Chapter 267 I Want to Be a Villain 57

Tao Ran was willing to trust this group of refugees because they abided by the rules and could be planned.

During the process of entering the mountain, Xue Jin and Tao Ran made three points.

First, the two boxes I got from the matchmaker’s house in the middle of the night were still there. They were afraid that she would need to take away the delivery task, so they didn't touch it at all and didn't open the chain.

Second, the three people arrested yesterday are all awake. While tying them up, due to an accident, the older leader's cloth fell out of his mouth. He kept saying that he could give them money in exchange for their freedom, but they didn't listen. According to her wishes, they knocked them unconscious again.

Third, they were very grateful to her for lending them three carriages to carry supplies. So they had scrubbed the carriage inside and out, and fed the horses. Grandma Liu in their team even used the red cloth they got from Li’s house yesterday to make her a pillow stuffed with dried flowers and grass seeds...

All these things made Tao Ran feel that these strangers who repaid their kindness were much better than those relatives who were cruel and unfamiliar.

This also strengthened her determination to help these people.

No, at this moment Xue Jin had already handed the box he got from the matchmaker to Tao Ran. He was not curious about whether there was any money in the box. After the handover, Biao said he was going to distribute supplies and left.

Tao Ran got into his large carriage that had been cleaned and smelled good, and smashed open two boxes.

There was no surprise inside, it was basically all money. After counting, there are about fifty taels...

Then Tao Ran looked at the Taoist priest.

The three Taoist priests have already woken up.

They were each tied to a tree and were struggling to free themselves.

Tao Ran stood still in front of them, and then took away the cloth from the old Taoist priest's mouth.

"You..." The Taoist priest wanted to curse, but when the words came to his lips, he thought of his current situation and chose to recognize the situation.

"Miss Li..."

"Stop! My surname is not Li. Li Jingui is dead."

"Okay, okay, even if you are dead." The Taoist priest said pitifully. "To be honest, I treated you well. I did feel sorry for you in the past. But you hit me and scolded me, and you took away my money. It’s time for your anger to go away, right? What’s the point of holding me? Seeing that you’ve already gained a lot, let me go?”

"Let you go? What's the reason? What's in it for me? It's more practical to sell you."

"Sell me? I'm such a bad old man, who will buy me?"

"You!" Tao Ran chuckled: "You can spend money to buy you!"

What Tao Ran hesitated about was how much money could be extorted from this Taoist priest? This guy's money was all ill-gotten gains. If she didn't defraud him, it would be a shame for her.

"How much money can you offer?"

"..." The Taoist breath was blocked in his chest and he almost didn't come up. What bad luck did he have to meet such a debt collector? "But you have already taken away all my savings, one thousand four hundred taels!"

"Are you sure? One thousand four hundred taels is all your savings? Anyway, I don't believe it."

"Believe it or not!" the old Taoist priest became angry and let out a sigh.

"Okay." Tao Ran turned around and said, "Then you just wait to starve to death! If you starve to death here, you won't even be able to carry your money into the coffin, and you don't know who you are taking advantage of!"

"..." Taoist morale became angry. "Stop! You girl, what do you want so much money for? You are not me, I still have a Taoist people to support. My future has been ruined because of you, and you still want to take all my money, How can I and my people survive?”

"How many people are there in your Taoist temple? Have you seen how many people there are in my place?"

Tao Ran turned around and came back.

"I have so many refugees to support here, so the more money, the better. How about this... you give me all the money, you bring all the people from your Taoist temple, and I help you support your people?"

The Taoist priest remained silent and waited for a long time before speaking again: "I have no money."

"Sure! Then you should think it over while you're hungry. I'm going to the city now. When I come back, I hope you've changed your mind."

Tao Ran picked up the cloth on the ground. "By the way, I went to your Taoist temple in the city this morning. It was already surrounded by people from the Qian family."

Tao Ran started talking nonsense again. Anyway, the information is not equal, so she can say whatever she wants.

"The Qian family is already offering a reward for your capture. Mrs. Qian hates you to the core. She not only thinks that you started the fire in her family, but also thinks that Li Dashan's blackmail against the Qian family was instigated and conspired with you. She threatened to crush you to ashes! To this end, the Qian family also found people from the underworld and the Taoist gang, vowing to catch you.

I'm going to ask how much reward they can give you if you are handed over. So I advise you to think clearly, should you take the initiative to take out the money to buy yourself? Or he was sold to the Qian family. "

"You're a liar! You sold me to the Qian family, and you're not afraid that I'll expose you? If the Qian family knows that you cheated to death, you will be the one who is really crushed!"

Tao Ran smiled even brighter.

"You said I faked my death? Where's the evidence? Am I not dead? Who was the burned corpse of the Qian family? Where did it come from? Are you still colluding? You said I'm not dead? Then where am I? You talk as if you can find me? You are a liar in the eyes of the Qian family. Do they believe what you say? Even if they believe you, where are you going to find me? Do you think I will stand here waiting for you? Come with the Qian family to arrest me?

How pathetic, if you can't find me, you're still lying! You lie more and more just to get away! The Qian family has to deal with you even more! Then your end will be even worse! "

The Taoist priest's face was ashen. He knew very well that what the woman opposite said was true. The face she is wearing now is far different from Li Jingui's appearance. With her level of disguise, it would be easy to blend in wherever she wanted.

And she has no weakness. Even if her father and brother were arrested, she might not be able to force her to come forward. She might have to clap her hands secretly. Facing such people, I have no negotiation capital at all.

Tao Ran: "But you reminded me. We have to avoid trouble first. So if I want to sell you, I will first cut off your tongue so that you can't talk nonsense; then break your hand so that you can't write." Word; finally break your legs so that you can’t run away in the hands of the Qian family!

In this way, even if you have all kinds of grievances, you still have a hard time talking about it. The only one who is suffering is you! Once you bear all the charges, I won't have anything to worry about anymore, right? "

The Taoist priest lowered his head and looked at his miserable state, and then thought of the bandit-like refugees around him who had knocked him unconscious. He had no doubt that these people would be really cruel to him for the money.

"I...I do still have eight hundred taels of silver. If you let me go, I will take you to get it." He lowered his head, admitting his failure. There is no shame in spending money to eliminate disaster.

"You want to buy? I'm not in a hurry to sell!"

Tao Ran blocked his mouth again: "I know, eight hundred taels is your bid, but I have to ask the Qian family how much they will pay. The one with the highest price will get it!"
