Chapter 340 The creditor has come to collect the debt
"Yes, just like this, take a breath, almost die but not dead yet."
"City Lord Zheng said that the testimonies of such people cannot be used as evidence, but they are still alive. It will take a lot of money to cure them."
"It depends on whether the little bastard named Zhou will treat them. If he does, it will cost money. If he doesn't, it will chill the hearts of the uninjured guards."
Zhou Shuyi: "..."
His face was very ugly. He glanced at the guards guarding him and found that their faces were also very ugly.
Because they had already seen many seriously injured guards falling to the ground.
Zhou Shuyi said in a deep voice: "You all come together and kill that mother and daughter!"
"Yes!" the guard next to him responded, waving his sword and slashing at Lin Xiuyan and Qu Shuangyue.
But before they got close, Lin Xiuyan used the crossbow in her hand to shoot at them.
The arrow hits the vital point, but it will not cause death in a short time.
There are also guards hiding in the secret guard who want to shoot them.
Qu Shuangyue's reaction was much faster than theirs, and she cut off the bows and arrows with her sword.
Lin Xiuyan quickly picked up the crossbow and shot the guard hiding in the secret guard directly.
Zhou Shuyi's face turned pale when he saw this scene.
Although he had heard before that Lin Xiuyan and Ye Junfei killed half of the Xuanzi camp, he felt that Ye Junfei must have done it and had nothing to do with Lin Xiuyan.
But when he saw the strange weapon in her hand, he knew he was wrong.
He turned around and wanted to escape, but how could Qu Shuangyue give him a chance to escape, and kicked him to the ground with a flying kick.
He struggled to get up, but Qu Shuangyue had already stepped on his back and put a big knife on Zhou Shuyi's neck.
Her voice was cold and ruthless: "How dare you run away, little bastard! Let me see if I don't break your legs!"
After she finished speaking, she put down her foot on his back, stepped back a little, and then stomped heavily on his calf.
In an instant, Zhou Shuyi's screams spread throughout the Zhou Mansion.
Lin Xiuyan felt her legs hurt when she heard that sound. After all, Qu Shuangyue had broken her legs like this before.
She coughed slightly at this time and said to Zhou Shuyi with a smile: "Don't be afraid, Mr. Zhou, we are just here to pay you back."
"Your bodyguard is a little too enthusiastic. When he sees my mother and me, he wants to spar with us."
"My mother likes such polite people the most, so she knocked them all down. Are you very happy?"
Zhou Shuyi had fought against Lin Xiuyan twice before, but both times combined were not as shocking as this one.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Stop pretending, I heard everything you just said!"
"Lin Xiuyan, even though you are the Crown Princess, you cannot enter my house to commit murder. City Lord Zheng will bring someone to rescue me right away!"
Lin Xiuyan smiled and said: "Look at what you said, we were just fighting and accidentally hurt someone, so it can't be considered a murder."
"Besides, my mother and I are just two weak women, how can we commit murder?"
Zhou Shuyi: "..."
He felt that she was really shameless. How could she have the nerve to say that she was a weak woman?
But when he remembered that more than half of his dozens of guards were dead or injured, he felt very complicated.
Qu Shuangyue said a little irritably at the side: "Yan'er, why are you talking to him so much?"
"This stupid bastard actually dares to assassinate you in the street. He is just looking for you!"
"Stand aside and let me chop off his dog's head!"
After she finished speaking, she raised the sword in her hand.
Zhou Shuyi was so frightened that he screamed: "If I die, no one will be able to pay my debts!"
When Qu Shuangyue heard this, the knife in her hand slowly dropped: "You are admitting that you owe me money."
Zhou Shuyi: "..."
He had asked the shopkeepers below in the past two days, and no one knew that Zhou Lingshan owed the Lin Mansion money when he was still alive.
He guessed that those IOUs were all fake, and Qu Shuangyue's words confirmed his guess.
Zhou Shuyi gritted his teeth and said, "There is indeed something wrong with those IOUs!"
Qu Shuangyue said coldly: "Who said there is something wrong with those IOUs? Which words on them were not written by your old bastard?"
"You want to default on your debt, right? Then I won't be polite!"
After she finished speaking, she raised the sword again.
Zhou Shuyi is really going crazy this time.
He shouted: "I'll pay it back, I'll pay it back!"
Lin Xiuyan smiled and said: "Repaying debts is a matter of course. You don't need to show such an expression."
She stretched out her hand to pull Qu Shuangyue away, and then helped Zhou Shuyi up to sit up.
She said very gently: "I have brought all these IOUs. Are you going to pay them all today, or pay them in batches?"
Anyway, Ye Qingwan is good at imitating handwriting and can constantly forge fake handwriting records.
She guarantees that he will never be done with it in this lifetime!
Zhou Shuyi trembled as he looked at the writing on it, his heart bleeding.
Because the amount on each order is not small, the Zhou family will have to bleed heavily every time it is repaid.
Zhou Shuyi took a deep breath and said, "I'll pay it back in batches!"
Lin Xiuyan liked this answer and smiled: "Okay, I am a very reasonable creditor. What do you want to pay back first?"
Zhou Shuyi looked at her with resentful eyes and said, "I'll return the top one first."
Lin Xiuyan's expression showed a bit of dissatisfaction: "Is this just the top one? That's too little."
"Mr. Zhou, you can't treat me like this just because I'm easy to talk to!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Qu Shuangyue punched Zhou Shuyi in the stomach.
Zhou Shuyi: “!!!!!!”
Even if the Zhou family violently collects debts, it is not as unreasonable as this mother and daughter!
Lin Xiuyan looked at him and asked: "Master Zhou, if you think about it again, how many IOUs would you like to pay back today?"
When Ye Qingwan wrote a fake IOU before, the two of them had discussed it and both felt that an IOU of about 50,000 taels of silver was most appropriate.
Because this amount is more in line with the denomination that a wealthy family like Zhou Mansion can borrow.
Moreover, this amount is highly mobile and easy to recover.
Zhou Shuyi could only say at this time: "Then I will return ten of them first."
Lin Xiuyan praised him: "Although I am not very satisfied with this amount, it also shows your sincerity."
"Mr. Zhou, you are quite a nice person. I must praise you for this."
Zhou Shuyi didn't want Lin Xiuyan's praise at all, so he asked someone to bring over some banknotes and land deeds, and he could barely pay back ten IOUs.
Lin Xiuyan saw those things and said with a smile: "Although this means that our Lin Mansion will suffer a little loss."
"But who made Zhou Mansion have a close relationship with Pingnan Prince Mansion? We are acquaintances, so I have to give you a little discount."
After she finished speaking, she gave Zhou Shuyi ten IOUs and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhou, a good man will have a safe life."
