Next door was a noodle shop. The noodle shop owner stared wide-eyed at Jiang Xue. This woman was too fierce!
"Haven't you already been scammed? If you still go through with the renovations, you'll lose a huge amount of money!"
Jiang Xue shook her head. "It's okay. Since there's no landlord here, I'll just do the renovations."
"Brother, have you ever met the landlord here?"
Although Gu Xiaoling had already asked this question that morning, Jiang Xue still wanted to ask it again herself.
I don't believe that a major landlord has never shown up over the years.
The noodle shop owner looked flustered and immediately said, "I've never seen it before, I've never seen it before. You guys go about your business, I have other things to do. We don't have any of those things you're talking about."
The noodle shop owner has been selling noodles here for five or six years, how could he not know the owner of this shop?
Jiang Xue could tell from his flustered expression that there was definitely something fishy going on.
Jiang Xue looked down at the street and saw a hardware store not far away. "Xiao Ling, go buy a hammer. Go find your brother to come and smash the wall later."
Jiang Xue was too exhausted to run anymore; her legs were weak and her stomach was also very upset.
Gu Xiaoling immediately went to the hardware store to buy a hammer.
Jiang Xue took the hammer and knocked the shop door open in a few quick movements.
"Then you wait here for me, I'll go call my brother, he'll be here soon."
After Gu Xiaoling left, Jiang Xue realized that not a single grain of rice had gone into her stomach.
She sat down at the noodle shop next door and said, "Give me a bowl of clear soup noodles."
The noodle shop owner respectfully served a bowl of noodles, then quickly moved away as if trying to avoid it.
It wasn't mealtime yet, and Jiang Xue noticed there were no customers in the restaurant.
"The boss should be back soon, right?" Jiang Xue asked tentatively.
The noodle shop owner pretended not to hear and busied himself with his work, carefully selecting the vegetables.
"You're so afraid to speak up because you're afraid of getting beaten up if you talk too much, right?" Jiang Xue couldn't understand why they would do something so immoral when it would be better to just rent out the store.
However, Jiang Xue was full after only a couple of bites and felt very uncomfortable in her stomach, so she put down her chopsticks and turned her back to the noodle shop owner to talk about her business.
"Actually, this is quite good. One person can scam a thousand, and ten people can scam ten thousand. That's much more cost-effective than renting a house. It would take several years to earn ten thousand in rent, but this way you can earn that much in just one or two months."
Jiang Xue did the math and realized that this boss was indeed a smart man.
"It's alright. The less you dare to speak, the more confident I am."
Jiang Xue put down her chopsticks and bowl, and before long, Gu Xiaohei arrived with several of his brothers.
Jiang Xue was always very perceptive. When he saw Gu Xiaohei with his head drooping, he knew that Ji Chen must have been unhappy when he got back and had thrown a tantrum again.
"Does your boss know?"
"I know, the boss has some things to take care of, so he told us to come over first. He'll be here in a bit." Gu Xiaohei was telling the truth.
Of course, I also hope that the two of them can reconcile and go back to normal, otherwise I'll suffer, but they...
Jiang Xue roughly understood the situation and crossed her arms, saying, "Smash that wall for me. This side is all pillars, and that wall isn't load-bearing. Smash it."
Jiang Xue was determined to smash the shop to pieces, to destroy it beyond recognition; cunning wouldn't work on her.
Since he claims to be the landlord and has the keys to the property, even if he was the previous tenant, he still has a landlord.
This is strangely funny.
