Seeing Lin Jiuyue standing at the door for so long, Xiyue was afraid that Lin Jiuyue would be tired, so she ran back into the house and moved a bench out.
"Miss, are you tired? Sit down quickly."
After saying that, he put down the stool and ran back into the house to bring out two benches.
"Village Chief, Village Chief Liu, you have worked hard too, sit down."
Lin Jiuyue saw that Xiyue was so sensible. He nodded appreciatively.
Village Chief Liu didn't expect Lin Jiuyue's maid to bring a bench out for him. Looking at the bench placed in front of him, Village Chief Liu had a complicated mood.
The people she helped were Lin Dongming's family. Not only did Miss Lin not resent herself, she even asked the maid to bring a bench for her to sit on. This left almost no room for his old face.
"Mr. Liu, these stools have been moved out. Let's just sit down and wait. Anyway, they haven't reached any conclusion yet."
Village Chief Liu nodded to the village chief sheepishly. I felt even more guilty.
Lin Dongming's family of four stayed away from the crowd and discussed quietly at the side.
It wasn't until Village Chief Liu could hardly sit still that Lin Dongming and his family came back.
"But it's been discussed?"
Lin Dongming nodded.
"It's been discussed."
Lin Jiuyue smiled.
What Lin Dongming's family had just discussed was clearly heard by him. But I heard it, but the villagers who were watching hadn't heard it yet.
"Tell me about it."
Lin Dongming was cruel and gritted his teeth, as if he had made a lot of determination.
"We'll borrow it! We'll also write the IOU!"
Lin Jiuyue nodded.
"Well, how much do you plan to borrow? As I said before, you can only borrow forty taels of silver at most, and you have to use your children as collateral. Three months, within three months, if you can't repay the silver , then don’t blame yourself for ignoring family ties.”
Lin Dongming nodded.
He said words of agreement, but in his heart he cursed Lin Jiuyue.
"Forty taels is forty taels! Where is the silver?"
Lin Jiuyue waved his hand.
"Don't worry about the money. There are so many people here to testify. I won't default on the money. Let's write the IOU first."
After Lin Jiuyue finished speaking, Xiyue ran back to the house with a wink and took out pens, inks, paper and inkstones.
"Miss, the pen, ink, paper and inkstone are all here."
Lin Jiuyue nodded lightly.
"Two village chiefs, why don't you bear witness together?"
There was nothing wrong with the village chief, but Village Chief Liu was a little hesitant. But in the end, Village Chief Liu agreed.
Lin Jiuyue saw that the two village chiefs agreed, so he picked up the pen and started writing the IOU.
"Okay, I've written four copies of this IOU, one for you and me, and one for each of the two village chiefs. Come and take a look. If there's nothing wrong with it, come over and sign it."
Lin Dongming's family was all illiterate. When he heard Lin Jiuyue said that he wanted to sign and stamp, he subconsciously stepped back.
"Um, girl Jiuyue, you also know that our whole family is illiterate, so we can't sign."
Lin Jiuyue frowned.
There were many illiterate people in ancient times. If you needed to sign a contract or something, you could usually just press your fingerprints.
"In that case, you can just find someone to sign your name. However, you have to press the fingerprints yourself."
Lin Dongming looked around the crowd and didn't know who could read.
In the end, a villager from Xiangyang Village thought it was taking too much time and took the initiative to write down the names of Lin Dongming's family.
"Okay, come here and put your fingerprints on me."
The names of Lin Dongming's family of four were all written on the IOU. When the repayment date comes, Lin Jiuyue can ask any one of them for money.
If there was no money, Lin Jinshan and Lin Jinlian would be Lin Jiuyue's people.
Of course, Lin Jiuyue would not accept Lin Jiuyue's people. At most, he would sell Lin Jinshan and his sister. By that time, brother and sister Lin Jinshan will really be servants.
"The fingerprint is on Lin Jiuyue, where is the money?"
Lin Jiuyue winked at Xiyue. Xiyue immediately took out forty taels of silver notes from her arms.
"This is a silver note, a total of forty taels of silver. You can get it at any Xianhe bank in Nanyue Kingdom."
When Lin Dongming saw Xiyue taking out forty taels of silver notes from her arms, his eyes were like those of a hungry wolf seeing delicious food, and he was reluctant to leave for a moment.
“Who will get this banknote??”
As soon as Lin Jiuyue finished speaking, Lin Dongming couldn't wait to step forward.
"Give it to me, I'll take it."
Lin Jiuyue didn't care who among them got the money. Anyway, with so many people testifying, they couldn't refuse even if they wanted to.
Even if they really default on their debts after three months, I have plenty of ways to deal with them.
Holding the banknote in his hand, Lin Dongming looked at it carefully. After seeing that there was nothing wrong with the banknote, he happily put the banknote into his pocket.
"Say, girl in September, this little money is just a joke to you? You still insist on us writing this kind of IOU. Isn't this unnecessary?"
Lin Jiuyue didn't think this was unnecessary. All I know is that Lin Dongming and his family are not good people. It is very likely that the money will not be returned by then.
Of course, even if he writes an IOU, there is no guarantee that Lin Dongming will be able to return the money to himself within the stipulated time.
"You must keep the IOU and be sure not to lose it."
Lin Dongming didn't read the contents of the IOU, and even if he did, he couldn't understand it.
"Sister Jiuyue, I remember that you didn't know how to read. How come it's not long ago that you can even write an IOU?"
Lin Jinlian looked at Lin Jiuyue in surprise.
Lin Jiuyue's sister and brother were eating and drinking at home before, and she knew exactly what Lin Jiuyue was doing.
Lin Jiuyue smiled.
"You can't learn. Do you think I'm like you, just thinking about pie falling from the sky all day long?"
After hearing this, Lin Jinlian was extremely depressed.
But the money was already in hand, and Lin Jinlian didn't say much to Lin Jiuyue.
"Come on, let's go home."
The villagers of Xiangyang Village have been waiting for this sentence for so long.
Some villagers turned around and left, while others were waiting in place.
"Sister Jiuyue, it's all thanks to you that our family can borrow money this time. Don't worry, we will definitely pay back the money."
Lin Jiuyue couldn't help but feel a little funny when he heard Lin Jinlian's "righteous and awe-inspiring" look.
When their family was discussing on the side, they had already heard it.
I couldn’t be more clear about what this big family’s plan was.
However, Lin Dongming and his wife are really big-hearted. In order to get some money from himself, he actually dared to ask his children to sign something similar to a deed of betrayal.
