I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times

Chapter 197: Exchange secrets for money

Grandma Wang didn’t expect that her son would say this in front of outsiders. She was so shocked that she wanted to rush over and cover his mouth to stop him from talking anymore.

Unexpectedly, Feng Laishun pushed him and staggered.

Mother Wang was angry and sad, but her son said it lightly, but he didn't know the pain in her heart.

Hu Batian was already impatient with waiting, and shouted angrily with a dark face, "Okay, hurry up and take out the money. If you want to make a fuss, when the debt is paid off, you can make whatever fuss you want."

Grandma Wang stretched out her hand and wiped away her tears, "Mr. Hu, I really don't have that much money in my hand. Please give me a little more grace."

Hu Batian didn't believe her when she said she had no money. "It seems that you won't shed tears until you see the coffin. If that's the case, don't blame me for being cruel."

He waved his hand to the thug behind him and said, "Chop off Feng Laishun's fingers."

"Yes, boss." The seven or eight thugs who followed Hu Batian immediately rushed towards Feng Laishun with fierce looks.

 Seeing that they were serious, Feng Laishun turned pale and cried to Grandma Wang, "Mother, mother, please help me quickly."

Grandma Wang rushed over, stopped in front of him, and begged Hu Batian to tolerate him for a few more days.

 However, Hu Batian remained unmoved.

The thugs rushed forward and grabbed Feng Laishun, regardless of the obstruction, and dragged him away.

Feng Laishun was angry and anxious, "Please wait a moment, sir. I will pay you back right away."

Seeing that he finally relented, Hu Batian waved his hand to signal the thugs to stop first.

Feng Laishun quickly yelled at his mother, "Mom, what are you doing standing still? Hurry back to the Duke's mansion to get your things."

Grandma Wang glared at him angrily.

The warehouse of Duke Zhao's Mansion does not belong to her. If someone knew that she had stolen something from it, she would definitely not end up well.

Although she had stolen a few things in exchange for money before, they were all inconspicuous and unmarked small things. She didn't dare to take those big and expensive things.

In the past few days, Mrs. Zhao Guogong was planning to have someone check the warehouse, but she did not dare to do it again.

In case of this, the position of her care of the matter will definitely be stunned, and maybe she may be ordered by Mrs. Zhao Guogong.

Where can she find 10,000 taels to repay the debt?

Seeing that Grandma Wang was motionless, Hu Batian waved his hand.

A thug with a gloomy face behind him immediately took out a dagger and walked straight towards Feng Laishun.

Feng Laishun's face was full of panic. While struggling, he desperately called his mother to go to Zhao Guogong's house to get something to save him.

 Hands of her son were to be chopped off, and naturally Grandma Wang couldn’t bear it.

 But she couldn't help it.

Ling Chu was engaged to the crown prince of Zhao Guogong after all. Although Mrs. Zhao Guogong didn't like her, Grandma Wang was worried that if she found out about stealing things from her, Mrs. Zhao Guogong would definitely not be able to spare her.

 Grandma Wang had no choice but to kneel down and beg for mercy from Hu Batian.

However, Hu Batian would not stop if he could not see the money.

With one look, the thug slashed with his dagger.

  With a miserable howl, Feng Laishun's little finger was chopped off bloody.

Grandma Wang trembled in her heart and kowtowed to Hu Batian.

 As a bully, what tricks has Hu Batian not seen before?

Even if Grandma Wang knocked her forehead and it bled, she would not blink an eye.

Lingchu had been standing aside and watching silently,

 It wasn’t until the thug raised the dagger for the second time that she slowly shouted, “Wait a minute.”

The veins on Hu Batian's forehead throbbed. The more he was afraid of something, the more he would get it.

Even though he was reluctant, he waved to the thug first.

 Then he asked, "I wonder what's wrong with Miss Ling?"

Lingchu smiled and said, "It's not a big deal, I just have something I want to ask Grandma Wang. Please wait a moment."

"Okay, since the girl has something to do, I'll wait for a moment." Hu Batian suppressed his dissatisfaction in his heart and did not dare to express it too much.

 Mainly because he did not dare to offend the commander of the Imperial Guard. Grandma Wang originally didn't want to see Ling Chu, but now she was grateful to her for stopping Hu Batian.

 “I wonder what the girl wants to ask?”

Lingchu glanced at Feng Laishun who had passed out, and then said slowly, "As the saying goes, the pain is in the child's body, but the pain is in the mother's heart.

I don’t know, mama, do you want to save your son? "

She only has a son, why don’t she want to save him?

Seeing her son who had passed out, Grandma Wang wished she could take her own life.

 It's just that she didn't believe that Ling Chu would be so kind to help her.

Moreover, the Ling Mansion has been defeated, how could she still have so much money on her body?

Lingchu took out the piece of yellow jade he had bet with Han Yao in the Cuiyu Pavilion last time.

Grandma Wang is in charge of the warehouse of Duke Zhao's Mansion. She has seen a lot of good things, and she can tell at a glance that this piece of jade is a good thing.

“I have no money, but this jade is more than enough to cover your debt of ten thousand taels.”

 “What does the girl want from me?”

  Not too stupid, knowing that she would not give her the piece of emerald in vain.

“Mother Wang has been in the Duke of Zhao’s mansion for many years, so she must know a lot of things, right?”

“Young lady, you want to inquire about the Duke of Zhao’s mansion so that you can please the Duke’s wife and the prince after entering the house?”

Ling Chu shook his head, "I will not marry the eldest son of Zhao Guogong. I said last time that I would cancel the engagement."

"That's the Duke's Mansion. Is the girl really willing to have such a good marriage?"

"Mom, there is no need to tempt you. I will definitely cancel this marriage."

Mother Wang was really surprised, but she didn’t care to delve into it at this time.

 “What does the girl want to know?”

"Tell me what you know. Whether you can save your son depends on whether what you say is worth ten thousand taels."

Since the purpose of inquiring about Duke Zhao's residence is not to please the Duke's wife and the prince, it is to get some evidence and use it as a threat.

This is to ask her to exchange the secrets of Zhao Guogong's mansion for money.

  Hu Batian's eyes were filled with greed when he saw Huang Fei.

  It’s just that although he coveted this piece of jade, he didn’t dare to have any evil thoughts.

At this moment, he was hoping that Grandma Wang would reveal more secrets in exchange for this piece of jade.

 As long as the jade is in her hands, it is considered to be his.

 Seeing Grandma Wang's eyes rolling and looking shrewdly calculating, Ling Chu said quietly, "There's no need to talk about the prince Zhao Guo's sleeping with the maid and his relationship with the eldest daughter of Zhongqin's house. I know all about it."

Grandma Wang was stunned. Just now she was wondering how much money she could exchange for this matter.

 Unexpectedly, she already knew.

Grandma Wang racked her brains to think about what could be worth exchanging 10,000 taels for.

After thinking about it, the secret of the crown prince Zhao Guogong is still worth some money.

As long as the secret is revealed, she is afraid that she will no longer be able to stay in Zhao Guogong's mansion.

 Otherwise, if the Duke's wife knew about it, she would be beaten to death without saying a word.

Although she was reluctant to part with the errands in the Duke's office, she couldn't care less about it now.

Although she was annoyed that Feng Laishun owed a huge gambling debt, she was her only son after all. How could Grandma Wang really have the heart to do nothing to save her.
