It is said that Deshengchang was established by relying on the Cao family's Shanxi Piaohao.
The Cao family is Old Lady Fang’s maiden family.
In the beginning, Deshengchang Bank had a lot of business dealings with the Cao family, and many people from the Cao family worked in Deshengchang Bank.
Later, the Cao family gradually declined, while the Fang family became more and more prosperous. Later, Old Master Fang, the eldest master, passed away suddenly. Mrs. Fang was pregnant and didn't even know whether the child was a boy or a girl. The people of the Cao family then thought about making the two families one. The Cao family felt that this was also a help to Mrs. Fang, who married out.
After all, the Fang family from Shandong also came to make trouble at that time.
As a result, Mrs. Fang flatly refused. Not only that, she also dismissed all the people from the Cao family of Deshengchang and demanded repayment of the debts, including her brothers.
The brothers were forced to sell their property. Mrs. Fang's mother was still alive at that time. She came to her daughter in her seventies and pleaded with her daughter, threatening to beat her to death if she did not obey.
Old Mrs. Fang looked at her mother who was blocking the door and making a fuss, so she took the wooden stick from the security guard and hit her without hesitation.
"Anyone who dares to steal my money is either a relative or an enemy," she shouted.
The beating of old lady Cao with a stick made her head bleed and terrified all the people in Shanxi. What else could they talk about with such a beast who only cared about money and not his relatives? Both the Cao family and the Fang family left in disgrace. From then on, they severed all ties with each other and treated each other as strangers when they met on the road.
The Fang sisters were still young at that time. More than ten years later, although they were brought up strictly in business, they enjoyed the care of their parents in their daily lives. The so-called heartless and ungrateful old lady of the Fang family seemed like someone else to them.
What is this for?
Fang Yunxiu's face turned pale, and Mrs. Fang was also uneasy. Only Fang Yuxiu remained calm.
"Young ladies, the old lady wants to know if you have had enough fun." The leading maid said coldly, "If you have, hand over the seal."
Fang Yunxiu looked at Fang Yuxiu with trepidation as always.
"What if you haven't had enough fun?" Fang Yuxiu asked, "Are you going to beat us to death?"
"Stop talking nonsense. How can you be so ignorant?" Mrs. Fang scolded. On one side was her mother-in-law and on the other was her daughter. She really didn't know what to do.
The maid had no expression on her face.
"Miss Second is joking," she said, waving her hand at the person behind her.
The maid behind her immediately rushed over with a rope in her hand. Madam Fang opened her hand to stop them but she didn't know how.
Fang Yunxiu hurriedly stood in front of Fang Yuxiu. Although her face was pale, her eyes were firm and she would not retreat or give in.
"I'll give it to you, don't use force." Fang Yuxiu said neatly, raising her hand.
Everyone in the room was stunned, and the maids almost stopped in their tracks.
Is this it?
Isn’t this too... spineless?
"Even if you hand it over, the two young ladies have caused trouble. The old lady has ordered you to be under house arrest." The maid said with a cold face, motioning for the other maids to come forward.
Fang Yuxiu said "Oh".
"That won't work," she said. "Even if I take out the seal, the managers won't open the vault unless I go there in person. That's what I said at the beginning."
The maid's brows twitched.
"Yuxiu, don't go too far. I've let you take care of things for a few days, and you don't know your place. Do you really think that Deshengchang belongs to you? Will it close down without you?" Madam Fang raised her eyebrows and shouted.
Fang Yuxiu shrugged calmly.
"Of course not," she said, "but at least I've been in charge for a few days, so I guess it's okay to make some noise."
This dead girl, Mrs. Fang glared at her. It was the second time that she disliked such a smart and cold person. The first time was when she was facing Miss Jun.
…
"Let her go." Old Mrs. Fang shouted with a sullen look.
"Who knows whether what she said is true or not, what kind of trouble will she cause in the bank... I don't know how they did it. The bank has recruited a lot of people, and they actually obeyed their words..." Mrs. Fang said hesitantly, with a bit of self-blame, "I don't know why this child is like this."
