Just a quick calculation, you are a fugitive!

Wu Hongliang hurried home and came back in a hurry, holding a thick account book in his hand.

"Master, I don't have a bad relationship with anyone on weekdays. And if I borrow money, I won't ask for it. Just tell me if you don't have the money at the appointed time. They... won't plot against me, right?"

Su Chen smiled: "People's hearts are unpredictable."

The crew members all echoed in agreement.

"That's right, everyone in Jiangwei knows that you are rich, so they must be jealous."

"Perhaps Brother Hongliang will be resented if you don't give him cigarettes."

"Brother Hongliang, please stop being verbose and let Master take a look at the account book."

…

Wu Hongliang hurriedly handed the account book to Su Chen.

After opening it and glancing at it, Su Chen nodded subconsciously.

The front of the account book is revenue, and the back is expenditure. The expenditure is divided into several columns. Although the writing is a bit like a dog crawling, the date, project, and payee are all clear at a glance.

When he was looking at the account book, many crew members came over.

Seeing Su Chen quickly flipping the account book to October, he didn't dare to say anything.

But as I turned through the pages, someone pointed out.

"Brother Hongliang, why does Ah Qing keep asking you for money? I remember that you give him living expenses every month."

Liu Yucui asked in a low voice: "Who is Ah Qing?"

"Aqing is the nephew of Brother Hongliang. Brother Hongliang has an older brother. A few years ago, he went to sea with others and got drunk and fell into the sea, leaving orphans and widows. Brother Hongliang can't ignore it, right? Every month Give living expenses to my wife."

Wu Hongliang laughed dryly: "Ah Qing is still a child, and the money he asks for from me each time is not much, only ten or twenty yuan, probably just to buy cigarettes or something."

With a smile on his face, Wu Hongliang felt bitter in his heart.

Ah Qing is now 17 and refuses to go to school no matter how hard he tries. Last year, I found him a job as an apprentice through connections. He gave up the job after only two days of working. He hangs out with the second-rate people in the village all day long, and his sister-in-law doesn't care much about it. It's so sad!

But he said that it would be better for Ah Qing to come to him every few days to get pocket money than to owe money randomly, which would probably be a bottomless pit.

At this moment, Su Chen had already finished flipping through the ledger.

Someone immediately asked: "Master, how are you doing? Do you know who it is?"

"I think it's Allen who borrows money all the time, right? And every time he borrows fifty or hundreds of dollars, he never gets paid back."

"Yes, yes, I think it's Allen too."

Wu Hongliang frowned: "Impossible. Allen has been helping me look after the pond for more than ten years. He has always done his duty. This year he borrowed money because his wife was sick and had no other choice. Don't talk nonsense."

"Are you going to ask me to borrow money from now on and would you like others to be so suspicious of you?"

The crew members laughed dryly and waved their hands.

"Well, it's not Allen, there's no one here borrowing money all the time." Someone came over and scratched his head.

They saw Su Chen handing the account book back to Wu Hongliang.

"Brother Hongliang, please have a chat with your nephew when you have time."

"Oh, okay, I'm sure..."

Wu Hongliang paused as he spoke and looked at Su Chen in disbelief: "Master, what do you mean..."

"No, A Qing comes to me to get money. I give it directly, it's not a loan..."

Su Chen reminded: "You gave it directly, he said he borrowed it."

Wu Hongliang thought about it and his face turned pale instantly.

He took a few deep breaths and quickly smiled.

"Master, then, how can I solve my financial problem?"

Su Chen smiled and said, "It's simple. I'll draw you a fortune talisman from all directions. You can't spend money within seven days, which will naturally break the money-breaking spell. Of course, I will find an opportunity to get back the money you borrowed from your nephew. I will do it now." Can solve it.”

"Okay, then master, please help me draw the talisman."

This means that I don't want to force my nephew.

Sure enough, every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite.

Su Chen asked everyone to step aside and took out the cinnabar yellow paper.

