The next day, Zhang Er slept until the sun was high before getting up in a hurry.
Walking to the door, he and Qin Feng looked at each other and smiled, showing an expression that men can understand, and everyone's relationship is one step closer.
"How was yesterday?" Brother Hu asked with a smile.
"Hey!" Zhang Er rubbed his head, a little embarrassed.
Anyway, he is very satisfied.
"Here are the red envelopes for you two!" The old woman smiled and handed over two red envelopes, "You two uncles are welcome to come often."
The old woman was just being polite, if the two really came here often, how would she do business
Zhang Er and Qin Feng didn't pick it up, but Brother Hu understood very well, and stuffed two red envelopes into their hands: "This is the rule, you all take it!"
When visiting a kiln, they still offered money, Chen Hao looked contemptuous and envious.
Who made him still a sword now, without that function...
His resentment deepened!
"Bad luck broke out!"
Chen Hao activated this skill silently.
In the past, he still had expectations for Zhang Er, but now he has nothing.
Half a month ago, Zhang Er stopped encouraging himself, and now he started to indulge in pleasure, taking pleasure in bullying the weak, what's the use of a sword master with no ambitions and mediocre talent
Walking out of the alley, Zhang Er said in a low voice, "I seem to be late for morning exercise today!"
Brother Hu smiled and said, "It's okay, I already applied for a task yesterday, and we will go to do it this morning."
"Brother Hu, what is the mission?"
"Of course it's debt collection!"
As the largest gang in Iron Stone City, the Iron Wolf Gang not only has connections with the three major families, but also helps them do some shady things, and usually runs some other businesses.
For example, opening a gambling shop to lend usury.
Today's task is to go to a bad gambler's house to collect debts.
Following Brother Hu through several alleys and into the slums, the alleys became narrower and narrower, more and more garbage piled up on the side of the road, the ugly smell became stronger and stronger, and the ground was full of sewage. The three of them were a little bit uncomfortable.
Zhang Er held his nose in disgust, and looked at the sallow, emaciated poor people in dirty clothes around him with disgust.
Those poor people also stayed away from them wisely. After all, the three of them were tall and armed, so they were not easy to mess with.
"Brother Hu, are you coming?"
"Hurry up, hurry up, right in front!"
Soon they arrived at their destination, and Brother Hu unceremoniously kicked the dilapidated door away.
"Bai Jun, get out!"
Except for a dilapidated table and three wooden stools, there are almost no other furnishings in the room, which can be seen at a glance.
A woman in her thirties hugged a little girl and looked at Brother Hu and the three of them in horror.
The woman in her thirties was pretty good-looking, and she should have been a beautiful woman when she was young, but her face was blue, with bruises from beatings, and a robe was torn, and no one was interested in her.
Brother Hu asked, "Are you Bai Jun's wife?"
"He's at home, what can you do with him?"
Zhang Er said loudly: "Iron Wolf Gang, here to collect debts!"
Brother Hu taught them that when you say the name of the gang, you must speak loudly and have momentum!
Hearing the words Iron Wolf Gang, the woman couldn't help shivering.
Zhang Er was very satisfied with the woman's reaction.
At this moment, a tall and thin man staggered out of the inner room.
The three of them smelled a pungent smell of alcohol, and the tall and thin man didn't seem to have woken up yet.
Presumably this is the real master.
Brother Hu stood up and said, "Bai Jun, Brother Biao sent me to collect the debt. It's a total of one hundred gold coins. The bill must be settled today."
"One hundred gold coins?" Bai Jun was completely sober. He bent over and said, "Brother Hu, can you give me a few more days? If I borrow some more money, I can win all the money back."
It would be strange to win it back.
Zhang Er said in his heart.
"You have been given three months!" Brother Hu said with a cold face, "You have been borrowing money non-stop for the past three months and have never paid it back. Brother Biao said that you must pay back the debt today. "
Bai Jun, Brother Hu knows his information very well.
Bai Jun's father used to run three shops in Iron Stone City. Later, after Bai Jun's father died, Bai Jun inherited his father's inheritance. He was tricked by their iron wolf gang, became addicted to gambling, and lost all his property. moved into the slums.
Brother Biao told him that all the things Bai Jun could sell were sold out, and there was no use value for him.
"Please, Brother Hu, can you speak kindly to Brother Biao, give me a few days of grace, and I'm sure I can get the money together."
Brother Hu smiled disdainfully. He didn't believe the words of such a rotten gambler.
"You have money to drink, so can you give this month's interest?"
Bai Jun just knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
Brother Hu turned his gaze to Bai Jun's wife and daughter and said with a smile: "Why don't you use your wife and daughter to offset this month's interest?"
When he entered the door, he found that Bai Jun's daughter was a little beauty, who might be able to sell for a price.
"Uh..." Bai Jun looked up at his wife and daughter, hesitating.
Bai Jun's wife looked numb and just hugged her daughter tightly.
"Why, reluctant?" Brother Hu said with a smile, "You have to think about it!"
Zhang Er and Qin Feng slowly drew out their long swords.
"People who owe money to our Iron Wolf Gang have never failed to pay back!"
Bai Jun lowered his head, trembling all over, then he gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, but can you lend me another gold coin?"
"Xu Yue, don't worry, go with Brother Hu and the others, I will earn money to redeem you!"
"Don't worry, I will definitely win the money, I will definitely win, and I will definitely be able to redeem you all!"
It was more like he was talking to himself.
The woman's eyes were full of despair, and then she slowly backed away with her daughter in her arms, and retreated into the inner room.
"Well, a gold coin, of course." Brother Hu said to Zhang Er and Qin Feng with a smile, "Both of you, go and take them back."
"Okay, Brother Tiger."
Zhang Er and Qin Feng entered the inner room, Bai Jun's wife and daughter were lying on the bed, with foam hanging from the corner of their mouths, and did not move.
On the bed, there was an overturned broken kettle.
Qin Feng touched the necks of the mother and daughter, but there was no pulse.
He shook his head.
"Brother Hu, when we went in, they were all dead, they committed suicide."
Zhang Er said with a gloomy face.
"It's fucking unlucky!" Brother Hu kicked Bai Jun into the air, and said viciously, "You take him, let him go to the ring, and use him as trash!"
"Impossible, impossible, you must be lying to me!" Bai Jun threw off Zhang Er and Qin Feng and ran into the inner room.
The three entered the inner room and saw Bai Jun kneeling on the bed with a face of despair.
Brother Hu waved his hand and said, "Take it away!"
Zhang Er's hand touched Bai Jun, and he suddenly raised his head.
When Zhang Er saw his eyes, they were full of despair and madness!
His hand grabbed the saber on Zhang Er's waist like lightning, but Zhang Er didn't pay attention at all.
"Second son, move quickly!" Brother Hu shouted.
