"Speak up, quickly."
Just now everyone was falsely alarmed, and indeed, they were somewhat angry since most of them were regulars at Qinger Building.
Zhang San cleared his throat and continued, "I have no past grudges nor recent disputes with Qinger Building. The reason for my actions was actually at the behest of Prince Pu, who promised me a hundred silver taels upon success. Being poor and desperate, I couldn't resist the temptation and took on the job."
Upon hearing this, there was a tumult among the crowd: "Really? Why would Prince Pu want to trouble Qinger Building?"
Zhang San also expressed ignorance: "I really don't know why; I just did as he asked."
The crowd speculated: "Could it be that Qinger Building is stealing his business?"
Prince Pu owns a Brothel in the Capital, which was quite successful before Qinger Building opened and was well-known in the Capital.
However, since the opening of Qinger Building, his business has been declining to the point of near closure.
