这句话的意思和原文中“the gangsters would quickly put a man out of business by destroying his shop.”是对应的;不交保护费,就会破坏生意,但怎么样破坏呢?是通过destroying his shop,因此,反过来,要保护的话,也就是protect his shop.
B答案中,premise是房子的意思,(可以查字典),就是指原文中的shop.答案的直译就是:保护这些人的商店不受破坏

他们没有危害那些(叫了保护费)的人们的店面。
他们不去危害那些(叫了保护费)的人们的店面。

这个要根据上下文来理解,而不仅仅是单靠这句话来看。好好研究一下你的书吧。

他们离开这些人的营业处所安然无恙。
