Teacher Yu also put on a smile to welcome him. He walked forward and extended his hand. “Hello, Master Gu. I’m Professor Hu Zhongtian’s disciple. I had a misunderstanding with this boss. I didn’t expect to alarm you. Please let the boss let this matter go on account of Professor Hu.”
Master Gu only glanced at everyone coldly and didn’t seem to care about Teacher Yu. This made Teacher Yu’s heart skip a beat. He thought to himself that if even his teacher couldn’t do anything, it would probably be difficult to end today.
After all, his teacher was an honorary external expert of the Burning Light Ancient City, but the other party did not buy it at all. It could be seen that the other party’s status was high and mighty and did not look at him at all.
Moreover, Teacher Yu had also thought that if today’s matter was reduced to a small matter, it would definitely affect Master Gu’s prestige in the Burning Light Ancient City. Therefore, no matter what, he would not be kind unless someone with a greater background could suppress Master Gu!
However, he clearly did not know such a person and could not even mention his name.
Master Gu glanced at everyone before turning around and saying calmly to
Teacher Yu, “Professor Hu’s student?”
Teacher Yu thought that there was a chance and hurriedly nodded.
Unexpectedly, Master Gu changed the topic and said sternly, “Are you really students who are messing around? Do you think you can offset the shop owner’s losses by mentioning Professor Hu? Or do you think the bosses who do business with me are easy to bully?!”
The last few words were almost shouted. The dozen or so thugs behind Master Gu instantly understood and quickly surrounded Teacher Yu and more than ten students.
Feeling the powerful pressure of the other party, the students were a little afraid. Their bodies trembled slightly, but they looked around, not knowing what to do.
Only Xu Jiajia, as the daughter of a military family, had a backbone that was unafraid of everything. She stood in the crowd with a burning gaze.
Seeing that everyone was already afraid, Master Gu fiddled with the Vajra Bodhi in his hand and smiled. “Actually, this matter is simple. As long as you buy this blue and white porcelain and facilitate a business deal, the shop owner will recover his losses and you can also obtain an antique. Isn’t that wonderful? Although it’s broken, as Professor Hu’s disciple, Teacher Yu must be a repair expert, right? It’s still worth a lot after repair!”
“This
Teacher Yu’s heart skipped a beat. He had just identified the blue and white porcelain as real, but it wasn’t very precious. If it was on the market, it would probably be five to six thousand yuan.
The stall owner had sold it for a high price of 68,000 yuan previously. It was impossible for him to sell it to them at a lower price. It was obvious that Master Gu was biased and wanted them to take the blame.
Although they knew that the stall owner was extorting them, they were not strong enough to stop him.
Teacher Yu’s mind raced. Just as he was helpless, he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind. He subconsciously wanted to look back, but Master Gu raised his hand and pulled his attention back.
“Why? Do you want to deny it?” As Master Gu spoke, he came to the side of a group of students and sized up each of them with a condescending aura. Finally, his gaze landed on Xu Jiajia.
Because only Xu Jiajia did not lower her head under his gaze. Not only did she not avoid his gaze, but she even looked at him for a moment. There were no ripples in her eyes. Clearly, she did not take him seriously at all.
This piqued Master Gu’s interest. He looked down at Xu Jiajia, who was a head shorter than him, and smiled. “Little girl, you don’t seem to be very convinced.
Do you think I’m not open-minded?”
Xu Jiajia said calmly, “Master Gu did not do a good job.”
“Haha.” Master Gu shook his head and laughed. As if he felt that his dignity was being looked down on, he looked up and gave a look.
Immediately, a burly man in a Chinese tunic suit with a tattoo on his neck walked forward. “Master Gu, please instruct me.”
Master Gu waved his hand and pointed at the two girls beside Xu Jiajia who had broken the antiques. He scolded angrily, “Every injustice has its perpetrator and every debt has its debtor. Detain these two girls here and call their families. Let them go when you take the money!” —Boom!
In an instant, everyone’s expressions changed.
Teacher Yu hurriedly went forward and begged in a low voice, “Master Gu, Master Gu, don’t be like this. You’re a magnanimous person. Why are you making things difficult for a student?”
“Get lost! Who do you think you are? It’s useless even if your master comes!” Master Gu shouted and pushed Teacher Yu back repeatedly. He only stopped when he bumped into the student behind him. “It’s only right and proper to compensate according to the price for destroying someone else’s things. If you don’t hand over the matter today, I, Gu Daozi, will have lived in vain if I can walk out of the Burning Light Ancient City!”
This…
Instantly, the group of students turned pale as if they had fallen into an ice cave. Someone even secretly winked at the two girls and whispered, “If it doesn’t work, let’s compensate.. ‘
“Yeah, you learn from your mistakes.”
Faced with the persuasion of their classmates, the two girls’ eyes were filled with tears. They felt especially aggrieved, but they knew that they could only admit defeat today.
A few burly men in Chinese tunic suits strode forward, wanting to keep the two female students. At the side, Xu Jiajia glared at them and blocked in front of them fearlessly. Clearly, she did not intend to compromise.
“Heh, this little girl is really bold!” Master Gu sneered and waved his hand, indicating that his subordinates did not have to worry.
Facing the burly men who were about to attack, the atmosphere at the scene was tense!
“Jiajia, what happened?”
However, at this moment, a man’s voice suddenly sounded from afar, interrupting the tense atmosphere..
