When Lin Dongming heard Lin Jiuyue say this, he thought Lin Jiuyue was afraid of him. I felt even more proud.

"Wouldn't you have said this earlier? We don't have to talk so much. Your time now is more precious than ours. We country people don't have much. I'm afraid you can't afford it."

Lin Jiuyue:......

I take back what I just said, this Lin Dongming is still the same Lin Dongming and has not improved much.

"Tell me what you want to do."

Lin Dongming cleared his throat.

"Actually, I don't want to make our relationship so tense. We are relatives after all, but you always speak with thorns. This is not good..."

Lin Jiuyue raised his hand to interrupt Lin Dongming.

"If you have something to say, tell me immediately. If nothing happens, leave my house. You are not welcome in my home."

Seeing Lin Jiuyue being so direct, Lin Dongming knew that Lin Jiuyue was really tired of his family. He stopped nagging at the moment and spoke directly.

"It's nothing serious. I just want to borrow some money from you."

Lin Jiuyue sneered.

Borrow some money to spend? If you lend this money, can you still get it back?

"Oh? Then tell me how much money you want to borrow?"

Lin Dongming frowned. I didn't know what to say for a moment.

I borrowed too much, and I was afraid that Lin Jiuyue wouldn't have it. I borrowed less and was afraid of missing this opportunity.

After hesitating for a moment, he turned his attention to Lin Jinlian again.

Lin Jinlian's lips parted slightly.

"One hundred taels of silver."

Before Lin Jiuyue could be shocked, the surrounding villagers began to be shocked.

"What? One hundred taels of silver? Is Lin Dongming crazy? As soon as he opened his mouth, it was a hundred taels of silver!"

"Really? Among us farmers, who can afford a hundred taels of silver? Lin Dongming is better. He got a hundred taels of silver as soon as he opened his mouth. Does he really think that the silver fell from the sky?"

Not only the villagers of Shangbei Village think so, but also the villagers of Xiangyang Village feel that Lin Dongming has gone too far.

The first thing he asked for was to borrow a hundred taels of silver. It is estimated that the people in Shangbei Village and Xiangyang Village combined would not be able to find two families with so much money, right?

Among the people present, only Lin Dongming's family didn't think anything was wrong.

"A hundred taels of silver? Lin Dongming, are you dreaming? Ask the people present who can come up with a hundred taels of silver at once."

Seeing that Lin Jiuyue's attitude was not as firm as before, Lin Dongming thought that Lin Jiuyue had figured it out and was willing to spend money to send his family away.

"You can even afford a servant. One hundred taels of silver. It shouldn't be a problem for you, right?"

Lin Dongming asked with some uncertainty.

Lin Jiuyue laughed out loud when he heard this.

"why are you laughing?"

"I'm laughing at you. It's not dark yet and I'm already dreaming."

Lin Dongming:......

Looking at this, Lin Jiuyue probably couldn't come up with a hundred taels of silver.

Also!

To buy a servant, it can cost as little as a few taels of silver or as much as dozens of taels of silver. It's normal for Lin Jiuyue to be unable to take it out.

"Then, how about less? Eighty taels of silver."

Lin Jiuyue was speechless.

"Not even eighty taels."

"Sister Jiuyue, our family really doesn't have any rice to cook with, otherwise we wouldn't have the shamelessness to come here and borrow money from you. We don't have eighty taels of silver, so how much money can you lend our family?"

Lin Jinlian couldn't sit still now and asked directly.

A smile appeared on Lin Jiuyue's lips.

Are you finally willing to stand up?

"You can borrow money, but eighty taels of silver is indeed a bit too much. I don't have that much."

When Lin Dongming heard what Lin Jiuyue said, his face burst into laughter.

"Girl in September, how much money can you lend us?"

The eighty taels and one hundred taels were all tested by the family. According to their own ideas, it would be good if Lin Jiuyue could lend him twenty taels of silver.

Of course, if the money is 'borrowed', it is up to you to decide when to pay it back.

Others in the Lin family also believed that Lin Jiuyue was forced by the presence of so many people and was too embarrassed to refuse to borrow it, lest it affect his reputation. Everyone was so happy.

"Eight coppers!"

"It's just eight copper coins. If you want it, I'll give it to you, and you don't have to pay it back. If you don't want it, forget it."

Lin Dongming:......

Lin Jinlian:......

"Eight copper coins? Lin Jiuyue, are you sending the beggar?"

Lin Jiuyue looked at Lin Dongming with an incredible expression.

"What? Isn't eight coppers too little? I don't need you to pay back. Eight coppers is a lot! Two more coppers can buy a pound of meat."

After Lin Jiuyue finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something again.

"How about this? I'll give you ten coppers, and you can just buy a pound of meat and take it back to improve the food."

There was a trace of cruelty in Lin Dongming's eyes.

Lin Jiuyue, does he really think of himself as a beggar?

You have money to buy someone, but you don’t have money to lend it to your uncle? Who would believe this?

"Lin Jiuyue, my uncle has heard that not only did you buy a servant, but you also opened a grain store in the town, and you also bought 20 acres of high-quality farmland."

"You said you only gave ten copper coins. How did you have the nerve to say that?"

Lin Jiuyue blinked pretending to be innocent.

"What? Ten coppers are not money? If anyone can give me ten coppers, I won't be happy before it's too late. It's a good thing for you that you even dislike it."

"Since you look down on ten coppers so much, it means you are not as short of money as you said."

Lin Jinlian thought that Lin Jiuyue would care about reputation now that he was rich.

Unexpectedly, Lin Jiuyue was still the same as before, looking like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water.

"Sister Jiuyue, these ten copper coins are indeed a little short. We came here this time just to borrow some silver from you. Don't worry, we lent us this silver and we will definitely pay it back in the future."

Lin Jiuyue looked at Lin Jinlian with a half-smile.

"Repay it? When will it be repaid? How much is the interest? Whose name is written on the IOU?"

As soon as Lin Jiuyue's words came out, Lin Jinlian's face became ugly.

"Sister Jiuyue, our two families are relatives. Wouldn't saying this affect the relationship between the two families?"

Lin Jiuyue smiled.

"There is a saying that brothers should settle accounts clearly. If you borrow money, naturally you have to write an IOU? What if you don't accept the debt then?"

Lin Jinlian said quickly.

"How could it be? Sister Yue Yue. It is only natural to pay back debts. Since we can borrow money, we will naturally pay back the money."

"In this case, then you should pay back the previous money first."

Lin Jinlian was stunned.

The money before? What money was there before? Why don’t I remember what money I borrowed from Lin Jiuyue?

"Lin Jiuyue, what are you talking about? When did we borrow money from you before?"

Lin Jiuyue looked at Lin Dongming with an expression of 'I knew it was like this'.
