Chapter 8, killing is too cruel, let's just injure them

The proprietor Wang of Wang's Pharmacy is in his sixties, with a body full of fat, appearing less like a doctor and more like a butcher who slaughters pigs

If the authorities come to trouble them, the worst that can happen is to incur some financial loss; a little money spent to smooth things over will suffice

The eight-character yamen opens to the south, if you have reason but no money, do not enter

"Spare you? Heh." Su Xin let out a light laugh, not understanding the situation, as she carried Xin Er out of the shop

In the past, when Liu Sandao was the leader, although he trusted his brothers who had always followed him, such as Sun Laoda, the task of collecting the regular fees still had to be entrusted to experienced veterans like Huang Bingcheng.

Huang Bingcheng looked coldly at the shopkeeper Wang: "Let me reintroduce myself. My boss Su Xin is the adopted son of the big boss Hu Sanye, a newly appointed small boss, responsible for managing the Happy Forest.

By that time, he would be able to demand a hefty price and deal a severe blow.

However, to Wang Zhanggui's surprise, he did not see a trace of panic in Su Xin's eyes; this young man remained remarkably calm throughout.

Xiner was settled at home, and arrangements were made for her care. Su Xin instructed someone to find Huang Bingcheng: "Old Huang, gather all the shop owners from the Happy Forest to the Drunken Moon Building for a meeting."

Oh! Master Huang, what brings you here? Upon seeing Huang Bingcheng enter, Manager Wang immediately quickened his pace, waddling over with his short, stout legs.

Therefore, the business of his pharmacy is not only thriving, but it also earns more than some pharmacies in bustling markets

Since ancient times, this government has not been intended for the poor

Shopkeeper Wang regretfully shook his head, placed the bracelet back into the box, and prepared to visit the pawnshop when he had time to exchange it for silver

Xin'er, let us return home

"Do you still dare to threaten me?" Wang, the shopkeeper, said with a cold smile, "Do you know about the Flying Eagle Gang? I pay them dozens of taels every month. Do you believe that if I say a word now, the people from the Flying Eagle Gang will immediately break your legs and throw you out?"

Looking at the few pharmacy assistants huddled in the corner, Huang Bingcheng sneered: "Wrap up this fat man, don't let him die. If the authorities come over later, you should know what to say."

Manager Wang felt uneasy in his heart at Su Xin's smile, not understanding what he meant.

Su Xin patted Xin Er's little head and looked indifferently at Manager Wang: "What kind of medicine requires compensation with two jade bracelets?"

Xin'er was greatly startled by Manager Wang, tightly clutching the hem of Su Xin's clothing, and said with a sense of grievance: "But I have already returned the medicine"

Hmph! Can the medicine that has been touched by your filthy hands still be used?" Manager Wang snorted coldly, his face full of disdain

Wang Fatty, you really are something, aren't you? You actually dared to extort my boss. Don't you think you're asking for trouble?

Is this young man actually a member of the Flying Eagle Gang? Moreover, how could an elder like Huang Bingcheng from the Flying Eagle Gang actually call him "boss"!

A new official must certainly show their authority with vigor; in the past, when Liu Sandao took office, they certainly did not hold back in their respect and deference.

Manager Wang deliberately took out a box of ginseng wrapped in red cloth and placed it in front of them, appearing as if he had them completely under his control

The style and material of this bracelet are rather exquisite, not something that the Su family could possess

Be quick about it! Don't be lazy! Otherwise, all of this month's salary will be deducted!

You are lying! You deceived me! The thing I took last time was not this at all!" Su Xiner shouted with a small fist clenched, feeling wronged

After asking Xin'er a couple of questions, and finding that she could not provide a clear answer, Su Xin fortunately decided not to inquire further

Several associates nodded repeatedly; even with the courage of the two of them, they did not dare to actively provoke the members of the Flying Eagle Gang

Su Xin shook his head and said softly, "The old man doesn't have many years left to live, killing him would be too cruel, let's just incapacitate him."

Huang Bingcheng has been well-established in the Flying Eagle Gang for over ten years

After a moment of silence, Su Xin finally spoke: "I have never been in prison, but I believe you will soon be unable to eat."

Kuaihuolin is indeed affluent, but how many people can fall ill on a single street? Opening a pharmacy here can only result in losses

It was only then that Manager Wang noticed Su Xin and coldly said: "You must be this little girl's family, right? Take a good look, the last time she took was genuine Liaodong ginseng, all transported from the Eastern Jin region.

