"Mrs. Zhen, what's the problem? I won't just listen to one side of the story. If there is any discrepancy with the truth, please tell me now." Jushou said calmly, without seeming to take sides.
Zhang smiled and did not refute, and said directly, "These land deeds and IOUs are all issued by my Zhen family. Although I am very interested in knowing how these IOUs and land deeds came from, this is not the place to talk about it.
Please just ask Mr. Ju to convert it directly into silver coins."
It is obvious that Zhang directly admitted that his family did not have enough money, allowed the government to buy back the money at a discount, and then used the money from the buyback to pay off the debt.
After all, this kind of overdue debt does not violate criminal law. In the Han Dynasty, it was still classified as miscellaneous law. According to the law, as long as the debt is paid off within a given time after the official sentence is announced, the person will be whipped three times at most.
Because of this, in cases like this where debts are overdue, the repayment method and time limit determined by the presiding officer are the key. Depending on the repayment results, the final punishment can be said to be very different. Insolvent people may even be punished.
Demoted to slavery.
As a wife, Mrs. Zhang will not be punished with whipping at all, nor will she be demoted to slavery due to insolvency, so the final punishment will be cancelled. As long as Jushou lengthens the given time, or even delays it a little longer.
If we delay this matter any longer, the Zhen family will be able to get all the stores without spending a penny.
But it's obvious that Mrs. Zhang doesn't want to do this. It would be too embarrassing for the Zhen family. The Zhen family can't afford so much money, but they still have the goods. As long as the goods are paid off at a fair price, the Zhen family will be able to pay off the debt at best this time.
It's just a personal loss, there isn't much actual damage, of course this refers to the actual discounted price.
When the Han Dynasty government forcibly paid off debts, actual discounts were rare in the Han Dynasty. The official discounts were more severe than the seven-out discounts offered by private loans, and the thirty-fold discount was considered a face-saving measure, but for people like the Zhen family, who were well-known in Jizhou
It is not impossible for a wealthy family to carry out discounts in the local market. To be precise, if they cannot even do this, how can they be considered a century-old wealthy family?
Jushou sighed and stood up, "How about Mi Zizhong, please be merciful and let the Zhen family go?"
As soon as Jushou said this, those who were listening and knew the current situation began to whisper. After all, this was somewhat different from the unified script they regarded as unified. They had already unified their words and abandoned the Zhen family, and now you Jushou came out and said this
Well, if things take a turn for the better, wouldn’t it be troublesome in the future?
"Except for Zhu's unwillingness, the Mi family and the Zhen family have no grudges. They even had some business dealings before this. As for now, the Mi family has no choice but to go down one road. Please forgive me, Mr. Ju." Mi Zhu
With a wry smile on his face, he stood up and handed over his hands to Ju Shou. At this point, as long as he insisted on not letting go, Ju Shou could only pronounce the sentence according to the miscellaneous laws, and he could only use the discount price commonly used by the government. The Zhen family had been forced into a corner.
"I also know that it's not easy for the Mi family. Can we discuss it and give the Zhen family a favor? Jizhou will certainly not forget it after this incident." Jushou continued to mediate, implying that it doesn't matter whether you let go of Mi Zhu's matter this time, Jizhou.
I will never forget it. If you let me go, Jizhou will remember your kindness. If you don't let go, I, Jizhou, will one day avenge you for this. Remember it.
Mi Zhu smiled bitterly on his face, but he didn't care in his heart. Can you, Lord Ju, determine the outcome of Yuan Benchu and Liu Xuande? If you could see through the world, do you still need to be here? My entire wealth is greater than Liu Xuande's, and your entire wealth is greater than Yuan Benchu's.
, are you telling me how good Yuan Benchu is now?
"Mr. Ju, with Jizhou's ability, he probably already knows who is behind me. I'm just their pawn. So what if I don't want to fight with the Zhen family?" Mi Zhu lowered her body and said helplessly.
.
