With that said, Fangzheng stood up and said to Liu Xinyu, "Patron, what will happen if there's no one to use force to collect debts?"
Liu Xinyu's eyes lit up when she heard that. "My father will definitely return … Many people will return! We will repay the money we owe. We definitely will! "
Fangzheng smiled. "Patron, remember. This is your promise to This Penniless Monk."
"Master, can you help me …" Liu Xinyu probed.
Fangzheng chuckled. "This Penniless Monk can't help you, but someone can. Let's go. Follow This Penniless Monk. "
"Where are we going?" Liu Xinyu asked curiously.
"To the police station," Fangzheng said.
Liu Xinyu asked worriedly, "Will … Will this work? It's only right to repay debts … "
Fangzheng said, "Of course it's right. However, some people's money isn't."
Fangzheng brought Liu Xinyu directly to the biggest public security bureau in the city. What surprised Fangzheng was that they happened to be in time for an inspection by the higher-ups. Without a word, Fangzheng shouted, "I want to call the police! Someone is lending money at a high interest rate. Will anyone care? "
However, this shout immediately attracted the attention of the inspecting leader. He walked over and asked, "Someone is lending money at a high interest rate?"
Fangzheng said, "Yes!"
"Can you tell me in detail?" the leader asked.
Fangzheng said, "She knows very well."
With that said, Fangzheng smiled at Liu Xinyu and said, "The happiness of the entire village is on you. Tell the truth. All the best!"
When Liu Xinyu heard that, she bit her lips and nodded vigorously.
"Aren't you the one calling the police?" a policeman asked Fangzheng.
Fangzheng said, "This Penniless Monk will call the police on behalf of this patron."
"Then you have to leave," a policeman said.
Fangzheng smiled and nodded. He left with Red Boy. However, Red Boy used his divine powers to project the situation inside into their minds.
Things went smoother than Fangzheng had imagined. The leader who came down to inspect paid special attention to Liu Xinyu's reaction. Immediately, he organized people to head to the village where Liu Xinyu's family was. A vigorous campaign to crack down on high interest rates and use force to collect debts began.
During this process, Fangzheng did not leave. He accompanied Liu Xinyu and watched the criminals be taken away.
When the news was broadcasted, the dark clouds in the sky above the entire village seemed to have lessened. Many people's faces seemed to have a bit more sunshine …
Gradually, the people who ran away came back, the wives reunited with their husbands, and the children reunited with their parents …
Liu Xinyu's father finally came back. Just as her father came back, her mother also came back. To Liu Xinyu's surprise, her mother didn't leave. She just hid nearby. The money that Liu Xinyu occasionally received was earned by her hard work, and she secretly mailed it to Liu Xinyu in envelopes. She did not dare to go home, fearing that the little money she had earned would be taken away by the debt collectors.
It was only today that she dared to come back.
Although the loan sharks had been taken away, a lot of normal debts had also appeared. Facing these debts, the family still found it difficult to bear. But at this time, Liu Xinyu's father stood up. "I will pay back the money I owe everyone. Don't worry, I won't run away. In the future, whether I work or farm, the money I earn will only be kept for my living expenses. I'll return the rest to everyone. Give me some time, I'll definitely be able to return it … "
Hence, the next day, Liu Xinyu's father woke up early and began work.
The people who went to the farmer's market to work formed a team again … The only thing that made Liu Xinyu's father sigh was that Song Jianguo would no longer call him to work every morning. However, Liu Xinyu's father also took on the responsibility of taking care of Song Jianguo … In his words, one more person was just one more pair of chopsticks. He could grit his teeth and get through it.
A few years later, everyone had repaid their debts …
That day, a gust of wind blew away the dark clouds. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief, and a trace of a happy smile appeared on their bitter faces. They had never felt that living could be so easy … It was even easier than when they spent money like it was dirt!
Ten years later, a small temple was built in the village. There was a portrait in the temple. On the portrait was a kind-looking old monk with a young monk beside him. This wasn't a monastery, nor was it a temple. It wasn't even built by the villagers.
It was built by Liu Xinyu. She would come back almost every year and sit in the small temple to thank the person in the portrait …
However, Fangzheng did not know any of this.
At that moment, Fangzheng was walking on the road with Red Boy. Looking at the busy streets on both sides, Red Boy could not help but sigh. "Master, I miss home."
Fangzheng nodded. He also missed home.
Fangzheng did not know what was going on. Over the past few times, he had either encountered a father-son reunion or a mother-daughter reunion. This time, it was even better. It was a family reunion. Fangzheng's heart was also empty …
Just as he said this, someone shouted in front of him, "Oh my god, Boss, what's this? It's so heavy! "
Fangzheng looked up and saw a young man carrying a wooden box. He put it down after two steps and shouted at the boss of the shop.
"Dumbbell accessories. Help me bring them over. Thank you," shouted the boss.
When the young man heard that, he immediately shouted with a sobbing tone, "Boss, there's more than a hundred kilograms! Can you help me? "
The boss said, "Didn't you see me doing the math? Hurry up … "
When Fangzheng saw this, he shook his head helplessly and walked over. "Amitabha. Patron, This Penniless Monk will help you."
"You? No … Grandpa … Uh … Master, you? Can you do it? "the young man asked Fangzheng in astonishment.
Fangzheng was taken aback. Only then did he recall that he had transformed into Zen Master One Finger. From his appearance, he looked to be in his seventies or eighties. To help someone carry things at this age … It was no wonder the other party looked astonished.
Fangzheng shook his head and did not say a word. He bent down and exerted strength, easily lifting the box that weighed more than a hundred kilograms. Then, he asked without blushing or panting, "Can I just put it over?"
The young man was completely dumbfounded as he nodded with his mouth agape.
Fangzheng ignored him and directly sent the items into the shop.
Just as he put it down, the boss was taken aback. "Eh? What's going on? This should be … Little Rong, I'm letting you do some work. Why are you letting an old man do it? Do you have any conscience? "
"Boss, he's better than me," Little Rong hurriedly ran over and said bitterly.
The boss looked at Fangzheng's relaxed look and then at the box on the ground. He said in embarrassment, "Sigh … Grandpa, this … Why don't I treat you to something?"
Fangzheng subconsciously rubbed his stomach when he heard that.
