Su Liuer accurately saw the panic, confusion and anger in the young man's eyes.
She squatted down, looked him in the eye, and asked seriously, "Are you here to close us down, or do you want compensation? Think about it carefully before making your choice. I'll listen to you."
The man had forgotten to continue crying. He frowned and asked doubtfully, "You really will listen to me? Whatever I say is what it is?"
Su Liuer nodded. She glanced at the crowd around her and assured, "Everyone is listening. I mean what I say. I'll listen to you on how to handle this matter next."
The man's eyes were full of hesitation. He subconsciously looked up at someone in the crowd. It was just a very brief glance, but it was enough for Zhu Yunxi to confirm who he was looking at.
"Make a decision quickly. After all, this child needs to be buried early, right?" Su Liuer said softly.
The young man tightened his grip around the corpse, then gritted his teeth and said to Su Liuer, "I want compensation! One hundred taels of silver!"
The crowd was in an uproar!
One hundred taels!
This is really a huge opening!
In this world where people can be bought and sold, a little girl of three or four years old is worthless. In fact, when the Zhu family wanted to sell Zhu Hongan, they only sold him for eight hundred coins.
So before Su Liuer could even answer, someone started to speak up for her.
"One hundred taels of silver is too much! Even if your little girl grows up, she won't be able to earn a hundred taels of silver for you! You are clearly blackmailing me."
Although this sounds very inhumane, it is true. One hundred taels of silver is really a lot of money. There are really many people who cannot earn that much money in their entire life.
The young man turned his head and glared at the person who had spoken, angrily saying, "If my child had survived, maybe he could have made money by doing business like this Madam Su! Now that she's dead, there's nothing left! I'm asking for a hundred taels of silver, not too much, even a thousand taels is not too much!"
After saying that, he turned to look at Su Liuer and said, "Will you give me this money? If not, I won't leave! I'll stay here with my daughter. I wonder how you can continue your business!"
At this moment, the man whom the young man had just glanced at frowned and quietly left the crowd.
Zhu Yunxi followed quietly.
In the restaurant, Su Liuer had already stood up. She looked down at the young man and said:
"You're right. If she hadn't died, her future would have been infinite. No one can predict it. She might have made a lot of money, so one hundred taels of silver isn't much."
When the man heard this, his eyes lit up.
Su Liuer continued, "But I don't have that much money on me. Do you want to wait for me here? Or come with me to the bank to get the money?"
After hearing this, the man frowned and thought for a while, then stood up holding the child's body and said, "I'll go with you!" Otherwise, what if the woman ran away?
Su Liuer nodded and said to Feng Zhengqing, "Boss Feng, can you please excuse me for a moment?"
The two of them went aside, and after a while Su Liuer took the young man out of the restaurant.
Feng Zhengqing immediately said to everyone, "Everyone, please disperse! If you're curious, you can follow and take a look! But if you haven't finished your meal, I suggest you eat first, otherwise it will be a waste."
The crowd dispersed immediately, some followed to watch the fun, some went home, and many continued to eat.
Feng Zhengqing called a waiter and said a few words to him, and then they left the restaurant together, but in different directions.
