Spoiling my mistress and swallowing my dowry? After my rebirth, I changed my marriage to a powerful
Chapter 427: Nothing Goes Away
"When buying land in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, you can use real silver notes."
The "Jiushe" who bought the land is actually named Nanxing!
The owner of the popular shop is actually named Bei Chen.
The clerk of the "Silver Bank" was actually named Xiu Ning.
The young master who is now going to collect the "fake" banknotes is actually named Guanyan.
Xie Zhaozhao now truly understood.
Emperor Chen, you are such a sinister guy, how many tricks do you have?
If the people of Xujia Village knew that they had thrown away all the real silver notes, they would probably vomit blood, right? !
*Xujia Village.
"I am the young master of the Cathay Bank. I will accept a fake silver note for one tael of silver. I will accept a few samples, but I will not accept any more."
Guanyan is dressed in brocade clothes, and he has the aura of a young master of the bank.
His words made everyone feel once again how painful it is to be stabbed by counterfeit money.
The denomination doesn't matter, one piece can only be exchanged for one or two taels of silver, and you have to rush to exchange it, otherwise it will just be a piece of waste paper that rots in your hands.
Everyone knew that the banknotes in their hands were fake and they were reluctant to give them up, but if they didn't change them, they would not be worth even one or two taels.
The constable followed Xu Lizheng to Xujia Village to investigate and happened to see Guanyan buying fake silver bills.
The constable asked him suspiciously, "Who are you and what are you doing here?"
Guan Yan said, "I am the young master of Cathay Bank. I heard that there are fake banknotes here, so I came to take a look and collect a few. I will go back and study how the other party forged them and increase the anti-counterfeiting measures."
There's nothing wrong with that.
The detective said, "You can't collect them all. We need to collect evidence."
"I will definitely not take too many fake silver bills. I will just keep some for bill research."
The constable asked around in the village and said he would go to the two neighboring villages to ask more.
The swindler named Su Zhe had been gone for many days. The constable sighed and said, "The chances of finding him are slim. Don't hold out hope. He must have come here to commit fraud."
"What should we do? Master Constable, you have to make the decision for us!"
"I have been a detective for more than ten years and have seen many scammers, but this is the first time I have seen such a large amount of money.
This person may have fled to other countries. If he stays in Yulong Country with such a big scam, he will be killed if caught."
Who is still waiting in the country?
The constable asked a few questions, looked at the villagers sympathetically, and left.
Guanyan said, "Do you want to sell it? If not, I will leave."
After he said this, the head of the village quickly took the "fake silver note" and sold it to Guanyan.
"Look how pitiful the whole village is. Isn't your price of one tael of silver too cheap?" said the head of the village.
Guan Yan laughed and said, "Li Zheng, these are fake banknotes! I paid one tael of silver because I felt sorry for you all!"
"For bills with a value less than ten taels, we can exchange them by the piece. For bills with a value over ten taels, we can exchange them for one or two lines for every ten taels?"
Guan Yan shook his head: "If I have to pay 500 taels for a 5,000 tael note, wouldn't I be a fool?"
The head of the village begged again and again. In fact, those who donated more than five hundred taels were people like him and Mr. Xu, and the other people did not have that much money.
Guanyan finally decided to exchange one hundred taels for one tael, and for other small amounts, one tael for each piece.
Soon, Guanyan exchanged a bunch of silver notes.
However, he would remind some ordinary small families that their small-denomination silver was real money, and some small families were very happy.
But he was not polite at all to the head of the village, Mr. Xu Erye, Xu Tiezhu, and the village chief - all of yours are fake.
Everyone was a little afraid of silver bills, so Guanyan basically paid in cash and large bills, and no longer used silver bills.
Perfect finish.
After leaving the town, he immediately changed the decorations of the carriage and his own clothes.
The "Young Master of Cathay Bank" disappeared from the world ever since.
Selling land and fake banknotes drained all the energy from the people in the village.
The village chief, the head of the village and Mr. Xu were the three families that suffered the greatest losses.
Mr. Xu was a scholar. In order to evade taxes, some people registered their land under his name. When something unexpected happened in his family, he claimed the land as his own.
