I Can See Your Combat Power

Chapter 1079: Chapter Three Hundred and Seventy-Three: New Industry Chapter 1079: Chapter Three Hundred and Seventy-Three: New Industry Having wriggled free from the binds of Yunlai Inn’s Cloud Hands, Huai Chenghua kept his head low, pulling the various martial arts school students who lay scattered on the ground to their feet before attempting to leave, only to be halted by Brother Tian’s call.

“Wait a moment,” Brother Tian said coldly. “Since ancient times, a debt is to be repaid, a life taken must be compensated. As long as the Huangfu Family remains in Chaochang for one more day, the debt cannot escape. But when it comes to debt collection, there should be a sense of priority and urgency. When the Huangfu Trade Group left the town, it was joined by a large sum of common folks’ money from only three individuals. The biggest shareholder is none other than this humble one. If the money is to be taken, it should be collected by me first. Huai Master, you have no objections to this, do I presume?”

Huai Chenghua’s face stiffened, and he nodded without missing a beat, “Yes, yes, yes, Boss Yun is correct, as the trade group’s major shareholder, naturally, you should get paid first.”

“Glad to know you understand the rules!” Brother Tian snorted. “Now, young Huangfu is busy selling goods. Even if the proceeds are insufficient, the Huangfu family has both property and land, so there’s no shortage of principal and interest for the common folks. However, if some people’s actions lead to the boy being driven into a dead end and resulting in a total loss, I won’t be able to spare them. Understand?”

Chastened, Huai Chenghua led the martial arts school students away in a dejected manner. After Brother Tian closed the door, he helped the collapsed young man off the floor and went back to fetch two jars, placing them on the table. He spoke indifferently to the distraught young man, “One jar for external application, one for internal use. You should recover in three to five days.”

Huangfu Wang, his expression wooden, nodded and tucked the two jars into his arms, then lifted his swollen face to glance at Brother Tian. His mouth moved as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he only managed a whisper as faint as a mosquito’s buzz, “Thank you.”

With still nearly half of his goods at the docks, Huangfu Wang dared not delay. He got to his feet to leave and paused at the doorway as if finally mustering the courage, yet without daring to look back, he earnestly promised, “Yun… Brother Tian, as soon as I’ve sold the house, I will bring you the principal and interest without any delay!”
