Ling Yun glanced at the three hundred taels on the table. Although he was moved, he did not take it directly.
Instead, he kept a straight face, grunted, and pointedly said, "Old man Xu, have you forgotten the contents of the bet with the boy? It doesn't matter. If you have forgotten, the boy will help you recall it."
Hearing this, Xu Qiusheng's brows suddenly rose with a sad look on his face, and he understood what he meant, which was to fulfill his bet and kneel down to him.
But today, just now, he had just become a lifter with his front foot, how could he kneel down and kneel to others with his back foot?
If this is the case, it is tantamount to slapping him in the face and making him lose all face. How will he see others in the future?
After thinking about it, he didn't mention anything about kneeling. He just took out three hundred taels of silver notes from his body and threw it on the table.
At the same time, I hope that Ling Yun, for the sake of the three hundred taels of silver notes, will not pursue the issue of kneeling again.
If he really had to humble himself and kneel down to beg for mercy, it would be more painful than if he couldn't win the exam.
What's more, the man in front of me is in his weak years, and he has already passed his thirties. How can he open his mouth and remove his legs?
When Ling Yun saw Xu Qiusheng motionless and turned his head away from him, he knew what he was planning.
But how could Ling Yun get what he wanted? Of course, if the roles were reversed, the person in front of him would never let him go.
Ling Yun narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Why, old man Xu, are you going to go back on your word today in front of everyone? But don't forget, you and I still have the bet in our hands."
After saying this, Ling Yun took the contract in his hand and shook it towards Xu Qiusheng. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do about it.
The angrier Xu Qiusheng gets, the more energetic Ling Yun becomes, wondering if you will dare to meddle in other people's business and point fingers in the future.
If you don't teach these people a profound lesson, they will never remember it.
Only when it hurts them will they realize that even good people can eat human flesh and chew on human bones when they become evil.
Having achieved the goal of disgusting Xu Qiusheng, Ling Yun continued to threaten, "Old man Xu, if you want to save face and fail to fulfill your bet today, tomorrow I, Ling Yun, will dare to file a bunch of papers and sue you to the Yamen, asking the prefect to make the decision for me.
"
Hearing this, Xu Qiusheng was shocked and his eyes were split open. He stared at Ling Yun fiercely, then lowered his head and thought hard, as if thinking about what to do.
If you’re scared, that’s right!
People who base their happiness on the pain of others do not deserve sympathy.
Ling Yun threatened again and again, "When the time comes, it will not be embarrassing in front of these people, but the entire Annan city, and even the entire Annan province."
Ling Yun stopped to take a sip of tea, moisten his throat, and then continued, "Don't blame the boy, you are bullying me too much, and you want to avoid the kneeling bet. You need to promise the boy three things."
After Ling Yun finished speaking, he looked at Xu Qiusheng.
Seeing that Xu Qiusheng lowered his head and said nothing, he was not impatient, but sat down and continued to drink tea slowly.
Do you want to say that Ling Yun hates Xu Qiusheng?
It's not that I hate him, I just can't stand what he did. It's natural.
What is the meaning of what he just said? Do you really want to sue him to the Yamen?
Of course not, this is just a way for Ling Yun to intimidate him one after another.
Thinking of the day when the bet was made, Xu Qiusheng and Nasi actually laughed at him for only daring to bet a hundred taels, and then even made a bet of three hundred taels.
From that time on, Ling Yun had expected that this guy definitely had a lot of money on him. If he didn't take out all the money this time, he would not let him go anyway.
This is his rich man, and Ling Yun always takes good care of rich men.
However, he does not press hard, and dogs will jump over the wall when they are anxious. If they really force him to kneel down, it will be contrary to his original idea, and the gain will not be worth the loss!
So after Ling Yun had reached this point in his words, he didn't think about continuing to talk. He started to stir him up and put pressure on him invisibly, making him more and more anxious.
After setting up Xu Qiusheng, of course he continued to collect debts. He turned his head, looked at the other people in the inn, and said with an evil smile, "Everyone, I have let you down today, but since the victory has been decided,
This kid is a little better, so I would like to ask you all to take out the silver coins in the bet, and after the kid confirms them one by one, delete his name and leave!"
When everyone heard his words, there was a commotion.
Faced with this situation, Ling Yun slammed the table hard and shouted, "Shut up, everyone."
After they calmed down, he continued, "If you want to go out this way today, you must pay a penny, otherwise...hehe!"
He didn't finish the words, but said it with a smile, but he thought these people could understand the meaning.
"Li Changfu, fifty taels."
Ling Yun was ready, took out the bet and put it on the table, sat upright and started to call the names.
The person whose name was called stumbled forward, wiped his tears, and cried to Ling Yun, "Master Jieyuan, can you... can you leave five taels for me? I'll give you the rest, so I'll stay for five taels."
"Two, this is my traveling expenses back home. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back. I'd like to ask Mr. Jie Yuan to show your kindness and let me go."
Ling Yun was stunned and glanced at Li Changfu with hatred. He wanted to show his noble hand and let you go?
Funny, if it were him, would you let him go?
His sharp gaze swept over everyone, as if he was about to pierce something, and he said calmly, "Let you go, that's not what you said just now."
Ling Yun paused, thought for a moment, and then said disdainfully to them, "I still remember you said that if I can't pay you all the money, I won't be able to get out of this door, right?"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but step back, and no one dared to answer.
"No one said anything. What the boy said is the truth. In this case, how dare you let the boy let you go? Don't you feel ashamed? Or is it that the sage's book has made you forget your shame?"
The man handed over the fifty taels of silver with a sad face and gritted his teeth.
It felt so good to receive money. Ling Yun felt so happy at the moment that he could hardly restrain himself from humming. However, in order to maintain his serious side, he waved to Yang Ergou and said in a low voice, "Brother Yang, come and help.
Check to see if the number is correct."
When Yang Ergou heard this, he was stunned for a moment. After he came to his senses, he immediately came up and said respectfully, "Okay! Master Yun."
After calling Yang Ergou to take stock, Ling Yun breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, if he couldn't help laughing, his purpose would be too obvious.
So he continued to call the names, "Next, Yang Changping, eighty taels."
