Chapter 1070 Here comes another group of people who are not afraid of death

Yuan Bao's eyes were shining when he looked at Xiao Shi, and he remembered the fiery scene they saw when they broke into the prefect's house last night. He had to say that Prefect Tu was really getting stronger with age.

Suddenly, Yuan Bao's handsome face turned red.

Xiao Shi feels that Yuan Bao has been a little abnormal recently, especially after coming back from the city last night.

Not knowing what he was thinking at all, Xiao Shi took the initiative to take a half step back and then said: "Then come."

At this time, the thugs saw that the boss was beaten, and a man and a woman suddenly appeared and flirted with each other in public after beating him, so they prepared to attack Xiao Shi and Yuan Bao together.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Bao's eyes flashed, and in just a few seconds, the thugs who rushed up fell to the ground.

The thugs screamed, their eyes showed panic, and they all retreated in fear.

Yuan Bao walked up to the thugs nonchalantly and said, "I have offended your aunt, but you still don't kowtow and beg for mercy."

When the thug who had been slapped just now saw this, he kowtowed to Xiao Shi and apologized: "The villain has blind eyes and cannot see Taishan. Please spare my life, grandma."

Xiao Shi said coldly: "Why are you chasing the three of them?"

The thugs looked at the people coming around, rolled their eyes, and complained repeatedly: "They are thieves. They stole our boss's food. Now that food is so scarce, they are still stealing food."

Xiao Shi looked at the three men in ragged clothes. The men also felt blushing and argued: "We didn't steal and we paid. It's just that they suddenly demanded a high price, so we had to run away."

Xiao Shi glanced at the three small bags of grain and asked, "How much did you spend on these grains?"

"It was five taels of silver in total, but later they said the price had increased again, and they would only sell it to us for ten taels of silver, but we really had no money." The man explained.

Xiao Shi made a rough estimate and found that the food in the hands of the three of them would be worth twenty taels at normal prices. Even if the price of food increased due to the snowstorm, they would be considered profiteers if they sold it for just one tael. They actually sold it for a sky-high price of ten taels. .

"What's the difference between selling it at such a high price and robbing it?" Xiao Shi wanted to take action again.

At this time, a man in bright clothes appeared in everyone's sight, and said in a strange way: "One is willing to sell, and the other is willing to buy. Now that food is so precious, the price is naturally not low. In many places, even if you have money, you can't buy food. Ten Two silver coins is quite small."

"Master Zhu." When the thugs saw their boss coming, they thought they had a backer: "They are with these three thieves."

"We are not thieves. When you asked for five taels of silver, we gave you the money." The man defended.

Zhu Gui recognized these three people, some lowly common people, and said forcefully: "Now food is so precious that it is hard to buy it with a thousand pieces of gold. You just want to buy three bags of rice with only five taels of silver. This behavior of yours is stealing."

At this time, Zhu Gui looked at Xiao Shi and Yuan Bao up and down, "And you beat my slave, how do you calculate this account? How do you compensate for this?"

Xiao Shi has never seen such a shameless person, "Since you admit that they gave you five taels of silver, then don't blame this girl for doing harm to the people."

Xiao Shi punched Zhu Gui hard in the face. The pain immediately made him cry for father and mother: "How dare you hit me."

Zhu Gui was extremely angry and said angrily: "Give them all to me and beat them to death."

Yuan Bao glanced at the other group of thugs who followed Zhu Gui, and smiled coldly: "Here comes another group of thugs who are not afraid of death."
