Chapter 1422: The door to collect debts

"Xiao Xin, find out the trilogy of Ghost Story of the Chinese Girl." Jiang Hao ordered.

"OK."

After thinking about it, the Ghost Story of A Chinese Girl comes from Liaozhai. I am afraid that there will be no only one Ghost Story of A Chinese Girl.

"Find out the origin of Liaozhai" and there are also various Liaozhai movies and TV series."

"Xiao Xin understands."

After reading these materials for a few days, Jiang Hao had a deeper understanding of that world. The demons, ghosts, underworld, female ghosts and fox spirits are really a turbulent and mysterious world.

I was ready to go. I was in the supercomputer room this day, and I opened the system panel. I didn’t hesitate anymore and clicked the button to receive the task.

Brush ~!

The figure disappeared in the supercomputer room.

The next moment, Jiang Hao appeared in the mission world. Before he could open his eyes, a stream of information poured into his mind, letting him know his current situation.

When he opened his eyes, Jiang Hao found himself in a room. At this moment, the weather was cold and the sound of whimpering wind came outside the window, which made the window paper tremble continuously, but he was only wearing a thin green cloth scholar's robe.

There is a paint-deprived wooden bed in the corner of the wall with a thin quilt on it.

There is an old desk next to it, with a few thread-bound books on the table. You can see the name of the book on the top, a thick inkstone, two bald pens, and an oil lamp next to it, and only half an oil in the lamp bowl.

It is truly a poor family who has broken a house and has a family of only four walls.

His name is Jiang Hao, 21 years old this year, with his name Hanyang, which means a magnificent red sun rises on the vast ocean, emitting a brilliant light.

The Jiang family used to be a middle-aged family. The ancestors left more than ten acres of land. The parents worked hard to cultivate, and had no worries about food and clothing. They tried their best to send him to a private school to study and learn to read since childhood, hoping that he could pass the exam and glorify his family.

But a few years ago, my father was seriously ill and spent all his savings at home. He sold several acres of land, but still couldn't cure it. After his father passed away, his mother contracted a serious illness again. He sought medical treatment everywhere but failed. Finally, he left the world, leaving only Jiang Hao.

Before his death, he still told Jiang Hao not to give up studying, even if he only passed the exam for one scholar, he would be relieved to know him.

Jiang Hao only knew how to study but not farm, so he rented out the remaining six acres of land. He barely survived by collecting some food every year and continued to study. He hoped that one day he would really go to high school and fulfill his parents' wish.

Jiang Hao had also taken the county exam several times before, but he had never been able to pass it once, which had a great blow to him.

You should know that if you want to pass the scholar exam, you need to pass the county exam, the government exam, and the college exam in order to eventually become a scholar. Now he can’t even pass the simplest county exam, so how can he come to the high school and shine on his family?

Moreover, the most important problem he faced was not the imperial examination, but how to live. The money and grain he received for renting a few acres of land was only enough for him to fill his stomach. He also had to read, write, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, which was naturally not enough.

Moreover, Jiang Hao suffered from a serious illness a few years ago. Not only did he waste money and food, but he also had debts.

When I walked to the outer room, there was a stove here, next to it was a wooden washing rack, and there was a clay pot on it. It was originally a copper basin, but it had been sold before, so I could only use clay pots to make do with it.

A can of water was taken from the water tank next to it and poured it into the clay pot. The water surface gradually calmed down. The bottom of the black painted basin reflected the water like a mirror. Jiang Hao looked down and found that he looked like a person. Although he was just wrapped in green cloth, his hair was a little scattered, but he still couldn't hide his handsomeness.

"Crazy~!"

I picked up a handful of water and washed it, and it felt very refreshing.

Now that I am here, everything will definitely change before. I have all my skills. Can I really be so poor that I can't eat enough to eat and go hungry?

After washing up, Jiang Hao is ready to sort out the information in his mind and consider how to do it in the future.

The system task is to "eliminate the evil spirits of heaven and earth". How to start?

Suddenly,

With Jiang Hao's keen hearing, he heard someone outside the yard and the wooden door was pushed open. Everyone walked in. Jiang Hao took the cloth towel and wiped it. At this moment, the door was pushed open with a bang.

Huh~!

The cold wind rushed in from the gate and brought in a cool breeze. Fortunately, Jiang Hao was not afraid of the cold, otherwise he would probably be trembling with his single clothes.

When two strong Qingyi servants saw Jiang Hao, one of them smiled, "Oh, it seems that Jiang Shusheng has recovered from his illness. Congratulations, our Butler Cao is in the hospital and asks you to go over and talk."

Manager Cao and Jiang Hao paused slightly, and then found the memory in his mind. It seemed that the debt collector was coming.

