Chapter 88: Deep grudges
This little tiger has some brains!
Chen Pingan raised his eyes and glanced at Mr. Tiger, sighing slightly in his heart.
Although their positions are different, most people cannot do this.
"Master Chen, you are back."
Little Tiger's face was full of anger, and he forced a smile, which looked a little funny.
"Hey, isn't this Mr. Tiger? What? Are you looking for trouble with Chen again?"
Chen Pingan said expressionlessly. With his current martial arts realm and status, he can vent his emotions appropriately without worrying about anyone around him.
"What are you talking about, Mr. Chen? You're joking. I'm here specifically to apologize to Mr. Chen."
Mr. Xiao Hu said with a smile.
"Apologise? Apologize for what? Chen is a person who has to pay monthly money to the Hutou Gang. How dare he accept the apology from the famous Little Tiger Master of the Hutou Gang." Chen Pingan looked at Little Tiger Master jokingly.
"Monthly money, there is no monthly money! Mr. Chen is trying to hurt me. If my Hutou Gang dares to accept Mr. Chen's monthly money, then it will be a slap in my little Huzi's face."
As he said this, Mr. Tiger slapped his face hard.
"Oh? Really?" Chen Pingan said calmly.
"Feizi." Mr. Tiger greeted.
"Yes, Mr. Tiger." A gangster behind him came forward, holding a wooden box in his hand. "Master Chen, please take a look."
After saying that, Feizi opened the wooden box in his hand.
Chen Pingan glanced around and saw pieces of silver ingots neatly placed in the wooden box. These silver ingots are bright in color and of high quality. Each piece is worth a full ten taels of silver. There are a total of six ingots of silver in this wooden box, which means sixty taels.
Sixty taels of silver!
For ordinary people in this world, that is an incredible amount of money. Even for a person like Chen Ping'an who was so poorly prepared, it was not a small amount.
Chen Ping'an's current monthly salary is one to two yuan. Sixty taels of silver, that is more than half of the monthly salary income for two years.
Of course, after being promoted to Chatou, Chen Ping'an's income was more than just his monthly salary.
"Master Chen, please accept your kindness. I have offended you a lot before, so please forgive me." Master Xiao Hu looked at the change in Chen Ping'an's expression, licked his face and smiled in apology.
The initial nine outings and thirteen returns were fourteen taels of silver, and including the subsequent monthly payment, it did not exceed fifteen taels.
He came to apologize and gave sixty taels of silver in one breath, which was full of sincerity.
"I don't dare to accept the money from the Hutou Gang to make amends. There's no guarantee that one day I'll be paid back by someone who comes to visit me again with all my money and profits."
Chen Pingan glanced at the money indifferently, then raised his legs to walk into the yard.
Chen Pingan was not satisfied with the sincerity of sixty taels of silver.
"Master Chen, stay here." Mr. Xiao Hu winked, and another rogue behind him took out another wooden box.
The wooden box was opened, and four ingots of silver lay quietly inside.
Forty taels.
Adding the sixty taels just now, it becomes one hundred taels.
In this outer city of Weishui County, one can buy a nice house.
Chen Pingan glanced at the silver in the wooden box, with a hint of sneer on his face: "Xiao Huzi, I think you haven't understood the situation. Do you think you can get rid of me with a little money? Originally, Hutou and I I have no grievances, but you have repeatedly provoked me.”
"The first time, you deceived me into having no father and led someone to break into the house. Old Chentou borrowed ten taels of silver, but he actually got nine taels. It was agreed that the loan would be for one year. But you came to the door in advance and asked for the repayment of the silver. With profit, fourteen taels!”
"The second time, I raised fourteen taels from various sources. Originally, we paid off the money we owed, and that was the end of the relationship between you and me. But you said that from now on, I need to start paying monthly payments."
"The third time, my sister-in-law was at home, and you bullied me into talking softly, forcibly asking for monthly money, and scaring my sister-in-law."
"The fourth time, indiscriminately, you sent gangsters to my house to interrogate me. Did you treat me as a police officer of the Zhenfu Division?" "The fifth time, you regarded the law of Daqian as nothing. In the fish and meat village, you made things difficult for me in public."
"With all these and deep grievances, who do you think Mr. Chen is? You just want to spend a hundred taels of silver to get to know me. Do you really think Mr. Chen is some good-tempered person?"
Having said that, Chen Ping'an didn't give Mr. Tiger any face, and walked into the yard with his legs raised.
Little Tiger Master was about to step forward to explain when he saw the courtyard door being slammed shut.
Seeing this, Little Tiger's face turned green and red.
"Little Tiger Master." You Rupi couldn't help but say.
Mr. Xiao Hu looked at the closed courtyard door in front of him, suppressed the idea in his heart to kick open the broken door, and snorted angrily: "Let's go back first!"
"yes."
Several members of the Hutou Gang left Chen Ping'an's house.
"Brother, are you okay outside?" Chen Erya has been staying in the yard since the beginning. When the Tiger Head Gang came, she was still a little nervous. But when her brother comes back, she will be fine.
"It's okay. It's just a chicken and a dog." Chen Pingan waved his hand and stepped forward to comfort Chen Erya.
"In less than a month, this Tiger Head Gang is willing to break the monthly payment rules for me. It's not because of anything else, but because of my status as the prime minister!"
"I finally understand the world. If you want to live well and not be angry, you must use your strength and have rights!"
"The foundation for my reputation as a martial arts genius has been laid. What I do next can be done faster!"
After eating, Chen Pingan was thinking quietly in the yard.
Now that he is about to be promoted, it is time for him to settle his feud with Mr. Xiao Hu. And the sooner this happens, the better. He is not afraid of Mr. Tiger, but his daughter is not familiar with martial arts, but she is.
But fortunately, he finally mentioned the amount of money, so the other party wouldn't do anything stupid for a while. I just want to try other ways to ease the relationship with him.
"The Hutou Gang's matter must be resolved as soon as possible!"
"Like the previous sneak attack on the stronghold in the middle of the night, it was just a trail! Since I am the preparatory officer of the Zhenfu Division, I must use the right method of panic to suppress others with force!"
"It's not just Mr. Tiger who needs to be solved, otherwise the consequences will be endless!"
"."
Chen Pingan was planning a solution in his mind.
"Houtou Dashan Xiao Zeng, the three of you will help me collect some information."
In Chatou Gong's room, Chen Ping'an gave orders to Heitou Dashan and Zeng Jiji.
"Please tell me, my boss."
The attitudes of the monkeys are very correct. In this official matter, he should be called Chatou, and he would not have the rashness to call him "peace".
"Go and help me collect some illegal activities done by the Tiger Head Gang. I can be of use."
"yes."
The monkey heads and others left as ordered.
Watching the monkeys and others leaving, Chen Pingan gently tapped the table with his fingers. He thought quietly for a while, then got up and went to find Li Chatou.
After sitting with Li Chatou for half an hour, Chen Pingan went to find Huang Chatou and Liu Chatou again.
One day passed quickly.
