Chapter 1223 Beaten(1/3)
"Stop them quickly!"
Shangguan Rongren saw four strong men walking toward him step by step without any intention of stopping, and he finally became afraid.
He loudly ordered the henchman beside him to go up and stop him.
But that bitch can usually pretend to be powerful, but if he really wants to do it, he has no ability.
"Master, I, I can't stop them..."
When Shangguan Rongren heard this, he became angry on the spot and slapped the bastard on the face.
"waste!"
Although the bitch received a slap, his face did not look angry at all. Instead, he said nicely: "Master, let's run away quickly and go back first."
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Rongren looked around.
There are so many people watching this place, if he really walks away, where will he put his face in the future?
When the time comes, whenever people talk about him, they will definitely say that he is a useless Shangguan and is cowardly, destroying the prestige of the Shangguan family.
Therefore, Shangguan Rongren will never leave unless absolutely necessary.
He is a bastard in the family and his status is not high. If he loses his reputation today, he will really not have to mess around in the future.
However, if you don't leave now, those four strong men will come over.
Judging from their current appearance, it was obvious that they were going to hit him.
If he was beaten by his own slaves in public, he would still be embarrassed in terms of face.
Shangguan Rongren's memory was like an ant on a hot pot, his whole body was confused.
However, just when he was at his wits' end, a brilliant idea suddenly came to his mind.
I can't walk, and I can't beat the four strong men, but there are always people present who can do it.
As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a heavy reward.
As long as you give them more money, there will always be people willing to step forward and use the money to do things.
In this way, the Shangguan family's reputation can be barely preserved, and he himself will not be disgraced.
Thinking of this, Shangguan Rongren said loudly to everyone watching: "I have one hundred taels of silver here. I will give it to anyone who can help me take down these four rebels."
When everyone heard this, they immediately took a breath of air.
One hundred taels is not a small amount.
For ordinary people, one hundred taels of silver can lead to several years of enjoyment.
For a time, many people were moved.
Of course, everyone was moved, but no one stood up.
The main reason is that those four strong men are so powerful that ordinary people are no match for them.
Also, Shangguan Rongren said now that he is willing to give one hundred taels of silver, but it remains to be seen whether he will give it to him after the matter is completed.
After all, the Shangguan family's money is notoriously difficult to obtain.
In normal transactions with them, it is difficult to get back your own money.
The situation is even more difficult now.
Considering these reasons, no one present was willing to come forward.
The wretched man whispered to the man in green: "I want to see which idiot dares to come out and collect this money."
The man in green said disdainfully: "No need to look, there won't be any."
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Shangguan Rongren increased his stake.
"Five hundred taels! Doesn't anyone want five hundred taels?"
Five hundred taels?
The onlookers gasped again.
Without saying a word, he doubled the reward five times. He was really rich.
For a while, some people were already excited.
Five hundred taels is really worth a try.
Of course, these excited people did not rush to stand up, but looked around to observe what other people were doing.
After seeing that no one seemed to stand up, these people immediately changed their minds and stood still.
The wretched man smiled and said: "Brother, no one is willing to give me five hundred taels. It seems that today's beating is indispensable."
The man in green clothes smiled and said nothing.
Isn't the answer obvious?
Among the crowd, Shangguan Rongren had big beads of sweat on his forehead.
This was really the first time he had faced this situation, and he really didn't know what to do.
The asking price reached five hundred taels, but no one dared to come forward.
What should we do now?
Taking a deep breath, Shangguan Rongren said loudly: "Two thousand taels, I will pay you two thousand taels!"
As soon as these words came out, the crowd suddenly burst into uproar.
Two thousand taels!
This amount is really too big, is it worth it?
Many people are thinking, can you give me two thousand taels and I will help you withstand this beating?
There are already people who are willing to risk their lives to get the reward of two thousand taels of silver.
But even if some people really think so, no one is willing to really come forward.
The reason is still the same, that is, no one believes that the Shangguan family can really fulfill their promise afterwards.
It would be fun if you didn't get beaten to death and end up not getting a penny.
Therefore, based on the principle of insurance, everyone remains unmoved.
Shangguan Rongren felt really desperate when he saw that no one was willing to come forward at this price.
No matter how high the price is, he can't afford it.
But if the price is too high, it will also affect the Shangguan family's reputation.
At this time, Shangguan Rongren really wanted to cry without tears.
In the past, he had always felt that being a descendant of the Shangguan family was an extremely honorable thing.
But now he suddenly felt that being so aggrieved in order to protect the reputation of the Shangguan family really made people want to die.
At this time, four strong men had already walked up to Shangguan Rongren.
One of the strong men reached out and patted Shangguan Rongren on the shoulder.
Shangguan Rongren turned around instinctively.
Unexpectedly, what greeted him was a huge fist.
Bang——
Shangguan Rongren was hit by this heavy punch on the spot and his eyes were filled with stars.
Before he could shout, another fist hit him.
This time it hit his other eye.
Immediately, Shangguan Rongren was awarded a team of panda eyes.
It wasn't over yet, when Shangguan Rongren was about to shout for help, four strong men opened their bows from left to right, punched and kicked him, and beat him to the ground.
There was no other way, Shangguan Rongren could only hold his head and huddle up, praying in his heart that the other party would not beat him to death.
On the other side, Shangguan Rongren's bitch stood aside and stared blankly at this scene, feeling chilled from head to toe.
