Gu Yundong thought that this person would go back to his Zhou Mansion to call for help. She did not expect him to have some brains. He was looking for the local hooligans to cause trouble here.
At this moment, the middle-aged man was hiding at the entrance of the alley opposite. He said to the person beside him, "We'll go over and mediate when they get into a conflict later. It'll be much easier to buy their shop then."
"Is it useful?" The person beside him looked like a servant. He was still a little worried.
Steward Zhou snorted. "Of course it's useful. Who would be willing to pay a protection fee of 100 taels a month?"
"It's a pity that we came a step later. Otherwise, we wouldn't have had to give money to those local hooligans to help."
Steward Zhou pursed his lips. "Perhaps in this way, we can lower the price." After a pause, he asked, "When will Master come?"
"He should be here soon."
