As the saying goes, it is easy to borrow money, but it is difficult to repay money. When borrowing money, you will curse it. It is so sincere. When you have to pay back the money, your face will be turned around immediately. It is normal to act like a scoundrel.
The town is not big, but there are all things you should have, an inn, restaurant, teahouse, etc., but there is no shortage of them.
In this town, there is a well-known kind person, Wang Guifa, the owner of the grain store. Wang Guifa runs the only grain store in the town, has a good business and has made a lot of money.
This person was a beggar when he was young, so he knew the feeling of not having enough food. Later, by chance, he gradually became rich, but this person did not forget his roots and treated poor families very friendly.
If someone's family can't afford to eat, come to credit some rice and flour, or even come to ask for some, Wang Guifa will not hesitate.
So after a while, Wang Shanren's name was passed on.
After breakfast, Wang Guifa, who was staring at the restaurant, heard the movement and looked out, and saw an old man, holding a pocket and hesitating, walked in.
The old man looked in. Wang Guifa didn't stand up, but the shopkeeper walked over and asked: Are you buying food?
The old man hesitated for a moment, felt a little embarrassed, and after a long time he said: Are you Wang Shanren?
The shopkeeper is also an old man, and then he looked at Wang Guifa, the boss of the boss. Wang Guifa then stood up, walked over, and asked: Are you looking for me?
The old man looked at him, suddenly knelt down and said: Shanren Wang! I really have no money. My son went out to work and came back soon. Can you tell me how many kilograms of grain can I give me credit? After my son comes back, I will definitely return the money to you as soon as possible.
Wang Guifa saw him, looked up and down at the old man, nodded, and said: It’s easy to say! Brother, get up first.
As he said that, he helped the old man up and then said to the shopkeeper: Ask the guy to weigh a bucket of rice.
Hearing this, the old man waved his hand and said: I can’t use it! Can't use it! My son can come back in half a month, just give me a few liters of rice.
This dou of rice is quite a lot. Even adults have to eat it for a month or two. Of course, poor people will not eat rice every meal, but make porridge, or use wild vegetables, etc., which is enough to eat it for a long time.
If the old man eats it himself, it is possible for three or four months.
The old man looked at the rice with excitement and said: You write an IOU, I will draw a plagiarism!
Wang Guifa did not refuse after hearing this. After all, there is so much rice, but a lot of money. Even if he is kind, he can't do this, so he wrote an IOU and the old man wrote a note.
The old man left, the shopkeeper held the IOU and said with a wry smile: I said, "Boss, I'll remember it for you. Including this money, the money you lent out is probably 100 taels."
Wang Guifa was also stunned when he heard this, but then he smiled and said: It’s okay! They are all poor people.
The shopkeeper heard this and smiled bitterly: It may not be! People! It’s hard to say, I think half of it is here to take advantage of you.
Wang Guifa was not angry when he heard this, but just smiled.
At this moment, a person passed by outside the door, walked in, and smiled and said: Is Shanren Wang doing good again?
When Wang Guifa saw the visitor, he smiled, pointed at the visitor, and said with a smile: "You are the one who is urging you to die!" Why did you run away from me?
The man is a man in his thirties, his eyes are dripping around, and he looks like a shrewd person. Moreover, there is a scar on his face, which adds to sarcasm and fierceness.
The man smiled and said: I haven’t had any business recently. I just walk around and see that you have so much on credit. Come and ask if I need to do it?
Wang Guifa waved his hand and said: No! I can't use you.
The two of them talked about it, and this urged Li to leave.
The shopkeeper looked at the back of this person and said: This person is not simple, it is said that he has never missed debt collection.
Wang Guifa nodded after hearing this, and said: This is just that this person has some methods, which are really cruel and a little bit over.
The shopkeeper heard that he didn't answer, but just shook his head.
Time flickered, and it was half a month. Late that night, a fire suddenly broke out here in the grain store. Not only the grain store, but also the surrounding houses were burning.
