Chapter 224 223. Pay back the money
The old man greeted these people with more confidence in his tone. When some people saw this, their hearts moved, and they moved closer faster.
Seeing that the crowd was getting more and more crowded, Du Chuan quickly said loudly: "Everyone, don't worry, the money I owe you will be given to you today."
Du Chuan's words had no effect at all. What's the use? Basically no one even heard what he said. Everyone talked about their own difficulties.
The old man also kept apologizing.
No matter what, it was Du Qixi who borrowed the money this time, and it is only natural that people come to ask for the account.
So I can only talk happily.
In response, Du Chuan could only take the bag from the old man's arms, take out the money directly, and hold it high in the air.
"It all depends on me. This much money is enough to pay back the money." Du Chuan yelled.
There is no way, if you don’t yell, others won’t hear you at all.
Fortunately, his method was effective. After seeing so much money in Du Chuan's hand, everyone was stunned.
The old man has never seen so much money. The same is true for these people. They are ordinary people. It is not easy to support their own family now.
Even if you save money through frugality, you won’t be able to save much.
So when I saw so much money, I became somewhat quiet, and I quickly estimated how much it was.
After calming down the restless crowd, Du Chuan and the old man were able to walk into the courtyard.
After a little calculation, there are at least fifty or sixty people. This time Du Qixi really raised funds to start a business.
At this time, Du Qixi was still squatting under the eaves, looking downcast.
He didn't expect this kind of thing to happen. He originally wanted to make a big fortune, but the final result made him unable to accept it.
“Uncle.” Du Chuan walked over with a smile.
Du Qixi's eyes were dull, and it took him a while to react, "Why are you here?"
Then he saw the money in Du Chuan's hand, and he looked a little moved and a little ashamed.
Du Chuan smiled and said, "I'm just going to come over and have a look. I also want to talk about you, uncle."
Du Qixi lowered his head again, "I'm too stupid."< br>
In the past two days, he had been beaten and scolded by the old man and the old lady. His wife was so angry that she almost had a miscarriage, which made Du Qixi lose all his energy.
Du Chuan nodded and said: "It's really stupid. You didn't come to me when something like this happened. It's not like you don't know my situation, and you are prepared to die on your own?"
"And isn't it just that the business failed? This little thing has become so decadent. I really don't know what to say."
Du Chuan's words surprised Du Qixi. He really didn't want to find someone. Du Chuan, the biggest reason is that he forgot.
In the past few days, his heart had become completely panicked. His mind was completely blank and he could not think of anything at all.
"Forget it, you pay me back the money first, and we'll talk later." Du Chuan didn't say any more and threw the money directly into Du Qixi's arms.
Then I found the old lady, whispering comfort beside me.
At this time, the tears in the old woman's eyes were still flowing. This matter was so big that the old woman felt like the sky was falling.
"Nai, stop crying. This is not a big deal. It has been solved. Don't tear your eyes out from crying." Du Chuan said quickly.
While wiping the corners of her eyes with an old handkerchief, the old woman pulled Du Chuan and asked Du Qixi's question.
"How come your brother-in-law is so brave and dares to borrow so much money."
"Without you, his life would be over."
"Hey, sometimes I really want to die."
Du Chuan quickly comforted: "Nai, please don't say that. The good days have just begun. You will have many blessings in the future. "The old woman said: "I don't expect to be happy, I just want your uncle to grow up and become more mature, and stop being so unreliable."
"This time. It’s so much money.”
Du Chuan could only comfort her in a low voice to reassure her and stop thinking about such miscellaneous things.
In fact, Du Chuan didn't feel much about Du Qixi owing so much money this time.
If Du Qixi owed so much money from eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling, Du Chuan would be very angry even if he paid the money back.
But this is just a loss in business, and from his current point of view, it is understandable.
After all, Du Chuan is able to cover this amount of money.
And this is also in line with Du Qixi's character. He has never been a stingy person, and he has never been stingy in business. He went directly to the big one.
While Du Chuan was comforting the old lady, Du Qixi also started to take out the account book and pay back the money one by one.
Many people actually don’t have IOUs. After all, some of the borrowed money is only tens of dollars, or even hundreds of dollars.
Like borrowing this money, we are all acquaintances, so basically no IOUs will be written.
Nowadays, the relationship between people is relatively simple. If you borrow money, no one will recognize it even if there is no IOU.
When Du Qixi paid back the money, he somewhat regained his energy.
He actually almost collapsed this time. He didn't expect such a big thing to happen.
Fortunately, the matter is resolved now and the pressure is not so great.
Although these are Du Chuan's money and he will have to pay them back in the future, Du Qixi knows Du Chuan's situation and is not in a hurry to use the money, so he can take it slow.
Some of the people who got the money looked a little embarrassed in their eyes, even though they came to collect debts, which was a matter of course.
But after all, they are all acquaintances, and they all know the situation on Du Qixi's side, so they feel somewhat embarrassed.
These are also the simple thoughts of today’s people.
So after getting the money, I will explain my difficulties to some extent.
Du Qixi listened carefully to this, apologized sincerely, and expressed his understanding.
He is not an ignorant person and knows that he has done nothing wrong.
Many people were curious about Du Chuan and asked about Du Chuan's situation, but Du Qixi remained silent.
He also understands the principle of keeping wealth private.
But there are also people who know Du Chuan, because there are neighbors here. Du Chuan used to come here when nothing happened, so naturally they all know each other.
In this way, Du Qixi spent about two hours to pay back all the money, and everyone checked the accounts again to ensure that there was no mistake.
After everyone left, he came to Du Chuan and handed the remaining money to Du Chuan.
"Isn't there something wrong with this number? Isn't it almost fifteen thousand?" Du Chuan knew the approximate number just by glancing at it.
There are at least seven or eight thousand like this.
Du Qixi said: "There are still some people who haven't come."
"You have to pay back even if they don't come. In addition, you can keep the rest of the money for doing business next time. ." Du Chuan threw the money back again.
Du Qixi smiled bitterly and said: "If I don't do business, I am not good at doing business."
As he was about to hand over the money again, Du Chuan waved his hand, "No, let's do business." It can never be smooth sailing, there will always be some setbacks, just treat this time as gaining experience, and just pay attention next time.”
