"Young master, you can see clearly that I have to eat, even my family has to eat, the reason I agreed to delay the Su family was because I thought about my family's situation, however, this matter is known by my superiors, they beat me up, and I had no choice but to come and collect the debt."
The reason Wang Qiang found couldn't find anything wrong with it. After all, the first to break the agreement was the Su Clan. Although he wanted to loathe more money, he had still helped the Su Clan.
Everyone present naturally understood this, but they couldn't say it out loud. Wang Qiang knew in his heart that right now, there was only a sincere and wronged expression on his face as he looked at Dai Zixian with a shriveled expression.
Su Jin didn't find anything to refute. She just refused to budge an inch on the loom. Wang Qiang took this opportunity to please her, hinting at the strangeness of Dai Zi Wu's loom. Dai Zi Shi smiled and asked: "How much money does the Su Clan still need?"
Su Jin replied honestly, "I'm still short of 2 taels."
"Take it." He casually threw out two pieces of silver and Wang Qiang quickly accepted it while looking at him.
"Hand over the contract." Dai Zixian stretched out his hand towards him.
Wang Qiang, who was holding the silver taels, looked at the muscular servant behind him and shook his head. He took out the contract and handed it over to a servant. Dai Zixian turned his body and the servant behind him also moved his body away.
How could Wang Qiang not know that Dai Zi Shi was standing up for Su Jin, he could only bitterly put down the loom and lead the group away.
"From now on, the Su Clan is even with you. Do not disturb me again." Wang Qiang's back stiffened. A moment later, he nodded his head forcefully and said, "Yes, I will remember."
Dai Zi Wu smiled in satisfaction, he no longer cared about those people, he turned around and passed the contract to Su Jin.
"I'll return the silver in two days." Su Jin took the contract and looked at Dai Zi Shi's expression for a while, then said gratefully: "Thank you for helping us out."
As he spoke, his hands constantly tore away at the contract.
"It's convenient. The few of you come and help Miss Su carry this opportunity back to the house." Dai Zi Shi ordered.
Although Su Jin heard him say this, his eyes kept glued to the loom. She felt that it was not only funny, but also good to think that he had helped her solve a big problem. Satisfying his curiosity in return was also a good thing.
"The weather is cold. If Young Master Dai doesn't mind, you can go to the house and rest for a bit." she asked.
"Young Master Dai, what kind of person are you —" Dai Zixian had yet to react when a supervisor behind him couldn't hold back and wanted to reprimand him.
"That's good too." Dai Zi Shi quickly cut off his words and brought the group in, at the same time observing Su Jin's expression without leaving any trace.
Su Jin didn't mind. She shrugged and led the others in.
After settling down her family, Su Jin made the fire burn even brighter. She pulled out a small stool and asked Dai Zi Shi to sit down.
"All of you, go over there and roast the fire." After sitting down, he instructed the servants. Su Jin couldn't help but look at him.
"Didn't Dai gongzi ask about the metal parts used in the blacksmith shop that day? Young Master can look at this loom, it's all used on this loom. " Su Jin brought up the events from that day and pointed out the positions of those parts to him.
"Oh?" Dai Zi Shi put down the things in his hands and started to carefully inspect the loom.
The more he looked at it, the more he could not understand. This kind of machine, he had never seen before, and he did not know how it worked either.
Su Jin looked at his revealed appearance and gently smiled. She walked over and squatted down, then put the things in her hands back to where it used to be.
"What are you doing?" Dai Zixian was puzzled by his actions.
"Heh, since they want to take away this machine, I can't stop them so I have to do something about it. Once the parts are removed, the machine will break down within a few hours. This is a little surprise to them."
"Surprise?" Dai Zi Shi also laughed, Su Jin's actions had changed his image of her, he thought she was a smart and intelligent girl, but he never expected her to be a scheming person.
"No matter what, I still have to thank Young Master Dai for his help. I will pay you back in ten days." Su Jin expressed her gratitude again. Dai Zi Shi saw the loom, although he did not understand, but his curiosity had been dispelled, plus he still had things to do, so he just left.
"Young Master Dai is such a good person." The mother was supported by the younger brother as she walked over.
"Something like that." Su Jin looked at the back of the crowd and said indifferently.
She did not know why the handsome little landowner had helped her, whether it was simply because he did not want to bully the weak, or because he wanted to see the loom. Now that he had seen it, she did not know what he would think.
Su Jin thought for a while, but still couldn't figure it out. She probably didn't expect that the one who really attracted Dai Zi Shi was her, because her temperament didn't match her appearance.
No matter what, the Dai Family was one of the best powers in the town. With his word, Wang Qiang and the rest of the Black Tiger Gang would never let this matter go. The next thing he had to consider was paying the pretty landowner some silver coins and the cloth shop's goods. He would make his plans after that.
In her calculations, there was still another idea. The Dai Clan's influence was not small, and she might be able to get on good terms with Dai Zi Shi. With his power, she could proceed more smoothly.
Judging from the landowner's demeanor, it was obvious that he was also a curious person. Based on the knowledge he had, just a few of them would be enough to attract his attention.
After making up her mind, Su Jin no longer hesitated. She did what she had to do as she tried to sift through all the knowledge she could get.
Now that he had paid the four taels of silver, he only had a little money left. Fortunately, the cloth was still in good condition, and once he bought it tomorrow, he should be able to earn more money soon.
The next day was still a foggy day. After Su Jin got up, she washed herself and carried the cloth to the place where she often set up her stall.
When they arrived there, the fog just disappeared, leaving a thin fog floating in the air. Su Jin saw from afar that there were quite a few women squatting and waiting in front of her booth.
She walked over, and when the women saw the cloth in her frame, their eyes couldn't help but light up. They all squeezed up and asked, "Sister, are you selling cloth?"
"Yeah." Su Jin opened up the stall and went back inside.
"Let us see." Excited, the women picked up different pieces of cloth and examined them.
"This pattern is truly extraordinary. Me has never seen it before." a woman said.
"This one is the same, how can it be so soft?" Another answer.
The women looked at each other and asked in unison, "Sister, how much is this cloth?"
Looking at the expectant expressions of the women, Su Jin's heart was so happy that it was about to reach the sky. She calmly said, "The one with patterns on it is 95 lines per one, and the one with plain cloth is 70 lines per one. You get 10% off of two of them."
"Aiya, this is a bit expensive, can it be a bit less?" The woman said.
"How can we be short. Auntie, look at the time —"
