Chapter 276: Making Money Is Easy (Update 1)
These gamblers are all scoundrels who will do anything to collect their debts.
In the past, they were afraid of Ye Heng and never came to ask for it, but now Ye Heng was locked up and no one knew whether he could get out. What was more important was that Ye Mingze was dead!
How could they care about anything else now? They made a lot of noise along the way, just to collect the debt!
If you don’t get some interest back now, it will be difficult to get the money back in the future!
"If Miss Ye doesn't pay back the money today, we won't leave!"
Ye Shixian's mind was completely confused.
It doesn’t matter whether the IOU is real or fake. These people are now clearly looking for trouble with them!
After all, Ye Shixian was a young lady who had been spoiled for more than ten years. Although she had seen many shady tricks in the inner court, she had never dealt with such ruffians and vagrants.
They are full of hostility and look like they are not afraid of death!
How can this be done?!
Ye Shixian bit her lip and tightly grasped the handkerchief, each word was difficult to speak: "Mingze is already dead, there is no evidence to prove this IOU, my Ye family will never recognize it!"
When the leading man heard this, he laughed instead of getting angry.
"Miss Ye, what you said is so interesting. This IOU was written by Ye Mingze himself. There is no reason why the debt can be paid off just because he dies! Of course, we are not unreasonable. If Miss Ye really can't pay the debt, just hand over Ye Mingze's body to us!"
Ye Shixian couldn't believe what she heard. How dare these people make such a request? They were really crazy!
"How dare you!" Ye Shixian said sharply, "My father is not dead yet! How can the Ye family allow you to bully us?"
If she really handed Mingze over, she didn't know how these people would humiliate her!
If this is the case, will the Ye family still have a good reputation? How will she survive in the capital in the future?
When she thought of the terrible consequences, Ye Shixian couldn't help but tremble.
The leading man sneered, "Three days! I'll give you three days. As long as you return the money in full in three days, we will forgive you for what happened. We can also do you a favor and send Second Young Master Ye to Baoer Pass. What else are you dissatisfied with?"
Judging from his tone, it seemed like he had helped Ye Shixian a lot.
Ye Shixian's heart was beating violently, and she couldn't suppress the deep fear in her heart amidst her anger.
"How dare you!"
——Baoerguan!
Dozens of miles away from the outskirts of Beijing, there is a rugged hill, originally called Lingshui Pass. Due to the corruption of the previous dynasty, heavy taxes and levies, and constant natural disasters, countless people were displaced. When they fled the capital, they had no choice but to throw their frozen and starved babies under the hill.
Baoer Pass, Baoer Pass, Baoer has a hard time passing Lingshui Pass.
In just a few months, a mountain of bones piled up there, and it eventually became a place where corpses were abandoned, a true mass grave.
When Ye Shixian thought of this, she felt a chill rising from the bottom of her heart. Seeing that the other party was not joking at all, she became even more panicked.
The man smiled coldly.
"Whether we dare or not, Miss Ye will know in three days."
Ye Shixian was speechless and trembling all over.
Thirteen thousand taels! Where could she get so much money at this time?
…
"Silver money is the easiest thing to earn."
Ye Mansion, front hall.
Ye Chutang sat at the head of the table, with three guests sitting on each side.
They were the same people who submitted their invitations the day before yesterday.
Ye Chutang smiled slightly, his eyes were gentle, and his voice was clear:
"Your trust is far more valuable than those golden and silver things."