"It's just right to see who will follow suit and cause trouble. Arrest them all. I don't believe it. I have been in charge of Deshengchang for decades, but I am not as good as a little girl." Old Lady Fang raised her eyebrows and shouted, "First, close the bank and calm down the discussions outside. If there is any trouble next time, do it behind closed doors at home."
The old lady looked very anxious.
Are you really so panicked because of these two girls?
It is inevitable that you will be hurt by the people who are close to you and who are off guard, which is what makes people most angry, sad and panic.
I was also so angry that I was almost out of breath.
Mrs. Fang replied yes.
When the carriage drove out of the Fang family's gate, the people on the street were startled.
"Someone is coming out!"
"Come and see who it is!"
The people sitting and standing on the street started talking, and many of them came over.
The people in the Fang family were also shocked.
When did so many people start squatting outside the door?
“We are all waiting to see the excitement.”
“These people are so idle.”
Yuan said to Mrs. Fang in a low voice.
Mrs. Fang let out a sigh of anger.
"What kind of thing is this?" She said, pressing her forehead. "How could such a good child become like this?"
"Madam, when children grow up, they tend to have their own ideas." Yuan Shi carefully comforted her, "Especially a smart child like the Second Miss."
"How can I be happy when you say that?" Mrs. Fang said with a glare.
Yuan was embarrassed.
"Tell the people in the car to keep a close eye on them." Mrs. Fang said unhappily, and then she let out a long sigh, "I can't control them anymore."
"Don't worry, madam. Each of them has four maids guarding them. They are all very skilled." Yuan said, "The car will go directly to the ticket office."
Mrs. Fang put her hand on her forehead and waved it.
"Why is Chengyu walking so slowly?" She suddenly remembered something and asked, "Logically, we should be almost there by now, right?"
Yuan coughed lightly.
"I think the young master walked slowly on purpose," she said. "How could he be kept in the dark about what happened in this family? He probably doesn't know how to deal with this. It's embarrassing when he comes back."
Yes, Chengyu has always been good friends with the sisters, and now that things have turned out like this, he is indeed embarrassed.
Mrs. Fang reached out and pressed her forehead again.
"What is this? It's a mixture of internal and external troubles," she said.
There were many guards, and three carriages were escorted to the bank. The curtains of the carriages were tightly closed and did not move. Although the people watching outside were curious, they could not see who was sitting inside, so they could only talk and point.
The bank also got the news, and Manager Gao had already signaled to several employees.
"Open the door," he said.
Several employees hesitated for a moment.
"Boss, are you really doing this?" One of them couldn't help but ask again.
If an outsider heard this, they would find it very funny. It's just opening a door, but it sounds like something big is going to happen.
There was no trace of amusement on the face of Shopkeeper Gao, and he nodded solemnly.
"Fuck," he said.
The employees responded in unison and walked out.
The side door of the bank creaked open. This door was not as grand as the bank. It was a bit narrow and had a high threshold.
This threshold is still not removable, just like the tall counters in the bank, all for safety reasons.
So when the carriage arrived at the door, the horses were untied and several men carried the carriage in. This was not a difficult task and they often did this.
But this time, maybe it was because there were too many people in the car, the burly guys in the front who were lifting the car swayed when they stepped over the threshold, and they cried out, and their hands slipped.
The person behind was caught off guard. He sank and fell down with a scream.
The guys in front seemed to be rushing to help, and several hands were holding on to the carriage tightly.
But this did not prevent the carriage from falling to the ground. With a creaking sound, the solid carriage fell to the ground and broke into pieces on all sides.
With screams, people in the carriage rolled out.
There were four sturdy maids and a petite girl.
After all, she was young and petite, so she quickly rolled out to the street.
The onlookers immediately rushed over.
"It's the Second Miss!"
"It's Miss Fang II!"
Shouts rose and spread among the crowd.
The protagonist of the fight for the family property has appeared, which makes the people who have been waiting for a long time extremely excited.
"Not good." Mrs. Fang shouted from the car behind and quickly lifted the curtain.
But it was still a step too late. Fang Yuxiu had already stood up from the ground and was stumbling towards the crowd.
“Uncles, aunts, uncles, aunts, please save me,” she shouted at the same time, “My grandmother is going to beat me to death.”
Stimulate!
The people present were shocked.
