Chapter 517: Buy forcing and selling

"Hmph!" Hearing this, the stout middle-aged man snorted coldly, stood up, and led his subordinates away.

The bearded middle-aged man left immediately. When he passed by Tan Zong, he deliberately glanced at Tan Zong, his eyes full of contempt.

Seeing this, the rest of the people in the room stood up to say goodbye, and their eyes were filled with sympathy when they looked at Tan Zong: the stout middle-aged and the bearded middle-aged man would never give up, and Tan Zong would suffer in the end.

"Boss Li, this is an 800 tael of silver bill. Let's complete the procedures." After the people left, Tan Zong took out a 500 tael of silver bill and three 100 taels of silver bills from his body and placed it in front of Boss Li.

"Young Master, you may not know that you just came to the capital. Those two people just now are not ordinary people. If you take over this inn, it will be difficult to drive." Boss Li looked at the silver notes, raised his head, and said to Tan Zong with a serious expression, "Young Master, think about it again, so as not to suffer a great loss."

"Boss Li's kindness is understood by his heart. The world is bright and bright, and I don't believe that they dare to do anything wrong." Tan Zong smiled slightly and said to Boss Li indifferently.

To be honest, Tan Zong was not even afraid of Duke Wei's Mansion, so he would not care about the two slutty, stout middle-aged people and the bearded middle-aged people.

"Young Master, although you have the highest price, I can't sell this inn to you." Boss Li hesitated for a moment and smiled bitterly at Tan Zong, "It's really not to hide it. Although it's a good thing to have too much money, I still leave the capital to Anran."

"How about this, I will stay here today. If nothing happens, let's settle this matter." Boss Li said this. Tan Zong naturally knew what he was thinking about, so he smiled slightly and sat down on the chair beside him.

"That's best, that's best, go and put on the Tieguanyin I treasured." Boss Li breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this and ordered the friend beside him, since Tan Zong was willing to stay and solve this matter, it would be no better.

Tan Zong and Qiao Yu were drinking tea leisurely, while San Qiao seized this opportunity to ask Boss Li for his experience in opening an inn, and took a pen and paper to write it down one by one, with a very positive attitude.

Boss Li originally thought that Tan Zong wanted to run the inn, but later he found out that it was Sanqiao who wanted to buy the inn. He was quite surprised. After all, Sanqiao was just a girl, and Tan Zong actually dared to buy the inn for her.

Although he was surprised, Boss Li saw that Tan Zong and others were calm and composed, he probably had some origins. Otherwise, how could he be so calm? Therefore, he told Sanqiao about the business of opening an inn, which benefited a lot.

As noon approached, Boss Li held a banquet at home to entertain Tan Zong: Since Tan Zong had to stay here for his reasons, he could not let Tan Zong go out for dinner.

"I said, who is in charge here?" The atmosphere at the table was relaxed and harmonious. Just as everyone was about to finish their meal, a sarcastic voice rang in the yard. A dozen big men walked in. The leader was a bald man, in his thirties, bare-handed, with a tattoo of a green dragon on his chest, with a fang-flapping claws, and looked quite scary.

"The third brother is here, hurry up, please invite me in the house, please invite me in the house." Boss Li frowned slightly when he saw the bald man, and then smiled and greeted me.

This third brother is a famous underworld brother in the local area, and is responsible for managing the area where Dongsheng Inn is located. If he comes, it must be related to the stout middle-aged man.

"Oh, it's time to eat!" The bald man walked into the hall, looked at Tan Zong and others sitting at the wine table, and slapped a machete on the table with a snap. He picked up a chicken leg on the table, and started to bite it as if no one was around, while chewing his mouth, "Your life is so comfortable, unlike our brothers, who want to eat or not, it's pitiful!"

"Hurry, bring a seat for third brother." Seeing this, Boss Li shouted to the friend beside him, and the friend quickly brought a stool to the bald man.

"Boss Li, we're ready to eat, go to the front yard to take a look." Without waiting for the bald man to sit down, Tan Zong stood up and said to Boss Li, leading Qiao Yu and Sanqiao to the door.

"Why, I look down on you and don't want to have dinner with you?" The bald man sneered when he saw this, reached out and slapped the table.

