Chapter 67 There's nothing we can do about it; it's just bad luck!



Looking at Zhou Ling and Zhao Kun, he turned back with a face full of resentment.

Li Kaile laughed; the police were the most effective.

In his view, when it comes to doing business, competition should be fair, and there should be no unnecessary shady dealings.

If you can't sell your products as well as others, instead of looking for the reasons within yourself, you blame others. That's really shameless.

Li Kaile put down the loudspeaker and continued playing the stinky tofu promotional slogan. He apologized to the customers in front of the stall, saying that he would give each person an extra piece of stinky tofu as an apology for the delay.

Upon hearing this, the guests all showed delight.

Actually, they realized that the two men who had just arrived were looking for trouble because they saw the stall was popular, but they didn't dare to come over for fear of the police.

This made all the customers waiting there remember one thing: if you want to buy stinky tofu, you have to buy it here, don't go to that couple's stall, those two are obviously not good people.

On the other end,

Back at their stall, Zhou Ling and Zhao Kun were seething with anger.

Zhao Kun made a harsh statement, planning to settle accounts with Li Kaile after he closed up shop in a secluded place.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ling quickly stopped him, "Brother Kun, don't do anything rash. Even if it's not for your own sake, think about the son in my belly."

"Okay, I'll do as you say, I won't resort to violence." Seeing Zhou Ling's worried expression, Zhao Kun compromised and abandoned the idea of ​​solving the problem with violence.

However, with Li Kailu as a strong competitor, their stinky tofu stall sold far less than before.

I had only earned forty-odd yuan by eight o'clock.

Li Kaile's daily earnings, however, were much better.

He actually sold out of all the stinky tofu, and after checking the money in his pocket, he had nearly three hundred yuan.

Even after deducting the 70% bonus given to Zhou Chen, he would still receive 80 or 90% of the profits.

He earns eighty or ninety yuan a day, more than two thousand a month, which is much more than his mother earns.

Looking at the one-yuan bills in his hand, Li Kaile happily shed tears. At that moment, he felt that he could finally do something for his mother.

He had no talent in his studies and often disappointed his mother, but from now on, he could be his mother's pride because he could earn money.

He could even support his mother through the stinky tofu business and become the pillar of the family.

"Brother Chen, thank you, thank you for being willing to help me with business."

The person Li Kaile is most grateful to is Zhou Chen. If it weren't for Zhou Chen's willingness to guide him and pay for his stall, cart, and raw materials, he would never have earned so much money.

Zhou Chen was his benefactor.

Li Kaile secretly vowed that from now on, Zhou Chen would be his biological older brother, a brother from different fathers and mothers.

The next day, when Zhou Chen arrived at class and heard that Li Kaile had earned nearly three hundred yuan the day before, he was genuinely surprised.

This sales figure is comparable to the money Xu Dalong earns; the train station is truly a prime location with a good flow of passengers.

Li Kaile recounted everything about encountering Zhou Ling, including how he confronted her aggressive attitude by using a megaphone to speak to her.

Hearing that Zhou Ling and Zhao Kun were so frightened that they turned around and left, Zhou Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He could imagine how furious Zhou Ling and Zhao Kun must have been when their business was snatched away; they must have been livid, yet utterly helpless.

"You did a great job, keep up the good work tomorrow."

Zhou Chen didn't say much, but patted Li Kaile on the shoulder and offered a word of encouragement.

"Brother Chen, my mom said she'd like to invite you over for dinner to thank you for helping me with my business." Li Kaile scratched his head a little embarrassedly, unsure if Zhou Chen would be willing.

Last night, when he handed the money he had earned to his mother, she was stunned. She hadn't expected him to earn so much. Later, he explained his stinky tofu business. His mother said she respected his decision to do business. After asking why, she learned that his homeroom teacher, Wu Yingjie, had come and talked to him about his future.

If he can make a name for himself in business, then allow him to venture out on his own.

If he's not cut out for business, we'll send him to a technical school to learn a trade.

“Okay, I’ll go another day.” Zhou Chen readily agreed.

Li Kaile was delighted to hear this.

Without further ado, Zhou Chen went to training.

As he passed the area leading from the school gate to the playground, he slowed his pace slightly because he saw two familiar figures.

More accurately, it refers to the sisters Zhou Ling and Zhou Na.

It's unclear what the two were saying at the school gate.

But he quickly withdrew his fleeting glance, not lingering. He had no interest in what those two ingrates did or said, nor did he want to know.

"Second sister, do you know how ruthless my eldest brother is? He didn't teach me how to make stinky tofu, but instead hired others to sell it at my stall. He did it on purpose. I've been avoiding him, but he won't let it go. Second sister, you have to stand up for me. He's bullying me too much."

In front of Zhou Na, Zhou Ling complained with a face full of grievances, hoping to get help from Zhou Na.

She knew that going to Zhou Chen would be pointless; in comparison, Zhou Na could get some influence with Zhou Chen.

In the past, Zhou Chen had listened to some of Zhou Na's opinions.

But Zhou Ling didn't know that Zhou Na didn't want to get involved in this matter. Zhou Chen had blocked her phone number, which meant that she and Zhou Ling were now no different and her words carried no weight.

Going to Zhou Chen and asking him to apologize is complete nonsense.

Zhou Chen is like a different person now. He is no longer the hardworking, selfless, and always-helpful older brother who was always there for his three sisters.

Zhou Chen has changed.

They became selfish, indifferent, and heartless.

She had noticed this from the day Zhou Ling insisted on being with Zhao Kun, but she hadn't expected Zhou Chen to change so resolutely.

"If you want me to stand up for you and make him move to another place, I can't do it. He won't listen to me."

"Why don't you set up your stall somewhere else, or do some other business?"

Zhou Na said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ling bit her lip, realizing that Zhou Na was also out of options and had lost her standing with Zhou Chen. She was destined to leave disappointed today.

My mood was very low for a while.

Just as she was about to say goodbye, Zhou Ling suddenly noticed the school team running past her. To her surprise, she saw Zhou Chen in the team.

"Second sister, he..."

"You read that right, he's joined the school team and is now a sports student."

Zhou Na turned around, her gaze falling on the receding group, and said expressionlessly.

Zhou Chen became a sports student?

Zhou Ling was stunned for a moment.

How can someone who is already in their senior year of high school, long past the selection period for sports students, be allowed to join the school team?

Zhou Ling couldn't understand it and just thought Zhou Chen had gotten incredibly lucky.

...

Thank you to the brother who contributed his love and support. (Heart emoji)
