Dark Fairy

Chapter 20

Liu Xu had talked about this, so Bailang naturally couldn't back down.

After receiving the mission, he continued to swim the streets with Zhou Dong for another day. Afterwards, Bai Lang found a tavern and treated Zhou Dong to a drink. He bid farewell to the slightly drunk Zhou Dong, and then Bai Lang returned home under the moonlight.

"elder brother."

As soon as I walked in, I didn't expect that the two little ones at home had not yet gone to bed, and each looked uneasy, as if they had made a mistake and didn't know what to say.Even Bai Yuankai, who had always been fearless, had red eyes as if he was about to cry.

"Hey, what's the matter? Maotou, you're not going to cry, are you? Hahaha." Bailang sat down and got himself a glass of water. He didn't choose soft words, but joked lightly as the starting point.

"Brother, I broke someone, and I have to pay a lot of money!" Although Bai Yuankai held back his tears to not let his elder brother underestimate him, his choked voice still showed how regretful and complicated he felt at this moment.

For money, the whole family relies on the eldest brother alone to make ends meet.Bai Yuankai would rather get another beating just to quickly keep the family secret and put more burden on his eldest brother.

It's not just a joke to be poor and humble.Bai Yuankai and his brother already had a lot of experience with this sentence at such a young age.

"Brother, the families of the five students who were beaten by Maotou sent a letter to the school today and passed it on to our parents. Look." Bai Yan handed a letter to Bailang.

The content of the letter is very simple, summed up in two words: lose money!
It's just that looking at it, the other party seems to be opening its mouth like a lion.Maotou made it clear, and the old master Wang Yanbin also said that the students who were injured were all skin traumas. Just for this, it is a bit too outrageous to dare to ask for one gold for soup and medicine in a letter.Let's not talk about whether the poor Bai family can get this huge amount of compensation, even if it can be easily paid out, they will definitely not be taken advantage of.

In addition, three days have passed since Bai Yuankai beat the person, and it took three days to send the compensation letter, which is very interesting.If what was expected was true, the other party deliberately created a blockage after fully ascertaining some information.

Bai Lang secretly laughed in his heart, knowing that the Bai family would not give if they could not give, but they still chose to open their mouths like a lion. What does it mean to deliberately make trouble or expand trouble?Are you going to beat him, a street wanderer who is not cared about?Still think that with a little money, you can ignore the existence of the knife shop?
never mind.Bailang didn't feel the need to think deeply about this matter either.The path of the knife shop has nothing to do with Dazhangzhuang.As a member of the knife shop, he doesn't need to consider Da Zhang Zhuang's plans.If you think too much, your hands will be tied up, and you can just keep your head and clean up the situation in front of you.

"Okay, don't worry. This letter is not really asking for money. You don't have to worry about it. Brother will naturally have a way to deal with them. And Maotou, remember what brother told you that night, don't think about it. Make yourself uncomfortable. Trust me, okay?"

"Yeah! Brother, I believe you!"

"Okay, you two go to bed first." Bailang watched his younger brother and sister return to the house with a smile on his face.At the same time, I also feel that my younger brothers and sisters have grown a lot mentally, and they are no longer like children.

"Is it time to move to a bigger place? It's not appropriate to have two little ones crowded into one room."

Bailang was making plans.Now I have a lot more money in my hands than before, and when the task of this promotion is completed, the stable income will be several times higher than it is now.At that time, it should be able to change to a more spacious place.

As for the letter in his hand, Bai Lang smiled, folded it and put it back in the envelope.He plans to keep this thing until he meets the people in Dazhangzhuang in the future and asks them what they think in person.

For the time being, let's hang on first, and see what Da Zhangzhuang can do with a street wanderer.

The next day, Bailang went out early in the morning with the mission he had received from the affairs hall, and found the target of the mission in Dingkou Lane in Nancheng.A man named Zeng Fei.

Zeng Fei is 37 years old, a businessman.The elder sister is Zeng Yi, the second wife of the City Lord's Mansion.

Previously, Zeng Fei alone controlled more than [-]% of the entire timber and charcoal business in Yongchuan City. He was considered a wealthy businessman in Yongchuan City.

But later, for some unknown reason, the city lord's palace stopped supporting Zeng Fei, causing Zeng Fei's business to struggle.At the most difficult time, Zeng Fei wanted to save himself desperately, so he had no choice but to find Tang Zuo Dao's sword shop and borrow a huge sum of fifteen gold to make ends meet.And used many real estate deeds and properties in his name as collateral.

The money that can be borrowed is water money, and water money is like a canal, once the opening is opened, it will flow rushing, and there is no end to it.It's okay if you are sure of it, it can indeed save an emergency.But if there is a slight mistake, or the estimate is slightly different from the actual situation, then the water money will flood you until you are drowned.

Zeng Fei was the latter. He thought he could make a comeback, but in reality he could only watch the water money slowly sinking up his neck, and finally raised his head, leaving only two nostrils to breathe.This is because he has the sister of the city lord's second wife.Otherwise, there would be an unnamed corpse with a different head in the mass grave outside Yongchuan City.

Now [-]% of Zeng Fei's property has been sold off.Dealing with arrears, payment for goods, labor and so on.It is not easy to get a piece of the pie when this kind of big business falls apart. Even the knife shop has not been able to return the principal, and only [-]% of the principal has been collected, let alone the thick pile of interest owed.If Zeng Fei keeps making profits, he will not be able to make money in the next life, let alone Zeng Fei.

Now the big business owner only has a small dilapidated house to live in.

Of course, no matter how depressed he was, Zeng Fei still had no worries about food and drink, nor was he worried about his safety.Who told my sister to be the second wife of the City Lord's Mansion?

Knocking on the door, a lazy and hoarse voice came from inside.

"Who is it?"

"The knife shop, collect the bill."

".If I don't have money to pay you back, don't come here again."

Bailang was stunned by the answer from the door.Ordinarily, even street hobgoblins and rascals are cautious and dare not offend at all when they hear the name of the knife shop.Even those rich and wealthy who wear gold and silver must face up to every contact with the sword hall.When did the knife restaurant come to the door to collect debts and drive people away without even opening the door?The word "arrogant" is not enough to describe this.

No wonder it has been regarded as a difficult promotion task and has been preserved to this day.Bailang had a psychological expectation.

"I was sent here because you had no money to pay back. I will help you find a way to pay back the money. You should know that only if you pay back the money can you start over in this life, otherwise you can only be a worm for the rest of your life , so you can be willing?"

"."

There was silence in the door. After a moment, it opened with a click, and a slovenly man with hair as messy as a chicken coop and a beard that hadn't been trimmed for an unknown period of time. He was wearing a torn cotton jacket and exuding a sour smell. Appeared in front of Bai Lang.
