The number one rebel of the Great Wu

After a short while, like the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

Several figures rushed into the Sleeping Moon Pavilion.

The madam hurried forward, her joy barely contained.

"Fourth Young Master, Sixth Young Master, Thirteenth Young Master, you've finally arrived!"

"This time, Miss Xiaoqian has finally landed a big client; he's planning to buy her freedom!"

Shen Si Shao paused in his steps.

"Does that person know that little bitch's name?"

Shen Liu Shao quickly came over and tugged at Fourth Brother's arm.

"Fourth Brother, why are you asking those questions?"

"This Moonlit Pavilion is always bustling with people; it's probably been spread by word of mouth from some patron. What are you afraid of?"

"Besides, in Jiangxia Town, who would dare to cross us?"

Thirteenth Young Master gave a lewd smile.

"Sixth Brother is absolutely right. How much power can a patron who only likes these women of the night possibly have?"

"In my opinion, the most important thing is still money."

"Old woman, how much money is that client prepared to pay to buy that little slut's freedom?"

"One thousand taels!"

The madam quickly and respectfully replied.

"well!"

The Sixth Young Master and the Thirteenth Young Master exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with great joy.

Although they were members of a branch of the Shen family, they had considerable daily expenses, and the monthly allowance of ten or twenty taels of silver from the family was simply not enough to cover their needs.

Otherwise, they wouldn't need to forcibly abduct women to make money.

The thousand taels were divided among the four people, including the madam, with each person receiving about two hundred taels.

It's equivalent to the annual salary of a second-rank official in the capital.

"What kind of attire is that, to be able to produce a thousand taels? Old woman, you haven't been scammed, have you?"

A hint of doubt flashed in the Fourth Young Master's eyes.

"Oh, Fourth Young Master, if I hadn't seen the silver notes with my own eyes, how could I have boasted in front of you gentlemen?"

"As for that person, he was dressed simply, perhaps a young master from a newly rich merchant family, and his mannerisms were not particularly noble."

"Compared to the three young masters, it's like heaven and earth!"

Hearing this, the Fourth Young Master was somewhat relieved.

This old woman has worked in the sex industry for so long, she's seen all kinds of people.

She could recognize the innate air of nobility in anyone from a prominent family at a glance, without a doubt.

"If that's the case, is it possible to get more silver from him?"

The old woman covered her mouth and smiled.

"Then... we'll have to see what the young masters are capable of!"

……

Hearing footsteps outside, Chen Changgeng turned his head slightly and immediately lowered his voice.

"They've arrived, Miss Yuzhu. Are you ready?"

Having changed her clothes, Yu Zhu, sitting properly by the bed, nodded gently.

"I'm sorry."

Chen Changgeng cupped his hands in greeting and gently embraced her.

"Bang!"

The door was kicked open.

The next second, the madam screamed.

"Oh dear, the three young masters are no good!"

"You can't go in! Miss Xiaoqian is receiving distinguished guests!"

The next second, an angry voice rang out.

"Distinguished guests? In this Jiangxia Town, could there be any guests more distinguished than the three of us?"

"Even the county magistrate has to bow his head when he sees us. Who do you think you are, daring to stop me!"

"Get out of here!"

With a thud, the old woman was pushed in and fell heavily to the ground.

At that moment, Chen Changgeng, who was groping Yuzhu, suddenly turned around, his face full of anger.

"Mom, what's going on?"

"Can't you see I'm busy?"

"You've interrupted my good time! I guess you don't want the money after all!"

The madam scrambled to her feet, her face full of reluctance.

"Honorable guest, please let me explain. These three are Young Master Shen. They specifically requested to be served by Miss Xiaoqian today!"

"Ouch!"

Before the madam could speak, Shen Si Shao shoved her aside.

Shen Si Shao was short in stature, with two small mustaches and a round head, looking extremely sleazy.

This appearance was in stark contrast to his previous words and voice.

Shen Si Shao strode over, snapped his folding fan shut, tapped his palm as he looked Chen Changgeng up and down, then burst into laughter.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"I thought it was something else!"

"So he's just a commoner, yet he dares to steal our women!"