He took 20% of the harvest from the land under his name, so he lived a very good life. Gradually, he accumulated 200 acres of land and became a new landlord.
This time, both the principal and interest were lost.
When someone revealed that the land sold by the entire village was actually sold at ten times the price, the villagers were extremely angry and the three families were smashed to pieces.
Mr. Xu had a stroke. His children and grandchildren were so shocked that they fell from heaven to hell and had no time to take care of him. Mr. Xu died before the first month of the year.
The village chief and the head of the village had their homes smashed and their heads broken by the villagers.
At the beginning of the first lunar month, bricks and stones were piled up outside the garden, waiting for the ground to thaw so that they could start building the foundation of the wall.
There was no progress in the Xujiacun case, and Zhou Shaoyu took action and handled it quite cleanly.
Jiangsu and Zhejiang only cheated the people of Xujia Village. Except for a few families, the land of Wang Xiaozhuang and Wangji was sold to the government.
Xu Li finally came back, Xu Erlei was found, but Xu Sanduo was not found. After the mine was found, Zhou Shaoyu immediately ordered the arrest of the mine owner, the local county magistrate, and all nine clans of the illegal mine. Those who should be killed should be killed, and those who should be exiled should be exiled.
Xu Li went personally with the local chief steward to capture the man, and searched for Xu Sanduo at the mine, but they didn't find him.
The mine owner only had a simple roll call registration at the time, and the names were recorded quite roughly, and if someone died, they would just be crossed out.
Xu Li burst into tears as he looked at the list. He really didn't know which one was the one that represented his brother.
Xu Erlei worked as a security guard in the home of a juren's son in the city. Xu Li redeemed him, but the juren's son did not want any more money and insisted on having a good relationship with Xu Erlei, so he returned the indenture contract to Xu Erlei.
Xu Li, Xu Erlei and Xu Erlang returned to Xujia Village together.
Xu Tiezhu, who had lost his land and money, burst into tears when he saw Xu Li.
"Fourth brother, please have pity on me, I can't survive"
Xu Li said coldly: "How can you not survive? Isn't the money you earned from selling your brothers enough to feed you for a lifetime?"
Liu Ermei still wanted to act tough, but Xu Li yelled, and Changming and Bomu rushed over and slapped her twice.
Liu Ermei screamed, "I'm going to fight you. How dare you hit my eldest sister-in-law?"
"Are you worthy?" Xu Erlei, who was standing next to Xu Li, looked at Liu Ermei and Xu Tiezhu. "Our parents gave us brothers to your eldest brother, but you sold us one by one. I became a servant, my third brother was sold to a charcoal mine, and my fourth brother was sold to the palace to be a eunuch! How can you be called human? Even animals are better than you."
Only then did Xu Tiezhu realize that it was Xu Erlei who had returned.
The two brothers didn't say much to them. They repaired their parents' tomb and built a small ancestral hall with two rooms next to the tomb.
Xu Erlei still has to go look for his third brother.
Xu Li said to Xu Tiezhu and Xu Dalang, "I'm going back this time and I won't be back again. Erlang will be adopted by me, right? Let's go through the adoption procedures, shall we?"
Xu Erlang's eyes lit up with excitement.
Xu Tiezhu and Liu Ermei were also cheered up.
but--
"I don't agree~" Xu Dalang was the first to object.
Xu Sanlang: "I don't agree either."
Xu Tiezhu: "I raised him up, I can't just adopt him because you say so. He's already sixteen years old and can do all the housework, so why is he being filial to you in vain?"
Liu Ermei: "Yes, you must give us... 1,600 taels of silver."
Someone has to make up the money from selling the land.
As soon as Liu Ermei said this, Xu Tiezhu and Xu Dalang looked at Xu Li eagerly. This might anger Xu Li, right?
Xu Erlei had a blank expression on his face, and he hated it to death in his heart.
If his fourth brother hadn't told him not to do it, he would have wanted to knock Xu Tiezhu down with one punch.
Xu Li: "Okay, you are not allowed to look for Erlang anymore. No matter what he inherits in the future, you are not allowed to ask him for money."
When the villagers heard how happy he was, they were so envious that their eyes turned red, and they wanted to say, "I am willing to adopt my son to you."
