He squinted and smiled.
"Then, what if the amount is not paid?"
Tong Xiangyu asked.
"Hmph, if you don't pay, then you can find someone to protect you!"
The short and stout man picked up the short knife on the table, and drew it out of its sheath with a "clang".
"I see..."
Tong Xiangyu shrank her neck back and covered her heart with her right hand.
If you double the money for a month, it will be ten taels of silver, and I will give you a [-]% discount, let’s say [-] taels. "
The short and strong man stretched out his right hand and spread his palm in front of Tong Xiangyu.
"Oh."
Tong Xiangyu paused.
"Old Bai, come quickly, someone is collecting protection fees!"
Tong Xiangyu suddenly shouted towards the kitchen.
Then, she looked back at the short and strong man meaningfully, and smiled slightly.
But after a while, Lao Bai's figure still hadn't appeared.
"Old Bai, where did you die!"
Tong Xiangyu was a little anxious.
"Shopkeeper, have you forgotten that Lao Bai went out to buy ingredients in Shannan City today?"
Xiao Guo ran over and whispered in Tong Xiangyu's ear.
"Why, your man hasn't come yet?"
The stocky man grew impatient.
"Shopkeeper, Lao Bai is not here, do you think I can do it?"
Xiao Guo rubbed his palms together, looking ready to move.
"Scholar, close the door and let Xiao Guo go!"
Tong Xiangyu nodded fiercely towards Xiao Guo.
When Lu Xiucai heard the shout, he hurried to the door and closed it.
The short and strong man and the people behind him were a little surprised.
"Hey, I can't tell it's still a black shop! Brothers, give them some color!"
The corner of the short and stout man's mouth was raised, revealing a stern sneer.
"Yes, Xiangzhu!"
The minions of the Black Dragon Gang pulled out their weapons together with a "shua".
Seeing this, the other diners hurriedly left the dining table and leaned against the wall to hide.
"Overwhelming!"
As soon as Xiao Guo turned his hands, the accumulated internal energy erupted.
Those six people were caught off guard, and were beaten up and down.
"Do you dare to collect protection money with this little ability? Auntie is a master of the acquired Yae!"
Xiao Guo clapped his palms and said proudly.
"What about the acquired eightfold? I am also the acquired eightfold! Our leader is the innate triple!"
The stocky man felt that he had been attacked by surprise, and he was very unconvinced.
"Brothers, release the black dragon!"
He swung his right hand back, and then he took the lead in untying the cloth bag around his waist.
Xiao Guo and Tong Xiangyu looked a little apprehensive, not knowing what they were going to do.
"Ah! It's a snake!"
Xiao Guo was the first to see the snake head coming out of the cloth bag.
I saw six black poisonous snakes crawling out of the cloth bag, spitting snake letters, and swimming towards Xiao Guo.
"Mom! Help!"
Xiao Guo was most afraid of this thing, and ran away in fright.
Many timid diners also screamed in fright.
"Don't...don't be afraid, I...I will protect you!"
Lu Xiucai held the broom and stood in front of Xiao Guo trembling.
"A good man, a good man, I will pay protection money! I will pay protection money!"
Tong Xiangyu was also frightened and shouted quickly.
"Hmph, if I knew this earlier, why did I do it in the first place?"
The stocky man sneered.
"I'll give it to me, the hero, hurry up and take these snakes back!"
Tong Xiangyu almost begged.
"Brothers, take the black dragon!"
he shouted to his men.
"Yes, Xiangzhu!"
Several people took the snakes back with cloth bags.
"Hero, this... This is ten taels of silver, and the discount of the two taels of silver is also given to you."
Tong Xiangyu held an ingot of silver and handed it to the short and strong man with shaking hands.
"Hmph, let's forget it this time. I will charge again next month, and I don't want to have any more objections."
The stocky man snorted coldly and accepted the silver.
If it wasn't for keeping this long-term meal ticket, he wouldn't let Tongfu Inn go easily.
"Brothers, let's go to the next house!"
The short and strong man waved his hand and led his men away.
"Xiangzhu, where is the next family going?"
one of the men asked.
"Go to the biggest inn in the town. It's called Xianyu or something. The third one has already gone there first."
The stocky man replied casually.
Chapter 69
Looking at their domineering backs, Tong Xiangyu gritted his teeth with hatred.
"Shopkeeper, I'm sorry, I..."
Xiao Guo stood beside Tong Xiangyu with a face of shame.
"Xiao Guo, it's not your fault. Quickly take the path and inform the shopkeeper Zhao of Xianyu Inn, hurry up."
Tong Xiangyu urged.
"Hey, go right away."
Xiao Guo responded and ran out of the inn quickly.
The distance between the two inns was only two miles, and Xiao Guo arrived there in no time.
"Shopkeeper Zhao, Treasurer Zhao!"
Before entering the door, Xiao Guo yelled.
Hearing the shout, Zhao Min, who was looking at the ledger at the counter, closed the ledger and walked out.
"Are you Xiao Guo from Tongfu Inn?"
Zhao Min recognized Xiao Guo at a glance.
"Yes, we met. I came here to..."
Xiao Guo ran in a hurry and gasped for breath.
"Come on, sit down and talk slowly, what's the matter?"
Zhao Min said.
"No no, it's urgent. It's like this..."
Xiao Guo told the truth about being blackmailed by the Black Dragon Gang.
"The Black Dragon Gang? It seems to be a gang from Shannan City, and they actually reached out to our Qixia Town."
Zhao Min pondered.
"That's right, their martial arts are not very good, but everyone is carrying a black snake, which scares everyone to death."
Thinking of those black snakes, Xiao Guo still has lingering fears.
"Okay, I see, thank you for making a trip."
Zhao Min thanked Xiao Guo.
Xiao Guo saw that the matter was done, so he went back first.
"Let Boss Lin deal with it. Snakes are really disgusting."
Zhao Min shook his head and planned to let Chen Er wake up Lin Hainan.
It was time to eat, and Lin Hainan was about to wake up.
But before she went to call Chen Er, a group of people with cloth bags on their waists stepped into the gate.
Zhao Min frowned and looked at them coldly.
This time, besides the short and strong man, there were six other people, a total of 12 people.
"Call your boss out."
It was still the stocky man who spoke.
"Are you from the Black Dragon Gang?"
Zhao Min asked coldly.
"Yo, you know us?"
The stocky man exchanged a surprised look with the other.
"Oh, I would like to know, how much protection fee do you plan to charge our inn?"
Zhao Min asked jokingly.
"You kid is kind of weird."
The short and strong man circled around Zhao Min for half a circle, sizing him up with mischievous eyes.
"Third, what do you think?"
He asked a tall and thin man beside him.
"Xiangzhu, I also find it weird. Today is the first day we have opened up the territory of Qixia Town. No one should know us."
The tall and thin man named Lao San touched his chin.
"However, this kid is so handsome, it's a pity he's a man, hey."
The third child sighed.
