Chapter 626: Kicked Off
Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Yundong thought that this person would go back to his Zhou Mansion to call for help. She did not expect him to have some brains. He was looking for the local hooligans to cause trouble here.
At this moment, the middle-aged man was hiding at the entrance of the alley opposite. He said to the person beside him, “We’ll go over and mediate when they get into a conflict later. It’ll be much easier to buy their shop then.”
“Is it useful?” The person beside him looked like a servant. He was still a little worried.
Steward Zhou snorted. “Of course it’s useful. Who would be willing to pay a protection fee of 100 taels a month?”
“It’s a pity that we came a step later. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have had to give money to those local hooligans to help.”
Steward Zhou pursed his lips. “Perhaps in this way, we can lower the price.” After a pause, he asked, “When will Master come?”
“He should be here soon.”
Steward Zhou was a little anxious. “We have to get it done before Old Master comes.”
Coincidentally, the three people in the shop didn’t seem to have a good temper. They would definitely quarrel soon.
The atmosphere in the shop was indeed tense. Zheng Gang looked at the local hooligans and said, “I’ve never heard of anyone on this street paying protection fees, let alone 100 taels a month.”
“That’s right. In the past, you didn’t have to pay it. Now, you have to. What’s wrong? Are you going to give it to us? If you don’t, don’t blame us for being rude.”
“You…” Zheng Gang was furious.
“I’m not giving it to you. Why don’t we see how rude you are?” Gu Yundong retracted her gaze from Steward Zhou and glanced at the local hooligans.
A local hooligan immediately glanced at her, and then his eyes lit up. His gaze became unrestrained. “Yo, there’s a little girl here. She’s quite good-looking. Do you want to know how to be rude? Actually, it’s simple. Why don’t you come over and kiss me… Ah…”
Before he could finish speaking, the local hooligan felt a pain in his stomach. His entire body flew out like a kite with a broken string.
The sound of the landing rang out. Not only was the local hooligan stunned, but the other gangsters were also stunned. The smile on their faces was still hanging as they froze.
After a while, everyone turned around and looked at Shao Qingyuan, who had attacked. They swallowed hard.
Shao Qingyuan glanced at them coldly. “Who else wants to be rude?”
The local hooligans trembled and immediately took a few steps back.
Steward Zhou and the servant were even more stunned. Just, just like that, the man was sent flying?
“What, what should we do?” The servant was so nervous that his tongue was tied. “That person seems to know martial arts. Even if we go over together, we won’t be able to beat him. Those local hooligans won’t be able to do anything either. Why don’t we forget about that shop?”
Steward Zhou was also so frightened that he trembled. However, when he heard the servant’s words, he slapped him. “What nonsense are you talking about? That shop was chosen by Old Master. Can I just give it up? Looks like we have to rely on ourselves. You, quickly call Ah Feng over. He’s a guard of our residence. He’s very skilled. He can definitely deal with that man.”
The servant nodded and immediately stood up. Unexpectedly, before he could take a step, he stopped again and pointed at a carriage not far away. “There’s no need to go. Ah Feng accompanied Old Master over.”
Steward Zhou suddenly turned his head, and his expression instantly changed.
