1647 Give You Money for the People
“I can give you money, but not the seeds,” Qiao Mei said.
“That won’t do! You have to give us the seeds! Oh right! You also have to get your mother to marry my father! Even if my father recovers, he will still be paralyzed! Your mother must wait upon him! Your mother can’t beat someone up and not pay the price!” Zhao Kai said unreasonably.
Zhao Kai was not satisfied with just 100,000 dollars as it would not last him long. He had tasted the profits that could be made from the seeds and did not want to let it go so easily. Moreover, it was hard to say if Zhao Liu would live or die in the near future. He did not want to wait upon that dirty old man!
“You’re talking nonsense! I’m the one who hit Zhao Liu! It has nothing to do with them. If you want to kill or torture someone, come at me!” Zhao Fei said agitatedly.
“Shoo, shoo, shoo! Who would believe what you say! I don’t care, it was Li Gui who hit him! She has to be responsible for my father!” Zhao Kai said.
If they let Zhao Kai continue, he would probably become more and more fearless and think that they were easy to bully. In a while, even the factory would be part of his demands!
“Let’s go. You people enjoy yourselves and have fun.” Qiao Mei grabbed Xia He and turned to leave. Zhao Kai hurriedly stopped her.
“What are you doing? Who says you can leave! Come back!” Zhao Kai roared.
“I can’t fork out the amount of money you want and I won’t give you the seeds. As for my mother, don’t even think about it. If you like to kidnap people so much, then continue with it. Whether you die or not has nothing to do with me. Whether they die or not also has nothing to do with me. My mother is sitting at home all fine now. Go ahead and burn them. I want to see what else you can use to threaten me.” Qiao Mei left after saying that.
“Hey! Don’t go! How can you leave just like that! There are three lives at stake here!” Zhao Kai said in a panic.
“So what if it’s three lives? It doesn’t matter even if it’s 10 lives. If you’re so capable, then go and kidnap my mother again and I’ll see if you can get out of it alive! I’ll go to the police after I leave this place and they will definitely come and look into it. It’s none of my business. It’s not like I’m a police officer.” With that, Qiao Mei continued walking. Zhao Kai totally panicked. He did not expect this woman to be so ruthless.
Seeing that the money they wanted was going to be gone, Zhao Kun immediately ran up to Qiao Mei and blocked her way. “Elder Sister! Don’t leave! My brother said those things just now in a fit of anger. It doesn’t count!”
“Who’s your elder sister? Use proper terms. Do you have any say in this family?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.
“Yes! Of course I have a say! We don’t want much, just 10,000 dollars! As long as we can cure our father’s illness! We don’t want anything else!” Zhao Kai said ingratiatingly.
“I know about your father’s injury. I’ll give you 6,000 dollars, which is more than enough for your father’s medical and nutrition expenses for a year. That’s all I can give, not a single cent more. If you still want more, then go to the hospital to get a fee quote. I promise you won’t even get 3,000 dollars,” Qiao Mei said seriously.
If it was 6,000 dollars, then so be it! It was much better than not having a single cent! At most, he would take this money and move out with Zhao Liu! He would let Zhao Kai live alone in this dilapidated village!
“Alright! I’ll go and release them now! You have to give me the money now! How about that!” Zhao Kun said agitatedly.
Qiao Mei sized up Zhao Kun carefully. She did not expect this kid to be so bold. She had misjudged him back then.
“If you can make the decision, then I’ll give you the money. However, we have to sign an agreement and also get your village chief to be our witness. We can’t give you the money so casually,” Qiao Mei said warily.
“Wait a while! I’ll go and look for the village chief to do up the agreement now! I’ll be right back! Wait for me!” Zhao Kun ran towards Zhao Kuo’s house. They did not have pen and paper now, only clothes and charcoal. They found a big piece of cloth and wrote the agreement on it. Qiao Mei did not mind as long as it could be read clearly.
After signing the agreement, Qiao Mei took out 6,000 dollars and said, “Let them go. They must come with me and I’ll leave the money here for you. If you can’t let them follow me, then don’t even think about getting this money.”
“You haven’t paid the ransom yet!” Zhao Kai said stubbornly.
Zhao Kun quickly covered Zhao Kai’s mouth and said, “You still have the cheek to say such things. If she reports this matter to the police station, none of us will be able to get away!”
