Chapter 291 Borrowing money

Xiao Qian walked for about half an hour, and Guan Sheng pushed the door open and said, "Mr. Feng, my family is plagued by official duties, and I can't get through for the moment. Please wait patiently here."

"It's okay, it's important to do it." Feng Yichen said.

Guan Sheng took the words and left.

Feng Yichen waited patiently. He knew that Xiao Qian's so-called official business must have been entangled by the adults who came to put pressure on him. Maybe Xiao Qian could not withstand the pressure and would withdraw the ban today.

However, an hour passed, but Xiao Qian still did not come back. Two hours passed, but there was still no one.

Feng Yichen couldn't wait any longer, so he opened the door and went out, but saw several constables guarding the door. When he saw him coming out, he was kind-hearted: "My master told me to ask Mr. Feng to wait here."

But my hand was pressed on the handle of the knife. I would be in a strong position if you dare to go out.

Feng Yichen had no choice but to return to the living room.

I was uneasy. Could it be that Xiao Qian wanted to trap him here?

In the tea room on Tongyuan Building, Lin Yanyan and Yang Jujun were drinking tea.

"Yan Yan, Xiao Qian sent a Xinlong Money House, and the capital was in chaos and people were in panic. I heard that many people went to the government office to cause trouble. If they were not sure what to do, they would have to participate in him tomorrow." Yang Jujun said.

Lin Yanyan smiled slightly: "He has his own sense of doing things."

"Is this called being sensible? Xinlong Money House is the largest money house in the capital. More than half of the people in the capital store have money in Xinlong Money House. If you say you can investigate the case, you don't need to open a money house!"

"He wants to seal his own seal."

"Forget it, whatever he does seems to be right in your opinion. I just worry that he can't handle the pressure that comes one after another." Yang Jujun said angrily.

Lin Yanyan smiled and said nothing. Most people couldn't handle it, but this was what the emperor wanted to do, and the emperor only took the pressure.

"However, is the arson case really related to Xinlong Money House?"

"I don't know very well, it must be related. Why don't you ask Lu Zhaonan."

Yang Yuejun muttered, "Ask him? You have to see him before you can ask!"

Lin Yanyan held back his laughter: "If you want to see him, how dare he not come?"

A suspicious blush appeared on Yang Fengjun's face: "He is not me, why should I see him, he would come to see me?"

"Oh... Then I'll ask you for another day."

"What are you asking?"

"Ask him who you are!" Lin Yanyan joked.

Yang Jujun's face turned redder, and he picked up a five-flavor peanut on the plate and threw it over: "Let you find me happy."

Lin Yanyanren hit his peanut and rolled to the ground, laughing and said, "I haven't had anything to be happy recently, just make me happy!"

Yang Jujun made a gesture to get up and leave.

"Okay OK, okay, I'm not happy to see you. I'm talking about serious matters. Is there any news from Brother Yang?"

Yang Jujun said: "I also want to ask you if there is any news here."

"Jing Yuan sent a message before leaving Yangzhou. The first batch of 150,000 shi of rice and grain has been shipped, and there should be 200,000 to 300,000 shi in the future. In addition to the relief from the imperial court, there are 500,000 and 600,000 shi. If all these grains can be reached into the hands of the people of the two lakes, the crisis will be resolved."

"Just let those big families smash their grains into their hands and get moldy and rotten. These bad-hearted people should be struck by lightning."

"They hoarded grain for moldy things, and they didn't give it to the people if they were moldy, for the sake of the fields in the hands of the people."

"It's so annoying, why are they like this?" Yang Fengjun really couldn't figure out how there would be such an unscrupulous official and unscrupulous big family in this world.

"We stay in the capital for many years, and we all see many evil things under the feet of the emperor. The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and there will only be more evil deeds. In the end, the people suffer." Lin Yanyan sighed.

"Forget it, if you don't talk about this, it's annoying to say it. By the way, Qianyao said that everyone will gather again before the New Year, she will do it. See when you have time and spend your time together."

"I'm free at any time, it's not that I have to do with the same origin building."

"Then I'll tell her and let her decide on her own."

Yang Jujun sat for a while and went back first.

Lin Yanyan looked out the window, but saw Wang Yiren wandering on the street, as if he was hesitating whether to come in.

"Fenghua, go and invite Miss Wang to come up and say I've seen her."

Wang Yiren left when she looked at the Yang family's carriage, which showed that Lin Yanyan was in the store, but she was really embarrassed to go in and beg Lin Yanyan.

While struggling, Feng Hua walked towards her with a smile.

Wang Yiren wanted to pretend that she didn't see it anymore, and the two of them had already met each other.

"Miss Wang, I've come here, why are you standing here? Do you have to ask me for you?"

"I……"

"What do I do? My lady saw you and asked me to invite you." Feng Hua pulled Wang Yiren away without any explanation.

Lin Yanyan had already changed into a pot of lilac tea. When he saw Wang Yiren coming in, he poured it for her.

"Yiren, are you asking me for trouble?" Lin Yanyan asked straight to the point.

Anyway, she knew that Wang Yiren would not come to her for tea and chat.

Wang Yiren pursed her lips and said, "It's something. I ordered a batch of medicinal materials and agreed to pay for the goods today, but my money is all in Xinlong Money House."

The small courtyard of her family is not very safe, so when she and Ke'er have money, they will be in Xinlong Money House. They need to use it before getting it. Who knew that when they went to withdraw money today, they found that Xinlong Money House was sealed off by the government.

She had already gone to Xu Wei, but Xu Wei's salary was meager and she only took out more than ten taels, which was far from enough. After thinking about it, she could only come to Lin Yanyan, but borrowing money... It was really the first time she encountered, and it was really hard to say.

"Many medicinal materials in the pharmacy have bottomed out. If they can't be reused, they will not be able to open tomorrow..."

“How many are missing?”

"One thousand two hundred taels."

"Fenghua, go and tell Mr. Liu that he will pay 1,300 taels of silver notes."

Wang Yiren was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Lin Yanyan would give her an extra 100 taels.

"One thousand two hundred taels are enough."

"Xinlong Money House is probably going to be sealed for a while. If you can't withdraw the money for the time being, you still have to live. Anyway, 1,200 taels are borrowed, and 100 taels are borrowed."

"Then...thank you, I'll write a IOU, and I'll pay you back immediately when the money from the bank is withdrawn."

Lin Yanyan let Wang Yiren write an IOU, but he refused to write it. Wang Yiren was so worried about borrowing the money.

"Miss Lin, why was Xinlong Money House sealed? Is it really involved in the arson case?" Wang Yiren couldn't help asking.

Lin Yanyan is Zhen Ri'an and a person from Shuntian Mansion, so he must know the inside story.

In fact, she didn't care about the arson case, she just wanted to know if the money that existed in Xinlong Money House would never be withdrawn again. There are many different opinions outside now, and there are all kinds of statements. There are news that the owner of Xinlong Money House was arrested for making a mistake. If the money released cannot be retrieved, the loss will definitely fall on the deposit account.

"Well, it's indeed related to the arson case, but you don't have to worry, the money that exists in it will not be gone."

Since Lin Yanyan said that, Wang Yiren felt relieved, thanked him again, and took the money and left.
