Li Yishan demanded a ransom of thirty silver taels.
Although Butcher Hu was relatively well-off compared to an ordinary family, he couldn't produce thirty silver taels. He only gave Chu Lingguang ten.
Chu Lingguang, in turn, gave Li Yishan five silver taels.
After receiving the silver, Li Yishan couldn't help but say to his men, "From now on, don't touch anyone from Wine Street. Spread the word. Consider it a gesture of respect for the future Martial Arts Scholar. We'll split this silver and go for a drink."
"Yes, sir!"
Li Yishan's men nodded.
They could all see that with Chu Lingguang's Martial Arts, he didn't need to reason with them at all. His Spear Technique was more than enough to kill them all.
