"Ten thousand taels? Okay, go get the 10,000 taels of silver notes!" The old man gritted his teeth.
"Who said it was ten thousand taels!" Xiaosi shook his head.
"How much is that?"
"One million taels." Xiao Si smiled slowly.
"What!"
Not only the old man, but also the people watching took a breath and opened their eyes in disbelief.
This kid really dares to speak like a lion, one million taels!
Even if he is a golden man made of gold, I'm afraid he can't ask for so much silver, right
The old man glared at Xiaosi and sneered: "Are you crazy? Do you know how much one million taels is? I'm afraid you have never seen so much money in your life, right?"
"Who said I haven't seen it? The silver I've seen is more than your family's inventory. Are you bullying me for not seeing the money? Humph, one million taels, I really didn't notice it." Xiaosi snorted.
He is not bragging. When it comes to silver, the treasure house in the palace is full of treasures. Anything you take out is worth a fortune, definitely more than one million taels.
The old man was so angry that he almost vomited blood, but when he saw that his grandson's life was in Xiaosi's hands, he had no choice but to knock out his teeth and swallow blood.
"Okay, one million taels is one million taels, but I can't come up with so much money at the moment. Can you give me a few days' grace? You can let my grandson go first. After three days, I will raise the money and I will personally Deliver it to your Majesty," he said slowly, his eyes flickering with a cunning and sinister light.
Xiaosi laughed: "Do you think I'm a fool? I return my grandson to you, what if you default on the payment? Let's pay the money with one hand and the silver with the other, so that the money is paid in both directions and the child is innocent. You take it now Don't you have money? Very good, very good. We just came here and haven't gone around yet. It's not bad to stay for a few days. We can go sightseeing nearby and appreciate your local customs. But you Grandson, he wants to be with us. He keeps calling us beggars, so let him feel what it’s like to be a beggar.”
The face of the young man in brocade changed greatly, and he shouted: "No, no! I won't go with you, I don't want it! Grandpa, save me, grandpa, save me! If he wants one million taels, give him one million taels! Is it possible that my grandson's Isn’t life worth the money?”
Xiaosi chuckled and looked at the young man in brocade clothes with malicious eyes. The young man was so terrified that he shrank his neck in fear and did not dare to make eye contact with Xiaosi.
"Don't worry, I will entertain you well and I will never let you go hungry. I'll take care of all the leftovers, sour water and sour food! If you miss one bite, I will chop off one of your fingers. If you don't even take one bite Eat, and I will chop you into a stick!"
The young man was so frightened that he said in a trembling voice: "W-what kind of stick is this?"
Xiao Si smiled and said: "You don't even know how to use a human stick? I just chop off all the protruding parts of your body, such as your fingers and toes, and... here."
His eyes fell on the lower abdomen of the young man in brocade clothes, and he felt happy.
"No!" The young man in brocade suddenly let out a scream, as if Xiao Si's gaze had substance.
"What are you screaming? It's worse than killing a pig. Shut up! If you scream again, I'll cut out your tongue first!"
Xiao Si stared at the young man impatiently. The young man immediately closed his mouth in fear and bit his lips tightly, but his eyes drifted towards the old man, full of pleading, obviously begging the old man to save him.
