Chapter 1625 I really can’t do it

The next morning, Pi Yangyang had just woken up from meditation when he felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere outside.

He looked through the window and saw a number of fully armed personnel gathering in a tense manner.

In the square not far away, Wang Ba'er was talking to a man dressed in white and wearing a white hat.

It seemed that Wang Ba'er was very humble in front of this person, as if he was begging for something.

The man in white, with a cigar in his mouth, didn't even look at Wang Ba'er. He even took a deep puff of the cigarette and blew the smoke directly into Wang Ba'er's face.

This was an insult to a person, but Wang Ba'er still endured it.

Suddenly, Wang Ba'er pointed this way.

The man in white turned his head and looked over, and happened to meet Pi Yangyang's eyes.

The two were nearly fifty meters apart, but Pi Yangyang could still feel the arrogance and disdain in the man's eyes.

Wang Ba'er seemed to be explaining something to him, but the man in white was not moved at all.

Soon, two armed men brought over a sofa chair and gave the man in white a seat.

Wang Ba'er seemed a little helpless. After hesitating for a moment, he turned and walked towards the house where Pi Yangyang was resting.

"Chairman...did you have a good rest last night?"

Wang Ba'er's face looked a little ugly, and revealed a bit of embarrassment and annoyance.

Pi Yangyang knew that something must have happened between him and the man in white, so he asked directly, "Who is that man?"

"He is Bai Qu's adjutant, and he came here to check on their armed personnel..."

Wang Ba'er replied.

"Just checking?" Pi Yangyang asked suspiciously.

Although Pi Yangyang didn't hear clearly what they said just now, he could tell from their expressions that they must have had a conflict.

Sure enough, Wang Ba'er's mouth twitched, and he said with some hatred: "He came to tell us that Peng Hu has gathered troops and is preparing to rob our mining area. Moreover, Peng Hu has also joined forces with another force to deal with us.

"Then he said that his Bai family can protect our mining area, but starting from this month, we must hand over 50% of the profits!"

As he said this, he couldn't help but spit.

"Such a big appetite?"

Pi Yangyang was stunned and said subconsciously.

"At the beginning, they only wanted 10%. In the past two years, their appetite has grown. In less than a year, the rate has increased from 10% to 30%. But they are still not satisfied. Now they want 50%... If we give them 50%, we will be working for them for nothing..."

Wang Ba'er said angrily.

Pi Yangyang smiled calmly, "So, maybe next year it will be 60%..."

"Yes, they won't be satisfied."

Wang Ba'er nodded and said.

"I'll go meet him."

Pi Yangyang said calmly.

"Chairman, this man is arrogant and rude. I wanted him to come see you, but he didn't even want to come up..."

Wang Ba'er reminded a little worriedly.

Pi Yangyang waved his hand and said, "I have seen many arrogant people, and he is not the only one."

Then, he and Wang Ba'er prepared to go to the square.

Tie Niu, Chu Ge and others had also woken up, and seeing this, they all followed to the square.

At this time, nearly a hundred armed men had gathered in the square, and one of their leaders was reporting to the man in white.

"Chairman, this person is Wu Tianhan, and he is Bai Qu's number one subordinate..."

As they walked, Wang Ba'er introduced them to Pi Yangyang.

Pi Yangyang said "hmm", and arrived in the blink of an eye, a distance of dozens of meters.

A group of them came, but Wu Tianhan acted as if he didn't see them. He still had one leg on the armrest of the sofa, holding a cigar in his mouth, and lecturing the armed men.

Pi Yangyang took a glance and saw that the man was in his early thirties, with a proud look on his face.

He wore two ruby ​​and sapphire rings on his fingers and a gold and jade necklace around his neck, and looked like a local tycoon.

He was giving a loud speech to the armed men, but he was speaking in dialect and Pi Yangyang couldn't understand a word he said.

"He said that there will be a battle soon. If it is fought well, everyone will be rewarded. Those who make contributions will also receive special bonuses..."

Wang Ba'er translated quietly on the side.

A few minutes later, Wu Tianhan finally finished speaking. He took the cup of water handed to him by his subordinate and took a sip of tea.

"Adjutant Wu, this is Mr. Pi, the chairman of our Yan's Company. If you have anything to say, you can talk to our chairman directly."