With a huh, the big men standing at the door immediately blocked the way of Tan Zong and the other two, and they were ready to go, staring at Tan Zong and the others with a fierce look.

"San brother, third brother, this young man is really full." Seeing this, Boss Li hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over and smiled at the bald man, "San brother, what's wrong with coming this time?"

"The brothers have been spending a lot recently, so I naturally have to raise the monthly expenses a little." The bald man glanced at Tan Zong, and said casually while holding the wine pot.

"How much?" The cost in the bald man's mouth naturally refers to the protection fee. When Boss Li heard this, he knew that he had come to Tan Zong at this time and asked with a smile.

"Not much." The bald man put down the wine pot in his hand and stretched out his five fingers with his right hand at Boss Li, "Five times."

"Five times!" Although Boss Li was prepared for a long time and knew that the bald man would deliberately make things difficult for Tan Zong, he was still shocked when he heard that he wanted to raise the protection fee to five times.

The protection fee for bald heads is about 20% of the inn's profit, that is, if the protection fee is increased to five times, and the wages of those employees will be paid, Tan Zong will have to pay money every month, which is too cruel and will not give Tan Zong a way out.

"Brother Third, you are proud of yourself. Five times is too much." Boss Li quickly came to his senses and said to the bald head with a smile on his face.

"Boss Li, brothers, you have to have a meal too." The bald man shook the chicken leg that he had eaten in his hand on the ground and said to Boss Li with a blank expression, "I will not only tell Boss Li about the increase in the cost, but also charge the next three years in advance."

"Three...three years." Boss Li couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this. This was too ridiculous and he was about to force people to the dead.

"Of course, if Boss Li has difficulties, the third brother can understand it." The bald man looked at Boss Li and smiled gloomyly, "But if the brothers under the third brother offend something, I hope Boss Li will be more grateful."

This is the threat of being naked. Boss Li couldn't help but look at Tan Zong, and a helpless look appeared in his eyes. If these gangsters make trouble, the inn business would not be able to do it.

"Is five times too little? How about ten times?" Seeing this, Tan Zong smiled slightly and said to the bald head.

"Why, are you not convinced?" The bald man knew that Tan Zong was talking sarcastically, picked up the machete on the table, stuck out his tongue and licked the blade, and looked at Tan Zong gloomyly.

When Tan Zong heard this, he smiled without saying a word. The bald man was just a little man and was not worthy of his concern.

"You are fucking looking for death." Seeing that Tan Zong ignored him, the bald man suddenly felt that his face had been swept away. He couldn't help but be furious and walked towards Tan Zong with a machete. Anyway, he was ordered to come this time, and there was someone behind him, so he was not afraid of making things big.

"Stop the anger of the third brother, stop the anger of the third brother." Seeing this, Boss Li quickly stopped the bald head and said with a smile on his face, "He is a foreigner and doesn't understand the rules. Why should the third brother be as knowledgeable as him?"

At this moment, a messy footsteps came from the gate of the courtyard, and a group of people wearing public uniforms walked in. Judging from the standard of public uniforms, they were public officials from the Ministry of Justice.

"Inspector Zhao, you are such a rare guest. What wind has blown you." Boss Li complained in his heart when he saw this. He knew that these people from the Ministry of Justice were called by middle-aged men with beards, so he smiled and said to the leading middle-aged man with a national face.

The middle-aged man with a national character face named Zhao, is a senior inspector of the Ministry of Justice. This time he came here to make trouble for Tan Zong and teach him a lesson, hoping that he could retreat and withdraw from the competition in the inn.

"Come, take them away." Inspection inspector Zhao glanced at the people at the scene, pointed his hand at Tan Zong and Qiao Yu, Sanqiao said in a deep voice to the people behind him.

Several men immediately walked towards Tan Zong with great momentum, holding chains for arresting people. Seeing this, the bald man sneered and said to inspector Zhao, "Mr. Zhao, you must come first and then come in this matter."

As soon as the bald man finished speaking, his great man came forward to him and blocked the way for the officials of the Ministry of Justice.

"Lu Lao San, what do you want to do? He actually interfered with the Ministry of Justice's case handling." Inspection inspector Zhao frowned slightly and said to the bald man.

"The Ministry of Justice handles the case?" The bald man heard this, a sarcastic smile appeared on his lips. "Why are you here today? Everyone knows why you and I are here. Since Lu comes first than you, you'd better wait before Lu finishes his work. If everyone tear down, that's not good."

