Chapter 107 Lessons and Money

Hearing Xia Jizu's words, Jiang Wenxiang's face darkened, and he said displeasedly, "Young Master Xia, do you think I lied to you?"

At this point, Jiang Wenxiang paused, reached out to take out a stack of papers, shook them in front of Xia Jizu, and then continued, "Young Master Xia, these written documents in my hand are all written by you yourself."

Jiang Wenxiang took out a few sheets from the stack of papers and said.

"Young Master Xia, look, you borrowed me 50 taels of silver just for this piece of paper, I remember very clearly that you borrowed it the day before yesterday.

That day you borrowed not only the 50 taels of silver, the first time you borrowed 1 taels from me, but you lost.

Immediately afterwards, you borrowed another 20 taels of silver from me, and after the money was lost, you borrowed the 50 taels of silver from me.

I remember it very clearly, but that night, you borrowed a total of 90 taels of silver from me. How many days have you thought about it? You only borrowed 200 million taels of silver. Is that too much? "

Listening to Jiang Wenxiang's words, Xia Jizu's forehead had beaded beads of sweat, and he felt cold all over his body, even his clothes were soaked.

"Brother Jiang, is it true, did I really borrow all the money?"

After hearing Xia Jizu's words, Jiang Wenxiang glared and said angrily, "Young Master Xia, you borrowed all this money from me. If it wasn't for the good relationship between the two of us, if others wanted to borrow it, I would return it to you." Don't borrow him, do you understand?"

Xia Jizu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and asked in a trembling voice, "Brother Jiang, I believe in you, I believe in you..."

Having said that, Xia Jizu paused, wiped off the sweat that seemed impossible to wipe off again, and then continued, "Brother Jiang, this money is too much, see if you can reduce it a bit, we are all friends... …”

When Jiang Wenxiang heard the words, he stopped abruptly, turned around and grabbed Xia Jizu's shoulder, and said angrily.

"Xia Jizu, don't you think my silver came from the strong wind? How can this reduce..."

Speaking of this, Jiang Wenxiang paused, grabbed Xia Jizu and shook him vigorously, and shouted sharply, "Xia Jizu, don't you want to return my money?"

Seeing Jiang Wenxiang's vicious look, Xia Jizu was a little scared, he stepped back, trying to break away from Jiang Wenxiang's hand, but Jiang Wenxiang's hand was held tightly, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break away from Jiang Wenxiang's hand.

"Brother Jiang, please speak up if you have something to say..."

Jiang Wenxiang pulled Xia Jizu in front of him, stared at him for a while, then suddenly laughed, and let go of his hand.

"Young Master Xia, why do you do this? It's not that your Xia family is short of these silvers. You just need to go back and tell me, and you will naturally be able to return the money. Why bother to cause a division between us brothers?"

Having said that, Jiang Wenxiang paused for a moment before continuing, "Master Xia, people's luck is sometimes high and sometimes low.

When you're lucky, you can't stop it, and when you're unlucky, you can't even cry. "

Jiang Wenxiang reached out and patted Xia Jizu's shoulder, "I think back then, my luck was as bad as yours..."

Speaking of this, Jiang Wenxiang shook his head with a wry smile, "You don't know how bad my luck was back then. Even our old house was mortgaged by me, and I lost it all in the end."

Speaking of this, Jiang Wenxiang's tone suddenly rose, "But later, when I was lucky, not only won the old house back, but also won a lot of money, otherwise, I would not have so much money to lend you.

So, Mr. Xia, don't be discouraged. Don't look at you losing 200 million taels of silver. The amount seems to be quite large, but if your luck comes, hehe, winning back the 200 million taels of silver is simply as easy as pie. "

After listening to Jiang Wenxiang's words, although Xia Jizu's eyes lit up, the frustration on his face did not dissipate.

"Brother Jiang, I also know what you said is reasonable, but the two million taels of silver is really too much. Otherwise, why don't you wait for two days and return it to you after I win the silver?"

Hearing this, Jiang Wenxiang patted Xia Jizu on the shoulder and sighed, "Brother, we two are like brothers. Logically speaking, I shouldn't be so eager to ask for money, but you don't know, my father and I If other people do business in partnership and want to use this money, if I can’t get it out, I’m afraid I’m going to be unlucky.”

Having said that, Jiang Wenxiang paused before continuing, "Even if I am unlucky, it doesn't matter, at most I will be beaten, but your Xia family, I'm afraid..."

Before Jiang Wenxiang finished speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by Xia Jizu, who was profusely sweating, "Brother Jiang, stop talking, I will go back and tell my mother, and try to return the money."