Others believe that Changlefang is a slum, lacking in profit, and are unwilling to open a pharmacy here

"Boss, do you have any instructions?" Huang Bingcheng did not even glance at Manager Wang, but instead respectfully asked Qin Yu while lowering his head

Seeing Huang Bingcheng's expression, Su Xin knew what he was thinking. However, he did not correct him, as he would understand everything in due time

Haha! You little girl actually dare to come back! Last time you wasted so many of my herbs, this one bracelet is not enough to compensate! Quickly give me the other one as well!

At this moment, Manager Wang was admiring a jade green bracelet

Huang Bingcheng chased after him, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes, and quietly asked, "Boss, should we take care of this Wang Fatty?"

Hmph! What I say is final!" Wang, the shopkeeper, looked at Su Xin and said with a cold smile: "Kid, hand over the other jade bracelet quickly, or I will report to the authorities right now, and you can just wait to eat prison food in the jail!

In business, it is important to maintain a harmonious atmosphere to generate wealth. When encountering such aggressive and combative gangs, they have countless methods to bring you down.

He still has a main quest to earn 10,000 taels of silver, and this money must be obtained from this lively forest.

"Old Huang, you may come in," Su Xin called softly

However, Su Xin is not Liu Sandao, and he certainly would not exploit those business owners to the point of destruction; that would merely be killing the goose that lays the golden eggs

Even a rotten boat has three pounds of nails, and although the people of Changlefang may be poor, they can still extract a bit of profit

For a businessman like him, who has a modest amount of assets, there is no fear of the authorities

The poor tend to neglect their health, relying on endurance for minor ailments, and only seek out a pharmacy or a doctor when they can no longer bear the pain

Do not be misled by Huang Bingcheng's obsequiousness in front of Su Xin; after all, he has been a figure in the Flying Eagle Gang for over ten years. Although he may not be very skilled in combat, he has indeed taken lives.

The most formidable adversaries they face are precisely the Flying Eagle Gang, a type of underworld organization.

Currently, the one in charge is Su Xin. If they do not make some sacrifices, do they still wish to continue mingling in the Happy Forest in the future

Su Xin picked up Xin Er and stuffed the bracelet into her hand, but a trace of doubt arose in his heart

When it comes to dealing with ordinary folks like Su Xin, Manager Wang has the most experience

Upon hearing Su Xin's words, Huang Bingcheng immediately entered with eight of his followers

However, the owner of this Wang Ji pharmacy thinks further ahead than others

Manager Wang, with a mournful expression, immediately returned the bracelet to Su Xin, and with keen insight, added a stack of silver notes, which Su Xin glanced at and found to be no less than three hundred taels

Seeing the shopkeeper Wang lying on the ground, unable to even grunt, Huang Bingcheng stroked his chin and said: "Alright, stop hitting him, or he will be killed."

The entire Changlefang only has one pharmacy, located next to the Happy Forest

Shopkeeper Wang scolded a clerk in the pharmacy, and just as he was about to rise, he saw a handsome young man walking in with a little girl in tow

Even if it does not take your life, it can still make it impossible for you to survive here

Master Su, I failed to recognize the greatness before me, please spare me this time

Manager Wang was immediately drenched in sweat, his short legs trembling, barely able to support his corpulent body

However, Su Xin's impression of his own body from childhood has long since become vague, even less clear than what Xin Er remembers

Upon hearing him speak, the eight accomplices finally ceased their actions

From the Eastern Jin Dynasty to our Great Zhou, a distance of several tens of thousands of miles, each ginseng from Goryeo is worth over a hundred taels! She wasted seven or eight of them in one go, can you afford to compensate for that?

Therefore, Manager Wang is quite familiar with him. When the Flying Eagle Gang had just occupied the Happy Forest, he had also given Huang Bingcheng a few taels of silver, asking him to take care of his shop.

Huang Bingcheng revealed a look of understanding upon hearing this

I just don't know which family that little girl belongs to; otherwise, if I were to employ some means, perhaps I could also obtain the other bracelet.

He nodded slightly and walked back into the store

Upon seeing this little girl, Wang, the shopkeeper, immediately brightened up. Isn't this the same little girl who came to his pharmacy a few days ago to steal medicine?

It is a pity that this bracelet is only one; if it were to form a pair, the price would multiply several times.

Su Xin patted Su Xin'er on the head, covering her ears to prevent her from hearing the screams of Manager Wang

As long as the government intimidates them, they will certainly comply obediently

Uncertain of the reason, upon hearing Su Xin's calm words, Huang Bingcheng suddenly felt a chill rise from his heart

Suddenly, the sound of Manager Wang's screams echoed through the room: "Don't come over! What do you want to do?! If you dare to touch me, the authorities will not spare you! Ah! Ah!"

Old... old master!? Wang, the shopkeeper, was instantly dumbfounded

The jade bracelet is as bright and clear as water, adorned with some intricately carved hollow patterns, giving it an extraordinary appearance
