Chapter 252: Control
Finally, Hou Jie pretended to compromise and said reluctantly:
"Oh! Never mind! As long as you pay me, I can give you a letter of forgiveness."
"But what if I really want you to go to jail? You're just not thinking straight!"
Everyone was very angry when they saw Hou Jie was so reluctant, but there was nothing they could do as they had let the other party hold the upper hand!
Everyone suppressed their anger and directed the issue to the letter of understanding, but when they thought of the huge amount of money, their expressions fell again.
In an era when each person's monthly salary was only 2.30 yuan, 6000 yuan was an astronomical figure.
The third aunt begged, "Chunsheng! Your third aunt's family is in financial difficulty and doesn't have that much money. How about you be more flexible?"
The Xu family's wife also kept begging, "Yes, yes! Chunsheng, everyone knows that you are a good boy, just help everyone! Your uncle Xu is still in the police station! Let them out first, and we will discuss it."
"Yeah! You ask them to come out first and then we can discuss it, okay?"
Others began to persuade him.
Hou Jie didn't indulge them. The tougher he was, the easier it would be to control them.
"Haha!! If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place. Get lost."
Just as they were about to push the crowd away and squeeze out, the quick-witted daughter-in-law of the Xu family immediately turned her attention to her godmother.
"Auntie! Please help persuade your godson. Old Yi is still in police station! After all, you have been married to him for so many years. Although you are divorced, you should give him a favor. Please help him say a few good words for the sake of our friendship."
"Yes, yes, you can also help persuade her. Aren't you very familiar with her?"
Unable to bear the pestering, the godmother turned her gaze to Hou Jie and looked at him eagerly.
Hou Jie looked at his godmother helplessly, knowing that she was soft-hearted and would definitely help.
"Okay, but I have two conditions. If you don't agree to one of them, there's no point in talking about it."
The Xu family's daughter-in-law was the most alert. She took over the conversation: "Chunsheng, just speak up. As long as we can do it, we will definitely do our best."
Hou Jie nodded with satisfaction. He had already made up his mind. He wanted to take this opportunity to make these people bleed more and squeeze as much wealth from them as possible.
"First of all, the two thousand yuan compensation cannot be less than a cent. As for the other money, you can write an IOU first, but you must pay back at least three or five yuan a month. You must not default and must pay it back on time every month."
When everyone heard this, they felt that they only needed to repay three or five yuan per month, which would not put too much pressure on their lives, so they all expressed their agreement.
Hou Jie then added: "Secondly, if you dare to anger me again, I will tear up the agreement without hesitation. At that time, you must pay off all your debts immediately, otherwise you will have to go to jail! Of course, if I am in a good mood, I may consider giving you an appropriate reduction in the repayment amount."
When everyone heard the conditions proposed by Hou Jie, their eyes suddenly lit up, but at the same time they also understood that they could never offend him easily again.
Someone whispered, "From now on, he will be the prince of the courtyard, and no one will dare to offend him."
Another person said, "What do you know! Chunsheng just wants to live out his life as a rich young master together. As long as we take good care of him, maybe we won't have to pay him back."
Everyone was in a state of confusion, and after some hesitation, they finally agreed. After all, who made the bad guys in the yard? Their children's lives were in the hands of others, so they had no choice but to accept it.
Xu Fugui's wife was the first to express her opinion: "Okay, Chunsheng, my family agrees to your conditions."
The third aunt also said: "My Yan family also agrees, you should write the letter of innocence quickly!"
Other neighbors also agreed. Even his godmother's family was not spared, and he took the money anyway, but when no one was paying attention, he secretly winked at her.
Seeing that the matter was settled, Hou Jie began to write the letter of understanding and the contract, talking as he wrote.
"I just heard from you that the Jia family is going to have a blind date tomorrow?"
An aunt next door to the Jia family said, "Yes! I know about this. Jia Zhang has boasted a lot about this. I heard it was from Changping. What is the name of Qinjia Village? Qin? Ru."
Hou Jie's eyes fixed. Isn't that Qin Huairu's village?
"Qin Huairu?"
"Hey! Yes, that's Qin Huairu."
Hou Jie got this important news and had a bad idea.
"The Jia family has offended me badly this time. Whoever can ruin the Jia family's blind date tomorrow will have his or her debt reduced or forgiven according to the severity of the disruption."
