“Clearly, you guys saw that we agreed too readily, so you raised the price again!”

“6,000 an hour? If we still agree this time, are you guys going to raise the price further!?”

“Don’t get carried away!”

Zilong raised his hand to make everyone quiet. He took a deep breath and said, “Just name the price directly! We agreed, and you guys raised it again. We didn’t agree, and you still raised it. If we keep arguing like this, nothing will come out of it.”

The middle-aged man’s eyeballs rolled in disgust. He discussed in a low voice with the people who came with him. “It seems that he’s the one who made the decision. I heard what he said. Even if we demand for 6,000 an hour, he’ll agree.”

“He’s rich and generous,” someone said. “Since that’s the case, why don’t we ask for more? Our brothers can get more.”

“I wonder how long they’ll film here?”

“Even if they filmed here for eight hours, at 6,000 an hour, we’ll only get a total of 48,000,” the middle-aged man said. “Besides, it’s getting late. They definitely won’t be able to film here for that long. I reckon it’ll be at most three to four hours.”

“Then if we take 6,000 an hour, won’t we only get 18,000 or 24,000?”

“That’s right.” The middle-aged man nodded.

“No, that’s too little. We have to raise the price for him!”

“Then let’s make it a fixed price.” The middle-aged man’s expression was fierce. “Those who are bold will die at the price, and those who are timid will starve to death. We’ll directly ask for 100,000!”

“Sure!”

“I think it’s possible!”

“Big Brother, it’s up to you!”

The middle-aged man was the one who had initially proposed to extort them. He had brought them along and earned quite a lot of money through this method.

The people they had come to extort before were tourists who had come to climb the mountain.

Those tourists were at most two or three people. They didn’t dare to do anything to them.

Moreover, in order to prevent them from calling the police afterwards, they had already found a good excuse.

For example, the other party took their fruit and stepped on their bamboo shoots and so on.

Some people really had cheap hands. They didn’t need to set a trap for some people who would climb and pick the fruit trees when they saw them.

Some people did not do anything bad.

They would deliberately bury the bamboo shoots or other things in the ground and wait for them to step on them.

Then, they would ask for compensation.

It worked every time.

After the group of people finished discussing, the middle-aged man said to Zilong, “100,000 yuan. I don’t care how long you film. After the filming is over today, we will leave. We will not care about you anymore.”

“This is a fixed price. We will not raise the price anymore.” The middle-aged man sounded as if he still felt that he was quite honest.

“100,000 yuan!? You might as well be robbing us!” This time, even Zilong couldn’t suppress his anger. What kind of unruly people were these!

Zilong took out his phone. Seeing this, the middle-aged man hurriedly shouted, “What are you doing?”

“Calling the police!” Zilong said angrily. “In a society ruled by law, are you still lawless?”

“Brothers, go!” Seeing that Zilong actually wanted to call the police, the middle-aged man called everyone.

This group of people were obviously very experienced and taciturn. The middle-aged man called out, and without saying anything else, this group of people swarmed over and rushed towards the equipment.

To the production team, equipment was the most important thing, and it was especially expensive.

Everyone saw and all went to protect the equipment.

They didn’t have time to move the equipment away, so they protected them in their arms.

However, those people either had shovels or hammers in their hands. In any case, they were all armed.

The unarmed crew members were no match for them.

Moreover, they still had to protect the equipment. They couldn’t spare their hands to resist.

Many of them had been beaten up a lot, but they still held onto the equipment tightly.

Some people didn’t have enough strength. Even if they had protected the equipment at the beginning, they didn’t have the strength to hold on after being beaten up. Those people then took away the equipment.

Jiang Xun had been secretly taking recording those people’s words with her cell phone.

She was about to hand the cell phone to Qiyao and let her continue to film while she went to deal with those villagers.

Unexpectedly, a villager saw Jiang Xun filming them with her cell phone. He hurried over and shouted, “What are you taking pictures of?!”

As he said that, he was about to snatch Jiang Xun’s phone.

“Ah!” Qiyao was so scared that she screamed.

Seeing how beautiful Jiang Xun and Qiyao were, they must be actors. The villager did not dare to have any wicked thoughts, but wanted to capture them to threaten Zilong.

The villager attacked Qiyao, who had the biggest reaction.

“Ah!” Qiyao was so scared that she cried.

Jiang Xun kicked the villager away, grabbed the shovel in his hand, and swung the shovel to knock the hammer out of the other person’s hand.
