Lin'an Never Night

Chapter 332 A Lot of Debt (Additional chapter for JJM leader)

Although the dock was quite busy, many people still stopped to watch.

Mainly because this girl cries very beautifully.

She squatted on the ground, and her goose yellow skirt was pulled up tightly, revealing a plump and juicy peach. What a rare sight.

Yang Yuan frowned, turned around and told Judge Cao who was following him: "Please help Judge Cao to escort the prisoner off the boat and prepare to send him to the Privy Council Prison."

Then Yang Yuan walked forward.

"Hey! Miss Xue...?" Seeing that there were so many onlookers, Yang Yuan did not call out Xue Bingxin's official status.

Xue Bingxin was crying sadly when she suddenly heard someone calling her and was startled.

She didn't expect that someone at the dock would recognize her. When she heard the voice, she didn't dare look up to see who it was. She hurriedly covered her face with her sleeves, pretended not to hear it, and turned around to run away.

Yang Yuan reluctantly grabbed her wrist and said with a smile: "Miss Xue, it's me, Yang Yuan. What are you doing?"

Xue Bingxin's face suddenly turned red, and she mumbled, "I...ah, I'm fine, I just..."

She picked up her sleeves and hurriedly wiped the tears from her face. She was extremely embarrassed and didn't know how to start.

Yang Yuan looked at the pile of baskets in front of him with curiosity. The rich aroma of fruit wine came from these rattan and bamboo baskets. It couldn't be fruit wine. Could it be that the fruit was rotten?
Dan Niang, Emmanuelle Belle and Qingtang got off another merchant ship and were about to head towards Yang Yuan.

Before they got closer, they saw Yang Yuan holding a girl in a goose yellow shirt and talking to her.

Dan Niang said coquettishly: "Erlang just arrived at the dock and he was flirting with other girls. His luck with women is really good!"

Emmanuelle Belle said in a nonchalant manner, "Mrs. Dan must have misunderstood. Miss Xiangxuan from the Shen Mansion and many other girls volunteered to follow Mr. Yang, but he didn't want them. Mr. Yang is a very self-disciplined man."

Dan Niang was both angry and amused. Don't I know whether my man is self-disciplined or not? She just said it casually. This foreign woman is sometimes very "Song Guo Tong", but sometimes she doesn't understand the ways of the world at all?
Xue Bingxin was pulled aside by Yang Yuan. She had no choice but to explain the situation to Yang Yuan in a stammering voice.

Xue Bingxin was fooled by Mr. Wang at the beginning and thought that the future was bright. She had just gained her freedom and needed to re-plan her future, so she invested all her savings and even borrowed 500 strings of cash from Mr. Wang, preparing to make a fortune.

However, any business has its own knowledge. If a layman ventures into it without anyone to guide him, it will be very difficult to succeed.

Not all those who follow the wind and stand at the forefront of the trend will become successful. Many of them make mistakes one after another and become stepping stones for others.

However, survivor bias causes others to only see the glory of the successful person, but ignore the many failures lying under his feet.

The fruit business is a very mature industry, and it is even more difficult for Xue Bingxin to get a piece of the pie.

The capital of 1,500 strings of cash plus the high-interest loan of 500 strings of cash makes a total of 2,000 strings of cash, which is a huge sum of money.

The amount of fruit Xue Bingxin bought was huge.

However, she had not yet arranged all the links such as storage and sales, and she did not even have a store of her own.

She couldn't find a sales channel and she didn't have a capable assistant, so she had to do everything herself.

However, she did not dare to delay the official business of the Machine Speed ​​Room. When Yang Yuan was not around, she was the head of the "Chanzi Room" and had little time and energy to manage the business.

As a result, not only could the fruits in the warehouse not be sold, but the goods unloaded from the dock also collapsed in the sun because they could not be stored in time.

Looking at the pile of rotten fruits, her heart was bleeding.

From the very beginning of her business, she felt that it was not easy. As the pressure accumulated until now, Xue Bingxin finally broke down and squatted on the ground crying loudly.

She feels distressed and wronged.

In fact, she had sensed a long time ago that her business was going to end, and from then on, she never talked about business matters with Leng Yuchan again, because... she still cared about her reputation.

I was stubborn and refused to listen to others' advice, so I was naturally ashamed to talk about my failure with my best friend.

Now, let alone making money, she has lost all the money she has saved for many years.

Even if she sold all her accumulated fruits at a low price now, she estimated that she could only pay off one-fifth of Mr. Wang's debt.

"I...I'm so stupid, really," Xue Bingxin said with sobs.

Anyway, Yang Yuan has already seen her ugly appearance, so there is no need to pretend anymore.

Xue Bingxin cried out of breath, "I lost all my life savings."

Yang Yuan comforted him, "Don't talk nonsense. How old are you? It's already been a lifetime. Your life has just begun."

Yang Yuan's consolation made Xue Bingxin even sadder: "I... I also borrowed money from someone at high interest rates, and the interest is compounded. I will have to pay off the debt for the rest of my life. Why is my life so miserable? Wow..."

Emmanuelle Belle stood not far away, looking at Xue Bingxin with tears streaming down her face, and began to waver in her previous judgment.