The Sixth Young Master and the Thirteenth Young Master also walked over together, looking at Chen Changgeng with disdain.

"His entire outfit isn't even as expensive as a pair of my boots!"

"Madam, have you checked your credentials? You've probably been taken advantage of!"

Seeing the three men humiliating him like this was exactly what Chen Changgeng wanted. His face flushed slightly, and he took out a thousand-tael silver note and slammed it hard on the bed next to Yuzhu.

"You three bastards, you look down on people!"

"I said I'd pay a thousand taels to ransom them, how could I lie!"

"Yuzhu is now mine. I cannot receive guests. Please leave!"

Upon seeing the silver note, the three knew it was genuine, and their excitement grew even stronger.

"If you want to redeem Xiaoqian, I also want to redeem Xiaoqian."

"According to the rules, let's compare our financial resources; whoever has more money wins."

"Old woman, no matter how much I ask for later, you just need to go to my Shen residence to collect the money."

"I'll offer 1,500 taels, beating you!"

"How is it!"

Shen Si Shao sneered and looked at Chen Chang Geng.

The madam was slightly taken aback, but immediately realized what was happening.

Young Master Shen is trying to get something for nothing.

So he quickly nodded and thanked her.

"Five thousand five hundred taels, hmph!"

Chen Changgeng then took out another thousand-tael silver note.

"I'll offer two thousand taels!"

A hint of joy flashed in the eyes of all three. It seemed that this kid really was a sucker!

"Then I'll pay two thousand five hundred taels!"

Chen Changgeng's previously arrogant expression suddenly changed. He reached out and touched his chest, looking extremely embarrassed and penniless.

"You, all of you just dare to shout out prices recklessly."

"But there's not a single coin in sight; we can't play this game with you!"

Chen Changgeng quickly took back the silver note and made a move to leave.

The other party was clearly trying to probe his secrets, and Chen Changgeng naturally had to reveal as much as he could to provoke them into making a move.

Now that Shen Qingci has returned to Jiangxia Town, everyone in the Shen family must know this.

Even a fool knows that it's best to keep a low profile at this juncture.

If they are not offered huge rewards, how could they fall into their own trap?

Seeing that Chen Changgeng was about to leave, Thirteen Young Master's face darkened, and he grabbed Chen Changgeng's shoulder.

"You think you can just leave after offending the three of us? No way!"

"That's right, not only can people not leave, but the money must also be left behind."

The Fourth and Sixth Young Masters exchanged a glance, clearly having made up their minds to pull off this big heist.

The two rushed forward and pinned Chen Changgeng to the ground, while Thirteen Shao reached into Chen Changgeng's clothes.

"You bastards! How dare you rob me in broad daylight!"

"Is there no law anymore?!"

"The law is our law! The three of us are the law of Jiangxia Town!"

"Old woman, shut the door to all visitors, prepare a woodshed, and lock this brat inside!"

"We'll deal with him in a few days!"

The three of them gave a cold, mocking laugh in unison.

Meanwhile, Yu Zhu, who was inside the house, was too frightened to move.

Chen Changgeng did not tell her his plan. She was deeply moved when she saw that Chen Changgeng was willing to take out two thousand taels of silver to redeem her!

Seeing her benefactor being bullied by three villains, she could no longer bear it and charged forward with a roar.

"Let go of my benefactor!"

At this point, Chen Changgeng knew he had no choice but to act.

Firstly, Yuzhu was already ill, and if she really rushed up and got punched and kicked, she might die.

Secondly, these three people clearly intended to suppress their own opinions first and then take action after Shen Qingci left.

My goal is to cause trouble for the authorities and end up in jail!

"Yuzhu, don't come any closer!"

Chen Changgeng roared and suddenly flipped over, sending the Fourth Young Master and the Sixth Young Master who were on top of him flying!

The two of them crashed into a pile of tables and chairs on the ground, and when they looked up again, they were completely dumbfounded!

Chen Changgeng was filled with rage and exuded murderous intent. He picked up a stool and snapped off its leg with a loud crack.

"Since you dare to bully me, none of you three will leave here alive today!"

The three men turned pale instantly and yelled at the old woman.

"What are you waiting for? Go report it to the authorities!"
