The super son-in-law of the female president

Chapter 339 Then I told you

The little hair-combing man seemed very pleased when he heard this.

"Then I've said it, listen to me, listen carefully, don't move around, or don't blame Dad for spanking your ass!"

It is said that in the late Ming Dynasty, the largest pawnshop in Dongren Town was called Renxing Pawnshop, and the surname of the shopkeeper was Liu.

That evening, a customer came to the door of the pawn shop, lingered for a long time before walking in and asking for a pawn.Although the person was wearing sunglasses, Shopkeeper Liu recognized him right away: Be so good, it turned out to be Yuanwai Ma!

Why is Shopkeeper Liu so surprised?It turned out that just last month, the Ma family announced to the outside world that the head of the family, Ma Yuanwai, had died of a sudden illness and had a big funeral. Could it be that there is such a strange thing in this world that the dead come back to life?

Seeing this, the horse officer simply took off his sunglasses, smiled wryly before telling the whole story: a few days ago, he got news that Li Long, the bandit leader outside the city, was coming to the city to seek revenge.Ma Yuanwai had a relationship with Li Long in the early years, so he couldn't help being afraid.He heard that Li Long had a clear distinction between grievances and grievances, and would not trouble others, so he came up with a way to feign death, lying in a special coffin, hiding him in the cemetery, and having his family serve him secretly.

Li Long arrived as scheduled, but he really didn't embarrass others, he just took Ma Xin, the young master of the Ma family, away.He also said that the father's debt should be paid by the son. If the Ma family can collect 5 taels of silver to redeem the man within ten days, Ma Xin will be guaranteed to be unscathed. Otherwise, he will wait to collect the body of his young master.The Ma family couldn't come up with so much cash for a while, so they only had more than 3 taels of silver bills.Hearing the news from his family members outside the horse, the coffin board suddenly couldn't hold it down. Fortunately, there were a few valuable treasures "buried" with him.

After finishing speaking, Ma Yuanwai took out a satin package from his arms, and opened it carefully, shopkeeper Liu's eyes immediately widened.It was a jade statue of Sending the Son Guanyin, more than one foot long, and was carved from a whole piece of high-quality Hetian jade. It was obviously made by famous masters, and it was invaluable.

Ma Yuanwai said: "Do you think this object can be used for [-] taels?" Shopkeeper Liu nodded again and again, and Ma Lier wrote the pawn ticket, stating that the pawn should be redeemed within one month, and then took out the silver ticket and handed it to Ma Yuanwai.The horseman said his thanks and left in a hurry.

Half a month later, Ma Xin, the young master of the Ma family, came to redeem the pawn in person.Shopkeeper Liu greeted him with a smile, and reminded him to be on guard against bandits coming back.Ma Xin said that he had already discussed with his father and moved his family out of Tianjin while the bandits were retreating.

After exchanging greetings, Ma Xin was about to get the pawn ticket, but shopkeeper Liu suddenly changed his face: "Master Ma, the family is moving far away, and taking one more item on the road will be an extra burden. Not to mention that your old man died once, If some people find out that he is still alive, it will cause a lot of trouble. In my opinion, it is better to leave the things and I will give you another 1000 taels of silver as travel expenses, how about it?" After finishing speaking, he took out a bank note and handed it to him. To Mahin.

Ma Xin blushed with anger, pushed away the banknote, pointed at shopkeeper Liu's nose and cursed: "Your surname is Liu, you dare to take advantage of the fire to rob, I'm afraid it's easy for you to eat it, but hard to spit it out!"

Early the next morning, several officials rushed into the pawn shop, and the leader cupped his fists: "Shopkeeper Liu, I'm sorry, someone handed in the certificate at the county government, please go."

Shopkeeper Liu strolled into the lobby of the county government office. Seeing Ma Xin kneeling on one side, he kowtowed to the county magistrate and asked, "Master Qingtian, Xiaomin has always been law-abiding. Do you have anything to ask me?"

The county magistrate threw the pawn ticket at the feet of shopkeeper Liu, and shouted: "Bold and unreasonable, it is written clearly on this paper. It is less than a month away. They use the money to redeem the pawn. Why don't you give it to them?" ?”

"What you've heard is the Ma family's side story." Shopkeeper Liu calmly turned around and asked Ma Xin, "Look at the signer on this pawn ticket, is your old man?" Ma Xin nodded and admitted.

Shopkeeper Liu smiled "hehe": "But your old man passed away last month, and I went to see the excitement on the day of the funeral. The day when this pawn ticket was issued was the seventh day of this month. Could it be that he came back after death?"

