Chapter 48 Repayment
I heard two voices, one thick and the other thin, but the words that came out were equally aggressive.

The deep voice said, "Zhang Mingquan, I know you are good. But I have no choice. My boss is urging the money. If I can't get the money back today, I will lose it."

"I see you, just sell the supermarket to Zheng Bahu. Your supermarket has been smashed, and it's your luck that he is willing to pay for it."

The shrill voice also spoke, "Zhang Mingquan, we agreed to pay the payment today. You must pay us the payment today. If you don't know, I have no choice but to stay at your house."

Zhang Mingquan's voice sounded exhausted, "You two, please wait for a few more days. I really don't have any money in my hand. Today not only the supermarket was smashed, but the money was also taken away."

"In three days, at most, I will definitely pay you for the goods. We have been very happy working together for so many years. I have never delayed before, just this time. Please help me."

Next to him, Zhang Mingquan's wife, Liu Xiaohui, was about to burst into tears, and said in a begging tone, "Brother Diao, Brother Du, please do me a favor, and let me give you a few days. Yes, just like what my head said, just three Days. In three days, we will definitely settle the payment."

Zhang Xu couldn't stand it anymore and walked directly into the yard, "Uncle Quan..."

Seeing Zhang Xu coming, Zhang Mingquan squeezed out a smile even though he was in a bad mood, "Xiao Xu, you go and sit in the room first. Uncle has finished dealing with these matters and will talk to you."

Zhang Xu looked at the two people, "Who are they?"

The two saw Zhang Xu, but he was a young man in his early 20s, with a look of indifference on his face.

Zhang Mingquan pointed to the two, "They are your Uncle Du Yang and Uncle Diao Ergou."

The two nodded to Zhang Xu, and then said hello.

Du Yang is the one with the thick voice, and Diao Ergou is the one with the shrill voice.

Zhang Xu said, "How much does Uncle Quan owe you?"

Du Yang spoke, "I owe you 3 yuan for the goods."

Diao Ergou, "I owe you 4 yuan for the goods."

Zhang Xu had a sneering smile on his face, "But with this little money, you're going to drive people to death. It's too much."

Diao Ergou was in a hurry, and his voice became even shriller, "It's only natural to pay back the debt. Who wants to force someone to death?"

Du Yang showed a bit of contempt on his face, "Boy, he has to pay back the money he owes us. What's the use of you talking nonsense? Could it be that you still have to pay him back?"

The villagers in Xiaohe Village are not very rich.

Almost no family can take out 7 yuan at once.

Therefore, the two were sure that Zhang Xu was unable to pay back the money for Zhang Mingquan.

Zhang Xu glanced at the two, ignored them, took the plastic bag containing the money, and stuffed it into Zhang Mingquan's hand, "Uncle Quan, here is 10 yuan, enough to pay them back."

Zhang Mingquan opened the plastic bag and saw stacks of red bills, he froze there.

Immediately, Zhang Ming showed a happy expression on the whole: If he can pay back the money, he doesn't need to sell it to the supermarket.

Although Zhang Mingquan did not agree, he actually had some hesitation in his heart, thinking whether he really wanted to sell the supermarket.

Now that I can pay back the money, I am naturally relieved.

As for Du Yang, Diao Ergou's eyes widened. He didn't expect that this kid in his early 20s would take out 10 yuan in one go.

Zhang Mingquan also relaxed his tone, "Du Yang, Diao Ergou, I will pay you back immediately."

As he spoke, Zhang Ming counted all 3 yuan and handed it to Du Yang, "This is 3 yuan. Count it carefully."

Counted 4 yuan to Diao Ergou, "This is 4 yuan, you count."

The two took the money and counted it, and it was indeed not bad.

Du Yang spoke, "Brother Ming An, I have to go back and pay the bill, so don't bother me."

Diao Ergou also said, "I should go too. Brother Ming'an, I hope we can cooperate happily in the future."

Zhang Mingquan said coldly, "Where's the receipt?"

The two immediately took out the receipt from their pockets, signed their names, and handed it to Zhang Mingquan.

Zhang Mingquan took it over.

Zhang Mingquan had made up his mind and would not cooperate with these two people in the future.

Originally, it was possible to purchase from others.

However, after cooperating with these two people for many years, Zhang Mingquan never thought of cooperating with others, even if the price of other people's goods is lower than theirs.

Today, he finally recognized these two people.

Diao Ergou and Du Yang also saw what Zhang Mingquan meant, and they were both embarrassed.

Diao Ergou walked out of the yard first and left.

Du Yang hesitated for a moment, as if he had something to say.

Zhang Mingquan sarcastically said, "Du Yang, I gave you all the money, why don't you leave? Do you still want to eat at my house?"

Du Yang sighed, "Brother Mingquan. Don't blame me, someone forced us to do this. There is nothing we can do."

Zhang Mingquan was stunned for a moment, "Who forced you to do this?"

"If you think about it, you will know. Who will buy your supermarket. If you don't pay, who will benefit?"

Zhang Mingquan looked serious, "Brother Du Yang, thank you for reminding me."

Du Yang nodded, "I'm leaving, Brother Mingquan."

Saying that, he left.

Du Yang reminded Zhang Mingquan not out of good intentions, but they are all from the same town, and he does not want to make the relationship too rigid.

Zhang Xu also saw some clues. Whether it was the supermarket being smashed or the two dunning for debts, it was not accidental.

Zhang Xu asked, "Uncle Quan, what's going on?"

Zhang Mingquan pulled Zhang Xu to sit down beside the stone table in the yard, made tea, sighed, and told Zhang Xu.

Zheng Bahu wants to spend 8 yuan to buy Zhang Mingquan's supermarket.

A few days ago, I discussed this matter with Zhang Mingquan, but Zhang Mingquan did not agree.

Today, a group of hooligans broke into the supermarket, smashed it, and stole tens of thousands of dollars in cash.

A few hours later, Du Yang and Diao Ergou came to force Zhang Ming to pay for the goods.

Originally, Zhang Mingquan only thought that he was unlucky, that he had encountered all kinds of bad things.

Hearing Du Yang's words, he also realized that these things were probably manipulated by Zheng Bahu.

Zheng Bahu is quite powerful in Anxi Town, and has also opened several stores.

Seeing that Zhang Mingquan's supermarket business was booming and making a lot of money, I wanted to buy it.

Zhang Mingquan naturally refused.

Although the payment has been paid off now, Zhang Mingquan's face is still full of worry.

These things happened if the supermarket was not sold to Zheng Bahu.

Come down, don't know what else to expect.

Zheng Bahu is not a decent person, he can use any means.

Looking at the worried Zhang Mingquan, Zhang Xu said, "Uncle Quan, don't worry, the matter will be resolved."

Zhang Mingquan only thought that Zhang Xu was comforting him, and in order not to worry Zhang Xu, he also nodded, "Yes."

Zhang Xu picked up the other three bags in his hand, "Uncle Quan, look, what are these?"
