Siheyuan: debt repayment is a matter of course

With the letter of introduction in hand, Lin Xiangdong chatted with Director Wang for a few more words before leaving.

There is no need to go home to clean up, such as a change of clothes, dry food, money, and national food coupons, etc., all in the portable space.

From the street office, take the trolleybus directly on the road to the train station.

Usually, the trolleybus on the street is crowded with people, but today was fine, when Lin Xiangdong got on the bus, there were still several empty seats.

After several stops, the tram stopped outside the train station.

After getting out of the car, Lin Xiangdong went to buy a train ticket to Baocheng.

There has been a direct railway from Beijing to Baocheng for a long time, so the train can go directly.

In this day and age, there is no ID card, like buying a train ticket, you need to have a household registration book and a letter of introduction.

Of course, it is best to have a work permit.

As soon as he arrived at the train station, Lin Xiangdong took out his household registration booklet, letter of introduction and work permit from his portable space.

After the conductor checks, the ticket is issued.

A train ticket to Baocheng actually costs [-] cents, which can almost buy a catty of pork.

Train tickets are also divided into standing tickets and sitting tickets. As the name suggests, standing tickets mean that you can only stand on the train, while sitting tickets mean you have seats.

Seat tickets are naturally more expensive than standing tickets.

What Lin Xiangdong bought was a sitting ticket. If it was a standing ticket, it only cost [-] cents, which is [-] cents cheaper.

Get your tickets and wait for the train.

There is no exact time on the ticket. You may have to wait for half an hour, maybe an hour, or even longer. If you miss it accidentally, you can get a refund at half the price, and you will need to pay more for the ticket.

If a person is waiting for the train, he dare not take a nap, and it will be bad if he misses it.

There are only a few stools by the platform, and people have already been seated.

Those who came prepared took out the small maza.

Most people are still standing and waiting for the train.

Taking out a small Maza from the portable space, Lin Xiangdong also sat down and waited for the train.

This wait is over an hour.

Flipping through a book of Journey to the West in traditional characters to pass the time.

In this cold weather, the train station has no heating. Both the people waiting for the train and the staff at the train station are all wearing cotton jackets.

"Beep beep..."

A steam train pulls into the station.

Today, the country's technology is not yet developed. The trains are coal-fired steam engines, and the speed is also slow, usually [-] kilometers per hour.

Delays on passenger trains are common.

Seeing the train arrive at the station, Lin Xiangdong stood up.

Put away the little Maza and the book in your hand, take out the train ticket and prepare to go up.

When the train stopped, the passengers in the car got off first, and then the people who checked the tickets crowded up.

Squeezing onto the train, Lin Xiangdong found his seat according to the seat number on the ticket.

Most passengers buy standing tickets.

And everyone is also self-conscious. If you buy a standing ticket, you will not sit even if there is an empty seat next to you.

Of course, there are also ticket inspectors and security guards on the train.

No one dared to make trouble on the train.

After sitting down, Lin Xiangdong closed his eyes and meditated.

Beijing and Baocheng are about 160 kilometers apart.

At a train speed of about [-] kilometers per hour, it will take more than three hours.

That is to say, if you catch up early, you can arrive in Baocheng before noon, come back from Baocheng in the afternoon, and arrive in Beijing before dark.

The train would take a while to leave, so Lin Xiangdong just closed his eyes and rested his mind.

Just as Lin Xiangdong fell asleep, the train started to move.

The coal burners on the train are all working hard.

Several burly and powerful workers took shovels and fed the accumulated coal into the furnace.

Because of the high consumption of coal, a large amount of coal is transported to the train every time the train stops.

The current coal on the train is not enough to go directly to Baocheng, and coal still needs to be replenished on the way.

When the train starts to move, the speed is very slow, but gradually it speeds up.

……

On the way to Baocheng, the train stopped several times.

Therefore, it took about four hours for Lin Xiangdong to arrive in Baocheng.

Baocheng and Jingcheng are of course incomparable.

As far as the railway station is concerned, there is currently only one in Baocheng, and it is not big.

Walking out of the train station, looking around, there are all kinds of old and low buildings.

There are slogans or porcelain paintings on the walls here and there.

The breath of the times is coming, although it is not as good as the capital city, it has a different scene.

Baocheng said that it was not too big, and it was not too difficult to find He Daqing.

If you are not familiar with the place in life, just ask if you have a mouth.

After asking more than a dozen people, Lin Xiangdong finally came to the White Widow's house.

An aunt was drying clothes in the yard, and when she saw Lin Xiangdong wandering outside the door, she came over.

"Young man, who are you looking for?" asked the aunt.

"Does He Daqing live here?" Lin Xiangdong asked.

As soon as she heard that she was looking for He Daqing, the aunt immediately became vigilant.

