Chapter 164: Crazy face slapping! A mountain of gold and rain will bury you!
Translator: 549690339
The Earl of Black Tortoise, Jin Zhuo, led his family members to welcome them.
This was the first time he had shown his face in a few months, and he was a completely different person compared to before.
She had lost more than 20 to 30 pounds.
His face was so pale that there was no blood in it, and he was trembling as he walked.
Many wrinkles appeared on his originally smooth forehead.
A third of his black hair had turned white.
It was not easy. It took Shen lang a long time to see his father-in-law’s attitude.
However, the effects were amazing. Compared to uncle Black Tortoise, he was probably more than ten years older.
This tragic scene was truly shocking.
“Ahem, ahem, ahem!”
When the cold wind blew, uncle Black Tortoise started to cough violently.
His wife su Peipei was extremely distressed and gave him another coat. However, at this moment, his skinny body seemed to be crushed by even a piece of clothing.
Previously, there were people who suspected that the Black Tortoise Bo Jin Zhuo was pretending to be sick, but now it seemed that he was not pretending at all.
How could such a desolate appearance be faked?
However, it was normal when he thought about it. After winning the battle for the gold Mountain Island, the Jin family was still in high spirits and thought that the crisis of the family had been resolved in an instant.
However, he did not expect that Tang Lun, the Earl of Jin hai, would be so despicable that he would hand over the Jinshan Island to the Pirate King Qiu Tianwei.
Not only did Earl Jin Zhuo fail to obtain Gold Mountain Island, but he also suffered heavy losses and abandoned his armor.
Not only did they not gain any benefits from winning the battle for the Golden Mountain Island, but they also accelerated their destruction.
The key point was that no one in the entire country helped. Previously, uncle Black Tortoise had sent a few memorials requesting the monarch to send troops to exterminate the Pirates, but he had gained nothing.
Instead, a group of people pounced on him.
Zhu Wenhua, the sixth Prince, and the Chi family were all here.
The hundred-year-old ally, the Xue family, had come to break off the engagement at the crucial moment, ruthlessly stabbing him with a knife.
Even a small businessman like Lin Mo could pounce on him and take a bite.
No one could withstand such a huge blow.
Under such despair, it was already very impressive that Black Tortoise Bo Jin Zhuo was still alive.
“Zhuo greets uncle Wang, the sixth Prince, and the Lords!”
Uncle Black Tortoise led the entire family and bowed. That trembling appearance really made one’s heart ache.
Then, he coughed violently again.
Uncle ning Qi looked at Earl Jin Zhuo with a complicated gaze and sighed, ” “Black Tortoise, I haven’t seen you for a few months. How did you end up like this?”
Uncle Black Tortoise smiled sadly.
Ning Qi and Wang Shu said, ” I told you that day that it was not a good thing for your family to win the battle of the Jinshan Island. You should stop when you are ahead. But you didn’t. Otherwise, how would you end up in such a state? ”
“I’d rather die in glory than live in dishonor!” Uncle Black Tortoise Jin Zhuo said.
Then, he stood to the side and said,”everyone, please!” No matter what kind of knife is going to stab my Jin clan today, bring it on. ”
Everyone’s expression changed when they heard this.
Since your uncle Black Tortoise was so blunt, then don’t blame us for being merciless.
............
There was a huge table in the hall of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
On the left sat the Earl of Black Tortoise, Jin Zhuo, his wife, su Peipei, Shen lang, Jin Mulan, and Jin mucong.
The whole family was really United.
Bah!
They were a complete family now.
This time, Shen lang did not wear his luxurious brocade robe. Instead, he was wearing a black robe. It was as if he felt the end of the Jin family.
On the right side of the long table sat the elder Shu botao, the messenger Shu tingyu, and a group of members of the Association.
The Royal uncle ning Qi, the sixth Prince Ning Jing, the Minister of Revenue, the Imperial censor, and the governor of Tiannan province, Zhu Rong, were the five big shots as witnesses and judges.
uncle Xuanwu, ” Shu tingyu said, ” your father, Jin Yu, borrowed one million gold coins from us to eliminate the Pirates. He also hired three thousand Warriors and an entire fleet. Is that true? ”
Shu tingyu took out the loan contract from that year.
