After the marriage was broken off, the husband's family regretted it
Chapter 383: 1 Boycott
Later, Luo Jiang was dragged out of the gambling house by Li Peng.
As soon as he left the gambling house, Luo Jiang, a grown man, started crying loudly.
Li Peng sighed as he watched, "Brother, I told you before that you should stop when you win fifty taels, but you were too careless. You insisted on continuing to gamble, and now you've lost."
"What do you say we should do now? We can't even pull you out. If I hadn't risked my life to pull you out, you would still be gambling in there. What should we do now? You owe them 200 taels of silver. You'd better go back and find your mother to find a solution."
"If you can't pay it back, you will be beaten. This is considered a minor punishment. In serious cases, your limbs will be broken."
When Luo Jiang was in the county town, he had heard that people who owed money to gamblers would be beaten badly, and he had also seen with his own eyes a middle-aged man whose hands and feet were broken.
They all crawled, leaving a trail of blood on the ground.
Luo Jiang was frightened at the thought and ran back home immediately.
When Li Peng saw this scene, he smiled imperceptibly.
When Luo Jiang returned home, he felt completely limp and collapsed on a chair in the living room.
Lihua was so frightened when she saw her son coming back that she thought something big had happened.
"Son, what's wrong with you?"
Luo Jiang looked at his mother, who was crying all the time, and dared not say anything.
"Mother, I went to the gambling house originally to make some money, and I did make fifty taels at the beginning, but I was too ambitious. I wanted to make more, and ended up gambling too much, and I lost everything."
Later, when he was really out of money, he had to borrow money from the gambling house.
Lihua's hands were shaking with anger.
"Tell me, how much silver did you borrow?"
"Two hundred taels of silver, mother, two hundred taels."
When she was in the county town before, Lihua didn't even care about the 200 taels of silver and spent it all at will, but things are different now.
Now there is no money, and both mother and daughter are very poor. The only money they have is the 45 taels of silver that Luo Jiang brought back yesterday, which is all the family’s belongings.
"Didn't mother tell you not to gamble anymore? Why didn't you listen to her? Now you owe 200 taels of silver. It's so easy to get the money in the gambling house."
"When you were in the county before, you saw the end result of owing money to the gambling house. Don't you know it? My son, where do you want me to get the 200 taels?"
"Mom, didn't I give you 45 taels yesterday? And didn't you say before that you had some silver in the city?"
After Luo Jiang finished speaking, he lowered his head, not daring to look Lihua in the eye.
Lihua looked at her son helplessly and felt like she had aged ten years.
Since the clothing city opened in Yuntao, many people have been coming to the city in an endless stream.
Anyone who wants to buy clothes comes to the clothing mall. The clothes there are not only beautiful in style and variety, but also very special in fabric. The colors are also very complete, with many colors that cannot be seen outside.
There are a lot of clothes for men, women, young and old, and people who go shopping in the clothing mall are quite satisfied.
"Mr. Wang, you have to think of a solution. If things continue like this, we will run out of clothes and all of us will go bankrupt. We are all tied to the same rope now. We have to think of a solution."
Old Wang sighed, "What can I do? I heard that the owner of this clothing store has a relationship with the governor's daughter. When the store opened on the day, didn't you see that the governor's wife was there, as well as some other wives of officials?"
"He has a backer, what can I do? How dare I mess with those officials?"
Everyone sighed.
"This is not a solution, otherwise we will really go bankrupt. The century-old family business cannot be destroyed in my hands."
"I have an idea, do you think it will work?"
"Manager Li, please speak quickly."
"I took a look at the clothes there. Although there are clothes for men, women, and children, there are actually very few styles for men and the elderly."
"There aren't many types, but we don't have the fabrics. We'll send someone to find out who provides the fabrics, and then we can buy them in."
"Then we just imitate them. We make whatever style of clothes they make. If the quality of the fabrics is lower, we just sell them at a lower price."
"The clothes there are not cheap. There are not so many rich people there. She serves high-end customers, and we serve mid- and low-end customers. Since our customer groups are different, we can make money from different people, right?"
Old Wang also thought this was a good idea. "Manager Li, your idea is good. We will sell to those who cannot afford it. We will win by quantity. But I have checked the cloth supplier of Taotao Clothing City, but I still can't find it."
"But we sent someone to inquire about it, and it seems that the cloth was produced by their boss himself. Their boss has a workshop."
Shopkeeper Li also said, "Mr. Wang, Shopkeeper Yun does have a workshop in their village. Because of her village, villagers in the surrounding area now have jobs and their lives are better than those of ordinary people in the town."
"And if I heard it correctly, she is the supplier behind the supermarket in the city and the jewelry store as well."
"My God, how much money does she make? I dare not even think about it. These two shops are now in full swing in the city. Business is booming. There is no one in the city who doesn't know about these two shops."
Shopkeeper Li said even more mysteriously, "You probably never imagined that the boss behind them is actually a woman, a peasant woman. A peasant woman born in the mud, but she is very powerful."
Now everyone was even more shocked, and they couldn't close their mouths in surprise.
"Then let's just settle this matter. Let's all work together and stop fighting among ourselves. Now is not the time to fight among ourselves. We must all be united in facing the outside world."
"Don't worry, Mr. Wang, we are now in a desperate situation."
Yun Tao didn't know that the clothing store she opened had taken away many people's cake and harmed many people's interests, and now she is still counting money at home.
Li Wanjun was looking at the amount of money on the account in the clothing store, and she was so excited. "Erniu, look, I can't even imagine how much this turnover is. It's been so long since we closed, but the business is still so good every day."
"Yes. The workers are working overtime to rush the production. We can't do anything about it. It's mainly because we're just starting out. Mom is also planning to make more and sell them wholesale to others in the future. This way, our business can grow bigger and stronger."
"Really? I have this plan too, but I am too embarrassed to tell mom, for fear that she will think I have extra thoughts."
"Wanjun, if you have any ideas, tell me. I won't say anything to you. The bigger the business, the more money we make, and we will get more in the future."
Li Wanjun thought about it and realized that this was the truth. Such a huge fortune would have to be divided in the future.
