Chapter 625: The Person He Found
Editor: Henyee Translations
Zheng Gang wondered if there was something wrong with this person’s brain.
If your master liked it first, why didn’t he buy it? If you didn’t buy it yourself, why are you blaming others for taking action? What kind of people are these?
Seeing that they were silent, the middle-aged man became even angrier. “Did you hear that? Our master took a fancy to this shop first. Our master only went back to consider for a day, and you intercepted him. Aren’t you being too unreasonable? There has to be a first-come, first-served rule, right?”
Gu Yundong had never heard of such a thing. She turned her head and sized up the middle-aged man. She smiled and said, “What a nice thing to say. What do you mean by going back to consider for a day? I’m afraid you wanted to lower the price, right? You clearly knew that the original owner of this shop was in a hurry to sell it, but you still dawdled and wanted to buy this shop at a low price. Are you blaming others for your bad intentions?”
Did he think everyone was a fool?
The middle-aged man’s expression changed when he heard that.
“In short, we took a fancy to this shop first. How much did you buy it for? We’ll give it to you.”
Gu Yundong regretted talking to him just now. What was there to talk about with a fool?
Shao Qingyuan stood in front of the middle-aged man with a cold expression. “Get out.”
“You…” Before he could finish, he couldn’t help but shrink his neck and look at Shao Qingyuan in fear.
In the end, the middle-aged man straightened his neck for a moment and took two steps back in fear.
This person looked fierce. If he attacked, wouldn’t he suffer?
He snorted coldly and flicked his sleeves before leaving.
When they reached the door, he pointed at them. “Just you wait.”
Without waiting for Shao Qingyuan to look over, he quickly ran away.
As soon as he left, Zheng Gang couldn’t help but frown. “Boss, will this person bring us trouble?”
“There won’t be any trouble.”
“After all, we just came to the prefectural city. If the other party is rich…” Zheng Gang was worried. He was used to being cautious. When doing business, he would not offend anyone, especially when he had just arrived at an unfamiliar place.
But Gu Yundong did not seem to care, nor did Shao Qingyuan.
He sighed.
Gu Yundong saw that he was still very worried, so she smiled and explained, “Uncle Zheng, you don’t have to worry too much. If this Zhou family’s steward is rich and powerful and we can’t offend him, when we went to Jinxiu Restaurant two days ago, the shopkeeper and the waiter would have mentioned it.”
Moreover, the other party was the one who was arrogant and unreasonable first. If they did not beat up such a person, what should they do? Gu Yundong felt that if she showed weakness, the steward would definitely push his luck.
Zheng Gang was stunned. It made sense.
The three of them continued to look at the shop, but not long after, there was another commotion outside the door.
Zheng Gang thought that the middle-aged man had returned, but he didn’t expect that it wasn’t. It was a few hooligans from the streets. They seemed to be collecting protection fees in this area.
As soon as the hooligan leader entered, he looked at the three people opposite him and asked, “If you want to open a shop here, you have to know the rules.” “What are the rules?” Shao Qingyuan took a step forward and narrowed his eyes as he sized them up.
The hooligans were a little afraid of his cold face, but they still had some confidence because they had more people. “This street is covered by us, so the shops along the street have to give us some protection money. It’s not much. A hundred taels a month.”
Zheng Gang sucked in a breath of cold air. “You guys are robbing.”
Gu Yundong narrowed her eyes and looked at the middle-aged man hiding outside the shop.
It was indeed the people he had called over.
