"Money?" Xu Xuewang murmured.
"Yeah, hurry up and give them the money." These people looked fierce and menacing; they couldn't afford to mess with them.
"Mother, I..." Xu Xuewang's hesitant words made Yang Shi even more uneasy.
"This is all the money we have left." Xu Xuewang took out his purse from his pocket, and Yang Shi eagerly opened it. Inside were only a few copper coins.
Yang felt something rising up from her body to her head, and then everything went black before her eyes, and she fainted.
"Mother, Mother." The plump body collapsed onto Xu Xuewang.
Qian Shengcai had been waiting impatiently for a long time. He snatched the purse from Yang's hand and said, "Pah! Just a few coins? Xu Xuewang, you're really bad at gambling. You've lost fifty taels of silver." It seemed that he had been tricked.
But what did this have to do with him? Qian Shengcai gave a look, and two of his men dragged Xu Xuewang over. Yang, who had lost her support, fell to the ground.

However, Xu Xuewang has no time to worry about that now. Without the Yang family, he now has to face the challenge of making money all by himself.
"I don't care if you gambled or ate the money, you have to pay me back." Qian Shengcai squatted down and looked Xu Xuewang straight in the eye.
Xu Xuewang didn't even look at him. "Yes, yes, Boss Qian, don't worry, I will definitely pay you back."
"Give it back? Then hand over the money." Qian Shengcai suddenly stood up and kicked Xu Xuewang.
"Boss Qian, the money, the money is all with my dad. I'll bring it back to you when he gets back." In his panic, Xu Xuewang came up with this idea. His dad had been an accountant for so many years, he must have money.
He grasped at this as if it were a lifeline, "Boss Qian, my dad works as an accountant in town. He definitely has money. He went out with his boss to check the inventory. As long as he comes back, he can pay you back."
Qian Shengcai remained silent, seemingly pondering the truthfulness of his words. After a moment, he suddenly laughed, "Brother Xu, get up quickly."
As he spoke, he actually reached out and helped Xu Xuewang, who was kneeling on the ground, up. The speed at which he changed his attitude caught Xu Xuewang off guard.
"Oh dear, Brother Xu and I have known each other for a while now. Even if there have been some misunderstandings, there's still some old friendship between us." Qian Shengcai said with a smile, but what he said left Xu Xuewang speechless.
"Well then, since you said you'd pay me back when your father comes back, that's fine. But I have a condition: if the money is delayed for even a day, you have to give me an extra tael of silver."

In this way, he wouldn't have lost too much, and Qian Shengcai felt that his idea was brilliant.
"One tael of silver?" If Xu Xuewang weren't afraid of him, he would have already exploded. "Boss Qian, isn't one tael of silver too much?"
"Oh, not much, not much. If you return all that money to me today, you won't have to pay a single tael of silver." Qian Shengcai's smile was still there, but Xu Xuewang felt as if he were a man-eating beast.
He doesn't have the money right now, but one or two taels of silver is just too much.
Qian Shengcai didn't give him a chance to think it over. "Get some paper and pen, let's write a contract, sign it and put our fingerprints on it, and that'll settle things."
Before Xu Xuewang could say anything more, Qian Shengcai had already made his move, punching Xu Xuewang so hard he could barely stand. "Don't push your luck. Either write a written agreement, or give me the money right now."
"Write it, I'll write it right away." Xu Xuewang endured the pain and went inside to find paper and pen. Qian Shengcai didn't need him to write it; he picked up the pen and quickly wrote the document himself. At the end, he even took Xu Xuewang's hand and put his fingerprint on the document.
Qian Shengcai picked up the document, blew on it, and smiled again. This trip wasn't a complete waste.
"Kid, tell me, when is your dad coming back? I'll come and collect the money myself."
"The day after tomorrow," Xu Xuewang said, shrinking his neck.

"So fast." Qian Shengcai felt he had written down too little interest, one tael of silver. Oh well, it's good to get the money sooner.
"Alright, I'll come back the day after tomorrow. Tell your dad to prepare the money, or I'll teach you a lesson." After scaring Xu Xuewang, Qian Shengcai laughed and left with his men.
As soon as these people disappeared from Xu Xuewang's sight, he hurriedly ran over and closed the door. Leaning against the door, his legs went weak, and he sat down on the ground with a thud.
He happened to see Yang lying on the ground, and he staggered over to her, crying, "Mother, Mother, wake up!"
When Yang woke up, she was already in bed. "My son," she called out in a hoarse voice.
Xu Xuewang immediately ran over, his eyes red, probably from crying. "Mom, you're finally awake. Are you alright?"
Madam Yang shook her head. "Where are those people? Oh dear, those heartless bastards, how could they treat you so cruelly?" Xu Xuewang's face was covered in bruises, and Madam Yang felt extremely distressed.
Xu Xuewang sniffed, holding back the tears in his eyes. "Mother." The mother and son were almost about to burst into tears.
Fortunately, Yang remembered what happened before she fainted. She grabbed Xu Xuewang's arm nervously, "Son, tell your mother what the prescription was all about, and when did you start gambling?"
Now that things had come to this, Xu Xuewang had nothing left to hide, so he told Yang everything, including the agreement they had just signed and the details of the gambling.

"I was just passing by the gambling den that day when I was carrying money, so I went in out of curiosity and found out I'd lost it all." His eyes flickered as he said this.
"You... sigh." In the end, Madam Yang didn't say anything, but just sighed. None of that mattered. The most important thing now was to pay back the eighty taels of silver. No, it would be eighty-one taels of silver tomorrow.
"You said that money made money bought so many things that it cost thirty taels." Yang would have accepted fifty taels, but the thought of thirty taels made her feel aggrieved.
Xu Xuewang didn't know exactly how much he bought, but given how angry he was, it must have been quite a lot.
"Mother, when Father comes back, we must pay back this money, otherwise Qian Shengcai will definitely beat someone to death." Xu Xuewang couldn't help but tremble when he thought of the scene he saw that day.
At the time, I was thinking that the other person was really unlucky to work for Qian Shengcai, but I never expected that it would be my turn in the blink of an eye.
Madam Yang quickly patted her son's hand, "Don't worry, Mother will definitely not let those people hit you again." Those heartless bastards, if she hadn't fainted, she would have definitely made them pay.
“We can’t pay for this. It’s not our fault that the prescription had problems; it’s Xu Genshan and the others’ fault. Why should our family pay for it?” Madam Yang said through gritted teeth, completely forgetting that her son had stolen the prescription.
Xu Xuewang hesitated for a moment, "Mother, you mean..."
