“If you guys are willing to live here today, then so be it. If you’re not, then so be it. I know this room is a little shabby, but even if you guys aren’t willing to live here, there will definitely be tenants moving in today. I’m just making a little less money.”
Li Li counted out the room fees that Yun Xi and the others had paid from the pouch at his waist. He slammed it on the table, and his tone sounded particularly fearless.
Even now, Li Li still felt that the timing of their arrival was not right. He had never thought that this matter was his fault.
He knew that he was unreasonable, but he had never thought that he had made a mistake in this matter. Moreover, he did not believe that he would be fined and imprisoned for such a small matter.
Zhou Lin did not want to waste any more words with this unreasonable, black-hearted boss. Fortunately, there was a landline phone in this room. Zhou Lin picked up the landline phone and dialed a number.
Then, he talked to the person opposite him.
“I want to report that there is an illegal merchant who is tricking customers. Please come over and thoroughly investigate this matter! Many of the customers have encountered this kind of unfair treatment. Now, I want you to come over and help me deal with it!”
Then, there was a period of silence.
Then, Zhou Lin’s voice rang out. He told them the exact location of their current location and carefully went to the door number at the door of the room.
After saying that, he hung up the phone. Li Li stood at the door with his eyes wide open. Could it be that he had really offended someone that he could not afford to offend?
However, seeing that the two of them were not dressed in gold or silver, Li Li did not think that they were wealthy people. Could it be that they were trying to scare him?
Li Li grew up in such a remote and desolate place. It was because of this unique location that he managed to set up a boarding house. However, deep down, he was still a person who did not have much experience.
In his impression, people who had the ability or money were usually covered in jewelry. Thick gold necklaces, jade-green jade bracelets, and dazzling gold clothes were the symbols of the rich.
People like Yun Xi and Zhou Lin who looked like they were wearing ordinary clothes should not be rich people. Little did they know that the more powerful the family was, the more low-profile clothing they would wear. They might not even wear branded clothes, however, that one piece of clothing could already be worth more than a dozen famous brands.
“Stop putting on airs and trying to scare people! Do you really think that I’m scared to death? Since you’ve found someone to handle this matter, then I’ll wait here with you today to see if there really is someone to help you handle this matter today.”
Li Li also started to argue.
Most of the police here did not do anything. Moreover, there had never been any major cases in this area. Petty theft was already considered the biggest case.
Li Li bolstered his courage and straightened his back to counter-attack.
“Yun Xi!”
Yun Xi wanted to go forward and ‘have a good talk’ with this Li Li, but was stopped by Zhou Lin.
“Leave this matter to the people here. Since the boss has already said that he’s willing to wait here with us, then we’ll just wait.”
Zhou Lin was not afraid that the boss would wait for them here. Instead, he was afraid that he would run away because he was afraid.
The roads here were indeed rugged, and they were full of twists and turns. If they were to hide because they had done something wrong, it would be difficult for others to find them.
“Hello! I received a report and came to check on the situation here!”
Soon, someone really came to the door. Li Li’s heart was already beating wildly.
“Zhou Lin! Long time no see!”
The person who came opened the door and directly entered the room. When he saw a familiar face, he greeted him.
When Zhou Lin made the call, he felt that the voice on the other side was very familiar, but in the end, he could not hear it clearly through the phone. It turned out that the person on the other side was really his old comrade-in-arms who had fought side by side with him many years ago!
