Chapter 473 Extortion



Song Liyun waved her hand at him, signaling him to stop talking, and then turned to everyone in the courtyard and said, "Everyone has come from afar to help, so it is natural for me, the host, to be responsible for any injuries they may suffer."

"Uncle Qin, you don't need to worry."

Upon hearing that Song Liyun was going to take the blame for him, Qin Huai's face immediately scrunched up in shame.

He sighed and rushed out of the crowd, squatting by the courtyard wall, filled with regret.

I'm so old and I still can't hold my temper. I've been able to tolerate Xia's antics for so long, but I just had to take action today!

This caused Miss Song to lose twenty taels of silver for nothing.

On the other hand, upon hearing that Song Liyun would cover the medical expenses, Xia Pu immediately felt remorseful.

I still softened my heart. I should have said that my arms and legs were broken, and my ribs were broken. I would have to lie in bed for a year and a half. I could at least ask for another 250.

There's no reason for me to extort money now.

Song Liyun didn't give him much time to consider and directly summoned the person in charge of the financial management of the migrant workers in Mida City.

It turned out to be a friend of Fangzheng who came.

Fang Zheng and Guo Tong had previously served as Song Liyun's guards in Suijin Town for a period of time. When Lin Qingyuan encountered a great calamity, the two of them went to Hecheng with him.

They are generally reliable and steady in their work.

Fangzheng learned to read and write for a while in Lin Qingyuan's shop, and now he's working as a money and grain accountant in Mida City.

When he saw that Song Liyun wanted to withdraw 270 taels of silver, he took out a box of silver ingots without saying a word.

The silver was dazzlingly white; it was official-minted snowflake silver, ten taels each.

After giving the silver, Song Liyun immediately had a large cart arranged, not even allowing the people from Xia Family Village to stay overnight.

Xia Pu, upon seeing the silver, had no time to worry about Song Liyun chasing people away overnight.

Anyway, there's a rest stop ten miles outside the city. Now that everyone has eaten and drunk their fill, they can make do for the night at the rest stop once they leave the city.

He was actually worried about leaving the workers' shed in the city to sleep.

The men from Qin Huai's group all had murderous intent in their eyes; he was afraid that if he lay down, he would lose his head.
