"You have to admit it when you lose. This is the rule of the gambling house. Master Gu doesn't want everyone in the gambling house to know that you are a person who can't afford to lose. Master Gu's family has a big business and he won't even lose twenty-five thousand taels." You can’t even get the money out, can you?”
"If you can't get it out, according to the rules of the gambling house, one finger should be cut off. Which finger does Master Gu want to cut off?"
Li Yang asked here,
"How could it happen? Pay the IOU first and I'll give you the money right away." Master Gu said boldly.
"I don't trust others very much. I remember that Master Gu seemed to have occupied a cargo terminal. I wanted to do business there, so I thought it would be better for Master Gu to let the Gu family retreat and give the cargo terminal to I."
Hearing this, Master Gu was a little defensive at first, but when he thought about it, it was not his own property. If it could be worth twenty-five thousand taels of silver, wouldn't it be a profit?
"no problem."
"There is no basis for what you say. We need evidence. Let's establish a written evidence." As he said that, Li Yang brought out paper and pen, as if he had prepared it in advance.
In full view of everyone, Master Gu signed and stamped his signature.
"Everyone here is a witness. If Master Gu occupies the cargo terminal again in the future, he will bring shame to the Gu Mansion."
Having said this, people from the gambling house responded one after another.
"I remember that the cargo terminal seems to belong to Master Chen's house. Now Master Gu has paid off the debt. This matter will be troublesome."
"No, it should be said that there is a good show."
Master Gu patted his chest and replied, "That's right, I, Master Gu, keep my word. Just don't regret it when the time comes."
"Of course I don't regret it." Li Yang replied proudly.
"Well, brother, don't forget, didn't you promise me that you would teach me the skills?" Master Gu said flatteringly.
"I can teach you. I think the porcelain shop on Lingshui Street is good. Give me the painting and I will teach you."
"That's not what you said just now." Master Gu felt as if he had been deceived.
Li Yang didn't take it seriously in the first place. He was trying to treat others in their own way, "Young Master Gu doesn't want to learn, it doesn't matter."
"Wait, fifty shares."
Hearing this, all the onlookers were surprised.
Everyone knows that Master Gu is a prodigal son. He spends all his time idle, either going to brothels or gambling houses, and he doesn't pretend to be serious in his mind.
"Did I hear you right? That is one of the most popular shops in the Gu family. Is he really going to give it to someone else?"
"Young Master Gu's house also doesn't lack this one."
"That's fifty shares, you can make a lot of money."
"What I want is everything. Master Gu needs to think clearly. I will use the cargo terminal today. Remember to Tengqing."
Then, Li Yang led people away from here.
"Will he really agree to give us the porcelain shop?" Beirong asked in disbelief.
"Not necessarily. I'm giving him a difficult problem. It doesn't matter whether he gives it or not." Li Yang just wants to go back to the cargo terminal.
Li Yang stayed in the inn for a few days.
Master Chen came to thank me personally.
"You really have a way. The Gu family has left the dock. I don't even know what method you used."
Then, Master Chen gave the gift, "It's just to show a little care."
"This is nothing. To ensure future safety, I need to stay at the dock for a few days."
"no problem."
As soon as Li Yang arrived at the dock, Master Gu sent someone.
"Master Chen sent someone to deceive my son and made him owe 20,500 taels of silver. You want to use this to pay off the debt. You are really a treacherous villain."
"God is watching what you do. This cargo terminal belongs to my Chen family. Why did your Gu family send people here?"
"You lost a shipload of my goods, which is ten million taels of silver. It doesn't matter if I charge you a cargo terminal." Master Gu said anxiously.
At this time, Li Yang stood up and said: "According to my investigation, the cargo was empty. Once it was transported to a certain place, it gave the illusion of being hijacked. You had already planned it by blaming Mr. Chen. The cargo terminal The boom is indeed booming. If you have tried to acquire the company many times without success, you can only think of this method. We are just repeating the same old tricks."
"Nonsense, that's a real thing."
"Is there any evidence?"
"If Master Chen can't come up with it, I have evidence."
Then, Hao Liu brought a lady, who said tremblingly: "Master Chen came to my place and made a false account, saying that even if the invoice was issued, he would pay half of the money, so I made a false account, and I don’t know what Mr. Gu’s intention is.”
"It was the shopkeeper that Mr. Chen found at the beginning, and she also opened that shipment. The shopkeeper's shop is the most famous in Wushui Town, so what the shopkeeper says has weight. What else do you have to say? ?"
Master Gu was speechless for a moment, and he led the people away in anger.
"Master Gu has raised such a child and can be so loving. I really envy me. By the way, Master Gu has given me the porcelain shop on Lingshui Street, but I don't want it because I'm not like Master Gu. If you lie to others, Master Gu should cherish the lost porcelain shop."
"What……"
Hearing this, his teeth itched with hatred.
At home.
Young Master Gu just couldn't sit still and kept thinking about that skill. "If you have that skill, you won't have to worry about a few thousand taels of silver. If it doesn't work, I gave him the porcelain shop. When I win back the money from the gambling shop, I will Bought the entire shop on Lingshui Street."
Thinking of this, he laughed and said, "That's great."
"Go get the paper and pen. I want to sign and seal it."
At this time, several servants were kneeling on the ground.
"That's not okay. If you do this, young master, Master Gu will definitely be angry."
"I can't care less, just wait until I win it back."
"Go quickly."
At this moment, Mr. Gu walked in and slapped him.
A blood-red mark fell on his face, which immediately stunned him.
He looked at his father, his eyes red, "Father actually hit me."
"I'll hit you lightly."
"You actually want to give him the china shop."
Fortunately, he came back in time. He didn't believe it at first, but then he heard what he said, and then he believed that what Li Yang said was true.
Then, he picked up a stick and hit him on the leg.
With just a crunch, his leg was broken.
"Today I will teach you a lesson. If you go to a brothel or a gambling house in the future, I will break your other leg."
Having said this, he threw the stick aside and left angrily.
…
By helping Mr. Chen retake the cargo terminal, Li Yang has completed his mission.
"You are really a smart person, but you are also polite. You are also a square and upright person. No wonder Elder Qing likes you so much." Master Chen said with a smile.
