Chapter 60 Forced purchase of cloves

Sun Datou shook the IOU in his hand and sneered.

Only six hundred taels of silver are worth three points of profit, and there are still six hundred taels of silver that are worth nine points of profit. We are a legal business, and we must evaluate before borrowing money. I know that it will not cost more than six hundred taels of silver to make your house small, so why? Maybe he lent that much money to Ding Chi.

However, Ding Chi was in urgent need of money, so he voluntarily borrowed another six hundred taels with nine cents of interest. Our boss is a charitable and chivalrous person, so we lent him another six hundred taels of silver in his own name.

Impossible! Ding Zhuang shouted with eyes wide open.

Sun Datou said, It's written in black and white, you can't deny it.

Ding Zhao, Xia Lizheng, and Ding Shan got up to read the deed again. Just now they only read the top deed, which was for three points of profit, while the next deed was for nine points of profit.

Ding Zhao nodded sadly and angrily to Ding Zhuang and said, There is also an IOU for nine cents of profit.

Ding Zhuang shook his body and spit out another mouthful of blood.

Dingshan hurried over and helped him sit down.

Ding Zhao was angry and had to admit defeat. He took out a pile of big money and broken silver and said, There are a total of thirty-four coins and four taels of broken silver here. We only have so much, and we have thirty-four taels of silver left. Please be accommodating to Manager Sun. , and borrow it for another three months at three points of interest.”

Sun Datou said, Our boss is angry. He says that Ding is not trustworthy and doesn't want to lend you any more money. It's due today and you can't lose a penny. You have to give me all of it.

Ding Zhao's veins were bulging, but he still suppressed his anger and begged, Master, hold your hand high, intercede for us, and grant us some more time.

Sun Datou shook his head and said, My boss has already told me that today is the deadline and I will never deal with your Ding family again.

Ding Zhuang bulged his eyes and said, Even if we are beaten to death, there are only so many at the moment. We don't need money, but we need a life. Just take my old life.

Sun Datou scolded, Your life is not worth that much money. It's not impossible to use people to pay for it, so let's use children to pay for it.

Ding Zhao said angrily, My family does not sell children. We have paid back more than a thousand taels of silver, how can we still rely on you to pay a few dozen taels?

Sun Datou snorted coldly, If you don't default on the debt, you should pay the money back. If you can't pay back the money, you can use your children to pay for it. Huh, you still dare to cheat with our Jiaozi Shop. You are really tired of life.

He clasped his fists to the people in the room and said, It is only natural to pay back debts. Please bear witness, Lao Ding's family can afford to pay back the money but they don't, so it's no wonder that we are not to blame.

It often happens that children or wives are used to cover debts. The Ding family also has three children that are worth some money, so it seems reasonable for people to ask their children to pay off debts.

But everyone present knew that Ding Zhuang’s precious granddaughter and grandson were determined not to betray their children.

Ancestor Ding Er said tremblingly, I have three children at home. Even if I sell them all, I still can't pay back the money. Please be kind and give me a few more days.

Xia Lizheng also said, You can't kill anyone, right? Please go back and intercede with the owner, let them make a profit of three points and extend the loan for some time.

Sun Datou's face softened and he said, I'll give you a clear path. I heard that your girl is pretty good, and she will be a talented person once she's been trained. Maybe you can rely on her to be popular in the future. Our boss said, The little girl pays fifty taels of silver, plus the yard of your house. In this way, you can still have some money left, have a house to live in, and your family has a way to live, right? The fact that the little doll can be sold for so much money is because of the kindness of our boss.

The owner also said that buying this little girl was equivalent to gambling on stones. If she is as good as Ding Hongbi said, and she can be trained into a top-notch thin horse or a famous prostitute in the future, she might be able to sell for thousands of taels of silver.

Ding Zhuang jumped up and his eyes widened. She yelled loudly, I'll fuck your grandma. If you dare to touch Xiangxiang's finger, I'll chop you off.

Ding Zhao also said loudly, I don't sell incense at home.

Sun Datou said with a cold face, What, you want to refuse to pay back the debt?

The thugs in the room began to gear up, as if they were going to rob someone.

Xia Li hurriedly stood up, clasped his fists and said, Masters, please be patient and allow us to advise shopkeeper Ding.

Xia Lizheng, Er Zuzu and others whispered to persuade Ding Zhuang and his son.

The average three-year-old girl can be sold for five or six taels of silver at most. They are willing to pay fifty taels plus the yard. It's you who make the profit.

Jiaozipu will not treat her badly if she spends so much money to buy Xiangxiang. Maybe she will have a better life than at your house.

Sooner or later, the girl's film belongs to someone else. Why don't you want to part with it? If you sell her, you will have a good life and you will also find a good way out for her.

It's worth trading a granddaughter for a family's peace and a yard. We can't afford to offend Jiaozipu. This result is the best.

Ding Zhuang and Ding Zhao also figured out why the people at Jiaozipu had to wait until so late to collect the bill. This cuts off their ability to go to the county town to borrow money or ask for help. The purpose is to force them into desperation and have to sell incense. If they don't sell it, they won't pay it back if they have money. It's justifiable for them to rob people.

Jiaozipu will not do bad business. If you are willing to spend so much money to buy Xiangxiang, you must send it to an inappropriate place.

Ding Zhuang's eyes turned red and he shouted, If you are willing to sell your children, that is your business. I, Ding Zhuang, will never sell my granddaughter.

Sun Datou sneered and said, Are you going to default on your debt? Everyone here, you can't blame us, it's because they don't pay back the money. He waved his hand again, The little boy is in the east chamber, go in and catch people to pay off debts.

Ding Er Zuzu and everyone were unhappy when Ding Zhuang yelled at them, and they also complained in their hearts that he couldn't see the situation clearly and was worse than a woman at the critical moment. No matter how much he felt sorry for that girl, he couldn't bring the whole family into it.

Wait!

Ding Zhuang and Ding Zhao jumped up and roared at the same time.

Ding Zhao said, It's the end of Shenshi now, and there are still a few hours until tomorrow. Let us raise money.

Sun Datou sat down and said, It seems that you are not at the end of your rope yet. Okay, I'll give you one more hour. If you can't borrow the money, don't blame us for being rude.

Except for Uncle Guo's family in the county town, no one can afford so much money.

Ding Zhao still looked at the people in the room pleadingly, let's add up to a little.

Except for Dingshan, everyone else turned their attention elsewhere.

As long as the girl is sold, the family can be saved, but Ding Zhuang and his son are unwilling.

Dingshan sweated and said, I'll borrow another six guans, but that's all I have. We still have to live, and Qinzi still needs to take medicine.

Uncle Xia also hesitated and said, My family can still borrow three hundred coins.

Ding Shuan said, My family will borrow another two hundred coins.

Ding Zhao bowed to them and said, I'm going to Yuan Xia's wife's house.

As long as Xia Yuanwai is willing to help, he can come up with so much money. Yesterday, Ding Zhuang shamelessly went to see Yuan Xia, but he didn't even meet him.

At this time, everything was at the end of the rope, so Ding Zhao had no choice but to shamelessly ask for it again.

In the east chamber, the three Zhangs had been pressing against the window to listen to what was going on outside.

Ding Xiang was shocked when she heard that people from Jiaozi Pu wanted to buy her forcibly.
