Lang Kanghu knew Qu Fang's character, so he quickly stepped forward to smooth things over and rescued Lang Chen from Qu Fang's hands.

"Xiao Qu, let's talk nicely, don't talk so bloody all the time."

"How can I talk nicely? Lang Chen told me that he could make money by trading Bupleurum, and he had a way, but he didn't sell a pound of Bupleurum after collecting so much."

"Hurry up and write me an IOU, don't nag me here, if you annoy me, I'll chop off one of your fingers now."

Qu Fang's voice was loud, and the onlookers finally understood that Lang Chen didn't have a penny, and he borrowed money to collect Bupleurum.

Isn't this just pretending to be a big shot?

The onlookers were furious. The current situation was obviously a dead end, and they were all tricked by Lang Chen.

Some people were quick-witted and ran to find Meng Jianguo.

The village secretary is here, maybe there is room for resolution.

If they continue to waste time like this, the bupleurum they dug will probably be wasted.

It's so hard to dig bupleurum in the middle of summer. Even if they deliver three or two kilograms, they are reluctant to throw it away.

"Brother Qu, please give me a few days. You can see the situation of my family. I can't borrow money at all. I will go out and run around in the next few days to find a way to sell the bupleurum."

Lang Chen didn't dare to confront Qu Fang. He had a powerful relative in the town. If he offended Qu Fang, he would be doomed.

"Do you think I'm a three-year-old child? I ran all over the county with you in the middle of the day. Did you sell one or two bupleurums?"

"Don't say useless things to me. Write an IOU quickly. It's only three days. One more day won't do."

Lang Kanghu also kept saying nice things on the side. Qu Fang lost his patience. With a "bang", a dagger fell on the wooden table in front of Lang Chen.

With this sound, the hall suddenly became silent.

"Is it not okay for me to write it?"

Lang Chen took out a pen and paper, and wrote an IOU to Qu Fang in a panic.

Qu Fang glanced at the IOU and found nothing wrong, so he pulled out the dagger.

"Don't play any tricks on me, kid. I don't have the patience to play with you."

After saying that, Qu Fang and his men swaggered out of Lang Chen's house. As soon as he walked to the door, he ran into Meng Jianguo head-on.

Qu Fang was very famous in Muping Town, and Meng Jianguo had heard some of his stories.

Meng Jianguo scolded Lang Chen in his heart. "Did you get kicked in the head by a donkey? You actually went to provoke Qu Fang, this evil star."

"The village party secretary is here."

"Uncle Jianguo, please judge for everyone. Lang Chen wants to cheat everyone of their hard-earned money. "

Meng Jianguo was already on his way here, and had heard everything about Lang Chen.

When he saw Lang Chen, he didn't waste any words, and let Lang Chen explain the whole story himself.

"Lang Chen, you are really confused."

Meng Jianguo wanted to slap Lang Chen in the face. He had the guts to make money, but not the brains to make money.

"Uncle Jianguo, I was forced to do this. You also know about Liu Dazhu's affairs, which made me borrow a lot of money from relatives and friends."

"If I just work in the fields, I will never be able to pay back the money in my life. "

Meng Haisheng, who was holding Momo and watching the fun outside, snorted coldly when he heard Lang Chen say this.

Lang Chen didn't have the brains to think of such a crooked idea. He suspected that Lang Chen must have got some inspiration from Meng Changxi.

Thinking of this, Meng Haisheng raised his eyebrows slightly. Meng Changxi might have been in contact with Meng Changyue frequently.

However, the communication was not very developed at that time. How did the two contact each other?

Or he could follow Meng Changxi some other day.

Meng Jianguo scolded Lang Chen, and the village The villagers kept giving advice and trying to solve the problem.

But after discussing it over and over again, they still couldn't come up with a solution.

Meng Jianguo definitely couldn't help Lang Chen buy the Bupleurum.

Lang Chen couldn't give the money to the villagers.

The villagers didn't want Bupleurum, they just wanted money.

This was a deadlock that couldn't be untied at all.

Meng Jianguo, who was exhausted by the quarrel, looked up outside the yard and saw Meng Haisheng holding Momo to join in the fun.

"Haisheng, Haisheng, come here."

Meng Jianguo called Meng Haisheng loudly to enter the main hall.

Meng Haisheng thought it was finally his turn.

Today Meng Haisheng didn't just come to join in the fun, he came to pick up the bargain.

"Uncle, are you looking for me? "

Meng Haisheng held Momo in his arms and sat on the stool next to Meng Jianguo.

"Haisheng, you are good at selling Bupleurum. Give Lang Chen some ideas on how to solve this problem."

"A few days ago, Lang Chen brought people to blackmail me. You asked me to give him some ideas. Isn't this just slapping yourself in the face?"

Meng Haisheng looked at Lang Chen with a fake smile.

Lang Chen was so angry that he clenched his fists on his legs.He stretched out his hand again, and repeated it several times before he suppressed his anger.

"Brother Haisheng, since we grew up together, please give me an idea. I promise that from now on, I will never make trouble again."

"Here, I have an idea."

Meng Haisheng stopped talking halfway through, almost making everyone present anxious to death.

"Brother Haisheng, tell me if you have any good ideas."

"It's okay to tell you. I have something to ask you, but it's hard to tell with so many people here."

When Lang Chen heard that Meng Haisheng had a solution, his eyes lit up immediately.

"Brother, come to the west room and talk."

The two went to the west room together and closed the door. Meng Haisheng didn't beat around the bush with Lang Chen, and asked him directly if it was Meng Changxi who gave him the idea to collect Chaihu.

Lang Chen was still entangled for a moment at first, but when he thought that he would owe more than 2,000 yuan in foreign debt if he was not careful, his entanglement disappeared.

"Yes."

Lang Chen told Meng Haisheng everything about how he went to Meng Changxi to ask for money.

"You are such a fool."

Meng Changxi used Lang Chen as a gun for a hundred yuan, and now Lang Chen is in trouble, he can't find Meng Changxi for anything.

After all, Meng Changxi didn't ask him to collect Bupleurum.

"Brother, I won't dare to do it again in the future. Please be kind and help me come up with an idea to deal with Bupleurum."

"Let's go out and talk."

Meng Haisheng gave Lang Chen an idea in front of everyone.

"If Lang Chen is willing, I can take all of Lang Chen's Bupleurum for 50 cents a pound."

As soon as Meng Haisheng finished speaking, Lang Kanghu was unwilling.

"Meng Haisheng, are you going too far? We bought Bupleurum for one dollar, and you're offering me fifty cents. Isn't that taking advantage of the situation?"

"I won't force you to sell it if you don't want to. Today, I'm asking for your Bupleurum for Uncle Jianguo's sake."

Meng Haisheng's voice was not loud, but it made everyone present understand that it was not Meng Haisheng who begged Lang Chen to sell Bupleurum.

Lang Kanghu's face turned red as he was blocked by Meng Haisheng.

If he didn't sell Bupleurum to Meng Haisheng today, he would definitely lose it.

But he was unwilling to sell it for fifty cents, because the price was too cheap.

Lang Kanghu looked at Meng Jianguo with pleading eyes, hoping that Meng Jianguo could help him talk.

As a result, Meng Jianguo pretended not to understand Lang Kanghu's meaning and kept sitting there smoking a pipe.

"Okay, Brother Haisheng, I'll sell this Bupleurum. You decide where I can unload it for you."

"My yard is too empty now. You can unload it at my grandfather's house in front of me."

As he spoke, Meng Haisheng looked for Uncle Meng in the crowd.

Uncle Meng naturally supported Meng Haisheng, and he didn't want the villagers' money to go down the drain.
