Chapter 27 Burn it for me

Li Yue asked with a pale face: "I don't know how much the third lady thinks the compensation is appropriate?"

If it was a sum she could not afford even if she died, she would rather be sent to the county government.

Luo Wanshu smiled slightly: "Not much, 2 taels of silver is fine."

Li Yue rolled her eyelids, her heart almost stopped beating.You want me 2 taels for a child, why don't you grab it!
Just when Li Yue was about to say, "I'm not worth 2 taels, I'd better ask the third lady to take me away", Luo Wanshu looked at Fengyue Zhai's half-burned main building: "Take Li's shopkeeper's Meaning, half of your main building is worth 1 taels, so the whole main building is worth 2 taels?"

Li Yue was stunned.Can the account be calculated like this?

"Since it is to compensate the child, we must take his thoughts into account. I asked when I came here, and he really wanted to watch a grand fireworks. Otherwise, I would burn the remaining half of the main building to make my son happy. how?"

Li Yue was naturally unwilling to agree. Her building could still be used after some repairs, but it was burned down, and Fengyue Zhai disappeared from Anyang City.

"Miss San, this is inappropriate... You give Caomin a period of time, and Caomin will try his best to raise money."

Luo Wanshu stared at her coldly: "Li Yue, this is the end of the matter, do you think you still have room to negotiate terms with me? Either burn down the building, or go to the Yamen with me."

Yan Ningrui, who watched the excitement for a long time, followed suit and clapped his hands: "Mother, the baby wants to watch the fireworks!"

Li Yue was like a mourning concubine, her face was pale and she couldn't speak a word.

"My patience is limited, and I hope shopkeeper Li will make a decision sooner."

Luo Wanshu threw such a big problem back to Li Yue.Whether it is asking for money or burning down the building, they have stepped on Li Yue's bottom line, and now it depends on which one she is more reluctant to part with.

She looked up at Luo Wanshu, holding a whip in her bare hand, and knocked it down casually, as if she was very sure that she would be sent to the county government, and she would come out alive.

Li Yue was afraid. If the money is gone, she can make money again. If the building burns down, she can rebuild it. If her life is gone, everything will be lost.

Ever since Luo Wanshu appeared outside Fengyue Zhai, more and more people gathered to watch the fun, Li Yue didn't dare to raise her head, for fear of meeting other people's mocking eyes.

After a while, she asked uncertainly: "As long as the building is burned down, will our account be written off?"

Luo Wanshu: "That's right."

Finally, Li Yue lowered her head, choked with sobs, and said intermittently: "Since the young master wants to watch the fireworks, let the third lady do it."

Luo Wanshu showed a smile: "Shopkeeper Li is a sensible person."

After the words fell, Luo Wanshu gave an order: "Come here!"

"Subordinates are here."

"Burn it for me."

"Yes!"

Two government soldiers rushed into Fengyue Zhai with already lit torches.Li Yue's men wanted to stop them, but how could they be opponents of well-trained soldiers?Tong Tong was kicked aside.

Li Yue watched helplessly as the government soldiers set the other half of the building on fire with torches, and the higher and higher flames made her eyes turn scarlet.

The main building of Fengyuezhai and the buildings on both sides are not adjacent to each other. In the evening, there is no wind in the air, only heat rushes and spreads around.

Luo Wanshu looked at the scene in front of her with satisfaction, pinched Yan Ningrui's armpit with both hands, and lifted him up.

The crackling sound of burning wood, accompanied by sparks, came to my ears.

She asked, "Rarity, are the fireworks any good?"

Yan Ningrui had never seen such a battle before, his eyes widened in surprise.
