Traveling through ancient times: starting with live streaming

After hearing this method, Zhou Chang immediately understood its meaning and couldn't help but secretly exclaimed, "Great!" Yes, why didn't she think of it.

No, it’s not that I didn’t expect it, it’s that I can’t do it.

Where could she get so much money that would make Xiao Bing willingly write such a document that would bind the two of them together?

With this written document, Xiao Bing could regret it later even if he wanted to, because if he wanted to report it, he would become an accomplice and would also be charged with the crime of deceiving the emperor.

Yuan Qi had no need to answer and ignored it, so Xiao Bing had to reply.

Xiao Bing was not stupid, he refused with a sneer: "No, do you think I'm stupid? Once this document is written, from now on, she and I will be tied to the same rope. I just owed her money, but now I'm charged with deceiving the emperor, right?"

"Don't agree?" Yuan Qi said calmly, "By the way, there are two other people coming with you, why don't they come in together? The night is still long, there is no rush, you can go and discuss it with them."

Xiao Bing's face changed, his eyes rolled around, and he seemed to be hesitant.

The reason why the two men refused to come in was because they didn't know where this place was and were cautious and fearful.

The reason why he dared to come in was not because he was brave, but because he had no other choice. The deadline had arrived today, and if he couldn't pay the money, he would probably lose an arm.

Yuan Qi had guessed this to some extent, so he said calmly: "Take your time to think about it. I wonder if your two friends know the inside story. If they do, you don't have to be on guard against them. You can invite them in for tea together."

"They? They know nothing." Xiao Bing didn't want to have anything to do with loan sharks. Moreover, before Xiao Lan's identity was exposed, she had always been a cash cow. How could he easily tell this secret to others?

Yuan Qi and Zhou Chang both felt relieved.

At this moment, the servant brought writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone.

Yuan Qi signaled with his eyes that He Xixian should draft a document as he had just said.

After congratulations were drafted, they were given to Yuan Qi.

Yuan Qi took a quick glance and turned around to hand it to Zhou Chang: "Master Xiao, take a look, is there anything wrong with it?"

Zhou Chang read it over and over again. There were many traditional Chinese characters, and she could guess most of them. Her mind was no clearer than the two people in front of her. "Thank you. This should be enough."

Xiao Bing's eyes also turned to the right. Seeing that he hadn't agreed yet, the other party had already written the document, he said: "Why do you think I will agree? I won't do it."

"Not doing it?" Yuan Qi sat back in his chair. "It's fine if we don't do it. We've saved five thousand taels."

"Aren't you afraid that I will tell others about her?" Xiao Bing stretched his neck and was about to yell.

"What?" Zhou Chang suddenly couldn't help but speak, "Just now, Xiao Lan's clothes and belongings have fallen on the mountain path. It's a steep slope, and he encountered robbers. He should have fallen into the river below and disappeared."

"Okay, okay, so this is what you are planning today," Xiao Bing guessed, but he was not in a hurry. He couldn't see Zhou Chang's face through the bamboo curtain, so he could only point at the curtain and curse, "Bitch, you want to play dead, but I won't let you. If you don't give me the money, I will follow you all the time. Are you afraid that you will run away?"

"Five thousand taels of silver are not enough? Do you want to force me to death before you give up?" Zhou Chang was in a state of panic. He spoke impulsively just now and forgot that his whereabouts had been exposed.

Now that the other party refuses to buy into her claims, she really has no other options.

Yuan Qi said leisurely: "No need to do that, let's discuss everything together."

Xiao Bing did all this just for money. He rolled his eyes and said, "You can ask me to sign and seal it. Ten thousand taels."

"Ten thousand taels?" Zhou Chang took a breath of cold air.

She didn't even know how to pay back the sky-high price of five thousand taels of silver, and now this scoundrel was asking for an even higher price.

Yuan Qi didn't seem to need to think too much and agreed immediately.

He Xi, who was standing by, suddenly whispered something into Yuan Qi's ear.

After hearing this, Yuan Qi thought about it again, then raised his head and said to Xiao Bing: "Five thousand taels is five thousand taels, otherwise, you should not leave this yard tonight. I don't think those two outside may agree with you."

"What do you mean?" Xiao Bing suddenly became alert.

"What do you mean?" Yuan Qi snorted coldly, "Either you sign the document, take the five thousand taels and leave, and disappear from Master Xiao's sight forever, or you won't be able to leave alive today. I'm afraid you are the only one in this world who knows Master Xiao's secret, right?"

"You dare." Xiao Bing said, turned around, opened the front door and was about to run out.

"Stop him." He Xi was also on guard.

Several big men outside the door heard the noise and immediately surrounded him, blocking Xiao Bing's way.

Xiao Bing was forced to retreat, but he still insisted: "I don't believe you really dare to kill people."

"You forced us to do this." Yuan Qi's voice did not change at all, as if he was saying something that was a matter of course.

"Five thousand taels. As long as you sign and seal it, you can take the bill of exchange immediately." He Xi directly held the bill of exchange and the receipt in front of Xiao Bing.

Xiao Bing was still unwilling: "Ten thousand taels, I will sign it immediately."

"Which is more worthwhile for us, five thousand taels or the life of a ruffian? At worst, we can take out three thousand taels to bribe the government office, which is enough." Yuan Qi's tone became more and more indifferent.

Xiao Bing had no way out. He knew this was the truth. He didn't even know the identity of the person in front of him, but even if he just looked at this manor, he could tell that he was a wealthy man. Even if he died here tonight, someone could spend some money and find a random excuse to settle the matter tomorrow.

"Okay, I'll sign." Xiao Bing gritted his teeth and reached out to grab the bill of exchange first.

He Xi took it back immediately: "Sign first and put your fingerprints on it."

As he spoke, he took out the cinnabar mud that he had prepared in advance and placed it on the chair beside him.

Yuan Qi was even more cautious and asked Zhou Chang: "Master Xiao, is his real name Xiao Bing?"

"Yes," Zhou Chang also hurriedly searched in Xiao Lan's vague memory, "He is the third child in the family. He is usually called Xiao San. He went to school for a few days when he was a child. His full name is Xiao Bing, that's right."

Xiao Bing leaned over, signed his name on the chair and put his thumb print on it.

"Press all ten fingers." He Xi supervised from the side.

Xiao Bing also did as he was told.

Afterwards, He Xixian took the document back to the bamboo curtain and handed it to Yuan Qi and

Yuan Qi didn't look at it any more and handed it to Zhou Chang.

Zhou Chang took it and carefully confirmed Xiao Bing's signature and the ten red fingerprints. He wondered if pressing fingerprints in ancient times was really useful.

He Xi handed the bill of exchange for five thousand taels to Xiao Bing.

Xiao Bing snatched it and looked at it again and again. After a long while, he looked up from the bill of exchange and said, "Is this from Longyu Bank?"

"The exchange is absolutely true." He Xi assured, "Otherwise you can stay in Longyu Bank and tell me about the place called Nanxian Bank."

Xiao Bing didn't doubt it too much. He took another deep look in the direction of the bamboo curtain, put the bill of exchange in his arms, and turned away.

He Xi followed behind, urging the people outside to send them out. "Keep them alive first, and we'll find other ways later;

Collect it first, and continue to look at the rest;"