The aunt hesitated and refused in a timid manner, "Chunsheng, I would like to help you, but as the old saying goes, it is better to destroy a temple than to destroy a marriage. Besides, Jia Zhang is too difficult to deal with. I dare not do it."
"Yes! We don't dare to offend the Jia family."
"I know that Jia Zhang is not easy to mess with. I will be the first to come forward, and you can just help me on the side. Can you do that?"
Hearing Hou Jie say this, she felt relieved and a happy expression appeared on her face.
"Okay, that's fine, as long as I'm not the main attacker."
Several people waiting nearby also said, "Can I help too? I'm willing to help too. Jia Zhang is so abominable."
"Of course, the more people, the better. I will reduce the debt owed to anyone who helps me, at least 10 yuan!"
When everyone heard the answer they wanted, they all nodded happily.
The painting style suddenly changed and he began to praise Hou Jie.
"Chunsheng, let's talk about it! You are such a nice person!"
Being suddenly given the good guy card, Hou Jie looked at these rare animals speechlessly.
In this life, the Jia family will never marry Qin Huairu again. Anyway, his reputation outside is that of a bad person, and it can't be any worse.
After Qin Huairu married into the Jia family, even when she was 8.9 or months pregnant, she still washed clothes with cold water in the yard. Every day she was either washing clothes or on the way to wash clothes, and she was tortured every day.
Even after giving birth to Banggeng, she never had a day off, with endless work to do every day. Jia Zhangshi spent the whole year working on a pair of insoles, slacking off, and didn't finish a pair for several months.
His Jia family is not worthy of marrying a good daughter-in-law. Without Qin Huairu, I wonder if the Jia family can find such a good, capable, hardworking and willing daughter-in-law from the old city.
By the time all the people waiting at the police station were taken home, it was already 8.9 or o'clock in the evening.
Immediately afterwards, everyone in the yard started to pool money and even fought over the amount of the debt.
The Jia family was honored to be allocated 2000 yuan in arrears, and other residents received their respective quotas according to their destructive power. When collecting money, the Jia family did not pay a penny, and they had to pay 5 yuan a month, which would take about 33 years to pay off.
Yi Zhonghai was allocated 500 yuan, even though he did not take anything from Hou Jie. He was assigned this because he was a big shot and did not do anything.
Liu Haizhong and Xu Fugui's families each paid 400 yuan, and Yan Fugui paid 300 yuan
And that bastard Sha Zhu actually went to take it, and because of this, his godfather and godmother broke up with Sha Zhu.
However, they have already found a wife for Sha Zhu, and she is pregnant, so she has lost her usefulness.
They also had many conflicts because Sha Zhu disliked his wife for not being pretty enough.
To be honest, Sha Zhu's wife is still very pretty, of average appearance, but she is not comparable to anyone else. Ever since he saw the beauty of Mu Chunhua and Chen Xueru, his standards have improved, and ordinary women are naturally not in his eyes.
The Yan couple felt that he was heartless and ungrateful and left the courtyard.
His wife finally chose to follow Yan Zhensheng and his wife and divorced Sha Zhu.
It was a good hand that Sha Zhu played badly, and he was also assigned 300 yuan. Fortunately, Yan Zhensheng and his wife were not heartless and left him 500 yuan.
After getting the money, Hou Jie went back to the next room to sleep.
Early the next morning, after dinner, Hou Jie came to his godmother's house in the Central Courtyard. Seeing the mother and son next door with bruised faces and noses, he wanted to intercept Qin Huairu.
He mocked, "Hey! Isn't this Aunt Jia? Your makeup is quite unique today!"
snort!
Jia Zhang was also afraid of Hou Jie, so she simply turned her head away and didn't look at him, and didn't dare to say a single bad word. After a while, she had already hummed several times.
Hou Jie continued to taunt: "Tsk tsk tsk! Jia Zhang, are you a 'hum hum weird'?"
"Look at her face, all black and blue. She's made up really well. If a girl comes later, she'll be scared away."
"you you....."
After hearing this, Jia Dongxu and his mother blushed. They kept saying "you" for a long time but didn't dare to speak.
"Or, Jia Zhang, give me the girl who will be here soon. I still need a wife!"
"As long as you give it to me, I will reduce your family's credit limit by 500. How about it?"
Jia Zhang's eyes widened immediately. She valued money more than anything else. For the sake of money, she even asked Qin Huairu to have a sterilization operation and go out to hook up with men.
