Rebirth of the Noble Concubine

Chapter 355 365. Debt payment

This was what Feng Jinlin was most confused about, and he suddenly understood.

"The current director of water transportation is Liang Quanbin. Mingyue is not out of her mind, so how can she have contact with the Liang family again!"

When Feng Jinyao heard what he said, she thought of something.

Yes, Sister Banxia can predict that the Liang family and the Xu family will never have contact with each other, but how can we be sure that she will deliver the account books to her?

Sure enough, is it still the same as in the last life, do you have the intention to protect yourself?

Feng Jinyao didn't know, but what she was thinking about at the moment was that if she had a chance, she would still want to meet this Banxia sister.

Whether it is for the reminder of the past life or the trust in this life.

Jinling City has already started to deal with those corrupt officials, but the other two Zhejiang envoys did not realize the secret.

I am completely focused on collecting official grain this year.

Logically speaking, the weather at the end of May should have been sunny and sunny, and it has gradually become hotter.

But the weather this year has been unusually severe, and now I can still wear a cloak.

Although you don't have to wear clothes with fur collars when going out, you can't wear light gauze either.

Therefore, many silk and satin shops that have stocked up on yarn materials are in great distress at the moment.

The Zhu family was also involved in this business, so the shopkeeper was so worried that he lost weight every day.

The account books were getting uglier day by day, and most of the cash in hand was lost.

In the past, at least thousands of pieces of materials had been ordered at this time, but now the ones I started stocking up last year are still lying motionless in the warehouse.

However, the farmers who had delivered silk and dye according to the agreement did not receive the money that was due long ago, so they were angry and dissatisfied.

After the Chi family instigated this matter behind the scenes, the entrance to the Zhu family's silk and satin shop was filled with farmers who came to collect debts. They all held the tools in a menacing manner and blocked the shopkeeper and the clerks inside.

They threatened that if they couldn't get the money today, they would go in and grab the fabric.

How can it be done?

What was sent was just some raw materials, but what was to be taken away were all finished fabrics, and they were all fine treasures, to be sent to the Eastern Capital City.

What if they really robbed me?

The leader, Old Man Zheng, was the more talkative among them. He first cried out in nice words that the Zhu family owed money and that their family had no rice for cooking. The children and the elderly were all starving at home and could not get up. This stirred up the emotions of the onlookers.

high place.

"Everyone is here to comment. This Zhu family is going to default on the debt. It was written in black and white. It was supposed to be paid ten days ago. There has been no movement yet. Are you not going to pay? Or are you just bullying us?"

Idiot who can't read?"

When he said something, the people behind him would start cheering.

The silk shop was once again surrounded by water, and the shopkeeper wanted to send someone to find someone from the Zhu family to deal with the matter, but he couldn't get out.

As soon as you go out, you are greeted by rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves. Who can resist it?

They could only walk around anxiously in the shop, hoping that someone around them would see them and call the owner to come to rescue them.

However, the shopkeeper's absence further intensified the conflict.

Then Old Man Zheng opened his mouth and said.

"Since the Zhu family doesn't care whether we live or die, then we don't need to be polite. It's going to rain, my mother wants to marry a man, and she has no food in her belly and wants to eat people. Since they can't come up with money, there's no need to be polite.

, just grab it, as much as you can!"

As he spoke, he waved the hoe in his hand and dug into the door panel of the silk and satin shop.

They are all bankers who rely on their strength to make a living, so the door panel was smashed to pieces.

The shopkeeper inside was so frightened that he saw Old Man Zheng and others rushing in and starting to grab the fabrics, and he was so anxious that he was running around.

"No, everyone, don't listen to old man Zheng's nonsense. How can the Zhu family have no money? Please be patient, I will ask the owner to come and settle the bill for you, okay?"

"Bah, how many days have we been waiting? Every day the Zhu family says they have money to come back to settle the bill, but where are they? Where's the money? Seeing that the harvest in the fields is getting worse day by day, the whole family depends on this little money to live.

But you still refuse to give us, aren’t we going to die?”

The speaker was another silk farmer. He raised many silkworms at home and sent them to the Zhu family every year. But this year, it was the first time that he had not paid for them.

Originally, he thought it might take three or two days, but unexpectedly he heard the news.

Everyone said that the Zhu family was so wealthy that they would not even give out the money to survive for small farmers. Could something have happened to the Zhu family?

After all, the confrontation between the Zhu family and Director Liang could not be concealed at that time.

So they were worried that if the Zhu family really fell, their money would be lost, so they hurriedly came to collect debts.

As expected, the Zhu family had ulterior motives. They didn't even dare to see their faces and locked the door of the shop tightly, which led to the scene just now.

The shopkeeper cried and begged the boss to give him some time, otherwise he could just send someone to follow him to find the boss to ask for money.

Old man Pian Zheng took advantage of it. Today he wanted to disturb the peace of the silk and satin shop, so he stepped forward and started to take action.

"Just listen to his nonsense. Follow him to Zhu's house. I'm afraid you won't be able to get out once you get in. I'm going to use the cloth to pay off the debt anyway. If you want money, just ask for it."

They are not fools, so they naturally know that the value of this fabric is much more valuable than the silk and cotton they sent.

Naturally, I have to use this expensive thing to offset it. Even if I sell it at a low price, it will still be worth the harvest of the past few years.

As soon as these words came out, the crowd was furious.

If you don't care about talking nonsense with the shopkeeper, you can grab as much as you want, pull out the cheap fabrics, bundle up the expensive ones and leave.

They were all very strong people, and they all ran away with the cloth as heavy as a mountain.

The shopkeeper's left side was unable to resist, but his right side was knocked down.

After everyone dispersed, only a few tatters were left in the silk and satin shop, and even the abacus he usually used had been conveniently taken away.

Among them are farmers to whom they owe money, but there are also many who are here to take advantage of them.

"Quick, quick, report this matter to the master!"

The shopkeeper was helped up by the waiters and staggered outside.

Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the door of Zhu's house, he discovered that it was only one of the silk and satin shops that had been robbed, and shopkeepers from several shops came to ask for help.

On the day when the Zhu family's son got married, Commander Liang's artillery fire was obvious to all.

What's more, Zhu Hong was so angry that he wanted to drag everyone to be buried with him that day, which made those who had interacted with the Zhu family in the past feel troubled.

Then a rumor that had been prepared for a long time began to spread everywhere.

It was said that the Zhu family was going to collapse because they had offended the Director of Water Transport. For a while, the merchants who had relations with the Zhu family began to distance themselves from each other.

The shopkeepers gathered in front of the door and asked the Zhu family to make the decision for them. At this moment, Zhu Hong, the head of the Zhu family, fell ill.
