Chapter 151 Gao Yucheng pays three hundred taels
Seeing that Liu Yingyue refused to sign the contract and only asked Gao Yucheng for her sister, Gao Yucheng actually captured Liu Yingyue's sister.

Mr. Qian and his wife became anxious.

They all asked about the whereabouts of Gao Yucheng and Liu Huaiyue.

Gao Yucheng was about to cry, "I really don't know. I don't know where she went."

Liu Yingyue sneered, "Gao Yucheng, my sister is missing, tell me how to compensate her."

Qian wanted to resolve the matter quickly, so he urged Gao Yucheng, "Yucheng, how about you pay some money to Lady Ying? She has worked very hard to find her sister."

Gao Yucheng really cried this time. He was almost dying of poverty, so where would he get the money to pay?

If he wasn't short of money, why would he tie up Liu Huaiyue and lure Liu Yingyue out to ask for money?

He didn't get the money from Liu Yingyue, but instead wanted to give money to Liu Yingyue.

What bad luck he has.

"Three hundred taels, not a penny less. If you dare to pay even a penny less, I will go to the government office and sue you for kidnapping my sister!" Liu Yingyue narrowed her eyes.

Qian Gao felt sorry for her nephew, "Madam Ying, three hundred taels is a bit too much?"

"Mrs. Qian, I don't want more. I have to give this money to my parents. My sister was lost by Gao Yucheng. My family has to arrange people to look for her. How can we hire people without money? God knows if these three hundred taels are enough? To be honest, my parents have a bad temper. If they knew that my sister was in trouble, they would not just ask you to pay the money. They would ask for Mr. Gao's legs or arms."

Madam Liu was well-known and was a well-known shrew.

Liu Lizheng is also a person who is unwilling to suffer any loss.

No one dares to mess with these two people.

Now that they have evidence, I'm afraid they won't let it go even if they find Liu Yingyue's sister.

It would be better to pay more money to calm them down first.

Thinking of this, Mr. Qian said, "Yucheng, three hundred taels is three hundred taels. A man should pay for what he has done wrong. Pay it quickly and decisively."

Mrs. Qian thought it was too much and wanted to bargain, but Liu Yingyue couldn't wait any longer, so she took the banknote and left.

Mr. Qian was anxious. If she left, wouldn’t the business be ruined?
The contract hasn't been signed yet!
The Qin family is rich now, and doing business with the Qin family in the future may be able to revive the Qian family's business.

Mr. Qian stopped Liu Yingyue and said, "Madam Ying, we are all acquaintances. You are Yucheng's sister-in-law, and I am Yucheng's uncle. We are relatives in a roundabout way. We can talk about it if there is anything."

"But Mr. Gao doesn't want to discuss it." Liu Yingyue glanced at Gao Yucheng.

"Zhen'er's mother? Please urge Yucheng!" Seeing that Gao Yucheng had a bitter face and didn't say anything, Mr. Qian urged Mrs. Qian again.

Mrs. Qian felt sorry for her nephew, but she felt even more sorry for the man who had recently lost money in business.

She gritted her teeth and decided to stand on her man's side, "Yucheng, just agree to it. Don't mess around next time."

One threat, two persuasions.

Besides, he couldn't beat Liu Yingyue, and his uncle was eager to do business with Liu Yingyue, so he wouldn't help him if he and Liu Yingyue really fought.

Gao Yucheng knew that if he didn't agree today, he would not be able to leave.

He could only grit his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll compensate you, but three hundred taels is a bit too much..."

"Three hundred taels, not a penny less." Liu Yingyue said coldly.

Gao Yucheng was so anxious that he scratched his head, "But I don't have so much money on hand right now."

"Then write an IOU, one for fifty taels and one for two hundred and fifty taels," said Liu Yingyue.

It was acceptable to write that he deserved a beating, so Gao Yucheng agreed.

At that moment, Liu Yingyue pushed him to the table and he wrote two IOUs with the pen he had used to write the contract.

Liu Yingyue put away the IOU for two hundred and fifty taels and the fifty-tael silver note, wrote her name and pressed her fingerprint on the contract for the cotton fabric, and then handed over the fifty-tael IOU.

"Mr. Qian, I have signed the contract. As for the deposit, please give me this IOU for fifty taels. This is equivalent to silver, isn't it?" Mr. Qian's eyes widened and he said no, isn't that the same as saying that IOUs are not acceptable?

That's fine, he still needs to find Gao Yucheng to collect the debt.

Gao Yucheng still owed him more than one hundred taels of silver. Who knew when he could get the money back in these fifty-two days?

Mr. Qian frowned in embarrassment.

Liu Yingyue deliberately asked, "Mr. Qian, what's the problem with this IOU?"

"Oh, no problem, no problem." For the sake of next business, Mr. Qian gritted his teeth and had to accept it.

Liu Yingyue nodded, "Okay, let's follow the agreement. I'll come back to ask Mr. Gao Qian about the cotton fabric in a month. I'll be back today."

"Don't worry, Madam Ying, we guarantee to deliver the goods on time." said Mr. Qian.

Seeing that it was getting dark outside, Mr. Qian ordered his steward to harness the carriage and send Liu Yingyue back.

Gao Yucheng shamelessly wanted to get on the carriage.

Liu Yingyue refused, "It's inconvenient for a man and a woman to be alone. Please find another carriage to go home, Mr. Gao."

She signaled the driver to just drive and not worry about anything else, and left Gao Yucheng behind.

Gao Yucheng had no choice but to ask Qian Yuanwai to borrow a horse, "Uncle..."

Qian Yuanwai shook the IOU and snorted coldly, "When will you pay me back? And the 120 taels I borrowed before, pay them back together!"

Gao Yucheng said with a sad face, "Uncle, I will definitely pay you back when I have money."

"I think you might as well sell the lantern shop in the county town to me to pay off your debt." Mr. Qian flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly.

Gao Yucheng sighed, "My eldest brother has the property deed of the shop, so I can't sell it."

"That's your business! You have one month to pay back the money you owe me! Otherwise, I'll come to your house to collect the debt!"

Gao Yucheng borrowed money from everywhere, and was afraid of being scolded by his family, so he begged everyone not to tell his family.

When Qian Yuanwai was about to go to Gao's house to collect the money, he was so frightened that he hurriedly said, "Uncle, don't come to my house, I will definitely pay it back."

Qian Gao was also annoyed with this nephew, but he was her nephew from her mother's side after all, so she could only persuade the man to stop scolding and then scold Gao Yucheng a few more times.

The matter was settled.

Gao Yucheng nodded dejectedly.

Mr. Qian glanced at him and asked the farmhand to bring him the donkey, but not the horse.

Worried that he would sell the horse.

His farm is full of good horses, worth fifty taels, but this donkey is only worth twenty taels.

Gao Yucheng didn't dare to bargain. He hung his head and rode his donkey home.
-
Qin's manor.

It was a dark night and all the lights in the houses in the village were off. Only the back room near the gate where the gatekeeper lived had a light on.

The gatekeeper wanted to close the gate of the manor, but Qin Yiran stood in front of the gate with his hands hanging down, looking at the road ahead.

"Mr. Dalang, it's almost three o'clock in the morning. Who are you waiting for? No one will come this late."

"Changfu, you go to sleep. I'll stand for a while." Qin Yiran said, his eyes always looking at the road ahead.

On a moonless night, you can't see anything on the road.

Changfu frowned, "Then... I'll go back to the house first. If you need anything, call me immediately."

Qin Yiran waved his hand to indicate that he understood.

Changfu shook his head. Why is Dalangjun acting so weird tonight?
