"Who are you?" Mu Qingyang stood up and looked at the people standing outside the front hall. Looking at the ferocious appearance, he was definitely not a good person. He was a businessman, so he had seen a lot.
After seeing these scenes, he narrowed his eyes, and he had some impressions of the person taking the lead.
Liu Erzi from Chengnan Street, a well-known local gangster, later went to an underground bank. It is said that he is now prosperous, but he has never had any contact with the people in the underground bank. How could these people come to Mu Mansion in such an open manner?
While Mu Qingyang was thinking, Liu Erzi turned around and dragged a person from behind and threw him to the ground: "Master Mu, take a look, is this person the son of your Mu family?"
"Hong Jing." Mrs. Lin was the first to rush over and help her son up nervously. When she saw her son's face was covered with blue nose and swollen eyes, she immediately pointed angrily at Liu Erzi and cursed: "Where did you come from?
If you dare to hurt my son, I won't let you go."
Liu Erzi sneered twice, not paying attention to Lin's curse at all. Underground bankers like them are not frightened. People like Lin have seen a lot.
"Master Mu is walking around outside, so he should know the rules of our bank. Our boss, for the sake of Master Mu, didn't do anything cruel. He just gave the noble master a small lesson." Liu Erzi did not say this.
That's right, Mr. Li, the banker he was following, was also a well-known figure in Linyang City. He was involved in both black and white circles. Not to mention a merchant family like Mu Qingyang, even the government had to give him some face.
"I wonder where Quan Zi offended Master Li?" Mu Qingyang is also a person who knows how to measure. Liu Erzi is a person who can't catch his eyes at all, but Master Li behind him is a very important figure, and he always has to give up.
of.
"Is this your master's handwriting?" Liu Erzi winked at his subordinates, and someone immediately sent a written note to Mu Qingyang's hand.
This is... Mu Qingyang frowned and looked at the document in his hand suspiciously. His face darkened with just one glance. The veins on his forehead popped out. He raised his foot and gave Hongjing a kick, who was finally helped up by Lin. This
The kick hit hard, and Hongjing covered his knee in pain, but did not dare to speak.
"What are you doing, master? Hong Jing is the master's eldest son. He has been with the master since he was a child. Even if he did something wrong, the master can just say a few words. Why bother to do anything with the child?" Mrs. Lin supported her son distressedly.
He was angry in his heart, but on his face he didn't dare not give Mu Qingyang face, so he could only laugh along with her.
"Evil son!" Mu Qingyang threw the note in his hand at Lin's feet and glared at her fiercely, "Look at the good son you taught. He has all the food, drink, piao and gambling. He can go to the brothel if he has nothing to do.
I won’t talk about him while drinking wine, but now he has learned how to gamble, and even dares to borrow money from underground banks when he loses, even if he borrows 50,000 taels!"
This was Young Master Hongjing's business. Others sitting at the table did not dare to speak. However, Yu Shiyao saw that Mu Qingyang was really angry, so she stepped forward to comfort him. Her gentle voice was like spring water, but it was a miraculous comfort.
After calming down Mu Qingyang's anger, she said with a faint smile: "The young master is at the age where he can have fun. Even if he is teased and loses money, it is understandable. The young master should not be angry with Hong Jing.
Already."
Mrs. Lin held Hong Jing's hand and paused for a moment. There was an unreasonable panic in her heart. This Yu Shiyao extinguished the master's anger with just a few words. If she was really allowed to be the master of the family in the future, there would be no mother and son.
status.
"Master Mu, our Master Li is also a reasonable person. Originally, Master Mu didn't want to reveal his identity, so Master Li asked others to take action. When he found out that it was the young master of Mu Mansion, he immediately asked me to send him here, and also asked Mu by the way.
Master, these fifty thousand taels of silver..." Liu Erzi smiled, full of hints.
"Zhong, go to the accountant and pay fifty thousand taels of silver." Mu Qingyang's face was expressionless. Fortunately, it was fifty thousand taels of silver and the government could still get it. If there were more, he might have to go to the shop to get it.
During these days, the war in the north had a great impact on Mu Mansion's business. Although Luo Shao withdrew his business very quickly, he still lost a lot of money and lost a lot of money. Some of the people sent to the shop in the north had no time to withdraw.
They also gave money to subsidize their families.
With this coming and going, Mu Qingyang has less and less funds at his disposal. Now he can only hope to end the war as soon as possible so that the business of Mu Mansion can be restored, otherwise it will become more and more in losses.
.
"As expected of Mr. Mu, who is rich and wealthy. By the way, there is a written receipt here. Please take a look at it, Mr. Mu." Liu Erzi winked, and his subordinate took out another written receipt. Liu Erzi then said slowly, "This written receipt can be
It wasn't our bank, it was established by your young master and the gambling house. The boss of Guihe gambling house has been an acquaintance of our Lord Li for eight years. Hearing that I was coming to Mu Mansion to collect a debt, he asked me to bring this note with me.
