Chapter 792 - Shop with Dispute
Chapter 792 – Shop with Dispute
Su Tao naturally knew that he bumped into Jiang Qinghan’s body was purely an accident, and he did not intend to let this ambiguous atmosphere last any longer.
After he’s done with the dishes, he noticed that Jiang Qinghan was no longer around when he came out. Thus, he picked up his medical box and left the Yan Residence.
But just when he was coming out, Yan Sha came out of her room and came over with a smile, “Senior brother, are you going home now?”
“Yeah!” Su Tao was somewhat surprised as he looked at Yan Sha. He knew that she must have something to ask of him or she wouldn’t change her tone.
“What is it?”
“Can you send Little Wen back home?” Yan Sha smiled as she added, “She’s about to go back home by bus, but since you have a car, why don’t you send her along?”
Along? Sending Little Wen would require him to go around ten-odd kilometers. However, he did not refuse as he smiled, “Sure. I guarantee that I’ll deliver her home.”
Ten-odd minutes later, Little Wen came out carrying her clean school bag. She did not dare to look at Su Tao as she had her head lowered, showing her introverted personality.
In terms of appearance, Little Wen is definitely inferior compared to Yan Sha. However, she still looks rather delicate despite the acne on her forehead that added a little flaw to her looks. However, it’s only temporary. Once she passes puberty, her hormones will return back to normal, and at that time, her acne will disappear. In a sense, she belongs to the category of potential beauties like her disciple, Xiao Jingjing.
As Little Wen isn’t as extroverted as Yan Sha, she was rather quiet and only replied whenever Su Tao asked her a question.
“Turn left up ahead. You can just drop me by the roadside, I can go home myself.” Little Wen spoke in a soft voice.
“Is there parking inside?” Su Tao asked with a smile.
“There’s parking lots, but the alley is rather narrow.” Little Wen was worried that Su Tao’s driving skills weren't good enough. She knew that this car costs hundreds of thousands, and it will cost tons of money to fix if the car got scratched.
“Don’t worry about it. I guarantee that I’ll send you home.” Su Tao slowed down his speed and turned into the alley. But when he saw a vehicle driving in his way, he could only reverse the vehicle due to the narrow alley that could only accommodate one vehicle at a time. Thus, he could only wait for the coming vehicle to leave before he drove in.
Su Tao initially thought that Little Wen’s parents would pick a decent location, but he never expected that they would choose such an old alley. Perhaps it might be because of money, and the nearby households are more stable with a stable flow of business.
Watching Little Wen entering the shop, Su Tao saw Little Wen’s father rushing out as he knocked on the window and smiled, “Since you’re here, why don’t you have some tea inside?”
“It’s getting late, so it’ll be terrible if I interrupted your rest.” Su Tao smiled.
“It’s fine!” Little Wen’s father insisted as he continued, “You’ve helped us so much, so I insist that you come in and take a seat.”
After Su Tao came down from his vehicle, he paid attention to the hand of Little Wen’s father. He had already recovered, and he’s no different compared to an ordinary person now. This is also the reason why Little Wen’s father was so grateful to Su Tao.
Men play an important role in the family. Due to his nearly handicapped condition, he practically had to rely on his wife to play the important role in the family. But it’s different now since he could do labour work, regaining his confidence and dignity.
Little Wen’s mother already prepared a pot of tea as she even prepared a plate of fruits. Meanwhile, Su Tao looked around the shop, this shop is only roughly twenty square meters, and rather than calling it renovation, it’s more of cleaning up.
Tasting a few pieces of fruits, Su Tao asked with a smile, “With how developed the internet is, you guys have more channels for sales now that you have a shop. Nowadays, deliveries are extremely popular, and you guys can rely on this platform to obtain more orders. This way, customers won’t have to personally make a trip here to eat your food, not to mention that the delivery is done by professional riders. This way, you will be able to bring your business to a new height.”
Listening to Su Tao’s words, Little Wen’s father lit up as he smiled, “I happen to share the same view as you, but the share taken by the platform is too high.”
“By obtaining businesses through an online platform, it’s practically the same as saving on rent. You can make a calculation, and it should be still worthed it.” Su Tao shook his head with a smile.
“I’ll contact an online platform tomorrow. I have been too cautious, and I even chased off someone who tried to promote, but your words bring some sense in me.” Little Wen’s father smiled.
“You and your stubbornness personally. It looks like you’re only willing to listen to Physician Su’s words.” Little Wen’s father smiled as she came over.
Shaking his head, Little Wen’s father laughed, “He’s a doctor, so I naturally have to listen to him.”
As Little Wen’s mother shook her head, she returned to cleaning up the shop, leaving Su Tao chatting with her husband.
Suddenly, a commotion came from outside as the face of Little Wen’s father changed. Wearing a smile, he looked at Su Tao, “I’ll go take a look outside.”
“Let me go with you!” Su Tao could feel that there’s something more to this matter.
There were ten-odd people standing outside, led by three men with tattoos on their arms. When they saw Little Wen’s father, they spoke out unhappily, “I already told you not to rent this place, so why did you still rent it?”
