Unexpectedly, Zhong Jinwei didn't tear it off, but threw it on the corner of the table in front of him, and then continued what he said just now: "I didn't expect that your hearts are so dark that you can collect such a high interest."

The squire down there breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the angel was not fooling around, as the IOUs were thrown on the table.

"Students have different opinions. The interest is an agreement reached in advance. It's something you like. If you think the interest is too high, you won't borrow it at the beginning. What's more, students are always enthusiastic about government affairs and don't calculate it on a daily basis. Interest, the principal and interest can be postponed until the end of the year, and it doesn’t matter.”

Sun Buguang saw that Zhong Jinwei was still reasonable after all, and he was just complaining, so he bowed his hand to Zhong Jinwei and started to play tricks.

"So, do you still make sense?" Zhong Jinwei did not become angry, but with a slight smile, he leaned his back on the chair and asked.

"Students also need to eat, and they must not be hungry for the court. Since ancient times, it is only natural to ask for interest on borrowing money."

Sun Buguang felt that his eloquence was good, so he suppressed the angel with righteousness, so that the angel had nothing to say, and he began to calm down while talking, without panic or jumping eyes.

Seeing Sun Buguang's performance, the other gentry gradually relaxed their tense expressions, watching Sun Buguang deal with the angels in the hall.

"Okay, then the Marquis understands that if I owe you money, I must give you interest. But what should I do if I didn't agree on the interest in advance?" Zhong Jinwei stared at Sun Buguang and asked.

Sun Buguang was taken aback when he heard that, the interest was agreed in advance, and it was all written on the IOU.He saw Zhong Jinwei looking at him seriously, and waiting for his reply, he had no choice but to reply: "Students think that asking for interest is a matter of course, and those who owe money have nothing to say."

"Okay." Zhong Jinwei yelled when Sun Buguang's voice just fell, and then sat up straight, "That's good. Come on! Pay back the money owed to them."

"Yes, Lord Hou." Gu Baichuan agreed, took the IOU from the corner of the table, waved to the two men, walked up to the gentry and said, "Follow me to get the money." After finishing speaking, he walked out first .

These country gentry all looked forward to Sun Buguang's lead, and only chased after Sun Buguang followed.

Ma Qinglin was at the end, and when he came out of the lobby, he vaguely heard the angel talking to Hong Zhongcheng about recovering the debt, which made him wonder secretly, who owed the money to the angel, who is really brave enough.

But he felt that the matter had nothing to do with him, so he just thought about it, and happily followed the others to collect his silver taels.

These squires did not expect to get all the silver taels so easily, and they couldn't take away so much in a short time.They all piled up at the gate of the governor's office, and then called the servants to hire a car with a smile on his face.

Just as they were happily looking at a large pile of silver that belonged to them, groups of soldiers drove out from the yamen, and the yamen servants led the way, holding various measuring tools, and scattered away.

Then some yamen servants led the Jinyi guards out of the governor's yamen in a file, and behind them were some officials from the governor's yamen, who scattered away with their account books.

The squires looked curious and vaguely felt that something was wrong, so they sent servants to follow to see the situation.

After Ma Qinglin moved Yinliang home, the servant he sent out ran back to report the news.

"My lord, it's not good. The government has checked taxes on several shops, and they didn't say anything about it. They even said that the shops will be closed." The servant reported panting.

This surprised Ma Qinglin, and he couldn't care less, and hurried to his shop.

In Sun Buguang's house, he also received a report from a servant: "Master is not well, the government has gone outside the city to measure the fields."

"What?" Sun Buguang was so shocked that he dropped the teacup in his hand on the ground, "Really?"

The servant nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "It's absolutely true, villains dare not lie."

Sun Buguang immediately thought of the young angel. This was definitely revenge, a counterattack against the loan and silver.

If someone else dares to do this, he can just go to the relative of the general.But he was an imperial envoy and came with his own army, so no one dared to stop him.If you go to the capital to find someone, that will not solve the near fire.

Sun Buguang decided to go to the scene to have a look, and ordered his servants to lead the way quickly.

Those country gentry were alarmed one after another, looking around at their properties and pavements, Yulin Town seemed like a stone thrown into calm water, suddenly it was no longer calm, and it became lively.

