Seeing her son being so sensible, Mrs. Zhao was very relieved: If only her son had been so sensible earlier, it would be great if those two bull-nosed men died in the hands of bandits, if only...

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in this world, and there are not so many ifs.

"Okay, then mother will give you a day, if not, then follow mother's way." Mrs. Zhao gave in.

"Okay, mother, you have a good rest, my son will do it right away."

Zhao Yun rushed out the door in a hurry.

Zhao Yun's first stop was to go back to Lizhang Academy to find Wendao. He didn't know that Wendao had already asked for leave for several days in a row.

He couldn't find anyone in the academy, so he ran to No. 77 Baihua Lane, where he saw Wen Dao.

In fact, Wen Dao didn't want to see Zhao Yun at all. His gratitude to the department store once was like a river rushing to the sea, gone forever.

Now, it's replaced by resentment.If possible, Wen Dao very much hoped that they could also die.

Considering that he had a task ahead of him, he had to force himself to chat with Zhao Yun.

After hearing Zhao Yun's reason for coming, Wen Dao expressed "very sympathy" for their family's experience, and was "willing" to provide help within the scope of his ability.

He also suggested: "Master Wuwei is on the verge of anger, it is best not to touch his bad luck, so as not to add fuel to the flames."

"Gu Yuanzhi has a noble temperament and never likes to get involved in the affairs of the yamen. If you are looking for him, it is better to find the person in charge of this case. I heard that this matter is in charge of Mr. Sun. I can introduce him for you. Go and beg. He might not be able to help."

Zhao Yun was very surprised. He was not very friendly to Wen Dao before, but he didn't expect him to be so friendly to him. It's a friend in adversity.

He shook Wen Dao's hand and expressed his gratitude.

Wen Dao endured his nausea and brought Zhao Yun to Master Sun.

Master Sun had already prepared for it. Not only did he accept the gift from Zhao Yun, but he also practiced Tai Chi with Zhao Yun for a long time.

"Forget it, I'll try my best to mediate for you, but money must be prepared, the more the better. Come back tomorrow to hear the news."

Zhao Yun hurriedly went back to report the situation to Mrs. Zhao. Mrs. Zhao was very surprised: she said she gave Zhao Yun a day, but she just didn't want to dampen her son's enthusiasm, but she didn't expect him to really have some hope.

"Master Sun?" Mrs. Zhao has never dealt with Master Sun, and the people she has been with the most are Madam Zhixian and Li Xiancheng.

Now, these two people are obviously ignoring her, so following the path of others may not be a solution.

Mrs. Zhao agreed, and immediately started to raise money. Although she didn't know how much she wanted, Master Sun was right, the more the better, and it was right to raise money as much as possible.

After another anxious day, Mrs. Zhao finally received a piece of good news and a piece of bad news.The good news is that there is room for improvement, but the bad news is that the other party asked for 1 taels.

1 taels is not a small amount, even if it is a department store, it is impossible to get it all at once.

The county government has posted an announcement that the case of the Sanming Mountain gangsters will be formally heard in seven days, which means that he only has seven days to raise funds.

To be on the safe side, Mrs. Zhao still supported her sick body and went to see Mrs. Zhixian again. Of course, it is impossible for Mrs. Zhixian to see her.

Mrs. Zhao, who had been shut down, went to visit Li Xiancheng again, but Li Xiancheng met her, and told Mrs. Zhao clearly according to the magistrate's intention: the case of the Sanmingshan bandits was in charge of Mr. Sun, and suggested that she find Mr. Sun.

After going round and round, Mrs. Zhao finally came to Mr. Sun, who did not bother to repeat it again, meaning the same thing: because of the relationship between Wenxiang and his sister, Taoist Wuwei agreed to give in.

As long as you spend 1 taels of silver, you can stop the mouths of the Taoist brothers, and the department store's collusion with the Sanming Mountain gangsters will stop at Butler Bai.

If you can't get it out, then I'm sorry, how things will develop is out of our control.

When the matter developed to this point, no matter what, even if it was a waste of money, Mrs. Zhao had to raise this money for her life.

Yesterday, she managed to raise 3000 taels for a whole day. Even if all the cash flows from the department store and the Zhao family were scoured, the maximum would be 5000 taels.

Although the Zhao family had several real estate properties in Chengnan County, they couldn't be sold at a good price if they were sold urgently, and it would also cause others to have doubts about the department store and the Zhao family, which would be disadvantageous.

It's better to sell the shops in Fucheng, firstly, the shops in Fucheng are valuable, and secondly, because they are far away in Fucheng, even if there are some rumors, it will not affect the foundation of the department store.The worst thing is to return to Chengnan County and seek development slowly in the future.

Mrs. Zhao bought two shops in Fucheng after painstaking efforts. She originally wanted to show her strengths, but who knew that she had turned the boat on the "toothpaste", and now it was a life-and-death juncture. No matter how heartbroken she was, she had to sell it.

In the final analysis, his own life was the most important thing. Since the dead man in his family could not be counted on, it would be better to use this money to buy his own life than keeping him to marry and fill the house.

Where there is life, there is hope.Mrs. Zhao immediately asked Lao Wang to take his young master Zhao Yun to Fucheng to sell the real estate, and then secretly got the dental man Lao Zheng to sell the property in Wenjia Village.

The Zhao family's property in Wenjia Village is not much, only 70 mu, but they are all rich fields, and they can always be sold for [-] taels per mu in normal times.But Mrs. Zhao will get the cash within seven days and keep it secret, which is a bit difficult.

The only people who can come up with such a large amount of money at once are those big families, so no one is a fool, you have to understand it clearly, right?

Moreover, land property transactions always have to be signed and transferred, so it's hard to say whether people are willing to keep it secret.

In short, in such an urgent situation, Mrs. Zhao still made additional requests, so what good price can this field be sold for?
For the [-]% intermediary fee, Lao Zheng tried his best to contact several big households for the acquisition, but they were either suspicious or severely suppressed the price.

The reserve price given by Mrs. Zhao was 50 taels of silver per mu, and some unscrupulous people were only willing to pay 40 taels of silver per mu. His feet were broken and his mouth was lame. No one could negotiate smoothly.

Seeing that the business was about to fail, Lao Zheng was so anxious that a big blister grew on his mouth.

Four days later, not only Lao Zheng was anxious, but Mrs. Zhao was even more anxious. The shops in Fucheng only sold 3000 taels of silver, plus all the cash flow and 5000 taels of silver that could be found, the total was only 8000 taels. The difference is 2000 taels.

She could only lower the reserve price again and agree to sell it for 45 taels of silver per mu.

Even so, there was still no one who could take over the offer and meet Mrs. Zhao's requirements for a while.