Jushou sighed, "Are the people behind you really unwilling to reconcile with Jizhou? There is no direct conflict between the two of us."
Jushou persisted in showing how much Jizhou protected the Zhen family in front of the Zhang family, so that he could make plans for the future.
"I don't dare to take authority." Mi Zhu continued to maintain a bitter look on his face, feeling contempt for Ju Shou in his heart. Knowing what was going on, Mi Zhu was now 90% sure that Ju Shou, this bastard, just wanted to take her out.
"Alas, Mrs. Zhen!" Jushou turned his head and saluted Mrs. Zhang.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Ju, for your protection. Please calculate the actual items. The things my Zhen family bought may not be worth so much in calculation." Mrs. Zhang stared at Ju Shou and said, the actual conversion is equivalent to selling it to the government, and the Zhen family even
There is still a little profit, "I think the Mi family leader must have lost a lot this time."
"That's not true. Everything our Mi family sells in Jizhou makes a little profit. Although it's not much, it can be regarded as a tower of strength." Mi Zhu smiled and said, he was sure that the government would never think of the Zhen family this time.
With such a practical calculation, one discount is already the limit.
Soon the current wealth of the Zhen family was calculated. "Report to the Sheriff, the calculable assets of the Zhen family are contracted at 770 million! The difference is 1.1 billion!" Shu Zuo said with a shocked face, even if it is a 10% discount.
After calculation, the assets of the Zhen family were worth 770 million yuan. Immediately, the heads of all the families in Jizhou who were present looked at the Zhen family in shock. They all knew that the Zhen family was rich before, but no one had been bored with calculations before.
The assets of the Zhen family are not easy to calculate, so this time is an eye-opener!
If it weren't for a 10% discount, the Zhen family should have 7.7 billion yuan. This amount of money is equivalent to 40 million shi if converted into rice based on Jizhou's grain prices. This is no longer a simple wealthy family, but one that relies solely on the strength of the family.
It was enough to support the super rich of the princes. For the first time, the Hebei family felt the pressure. The nobility of blood could not resist the charm of money.
Jushu was a little trembling. Although he had known this data before, he felt himself shaking after it was announced in public. When he learned this data, Jushu felt that he completely understood why Chen Zichuan wanted the Zhen family, and Liu Xuande had no idea at all.
Stable, money and food are insufficient, swallowing up the Zhen family can basically lay a solid foundation!
One million Yellow Turbans is nothing. If the Zhen family raises all of them, their vitality will not be seriously damaged. What's more, there is Mi Zhu standing here. Mi Zhu, who is also known as one of the five wealthy businessmen, should have several billions of money.
Mi Zhu was also frightened. Although he and the Zhen family were among the top five wealthy businessmen, the Zhen family was too rich. He had scraped together about 2 billion yuan. The Zhen family's wealth was four times that of his. No wonder it was so much.
The Zhen family’s position as the number one wealthy businessman has never changed over the years!
The heads of the aristocratic families present looked at Mi Zhu with greedy expressions. If you swallow up the Zhen family, your Mi family should become the number one wealthy businessman, and you are still a wealthy businessman without any background. Under the temptation of money, no one here will mind.
Give the Mi family a clan origin and don’t mind letting Mi Zhu enter his circle!
Mi Zhu could only smile bitterly at the greedy looks from the aristocratic families present. He now doubted the assets of Chen Liuwei and Hedong Wei, who had always been at odds with the Zhen family. The two Wei families, who had been fighting against the Zhen family for hundreds of years, probably had
It far exceeds his own assets. In terms of love, the Mi family is the only one of the five wealthy businessmen in the world. It is a family, a family! Mi Zhu has once again made up his mind that his Mi family will become such a wealthy family!
Ps: The wealth of these two families is no joke. There is basically no expansion. The money of the Mi family can be calculated. Historically, Mi Zhen’s dowry when she got married was close to 2 billion yuan. Should we say that these are real rich people? Of course.
According to the time, the Mi family at that time should have approximately 2.5 billion in assets.
