Wei Shufen was so frightened that she quickly found Lu Wanqing and told her to take out the money immediately.

Lu Wanqing felt very uncomfortable. Are people who borrow money so arrogant these days?

"Didn't I tell you? I need time to raise the money. If you can't wait, you can go find someone else!" Lu Wanqing said coldly.

Wei Shufen was so anxious that she stamped her feet:

"Oh dear, you're so rich, this little bit of money is nothing to you, Master Li said that if you don't give me the money, my whole family will suffer."

Do you want to see the Han family suffer?

Wow, you've learned how to use moral blackmail?

If the Han family is going to fall into misfortune, it's all her doing. Her money didn't grow on trees, so why should she clean up her mess?

Wait a minute~

What Master Li Xian?

How did this person suddenly appear?

"Auntie, what kind of people do you usually associate with? All those so-called masters are frauds, how can you still believe what they say!" Lu Wanqing glared at her.

On second thought, most of these extortion cases are committed by acquaintances, and the perpetrator might be someone Wei Shufen knows, so this "master" is also a suspect.

Just as Wei Shufen looked distressed, Lu Wanqing's expression softened a little, and she asked her to talk about who she had been in contact with recently.

She usually plays cards, buys clothes, and occasionally meets with Master Li Xian, Yao Na, and Li Qin.

He's good for nothing but causing trouble.

Why not just stay home and play cards? Why do you have to provoke these people?

She still has to check them one by one.

With only four days left, she couldn't possibly investigate each case one by one.

Fortunately, A Biao and Li Qin were relatives, so A Biao took care of Li Qin's situation.

If it can be proven that she and Yao Na have no prior relationship, then she can be ruled out.

As for Li Xian, after her investigation, she found this person to be quite interesting.

Most of the wealthy women in the circle have gone to see him.

He lived in an old-fashioned red brick bungalow outside the Third Ring Road.

Logically speaking, wealthy ladies should disdain such places, but who knew that they needed to meet people and even had to be introduced by acquaintances.

I went there myself, but they wouldn't see me at all.

However, according to people who have consulted him, he is incredibly accurate at fortune telling. All you need to do is give him your name, and he can tell you exactly how many people are in your family and what they do for a living.

Therefore, his fame grew, and he never had to worry about not having people seeking his fortune-telling.

Lu Wanqing waited outside his house, hoping a wealthy woman would come out happily, so she deliberately bumped into her.

"I'm so sorry," Lu Wanqing apologized hastily.

The woman was in a good mood and didn't argue with her, turning to leave.

Lu Wanqing wouldn't miss the chance to strike up a conversation. Seeing that the clothes she was wearing were of good quality, she quickly showered her with compliments.

The woman felt flattered by the compliment on her beauty and let her guard down, chatting with her casually.

"Someone in my family is seriously ill, and we'd like to have Master Li Xian do a divination. I wonder if you could help us make an introduction?" Lu Wanqing said, seeing that the time was right.

To everyone's surprise, the man waved his hands repeatedly and said in a flustered manner, "I can't help you with this. If you really want someone to introduce you, you can only go to the tailor shop."

After asking her in detail, she learned that these people were all introduced by the tailor shop staff.

Moreover, you won't be able to see them immediately; you'll need to wait in line, and we'll notify you when you can see them.

Upon hearing this, Lu Wanqing was already laughing so hard she was doubled over.

These people are so easily fooled. What kind of masters are they? They're just charlatans.

The clothes that woman was wearing were probably bought from a tailor shop.

When she bought it, the people in the shop probably got information about her family, so when she came, the master's predictions were always accurate.

However, his efficiency is a bit slow, so he can't schedule too many people a day.

If we were to live in a later era, a master like him could see a hundred or so people a day.

It's like making people wait outside, surrounded by cameras and microphones, so everything they say can be collected.

Once the staff has collected and organized the materials, they can hand them over to the master and then call the person in.

As soon as the person who went in heard the master speak, he described his family and affairs in great detail and happily took out several hundred yuan.

Isn't it possible that all this information was tricked out of me while I was queuing?

To verify this, she went to the tailor shop.

Her excuse was naturally to help Wei Shufen get her clothes.

Wei Shufen often had her clothes made at this store, and the staff didn't think much of it and just gave her the clothes.

"It used to be her nanny who came to pick it up, why is it you today?" someone asked.

Lu Wanqing made up a random excuse to get by.

Then someone asked, "How's Aunt Wei doing lately? I heard her son's wedding is going to fall through?"

Well, just as she expected, this staff member was not just a simple salesperson; he was a complete busybody.

"What I do is none of your business how she is doing," Lu Wanqing said dismissively, then grabbed her clothes and left.

The man's face darkened, and he shouted from behind her:

"What are you so arrogant about? You'll get your turn to be in trouble!"

Lu Wanqing was too lazy to argue with her. Looking at the name on her name tag, which read Li Xia, she realized she was also a member of the Li family, and her suspicions were basically confirmed.

However, this only proves that the person who told Wei Shufen's fortune was a fraud. What does that have to do with extortion?

She came out of the tailor shop, and her own clothing store was not far around the corner.

She was about to go inside to rest when Lin Chunhua saw her, and was both surprised and delighted, hurriedly saying:

"Where have you been? People from the factory were looking for you everywhere. They said someone was causing trouble at the factory gate!"

There was a bicycle at the gate. After hearing this, Lu Wanqing got on the bike and sped towards the factory.

She rode her bike while thinking about all sorts of possibilities.

After more than a month of reorganization, the factory's employees have been largely appeased. Even if a few have objections, they won't cause any major problems.

The problem can only lie with sole proprietors.

Currently, some of the factory's goods are directly supplied to its own wholesale stores, some to long-term cooperating state-owned stores and supply and marketing cooperatives, and some to individual consumers.

In fact, these individual investors are numerous and highly mobile, and they don't bring much profit to the factory, but they require a lot of energy. She had wanted to cancel them for a long time.

Because of the time constraints, she hasn't had time to find a practical solution yet.

When she arrived at the North Gate, just as she expected, the troublemakers were the individual business owners.

They were all carrying black bags, which were specifically used for purchasing goods.

Each bag contains dozens of pieces of clothing, and I only bring in a hundred or eighty pieces at a time. I take them back to sell at retail, and I restock every two or three days.

Because the goods in the factory were one or two yuan cheaper than the wholesale prices outside, even though they knew that the wholesale stores had the goods, they still squeezed into the factory to get the goods.

She understands these people's desire to reduce costs, but she won't tolerate them causing trouble because of it!
