“Our clerk also said so,”

"Regarding the losses we caused to Huaixi this time,"

"Like those lost horses,"

"And the injuries sustained by Chief Wang,"

"We at Erlongshan will compensate you in the same way."

"compensation?"

Upon hearing this, Duan San Niang

He was so angry that he immediately stood up.

At this moment, she had already forgotten her promise to Li Zhude.

To play the bad cop

He was genuinely angry.

"We went to Hebei to buy horses,"

"What does this have to do with your Erlong Mountain?"

"You actually dare to double-cross us?"

"Before we in Huaixi,"

"But we've never offended Erlong Mountain, have we?"

"But you stole our horses, and..."

Seeing that Third Sister was about to tell the truth,

Li Zhu, who was standing nearby, quickly interrupted.

“I had heard that before,”

"Song Jiang, the timely rain of Shandong,"

"Nothing is more loyal than this!"

"So this is what they call loyalty,"

"Is this how it is?"

"this......"

Wu Yong looked embarrassed.

"We're all outlaws,"

"Isn't it always been you robbing me, and me robbing you?"

"Indeed, what we at Erlongshan did in this matter was unethical,"

"But this kind of thing,"

"You Huaixi people have done this before..."

Chapter 1391 Ten Thousand Strings of Cash

"Hmph, so what if we in Huaixi have a history of double-crossing?"

Duan San Niang interrupted her directly.

"What, you want to stand up for them?"

"this......"

Wu Yong obviously didn't expect that,

The Third Sister would actually say that.

Before he could even refute it...

Then Third Sister continued speaking.

"To put it bluntly, what we're discussing right now is just one thing,"

"You Erlong Mountain people don't want us Huaixi to settle scores with you,"

"Then bring out the gold and silver jewelry!"

"If the amount you take satisfies us,"

"Let's leave it at that."

"But what if you can't produce gold and silver?"

"Or perhaps that number won't satisfy us in charge,"

"Then don't blame us from Huaixi for taking action!"

"You dare to shoot our chieftain with a sneak arrow!"

"We'll tie up your Song Jiang too,"

"Then one person shoots an arrow,"

"Only then can I feel at ease!"

"Madam, why waste time arguing with them!"

Mi Sheng slammed his hand on the table and stood up.

"Let's just take our men directly to their Erlong Mountain,"

"At that time, the treasures on Erlong Mountain,"

"They all belong to Huaixi!"

"......alright,"

Li Zhu quickly stood up.

Calm down the two agitated companions,

He then looked at Wu Yong and said coldly.

"Wu Xuejiu, what is the truth of this matter?"

"You know it in your heart?"

"And don't give me that nonsense about bandit rules,"

"Our Green Forest stronghold has always had only one principle,"

"Whoever has the bigger fist gets to listen!"

"About what happened today,"

"Just like my wife said,"

"Your Erlong Mountain can satisfy us,"

"Let's just leave it at that."

"Otherwise, what about my chieftain..."

"But we've been waiting for this for ages!"

"Military Advisor Li, we didn't say we wouldn't compensate you,"

Wu Yong quickly said,

"So, this time we caused your village the loss of horses,"

"We are willing to compensate with gold and silver worth ten thousand taels,"

"As for the arrow that Chief Wang was hit by,"

"We are also willing to offer ten thousand taels of gold and silver,"

"So that Chief Wang can recuperate from his arrow wound!"

"Hmph, you think you can get rid of us with such a small amount of money?"

Duan Sanniang stood up abruptly.

He rushed up to Wu Yong.

He grabbed the strategist by the collar.

"These 20,000 strings of gold and silver are only enough to compensate us for the horses we lost!"

"As for our chieftain's injury, it will cost at least another 100,000 strings of cash!"

"One hundred thousand?"

Wu Yong's expression immediately changed.

"Madam Duan, how could our village possibly produce so much gold and silver?"

"That's the twenty thousand strings of cash,"

"This is something we managed to squeeze out with great difficulty."

"Scholar Wu, let's not beat around the bush,"

Li Zhu said coldly.

"Although you have just arrived at Erlong Mountain,"

"But before, on Qingfeng Mountain,"

"Everyone knows what's going on!"

"The gold and silver that Chao Gai had been managing on Qingfeng Mountain for over a year,"

"I'm afraid you've all moved them to Erlong Mountain."

"And now you're demanding a mere 100,000 strings of cash?"

"We refuse to believe you can't produce it!"

"Military Advisor Li, I'm telling you the truth too,"

Now that things had come to this, Wu Yong immediately made a decision.

They dragged Liangshan down with them too.

"Actually, this time I came here,"

"I brought a total of more than 60,000 taels of gold and silver with me."

"But more than 40,000 of them,"

"They've all been handed over to Liangshan,"

"Our village is completely broke right now!"

"Hmph, hand it over to Liangshan?"

Li Zhu could easily see through Wu Yong's intentions.

"Your Erlong Mountain is trying to drag Liang Mountain down with you,"

"They're spreading rumors everywhere that we in Huaixi are going to slaughter the people of Shandong,"

"This forced Liangshan to step in and negotiate peace."

"That 40,000 strings of cash should have been your compensation to Liangshan,"

"What does this have to do with Huaixi!"

"Just as the lady just said,"

"Twenty thousand strings of cash to compensate for the horse,"

"Ten thousand strings of cash to help our chieftain recover from his injuries,"

"Then let's leave it at that."

"otherwise,"
