Chapter 1200 Believe it or not
"The county is going to open a bank to lend money to farmers to pay taxes? Brother An, are you serious?" Mr. Lin was extremely excited: "If there is a bank willing to lend us money, we farmers can survive. "
His family went to the bank to borrow money, but the eldest and third son couldn't even enter the bank. They only asked if they could borrow money to pay taxes and were beaten up.
Banks generally do not lend money to farmers for fear that the farmers will lose money if they fail to repay the money. Therefore, if most farmers are in trouble, they can only ask relatives to borrow money, or go to gambling houses to borrow money.
However, the interest charged by gambling houses is too high, and farmers simply cannot afford it. In the end, they have to sell their fields, houses, or use their daughters to pay off the debt.
"Captain Gu, is the bank really willing to lend us money? How much is the interest? It won't be as high as in a gambling house, right?" Boss Lin asked Gu Jinan anxiously, his body still hurting from the beating he received from the bank's nursing home. With.
Gu Jinan said: "No, the interest rate of the new bank is very low, and as long as the interest rate exceeds 20% of the principal, the debt can be eliminated."
What does this mean? Mr. Lin is old and didnt understand.
Lin Laosan exclaimed and said: "Dad, Mr. Gu is saying that the new bank is good. We only need to pay interest. As long as the interest paid exceeds 20% of the principal, we don't have to pay back the money." Now, you can eliminate the debt without even paying back the principal. What a good thing, its really a great thing!
Lin Laosan was extremely excited, and Zhou Dalang was also extremely happy, saying: "Great, if this is true, all of us can survive."
After hearing this, Mr. Zhou was not happy and questioned Gu Jinan: "Brother An, what you said is a lie. The old man has lived for decades and has never seen such a bank. He doesn't even have to pay back the principal, just interest." Can you cancel your debts after paying enough money? Heh, are you fooling us?"
Zhou Laoer followed up and said: "Yes, you must not want to lend us money, so you made up such lies to deceive us."
Zhou Lao'er felt very unhappy when he saw his eldest nephew's happy appearance. This idiot, what's there to be happy about? Borrowing money from a bank requires interest. Borrowing from the Gu family, let alone interest, as long as they drag a For ten or eight years, I guess I wont even have to pay back the principal.
Zhou Dalang felt a little sad when he saw that Mr. Zhou and Mr. Zhou were not talking... After they fled, he found that his grandfather and his second uncle had become different. They wanted to get something for nothing. They even gave in to bullies in order to make life easier in the village. He bullied the eldest sister and made her follow Li Kuihu without any reputation or status.
Gu Jinan glanced at Zhou Dalang and felt that this man was quite pitiful, but if Zhou Dalang didn't want to change and continued to live with Mr. Zhou and Mr. Zhou, there would be nothing worth helping.
"Mr. Lin, please remember my words and go back and wait. Once the new bank opens, I will immediately send someone to notify you. Then I will take you to the new bank and you can borrow it immediately without queuing up. Silver." Gu Jinan said.
Mr. Lin almost shed tears when he heard Gu Jinan's words. The scholar-gong said so, so the thing about the new bank must be true.
"Okay, okay, then the old man will go back and wait... Brother An, thank you. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to last three days." Lin Lao said with a choked voice. When he learned that the emperor was going to charge high taxes, He fainted directly.
He was too desperate and felt that he had suffered enough in his life. If he couldn't borrow money to pay taxes, he didn't want to live anymore.
After all, if one person dies, the family will pay less in taxes.
"Brother Lin, what do you mean by this? Are you leaving now?" Mr. Zhou said anxiously: "Our Xializi Village in Niugou Town is far away from here. We walked all night to get there. Now I am so tired. How can I say it?" You have to rest for a night before leaving."
The Gu family is so rich and their house is so big that they even have egg pancakes for breakfast. Why shouldnt they be entertained with a big meal and fish for dinner?
Mr. Zhou didnt want to leave. He wanted to stay and have a good meal. He also asked his grandfather and grandmother to see if he could borrow some money from them.
On Tuesday, Lang and Lang Lang didn't want to leave. But they remembered that the Gu family had two daughters. They were still in a bachelor. If they could live in the Gu family, they could meet the daughter of the Gu family.
