
But now, he had no way out except the abyss in front of him.
Are you standing there waiting to die? Or break to pieces?