She said to Dan Niang seriously, "You are right. That girl...may have a bad relationship with Mr. Yang. She should be waiting for him to come back at the dock, right?"

When Xue Bingxin held Yang Yuan's hand and cried like this, the looks from the onlookers around her seemed a little strange.

Yang Yuan was being stared at by countless eyes, some were pointing and some were whispering, and he could no longer bear it. When he saw Dan Niang and the others standing not far away, Yang Yuan waved to them.

Seeing this, Dan Niang and Bei'er came over. Qingtang jumped and ran over first and grabbed Xue Bingxin's hand.

Qingtang said affectionately: "Sister, please don't cry. My master is the most responsible man. He will definitely take responsibility for you and the child."

Xue Bingxin asked blankly: "What child?"

After hearing this, Dan Niang was relieved and said happily, "You don't have any children yet, so you don't have to worry about it."

Dan Niang took Xue Bingxin's other hand and said enthusiastically: "I am Dan Niang, I am only eighteen years old, I wonder how old you are, young lady?"

"Ah? I'm nineteen."

"Oh, then I have to call you sister. What's your name?"

"My surname is Xue."

"So it's the Xue family's sister. There are so many people coming and going on this pier. Don't cry. If someone recognizes Erlang's identity, wouldn't it damage his official reputation?
We are a family from now on, so you have to maintain your man's reputation. Did your family find out about you and Erlang? Did your parents scold you? Don't worry, Sister Xue, Erlang will handle it properly. "

"I can't handle that!"

The more Xue Bingxin listened, the more confused she became, but the more Yang Yuan listened, the more he understood.

He said unhappily, "You are just being too smart. This girl is my colleague in the Privy Council, a female official..."

Qingtang exclaimed: "Wow! And she's a female official, brother-in-law, you are really amazing."

"I……"

Yang Yuan raised his hands. It would be difficult to continue fighting in public.

Yang Yuan said angrily: "Shut up! I said it has nothing to do with me. Miss Xue is sad because she lost money in the fruit business..."

Xue Bingxin's face flushed red, and she said hesitantly, "Master, you don't have to speak so loudly. People can hear you."

Yang Yuan rolled his eyes. What was Xue Bingxin thinking?
Just now Qingtang said that you were pregnant before marriage, but you didn't seem embarrassed. It's nothing big to lose money in business, but you are ashamed.

Xue Bingxin was not afraid that Qingtang would misunderstand that she and Yang Yuan were having an affair. She had never done so, so she was justified and had no guilt in her heart.

But you said she lost money in business... She did lose money in business!

A lifetime savings!

Thinking of the tragic situation, the little money-loving boy couldn't help crying again.

Yang Yuan briefly explained to Dan Niang why Xue Bingxin was crying, and winked, "I have to take care of some official business first. You go back first. You also take care of Miss Xue."

Seeing his expression, Dan Niang knew that he wanted her to enlighten Xue Bingxin, so she took Xue Bingxin's hand with a smile and said softly, "Miss Xue, let's leave the dock first. There are so many people watching us. You are a person of status, it's really embarrassing."

Xue Bingxin said reluctantly: "No, my fruit has not been processed yet..."

Emmanuelle Belle advised, "From what I smell, your fruit is probably 80% rotten. If you hire someone to clean it up and pick out the good fruit and then sell it at a low price, I'm afraid you won't even be able to earn back the wages of the workers who picked the fruit. It's better to ignore it."

Xue Bingxin felt sad when she heard this and burst into tears again.

Qingtang shook his head and sighed like a little adult: "You two are both good at persuading others. One or two of you will make me worry less."

Qingtang took Xue Bingxin's hand and dragged her out of the dock, while persuading her: "Sister Xue, isn't it just losing money? It's not a big deal. If you want to do business, you can ask my brother-in-law for advice. My brother-in-law is very good at business."

Xue Bingxin was dragged away by her, and asked blankly: "Who is your brother-in-law?"

Qingtang said: "My brother-in-law is Mr. Yang."

Xue Bingxin suddenly realized and said with a sad smile: "I have lost all my capital and owe a lot of debts. How can I still do business?"

The con man Qingtang disagreed: "Why can't you do business without capital? My sister and I started out by doing business with no capital. No, I mean, if you don't have money, you can borrow from my brother-in-law. How much did you lose?"

"Oh, two thousand strings of cash, a full two thousand strings of cash, I really want to die..."

"Don't die, don't die. It's just two thousand strings of cash. It's not a big deal. My brother-in-law just gave three thousand strings of cash to a girl from Shanyin. It was a gift, not a loan..."

Yang Yuan looked at their backs. Which side is this leaky little cotton jacket from? Why are its elbows turned outward?
Cao Yiqing came over and said, "Master Yang, the people have been escorted off the boat. Shall we go to the Privy Council now?"

Yang Yuan said, "Please ask Judge Cao to send the prisoner to the Privy Council. I have to go to the Prince of Pu'an's mansion first to meet the king."

Cao Yiqing nodded, brought his own men, and escorted the Shen family prisoners to the Privy Council.

Yang Yuan rented a car at the pier and went straight to Prince Pu'an's Mansion.

He wants to settle the "Ma Huang Crossbow" case as soon as possible!

Everything is for Prime Minister Qin!
