I picked up the wine bottle on the table, smashed it, held it in my hand, and looked at the dozen or so little brothers who came in.

"What's up, who's coming up to take a beating first?"

"Oh my, what's this about, doing business, let's all be friendly." Hu San came over to mediate, "Who let you guys in, get out."

Hu San patted my shoulder:

"Young man, you've got guts, I like that. But young people, they tend to be impulsive, acting without thinking. Fifth Master, go back and think it over, make it clear, have someone send me a message."

I didn't say anything, ready to leave.

"Hey, Fifth Master, there's still a show later, aren't you going to watch?"

As soon as the words fell, Lin Mo was pushed into the room, clearly beaten.

Seeing Lin Mo's swollen face, a surge of anger rose within me.

"Are you looking to die?"

"Oh, Fifth Master, you have a relationship with this woman, why didn't you say so earlier, we would have treated her more gently if you had said so."

I pulled Lin Mo up from the ground and shielded her behind me.

Sighing inwardly, there was no way to resolve this matter today. I thought I didn't care about Lin Mo, but seeing her in person, I knew I wasn't that heartless.

"Lin Mo, you know about your husband owing us money, right?"

Lin Mo didn't speak, Hu San continued on his own, "Now that your husband is dead, someone has to repay that money. From a legal perspective, this also counts as joint debt between husband and wife."

"We don't mean to trouble you, as long as you repay the money, we won't trouble you. Otherwise, ask Fifth Master, he has money."

Lin Mo glanced at me, "No need to trouble Fifth Master, I'll handle it myself."

"Haha, handle it yourself, fine, bring the money."

"Give me some time, I'll repay you as soon as I have the money."

"Oh, trying to deceive us, are you planning to run away empty-handed?"

Unable to bear their sarcastic conversation any longer, I cut to the chase.

"Stop beating around the bush, we're all in the same business, we understand your ways. 800,000 is too much, give me a bottom line."

"Fifth Master, Wang Gang owes me 620,000, I'll give you a discount, 500,000 to clear the debt."

"I'll clear 150,000 on my side."

650,000, I really don't have that much money.

If I sell off all the goods in my hands, close the shop, I might be able to reach that amount.

"Don't talk about those intangibles, what's the principal?"

"What? You just want to repay the principal and be done with it? Do I keep all these people under me for free?"

This Hu San seemed polite but his words hit you like a punch to the gut, looking at his face, I got angry.

But I had to suppress it, after all, a hero doesn't suffer losses.

"Fine, I'll bring the money tomorrow."

After saying that, I tried to leave with Lin Mo, but was stopped.

"You can go, leave Lin Mo behind, I'll definitely treat her well, good food and drink. Tomorrow when you bring the money, I'll release her."

"If a fight breaks out, hide under the table," I quietly instructed Lin Mo.

Regardless of whether she heard clearly or not, I exerted force and smashed the wine bottle in my hand towards Hu San.
