The prince is very cruel

The bald man snorted coldly, "Don't come, don't come? This old man owes our Xingyang Zheng family three hundred taels of silver, starting from his father. He hasn't paid it back in fifty years, and the interest has been compounded, it's rolled over to his grandchildren. If he doesn't come, who will?"

The shocking words made Guan Ning couldn't help but be shocked. This guy is a living devil. Doesn't it mean that the child is in debt while still in the belly?

"Then doesn't it mean that everyone here owes you money?" Guan Ning asked again.

The bald man seemed to enjoy the feeling of showing off and blurted out: "Haha, kid, of course not."

"Besides those who owe money, there are also those who have signed contracts to sell their bodies. However, they only accept young and middle-aged people to sign contracts. In addition, there are..."

"Anything else?" Guan Ning raised his eyebrows.

The bald man realized that he had said too much and scolded him coldly: "You little bastard, why are you asking so many questions? Are you a spy?"

Guan Ning smiled bitterly: "How could I be a spy?"

"Within a hundred miles, who dares to go against the Zheng family of Xingyang?"

The bald man sneered: "That's not necessarily true. Prince Ping has been harassing our Zheng family because of a few pieces of land. Maybe you are a spy sent by them!"

"Teacher, follow me!"

boom!

Guan Ning was pushed hard again.

Seeing this, Tang Xiang'er, such a weak woman, became a little angry, but Guan Ning signaled her not to say anything.

Soon, the two were escorted to the hillside of the mine.

From here you can overlook most of the mine. Compared to other places, this place is undoubtedly a paradise. You can set up a tent here, avoid the wind and rain, and there is no dust.

On a table, there was fine wine, bayberries, and some dried meat.

"grown ups!"

A young man in fancy clothes was sitting in a chair, resting with his eyes closed, playing with a jade walnut in his hand. "What's the matter?"

The bald man nodded and bowed, then stepped forward to speak.

Guan Ning looked up and down at the man through the gap between the people. He was about twenty years old and looked like a young man who was used to a life of luxury. He actually managed such a large mine.

Before he could take a few more glances, the young man heard the voice, stood up suddenly and turned around.

He has a handsome appearance and can be considered a beautiful man, but his eyes and eyebrows lack some masculinity.

His first sight was fixed on Tang Xiang'er, and his eyes instantly glowed green.

Although Tang Xiang'er was not a rich lady, she did not have gorgeous clothes or exquisite jade ornaments. She only wore a simple and elegant long dress, and her hair was pinned up with a wooden hairpin.

But she is a real young beauty, a pretty girl from a small family, especially that timid girlish feeling, which is the kind that countless men drool over.

Guan Ning frowned and quickly stood in front of Tang Xianger.

"Sir, my wife and I are lost here. I mean no offense. Please understand."

The young man then withdrew his gaze, looked at Guan Ning, and said with a smile: "She is your wife?"

"Yes." Guan Ning was unhappy, but didn't want to lose face. He just wanted to find Shengqi and then go to the next stop.

"Very good." The young man said meaningfully, with a hint of evil flashing in his eyes.

Then he came closer and said indifferently, "You said you were lost?"

"Yes." Guan Ning said again.

"Then why didn't others get lost, but you did?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Guan Ning's face darkened slightly. He felt the other party's hostility and deliberate provocation. It didn't seem like a good thing, and he didn't seem like a good person.

"Sir, we are indeed lost."

"It was not our intention to break in here. How about you let us go, sir?"

"Let you go, hahaha, do you think you can come and go as you please in the territory of my Xingyang Zheng family?" The young man laughed.

"Then, sir, what do you want to do?"

"fine!"

"How many?"

"Three thousand taels!" The young man held up three fingers condescendingly.

Suddenly, the hawks and dogs on the side all smiled as if they were enjoying the show.

Tang Xiang'er was struck by lightning when she heard this. She had never heard of so much money in her life.

Guan Ning's face darkened instantly. Three thousand taels, why the hell don't they just rob the national treasury?

"My Lord, isn't this a bit too much?"

"how?"

"That's the rule here!"

"Why? Don't you have that much money?"

"Then why don't I show you a way out?" He glanced at Tang Xiang'er behind Guan Ning and said, "You can also leave your wife with me as collateral."

"Come and pick it up in five days, and I'll waive the three thousand taels for you."

"Hahaha!" The snickering of the hawks and dogs around turned into unbridled laughter.

The murderous intent in Guan Ning's eyes also emerged completely. The three thousand taels was just a cover, and the real target was Tang Xianger.

"Oh?"

"So, you mean to bully others by taking advantage of your power?"

The young man became even more proud and shouted, "Did I take advantage of my power? Did I bully others?"

"I, Liu Huaiqing, am a man of fairness. I'm giving you two options. If you dare to enter the territory of the Zheng family in Xingyang, you can either pay me three thousand taels or use your woman as collateral. It's your choice."

"Don't say I didn't give you a chance." He said with a cynical look.

Tang Xiang'er on the side was extremely nervous.

Guan Ning sneered in his heart, if that's the case, then don't blame me.

He first glanced around. There were too many people. There were more than thirty thugs standing here alone. Once a fight broke out, more people would be attracted.

So he came up with a plan, and suddenly showed an embarrassment on his face, deliberately saying: "Sir, please, don't do it."

"Humph, beg? Begging me is useless!"

"Hurry up and make your choice, keep your wife or pay the money!" Liu Huaiqing shouted, enjoying the feeling of playing with other people's dignity.

Guan Ning hesitated, struggled, and finally gritted his teeth and begged, "Sir, can we go in and talk?"

"Go in and talk? Sure, but she has to be there." Liu Huaiqing looked at Tang Xiang'er with lustful eyes.

"Okay!" Guan Ning agreed readily.

Although Tang Xiang'er was scared, she knew Guan Ning would not harm her, so she said nothing.

"Hahaha!"

"Bring them in!" Liu Huaiqing rubbed his hands excitedly and walked to the front. He thought Guan Ning had compromised, but it was not easy to say it directly in front of so many people.

A married woman is hard to come by, a married woman is hard to come by!

"Jie Jie Jie..."

The hawks and dogs around laughed and looked at each other obscenely. They all stood outside but did not follow in.

Only two people were guarding Guan Ning closely and followed him into the tent.

As soon as he entered, Liu Huaiqing's true face was completely exposed, and his eyes were filled with fiery passion.

"You two, hold him down!"

"I want him to watch me play with his woman in front of me, hahahaha!"

"Yes!"

The two men on the left and right were very burly and rushed forward in an instant.

"Brother Guan!" Tang Xiang'er exclaimed.

Guan Ning sneered disdainfully. There were only a few people here, so he had nothing to worry about. He attacked like lightning.
