Reborn at 80: From Village Scoundrel to Billionaire

"Click~"

Upon hearing this, Liu Bei placed a hand on the wound of the leader, the butler.

"Ah~"

The butler's face contorted in pain as he pleaded repeatedly, "Master Liu... I'm telling the truth... I'm not lying to you... Please stop pressing, please stop pressing..."

Hearing the butler's screams and pleas for mercy, Liu Bei slowly withdrew his hand, his face grim. "How are you going to contact your master?"

"Huh?" The butler didn't react for a moment. "What...what do you mean?"

"What I mean is, if I were to be drowned in a pig cage, how would you immediately inform your master? Do you understand now?"

Liu Bei said coldly, enunciating each word clearly.

"Oh, I...I understand," the butler quickly explained. "Make...make a phone call!"

"Oh, does your master know your specific plan?" Liu Bei pressed.

"No... I don't know. I... I haven't had a chance to tell him yet. Because he never asks me how to do things, he only cares about the result," the butler said, shaking his head.

"Is that so—"

Liu Bei stroked his chin for a moment, then suddenly smiled.

His laugh was utterly ferocious, making the butler's heart pound wildly. He stammered, "Mr...Mr. Liu, I...I've said everything I needed to say, please...please don't hit me anymore, okay?"

"sure!"

"Thank you, Mr. Liu! Thank you, Mr. Liu!" The steward breathed a sigh of relief and quickly expressed his gratitude.

But the next second, Liu Bei changed the subject, "However—you have to do one thing for me! If you do it well, I can let your family go!"

"Ah? My...my family?" The butler panicked and stammered, "Mr. Liu...what...what do you want to do?"

"It's simple!" Liu Bei stroked his chin and said, "I heard that recently a lot of girls have started working in the sex trade in some of the back alleys of the county town. Oh, right, it's the brothel you were talking about. The men of the county town like to go there to try something new!"

"How about this, you call your master. Tell him you not only sent me to the red-light district to sleep with prostitutes, but you also kidnapped my three wives. Tell your master and young master to come and check on them right away!"

"What?" the butler blurted out without hesitation. "Mr. Liu... isn't my young master still locked up at the Da Liu Town Police Station? How can I send him to the red-light district?"

"If I'm not mistaken, your young master should have already returned to his home in the county town by now!" Liu Bei said with a smile.

housekeeper:"……"

He paused, his face full of doubt, "Really...really?"

"Otherwise, why would I ask you to make a phone call? Do you think I'm out of my mind? Would I make such a basic mistake?" Liu Bei's voice suddenly rose several times, becoming very cold.

"hiss!"

The butler gasped in fright, feeling a chill run down his spine that made the hairs on his body stand on end. He stammered, "I...I'll do it, I'll do it. Mr. Liu, please...please don't hurt my family..."

"Don't worry. As long as you do as I say, I guarantee your family's safety!"

Liu Bei smiled, narrowing his eyes. "However—as the saying goes, if you're going to do something, do it thoroughly. How about this? First, call your master. Tell him and his son exactly what I just said. Then, send someone to deliver a letter to your master's woman. The letter should be simple: tell her that your master has gone to the brothel to pick up women. Tell her to hurry over, or she'll miss her chance!"

"Hiss~"

The butler took another deep breath.

Ruthless, too ruthless.

If we were to do that,

Wang Fei and his son will not only be disgraced, but also ruined.

The couple could even turn against each other.

Even if misunderstandings are cleared up and people reconcile, once the seed of hatred is planted, no matter how well the mirror is restored, there will always be cracks.

Given time, once the cracks widen,

The royal family will also be involved in war.

This move is not only ruthless, it's absolutely ruthless.

Liu Bei is too ruthless.

Why did young master Wang Tengfei have to mess with Liu Bei of all people?

well! ! !

"Why aren't you saying anything? Don't you want to do it?"

Liu Bei raised his eyebrows like two swords, his face full of displeasure.

"No, no, no... Master Liu, you misunderstand. I didn't say I wouldn't do it. I was just admiring your foresight, meticulous planning, and thorough consideration; you're practically Zhuge Liang reincarnated..."

"Stop! Stop right now! Your flattery won't work on me!"

"..." The butler was extremely embarrassed.

"Since you're willing to do as I say, it's settled then!" Liu Bei glanced back at Xiao Hei. "Xiao Hei, go and call Ha'er, Dazhuang, Tan Si, Fan Mao'er, and Fan Shitou! Remember, be quick! Don't alert too many people!"

"Woof woof~" Little Black nodded and quickly ran out of the house with its little dog followers.

Liu Bei looked at Widow Li, who was still unconscious on the bed, and had to admit that her figure was truly captivating.

No wonder that kid Fan Ha'er often came to peek.

The allure of a widow to a young boy is truly immense.

We must quickly dress Widow Li before the servants arrive.

Otherwise, it will be awkward when the bastards arrive.

Just do it.

Liu Bei helped Widow Li put on her clothes.

After taking care of it, he told Widow Li to continue lying still.

After arranging everything, Liu Bei glanced at the three stewards and said, "Listen up, all of you. Don't tell anyone about you stripping Widow Li naked. Keep it all to yourself. If even a whisper gets out and others find out that Widow Li was naked and in a room with several men, making her lose face in the village and forcing her and her child to be humiliated and forced to leave their home, I will chop you three up and feed you to the dogs!!!"

"..."

The three butlers shivered almost simultaneously.

I got goosebumps all over my body.

They could indeed see a hint of real killing intent in Liu Bei's eyes.

That murderous intent wasn't feigned; it was very real.

The sight terrified the three of them, leaving them utterly unable to muster the slightest resistance.

"Don't worry, Mr. Liu, we definitely won't tell."

"Yes, yes, I... I swear to God! If this gets out, may I be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!"

"I...I swear! If word gets out, may my entire family be wiped out!"

……

Only after hearing the three housekeepers swear oaths to heaven one by one did Liu Bei feel relieved.

His biggest fear was that the news of Widow Li being completely naked would spread.

The mother and son would be subjected to gossip and rumors, and they would be too ashamed to stay in the village, forcing them to leave their hometown.

In 1981, it was incredibly difficult for a woman who had lost her husband to leave her hometown with her teenage son and try to make a living.

He really couldn't bear to see that scene happen.

"You'd better remember the oath you just swore. Otherwise, even if God doesn't punish you, I will!"

"Brother Bei, Brother Bei, what's wrong? What happened? Why did Xiao Hei bring me to Widow Li's house?"
