“We know you are saying you will have money later, but we don’t have much to do, so we need your money now.”

“We know you say you have a lot of money, so give us just a little and we will leave you alone.”

“We know you say you don’t have money, but we don’t have any, so give us yours and we’ll leave.”

“We know you are saying you don’t have much money, but you should share what you have.”

Explanation

The speakers say they know the person does not have much money, but they have none at all. They demand one hundred pounds and promise to leave, which matches choice C: “We know you say you don’t have money, but we don’t have any, so give us yours and we’ll leave.”
