An hour later, a few people carried in two large boxes.
Dong Xuan, drenched in sweat, said, "The time was too tight. I couldn't gather enough cash. Here are eight thousand taels, and banknotes for four thousand taels. This is all my savings..."
"Fine."
Gu Yang did not make things difficult for him. He took the banknotes, hoisted the two large boxes, and left.
Tianshui City is a small city where all the ways to make money are monopolized by various forces. Dong Xuan is a martial artist with significant expenses, and this amount of money was enough to cripple him financially. He would have to sell many things to come up with it.
Having forked out such a large sum, he felt as if he had vented some grievance and his will to kill has diminished.
After all, Dong Xuan's daughter and he were once husband and wife in Simulated Life. There was a bond between them.
