Chapter 484 A Justified Reason

"this..."

"Assault?"

The two heads of the family look at me, and I look at you, but I don’t know what to say for a moment. I just thought to myself, aren’t you just quarrel? If we weren’t afraid that you would find fault in the future, who would be willing to give so much money?

In the eyes of the two heads of the family, Shen Lang was obviously just quarreling and extorting them. But they didn't dare to mention such words at all. Instead, they looked more respectful and more careful.

"How can this be blackmail? We are all willing to do this." Nangong Lie said with a smile on his face.

"Yes, yes, yes, this money is what you deserve, so where can it be considered extortion?" said the head of the Shangguan family repeatedly.

"Oh? I deserve it? Then tell me what I deserve it?" Shen Lang looked at the head of the Shangguan family with interest, "If there is no legitimate reason, I will not accept this money. Otherwise, if the matter spreads, others will say that I am bullying others with my power. Wouldn't it be a slander of the reputation of Qingyun Sect?"

"This..." The head of the Shangguan family wanted to slap himself, and he felt deeply that he was really mean. He said that he was not good at saying anything. He insisted that the money was worthy of Shen Lang. Now Shen Lang insisted that he gave him a reason, what should he do?

The head of the Nangong family was also full of frustration, thinking, there is no such frustration in the world. Not only did he have to give away more than 60 billion yuan of property, he also asked others to collect it, and even found a legitimate reason. This is too much bullying, right?

However, the head of the Nangong family knew that no matter how frustrated this matter was, even if Shen Lang was unwilling to collect the money, they would try their best to ask Shen Lang to accept the money.

Because Shen Lang collected the money, all the grievances were naturally written off. In the future, they could live their lives with peace of mind.

And if Shen Lang doesn't accept it, they will certainly not be at ease. Even if Shen Lang doesn't deal with them now, they will be worried that Shen Lang will deal with them in the future. Even if Shen Lang tells them that they will not cause trouble for them in the future, they will not be at ease completely.

So, this amount of money is actually their reassurance.

Only when Shen Lang received the money would they completely believe that all the grudges had been written off. Only then could they be sure that the Shangguan family and the Nangong family were safe.

However, Shen Lang made a mess at this time and asked them to find a right reason...

"Ahem..." I have to say that the two heads of the family were both people who had experienced strong storms. Although the whole thing happened suddenly, they still made up a reason in a very short period of time.

"Young Master Shen, you are unparalleled in gambling skills. Even Mr. Mo Da has lost to you. As long as you are willing, you can easily sweep the casinos in the city. You are the undisputed gambling king in Guyang City. But my Nangong family wants to do the gambling shop business..."

The head of the Nangong family laughed and said, "According to the rules of the gambling world, no matter who wants to do business in the gambling house, he must first worship the mountain and meet the gambling king. Therefore, the money we are going to give has nothing to do with Qingyun Sect. I hope that you will cover our gambling house business in the future, so that the flood will rush the Dragon King Temple and destroy your own people's places."

"That's right! That's the rule." The head of the Shangguan family echoed: "To be honest, Mr. Mo Da was respected as the king of gambling in the past. In fact, the three major families would draw out all the income from the gambling houses as bonuses every year and give it to Mr. Mo Da."

"After the gambling game at Haoke Gambling last night, Mr. Mo Da announced that he would wash his hands and leave the gambling world forever, so you are the new gambling king now. According to these rules, we will not only give you 60 billion yuan as a meeting gift, but also draw 10% of the dividends to you every year in the future."

"A 10% bonus?" Shen Lang held his chin and thought for a while. As his identity and status continued to rise, he felt more and more that the rules in the world of cultivation were really interesting.

If the three major families want to take root in Guyang City, they have to pay a expensive protection fee to Songhe Tower every year. They want to open a gambling shop. In order to prevent being smashed, they have to give the gambling king some face and give 10% of the bonus every year.

Shen Lang knew that this was probably the epitome of the strong prey on the weak in the world of cultivation. The noble figures never had to find ways to make money by themselves, but as long as they were willing, they would never be short of money.

But he doesn't hate such rules, nor does he hate money. Money is the foundation of material life. Who can leave money?

Moreover, the stronger the cultivation, the stronger the power, the more money it may need. A powerful existence like the ancient tribe of the wilderness must set up an auction house outside to make money. Of course, Shen Lang will also need money in the future.

The Nangong family and the Shangguan family have extremely good ability to make money, and the 10% bonus in the gambling house must not be too small. In the future, he has these two small treasuries and spends money every year, so he basically doesn’t have to worry about money, so why not do it?

Moreover, if he doesn't collect this money, the heads of the two major families will be frightened all day long. Maybe they will try their best to bother him and please him in the future. This is also quite annoying. It would be better...

The head of the Nangong family looked at Shen Lang's hesitant look and thought he was too little, so he said carefully: "Or what if it would be, 20% of the bonus?"

"Twenty percent?" Shen Lang's tone increased a little.

"Ah? I still think it's too little?" The head of the Shangguan family thought that Shen Lang was still not satisfied, so he began to cry poor: "In fact, 20% is already a lot. Although the business in the gambling house is easy to do, the family also has hundreds of people, and then all kinds of miscellaneous expenses are eliminated..."

The head of the Nangong family gritted his teeth and said, "If Mr. Shen insists, my Nangong family will accept it 30%!"

"Okay, 20% is enough. I won't make things difficult for you." Shen Lang looked at the pitiful two masters, and it was rare to feel a little pity. He thought to himself that he had no deep hatred with these two families, why bother them like this?

"Thank you, young master!"

"Thank you, young master!"

When the two masters heard this, they were both grateful and almost burst into tears.

Each person takes out 66.6 billion and has to take out 20% of the dividends in the gambling house. These seem to be a lot.

But they all understood that in front of Shen Lang, they were fish on the chopping board, not to mention a mere 20% bonus, if Shen Lang was a little unreasonable, even if they wanted to let them spend all their money at once, they would have no choice.

Only paying only tens of billions of spirit stones, plus 20% of the dividends, this is already a beautiful result in their very illusion.

All the grievances were written off, and the head of the Nangong family and the Shangguan family were relieved and felt relaxed.

However, the head of the Murong family and Murong Tianzong were even more nervous and fearful at this moment. They thought to themselves that the Nangong family and the Shangguan family had paid such a heavy price just to apologize. What should they do?
