I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times

Chapter 29 Beheading the Hand

Ling Chu never thought that one day, he would be so poor that he could not even afford a medicine.

She was a little worried. When she checked the system last night, she found that the things that existed in the system in the modern era were missing. And she found that there was a blocked block inside, but for some reason she didn't have the master's authority to open it.

  I don’t know if the things she stored in her previous life are in there.

 After leaving the hospital, Ling Chu really had a headache.

Her body must always be maintained with medicine, otherwise there is no guarantee that she will be able to live forever just relying on merit.

 She didn’t know that the health-preserving medicine prepared by the original owner’s master was so expensive.

Although Ling Chu has not met the master yet, he knows from the memory of the original owner that if he had not carefully raised her since she was a child, the grass on her grave would not have been taller than several feet high.

Originally I thought that I still had more than a hundred taels of silver, which would last for a while, and I could slowly find ways to make money. But now that she couldn't even afford her own health medicine, Ling Chu couldn't calm down anymore.

 Her own life is at stake, and she is now desperate to make money.

But now it seems that she can only set up a stall on the street to earn some money, and then look for ways to make money.

 After making up his mind, Ling Chu prepared to make two Taoist robes and buy some equipment for setting up a stall.

Lingchu was walking on the side street, thinking, when she suddenly noticed that many people were passing by her in a hurry, not knowing what was going on in front of her.

Lingchu was wondering when he suddenly saw a middle-aged man being hit by someone running by.

The man frowned and said dissatisfiedly, "Hey, I said you are in such a hurry that you don't even pay attention when you walk. Did something happen? You are all in such a hurry."

The young man realized that he had bumped into someone, so he had to stop and said sheepishly, "Uncle, didn't I hear that Hu Batian went to collect debts again, and I hurried to see it, so I bumped into you without paying attention."

As soon as he heard that Hu Batian went to collect debts again, the man's dissatisfaction immediately disappeared. Instead, he said eagerly, "It turns out that Hu Batian went to collect debts again. Which company should I go to to collect debts this time? Is there any reward?"

The young man walked forward in a hurry, nodding and saying, "Hey, it's because of the silver reward that everyone rushed over to see if there was a chance to get the silver reward.

I heard that Hu Batian was quite generous this time, saying that as long as he helped him find the hidden silver, he could get twenty taels..."

There were many people on the street, and they accidentally bumped into each other as they walked back and forth. It was a trivial matter, and Ling Chu didn't pay much attention to it.

I just heard the conversation between the two people next to me, and I couldn't help but be attracted.

From what the young man said, it seemed like he was saying that if he helped that Hu Batian find the hidden silver, he could get a reward of twenty taels of silver?

Ling Chu's heart moved. She was having a headache and had no money in her hands. This was an opportunity to make money that came to her door.

 For others, finding things is not easy, but she has a system, so it is not easy.

 Twenty taels is a lot.

 If she misses it, she will probably feel distressed.

Seeing the man follow the young man away in a hurry, Ling Chu raised his feet and followed him immediately.

 Following the two men through the streets and alleys, they walked for about a quarter of an hour and arrived in front of a large house.

 The door of the house was open, and the yard was crowded with people watching the excitement.

When Ling Chu saw the man following the young man, she also took the opportunity to walk into the house.

"Liu Dongjia, it's only a mere seven thousand six hundred taels of silver. I advise you to take it out as soon as possible. If you delay it any longer, it won't do you any good." The man who spoke was dressed in blue silk with dark patterns. He was tall and thick, with a fierce expression. , followed by five or six followers who were also easy to mess with.

Ling Chu guessed that the blue silk man must be the Hu Batian mentioned by the young man just now.

As expected, the man named Liu Dongjia smiled grovelingly at him and said, "Well, Mr. Hu, my restaurant's business has not been very good recently, and I really don't have that much money on hand. Please give me a few more days. As soon as I earn money, I will pay off my debt.”

Hu Batian is a well-known bully in the Dongcheng area, but he especially likes to be called "sir".

Hearing what Liu Dongjia said, he sneered and said, "Liu Dongjia, although your restaurant has not had much business in the past few days, its business has been pretty good in the past, so it's not like you can't even get out this little money."

Liu Dongjia said with a sad face, "Master Hu, to be honest, if I didn't have any money, how could I owe so much money?"

Liu Dongluo's words are true, but Hu Batian must get the money when he comes here today, otherwise how will he explain to the manager of the gambling house.

"Liu Dongjia, you also know that I was asked by Steward Tao to collect debts. No matter what, I must get the money today. Since you don't have money in your hands, I am not incapable of being accommodating.

Let's do this, take out whatever valuables you have at home, I'll help you **** them, break them into silver, and give them back to Steward Tao. "

 Hu Batian’s attitude was quite mild, but Liu Dongluo’s expression changed.

“Master Hu, my family is just a small household. Although we have opened a small restaurant, the money we earn is not enough to live on. There is nothing valuable in my family...”

“Liu Dongluo, I thought that it would be difficult for you, so I thought of using other things to **** and convert them into silver, but since you don’t appreciate it, I have no choice but to take action.”

Hu Batian saw that Liu Dongluo had been clenching his teeth and crying, and the little patience in his heart had completely dissipated, so he waved to the little follower behind him.

“Brothers, go in and search, don’t let me spare a single copper coin.”

Liu Dongluo frowned and stepped forward to stop him, "Master Hu, I'm not lying to you, my family really has no money..."

Hu Batian waved his hand and threw Liu Dongluo aside. The follower behind him quickly passed him and rushed into the room inside.

A group of five or six people searched around, but finally came out with a dark face, "Boss, the Liu family doesn't even have half a penny. The house is empty except for a few worthless tables and chairs."

Hu Batian's face sank, "Hey Liu Dongluo, have you hidden all the valuables?"

"Sir, it's unfair. My family really has no money. The restaurant business is not doing well, and all the valuable things in the house have been sold for money. I wanted to buy some good ingredients, make the restaurant business improve, and then return the money after making money. Manager Tao, who knew he was unlucky and the restaurant business was getting worse and worse..."

He cried miserably, but Hu Batian didn't believe it at all. He waved his hand with a gloomy face to interrupt his cry, "Since you are unwilling to hand over the money, then I can only ask for one of your hands, otherwise I will not be able to explain to Manager Tao. "

Liu Dongluo saw two followers approaching him, and another tall and thin man pulled out a dagger from his arms. His face turned pale with fright, and his calves were trembling.

Ling Chu frowned. He didn't expect that Hu Batian's methods were so ruthless, and he even asked his followers to kill the Liu Dong family. Just as she was about to stand up and stop him, she saw someone walking out of the crowd of spectators ahead of her.