Ma Xin blushed and couldn't speak.Seeing the situation, the county magistrate ordered his men to go to Ma's house to investigate. After a while, they received a report: Several neighbors testified that Ma Yuanwai had passed away last month.The county magistrate was so angry that he slapped the gavel, and shouted at Ma Xin: "Your father died a long time ago, how can a dead person go to pawn? Come and beat this troublesome man out!"

Ma Xin fled out with his head in his arms. Shopkeeper Liu stared at his distressed back, and sneered secretly: Huang-haired boy, you are still young to fight with the master!

After a few days, there was a sudden banditry in the city, and the merchants on the street said that bandits from outside the city had sneaked into the city.On this day, the Renxing pawn shop was about to close, and only one customer was still pawning a few worthless jewelry.At this moment, a few strong men broke into the door. Shopkeeper Liu saw that these people were not good, so he asked with a smile: "Masters, do you want to pawn or redeem the pawn?"

The leading man had a ferocious expression on his face, and when he heard this, he sneered, and the people around him immediately scolded: "You are blind, Mr. Li has a lot of silver, so why use it as an object?"

The man called "Mr. Li" said: "The shopkeeper, I will neither pawn nor redeem. I want to take care of you for a bigger deal. We have inquired about it, and you have received a good deal some time ago." Baby..." He stared at shopkeeper Liu closely, and while talking, he pulled out a gleaming dagger from his waist and played with it in his hand.

Shopkeeper Liu broke out in a cold sweat, so he had no choice but to take out the jade statue of Guanyin, which was pawned by Yuan Wai.Master Li suddenly stepped forward and grabbed him, shouting: "Where did this object come from? Tell me quickly, what is your relationship with that Ma?"

Shopkeeper Liu hurriedly said: "This was pawned here by Yuanwai Ma, and later it became a dead pawn. I don't know about other trivial matters."

Master Li sneered and said: "To tell you the truth, I am Li Long, the bandit leader wanted by the government. Do you know why I gnash my teeth when someone surnamed Ma is mentioned? In fact, the man surnamed Ma was a gangster in the early years. My Li family is a scholarly family. It was because he fell in love with this ancestral jade statue of Guanyin, who came to my house to kill people and sell goods, that forced me to go on the road of robbery. Today is God’s eyes, let this jade statue return. Original owner."

The customer who entered the door earlier was very calm in front of the spectators, but now he couldn't stay any longer and left quietly. Li Long's subordinates didn't take him seriously, and no one stopped him.

This Li Long snatched the jade statue and was about to leave. Shopkeeper Liu risked his life, grabbed his trouser legs and shouted, "Is there any way to take away such a treasure just because of your words?"

Li Long kicked him over: "I'll let you figure it out today, or I will be a bully and ruin my reputation!" He ordered his men to bring a basin of water, and then put the jade statue of Guanyin in the water , Immediately reflected on the surface of the water are the words "long-lasting sons and heirs".Shopkeeper Liu didn't expect the jade statue to have such a wonderful feature, and was stunned for a while.

Li Long said triumphantly: "These four characters are engraved in the crook of Guanyin's arm, and they can hardly be seen at ordinary times. They can only be reflected by the water. Why, didn't the surname Ma tell you?" He added: " If you want to talk about the law of the king, we men will accompany you to the government. But the man named Ma is a gangster, and you are an accomplice if you sell his stolen goods. In the end, no one is innocent. Why, do you want to go?" See Shopkeeper Liu collapsed on the ground without making a sound, he sneered twice, and led his men to rush out the door.

Unexpectedly, before Li Long and his gang had gone far, they were surrounded by a group of masked men holding short knives. The leader was not masked, but was actually the customer just now.He walked up to Li Long and said, "Master Li, I heard that the government has offered you a very high bonus and reward. Do you think I should take you to the government?"

Li Long completely lost the prestige just now, and said with a smile: "Don't get me wrong, I am a fake thief, I just played a show for the shopkeeper Liu, but this thing is really my master's horseman, you see ..."

The customer laughed and said: "Of course I know you are a fake thief, because I am the real Li Long. But that Liu is really not a thing, even though you are pretending to be my name, I am not angry. "

Fake Li Long breathed a sigh of relief, rolled his eyes and said: "My master once said that he was the one who was sorry for you, Master Li, so he is willing to give you this treasure. Home."

He was about to offer his son Guanyin with both hands, but the real Li Long waved his hands: "I have a bit of a feud with the surnamed Ma, but it is not as bitter and bitter as you made it up. I have already avenged my revenge, and this object is the same as It doesn't matter to me, let's return it to the original owner." After speaking, he beckoned his subordinates to leave.

This matter seems to be the case, but there is no impenetrable wall in the world, the news spread somehow, and the business of Renxing Pawn Shop plummeted.Not long after, shopkeeper Liu gave the pawnshop to someone else, and went back to his hometown in despair.