"
Liu Erzi is Master Li's subordinate, so he naturally wants to collect his boss's debt first, and then take out other people's documents, otherwise Master Mu won't be able to take it out, and he will be the one who gets scolded when he goes back.
"This..." If the previous fifty thousand taels of silver only made Mu Qingyang kick his useless son hard, then this piece of paper really made him so angry that he just wanted to strangle his troublemaking son to death.
"Mu's Qinghe Shop is next to Guihe Gambling House. If Mr. Mu sees the receipt clearly, he can just tell me when to close the shop." Liu Erzi crossed his arms and watched Mu Qingyang's face turned angry with cold eyes.
white.
Qinghefang is not a profitable part of Mu's industry, and they only sell some worthless jade ornaments, but the value of Qinghefang lies in this shop. Mu Qingyang spent a lot of effort to buy this shop with excellent Feng Shui.
.
"Qinghefang?" Mrs. Lin murmured, her feet softened slightly, and her face turned pale. She also knew about Qinghefang. The master spent one hundred thousand taels of silver to buy the three-story shop.
.
"It's okay if Master Mu doesn't acknowledge this document, then I will take Master Mu away." As Liu Erzi sneered, one of his men had already stepped forward to arrest Hong Jing.
Hong Jing was frightened by the beating, and now he hurriedly stepped back, grabbing his father and begging for mercy: "Dad, just give the shop to them. Our Mu family has a big business, do you still care about this shop? Dad, don't you?
Do you want me to be beaten to death by them?"
"Evil son." Mu Qingyang was already furious, but this made him even more furious. He kicked Hong Jing hard again, and he screamed in pain.
Mrs. Lin couldn't care about anything at this time. No matter how valuable Qinghefang was, it was still not as valuable as her son, who was her lifeblood.
"Master, please save Hongjing. He has been pampered since he was a child. He has never suffered like this. Master, please give Qinghefang to them." Mrs. Lin knelt at Mu Qingyang's feet and begged bitterly.
Mrs. Lin saw that Mu Qingyang frowned but never let go. Her son was caught by those vicious people again. At this moment, she really had no way to ask for help. She could only kneel at Yu Shiyao's feet and finally spoke.
Begging her: "Madam, Hongjing is still a child. It's because I didn't teach him well. I will definitely teach him well in the future. Please be merciful to Madam, please be merciful to me and save Hongjing."
Yu Shiyao frowned slightly, as if she had a troubled look on her face. She was just a newly married mistress. At this moment, the old lady was still standing aside and had not spoken. She didn't know if she would be offended by her rash plea.
The face of the old lady.
"Please, please..." Mrs. Lin was just a mother who was worried about her son at this time. She was not as cruel as usual. She knew that the master had lost his patience with her, so she looked at Mrs. Xia pleadingly,
It's just that there was a child between her and Xia. Xia just looked at her indifferently and didn't speak.
Finally, Yu Shiyao couldn't help but whispered a few words in Mu Qingyang's ear. Although his expression was ugly, he nodded solemnly, and then said to the housekeeper who had not yet left, "Ah Zhong, give me the land deed to Qinghefang."
Bring it."
Then he simply handed over the title deed with money in one hand and the written document in the other. Liu Erzi laughed a few times and left proudly. The gang of thugs behind him also walked away. It seemed that these thugs were just pretending.
A few debtors would really fight for their lives with these desperate gangsters.
A strange silence flowed in the front hall, and no one spoke.
"Come here, arrest this traitor and take him to Beiyuan." Mu Qingyang slammed the table and suddenly got angry.
Hong Jing, who originally thought the sky would clear up after the rain, was so frightened that his face turned pale. Beiyuan was the most desolate place in Mu Mansion, and he did not want to go there.
"Sir, the eldest young master is of a noble body, but he was injured again. I'm afraid he will be sent to Beiyuan now..." Yu Shiyao frowned, with a hint of disapproval in her eyes.
But Mu Qingyang had made up his mind. It was useless to plead for mercy. With a wave of his hand, Zi Qian led two guards to fight the young master away. Hong Jing yelled and cursed, which made Mu Qingyang turn blue.
His face was even more ugly.
"Huh, these are the children you taught. One got pregnant out of wedlock and had a miscarriage before she had hair. The other is uneducated and proficient in eating, drinking, gambling, Ruyu, Ruyu, you really disappoint me.
"Mu Qingyang's eyes when she looked at Lin were finally covered with a layer of gloom, revealing disappointment.
Lin was really frightened this time. The master has always been soft-hearted, but he is also a stubborn person. If he is really disappointed with anyone, he will be doomed.
"Master, I..." Lin's face turned pale and she was about to excuse herself.
"Ru Yu is a businesswoman after all. She doesn't know how to teach children. Hong Jing is the eldest son of our Mu family. Otherwise, why should he be adopted by Shi Yao?" the old lady said in a deep voice.
Ms. Lin was completely heartbroken. It seemed like they were really going to refrigerate her this time?
The hands in her sleeves were tightly grasped. She had been planning for so long and was about to regain power. Was she going to just watch the opportunity slip away like this?
