NOVEL WEB Chapter 23
“Li Xuan!”
Mrs. Hu was startled, and a touch of emotion appeared on her pretty face. Lady Hu looked at Li Xuan with gratitude. Lord
Huoyu also breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, if someone spoke up, things would be much easier.
But after thinking about it, he said,”Each of the guests who go to support this time will be given fifty taels of silver.”
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the others were immediately relieved.
Although this number is several times less than what they wanted to extort in their minds.
But it’s better than nothing!
So someone patted his chest and guaranteed,”I will also go to support this time.”
“Add me one!”
“I am coming too!”
“Since I am working for Huo Yu Gong, I will not refuse.”
“Lord Huoyu is so generous!”
“Swear to stay together till death with Huoyu Villa!”
···········
The ten people at the scene, except Li Xuan, responded one after another.
Seeing this scene, Lord Huoyu breathed a sigh of relief.
He had plenty of money, but he was afraid that these people would not be willing to go to support him.
If that happened, the people at the mine would be in danger.
“In that case, I’ll trouble you all!”
After a round of instructions, the others left and went to support the mine.
“Li Xuan, wait a moment.”
Seeing Li Xuan about to leave, Mrs. Hu hurriedly called out.
Li Xuan stopped and looked at Mrs. Hu.
Mrs. Hu came forward, opened her red lips, and exhaled as sweet as orchid:”Li Xuan, thank you for what you did just now.”
“If you hadn’t agreed first, those greedy guys would have definitely asked for more.”
Li Xuan frowned and asked,”Has this happened many times?”
Lady Hu came up and responded,”Yes, it has happened many times.”
“When recruiting these people, Huoyu Mountain Villa had already paid a large sum of money.”
“In addition, they will receive generous salaries every month.”
“Those numbers are more than enough.”
“But these people are greedy and they blackmail people whenever they have a mission. They ask for too much money.”
Lady Hu’s delicate face showed deep dissatisfaction.
If it weren’t for the impending storm and danger at Fire Rain Villa, she would have told these guests to pack up and leave.
Li Xuan thought for a moment and continued to ask,”How many guests are there in Fire Rain Villa?”
Madam Hu pursed her sexy red lips and said,”Except you, there are a total of twenty guests in Fire Rain Villa.”
“All of them are above second-rate strength, and there are two acquired strongmen”
“The post-natal strong man just now was one of them; there was another one stationed at the mine.”
“The remaining masters, as well as the four acquired masters, are all guards and loyal people of our Fire Rain Villa.”
Hearing this, Li Xuan frowned.
There are 20 guest masters in Fire Rain Villa, and there are only about 50 masters in the entire Fire Rain Villa.
In other words, the number of guest masters is close to one-half. With such a ratio, it is no wonder that Fire Rain Villa will be eaten to death.
Because once these guests are gone, Fire Rain Villa will not be able to compete with the Broken Hair Three Wolves and many bandits.
Although there are many guards in Fire Rain Villa, their strength is basically not up to par, not even as good as ordinary bandits.
They can only rely on sharp weapons and crossbows to guard Fire Rain Villa.
Mrs. Hu sighed and said helplessly:”Although the guests are greedy, I really dare not fire them at this stage.”
“The threat from the bandits and the three Broken Hair Wolves is too great.”
Li Xuan nodded gently and comforted,”Don’t worry, Fire Rain Villa will be settled soon.”
Li Xuan became a telekineticist, and his combat power can burst out to the level of a high-level warrior.
The standard strength of a high-level warrior is 4,000 kilograms, which is four tons of force.
This kind of strength has surpassed the average innate master.
Even when facing the most powerful wolf in the early innate stage among the three Broken Hair Wolves, he has the confidence to kill it.
Hearing this, Khufu shook his head gently.
She did not take these words seriously.
Because at present, she could not see the hope of making Fire Rain Villa safe.
She smiled euphemistically:”I hope so.”
Then she picked up a bundle from the side.
While handing it to Li Xuan, she pursed her red lips and said,”Li Xuan, this is the beef jerky I made for you. You can use it as dry food on the road.”
After she finished speaking, her pretty face flushed and she lowered her head slightly.
Especially since her sister was still beside her, she looked very embarrassed
?Li Xuan took the bundle and smiled slowly, saying,”I accept your kindness, Miss.”
He put the bundle on his shoulder.
Then he nodded to Mrs. Hu and each household,”I’ll leave first and go to provide support.”
After saying that, he turned around and left quickly.
“Be careful!” Mrs. Hu shouted from behind.
“Sister, why don’t you go with Li Xuan?” Lady Hu smiled and said jokingly.
“Sister!” Mrs. Hu was very shy.
··············
After leaving Fire Rain Villa,
Li Xuan walked quickly towards the agate mine.
As soon as he came out, he saw a group of ten people jogging slowly. These people were the guests from before.
Seeing them, Li Xuan frowned.
Although these people ran, their speed was like a turtle.
It was only slightly faster than a normal person’s walking.
At this speed, they would not be able to reach the mine by night.
It was obvious that they were slacking off and did not take the support seriously at all.
“These guys!”
Li Xuan’s eyes flashed coldly.
Although he was also one of the guests, since he chose to work for Huoyu Mountain Villa, he had to do his best.
Moreover,
Huoyu Gong usually treated the guests with all the treatment they deserved. Before leaving, he even gave each of them fifty taels of silver. He was absolutely benevolent and generous.
However, these guests were not greedy at all.
They even treated such a major event as a joke.
You know, this is a major event that concerns hundreds of lives at the mine.
“I hope nothing happens at the agate mine.”
“otherwise···”
Looking at these people, Li Xuan’s eagle eyes flashed coldly.
Then he was too lazy to look at them again.
He accelerated and passed by, moving forward quickly.
The ten guests also soon discovered Li Xuan’s figure.
They all stopped and stared at Li Xuan.
Some showed disdain, some showed resentment, and some showed ridicule.········
Without exception, they all disliked Li Xuan.
“Humph, that Li Xuan is out!”
“Damn this guy, he ruined everything I was waiting for”
“That is, according to past practice, this time we could definitely extort more than 100 taels from each person; it was all because of Li Xuan that we could only get 50 taels now.”
“Are you rushing to reincarnate at such a fast speed?”
“Let him go to support quickly. It would be best if he met the Broken Hair Three Wolves and was killed on the spot.”
“We’ll just keep this pace. This is the price of fifty taels of silver.”
“Anyway, if something happens at the mine, we can just find an excuse to cover it up.”
“Yes, Lord Huoyu dare not fire us, this is our confidence”
···········
The ten people talked to each other and felt at ease.
In the end, they still went to the mine at the original slow speed.
Their plan was to arrive at the mine before dusk.
If nothing went wrong at the mine, everyone would be happy.
If something went wrong, they would have found an excuse to deal with it.
Anyway.
Now that Huoyu Mountain Villa needed them, they dared not fire them.