Jiang Wenxiang shook his head, "Young Master Xia, it's not that you try your best, but that you must return the money to me within three days. Then I don't know, I'm afraid we will meet in the yamen!"

Hearing the word yamen, Xia Jizu suddenly remembered what happened in the yamen last time, his whole body trembled, and he nodded repeatedly, "Okay, brother Jiang, within three days, I will definitely return the money to you."

After hearing Xia Jizu's words, Jiang Wenxiang nodded in satisfaction, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said, "Master Xia, I don't think you need to come out this afternoon. We will go play after you have raised enough money." What do you think of it?"

Hearing Jiang Wenxiang's words, Xia Jizu shook his head hastily, "Brother Jiang, raising money has nothing to do with how much we play. Our appointment in the afternoon must continue."

Speaking of this, Xia Jizu's tone paused, and continued with some embarrassment, "Brother Jiang, I will trouble you at that time and lend me some more money. You know, I'm tight..."

Seeing Xia Jizu's impatient look, Jiang Wenxiang secretly laughed, patted Xia Jizu on the shoulder, and sighed.

"Master Xia, who told us to be brothers, brother opened his mouth, how could I not agree to you?"

Having said that, Jiang Wenxiang paused for a moment before continuing, "Then it's the old rule, we'll see each other in the afternoon.

However, you have to pay close attention to my 200 million taels of silver. If my father finds out, your Xia family will face a lawsuit, understand? "

Hearing that Jiang Wenxiang said that he could continue to play a few games in the afternoon, Xia Jizu nodded hurriedly.

"Brother Jiang, since you treat me as a brother, I naturally can't embarrass you. You don't have to worry about the money. When you get back, tell my mother to return the money to you."

Speaking of this, Xia Jizu's tone paused, and he asked tentatively, "Brother Jiang, what about the money for this afternoon..."

"Ha ha……!"

Jiang Wenxiang laughed and nodded, "No problem, absolutely no problem, don't worry about the money in the afternoon, you can borrow as much as you want, haha..."

At the end, Jiang Wenxiang couldn't help laughing happily.

Hearing Jiang Wenxiang's laughter, Xia Jizu laughed happily when he thought that he could play again in the afternoon.

……

Ye Qingqing turned his head to look at the backs of the two, and sighed secretly in his heart. Hearing Xia Jizu and Jiang Wenxiang's laughter felt extremely harsh.

Xia Jizu met Jiang Wenxiang, a bad guy, and he wasn't spoiled by Jiang Wenxiang's play!

Originally eating delicious steamed buns, now that he ate them in his mouth, Ye Qingli felt that the taste was like chewing wax, and he didn't feel the same as before.

Ye Qingyi dropped the half-eaten bun in his hand, and turned to look at the shop inside the house.

"Bill, please!"

……

After paying the bill, Ye Qingqing walked all the way home with Jing Wu who was full.

Ye Qingqing came to the door of Xia Mansion, and was about to go in, but saw Xia Mengmeng coming out of the mansion in a hurry.

……

Xia Mengmeng was very annoyed, what happened these two days, Zhou Wenxin, that annoying guy, kept making troubles for him, and even said that the Jade Buddha statue sold to him that day was fake, and asked him to give the money away. Give it back to him.

How is this possible? There were so many people watching it at the time. Even if Zhou Wenxin was dazzled, could it be that everyone's eyes were dazzled!

I also stepped forward to observe the Jade Buddha statue for a while, and there is absolutely no fake!
Xia Mengmeng is still very confident in her vision. She believes that she will never be wrong. This must be because Zhou Wenxin has plans for her and took the opportunity to pester her.

Zhou Wenxin sent someone to tell him yesterday that he would take the jade Buddha statue to Xia's shop today to find out about it.

If there is a reasonable solution, he will be sued to the Yamen.

The reason Xia Mengmeng was going out at this moment was to meet Zhou Wenxin in the shop and settle the matter by the way.

Just as Xia Mengmeng walked out of the gate and was about to get into the carriage, she inadvertently saw Ye Qingqing walking towards her. She couldn't help being stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, she quickly waved to Ye Qingqing, signaling him to come over.

Ye Qingqing also had something to say to Xia Mengmeng, when he saw Xia Mengmeng waving his hand, he quickly walked over.

"You..., get in the car first!"

Seeing Ye Qingqing approaching, Xia Mengmeng was about to ask him where he was going, but felt a little embarrassed, so he changed the subject, and before Ye Qingqing could speak, he got into the carriage first.

Ye Qingqing hurriedly ordered Xia's servants to lead Jing Wu to his room to rest, then jumped into the carriage and sat opposite Xia Mengmeng.

