"You, you bear it for me?" Boss Song asked doubtfully, "How can you bear it for me?"

"It's still the same sentence, give me the restaurant, and I'll take care of everything." Xue Poye said in a low voice, "You also know that there are only two days left for this restaurant. If you don't sell it today, you can sell it if you want to sell it then." I can’t sell it anymore, it’s hard to do business in this area, and with your example, no one will dare to accept it except for a fool like me!”

Boss Song sighed and sat on the chair to meditate. The woman suddenly came over with tea, obviously heard what he said just now, and served the tea to the two of them, then said very sadly: "Master, you, you still sold it. Let’s talk about the building. If this building isn’t for sale, we won’t be able to overcome this hurdle.”

Boss Song looked at Xue Poye and finally said, "What's your surname?"

"Xue Poye!"

"Brother Xue, how much money are you going to pay?" Boss Song finally compromised. Under such a severe situation, he really didn't have many choices.

Xue Poye took a sip of tea, feeling very comfortable: "Boss Song, I would like to ask, how much money did you spend to buy this shop?"

Boss Song hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Seven hundred taels!"

Xue Poye smiled lightly, shit, if you can say seven hundred taels, the real amount is naturally lower, but he nodded and said: "That's easy to say." After a pause, he said word by word: "I will pay two hundred taels." two!"

Boss Song was taken aback, and Xiao Pinshi was also a little nervous. Although the price of the store in this area is very low, two hundred taels of silver is too low for such a big restaurant.

Xiao Pinshi's mouth moved: "Brother, you...!"

Xue Poye said leisurely: "Boss Song heard it clearly, Xue is willing to offer two hundred taels of silver to buy this restaurant of yours!"

Boss Song shook his head like a rattle, "No, no, no, no, two hundred taels of silver will sell my shop. This will not even pay off my debts. Are you kidding me!"

"Do you think I'm joking?" Xue Poye said seriously: "I said before, I will take care of your affairs, and I will pay back the money you owe outside. I will give you two hundred taels of silver, and you keep it yourself. I guarantee you out of this restaurant!"

Xiao Pinshi was taken aback, took out two hundred taels of silver, and then repaid the debt on his behalf, which added up to six or seven hundred taels, where did the elder brother get so much silver? Is it possible to be stupid

Boss Song was obviously tempted, and couldn't help showing joy on his face, but he still said: "Boss Xue... Boss Xue, I spent seven hundred taels for this restaurant at the beginning, and all the money owed was later on for the decoration and purchase of tables, chairs and utensils. , there are five hundred taels in total, and the total is one thousand two hundred taels, this restaurant is worth one thousand two hundred taels, and you only took out two hundred taels, it seems a little unreasonable!" Although Xue Poye was dressed in ordinary clothes, he spoke loudly. Boss Song started calling him "Boss Xue".

"The management is poor and the deficit is huge. Boss Song won't blame all these on me, right? I don't think anyone will pay more than four hundred taels of silver for adding tables, chairs and utensils to your restaurant. We all know that this place has a good business. Who would dare to come here to seek death?" Xue Poye said with a sly smile, "The rich and the wealthy will naturally choose those prosperous locations. I guess not many people think about such deserted and remote places?"

Boss Song felt a "squeak" in his heart, breaking out in a cold sweat.

In fact, he had already found someone to sell the restaurant, but the business in this place was so bad that no one was willing to buy it. Even if there was, it would be a robbery, and the money paid would make people vomit blood.

Although Xue Poye said that he was only willing to pay two hundred taels of silver today, but including the debts, it was equivalent to spending seven hundred taels, which can be said to be an extremely high price.

Boss Song was already disheartened before. Although there was a restaurant in his hand, the creditor forced him to come to him, but he didn't have a few taels of silver in his hands. The clerks ran away in a hurry. Previously, they only hoped to repay the debt and get out quickly. Unexpectedly, today A great savior came unexpectedly, and there was still hope to leave with two hundred taels of silver in his pocket. His spirit suddenly rose, but he still showed a look of embarrassment on the surface: "Here, Boss Xue, this restaurant is my painstaking effort. If it weren't for this difficulty, I really can't bear to make a move, now that you sincerely want to take it, then give me some more!"

