I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times

Three days have passed since the last time the prince of Zhao Guogong walked away in anger, and there has been no news about breaking off the engagement. Ling Chu was thinking about whether to go to Master Ning and ask if he had found out any information.

The red sleeves floated in through the wall.

Ling Chu glanced at him and warned, "Stay away. Since you are a puppet, you have to be conscious of being a puppet. Don't let your Yin Qi get onto a living person."

Hong Xiu was angry, but she was worried about Ling Chu's whip and didn't dare to float past it again. She could only lean against the wall in frustration.

Since she couldn't beat her, and she had to rely on Ling Chu to help her get revenge, Hongxiu didn't dare to show any anger.

Lingchu was satisfied to see her behave herself, "Tell me, what brought you here? Did you discover anything?"

"Miss Ling, Grandma Wang went home on vacation today. Her son Feng Laishun lost a bet again and owes a large sum of money to the gambling house. Feng Laishun is discussing with Grandma Wang to leave Beijing to avoid debt."

Hongxiu is worried that if Feng Laishun leaves the capital, she doesn’t know how long it will take to avenge her.

“How much money does Feng Laishun owe?”

"Before I died, he owed more than six thousand taels. Grandma Wang managed the warehouse in Zhao Guogong's mansion, stole some small items and sold them out of the mansion, and helped Feng Laishun pay off more than half of the debt.

 But Feng Laishun did not stop, taking the money given by his mother, he wanted to make a comeback. But the more he gambled, the more he lost. After my death, he owed more than eight thousand taels. "

“Which gambling house does he owe money to? Is it Changle House?”

 “That’s right.”

Lingchu guessed that it seemed that Grandma Wang had no money to help her son pay off his debts, so Feng Laishun wanted to leave Beijing to avoid debts.

How could Hu Batian let Feng Laishun leave the capital when he owed such a large sum of money to Changlefang.

 This is an opportunity.

Mother Wang must be in urgent need of money now. She might be able to use this opportunity to dig out some secrets from her mouth.

Although Ning Chuyi has promised to help her find the prince of Zhao Guogong, she can't look to him every time she encounters a problem.

 If you can solve things yourself, don't bother others.

Seeing Hong Xiu's anxious expression, Ling Chu put down the tea cup and stood up, "You go back and keep an eye on Grandma Wang and her son. I'll be there later."

Hong Xiu was overjoyed, responded, and immediately floated away through the wall.

 It seems that being a puppet also has the advantage of being a puppet. You can just float to where you want to go, and the speed is quite fast.

Ling Chu didn't waste any time and left the house with his two maids.

Grandma Wang’s husband and son neither work as servants in the Duke Zhao’s Mansion, so they do not live in the Duke Zhao’s Mansion, but rent a house outside.

Although Grandma Wang is on duty at Duke Zhao's mansion on weekdays, she will return to her own home during her breaks.

Most of the people living in Qinghe Lane are servants of some wealthy families nearby.

 Grandma Wang lives in this area.

I don’t know if Hu Batian went to Feng Laishun to collect his debt. If not, Ling Chu wouldn’t mind having someone send him a letter.

 What Ling Chu didn't expect was that as soon as she entered Grandma Wang's house, she saw Hu Batian.

 When Hu Batian saw her, he immediately started to feel a headache.

"Miss Ling, are you here to collect debts?" What kind of luck did he have to meet this ancestor again. Could it be that all the money was taken away by her this time, and he could only return empty-handed?

Ling Chu glanced at Hu Batian's bitter face and shook his head with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm not here to collect debts."

Although she didn't like the bully, she was quite happy to see him at Grandma Wang's house this time.

Hu Batian was relieved when he heard that she was not here to collect debts.

Grandma Wang said with a dark face, "Miss Ling, are you in the wrong place?"

“You’re right, I did some fortune telling today and there seems to be something wrong with your family. Let me take a look.”

Grandma Wang was worried about her son, and she was even more angry after hearing this, "There is nothing wrong with my family. I have things to do here and I don't have time to entertain you. Miss Ling, please come back."

Ling Chu seemed to not understand what she was saying to chase people away, and said with a familiar face, "It's okay, don't pay attention to me. Just go about your business, I will just watch from the side, and I will never disturb you."

Grandma Wang was furious, and Hu Batian was already impatient, "Stop whining and whining, take out the money quickly, I don't have time to listen to your nonsense."

Feng Laishun nodded and bowed to please him, "Mr. Hu, I really don't have any money at home. Please be patient for a few days. When I can raise the money, I will definitely pay it back to you."

“It’s this rhetoric again, my ears are ringing with noise. Feng Laishun, I have given you half a year. No matter what happens today, you must get the money.”

 Don't think he doesn't know, Feng Laishun is planning to sneak out of Beijing today and wants to default on his debt.

"Mr. Hu, please do a good job and give me a little more tolerance. Don't worry, my mother will not ignore me. She will definitely find a way to help me raise money."

Feng Laishun was extremely frustrated. He didn't expect Hu Batian to come to his door so soon. If his mother hadn't been so stubborn and unwilling to give him money, he would have left the capital early today.

 Hu Batian had already found out the identity of Grandma Wang and knew that she was a servant of the Duke of Zhao.

“Ms. Wang, if you want a son, please take out the money quickly, otherwise don’t blame me for being rude.”

At this moment, Grandma Wang ignored Ling Chu and said with a smile, "Master Hu, please be tolerant for a little longer, my family really doesn't have that much money.

　　Although my family Laishun owes more than 6,000 taels, half of it has been repaid, and more than 3,000 taels are still owed. Sir, please be tolerant for a while, and when I raise the money, I will definitely return it to you. "

Wang Yan laughed on his face, and in his heart, he had begun to think about the warehouses of Zhao Guo's government. What kind of humble small things can be stolen and changed out of the house.

I didn’t see Feng Laishun’s expression change when she heard her mention more than three thousand taels.

Hu Batian glanced at Grandma Wang coldly, "Feng Laishun owes not just more than three thousand taels, but 10,780 taels."

As soon as these words were spoken, Grandma Wang’s eyes immediately went dark.

Soon he screamed again, "What, more than ten thousand taels? This... this is impossible!"

Hu Batian sneered and took a stack of IOUs from the follower behind him. "It's clearly written in black and white. I didn't lie to you."

 When Grandma Wang saw the pile of IOUs, she felt like the sky was falling.

Angry, he rushed towards Feng Laishun, raising his hands and crying at the same time, "You prodigal son, didn't you say you stopped gambling? Why do you owe so much money again? Are you crazy? How can you pay back so much money..."

Feng Laishun became angry after being hit by her several times. He pushed her impatiently and said, "Mom, it's only ten thousand taels. The Duke of Zhao's house is so rich. If you slip through your fingers, you'll find more than this amount of money. You can get more money from the warehouse. If you take out a few more things and exchange them for silver, you can pay off the money."
