Originally, he thought that Bie Ye was only in love with her and only treated her alone, but now he suddenly learned that as long as he really cares about someone, he will treat that person well without asking for anything in return.

She is no exception.

Gu Rao felt a little uncomfortable.

Suddenly remembered another thing.

"The last time you saw that coffin at Carpenter Tan's house, the reason why you were so moved and wanted to buy the coffin early to prepare it was because of your father's incident?"

Use an affirmative tone.

Bie Ye said, "Be prepared."

Gu Rao rolled his eyes.

"We will all live a long life, don't think about messy things, as long as I am in the house for a day, before the age of 60, no coffin is allowed in the house!"

Passing by every day and seeing the coffin, not to mention she felt terrified, if she had children in the future, the children would be scared when they saw it.

Bie Ye looked a little regretful.

"Listen to you."

What he is embarrassed to say is that when he was a child, he almost sold himself to bury his father, which made him have an obsession since he was a child, that is, buy yourself a coffin before you are 30 years old.

After having a wife, I have another goal of buying both my own and his wife's coffins before the age of 30.

It now appears that this goal cannot be achieved.

but.

Rao'er was right, they would live to be a hundred years old, and it's not impossible for the coffin to be decades late.

Gu Rao was satisfied with this.

"I was joking with you just now, who wants to take you as a mortgage?"

"You are willing, but I am not willing. You are mine now, and you can't mortgage yourself to anyone in the future!"

The tone is a bit domineering.

Bie Ye didn't feel disgusted, but felt a sense of peace in his heart.

"it is good."

Only then did Gu Rao get down to business.

"Don't we still have three acres of land? We bought it for nearly 20 taels of silver, how much can we mortgage it to the bank?"

Bieye shook his head.

"do not know."

Gu Rao got up and said, "Let's go ask now."

Bie Ye asked, "Aren't you tired?"

Gu Rao said, "Now I'm not tired anymore. It's important to do business. Tomorrow I have to open the door to do business. Hurry up to make money. I don't have time to go to the bank. While there is still time today, let's do everything that needs to be done."

"By the way, when did you wake up at noon?"

Bie Ye said truthfully, "Didn't sleep."

Gu Rao said quickly, "Then you stay at home and rest early, I can go alone, this kind of thing doesn't need two people."

Without giving Bie Ye a chance to refuse, he turned around and walked downstairs.

Bie Ye followed behind.

Gu Rao turned her head and said, "You are not made of iron, you have walked for a day today, stay at home well, I am not a waste, I can't even do this well."

"Wait for my good news at home!"

After speaking, he disappeared at the door.
-
Gu Rao trotted for a certain distance, looked back several times, but decided that Bie Ye hadn't followed, and then walked towards the bank in peace.

I've passed by several times before, but it's the first time I went in.

"Boss, what do you need to prepare for borrowing money?"

At this time, there was only one shopkeeper in the shop, standing behind the counter with his head lowered, he was seriously counting on his abacus, when he heard a woman's voice, he looked up, and was amazed when he saw Gu Rao's appearance.

"How much do you want to borrow?"

Gu Rao stretched out five fingers.

Zhu Xingwang said, "Ten taels of silver, go and sit next to me first, and I'll tell you how to borrow it after I've settled the accounts here."

Gu Rao said, "It's best to be able to borrow 100 taels of silver, the more the better."

Zhu Xingwang was very surprised when he heard the words, and his head, which was originally lowered to look at the abacus and account books, was raised again.

"Do you know the rules of borrowing money from the bank?"

Gu Rao shook his head.

"Know a little, but not too detailed, can you tell me about it?"

Zhu Xingwang said, "The bank's interest on borrowing money for a year is double the principal. Are you sure you want to borrow 100 taels of silver?"

Gu Rao said, "I won't borrow it for a year, but only for two months. Can you give me less interest?"

Zhu Xingwang seemed to hear some joke.

"You come here to borrow money, which means you are short of the 100 taels. Are you sure you can earn enough 100 taels of silver and two months' interest within two months?"

Gu Rao smiled and said, "Whether I earn it or not is up to me. The shopkeeper just says whether to lend it to me or not."

For this kind of unscrupulous businessman, she has nothing to say to him, as long as they each get what they need, after this difficulty is over, there should be no more intersections in the future.

For borrowing money, one time is enough.

If it weren't for the restaurant this time, she really likes it very much, and she is very optimistic about the development prospects of doing business on that land, so she wouldn't come to borrow usury.

Doubling the interest rate is even more outrageous than borrowing usury!
If it wasn't for the fact that there was only such a bank in the town, she would doubt the legitimacy of this bank!

Zhu Xingwang said, "Come to the bank to borrow money. To borrow 100 taels of silver, at least 50 taels worth of property must be mortgaged. Have you brought it?"

Gu Rao took out the title deed.

"Do you see these lines?"

Zhu Xingwang took a look, then shook his head.

"Your three acres of land are worth 20 taels of silver at most, and I can lend you 40 taels of silver at most. The short-term interest will be a little higher than the long-term interest rate, and it will increase by [-]%."

"Are you sure you only need to borrow for two months?"

The corner of Gu Rao's mouth twitched fiercely.

Is this really a bank, not a place to grab money?
too exaggerated!

Who would dare to borrow money from them?

"According to what you mean, I asked you to borrow 40 taels of silver, and I will return you 88 taels of silver in two months?"

Zhu Xingwang looked surprised.

"You figured it out so soon?"

"Wait a minute, let me do the math."

After all, he has been a shopkeeper for so many years, and he has to deal with money every day. His arithmetic ability is better than ordinary people, and he can calculate it without fiddle with the abacus a few times.

"It is indeed 88 taels of silver."

The look in Gu Rao's eyes is different.

There is admiration and appreciation, but more regret, unfortunately, if it is a man, he can be hired as an accountant.

Gu Rao, "..."

Very good, they were willing to lend her some money even though they could steal it.

But the price of borrowing money is too high.

He succeeded in persuading her, who was passionate and wished she would do anything to buy the restaurant three days later, to quit, and she was not as eager to get the restaurant as before.

Sometimes people really have to do what they can.

"I don't want to borrow it, so leave."

Zhu Xingwang took his time.

"The rules in the bank can't be broken. If a special case is made for you alone, other people will follow suit after they know about it. Therefore, the interest must not be reduced for you, but if you borrow it for a year, I can borrow it." I will give you 100 taels of silver, and give you one more month to repay the money."

Gu Rao shook his head.

"I'm sorry."

After coming out of the bank, Gu Rao was a little frustrated. When he came here, he still held some hope, but unexpectedly, he got frustrated.

"Master, why are you here?"

"To save money?"

Gu Rao looked behind him, and it was the apprentice who was one round older than himself that was walking towards this side.

"Come to borrow money."

Gao Caitong was stunned.

"The last time you sold jewelry, didn't you only get three hundred and five taels of silver? It was used up so quickly, and you still need to go to the bank to borrow money?"

"How much to borrow?"

"Why don't you come to me? I'm your apprentice after all. If you want to borrow money, as long as I can afford it, it's not like I won't lend it to you."
