The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

Chapter 11 Old Yan's Economic Accounts

As soon as the donkey cart stopped, the gatekeeper at the gate of the gambling stall caught sight of Yan Lao Er.

Before he could regain his composure, seven or eight people rushed out of it.

They surrounded the donkey cart.

"Hey! Isn't this Yan Er? They've all gotten into the donkey cart, are you here to pay back the money?" After speaking, he leaned close to the donkey to stroke it, the donkey shook its ears, bared its teeth, and the leader shyly withdrew his hand .

Afraid of being chewed, forget it.

It's over!

Yan Lao Er's scalp exploded, he turned around in slow motion in horror, and looked at his elder brother who could already sit up on his own - Yan Huaiwen.

"What's the money?" Yan Huaiwen asked.

Yan's second son wanted to cry but had no tears, he was exposed too early, and he wasn't mentally prepared at all!

They also hope that with the help of the platform tonight, they can settle their gambling debts.

"Big... big brother... I didn't... I wasn't..." Second Yan was sweating, his face flushed red.

Whoooo! There's no denying it!

He said it wasn't him, he said he didn't, who would believe it? who!

Injustice!

Although it's not yet June, God, let's get some snow! ! !

"Oh, look at my eyes, isn't this Mr. Xiucai? Look, you've been negligent. If you'd like to show your face, come in for a cup of tea?" The man in the lead looked burly and powerful, and spoke slickly. .

"No, tell me what the money is about."

"Your second brother played in our gambling stall before. He was unlucky, not much, and owed a full twenty taels of silver."

"Is there such a thing?"

"Look, we don't have the guts to lie to you. Here is the IOU written by your second brother."

What else could Yan Laoer say, the fellow took out the IOU with his signature again, and handed it to his brother in a pretentious manner.

His brother took it over, and his brother read it carefully from top to bottom. His brother glanced at him with a blank expression on his face, and turned his head away...

Old Yan must be sad and disappointed.

He is so good to his brother.

It all came together to make matters worse.

Yan Laoer wiped his face fiercely, broke the jar and said:

"Brother, I was wrong, I shouldn't be gambling!

The money is owed by me, and I will find a way to pay it back.

Didn't you allow me three days? It's not enough yet. According to the date we agreed, if you come to me, I, Yan Laoer, will definitely pay you back. "

The man sneered, ignored him, and only looked at Yan Xiucai sitting on the donkey cart.

Yan Huaiwen couldn't remember what his face was when he faced the sudden gambling debt, ahem, maybe it wasn't because he didn't remember, but because he didn't want to act as it was.

At that time, he was dumbfounded, looking ugly after seeing a ghost.

The bitterness towards the second younger brother who is ignorant, the hatred towards him for begging him and even forcing him to sell the land to repay the debt.

Yes, the second brother said the same thing at the time, brother, I was wrong, please help me, if you don’t pay the money, Li Shi and Erya will be pulled by them to pay off the debt...Brother, I know I was wrong, in the future Don't dare to gamble anymore... Big brother, you trust me, trust me this time, big brother...

I still remember the cries of Da Ya, the cries of younger siblings, and Er Ya...

I didn't expect that girl to cry more deeply than her elder sister, with her eyes closed and her mouth wide open, for such a small person, her cry was so loud and loud!

His head was buzzing, and he was almost knocked down by her crying.

Instead of worrying about the whole family, it is better to break through the matter in advance and solve it in the town.

"The family business is weak, with only ten acres of ancestral property..." Yan Huaiwen closed his eyes and sighed, "Help me down."

Yan Lao Er angrily bumped the debt collector who came forward to offer courteousness to the side, peeked at Lao Yan's expression, and carefully helped him out of the car.

Yan Huaiwen slowly pushed him away, looked up at the signboard of Shunyi Pawnshop, and walked in slowly.

Shunxin, Shunyi.

Listening to the name, it is clear that the gambling house and the pawnshop are the same.

Yan Lao Er was crying, hesitated for a while, and followed in.

Just then he heard his brother say: "Your family is not the only pawn shop in the town. The silver taels owed by my second brother can be offset by three acres of land according to market prices."

"Yan Xiucai, you are talking in layman's terms. The price of an acre of high-quality land is seven liang. Wait, it is calculated according to the middle or even lower class, and the small one here is a pawn shop, and the pawn shop has its own rules, no matter what the pawn is, it must be discounted for another calculation, but fortunately, it is not late or owed, and it is convenient to pay in cash no."

Before the second shopkeeper of the pawn shop could reply, the big shopkeeper quickly walked out from behind and took over the conversation.

Yan Xiucai hit the nail on the head without knowing whether it was intentional or not.

That's right, there are more than Shunyi's pawnshops in this town, and it would be a bad thing if they let people go away and sell the property because of them.

You must know that Yan Xiucai's place is not a day or two for them to keep an eye on.

"The other things are not easy to sell, but I have never heard that the land is not easy to sell. It has a price but no market. If I spread the wind and want to sell the land, it can be settled immediately. The big shopkeeper is bluffing others. , don't lie to me." Yan Huaiwen said calmly.

"What you said is true, but you are only willing to cede three acres. If you sell land sporadically, the big families may not want to bother. If you sell land in the countryside, ask your relatives and friends, and ask your neighbors. If you can't find a suitable person to take over, pawnshops and pawnshops are the most convenient. We don't inspect the land or measure the land. As long as you have the land deed documents, you can go to the yamen to apply for the lease right away. If you don't have time to go, just write a handwritten letter. Zhang, I'll go on my own, and I don't need Yan Xiucai to show up." The shopkeeper was full of smiles, polite and courteous, it was expected that Yan Xiucai would not want to go to the Yamen in person.

After all, it is a person of fame and fame, and it is disgraceful to pawn the ancestral property.

"How much is the price?" Yan Huaiwen asked.

"Five taels and one mu." The shopkeeper replied immediately.

Today, someone else came, not Yan Xiucai, but someone else, who owed the opposite party's gambling debts. It is absolutely impossible for him to pay this price. He can only pay four taels at most.

But Yan Lao Er still owed less, only twenty taels, not enough!

Yan Laoer was anxious: "Three mu of land is not enough, four mu?"

This means Huo Huo went out with four acres of land, nearly half of the family property.

It's really not wrong for Lao Yan to divide his family, it should be!

Yan Huaiwen shook his head, "Instead of being undervalued, I might as well sell all the ten acres of land, get rid of the gambling debts owed by my second brother, and buy property if there is any leftover."

"Ah? They're all for sale?" Yan's second child was startled. Does Old Yan think so?

But if you think about it carefully, let go of the ancestral feelings and so on, in terms of money alone, this is indeed the way with the least loss.

Ten mu of land, seventy taels, minus twenty taels for debt repayment.

There are still fifty taels in hand.

Find a piece of land, don't buy too good, buy mediocre, maybe you can buy another ten mu back.

Lao Yan's economic accounts are as wide as possible!

its not right!

Fuck!

Isn't Lao Yan planning to leave? Ready to escape! ! !

We all have goals, what kind of Guanzhou are we going to...

Emma!

Land cannot be taken on the road, but money can!

Lucky hit? !

Old Yan decided to take the initiative, or not to wait for debtors to come to his door, his niece was crying so hard that her brain ached, chug~