"Lu Lao San, don't be too arrogant. If you interfere with the Ministry of Justice's case handling, this inspector will take you into the prison." Inspection inspector Zhao frowned slightly when he heard this, and said to the bald head with a sneer. Since he has come today, he will not plan to return empty-handed, otherwise he will not be able to explain to the people behind him.

"When Lu finishes his work, you can do it." The bald man laughed at him. He was not afraid of inspector Zhao's threat, because even if inspector Zhao arrested him in prison, he would soon be able to come out safely.

"Damn it!" Seeing that the bald man was not good at eating, Zhao Xunshen couldn't help but clench his fists and cursed in a low voice. He knew that the bald man had something to rely on, so there was no way to deal with him. If he had to force himself, he would have to fight one. This was not what he wanted to see.

After hesitating for a moment, Inspection Officer Zhao waved his hands at the men who were confronting the bald men, and the men then retreated.

Inspection inspector Zhao's eyes then fell on Tan Zong. He felt that the young man seemed not easy to deal with, so he wanted the bald man to test Tan Zong's background first.

"This young master, Lu won't go around in circles. Five hundred taels. If you sell this inn to Lu, all the troubles will disappear." The bald man came to Tan Zong, and while slamming his palm with a machete, he said to Tan Zong with a smile, "Believe me, when the guy from the Ministry of Justice over there puts you in the prison, he will definitely buy an inn at a lower price."

When Tan Zong heard this, he immediately understood. It turned out that the bald man and inspector Zhao had the idea of ​​buying and selling forcing him, and tried to buy an inn from his own hands at a low price.

In other words, Tan Zong had to spend 700 taels of silver from Boss Li to buy Dongsheng Inn first, and then sell it to Bald or Inspection Officer Zhao. This means that Tan Zong would lose the difference in vain after just one trip, which was hundreds of taels of silver.

If it weren't for the capital, if it weren't for the fact that I looked like a rich child from Jiangnan, I'm afraid the other party would be

"Are you sure he can send this young master to prison?" After understanding the intention of bald head and inspector Zhao, Tan Zong smiled slightly at bald head, his tone full of teasing.

"Little brother, this is the capital, not your Jiangnan. You may be able to call the wind and rain in Jiangnan and do whatever you want, but here, it is best to tie up your tail and be a human being." The bald man was stunned for a moment, then laughed, thinking that Tan Zong was too young and frivolous, and did not know that the sky and the earth were thick.

"Let's make a bet. If he can't take me to prison, then you can get out of here." Tan Zong said with a smile at the laughing bald head.

"You are looking for death!" The bald man heard this, and the smile on his face couldn't help but stagger. He put the machete in his hand on Tan Zong's neck, and said with a fierce look on his face, "Believe it or not, I will kill you."

As soon as the bald man finished speaking, a white light flashed in front of his eyes. Then he felt a pain in his arm holding the knife. He couldn't help but scream, threw away the knife, took a few steps back, covered the wound on his arm, and looked at Qiao Yu who was standing aside with a sword in surprise. He never expected that Qiao Yu would attack him and stab him in his arm with a sword.

Huh, the bald men around him pulled out the sword from their waists and pointed at Tan Zong and Qiao Yu nervously. They were okay to scare the residents and vendors in the city on weekdays, but once they really started to use the sword and gun, they were really scared, especially Qiao Yu stabbed the bald ones with a sword as soon as he came up, which greatly damaged their morale.

"I want to know why you want to take me away." Tan Zong ignored the shocked bald head, but looked at him in shock, and looked at him in surprise, "If you don't give me an explanation, I will go to the Ministry of Justice to ask clearly."

The bald man was immediately angry and embarrassed after being hit by this sword. He originally wanted the big men around him to attack Tan Zong and Qiao Yu, but suddenly heard this sentence and was shocked. He could have this status today, which means he was not stupid, so he suppressed the idea of ​​letting the big men take action and waited quietly for the development of the situation.

Inspection inspector Zhao looked at Tan Zong in surprise. From Tan Zong's words, he vaguely felt that the situation was not good. Judging from the momentum of the young master in front of him, he seemed to have hit the iron plate this time.
