Rinaldo was relieved.
When his uncle had asked him to go with him to help shake a debtor into paying what he owed him, Rinaldo had been alarmed. His uncle could be quite nasty with men who owed him money. When his uncle had told him that the man was that old sea captain who was a fixture at his uncle's bar, Rinaldo had been even more alarmed - he really didn't want to rough up the old man, whom he thought rather sexy. But he had to obey his uncle.
When they arrived at the captain's place, it turned out that Rinaldo's uncle had no intention of getting rough. He knew of the old man's weakness and he was going to take full advantage of this knowledge to "persuade" the captain to pay off his debts.
Now Rinaldo was no longer reluctant to help his uncle. In fact, he hoped he too would have a chance to do a little gentle persuasion.