Countless people in the middle of the night began to put out the fire, and they worked until the early morning before the fire was put out.
Wang Guifa and the shopkeeper's friend kept putting out the fire. When the flames were extinguished, Wang Guifa walked into his grain store and became stupid.
The building structure is just a residual, and almost all of it is burnt out. In the retail market, it is easy to say. Wang Guifa and everyone rushed directly to the warehouse, which had too much food here.
So when I arrived at the warehouse, Wang Guifa collapsed to the ground, and all the food was burned out.
Almost all of Wang Guifa’s assets are in this grain store. Although the family still has some money, it is much less than the grain store.
The shopkeeper was also stunned when he saw it, with tears in his eyes and said: It’s all gone! Hundreds of taels of silver were burned out!
Wang Guifa was depressed. He spent several days to rebuild the grain store, operate and resupply, all of which required money, but after all, the money at home was not enough.
The shopkeeper came to him and saw that he was depressed, and couldn't help but say: Boss! Now that you are facing difficulties, I think you should take back those debts? I think only in this way can I overcome this difficulty.
Wang Guifa shook his head directly after hearing this, but after the shopkeeper persuaded him, Wang Guifa finally compromised. After all, he was already in a dilemma, so it would be reasonable to take care of himself first.
But how to get the account is a problem. In the end, I thought of the death-seeking Li. If this person comes forward, things will go quite smoothly.
The shopkeeper came forward and found the death-hunting Li. After explaining the matter, he handed over the record details to this person.
This urged Li to do this specifically. After agreeing to get a commission, he began to ask for it one by one according to the list.
Not to mention, it was just three days, and he actually recovered fifty taels of silver. Even Wang Guifa was shocked. It seemed that there was hope of restoring the grain store.
This urging Li to take the list, crossed a few people, saw the name of the last old man, and showed joy, and said intimately: A dou of rice, this is a lot of money. I went back and found him by the way!
This urging Li chased several people and walked back. He passed by the old man's house, but was stunned. The door was locked and there was no one.
asked the people in the same village, but they didn't know it. In desperation, Li had to give up.
But every time I pass by, I will come over to see it. There was no one in three consecutive days. This made Li urging his life very angry. This old man probably did it on purpose.
This cannot be a problem for him, he is a person who claims to be a death-hunting person.
was almost done, and Li didn't go anywhere during the day. He waited until the night, and went to the old man's house.
The town is pitch black, and the village is even more so.
But when he walked to the old man's courtyard, he was stunned. The dark courtyard actually lit up the lights. Although it was extremely weak, it was extremely conspicuous in this darkness.
Li Xiao was immediately happy and hurried to check it out.
The gate was still locked, but there was movement in the courtyard, and Li was ordered to go to the courtyard wall and look inside.
The houses in the village have adobe walls, which are not high, just like half a person tall. Looking inside, Li was stunned.
The old man was holding a bowl and muttering the words: Son! Dad cooked for you, you can eat it!
Go back and forth, just like this, there was a light shaking in the house. With the light, Li urged him to see that the old man had his feet off the ground. The so-called movement was just the old man's murmur.
urging Li to death saw it clearly, and a cold air rushed up along his back, and cold sweat came out. He turned around quietly, and he didn't want the money anymore, so he ran away.
The next day, he urged Li to go to Wang Guifa's house and gave the other money. He hesitated and said: That old man Li's money, I'll forget it!
Wang Guifa was a little puzzled and asked: What's wrong?
urged Li Chi hesitated for a moment and said: I think this person is probably gone. If you don’t believe me, go and have a look!
When Wang Guifa heard this, he was stunned and recalled that the old man didn’t seem to be dying of illness.
Wang Guifa called the shopkeeper and called a famous guy to go there to confirm the matter.
As a result, the guy came back and looked ugly. After asking, he found out that the old man was indeed dead, and he had been dead for many days. His son just came back.
Wang Guifa sighed and could only give up.
The story is over!
