Farming and reading family

Chapter 821 Raising Money

He is the boss, he has to take responsibility if something goes wrong and cannot let others see him panicking.

Chen Hanyue immediately went to push her mother.

Yang tightly grasped Chen Qing's arm: "Son, our son..."

"Don't worry." Chen Qing comforted.

Only after hearing what Chen Qing said did Yang let go of Chen Qing's hand.

"Brother." Chen Ke saw that his elder brother seemed to have found his backbone.

"Where is the ransom letter?" Chen Qing looked at his father.

He had a vague feeling that this matter was closely related to Chen Fancai's family.

Their family behaved very abnormally when they returned.

“Here, here…” Chen Fansheng took it out hurriedly.

Chen Qing took the ransom letter and took a look at it. The handwriting was illegible and there were typos.

After reading the letter, he raised his eyes to look at Chen Fancai, and his gaze met Chen Fancai's. Chen Fancai subconsciously blinked.

"Uncle, tell me what happened at that time." Chen Qing handed the blackmail letter to Chen Ke.

"I fainted at the time..." Chen Fan said awkwardly, "Your father..."

"But it was you who asked my father to take the children out, and you chose the place to eat, so you should know better." Gao E said directly.

Chen Qing and Chen Ke both looked at Chen Fancai.

"What do you mean by this?" Chen Baolai was furious. "My father meant well. Instead of raising money to save people, you are questioning my father."

"Yes." Song said aggrievedly, "How much money did we spend on you when we came back? How could you do such a thing?"

"We're just asking about the situation. What do you mean by that?" Gao E didn't care whether Chen Ke and the others had face or not. There were some things men shouldn't ask. "Since it's just a dinner, what's there to be ashamed of?"

"Brother?" Chen Fan looked at his elder brother.

Chen Fansheng was filled with regret at the moment: "It was me who suggested taking the children to have a meal with your second uncle's family."

Gao E sneered in her heart. Even if it was Chen Fansheng who said it, it was probably Chen Fancai who made all kinds of crazy hints to make Chen Fansheng jump in on his own initiative.

Chen Fancai spread his hands in grievance: "I was also worried about the child being kidnapped. He is the apple of our Chen family's eye."

When Chen Fansheng heard what Chen Fancai said, he hurriedly said, "Raise money quickly. If anything goes wrong, I will be sorry to our Chen family's ancestors."

Gao E started to complain wildly in his heart again. He couldn't even remember his own grandfather, so where was the ancestors?

Chen Qing looked at Chen Ke, then at Gao E: "Let's go to your house and discuss it."

Chen Qing immediately took Chen Ke and Gao E away.

As soon as Gao E entered the room, she said, "This matter must be related to Chen Fancai's family."

Chen Qing did not deny it: "No matter what, let's get the money together first."

"Five thousand taels..." Chen Ke was embarrassed.

"I'll discuss it with Chen Tao." Gao E agreed.

No one would doubt her words. Chen Tao's family was the richest in He County, so five thousand taels of silver would definitely be no problem.

"We will definitely pay you back later." Chen Qing promised.

"Then..." Gao E looked at the sky and said, "Let's not waste any time and go to He County now."

"Okay." Chen Qing also knew that if they delayed for too long, the children might be in danger. "Take Luo Dagang and the others with us." Chen Qing suddenly said.

"The ransom letter only allows our dad to deliver the money. What if more people go and they change their minds?" Chen Ke worried.

"Then let's go first. I'll let Luo Dagang and the others hide. After we successfully rescue Zheng Yan and the others, we'll capture those people." Gao E suggested.

"Okay." Chen Qing nodded. "Then let's go to He County first and discuss the details of the journey later."

They immediately went to call their father and Chen Fancai's family.

"You've raised the money so quickly?" Chen Fan wondered if they asked for too little.

"My second brother's wife went to He County to borrow it." Chen Qing took a quick look at Chen Fancai.

Chen Fan lowered his eyes and guessed that Gao was going back to her parents' home to borrow money.

"What are you waiting for? Let's go." Chen Fansheng said immediately.

They immediately harnessed their carriage and headed for He County.

Chen Fansheng sat in the carriage of Chen Fancai's family. No one knew what he was thinking. His eyes were wide open and he said nothing.

Chen Fancai asked uncertainly, "Brother, that's five thousand taels. Can the second son's wife easily borrow it?"

Chen Fansheng was stunned for a moment before he became excited: "How could I forget about the richest man, Chen?"

"Richest Man Chen?" Chen Fancai was puzzled. "What does this have to do with our family?"

"There is only one son left in the family of the richest man Chen. He is the apprentice of the second son's wife and often lives in her house." Chen Fansheng explained.

"Brother, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Chen Fancai became a little excited.

The son of the richest man.

That's more than five thousand taels.

If he had known this, he would have wanted more.

Chen Fansheng was disappointed. "The second son is so stubborn. He listens to his wife in everything. His wife won't let him touch a single cent of the Chen family. I guess he only borrowed money because he was in trouble."

"Among the kidnapped children..." Chen Fan suppressed his excitement.

"There's no Chen Tao." Chen Fansheng breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that if Chen Tao was also kidnapped, they would have no place to borrow money.

Chen Fan was disappointed: "Fortunately, fortunately."

Luo Dagang was driving the car, Chen Qing and Chen Ke were discussing reporting to the police, and Gao E sat aside without saying a word.

She was thinking about this matter over and over again, and she planned to take Chen Fancai to Chen's house.

Given Chen Fancai's greedy nature, if he knew that she was the master of the richest man in He County, he would probably ask for a huge sum of money.

Then he will die more completely.

When they arrived in He County, the city gate was closed. Gao E paid some money and asked Chen Tao to pick them up.

"Master." Chen Tao hurriedly got off the carriage at the city gate. "What's the urgent matter at this late hour?"

"Zhengyan and the others were kidnapped by the kidnappers, who demanded five thousand taels of silver." Gao E said directly.

"What?" Chen Tao was shocked. "Master, don't panic. I'll go back and get the money for you."

Chen Fancai's blood boiled as he listened from behind. Five thousand taels of silver was so easy to take?

"I'll go with you." Gao E bought time for Chen Qing and the others to report to the police.

"Okay." Chen Tao took them home.

Chen Qing secretly went to report to the police.

When Cao Geng heard that it was a member of the Chen family who was kidnapped, he took it very seriously and immediately ordered the yamen runners to follow behind as Chen Qing suggested.

Chen Tao gave Gao E five thousand taels of silver and said to her in front of everyone: "I will go with my master."

"What are you going to do? We can only wait outside. If there are too many people, it will be troublesome if the kidnappers change their minds." Gao E said helplessly.

Chen Tao was a little anxious: "But..."

"Okay, just wait at home. We will tell you the first time we redeem Zhengyan and the others." Gao E said directly.

"Okay." Chen Tao nodded.

The group left Chen's house.

When he got on the carriage, Chen Fan looked back at the gate of the Chen family, his eyes full of greed.

In a dilapidated temple about ten miles away from He County, Zhong Er and Ma Ben stood in the room with their hands on their hips, looking at a group of children who were still sleeping in front of them.

"Is the medicine too strong? Will there be any problems?" Ma Ben was worried.
