Chapter 163: The Storm Approaches
There was no need to doubt it—the creditors who had come knocking had all been arranged by Yang Feiyue.
He could not allow He Yuanxin to think of another way out during this period and create further complications. So he had simply arranged for several of Qingfeng Escort Agency’s creditors to come to the door and drain the agency of every last coin.
After He Yuanxin finished handling the funeral arrangements, utterly exhausted in both body and mind, he had no choice but to seek help from the Yulong Gang at once.
As long as the land deeds in his possession, along with the roster of more than one hundred members of Qingfeng Escort Agency, were handed over to Wangchuan, the agency’s affairs would thereafter be taken over by the Yulong Gang.
Wangchuan had long been prepared. He accepted the land deeds and carefully checked the roster, the outstanding debts, and the required pension compensation.
The total pension compensation amounted to twenty taels of gold.
The debts consisted mostly of wages due this month to the escort agency’s skilled hands—seventy-five taels of silver in total—along with seventy taels of silver in remaining cargo payments and thirty taels of silver in outstanding funeral expenses.
Wangchuan nodded.
With the land deeds in hand, once these people received their monthly wages, Qingfeng Escort Agency would stabilize. The rest would be manageable.