"Who are you? Why are you looking for He Daqing?"

If Lin Xiangdong guessed correctly, this aunt should be the White Widow.

"Who is looking for me?" He Daqing who was in the room also heard it and walked out.

When he saw Lin Xiangdong, He Daqing felt a little familiar, but he didn't remember it for a while.

"Uncle He, I'm Lin Xiangdong." Lin Xiangdong.

"Dongzi? Why did you come to Baocheng to look for me?" He Daqing had surprise in his eyes, but no expression on his face. After all, he had facial paralysis.

The White Widow stood aside, staring at Lin Xiangdong vigilantly.

If He Daqing was to return to the capital, the White Widow would stop her whatever she said.

With He Daqing's help, the White Widow and her children lived well. If He Daqing left, it would be difficult for the White Widow.

"Uncle He, let's talk alone." Lin Xiangdong said.

But He Daqing looked at the White Widow.

The white widow stared, and He Daqing asked Lin Xiangdong to speak here.

"Uncle He, you borrowed 100 yuan from my mother before, look..." Lin Xiangdong took out the IOU.

Before He Daqing took it, the White Widow reached out and snatched it.

This white widow still knows a few big characters, and after reading the IOU, her complexion is not good.

100 yuan is not a small amount of money!

Then, He Daqing also read the IOU.

He Daqing admitted the 100 yuan owed to Lin Xiangdong.

"It's been so many years, I should pay it back." He Daqing said.

However, He Daqing didn't have much personal money, so it was okay to ask him to take out ten or eight yuan, but he didn't have one if he was asked to take out 100 yuan.

So, He Daqing looked at the White Widow.

The White Widow has a lot of money.

However, the White Widow kept a cold face.

"Uncle He, if you don't pay back the money today, you will have to go to court." Lin Xiangdong's face darkened.

Chapter 81 Did He Daqing Send Money?

What is there to say about debt repayment?Lin Xiangdong didn't want to talk about it, he couldn't keep it private.

There is no need to be too polite with He Daqing.

Just He Daqing, who left his children behind and came to protect the city with a widow, is that glorious?

When He Daqing came to Baocheng, He Yushui was still in primary school!

It can be said that He Daqing is irresponsible.

"Dongzi, there is no one like you." He Daqing was not very happy when he heard what Lin Xiangdong knew.

The White Widow was even more mean: "No money!"

"Uncle He, when you were in trouble back then, my mother borrowed the money without saying a word, but now I ask you to repay the money and push back? For many years, if you give me a dollar to make sense of it, it's not too much for me!" Lin Xiangdong said calmly.

Indeed, according to what Lin Xiangdong said, it is not too much.

After all, it is a debt of 100 yuan, and it has been borrowed for many years, and the interest for one yuan is not much.

He Daqing looked at the White Widow asking for help, and the White Widow turned her head away.

The attitude of the White Widow made He Daqing feel a little chilled.

Seeing that He Daqing remained silent, Lin Xiangdong smiled and said, "Since Uncle He won't pay back the money, fine, I'll go to the police station now."

As soon as the words fell, Lin Xiangdong made a gesture to leave, He Daqing was startled, and quickly grabbed Lin Xiangdong.

And the White Widow is not calm anymore.

If Lin Xiangdong makes a big fuss, He Daqing might have to squat.

Even if He Daqing didn't squat, he might not be able to keep his job, and his reputation would still be bad.

100 yuan is a lot, but if Lin Xiangdong makes a big fuss, the White Widow will suffer even more.

"Uncle He, it's not that I'm embarrassing you. Think about it differently. If you lend me 100 yuan and I don't pay it back after many years, how would you feel?" Lin Xiangdong asked with an 'angry' face.

He Daqing was a little ashamed to be asked by Lin Xiangdong.

"Return, definitely." He Daqing said loudly.

The White Widow, who was reluctant to spend 100 yuan, was still struggling, but He Daqing made her attitude clear.

"I'll find someone to borrow it now." He Daqing said in a deep voice.

After all, he has been in Baocheng for so many years, and He Daqing still has some friends, so it is not a problem to borrow 100 yuan.

Seeing that He Daqing was about to ask someone to borrow money, the White Widow hurriedly called to stop him.

"There is still some money at home, so there is no need to borrow it from others." The White Widow said to He Daqing.

At this moment, the White Widow's heart was bleeding.

It's not that the White Widow didn't want to renege on her debts, but Lin Xiangdong came all the way from the capital to protect the city, so he opened up again.

And the White Widow doesn't know much about it, even if she tore up the IOU now, is there no witness in the capital?

If He Daqing made a big fuss for 100 yuan, what would she, the White Widow, do in the future?

Two powers harm each other whichever is less!
