"Wei Zhongxian, you, you, you…"
Zhang Shou looked at Wei Zhongxian angrily. His mouth was trembling, but he didn't know what to say.
Wei Zhongxian had already made it clear that if he didn't take the money, he would kill the entire British Public House before committing suicide.
He couldn't think of any words to threaten someone who didn't even care about life and death.
When a scholar meets a soldier, he can't explain his reasoning.
"Third Master, what's going on?”
"Third Uncle, save me. I don't want to die.”
"Third brother, what's going on? What happened?"
“......”
Soon, everyone in the British Public House was arrested. They were all panicking and at a loss.
Seeing Zhang Meng, everyone seemed to have a backbone and cried for help.
"Swoosh!"
Wei Zhongxian pulled out the long saber of the East Chamber barbarian beside him and said coldly,""Zhang Rong, do you have fifty thousand gold taels?”
"Eunuch Wei, the residence really can't afford that much money.”
Zhang Rong said helplessly.
Wei Zhongxian didn't say anything. He waved his hand at the East Chamber."Go, bring the little prince here."
He did not follow the usual routine and kill some irrelevant people first. Instead, he directly targeted the three-year-old Crown Prince Zhang Mao.
"Yes, Supervisor!"
The two foreigners from the East Chamber agreed and brought Zhang Mao to Wei Zhongxian.
Seeing this, Zhang Meng couldn't sit still anymore. His body began to struggle violently as he shouted,"Wei Zhongxian, stop!"
"Wahhh…"
Zhang Mao was frightened by the scene in front of him and cried loudly.
Wei Zhongxian's face was cold as he placed the long knife on Zhang Mao's neck. He looked at Zhang Rong and said calmly,""Third Master, don't do something that you will regret. I will ask one last time, can the British Public House fork out fifty thousand gold taels?”
At this moment, he was like a crazy gambler, making a huge gamble.
It was obvious that his act of forcefully barging into the British Public House would definitely cause a sensation in the entire city of Beijing tomorrow morning. However, as long as he could get 50,000 gold taels from the British Public House, not only would he be fine, but he would also be highly regarded by Zhu Qiyu.
As a dog, one had to have the awareness to solve problems for their master.
"I..."
Zhang He looked extremely conflicted. He knew very well what it meant to take out 50,000 gold taels at this moment. However, if he did not take it out, the British Public House would be finished.
"Third brother!"
"Third Master!"
"Third Uncle!"
Everyone from the British Public House looked at Zhang He pleadingly.
They didn't want to die, especially if the British Public House could afford to pay for it. It would be too humiliating.
"Swoosh!"
Wei Zhongxian pressed down on the long knife. The sharp blade cut through Zhang Mao's skin, and a smear of bright red blood seeped out.
Zhang Mao cried even louder in pain."Mother, mother…"
"Wei Zhongxian, you're ruthless enough. Let Mao Er go and I'll give you money.”
Zhang Meng gritted his teeth and said coldly.
He saw clearly that Wei Zhongxian was a lunatic. If he didn't take out 50,000 gold taels today, Wei Zhongxian might really slaughter the entire British Public House.
"Haha!"
A smile appeared on Wei Zhongxian's face when he heard this. He took the long knife from Zhang Mao's neck and waved at the two East Chamber barbarians who were holding Zhang Mao down."Third Master, if you had agreed earlier, we wouldn't have come to this, right?”
After saying that, he personally went forward to pat the dust off Zhang Rong's body.
At this moment, Wei Zhongxian had returned to his previous honest and sincere appearance. He smiled and looked very kind.
If he hadn't said it with his own eyes, who would have thought that he had just slaughtered the entire British Public House?
"Humph!"
" Humph!" Zhang He snorted and quickly walked over to pick up Zhang Mao. He carefully examined his wound.
If something happened to Zhang Mao, how could he face his big brother in the future?
Wei Zhongxian did not care about Zhang Wei's attitude. He went forward and reprimanded the group of East Chamber barbarians who were holding the British Public House in custody."Look at all of you. How can you be so unreasonable? What did I teach you before you came?”
After he finished speaking, he changed his expression and bowed deeply to everyone from the British Public House."Everyone, I'm really sorry. It's all my fault for not managing my subordinates well and causing you to be frightened.”
Everyone from the British Public House was terrified. They looked at Wei Zhongxian's two completely different faces as if they were looking at a smiling tiger. They didn't even dare to breathe loudly, let alone blame him.
"Second brother, go and get the money.”
After confirming that Zhang Mao had only suffered some superficial injuries, Zhang He said to Zhang He.
Looking at the smiling Wei Zhongxian in front of him, an inexplicable chill rose in his heart. He made up his mind that tomorrow he would unite with the nobles in the city and ask Zhu Qiyu for an explanation.
"Are we going to pay like this?"
Zhang He glanced at Wei Zhongxian, his eyes filled with unwillingness.
When had the British Public House ever suffered such humiliation?
Zhang Rong shook his head slightly and said in a low voice,""Second brother, go get the money and send Wei Zhongxian away first.”
Facing Wei Zhongxian who was like a mad dog, it was definitely not the best way to fight head-on.
"Alright, I'll listen to you."
Zhang Rong nodded and suppressed the anger in his heart. He turned around and left with a few servants.
Wei Zhongxian looked around and found Jiao Jing and Chen Mao hiding in the crowd. He was slightly stunned, and then he walked over with a smile."Isn't this Prince Consort Jiao and Marquis Tranquil Yang? I really didn't expect to see the two of you in the British Public House. What a coincidence.”
"Swoosh!"
When Jiao Jing and Chen Mao saw that Wei Zhongxian had discovered them, their expressions changed and they felt their scalps go numb.
The two of them had witnessed Wei Zhongxian's actions. It was definitely not a good thing to be bitten by such a mad dog.
"Greetings, Governor Wei!"
Jiao Jing and Chen Mao looked at each other and forced a smile on their faces. They braced themselves and stood up.
He had no choice. He had already been discovered by Wei Zhongxian. He could not hide anymore.
"Haha, you two don't need to be too nervous.”
"Since I've met you here, I can save myself the trouble of going to your residence. The British Public House is offering fifty thousand gold taels. How much do you two think is appropriate?”
Wei Zhongxian asked Jiao Jing and Chen Mao with a smile.
His current gaze was like that of a landlord.
"This…"
Jiao Jing and Chen Mao had witnessed the entire process of Wei Zhongxian demanding money from Zhang Xiong, so they didn't dare to speak carelessly.
They knew very well that Wei Zhongxian, who was smiling and seemed kind, was actually a ruthless mad dog.
