Chapter 52 1000 Taels and 2000 Taels
The complexion of the rich middle-aged man changed for a while, but the gesture still did not go down after all.

In the final analysis, he was still a little confused about Huang Badger... It would be fine if he was the lucky one who picked up the treasure by chance, but what if the other party was a cultivator at all, or there was a cultivator behind him?Although the Treasure Pavilion has a strong background, if he rashly ordered to attack a cultivator, the Treasure Pavilion would be fine, but someone else would be the shopkeeper...

On the one hand, it is possible to earn a high-level magic weapon for nothing, but it has to take huge risks;

After thinking for a moment, the rich middle-aged man showed a smile on his face.

"I haven't introduced myself yet." He stretched out his hand to Huang Badger again, and said with a smile, "My lord, Jin Manlou, the treasurer of the Treasure Pavilion, welcome to this pavilion, sir."

……

The words are divided into two parts.

After the yellow badger left, the city guards tied Gu Xingshi regardless of the hunters' entreaties.

The young master of the Wang family seemed very satisfied with the result, and left swaggeringly with the skinny butler and a group of guards on his face.

Unexpectedly, after they left, the pockmarked captain of the city guard came over.

"You country bumpkins really don't understand the rules at all." The pockmarked team leader glanced at the hunters and said with a straight face, "You know how to beg us to release people if you let them go. Why don't you have any sincerity?" Deliberately bumped the purse in his hand.

The hunters in Baixi Village were dumbfounded.

The pock-marked team leader looked at the sky with an impatient look on his face, and said, "Do you have to make me understand? You have committed a crime, and if you are sincere, you will be released after a symbolic detention for a day or two! No sincerity." Yes, maybe you will sit in prison and stay there for the rest of your life... Are you sincere?"

The hunter surnamed Liu, the leader of Baixi Village, finally came to his senses, and murmured, "That... how much sincerity is it?"

The pock-marked team leader took a closer look at the hunters, and snorted, "Look at how poor you are... So-so, 1000 taels is considered sincerity."

1000 two!

Many hunters gasped suddenly, this was too much!
You know, all the materials produced by Baixi Village in a month are sold in Cangshi City, and in the end they usually sell for more than 1000 taels!That is the income of hundreds of families who have worked hard for a month!
The hunters were cursing in their hearts, the city guards in Cangshi City were too greedy!
"Don't want to hand it in?" The pockmarked team leader sneered, didn't say much, just waved his hand and said:
"go!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around bluntly, led a dozen or so soldiers in full armor, and escorted Xiao Zhengtai away.

"Brother Liu! What... what to do!" The hunters gathered together, looking anxiously at the leader of the Liu family hunter.

"What else can we do, they want 1000 taels, let's give it!" The hunter of the Liu family stomped his feet resentfully, and gritted his teeth, "Everyone knows how brother Xiao treated us before, and many of us were rescued by him. Fate! Now that something happened to Little Shitou, how can we sit idly by!"

"Isn't it just 1000 taels? We just calculated together at noon, and this time the goods can be sold for almost 500 taels! Even if you pay 1000 taels, you won't go back empty-handed... Take 1000 taels to save Brother Xiao's son, Who has an opinion?"

"I have no opinion!"

"I have no opinion either!"

"Isn't it just 1000 taels, save, you must be saved!"

The hunters shouted one after another.

"Okay!" Liu's hunter nodded, "Then follow the previously discussed division of labor, everyone will split up immediately and sell the goods as soon as possible, and then we will gather at the inn!"

The hunters nodded in agreement, and then left one after another.

……

Not long after, the hunters of Baixi Village returned to the inn.

They gathered together at a table, some took out a small purse from their pockets, some had a handful of broken silver, and some simply had a large handful of copper plates... Adding up the bits and pieces together, they made up about 800 yuan. two silver.Only the hunter of the Liu family was in charge of selling animal skins, holding a silver ticket of 800 taels in his hand.

The hunter surnamed Liu picked up the silver bill, and then swiped it from the table for a while, drew out about 200 taels of change, put them together into a money bag, and carried them carefully.

Everyone glanced at each other, and walked towards the north gate together nervously.

The city guards of Cangshi City are divided into four divisions, east, west, north, south, and the one who captured Xiao Zhengtai is the "Northern City Guard".

A group of people came to the North City Gate and reported the name that the pockmarked captain deliberately left behind. After a while, they saw the pockmarked squad leader leading a group of more than a dozen soldiers coming over.The other Beicheng guards on patrol saw this scene, but turned a blind eye to it, obviously they were used to it.

"Have you figured it out?" The pockmarked squad leader showed a contemptuous smile, "You have made the right choice, let me see your sincerity."

The hunter of the Liu family presented a bulging money bag.

The pock-marked team leader saw that the bag was quite big and bulging, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.But when he opened the bag and saw a pile of broken silver and scattered copper plates inside, and there was only one 800 tael silver note, his expression turned cold.

"Hmph!" The pockmarked team leader threw the bag into his arms, turned around and walked back.

"My lord, my lord!" Liu's hunter yelled quickly, "Look, there are a full 1000 taels inside, that, when will we let our people go?"

"Release him?" The pockmarked team leader suddenly turned around and said with a sneer, "Would you like to release him for just 1000 taels?"

"But haven't we already..."

"Yeah, you guys have shown your sincerity, I'm really satisfied! Let me think about it, I wanted to be imprisoned for the rest of my life, but now I'll be imprisoned for ten or eight years." The pockmarked team leader sneered.

"Hey, you don't care what you say!" an impatient hunter couldn't help but yelled.

The hunter of the Liu family yelled secretly!

Sure enough, when the pockmarked team leader heard this, his face suddenly turned cold.He said blankly: "Yeah, I just changed my mind. What can you do with me? A group of country bumpkins who don't know the rules, want to let them go right away... that's fine, give me another 1000 taels!"

Boom!

These words were no less than a bolt from the blue, which stunned the hunters.

These simple mountain village men never expected that the captain of the dignified city guards could be so shameless that he would turn his back on what he had said!

The 1000 taels just now is already most of the money for selling supplies, and I want another 1000 taels, where can I find it!
What's more, the other party can refuse to admit it this time, so what about the next time?What if they worked so hard to get another 1000 taels, and the other party continued to regret it?This is a bottomless pit!
The men were almost desperate.The eyes of several hunters who had been saved by Gu Yuanxiao were all red, and they almost rushed to fight the city guards!
At this moment, a strange voice was heard suddenly.

"Hey, pock-marked boy, brother will give you another 2000 taels, do you want it?"