Those soldiers, Jin Yiwei are all like wolves and tigers, and they can't be messed with at first glance.The squires could only watch anxiously.In the end, someone suggested that they all go to Sun Buguang for advice.

At this time, Sun Buguang had already wandered around his field and shop and returned home, when he was bumped into by those gentry, who surrounded him eagerly, asking him for advice.

Surrounded by a group of gentry, Sun Buguang paced back and forth thinking of ideas.But the background of the other party is too great, and there is no good way for a while.He thought for a while, stood up and said: "Everyone be quiet, listen to me."

The circle of people around him immediately fell silent, waiting for him to speak.

"Everyone, this is definitely revenge against us. It's so ruthless. It's worthy of being the master who can wipe out all the Shanxi merchants in Zhangjiakou. We borrow money at a time and earn some interest. It was completely overthrown. This transaction is really unfair, now we can only go to the governor's office together, beg to see the angel, return the money this time, and beg him to stop."

Sun Buguang was a little reconciled. He didn't expect that Hou Zhongxing first repaid the loan according to the rules, and then did it again.But this hand made it upright and upright, and it stood up in terms of reasoning.

As we all know, only some of their fields are exempt from taxes, and most of the fields are not subject to land taxes.Most of those products were stuffed with red envelopes to tax officials in various places, tax evasion and tax evasion, and there was no proof of paying taxes at all.

In the past, some people would use the vouchers to falsify to cope with possible inspections.But for a long time, no one has checked, and no one will make fakes.As a result of today's investigation, all the tax omissions can be found out.

Therefore, Sun Buguangyi suggested, and all the squires agreed.Under the leadership of Sun Buguang, he went to the governor's office in a mighty way.

At this time, Zhong Jinwei was very leisurely, drinking tea and chatting with Hong Chengchou alone in Houya, his guards were not around, and he stayed outside busy with the things Zhong Jinwei explained.

"Master Hou, if you do this, you will offend all the squires in Yulin Town, okay? Why don't you blackmail them beforehand and ask them to keep the interest, so that the two sides won't tear each other apart." Hong Chengchou said to ZTE Hou was a little worried about this kind of fanfare and poaching people's roots, so he suggested to Zhong Jinwei.

"What are you afraid of? They use the law of the Ming Dynasty and the righteousness of the law to suppress me. I will accompany you, and I will fight back with the law of the Ming Dynasty and the righteousness of the law. What can they say? Go to the capital to sue me?" Zhong Jinwei was not concerned about Hong Chengchou's worries. Take it for granted.

He took a sip of tea, saw that Hong Chengchou was still a little worried, so he enlightened him: "Don't worry, they won't sue me. Don't say that I act according to the law, even if they want to make me step down from other ways, there is no way." I was two months away from arriving in Ming Dynasty, and there were still a few months in which I was in a coma because of rescue. After waking up, I ran around to conquer Jianlu. If you want to sue me for corruption, my only property is the reward from the emperor. How to sue? Want to slander me through my family? Sorry, I am still single in Daming. What do you think they can do to me?"

Hong Chengchou didn't know the specific situation of Zhong Jinwei. Hearing his confession, he couldn't help being very curious. It's really strange that Zhongxing Hou rose to the Ming Dynasty.Appearing out of nowhere, yet doing a lot in a short amount of time.Not to mention the matter of rescue, this kind of thing is rare.Talking about the battle of Gyeonggi alone, it has made a contribution that ordinary people can't make.

It is said that birds die for food and people die for wealth.But Marquis Zhongxing only had one salary, and he didn't rely on his status as Marquis to steal by chance, otherwise he wouldn't have dealt with those squires like this.

Hong Chengchou couldn't figure out what the purpose of Zhong Jinwei's dedication was, but he believed that everyone had his own purpose, and his benefactor's purpose was unclear, which made him feel a little panicked, and he was afraid of being dragged down.

It's not easy to get an official status, and to achieve a high position that ordinary people can't achieve. As long as you are more careful in the future, the shadow deep in your heart will never fall on you again.

After thinking for a long time, he still wanted to understand Zhong Jinwei's purpose.He doesn't believe that there are still saints in this world who don't care about themselves and are dedicated to the public.

Suddenly, he suddenly thought of a possibility, and suddenly felt hot all over his body, and his forehead was slightly sweaty.