It was written clearly on it, and it even had the signature and seal of the Earl of golden universe.
“That’s right!” Uncle Black Tortoise Jin Zhuo said.
Shu tingyu said, ” later, due to tactical mistakes, the Army led by your father, Earl golden universe, was completely annihilated. Of course, this will be omitted. The duration of this loan contract is twenty years. The principal and interest are 1.7 million gold coins. Any objections? ”
“No objections,” uncle Black Tortoise Jin Zhuo said.
Shu tingyu then took out a pile of account books and said, ” these are all the repayment records of Earl Jin Zhuo for the past twenty years. He has returned a total of one million gold coins, and he still owes seven hundred thousand gold coins. Any objections? ”
“No objections,” uncle Black Tortoise shook his head.
the 20-year contract is up, ” Shu tingyu said. the Jin family needs to pay off 700000 gold coins in one go. A month ago, I came to your residence and young master Shen lang said that he had no money and couldn’t return it, right?”
“Yes!” Shen lang nodded.
“This question needs to be answered by uncle Black Tortoise,” Shu tingyu said.
“That’s right,” uncle Black Tortoise Jin Zhuo said.
Then, he coughed violently again.
His wife, su Peipei, hurried forward and patted her husband’s back gently, tears pouring out of her eyes.
The Earl of Black Tortoise, Jin Zhuo, covered his mouth with a silk handkerchief and coughed. It took a long time for his coughing to subside, but when he looked down, he saw that the snow-white silk handkerchief was stained with a bright red.
He vomited blood!
Su Peipei’s tears were like broken beads.
When everyone saw this, they sighed in their hearts. This uncle Black Tortoise probably didn’t have long to live. He might even die on the spot today.
He was the pillar of the Jin clan. If he died, the Jin clan would be destroyed even faster.
“Twenty years ago, when the Earl of golden universe signed this reception contract, he used hope Cliff Island as collateral.” Now that the 20-year time limit is up, your family still hasn’t paid the money, so we have the right to take back the island. Although we can’t bear to do this, business is business. It’s only right to pay back what you owe.”
Then, Shu tingyu looked at uncle Wang, Ning Qi, and said, ” “The king also has a decree, right?”
Uncle Wang Ning Qi said, ” the king has spoken. It’s right and proper to pay back what you owe. Don’t Sully the reputation of the Yue State.
Shu tingyu pushed the mortgage contract to the middle and said, ” “This is a contract signed 20 years ago. It’s written clearly in black and white! If there’s no objection, then please sign it, uncle Black Tortoise. Then, Yin Yuan Association will immediately send someone to take over the gazing Cliff Island. Please evacuate all the soldiers, craftsmen, salt workers, miners, and so on from the island within three days. Do not destroy any mines, smelters, or salt centers on the island!”
“In order to help Yin Yuan Association take over look Cliff Island, the governor will send troops to the island to maintain order and prevent unnecessary conflicts!”
What a joke!
Previously, when the Earl of Jinhai, Tang Lun, took over the gold Mountain Island, why didn’t you send troops to maintain order? instead, you let the pirate Qiu Tianwei take the island away. You even ignored the Earl of Xuanwu’s request for the monarch to send troops to reclaim the island.
Now, how did you get an Army to help Yin Yuan Association take back hope Cliff Island?
Is this considered giving away a friend rather than a servant?
“Uncle Black Tortoise, please sign it.” let’s hurry up, ” Shu tingyu said. we’ll try to complete the handover within three days.
Once he signed, he would be handing over the Jin family’s economic lifeline, hope Cliff Island.
Uncle Black Tortoise’s body trembled and he coughed violently. Then, his vision turned black and he fainted.
Yin Yuanhui’s SHU tingyu said coldly, ” even if uncle Black Tortoise is unable to sign it, the contract is here. Ning Qi is here. The Minister is here. It can be enforced.
This was equivalent to the modern earth. If you owed money and refused to pay it back, the court had the power to seal your property to pay off the debt.
