"It's not one thousand taels for killing two people, it's one thousand taels for each! For two, I, Hu Dafu, will give two thousand taels! Two thousand taels, to slay the evil and protect my safety!"
He shouted so loud that almost all the Escort Masters heard him.
Even though everything that happened made everyone aware that Hu Dafu definitely had skeletons in his closet.
But the temptation of two thousand taels was too great.
This was two thousand taels!
If one could get their hands on two thousand taels, one could easily spend five hundred on a mansion in the Nanjun Prefecture Government. With the remaining fifteen hundred, one could take five hundred to marry several daughters from good families and live a carefree and comfortable life just like the Emperor every day.
The leftover one thousand taels would be more than enough for a worry-free life for the next half of one's life, and one could casually invest in some real estate.