Seeing that everyone was asking whether this talisman could make you rich, he explained with a smile: "The fortune talisman from all directions is to stimulate your own wealth and make you a small fortune in a short period of time, but the overall money you make remains the same."

“To be more precise, I’m borrowing money from my future self.”

"...Huh? Is that so?"

"I thought that wearing this talisman would bring me a windfall, and I would be able to pick up money while walking on the road."

Su Chen laughed: "If you are so good, why should I set up a fortune-telling stall? Just draw a picture on yourself every day."

Everyone suddenly said: "That's right."

After the talisman was completed, Wu Hongliang turned around and took out a hundred and handed it to him: "Master, this is the talisman money!"

"Not so much, 20."

"Oh oh oh, okay."

Wu Hongliang took another two 10-yuan bills and handed them to him. Su Chen accepted them and reminded him again: "Remember, you can't spend money within seven days."

"Master, can my wife spend money?"

"Can."

"Okay, I'll be with my wife these seven days. She spends money, but I don't touch the money."

Finally, Wu Hongliang invited them to have a late-night snack before returning to the city, but Su Chen refused.

"I have to attend a wedding today, so I have to go back and clean up quickly."

It took nearly twenty hours of back and forth at sea.

It was bright when we arrived, but now it's dark, and the day passed quietly.

Wu Hongliang asked Santengzi to take them back to the city, and asked Ah Hai, the oldest crew member, to send Chunzi to the seafood collector in the city, and then he hurried home with the account book.

He didn't go to look for his nephew Aqing, but drank two bottles of wine at home, which made his wife Sun Meihua mutter and mutter, and then he told the matter.

Sun Meihua immediately squinted her eyes.

"What did I say? Aqing is an ungrateful person, right? You give them 100 yuan a month as living expenses, and you work hard to find a master to teach him, but what's the result? He wants you to lose money, what kind of person is this?"

"If you ask me, just listen to the master, you go and ask Aqing to return the money, and our two families will be completely cut off!"

Wu Hongliang rubbed his face: "But, he is my nephew after all, and it's hard to explain to my mother."

"Explain, you have been good to their family, you have given them at least more than 10,000 yuan in the past seven or eight years, right? Have I said anything? When did you buy shoes and clothes for our son and daughter, but didn't you bring some for Aqing? What about him? Is this how he repays us?"

Wu Hongliang didn't say anything.

After a long while, he sighed: "I'll go talk to my sister-in-law and mom later. I won't give her money for living expenses anymore."

Sun Meihua's eyes lit up: "Really?"

After hesitating for a while, she whispered: "Aqing is not yet 18, so stop giving her money when she is 18. You can give her more living expenses later. If she wants to help her, she can pay for it herself."

Wu Hongliang was relieved and distressed when he heard this.

"Meihua, in the end, you are the only one who cares about me."

"Why are you saying such cheesy things so early in the morning?" Sun Meihua saw him trying to hold her hand and slapped his claws away. "I know you can't afford to lose face. I'll go with you to discuss the living expenses later."

"Okay."

"But although Ah Qing is idle all day, I don't think he has the brains to plot against you. How about I go and ask about this?"

"All up to you."

...

The three-wheeled motorcycle used a diesel engine, which hummed all the way. In addition, the road from Jiangwei to the city was not smooth, and Su Chen felt like he was going to be thrown out several times.

He had to protect Ah Peng while holding Liu Aiguo. When the three-wheeled motorcycle drove into the city and got off, he felt that his whole body was about to fall apart.

He was like this, not to mention Liu Ying and the others.

But the two seemed to be used to it. At the station, they thanked Su Chen profusely before helping Liu Aiguo in.

Su Chen knew their family's situation and did not persuade them to treat Liu Aiguo as soon as possible in the city's hospital. He sighed and shook his head, then hailed a taxi.

As soon as he opened the door, he heard a familiar voice: "Hey, Master Su?"