Su Peipei hugged uncle Black Tortoise and shook him hard. “Husband, husband Xuanji”
Then, her face was full of tears and hatred. She looked at everyone present and said in grief and indignation, ” “Are you guys trying to force me to my death?”
“Madam, we didn’t want this to happen either,” Shu tingyu said indifferently. But the rules are as such.”
Su Peipei said,”Shu tingyu, don’t think we don’t know.” my father-in-law took a loan of one million gold coins and hired three thousand Warriors and an entire fleet to attack Qiu Tianwei. But why did Qiu Tianwei know all of our military deployment? It’s all because of the information you leaked to Qiu Tianwei, which led to our complete annihilation.”
Yin Yuan Guild’s elder, Shu botao, said lightly, ” “Mrs. Su, don’t talk nonsense without evidence. You’ll have to take responsibility if you say it.”
Su Peipei said fiercely,”then kill me, kill me, Yingluo.”
Shen lang said, ” mother-in-law, help father-in-law back to rest. Leave everything here to me.
Su Peipei supported the Black Tortoise Bo Jin Zhuo and left the hall. They returned to the room and pushed a big box to Shen lang.
This was the seal of the Jin family, which was close to the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
Prince Jin mucong, miss Jin Mulan, ” Shu tingyu said. are you sure you want to hand over all the power to Shen lang? ”
Jin Mulan nodded and agreed.
Jin mucong’s soul flew out of his body. After hearing Shu tingyu’s words, he nodded and said, ” “Yes, I’ll let brother-in-law make the decision.”
As soon as he said this, everyone sneered in disdain.
No wonder your Jin clan was destroyed. You actually had to rely on such a lowly live-in son-in-law.
............
“Yin Yuanhui, I’ll be in charge of the discussion with you guys.” Shen lang lay back and said.
there’s nothing to talk about, ” Shu tingyu said. just sign it.
“Sign what?” Shen lang asked.
there’s no point in acting dumb, ” Shu tingyu said coldly. it doesn’t matter if you sign or not. We’re taking back hope Cliff Island today. If you sign, we’ll still have some dignity left. If you don’t sign it, then we’ll enforce it. Governor Zhu Rong’s Army will force their way onto the island and expel everyone from the Jin family on gazing Cliff Island.”
Shen lang said, ” then, I’ll sign it. Don’t reject my offer.
Shen lang took the contract, picked up the brush, and was about to sign it.
Everyone’s eyes were on the tip of Shen Lang’s Pen. If he continued to write, it would be equivalent to ringing the death knell of the Jin family.
However, Shen lang could not do this.
You should’ve just f ** king signed it.
Shen lang suddenly said,”that’s right, Yin Yuan Association is not the only one that came to collect debts, right?” You don’t just want moon Cliff Island, do you have any other contracts you want me to sign? do you want to take them all out?”
Everyone was silent.
Shen lang said, ” this is definitely not the only debt today. Where are the other creditors? ” Come out!”
A moment later!
The first person walked out.
The Earl of Jing ‘an’s son, Wu Yuanhua, held a loan receipt in his hand. It was actually Lin Mo’s.
That night, Lin Mo extorted 3300 gold coins from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu, saying that it was the money for tens of thousands of silkworms. Now, with interest, it was 3500 gold coins.
Lin Mo’s entire family had died, and they had died extremely miserably.
He didn’t expect that someone would come to collect this debt.
The Crown Prince of the Earl of Jing ‘an, Wu Yuanhua, said, ” this debt belongs to the master of the splendid Pavilion, Lin Mo. However, he has already died a tragic death. The debt can not be repaid even if he dies. As an in-law of the Lin family, I have the right to claim this debt for him. May I ask, young master Shen lang, do you still acknowledge this debt? ”
Shen lang said,”of course!” Wasn’t it just 3500 gold coins? I admit!”
Then, Shen lang said, ” who else? who else is here to collect the debt? ”
A moment later, another person came in.
He was wearing leather armor and had tattoos all over his body. Even his devilishly handsome face was covered in tattoos.
Enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road. He was the son of the Pirate King, Chou Xiao.
The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu really had a deep hatred for him.
Twenty years ago, the Pirate King Qiu Tianwei had completely annihilated the Jin family. Some time ago, Qiu Tianwei had sent an Army to take over the gold Mountain Island.
