Chapter 1693: Guanzhou Cheng felt bitter
Madam Guan patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief: "I was so scared, Master, please don't be sad! I'll settle accounts with those bastards later! Humph, none of them can escape!"
Mrs. Guan said hatefully.
He made up his mind that he would make those people compensate for their losses even if it meant losing everything they had or selling themselves into slavery.
Otherwise, they will all be arrested and put in jail.
Guan Zhoucheng was very annoyed, "Just shut up and leave me alone!"
His wife didn't know how much the painting was worth. If she knew, she would probably be furious.
He didn't dare to say it at this moment.
It sounds good to ask those people for compensation, but who can I ask? The situation was so chaotic at that time, who would admit it? No one would admit it.
Besides, if he pushed people into a corner, they would fight to the death and he would be the one who would suffer.
Now he is no longer the sole ruler of the prefectural government. He wants to put someone in jail? Oh, it would be strange if Lord Shao would agree to it!
He knew without asking that none of the yamen runners today would listen to him.
Guanzhou Cheng felt so miserable!
If he had known those bastards were so lawless and unruly, he should have given them money. Twenty taels per person, sixty people would only be a little over a thousand taels.
Look at it now, he has lost more than a thousand taels!
Not only am I pissed off, I'm almost dying of physical pain!
No, if he had given silver at the beginning, instead of giving those six bastards twenty taels first, then ten taels per person would definitely be enough to get rid of everyone.
The more Guanzhou Cheng thought about it, the more painful he felt, and he almost vomited blood in anger!
The doctor finally came. It was confirmed that Guanzhou Cheng's left arm was indeed broken. Not only was it broken, but there were also bruises. He also felt as if he had been kicked and hit several times in the chest and abdomen, which caused a dull pain, so he decided to see the doctor all at once.
This consultation and prescription cost several taels of silver...
Mrs. Guan saw her husband's miserable state and ordered people to get and boil medicine. She stood up and said angrily, "I'm going to find Mrs. Shao. No matter what, I want Mr. Shao to take care of this matter. If he refuses, I won't leave easily even if I risk my life!"
"Stop!" Guanzhou Cheng called her back, frowning, "Come back here! You are not allowed to go!"
"master!"
"Isn't it embarrassing enough? If Shao Yunduan takes this opportunity to open a case and investigate this matter thoroughly, just imagine it yourself!"
“.…..”
Mrs. Guan was instantly speechless.
"Can we just let it go like this? Master, there is so much silver here. Our loss this time is so huge!"
Guanzhou Cheng trembled, and began to feel pain in his body again! Not only did his body hurt, but his heart also hurt!
That painting and calligraphy by a famous artist from the previous dynasty cost him a total of four thousand six hundred taels of silver!
"What else?" Guan Zhoucheng glared at Madam Guan as if he was taking his anger out on her. He sneered, "There's still a long time to go. Just wait and see! Humph, as long as people are still alive, what's lost can always be recovered. This matter ends here. Don't mention it again!"
He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "I need to rest well now and try to recover soon so that I can go back to work in the government office. You'd better be quiet and don't provoke me again."
Mrs. Guan: “….”
Madam Guan was upset: "This is too..."
This is too infuriating! After all the trouble, the result is that I lose both the wife and the army!
Guanzhou Cheng had already closed his eyes tiredly.
He didn't want to talk anymore, as he would get angry if he did.
Mrs. Guan was not willing to accept this, so she went to Qiao Xuan on purpose.