Xue Poye smiled coldly: "One hundred and ninety taels!"

"What?" Boss Song didn't understand.

"If you negotiate the price once, I'll reduce it by ten taels. Haha, Xue has done his best, so don't push yourself!" Xue Poye sipped his tea, very leisurely.

"No, two hundred taels!"

"One hundred and eighty taels!"

Boss Song was in a cold sweat, Grandma’s, two sentences dropped twenty taels, and he couldn’t go on any longer. He slapped the table and said, “The deal is a deal, as evidenced by evidence. The cash is one hundred and eighty taels, plus I will pay back four hundred taels.” Eighty-six taels of silver, this restaurant is yours!"

Xue Poye stood up slowly, and said with a smile: "Boss Song is happy, if you don't mind, let's make a deal now!"

At that moment, the two parties established a written document, which read, "Song Qian and Xue Poye agreed in writing that Xue Poye would pay one hundred and eighty taels of silver in cash, and repay another four hundred and eighty-six taels of silver owed to Song Qian, totaling six hundred and sixty taels." Sixteen taels, buy a restaurant under Song Qian's name, and the two parties will establish a letter as evidence, and there will be no regrets in life or death!" In duplicate, both of them pressed their fingerprints.

Xiao Pinshi looked on in surprise and worry.

Unexpectedly, the restaurant was really taken down. It was like a dream, running around for food and clothing all day long. Never thought that there would be today. But he was very worried, how could he have the money to repay the foreign debt of more than four hundred taels of silver? Big brother Xue couldn't be impulsive and left the restaurant in a fever, right? Things after that are a big problem.

After the paperwork was signed, Xue Poye was about to take out the banknote, when Boss Song hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Boss Xue, don't be in a hurry to get the money, things have to be slowed down!"

Xue Poye frowned and asked, "Could Boss Song have changed his mind?"

Song Qian hurriedly shook her head and smiled, "Boss Xue misunderstood, it's written in black and white, no matter how virtuous Song is, he won't regret it!"

"Then why take it easy?" Xue Poye felt a little strange.

A trace of cunning flashed across Song Qian's face, and she walked slowly to the window, staring quietly at the bottom, where there were several figures walking back and forth, and said softly: "After you send me out, you will give me the silver again. I will also give you the deed."

Xue Poye immediately understood that this guy was obviously afraid that after handing over the deed, those debt collectors would still put the debt on him, and if Xue Poye didn't return the deed at that time, the gain would outweigh the loss.

Xue Poye chuckled a few times, and said loudly: "Boss Song, since Xue has told you to go out, he will naturally let you leave in an upright manner, without sneaking around. You come forward and let those creditors come here now, the three of us Opposite the hall, explain the matter clearly."

Song Qian's face showed a nervous look, and his voice was a little soft: "Let... let them come over?"

Xue Poye nodded, looking very relaxed: "Since I want to repay the debt on your behalf, you have to make it clear to them in person, so that I can recognize my creditor!"

Song Qian hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Wait!" He quickly went downstairs.

After a while, Song Qian said loudly: "Call all your shopkeepers and let them come to get the money!"

There was a lot of noise below. Hearing the sound of the stairs, Song Qian had already returned, and said nervously: "I told them, it shouldn't be too long! It's already noon, Boss Xue sat down with this brother, we Go get some side dishes with my wife, and have a few drinks at noon!" The trouble seemed to be resolved, and Song Qian was quite excited.

Xue Poye took the opportunity to inspect the restaurant, and found that there was a yard behind the restaurant, with a well on the left, a large kitchen next to the well, and a row of houses on the right, about five or six, which seemed like a place to live.

There is a big tree growing in the courtyard, the trunk is extremely thick, and the branches are luxuriant. Under the tree is a good place to enjoy the shade.

Several people dined together at noon. Although there were not many dishes, they were very delicious. Xiao Pinshi ate with relish and was very comfortable. Xue Poye just talked about some digressions with Song Qian. , Both of them smiled knowingly and stopped talking.

Just after lunch, I heard the neighing of horses from the avenue outside the restaurant. The sound was loud and clear, resounding all around.