Not long ago, this Chou Xiao had sent people to poison the corpses in the well water in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s fief. He was prepared to create a plague and kill 10000 people.
Furthermore, he even joined forces with Viscount Zhu Lanting to destroy the Golden order dam and planned to drown the Earl of Xuanwu’s fief and thousands of people.
The son of the Pirate King was inhumane.
In the hall in front of them, there was the Minister of Revenue, uncle ning Qi, and the sixth Prince.
And this son of the Pirate King had actually come in? Everyone turned a blind eye to it.
Governor Zhu Rong, shouldn’t you send your troops to destroy the gold Mountain Island? Why did he turn a blind eye to this heinous pirate, Chou Xiao?
Chou Xiao entered and looked at Jin Mulan up and down with his greedy eyes for a long time.
So beautiful, there was almost no woman more beautiful than her.
It was a pity that the Crown Prince had his eyes on this woman, and no one dared to snatch her away.
Chou Xiao slammed a contract on the table and said coldly, ” twenty years ago, Jinyu led an Army to attack my Chou family. In the end, the entire Army was annihilated. We signed a truce agreement with raging tide city and promised to compensate my family with nine thousand gold coins every year. This year’s money hasn’t been paid yet? ”
“Isn’t there still half a month before the new year?” Shen lang asked.
Chou Xiao said coldly,”but your family is going to die before the new year, so pay me back.” Do you acknowledge this debt or not?”
Shen lang said,”9000 gold coins, right?” Yes, of course I do!”
Shen lang continued,”is there anything else?” Is there anyone else who wants to collect debts?”
After a moment, the Wu an Earl’s son, Xue Pan, walked in.
20 years ago, the Golden-sequence Earl attacked Qiu Tianwei and his entire Army was annihilated. We wanted to compensate the Army but did not have the money. My Xue family took the initiative to send 30000 gold coins. There is no contract for this. I wonder if young master Chen Lang knows? ”
There was indeed such a thing.
But at the time, the Xue family had clearly said that this money was given, not borrowed.
Moreover, this sum of money was not even one-tenth of the favor the Jin clan had done to the Xue clan.
if you want to return it, everything that the palace of the Earl of Wu ‘an and the southern sea Sword sect have was given to you by ancestor Jin Lu. How are you going to return it?
Now, you’re saying that you’re borrowing, but you’re actually here to collect the debt.
twenty years ago, it was thirty thousand gold coins. According to the lowest interest rate of long-term loans of the yinyuan Association, now we have to return fifty-one thousand gold coins with interest.
In such a short time, the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu had three more debts.
In total, it was 63500 gold coins.
At this moment, another person stood up.
It was actually the Vice Minister of Revenue. The Minister was sitting there without moving, so the Vice Minister spoke.
The assistant Minister of Revenue said, ” it is already the end of the year. The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu has yet to pay the taxes to the National Treasury. It was originally 9000 gold coins. However, after adding the debt accumulated over the past ten years, it is a total of 27000 gold coins.
The Jin clan indeed did not pay this year’s taxes, but to say that they owed it over the past ten years, that was completely nonsense.
Because this was simply a muddled account.
For example, if the State of Yue was going to build a big project this year, the old nobles below would need to work, but it was impossible to send people thousands of miles away to work, so they had to pay.
Another example would be when a Great War was about to break out in the State of Yue, and as an old noble, he had the obligation to dispatch civilian workers to transport grain, so he would give a discount again.
This was the so-called accumulated debt.
However, in the past few decades, there had been no fixed number of these so-called laborers. Most of the old nobles chose to turn a blind eye to it, and no one paid them.
To be honest, it was already amazing to be able to pay taxes on time every year.
Ask the Tang family of the count of Jinhai, how many years of tax has he owed? It must have been at least seven or eight years.
On the other hand, Earl Jin Zhuo has a straightforward personality and pays his taxes clearly every year. Among the many established families, my Jin family is the most active in paying taxes.
This was the fourth new debt, which added up to a hundred thousand gold coins.
It was obvious that the other party didn’t just want to take back watch Cliff Island.
