"What do you mean?" Third Master Tiger glared at Hou Tong, forcing out the question through clenched teeth.
Hou Tong cackled and replied: "Oh, come on, Third Master Tiger, stop playing innocent. Everyone knows about your little feud with Su Xin. Now, he's directly handing money over to the gang. It's an outright slap to your face. Can you still sit still?
However, in fairness, he is your foster son. Also, you were the one who acted unscrupulously first. If you use your so-called fatherly authority to suppress him, your reputation in the Flying Eagle Gang will stink.
If you give me a sum of money, I'll solve this problem for you. I'll make sure he bends his head to you. I do not mind being labelled as a bully. I, Hou Tong, have already lost any sense of shame. But you, Third Master Tiger, should save some face."
Third Master Tiger fell silent for a while before saying, "A fixed price, fifty thousand silver."
"Heh heh, deal!" Hou Tong smacked his palm in satisfaction.
