Chapter 83: A little bit of wind and frost
After Butler Xue and He Yue left, Ye Shuyi went to see Hong Shiqiong make herbal tea.
The stall opens at two o'clock.
Just like yesterday, a long line of people lined up for consultation, and a lot of tea was sold, almost as much as milk tea and desserts.
Ye Shuyi helped out. Hong Shiqiong had already taught her the steps of making tea. She just had to mix it according to the proportions instructed.
Everyone who buys herbal tea will be given two candied dates.
A large fan blew towards them, and sweat continued to flow.
Just as we were busy, Wang Chunhua came over.
"Sister Wang, what's going on?"
"Ms. Ye, someone in the store wants to see you to discuss cooperation."
After hearing this, Ye Shuyi said hello to Hong Shiqiong and followed.
The man who came was wearing a light blue hooded overalls and retro jeans, with a tired look in his eyes.
"Sir, are you looking for me?" Ye Shuyi pulled out a chair and sat down.
"Yes. I saw that you opened a herbal tea stall downstairs, boss, and business is pretty good." He clasped his hands together and placed them on the wooden table in front of him.
"Well. I heard from Sister Wang that if you want to discuss cooperation, you should be straightforward." She didn't want to waste time.
"The raw materials of herbal tea, Chinese medicine, are not cheap. There is also a free Chinese medicine clinic next to the stall, and wages are also required. The costs are not small, and the selling price is not high, so you can't make much money. I now have a way to make you more money. Do you want to know?" He threw out the bait.
After hearing this, Ye Shuyi had some guesses in her mind, but she still asked, "Tell me?"
"My family runs a drugstore. Both western medicine and herbal tea can cure minor illnesses. The former is far less troublesome than the latter and works faster. If you add ibuprofen to the herbal tea, it can still cure headaches, but the cost will be lower and you don't have to spend too much time diagnosing the symptoms. How about it?" This was the guide to wealth that he brought to Ye Shuyi.
This practice is not new.
Many stores claiming to be century-old brands have been found to have adulterated their products with Western medicine.
Ye Shuyi didn't answer, but just looked at him with a smile.
The man wasn't sure what this meant, so he assumed the other party wasn't sure yet, so he continued his sales pitch: "Our pharmacy is quite famous in Hong Kong Island. It's in Causeway Bay, and we have partnerships with many herbal tea shops and Chinese medicine shops. Don't worry."
"What's the name of your store?" Ye Shuyi asked suddenly.
"This..." He didn't say it immediately because the other party didn't agree.
"I'll just see if it's reliable. If it is, I'll consider it." Ye Shuyi smiled harmlessly.
"Okay, I'll tell you, it's called Conscience Pharmacy. You can go over there and ask and you'll see it." The other person's expression made him relax his guard.
"Well, how many herbal tea shops do you cooperate with?"
"About a dozen or so. How about this? Do you want to adopt my plan? Since your store is so big and you're so pretty, I can give you a 30% discount."
That sounds like a great bait.
However, Ye Shuyi refused to accept this. She sarcastically said, "Your store is called a conscientious pharmacy! I wonder if your conscience has been fed to the dogs? Traditional Chinese medicine treats illnesses before they occur and has few side effects. Yet you intend to use medicine for existing illnesses instead of medicine for those who haven't yet, and profit from it. Isn't this deceiving consumers?"
The man's face flushed red. He held onto his teacup and tried to defend himself weakly, "I'm just trying to make a living. Life is so hard these days, and you have to be flexible..."
"This is not a compromise, it's a desperate risk that will only lead to more harm than good. How many people's health will be harmed by your actions? It's time to mend your ways and go to the police station to admit your mistake. Maybe with a good attitude you can get a lighter penalty." Ye Shuyi persuaded.
Obviously it didn't work.
"I get it, you're just trying to trick me. Fuck your mother!" The man stood up, so angry that he wanted to hit someone, and punched him.
Ye Shuyi dodged nimbly and kicked the man in the stomach.
The man's body flew up and hit the concrete wall behind him with a "bang", then fell down again.
There was more surprise than pain.
His eyes widened in disbelief.
How could this woman be so strong!
I must have been too careless just now.
He weakly climbed to his feet, intending to attack again.
Ye Shuyi walked over slowly, as relaxed as if strolling in the garden.
Before the man could get up, Ye Shuyi raised her foot again and stepped on him to the ground.
It seems easy, but in fact it makes people unable to move.
"Get out of here! Fight me if you dare!" he continued shouting.
"You can't move under my feet, and you're still making a noise." Ye Shuyi sneered, and then actually raised her foot.
The man thought he was saved, and just as he was about to move, he was stepped on again.
Completely accept your fate.
"You..." I was very angry, but forget it, I didn't have the energy to speak.
When he gets out, he will definitely take revenge on her.
Ye Shuyi picked him up like a little chicken and slapped him a few times.
His face was swollen like a pig's head.
After venting her anger, Ye Shuyi rushed out crying again.
man:? ? ?
Why is this woman crying? She should be crying because she is hurt!
"Wow, wow, wow..." Ye Shuyi looked frightened, crying with tears on her face.
She had applied it with clean water.
Everyone had never seen Ye Shuyi like this, and they all asked her what had happened.
Employees and guests gathered around.
Wang Chunhua also patted her on the back: "Miss Ye, what's wrong? Who bullied you?"
"Didn't we just discuss cooperation with Mr. Su? Could it be..." At this point, Wang Chunhua suddenly thought of a possibility.
"Did he bully you?"
Ye Shuyi nodded and said aggrievedly, "He just tried to molest me!"
“Oh my God!”
How can this be?
Wang Chunhua immediately picked up the broom and said sternly, "Don't be afraid! Sister Wang will protect you. How did he molest you?"
"As soon as I entered, he looked at me with lustful eyes. The business he was talking about was actually asking me to mix western medicine pills into herbal tea and make a profit from it. I disagreed and advised him to change his ways, but he got angry and beat me! He pulled my clothes and molested me! I was scared to death and struggled for a long time before I ran away." She described it vividly and convincingly.
Everyone was listening and their anger suddenly rose.
You pervert, you deserve a beating!
All of a sudden, the employees all took tools, some with mops, some with garbage shovels, some with fire pokers, some with roller shutter hooks, and some even brought up benches.
Anyone who dares to touch their boss is courting death.
Some guests who were brave enough to do good also joined in.
A group of people rushed up the stairs so aggressively that even the stairs were shaking.
When I arrived at the private room, I saw a man with a bruised face and nose leaning against the wall, catching his breath and resting. His clothes were covered with footprints and were torn.
When he saw so many people coming up, he was so scared that his body was shaking.
"What are you doing? You should follow the law and not act recklessly!" he said in panic.
It was as if he was not the one who attacked the woman first.
It seems that he is not the one who disregards the law and harms others.
Only when you are in a weak position will you emphasize fairness and order more.
The people who came were also confused.
Didn’t they say that the man beat Ye Shuyi?
Now it seems like the opposite.
The employees all looked at the boss. The boss just had a few tears on his face and looked a little sad.
The clothes are still in good condition.
It's just a little bit of wind and frost, and the corners of the clothes are slightly dirty.
