"Yes, Family Head!"
The steward retreated, then organized the ships and entered the waters.
Sure enough, not long after, the band of thieves who had previously seized the Bo Family's goods appeared on the water again.
The thieves surrounded them in the center and shouted: "The usual rules, hand over everything quickly!"
Although somewhat fearful, the steward mustered courage and asked Xiu Huang: "May I ask if you're someone who can talk?"
Xiu Huang rolled his eyes: "Aren't you stating the obvious? Do I look like a mute, incapable of speaking?"
The steward's mouth twitched; these bandits were indeed one rougher than the last.
"This time, we are not transporting goods, but wish to have a discussion with you. After all, your actions disrupt harmony."
Xiu Huang's eyes shifted, just as Wang Yang had predicted.
The Bo Family couldn't bear it anymore and planned to negotiate with them.
"What's there to discuss? You transport goods, and we seize them—it's only natural, isn't it?"
