Chapter 1195 20,000 taels of gambling debt
"How much money does he owe you?"
Mrs. Ning didn't even want to shout, and pointed at Mr. Ning and asked Zhao Ba.
Zhao Ba smiled with a kind look on his face and stretched out two fingers, "Twenty thousand taels."
Twenty thousand taels?
The Ning family members were so shocked that they widened their eyes and took a breath.
If they had been in the past, they would not have been scared by 20,000 taels, because they had it at that time, but now they have it, and these 20,000 taels will become a huge number in their eyes.
The second master Ning also looked at Zhao Ba in shock, "When did I borrow so much money?"
In his impression, he didn't borrow so much.
Zhao Ba shook a stack of loan notes and said, "There are words signed by Master Ning and the secrets you have drawn. We didn't calculate too much for you."
Ning Ruyu from the side palace was so angry that she gritted her teeth. Her second uncle actually owed 20,000 taels of silver in the gambling house. He lost all the silver in the public. The ten thousand taels of silver that grandmother took out was not enough to pay him back the gambling debts.
If the family gathered together, the money could be collected, but why should I raise it?
This is the debt owed by the second uncle.
He lost all the money in his family, so why did his family help him pay off his gambling debts?
"Can you show me the loan?"
Mr. Ning maintained his demeanor as a juren.
"Can."
Zhao Ba directly handed out all the IOU in his hand. The IOU was in duplicate and the other was in their casino. He was not afraid that Master Ning would tear the IOU.
Master Ning is a scholar and a juren, so he should not be able to do such shameless things.
The concierge took the loan note from Zhao Ba and sent it to Mr. Ning.
Mr. Ning took it and looked at it one by one. Each loan note was 1,000 taels, a total of twenty. Each one had the signature and handprints of the second child.
He recognized the handwriting of the second child, but his signature was indeed his and it was not faked.
This loan note says that borrowing money is a profit of two cents.
So to be precise, it is not 20,000 taels of silver, but 20,000 and 400 taels of silver.
After Master Ning finished reading one by one, Zhao Ba asked with a smile: "Is there something wrong?"
They are serious gambling houses and will not do anything random, so these IOUs have no problems.
Since two years ago, the government has been cracking down on the behavior of cheating in casinos. Undercover agents often go to the gambling house to investigate, so now they don’t dare to cheat.
They did not cheat, but the other elders Ning were still able to lose so much money in their gambling house. It can only be said that the second elders Ning's luck is really bad.
In fact, Mr. Ning won at the beginning, but after he won, he didn't know how to stop and started losing.
The more he loses, the more he wants to win. Without the money, he borrows from their gambling house. Before he knows it, he borrows so much money and loses so much money.
Mr. Ning took a deep breath, bit his back teeth in a frustration and said, "Nothing is wrong."
Mrs. Ning, Mrs. Ning and Mrs. Ning Er were originally looking forward to the issue that there was a problem with this IOU, so they had reason not to repay, or to pay back less.
But Mr. Ning's words "Nothing wrong."
It broke all the expectations in their hearts.
"Since that's right, please pay back the money! We can go back and pay the job."
Zhao Ba said, "The Ning family has a great fortune, and this little money is nothing to the Ning family!"
No matter who puts 20,000 taels of silver, it cannot be said that it is nothing.
The Ning family wants face. Even if the family is empty, they don’t want outsiders to know about it.
I don’t want this to be spread, so that I can tell that their Ning family is in decline.
Of course, the money has to be paid back, otherwise it will be their Ning family who are embarrassed and laughed at, and it will also have an impact on the Ning family who are preparing to take the imperial examination and enter the officialdom.
Mr. Ning said with a dark face: "You guys wait, let's prepare the money now."
"good."
Zhao Ba replied with a smile.