“Brother, I have already paid two years of rent, and it’s already too late when you told me.” Little Wen’s father wore a fawning smile as he handed a stick of cigarette over.
“Boss Biao, we have so many of us here, and he’ll definitely know what to do after some lesson!” A hoodlum behind yelled.
It’s mainly because they have the advantage of quantity, while the other party only has two men.
Standing by the side, Su Tao finally figured everyone out. So it turns out that this shop has disputes.
They initially thought that they could save money on rent by renting this place, but they did not investigate well.
“Silence. I’m a reasonable person, and the landlord of this shop owes me ¥200,000. If you guys wish to conduct business here, then pay up for him. Otherwise, you guys can dream of conducting a business here.” Boss Biao was clearly experienced. This is a lawful society, and if you cause trouble and destroy the personal property of someone else, you will be judged by law.
However, he doesn’t have to take any action. He only has to get someone to cause some trouble here every few days and there’s nothing the law can do to him.
Businesses emphasise on amiability, and if everyone knows that this place isn’t safe, who could come here to spend?
“Boss Biao, I’m only doing a small business, and the monthly rental is only ¥3,000. So aren’t you making things difficult for asking ¥200,000?” Little Wen’s father had also come in contact with these people in the past, but he never expected that they would come while Su Tao is around.
At this moment, Little Wen’s father was filled with regret that he chose this shop because it was cheap.
“No debts without creditors; no hatred without cause. The landlord was the one who owed you money, and now that we’ve rented this shop, so that means that we’re the owner here for the time being. It’s it too unreasonable for you to cause trouble to us?” Su Tao reprimanded coldly as he knew that Little Wen’s father couldn’t result in this matter.
“Yeah, we’re really related to this shop. Back then, the landlord wrote on the IOU that the shop would be given up to us if he couldn’t pay up.” Boss Biao took out a piece of paper as he waved it in his hand.
Knitting his brows, Su Tao sneered in disdain, “It’s just a paper, and how would I know if it’s true? If you can get the landlord to prove that this piece of paper is real, then I might be able to consider it.”
“Bloody hell!” Boss Biao spat a mouthful of phlegm on the ground as he continued, “You stinking brat, you’re pretty cocky aren’t you? Looks like you won’t know how to behave if I don’t teach you a lesson!”
As he spoke, he lifted his foot and walked towards Su Tao.
Boss Biao wasn’t short, and he’s only half a head shorter than Su Tao. Coming over to Su Tao, he grabbed onto Su Tao’s collar. Watching this scene, Little Wen’s father was startled as he did not want Su Tao to be dragged into this matter. Hence, he immediately grabbed onto Boss Biao’s wrist and begged, “Boss Biao, please don’t touch him. He has nothing to do with this shop.”
“Get lost!” Boss Biao waved his hand as Little Wen’s father was pushed a few meters away.
Using his other hand, Boss Biao tried to drag Su Tao by the collar over, but to his surprise, Su Tao just wouldn’t budge.
The reason why he could be hired as hired thugs for debts is because he has decent skills, not to mention that he was born stronger than others.
However, he never imagined that he wouldn’t be able to move Su Tao.
Su Tao seemed fragile, and he only looks to be around 70 kilograms at best. When Boss Biao was lifting weights in the gym, he could easily lift something of this weight.
“Get over here!” Boss Biao roared as he mustered all his strength.
In the end, he only managed to rip a small part of Su Tao’s shirt, but he wasn’t able to budge Su Tao.
He was instantly surprised as he knew that he had bumped into an iron plate this time. Hence, he immediately loosen his grip as he took several steps back.
However, before he could pull back his hand, his hand was grabbed by Su Tao and with a gentle twist, Su Tao easily put him in pain as he could only subconsciously follow Su Tao’s force. After making a full spin, Su Tao took advantage of the momentum as he swept out at Boss Biao’s leg, causing the latter to be lifted in the air before he fell onto the ground.
“ARGHH! MY ARM BROKE!” Boss Biao started screaming.
Su Tao knew that he’s only dealing with a hoodlum, so he did not take it too far.
As the saying does, doctors have medical ethics, while martial artists have martial ethics.
With his current attainment in martial arts, he had already exceeded the scope of an ordinary person. So unless absolutely necessary, he will definitely not take the initiative to bully others.
The difference between him and Boss Biao is akin to an adult and a three-year-old kid. If Su Tao was serious in his move, Boss Biao will definitely suffer.
However, Su Tao only wanted to teach Boss Biao a lesson, so he only made use of a technique to dislocate Boss Biao’s arm.
Although it wasn’t lethal, Boss Biao will still need at least ten-odd days to half a month to recover in the hospital. Furthermore, he won’t be able to do any heavyload in the future or his arm will easily dislocate.
When Little Wen’s mother heard the dispute outside, she immediately called the cops. When the cops arrived, the captain immediately recognised Su Tao as he knew that this won’t be an easy matter to resolve now.