"Since Butler Cao is here, it's better to go into the house and talk." Jiang Hao said.

Another servant looked at the room with a cold face, "You are black and smelly in this broken place. It's dirty to go in. Mr. Cao's robe. Come out quickly. I don't have time to wait for you."

Jiang Hao put down his towel and followed him to the yard.

It was the first lunar month. Although the territory of Jinhua Mansion was not as cold as snow, it was also very cold. In addition, there was wind today, several servants looked at Jiang Hao with their hands shrank outside, with many bad eyes. There was a middle-aged man in brocade clothes standing among them, with fat heads and big ears, which was Housekeeper Cao.

Manager Cao looked at Jiang Hao with his little eyes, "Scholar Jiang, the New Year is over and the Lantern Festival is over. We are officially working today to clear the original accounts. You owe our Hu family money house 20 taels of silver, is it time to pay it back?"

Jiang Hao immediately remembered the past.

In the cold winter of the New Year, Jiang Hao suddenly had a cold and was so sick that he was desperate. He tried his best to seek medical treatment in the town clinic, but he had no money. In order to survive with a high fever, he lent 20 taels of silver from the bank in a daze. After spending all his money, he finally survived, but spent all his money.

Jiang Hao sighed in his heart, poor people really can't afford to get sick.

A serious illness can make people lose their money.

The Jiang family had food and clothing before, but their parents were seriously ill and emptied their spare money. In the end, they could only sell the land and spend another expense on their parents' future lives. Jiang Hao was sick himself and mortgaged the remaining six acres of land and borrowed 20 taels of silver.

"Give me a loan note to see it." Jiang Hao said.

After hearing Jiang Hao's words, Butler Cao was slightly surprised. He had been looking for such poor scholars to collect debts before, and usually he would beg for timidity, crying and complaining that he could not repay, or begging for a few days of gratitude. Unexpectedly, the scholar Jiang in front of him was calm.

The so-called 'Money is a person's courage, clothing is a person's power, wealth is a strong waist, and someone will listen to his fate'.

Could he have money to pay back the debt?

Take out a loan note from your sleeve and handed it to Jiang Hao and said, "Look at it yourself, this is the loan note you signed in person."

Jiang Hao took it and looked at it. It was an official loan note, which used the six acres of land in his family as collateral, and borrowed twenty taels of silver from the Hu Family Money House for three months, and repaid the principal and interest of 60 taels. If the payment is not paid within the deadline, the Hu Family Money House will take away the mortgaged land.

Depend on!

The interest rate is really high. It is a perfect super usury loan shark, with a profit of 200% in March.

Jiang Hao shook his hand and handed the loan note back to Mr. Cao, and said in a plain tone: "The loan lasts for three months. It's only two months now, and there's still one month left. It's not too late to collect debts when it expires."

Manager Cao looked at Jiang Hao with small eyes, but was shocked by his demeanor for a moment and did not dare to act rashly.

If it were in the past, even if we didn’t force the land to be taken away, we would probably have to ridicule a few words.

Although he had investigated before, the Jiang family had no tough relatives, but the scholar in front of him felt that he did not dare to provoke him easily. He reached out to take the loan note and put it in his sleeve.

"March period, okay, I'll come to you next month to ask for the account. I hope you can take out 60 taels of snow-patterned silver by then."

Manager Cao left with a few servants in blue, and wanted to go to collect debts from other families. Jiang Hao looked at Manager Cao's fat back and his nose moved.

He has achieved success in his cultivation and felt sensitive. He felt a faint demonic aura in this butler Cao.

Jiang Hao was sure that it was definitely a demonic spirit.

But he was sure that this butler Cao was a human or not.

Jiang Hao had a guess in his heart that the demonic aura on his body was probably often infected with people with demonic aura.

Hu family in Qingxi Town?

It’s not the Hu family in Qingxi Town.

The world I came to is the world of Ghost Story of Chinese Girls, with evil spirits everywhere, and centipede spirits can enter the house and become the prime minister of a country. It is not surprising that fox demons are a wealthy family, and it is not surprising that they open money houses and lend money loans.

It is absolutely impossible for ordinary workers to earn 60 taels in a month.

Even Jiang Hao is a bit urgent in a month, and he may not make any profit without any extraordinary means.

Could you go to steal, rob, kidnap and cheat and do your old business?

"Gululu!"

Jiang Hao's stomach screamed, as if it was a frog croaking. It was obvious that he was hungry. This guy only drank one bowl of porridge in the morning and one bowl of porridge at noon. Now he saw that there was no oil and water in his stomach, so it would be strange if he was not hungry.

First, help the emergency and solve the immediate problems.
Chapter completed!
