Chapter 137 Buying an Industry
Ma whispered, "Those people from the Cheng family are finished!"
Hao and Bai Shuang both looked at her curiously.
Ma looked so happy that she didn't get to the point for a long time.
Bai Shuang was anxious and asked quickly, "What's going on? Tell us quickly!"
Ma smiled and said, "Alas, it's that impatient guy!"
Bai Shuang glared at her, and she spoke in a low voice.
"My husband is a good-natured man, but he is only good to his family and friends!"
"He's very cruel to those who dare to plot against him!"
"Although he didn't say it openly, what did he do to the people from the master's side!"
"But behind the scenes, he did a lot of things!"
"And it hits the point directly!"
Originally, Mr. Cheng thought, I will not offend others unless they offend me. Although those people from the host's family were a bit annoying, they didn't do anything too outrageous after all.
So he turned a blind eye and didn't care about it.
Otherwise, he would not have gone back to help when he heard that his stepmother was sick.
But he didn't expect that his stepmother's illness was fake, but the intention to take his life was real. How could he possibly endure it?
Cheng Zhong has been in the business world for many years and knows countless people in both the black and white worlds.
He has many close friends, and when he is in trouble, everyone will help him.
So, a trap was set.
In fact, it couldn't be said that he set up the trap, because the eldest son of the master's family loved gambling.
Before, Cheng Zhong would help clean up the mess many times and also give some advice.
Now, he will definitely not care anymore.
Moreover, he took advantage of this incident and blocked the news.
In this way, in less than a month, the son lost all his family property, land, and the few shops he owned.
By the time the host family found out the news, it was too late.
The people from the gambling house had already dragged the son to the owner's house to ask for money.
The owner naturally doesn't want to sell his property to pay off the debt. But the people in the gambling house are all extremely vicious.
If the money wasn’t paid back, they would keep causing trouble, making the owner of the house the laughing stock of the street.
The owner was at a loss, so he came to Chen Zhong for help.
It just so happened that Cheng Zhong said that he had been feeling unwell recently. A doctor was also called in, and the doctor diagnosed that he was poisoned.
The host's family was shocked, thinking that the medicine they gave was too strong. Cheng Zhong actually discovered it.
Then I heard from Ma that she had hired a miracle doctor at a large price, who said he could find out how Cheng Zhong was poisoned.
This really scared the people in the host's house.
If it is discovered that they were the ones who poisoned the place, they will not only destroy the shops but also the fields.
They must all be arrested and sent to prison. Murder is a life-threatening crime.
All the people from the host family said goodbye one after another.
Later I never dared to come again.
But the gambling house was not one that could wait. There were disturbances every few days, the owner was splashed with feces and scolded every day.
The neighbors couldn't stand it anymore and started to drive them away.
Later, the county government and the constable were alarmed.
The head of the family was left with no choice but to sell all their properties, land, and shops, leaving only a small farm outside the city.
Then the whole family moved to that small village.
In the past, it was not bad to live in a big house with dozens of masters and one or two hundred servants.
Now he lives in this small farm and has sold all his slaves and servants. Even with dozens of people living here, it's still crowded.
Some people couldn't stand it anymore and thought about looking for Cheng Zhong again.
It's better to live in Cheng Zhong's big house and live under someone else's roof than to be cramped here.
In this way, people from the host family would come to Cheng Zhong's house from time to time to inquire about the news and make a fuss at the door.
Cheng Zhong never tires of it.
He also wanted to solve the problem once and for all and directly wipe out all the people in the master's family. However, he didn't dare to imagine the consequences of killing, and he didn't want to be stained with blood.
Finally, he discussed it with Yoo Chang-young while they were drinking together.
Cheng Zhong and his family plan to move to Kyoto.
All the shops and houses here were sold to Liu Changying.
Mr. Cheng didn't know why, but he always felt that Liu Changying and his family did not look like ordinary people.
He felt that they had an air of nobility about them. It's innate.
Especially that little girl, Liu Shiqi. It is even more extraordinary.
He also paid homage to Our Lady of Qingshan and saw her true appearance.
Therefore, he felt that Liu Shiqi was the reincarnation of the Holy Mother Qingshan.
If his family had not reminded him, he would have been terminally ill and lying in bed waiting to die.
Therefore, he felt that the Liu family would definitely be able to take over his shops and houses.
Moreover, in order to thank them, Cheng Zhong gave them a 50% discount.
Liu Changying frowned, somewhat moved, but he had no money.
But he knew who had it in the family. So he went to discuss it with Liu Shiqi.
It was mainly indirect. If Shi Qi didn't agree, he certainly wouldn't force it.
After listening to him, Liu Shiqi agreed without even thinking about it.
In fact, when she went to the Pan family to kill them that day, she knew that her father had been following her secretly.
I'm afraid she'll be in danger.
Otherwise, why would the Pan Mansion be fine, but have so many fires?
It must have been his father who helped put it there.
It's just that they just don't say it out loud.
Since her father wants to open a shop, she wants to experience being a boss.
And asking for her opinion now means that her father knows what she has.
Of course Liu Shiqi fully supports it.
At that time, a lot of silver was taken from the Pan Mansion, including 200,000 taels of official silver and Pan Mansion’s own private silver.
Liu Shiqi would definitely not touch the government silver, otherwise he would be asking for trouble.
So she used some of her private money, a total of 160,000 taels of silver, which, after a 50% discount, was 80,000 taels of silver.
There is no better deal than this.
Liu Shiqi directly loaded a carriage and sent it to Cheng Zhong and others.
Cheng Zhong and his wife were both stunned.
The two families completed the formalities quickly, but the strange thing was. The owner of the shop and the house is Liu Shiqi.
This was voted on by their entire family.
Liu Shiqi was also helpless. He didn't expect that he would become a big boss at the age of twelve!
After Cheng Zhong exchanged the silver for banknotes, the couple took their children and went to Kyoto.
Before leaving, I was still reluctant to leave.
After that, Liu Changying went to various shops to work happily every day.
I guess he's about this big. You have never opened your own shop!
Anyway, the whole family is very happy.
When the people from the Cheng family came to the mansion to make trouble again, Liu Changying simply ordered them to be driven out.
They went to the shop to make trouble again. He was also kicked out harshly.
Only then did I realize that they had changed their owners.
After realizing that there was no other way, the group of people from the Cheng family gradually stopped coming.
Later I heard that the original eldest daughter of the master's family was going to become the wife of the county magistrate's son.
As a result, she hastily married a villager for a few taels of silver.
Not to mention the son who squandered the family fortune. Whenever the whole family saw him, they would either beat or scold him.
Anyway, the family lived in chaos and became increasingly poor.
Cheng Zhong's stepmother, who is sixty years old, still has to feed chickens and pull weeds...
Liu Shiqi told this incident to Zhuang Yan as if it were a joke.
Zhuang Yan was thinking in his heart.
If Cheng Zhong is not dead, then Ma still has motivation. Become the richest man in the world?
Can you still provide him with financial support?
The two were talking in the room when suddenly a stone was thrown in through the window.
Zhuang Yan went over to pick it up and found a note tied to it...
