Seeing Ma Xiaoyao agree, Gao Shanshui breathed a sigh of relief. He had made two preparations. On the one hand, he tried to persuade him with good words and promised huge profits. If Ma Xiaoyao refused to agree, Gao Shanshui would have no choice but to implement the second plan.
Take the next step and kill him directly, so that Ma Xiaoyao will never be able to speak.
To be honest, Gao Shanshui admired Ma Xiaoyao's ability very much, and he really didn't want to kill him unless it was absolutely necessary.
"When the matter is over, I will give you ten million taels of gold." Gao Shanshui said.
"Okay, I'll wait." After saying this, Ma Xiaoyao turned and left.
Looking at Ma Xiaoyao's leaving figure, Gao Shanshui let out a breath and said to himself: "Finally, I've stabilized this guy."
…
In the front hall.
A group of distinguished people were shouting and cursing.
"Let Zhuge Liuyun come out and see me!"
"Stop hiding and come out quickly!"
"I must pay back the money today, otherwise I won't leave!"
"Do you think we can't do anything to you if you keep hiding and not showing up?"
"come out!!!"
"Come out quickly!!!"
…
"I'm here." Zhuge Liuyun walked in from the outside with steady steps.
"Hulala..."
A group of people immediately surrounded Zhuge Liuyun, and then demanded the payment in unison.
"Everyone, please be patient!" Zhuge Liuyun said loudly: "If you have anything to say, say it calmly, don't be anxious, and don't get angry."
"If you don't pay back the money you owe us, can we not be anxious?" A red-faced old man shouted.
"Who said I won't pay back the money? Zhuge Liuyun's face darkened: "Our Zhuge family will never default on the debt! The money we owe you will be paid back in full!" At this point, Zhuge Liuyun paused.
: "It's just that the Zhuge family can't afford so much money now..."
"If you can't get the money, then use your real estate as a mortgage, and use your Zhuge family's shops and houses to pay off the debt!" Everyone said in unison.
Zhuge Liuyun frowned: "Selling real estate is the behavior of a prodigal, and I, Zhuge Liuyun, will never do it."
"You can't get the money and you're not willing to sell the property, so what do you want? Do you want to default on your debt?"
"Don't worry, everyone! I have already figured out a way to pay off the debt."
"any solution?"
"...I decided to use ancestral stones to offset the debt! As we all know, our Zhuge family has collected some precious stones, most of which were inherited from our ancestors. Every stone is a treasure. Use them to offset the debt. You will definitely
You won’t suffer any loss.”
"Stop fooling us!" A tall man sneered: "I have received news a long time ago that the stones collected by your Zhuge family are defective and worthless."
"That's sheer nonsense!" Zhuge Liuyun's face darkened: "Who told you that the stones in our family's collection are defective? Don't be alarmist here! It will ruin the reputation of our Zhuge family!"
"What I said is true!"
"Bullshit facts!"
"I have witnesses!"
"Witness? Who?"
"Don't worry, the witnesses will come out soon."
…
A trace of doubt flashed in Zhuge Liuyun's eyes. The other party has witnesses? What witnesses? Where did the witnesses come from? The other party must be alarmist! Deliberately scaring me! Well, that must be the case!
"We can testify!"
"The stones collected by the Zhuge family are indeed defective!"
"No value at all!"
"Don't be fooled!"
…
A group of people suddenly walked in outside, and they were the stone gambling masters invited by Zhuge Liuyun.
"You..." Zhuge Liuyun's expression suddenly changed: "Why are you here..."
"We heard that Chief Zhuge wanted to use those stones to deceive people. Out of morality, we must come out and expose this matter." Everyone said in unison: "Don't be fooled. The stones collected by the Zhuge family are all defective products.
, worthless at all!”
"Chief Zhuge, what else do you have to say now?" The people who wanted to pay the debt began to express their anger: "You are so black-hearted, you actually want to use a pile of broken stones to fool us! It's so shameless! It's so despicable!"
"Hahaha..." Zhuge Liuyun suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, his laughter full of anger and sadness: "I understand! I finally understand! It turns out that you are in a group! You are working together to plot against the Zhuge family! I
I just saw it through... I'm so stupid!"
"Chief Zhuge, don't talk nonsense, we don't know each other at all!"
"Yes, today is the first time we meet!"
"Don't ruin our reputation!"
…
The person who wanted the account and the group of stone gamblers shook their heads and denied it. This matter must not be admitted, otherwise the reputation will be ruined.
"Huh!" Zhuge Liuyun snorted coldly: "A bunch of villains who dare to do things but don't dare to act! I despise you!"
"Chief Zhuge, we are not here to quarrel with you today. We are here to demand an account. You must give us an accurate answer today!" A bald man shouted loudly: "If we can't get the money, we will use the property as a mortgage.
For example, the manor below us is very valuable..."
These wolf cubs are so despicable!