It was not until Wu Tianhan took a sip of water that Wang Ba'er spoke cautiously.

Wu Tianhan then raised his eyelids, glanced at Pi Yangyang, and said proudly: "Chairman? So, you have the final say on matters here?"

He spoke fluent Chinese, which surprised Pi Yangyang.

Pi Yangyang said calmly: "Yes."

Although it was morning, the sunlight still felt burning when it hit people.

One of his men opened a large black umbrella and covered Wu Tianhan's head.

He still looked lazy, with his legs resting on the armrest of the sofa, and said slowly: "Well, you should know who is protecting your mining area, right?"

Pi Yangyang nodded and said, "I know, Bai Qu from the Bai family."

Wu Tianhan was slightly stunned, and finally looked at Pi Yangyang again, and said with a bit of annoyance: "It's good to know."

At this time, Wang Ba'e interrupted and said, "Adjutant Wu, it's a bit sunny outside. I think we should go to the cabin and talk it over."

Wu Tianhan waved his hand and said coldly: "No, right here! Your wooden house is too messy, I'm not used to it."

Wang Ba'er's eyelids twitched, and then he waved his hand to call two of his men over, and ordered them, "Go, bring a chair for the chairman."

The two men quickly moved a chair over. After Pi Yangyang sat down, he said calmly, "Adjutant Wu, just tell me the purpose of your coming here."

Wu Tianhan said proudly: "According to our intelligence, someone has set their sights on your mining area. Moreover, it is not just one force."

"and then?"

Pi Yangyang was not at all fluctuating and remained calm and composed.

"You should know that this is not China. The forces here are complicated. If it weren't for our protection, your mining area would have been swallowed up by others long ago."

Wu Tianhan continued.

"I know that. Thank you for protecting the mine over the years. However, as far as I know, the mine has not treated you unfairly. Every year, 30% of the profits are given to you as compensation."

Pi Yangyang nodded and said.

"In the past, we paid 30% as protection money, but now the situation is different. The people who have targeted you seem to have made up their minds to take over your mining area. If we want to protect the mining area, my people will fight with them to the death, even to the point of bloodshed!"

Wu Tianhan handed the teacup in his hand to the follower behind him. His expression suddenly became serious and his tone became a little cold.

"So, if we still follow the previous 30% commission, I'm afraid it won't be possible."

Hearing this, Pi Yangyang smiled calmly and said slowly: "I also think that 30% is indeed impossible."

After hearing this, Wang Ba'er, Chu Ge and others were slightly stunned and looked at Pi Yangyang in surprise and suspicion.

In their opinion, a 30% commission is already the limit.

But Pi Yangyang actually agreed with Wu Tianhan and said that it was not enough?

Wu Tianhan finally smiled and said proudly, "It seems that you know the current situation very well! I like to deal with people who know the current situation, so that no one will be tired."

As he spoke, he lowered his legs from the armrest of the sofa.

Wang Ba'er said anxiously: "Chairman, 30% commission is already very high, if..."

Before he could finish, Pi Yangyang gently waved his hand to stop him.

Wu Tianhan's smile froze, he stared at Pi Yangyang and slowly stretched out a palm, and said coldly: "If you still want us to continue to protect you, then the annual commission will be increased to 50%!"

Pi Yangyang's eyes flashed, still smiling, and said calmly: "I think you misunderstood what I meant."

Wu Tianhan was stunned, looked at Pi Yangyang in confusion, and asked, "What do you mean?"

Pi Yangyang said: "What I mean is that 30% is a bit high. It's really impossible."

Wu Tianhan didn't react for a moment. After half a minute, he suddenly stood up, stared at Pi Yangyang excitedly, and said fiercely: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

Pi Yangyang stood up slowly, looked at him fearlessly, and said in a solemn and cold tone: "Go back and tell your master that if he is willing, he can restore the 10% commission and we can continue to cooperate. If he is not willing, then please do as you wish!"

Wu Tianhan was so angry that his whole body was shaking. After a moment, he threw the cigar in his hand to the ground and shouted angrily: "Okay, you wait!"

Then he shouted orders to the assembled armed men.

Soon, he jumped into a jeep and left the mining area with the armed men.
