After hearing Li Shaoyi's words, the Japanese present were stunned. "Haven't all your requirements been met? Why are you asking us to do something else?"

"Mr. Li, what price do we have to pay? Isn't the price we're paying high enough?"

When Ito Hirohiro finished saying this, he immediately saw Li Shaoyi's face change. Just now, there was a playful look on Li Shaoyi's face, but now he was like a ferocious tiger.

"You'd better swallow what you just said, or don't blame me for being unfair to you. Anyone who wants to take their child away has to pay me 30,000 dollars. I don't care how you get the money. Anyway, I only give you four hours. If you don't come up with the money before dark, I will take these people to my military camp. You know what I do there, right? I will tie them all to trees and let my soldiers practice with bayonets."

Li Shaoyi said with a gloomy face. At that moment, Ito Hirohiro opened his mouth but couldn't say a word. The pressure from Li Shaoyi was really too great.

"It's not fair..."

A parent was about to come forward and roar when a soldier standing nearby punched him, knocking him unconscious and a tooth sticking out of his mouth.

"I am the rule here. There's no such thing as fair or unfair. You Japanese believe in fists the most. Whoever has the bigger fist gets to rule. I remember back in Shimonoseki, Japan, your then Prime Minister said there was only one option: agree or not. There's no other choice. It's the same now. Either you raise the money immediately. Forty thousand dollars each, no cheating, or I'll take you back to practice with bayonets."

After Li Shaoyi finished speaking, he immediately walked back, but stopped halfway.

"And the joint statement from your dispatched forces and the embassy. If I can't see it later, I'm going to kill people anyway."

Li Shaoyi's eyes were like those of a wild beast. Ordinary people would feel cold all over after just one look at him. Some more practical people stopped talking nonsense and hurried to collect money. Thirty thousand dollars was not a very high figure. If they worked hard, they could definitely collect it.

"Mr. Li, I want to take my two children away. Is that 60,000 yuan? I have it here."

A Japanese man in his fifties came over a few minutes later with his two grandsons. This guy was willing to pay 60,000 yuan.

"The president of Watanabe Trading Company earns 100,000 a year."

Liu Xiaoshan said something from the side, and President Watanabe also heard it, and felt nervous for no reason.

"Your family's budget is different. I know you can afford it. Sixty thousand for a child, or twelve thousand dollars. Isn't that a lot?"

In front of Ito Hirohiro, Li Shaoyi reneged on his previous words. He had agreed to give 30,000 oceans for each child, but now the amount has doubled because the other person earns more.

"Mr. Li..."

"It's nothing. Think about how much you Japanese have plundered us. What I got back isn't much. Unless you think your two grandsons aren't worth this much, then you can just turn around and leave. I don't want this money either."

Li Shaoyi said with a sneer, and at the same time looked at the two little boys standing up on the playground. These were President Watanabe's grandsons, who were looking at their grandfather pitifully at the moment.

"I'll go out."

Fifteen minutes later, President Watanabe left with his two grandsons, spending a total of 120,000 yuan.

Liu Xiaoshan directly got a table from the school and started collecting money and registering here. If Li Shaoyi were to collect the money himself from so many people, it would take who knows how long it would take.

"So you're President Okamoto's son. Sorry, your price will be tripled to 90,000 yuan."

"Director Wang's son, Director Wang has plenty of money, one price, one hundred thousand dollars."

"Oh Ambassador Ito, this is your nephew? Your Ito family is a famous family in Japan, worth 100,000 yuan."

Li Shaoyi and Liu Xiaoshan were watching these people who came with money at the door. If you are just ordinary poor people, you can pay 30,000 yuan and get out. But if you are from famous families, we are really sorry for you. We are here to kidnap you today. Either pay the money and take the person away, or you will watch the big show later.

"This box of gold is worth five thousand dollars to you."

"Officer, this gold of mine could be exchanged for six thousand dollars in any bank. Now that the bank is closed, I brought the gold here."

"Will you exchange it for five thousand dollars? If not, get out of here. This is the last time."

Liu Xiaoshan said viciously, unless what you bring is a bank draft or cash, if it is something else, we will be like a pawnshop and we will make a profit from you anyway.

Those who did not take their children out were crying, and those who did take their children out were also crying, and they cried even more miserably. There was nothing that could be done about it. Although the children were taken out, some families were left penniless.

For many middle-class people in Japan, all the money their family had was only 20,000 or 30,000 yuan. After being robbed by Li Shaoyi, they didn't know how to pay back the money. Many people might have to sell their houses today.

Hu Dezhu was also called to help. This guy knew a lot about some people and things in Peiping, especially those big traitors. They couldn't be let off easy now.

We were busy until dark, and there were still more than 30 children on the playground who had not been taken away.

"What's going on?"

Li Shaoyi pushed Ito Hirohiro without any respect. Ito Hirohiro had been like Li Shaoyi's follower for the whole afternoon, and he didn't want any casualties to occur.

"These are the children of our garrison soldiers and officers. They really don't have that much money, and now they are surrounded by you."

Ito Hirohiro looked bitter and hoped that Li Shaoyi would show leniency.

"Take them all away. Go inform their parents. After our troops withdraw, you'll pay them 100,000 yuan each. You'll only give them tomorrow. If no one comes to claim them tomorrow afternoon, I'll treat them as unwanted. Do you know what I'll do with them?"

"Bayonet practice."

It was as if all the nerves on Ito Hirohiro's face were dead. When he said these three words, there was no expression on his face. Li Shaoyi was a man who dared to make money from anything. In just one afternoon, these more than 400 children had earned Li Shaoyi more than 20 million yuan...