Zhuge Liuyun cursed bitterly in his heart. He finally understood. Today, these people are here to force the palace. They want to take the opportunity to extort the Zhuge family's property. Once they succeed, the Zhuge family's reputation will be completely ruined. They can't do it.
If it's good, it will seriously damage the vitality. If the time comes, if it is tormented by other hostile forces, the Zhuge family may collapse...
The other party has already come to the door, which is tantamount to a quarrel. If they don't give a satisfactory explanation today, these people will not give up.
What depresses Zhuge Liuyun the most is that the backstage of this group of people is very strong. They work together to stabilize the Zhuge family and want to use violence... In the end, the Zhuge family will definitely suffer.
Zhuge Liuyun felt pain in his heart at the thought that the foundation built by his ancestors would be destroyed in his own hands.
Descendants are unworthy!
Zhuge Liuyun seemed to have aged dozens of years instantly, and he looked very depressed.
what to do?
How to deal with these people?
Do we really want to sell off the property?
You must know that these industries were built with blood and lives by the Zhuge family... Wouldn't it be too cowardly to use them to pay off debts now?
One wrong move and everything is lost!
I shouldn't have been eager to develop my business in the first place, and I shouldn't have believed in those sanctimonious hypocrites... Sigh... What's the use of talking about this now? It's too late, too late!
Just when Zhuge Liuyun was anxious and unbearable, Ma Xiaoyao suddenly walked out of the crowd: "Chief Zhuge, if I can help the Zhuge family overcome the current crisis, how can you thank me?"
"Huh?" Zhuge Liuyun was stunned.
A group of people who wanted to pay were also stunned.
And those stone betting masters were also stunned...
In the end, Zhuge Liuyun was the first to come to his senses. He looked at Ma Xiaoyao with sharp eyes: "Mr. Ma, what did you just say? Can you help the Zhuge family survive the current crisis?"
"Yes." Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "As long as the Zhuge family gives me enough benefits! I will help!"
"Mr. Ma, what nonsense are you talking about!" Gao Shanshui stepped forward quickly and reached out to grab Ma Xiaoyao's arm: "Mr. Ma, have you forgotten the agreement between us?"
Ma Xiaoyao turned his head and glanced at Gao Shanshui, and said with an indifferent expression: "Let go of your hand first."
"you……"
"Let go of your hands."
"..."
Under Ma Xiaoyao's gaze, Gao Shanshui slowly let go of his hand, but he still looked at Ma Xiaoyao, "Mr. Ma, you are a smart man, you shouldn't make stupid decisions, right?"
"You are right, I will never make a stupid decision." At this point, Ma Xiaoyao turned to look at Zhuge Liuyun, who had a gloomy expression on his face: "Chief Zhuge, you haven't answered my question yet."
Zhuge Liuyun stared at Ma Xiaoyao without blinking: "Should I believe you?"
"Do you have any other choice?" Ma Xiaoyao shrugged.
Zhuge Liuyun smiled, but it was a bitter smile: "You are right, I really have no other choice now..." At this point, Zhuge Liuyun took a deep breath: "Mr. Ma, as long as you can help the Zhuge family survive the
To survive the current crisis, I will promise you three conditions. No matter what conditions you put forward, I will agree to you! Even if you ask me to die, I will agree! Of course, if things are beyond my ability, then
no solution anymore."
"Well, I'm very satisfied with the three conditions proposed by Chief Zhuge." Ma Xiaoyao grinned: "Actually, it's very simple to solve the crisis at hand. Just move out those rocks."
"Stone?" Zhuge Liuyun was stunned.
"Mr. Ma! Do you really want to do this?" Gao Shanshui's expression changed drastically: "Don't you think about the consequences?"
Ma Xiaoyao glanced at the corner of his mouth and said calmly: "Chief Zhuge, someone is threatening me, don't you care?"
"Mr. Gao! If you threaten Mr. Ma again, I won't be polite to you." Zhuge Liuyun said coldly. He is not a fool. He can distinguish who is a friend and who is an enemy. This Gao Shanshui repeatedly
The threats he made to Ma Xiaoyao this time clearly had bad intentions.
After being threatened by Zhuge Liuyun, Gao Shanshui suddenly did not dare to speak. Although he was also a celebrity, he was not worthy of recognition in front of a big man like Zhuge Liuyun. If Zhuge Liuyun was determined to kill him, Gao Shanshui
It's really irresistible.
"Chief Zhuge, the stones collected by your family are all treasures, no, to be precise, they are treasures among treasures. Every stone is worth a fortune." Ma Xiaoyao said in a leisurely manner: "It is really worth using it to pay off debts.
More than enough.”
"Are you so sure?" Zhuge Liuyun asked in a deep voice.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Since I dare to say it in public, I am confident! In fact, it is very simple to prove whether what I said is trustworthy. Just cut open all the stones."