Seeing Ye Qingsi sitting in, Xia Mengmeng subconsciously moved a little to the side to put a distance away from Ye Qingqing, and then asked in a low voice.

"Where have you been during this time, and why have you been there for so long?"

Ye Qingqing let Xia Mengmeng know about it, and just waved his hand casually, "I went to Ci'an Temple to do some things, so I'll be back soon."

Hearing Ye Qingqing's answer, Xia Mengmeng suddenly remembered the young monk outside and asked in a low voice.

"Is that monk a monk from Ci'an Temple?"

Ye Qingqing nodded, "His name is Jingwu, and he is a disciple of Master Yuzhao of Ci'an Temple. He came back with me this time because he has something to do."

Speaking of this, Ye Qingqing paused, and asked with a smile, "You go out so early, is there something wrong?"

Hearing Ye Qingqing's question, Xia Mengmeng couldn't help but sighed, "It's not Zhou Wenxin's fault."

Xia Mengmeng looked up at Ye Qingqing, "Do you still remember the jade Buddha statue that you sold to Zhou Wenxin last time?"

Hearing Xia Mengmeng's words, Ye Qingqing immediately understood what happened.

The Jade Buddha statue was originally a fake. Although it was raised to a higher level after the system's attributes were improved at that time, it would return to the original level after half an hour.

Zhou Wenxin spent a lot of money, and he would not be reconciled to spending so much money.

Ye Qingli nodded, "So it's about this matter."

Xia Mengmeng took an annoyed look at Ye Qingqing, "This is something you made up, you must find a way to solve this matter today, lest Zhou Wenxin bother me."

Ye Qingqing nodded with a smile, and said teasingly, "Of course we have to solve it. He always comes to bother my beautiful wife, so of course it won't work!"

Hearing Ye Qingqing praised her beauty, Xia Mengmeng still blushed a little, and scolded, "Don't talk nonsense, it's the business to find a way to solve Zhou Wenxin!"

Ye Qingqing nodded with a smile, but suddenly his face changed, "Zhou Wenxin's problem is simple, but there is another big problem, which is the most difficult to solve."

Looking at Ye Qingyi's frown, Xia Mengmeng tentatively asked, "What's the matter?"

Ye Qingyi sighed, "What about your younger brother Xia Jizu?"

Hearing Ye Qingqing's words, Xia Mengmeng shook her head, "We can't talk about the matter of our ancestors, even if we do, it will make Erniang unhappy, so why bother asking for trouble."

Ye Qingqing heard the words, shook his head with a wry smile, "Do you think it's still that kind of small problem, let me tell you, if I say it out, you don't know how scared you will be?"

Xia Mengmeng glared at Ye Qingqing charmingly, "You're talking nonsense, you must not say what big problems can happen to your ancestors."

Seeing that Xia Mengmeng didn't believe it, Ye Qingqing sighed, "I had breakfast on the way back today, and while eating breakfast, I met Jizu and Jiang Wenxiang."

Speaking of this, Ye Qingqing's tone paused for a moment, but then, without waiting for Xia Mengmeng to answer his own words, he continued talking on his own.

"I turned my back to them at the time, and they didn't see my face clearly, so I heard their conversation and knew what my ancestors had been doing during this time."

Hearing Ye Qingqing's words, Xia Mengmeng's eyes turned serious, "What did you hear? What did Jizu do?"

Speaking of this, Xia Mengmeng suddenly exclaimed, stared at Ye Qingqing with wide eyes, and asked in surprise, "Jiang Wenxiang? Could it be that Jizu and Jiang Wenxiang went to that kind of place again?"

Ye Qingqing nodded, "You're right, Jizu has been going to that kind of place with Jiang Wenxiang for the past few days, not only that, but he also lost a lot of money..."

Hearing what you Ye Qingqing said, Xia Mengmeng's eyes were filled with tears, "Jizu! Well, no matter what this time, even if Erniang reprimands me, I have to make it clear to her.

If Jizu continues like this, he will never be able to pull back!
It's a pity that our Xia family only has this one male. If our ancestors go on this road, what will our Xia family do in the future! "

Seeing that Xia Mengmeng was only worried about Xia Jizu going astray, but didn't care about how much money Xia Jizu had lost, Ye Qingqing sighed secretly in his heart.

"Mengmeng, it doesn't matter what path Jizu is on now, do you know how much money he has lost in the past few days?"

Xia Mengmeng shook her head, took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes, "As long as the ancestors can correct their evil and return to the right, losing a little money can be regarded as a lesson."

Hearing Xia Mengmeng's answer, Ye Qingqing nodded and sighed, "Mengmeng, you are right, but don't you think the lesson of 200 million taels is too big?"