Furthermore, he was going to force the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu to sell off all the tens of thousands of acres of land.
No wonder Chi Yu came over the day before yesterday and said that if he wanted to sell the land, he should look for her immediately. She had long regarded these tens of thousands of acres of fertile land as forbidden property.
They had lost gazing Cliff Island and tens of thousands of mu of fertile land.
What else did the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu have?
How could they support a private Army of Two to three thousand?
They want to Dig Your Roots!
sure, ” Shen lang said. this is the fifth debt. Do you have any more? ”
No one answered.
“Are there any more creditors?” Shen lang said loudly.
There was still no answer.
stop jumping, ” Shu tingyu said coldly. hurry up and sign. Hand over the island quickly.
“Your family can’t afford the remaining 100000 gold coins, so quickly sell your land. If it’s not enough to sell tens of thousands of acres of land, then sell the house. It’s only right to pay back your debts.”
At this moment, everyone’s eyes were filled with cruel sympathy.
There was no use struggling!
Your Jin family is destined to lose hope Cliff Island and tens of thousands of mu of fertile land.
He was destined to have nothing today.
That would add up to a total of 800000 gold coins.
The palace of the Earl of Xuanwu would not even be able to take out 8000 gold coins.
Eight hundred thousand gold coins was almost the tax of two Tiannan province. In just one month, even a God would not be able to produce that amount.
Previously, su Peipei had visited more than a dozen families and only borrowed 1000 gold coins in total. Everyone could clearly see how desperate she was.
Furthermore, Shen lang was just a clown!
“Sign it!” “We don’t have time to waste with you,” Shu tingyu said.
Chou Xiao said coldly, ” sell the land. Then, that woman from your family, Jin jianniang, can be used as collateral for 500 gold coins. That’s a sky-high price! That’s the price of gold.”
Shen lang looked at the son of the Pirate King.
Treasure! I’ll let you live for another ten days, just another ten days!
......
“Hahahaha!”
Shen lang picked up the contract on the table and tore it into pieces.
Then, he tore off the black cloth robe.
The most gorgeous brocade robe was revealed.
This was an unprecedented set of clothes that almost blinded everyone’s eyes. It was made with a total of 500 gold coins.
Shu tingyu’s expression changed drastically, and she said coldly, ” “Shen lang, are you crazy? Do you think that tearing the contract will help? If you can’t return the money, we’ll send the Army to enforce it!”
Shen lang smiled and said,”Shu tingyu, sign the contract with your mother.” Chou Xiao, sell your head!”
Everyone’s expression changed when they heard this.
Shen lang laughed and said,”it’s only 800000 gold coins and you want to force the Jin family into a dead end?” You want us to hand over hope Cliff Island and sell the land left by our ancestors?”
“Keep on dreaming!”
“Isn’t it just eight hundred thousand gold coins? It’s just a drizzle!”
Shen lang pulled out a strand of hair from his armpit and threw it on the table. even a single hair from me is worth more than 800000 gold coins!
Shu botao, Shu tingyu, Xue Pan, Wu Yuanhua, Chou Xiao, you foolish creditors stand still, stand still, don’t move, don’t move!
I’ve returned the money. 800000 gold coins, right? ”
“Return the money!” Shen lang suddenly shouted!
you idiots, don’t move! Open your mouths and take your money! Don’t move!
“You just want money, don’t you? I’ll use gold to bury you alive!”
“Bang!” There was a cracking sound.
Instantly!
The ceiling above everyone’s head suddenly cracked open, and a huge hole appeared.
A sky full of gold coins!
It came crashing down like a storm!
It was raining cats and dogs.
Golden rain.
It was an unprecedented scene.
It was an extremely shocking scene.
It was a scene that overturned one’s three views.
A total of seven hundred thousand gold coins and one hundred and twenty thousand gold coins.
They surged out like a tide.
It almost drowned the center of the hall in an instant.
The creditors were all drowned out.
............
[ note: I’ll post the third chapter today. The third chapter is 18000. It’s crazy! ]
My brothers, your support should also come crashing down on me like a storm! I’m so tired that I’m going to lie down for a while and then continue to write like crazy!
