Chapter 384 Making a Deal

Wang Zhongwu looked indifferent. It was easy to earn this little money when his uncle was still alive, but what was the situation of the Wang family now?
Every shop was running at a loss, and the grain harvest on the farm was getting less and less every year. If things continued like this, the whole family, young and old, would have to starve, not to mention that a lot of their property had already been destroyed by that little bastard.

Not to mention two hundred thousand taels, even if it was ten thousand taels, the Wang family would have to scrape together the money.

"Brother Ma should also know that every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor. Since my brother borrowed the money, it is only natural for me to ask him for the money."

Wang Zhongwu almost couldn't hold back his expression. He originally wanted to show off his "deep brotherly love" at this time, but he was afraid that if his father took the debt of two hundred thousand taels seriously, he would pester him.

It's not worth it to lose money just to win the hearts of even a few invisible people.

Just as he was about to leave, Butler Wang, who was lying on the ground, suddenly regained consciousness.

"Second Master, save...save me..."

After saying that, she fainted completely, but her hands were still tightly grasping the corner of his clothes.

Wang Zhongwu was stopped in his tracks by the cry for help and was deeply touched.

Butler Wang has always treated Big Brother like his own son. Although he is not disrespectful to him, he is not as close to him as before. Today, he took the initiative to ask for help. He must have been really heartbroken by Big Brother. If he saves him, this life-saving grace can never be erased...

Ma Daoba had no patience to watch how they huddled together for warmth. He tilted his head and stared at the knife in his hand with squinting eyes. He gently rubbed the blade with his thumb to test its sharpness.

He spent the whole night sharpening the knife himself last night. If he used it to chop someone's neck, he would definitely be able to kill the person easily.

"Well, what happens to you has nothing to do with me. As I said before, give us some money. We also want to celebrate the New Year."

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the people around him moved forward, waving their weapons and rubbing their hands, ready to charge at the boss's command.

No one spoke. Yang Jinfan and the others all looked at Wang Mengwu, waiting for him to speak, without showing any fear at all.

I don’t know what happened, but Wang Mengwu just stood there barefoot with bloodshot eyes, but he didn’t move. Even after being stimulated several times, he didn’t have any extra reaction.

Yang Jinfan couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the talismans she buried in the mansion were too powerful and turned him into a fool?
Something is wrong. Her mysterious skills were taught by the Lord of Guihun Valley himself, and she also had guidance and corrections from the great immortals. How could there be anything wrong with it?
So he is...

Ma Daoba also noticed that something was wrong with him, but he didn't care.

Everyone in Suzhou doesn't know that Mr. Wang is a brainless idiot who lives off his wealth. Even if he has some connection with the government, so what?

The government does not serve the Wang family alone. They also have varying degrees of involvement with the government.

"Brother, you don't want to take the money, do you?"

"That's right. The one lying on the ground is Wang, the most loyal butler who usually stays by his side. Even though he's lying on the ground, this gentleman didn't even move to take a look. Tsk tsk, he's really cruel!"

It is ironic that a person who kills people as easily as chopping melons and vegetables is accusing others of being cruel.

Fortunately, Uncle Wang came back to his senses. He was dazed for a moment when he saw the knife in Ma Daoba's hand, and then he remembered what had just happened.

He couldn't take out the money, but the old woman had it!
"Brother Ma, wait a minute. It's just two hundred thousand taels of silver. When my aunt comes, she will pay it back for me!" It was okay when Wang Mengwu didn't speak, but when he opened his mouth, people felt that he was really a fool, the kind who would drool even if he was cured.

Everyone in the upper-class families of Suzhou City knew about this noble lady from Beijing who had married into the Wang family with a beautiful wedding dress. But for some reason, the noble lady seemed to have been forgotten by everyone over the years and was rarely mentioned. Now that she has been mentioned again, everyone wants to see what new tricks she has.

The noise made by the Wang family had already alarmed people on the entire street, and everyone came out in the wind and snow to see what was going on.

Ma Daoba sneered disdainfully: "Uncle Wang, are you really stupid or do you think we are stupid? Others may not know the little things in your family, but don't I know? If your aunt really recognized you, would the Wang family still go downhill in these years?"

Although I have never seen the real face of the old lady of the Wang family, I have heard of her more or less.

Especially in his father's generation, the old lady of the Wang family was a powerful female hero who pushed the Wang family, which was only moderately wealthy, to the position of the richest family in Suzhou. Even after her husband passed away, it did not affect her much. Instead, she supported the entire family on her own.

He had also heard her name from his father. The only bad thing about this old lady was that she was soft-hearted. She raised two children from her husband's brother's family, but lost her own child. Although it was a girl, she was still her own flesh and blood.

The two children he raised were also ungrateful. Not only did they seize the Wang family's fortune, they also forced the old lady into a desperate situation.

Wang Mengwu stood there awkwardly, only then remembering that he was not wearing any shoes or socks, not even a coat, and was shaking uncontrollably from the cold.

He said with a stiff upper lip: "You don't know, although my aunt handed over the family business to me, she fell ill before she could teach me how to run it. As her nephew, I can't let her teach others while she is sick."

Yang Jinfan was really shocked by his shamelessness. He wanted others to pay for his eating, drinking, gambling and whoring, and the bill was for an old woman who had been treated harshly by him for more than ten years?
If a person has no shame, even ghosts will be afraid of him.

"Uncle, you have only two hundred thousand taels of silver. Hasn't my grandmother relied on you for her living all these years? It was you who received me when I came here. I have been wearing the jade bracelet you gave me. Look!"

She raised her little hands and half rolled up her sleeves, revealing her white wrists, on which she wore a pair of transparent emerald green jade bracelets, which looked particularly dazzling in the white winter snow.

The murderous aura on Ma Daoba's body deepened, and he could not help but put the knife in his hand on Wang Mengwu's neck.

There were exclamations all around.

"What are you standing there for? Catch them! Brothers, Uncle Wang is dishonest. He doesn't like us brothers so much. I guess he doesn't want to pay back the money. In that case, cut off his two arms!"

The thugs in the gambling house quickly took action and controlled everyone. Tao Suer was protected by Chao Yan and no one could get close to her.

Wang Mengwu cried for mercy and shouted, "Brother Ma, let's make a deal!"

Ma Daoba paused the knife in his hand and stared at him with narrowed eyes.

"What deal?"

Wang Mengwu pointed at Yang Jinfan and said, "That's her, my niece. As long as Brother Ma is willing, my niece will be yours!"

Yang Jinfan's face turned cold, and he continued, "She is thirteen, not young anymore. After the New Year, it will be time for us to meet each other. Brother Ma, what do you think..."

Ma Daoba's eyes fell on the little girl wearing the jade bracelet. He glanced at her greasyly several times, and finally turned his head away with disdain.
