Wang had put down her steelyard and was about to take her precious mirror. Hearing Zhao Qingcheng say so much, she did not even raise her head. She adjusted her hair and after a while said coldly, “What has all that crap you said have to do with me?”
Zhao Qingcheng’s smile froze. She carried on smiling obsequiously, “Sis Wang’s mirror is so exquisite… I say, Sis Wang is so pretty. If I were as pretty as Sis Wang, I’ll never part from the mirror.”
“Thanks.”
Wang accepted Zhao Qingcheng’s praise, and then… carried on fiddling with the small mirror in her hand.
She was impenetrable!
Zhao Qingcheng was wrecked. No matter how she counted, there was no way she could pay that sum of dragon scale runes.
15% interest would mean another month of scrimping and saving. If they still couldn’t return it, they had to sleep on the streets.
For a bunch of girls to sleep on the street, and looked at by a bunch of male animals in the Tai Ah Divine City, this was an absolute disgrace!
Yi Yun heard the conversation between Zhao Qingcheng and Wang.
This was the first time he knew that the Tai Ah Divine City had a bank. So it was possible for people with negative dragon scale runes to maintain a decent living by relying on loans.
But…15% compounded interest meant the bank was pretty much an usury!
By lending 100 dragon scale runes, the next month would be 115, and the following month 132!
Even a lot of usuries were not that bad!
No wonder Zhao Qingcheng was under so much pressure. If they could not return the loan to an usury within the short period of time, it would be nearly impossible in the future. Who would want to keep bearing a high-interest loan during their 6 years of training? And the interest kept rolling up!
Of course, this had nothing to do with Yi Yun. At this time, Wang put down her mirror and allowed Yi Yun to weigh his herbs.
“Hey, aren’t you the one who wants to break the record? What are you standing there for, hurry and hand them over!”
Wang appeared very impatient. Her expression said to hand over the herbs quickly and go to a corner, don’t waste this elder sister’s precious time.
