Suddenly, a not so friendly voice spread from far away.
“Zhang Tianshan, you actually dare to appear! I think I had overestimated you.”
Hearing the words said, it wasn’t really friendly.
Lin Fan looked towards Zhang Tianxian and said calmly, “People are here to look for trouble.”
Zhang Tianxian was uneasy. He knew who it was but didn’t expect him to come so quickly.
Debtor, a huge debtor.
He wanted to run, but how could he now? No matter what, he was no longer the Sect Leader, and was just the deputy.
“Sect Leader, it is a long story. Martial Path Mountain still owes rent.” Zhang Tianxian said.
Very quickly, Huang Boren brought his servants and walked over.
“Zhang Tianshan, you can’t be trusted! My Huang Family rented Martial Path Mountain to you, and we agreed on the price, but you ran away in the end! If you don’t have the money, you could have told me. But you didn’t say anything and disappeared instead! Isn’t that a little too much?”
Zhang Tianxian couldn’t help but give an awkward smile, “Young Master Huang, things aren’t the way you think it is. This is a long story.”
Huang Boren said, “Don’t try to argue with me, I don’t care. You rented my mountain, so you have to pay. Anything else doesn’t concern me.”
To Zhang Tianxian, this was too ruthless.
He should have let him finish.
Lin Fan looked at Huang Boren. This Huang Family Young Master walked with confidence while raising his head with pride. He looked average, and there wasn’t anything handsome about him.
Overall, he was just…
Normal!
Huang Boren shouted around, “Everyone stop! Stop! Today if you don’t pay the rent, no more work can be done.”
Those workers in the midst of their jobs stopped when they saw that it was Huang Boren speaking.
He was the Huang Family’s Young Master of Jiang City.
Not listening to him and working would be them just asking for trouble.
“Young Master, why are you doing that? Can you give us some time?” Zhang Tianxian said.
He was facing many problems inside.
Haiz.
He thought that he would be able to see Martial Path Mountain rise up again, but he didn’t expect it to face such a matter when the renovations just began.
Huang Boren waved his hands, “No, you can’t be trusted and don’t have morals. If you didn’t have the money, then you should have come to the Huang Family and told me. I would be able to understand, but your actions were just too much. I won’t trust you anymore.”
Zhang Tianxian said helplessly, “I don’t have the money.”
Shua!
Huang Boren took out an abacus; his fingers moved quickly, and the abacus started to rattle. “I rented Martial Path Mountain to you for 700 silver a year. You haven’t paid for seven years, so that’s 4,900 silver. Come to the Huang Family to be a servant. You will give five silver a month, and you will have to work for 81 years and 6 months.”
“You won’t be able to live for so long, so the Huang Family will find a wife for you to give birth and have your children will take over your debt.”
“My Huang Family doesn’t owe anyone money, so no one can owe us any money either.”
Pa pa!
Huang Boren stored the abacus and hung it on his waste.
Zhang Tianxian’s eyes opened wide. He was speechless, was this even a thing?
“What a talent.” Lin Fan said.
He really didn’t expect that someone of such an age would actually be so intelligent.
Yuan Tianchu laughed and didn’t say anything, he was right.
Zhang Tianshan definitely had problems outside.
He owed so much money and couldn’t pay, so he had to find someone to take over. Lin Fan was naturally his target.
Maybe Zhang Tianshan would push Lin Fan out to say that he was the new Sect Leader, and make him pay all the debt.
Zhang Tianxian said, “Young Master Huang, isn’t that a little too much?”
Huang Boren didn’t care, “How is this vicious? Did my Huang Family pay you to rent it, or did we hold a knife to your neck saying we would kill you if you didn’t rent it? If you don’t have money, then move. You dragged this on and then ran away. Touch your heart, and tell us who is correct.”
The servants beside him held their backs straight. They came out to ask for money with their Young Master, so their actions were justifiable.
Young Master never needed them to fight.
He just talked loudly such that they couldn’t fight back.
In the past, Zhang Tianxian saw that this Huang Family Young Master was hard to deal with. Who knew that after just a few years, he would be impossible to argue with.
Liang Yongqi looked at Huang Boren.
Were Young Masters from big cities so overbearing when they spoke?
However, he felt that this Huang Boren didn’t understand the current situation.
Of course, what he was more interested in was how Lin Fan was going to deal with the matter.
Zhang Tianxian said, “Young Master Huang, let’s not talk about all this first. Let me introduce you to the new Sect Leader, Lin Fan. I am just a deputy, so don’t worry. We will hand over the rent.”
Huang Boren looked at Lin Fan and then said, “Such a decent person, but how did you end up getting conned by him? Let me tell you that he owes me 4,900 silver. That isn’t a small number. If he doesn’t pay, you have to pay it for him.”
“Young Master Huang, how can you say I conned him? This person is the son of someone I know. I wanted to let Martial Path Mountain rise up once more, so I let him lead us.” Zhang Tianxian said.
Times were tough.
Young people were getting better and better at speaking.
For example, this Huang Family Young Master, he was so young and didn’t have many skills, but his ability to count money was far above his.
Lin Fan thought about it for a moment, “One definitely has to pay money if they owe money, no one can change that. You should head to Huang Family to be a servant. It is just 80 plus years. The doors of Martial Path Mountain will forever be open for you.”
Zhang Tianxian was stunned.
“Kid, I am your father’s good friend.” Zhang Tianxian said in disbelief and his heart felt cold.
Yuan Tianchu smiled and didn’t say a word.
He knew that this was going to happen.
To make that surname Lin kid take responsibility for someone else was impossible. He wasn’t a fool, and he was intelligent too, so how would he fall for his tricks?
Zhou Zhongmao looked towards Zhang Tianxian and shook his head. How regretful, Uncle was right. He just didn’t expect the situation to be so terrible.
When they left, Uncle told him that Zhang Tianshan was his good friend, but he might not be having a good time. However, to Lin Wanyi, no matter how bad it was, he still had a Martial Path Mountain. After all, when he was young, he left a lot of silver for him.
Who knew that Zhang Tianxian had squandered all those riches.
Martial Path Mountain was a bottomless pit, and he gave a sky-high allowance to the disciples each month.
It was tough for them to even survive till now.
Zhou Zhongmao walked in front of Huang Boren and took in a deep breath, his body giving out a cracking sound. Like his muscles were expanding, his expression changed a little too.
Huang Boren looked at the scary looking person in front of him and said, “What do you want to do? One definitely has to return their debts. Money is money, and martial arts is martial arts. The two can’t be spoken about as the same thing.”
“It is impossible for you to use martial arts to make me yield. My Huang Family taught me that one is one and two is two. If you owe money, then return it. If you want to fight me, return my money first.”
“A talent.” Lin Fan said, “Cousin, back down.”
If he didn’t step up, this whole thing would be tough to solve.
This fellow was a real talent.