Xu Tiezhu was about to say "yes" when Xu Dalang asked, "How will you treat him in the future? Will you let him enter the palace to be a eunuch?"
Yes, Xu Li was born a eunuch. Would he bring Xu Erlang into the palace to be a eunuch?
Xu Erlang's face also changed drastically.
Xu Li sneered: "I am different from you. Don't worry, I will ask His Majesty to give him a title, and I will leave him the general's mansion that His Majesty gave me, as well as all the jewelry and silver that His Majesty rewarded me. I will also marry him a lady from a wealthy family as his principal wife, and she will be in charge of the household affairs of the mansion..."
Xu Erlang flew up excitedly.
After two months of living a life of debauchery, he has become completely accustomed to the identity of "young master". Asking him to return to Xujia Village would be more painful than killing him.
My fourth uncle has given me such good conditions, my parents should be satisfied, right?
Who knew that Xu Dalang would be the first to jump out: "No, I don't agree!"
He looked at Xu Tiezhu and his wife and explained, "One thousand six hundred taels of silver is not even worth a set of clothes for them. We raised him to this age, why should we give him away for free?"
Liu Ermei said, "Yes, yes, yes, it will cost two thousand six hundred taels."
Xu Dalang: "Five thousand taels."
Liu Ermei: .....My eldest son said it well!
Xu Li looked at Xu Erlang's eager expression, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let's sign the document, and no one is allowed to regret it."
As they were preparing to sign the paperwork, Xu Erlang excitedly said to Xu Li, "Fourth Uncle, today the adoption formalities are completed, and I will call you father!"
Xu Li patted his shoulder, but looked at Chang Ming not far away, who secretly made a gesture to him.
Soon, when Bo Mu was writing documents, Chang Ming was muttering excitedly beside Xu Dalang, "This amount of money is just enough for a meal."
After it was written, both parties had to put their fingerprints on it, and the ancestral hall would open to change Xu Erlang's affiliation in the family tree.
Xu Li said: "You all have to put your fingerprints on it. If Dalang or Sanlang regret it, it will be too troublesome. Erlang will have a noble status in the future, and you can't get involved with him."
Liu Ermei said, "Hurry up and press the fingerprints." She did not hesitate to press them, but Xu Dalang grabbed her and said together with Xu Sanlang, "You can't press the fingerprints."
Liu Ermei, Xu Tiezhu, Xu Li, Xu Erlang: "Why?"
"He will never come back, which is equivalent to breaking off the relationship. Five thousand taels of silver is not enough. We want ten thousand taels of silver, one thousand taels of gold, and two courtyards in the city."
Everyone: ! ! !
Xu Li looked at him solemnly, but Xu Dalang did not flinch. He swallowed and said again, "Father and mother, we have to leave here and go to the capital."
Liu Ermei and Xu Tiezhu reacted and said, "We can't use fingerprints. That's too easy for you."
Xu Li picked up the deed, looked at it again, tore it up in twos and threes, scattered the pieces of paper, and said, "I will not adopt this son."
Liu Ermei and Xu Tiezhu panicked: "We agreed to adopt you, why don't you want to?"
Xu Dalang and Xu Sanlang were also a little panicked: "It's a business deal. We can ask for a price and you can bargain!"
"Haha, I said I was adopting him. I was just being kind and wanted to share the burden with you. But you sold him to me? Ten thousand taels of silver, one thousand taels of gold, and two courtyards in the city? Are you sure Erlang is worth that much?"
Xu Li led the horse and said to Changming and Bomu, "Let's go!"
Liu Ermei and Xu Tiezhu shouted, "Can we not add a yard?"
Xu Erlang also ran over and begged: "Fourth Uncle, Fourth Uncle, they changed it to 10,000 taels, you can't abandon me..."
Xu Li turned his head and looked at them: "Don't even mention 10,000 taels, I don't want even 1 tael!"
Xu Tiezhu's family was stunned.
Xu Li got on his horse, reined in his horse, turned around and looked at them and said, "By the way, let me tell you one thing, I am not a eunuch!
Your Majesty rescued me when I entered the palace. I will marry right away and have as many sons as I want. So, I have no shortage of sons!"
He rode away on his horse.
