Over half an hour later, the guide returned; however, the expression he wore as he looked at Ouyang Jun was somewhat grim.
"How did it go?"
Everyone anxiously pressed for the outcome.
The guide hesitated for a moment before finally speaking, "They're demanding ten million."
Ouyang Jun sneered, "They really think we're easy marks, huh? Ten million, fine. You tell them, no problem. I refuse to believe today; I want to see who dares to take this ten million!"
As he spoke, Ouyang Jun pulled out his phone and didn't hesitate to call Gu Xu:
"Xu Zi, your wife has been kidnapped in the Wei District. Those bastards are asking for a ten million ransom. Deal with it yourself!"
Ouyang Jun hadn't wanted to make a big fuss initially. If those people had asked for less, he would have paid the money to keep the peace and wouldn't have taken issue with those Highland Reds.
