Chapter 421
The man in the gray shirt looked so panicked that he was at a loss. He said to the other five accomplices, "Hurry, get Grandpa to the hospital first. If we go too late, Grandpa's leg will be gone!"
When the other five accomplices heard what the man in the gray shirt said, they all rushed to help the old man. They worked together to carry the old man out and hurried to send him to the hospital.
The man in the gray shirt followed behind. As he was about to leave the house, he seemed to remember the group of tenants and turned to warn them who were standing there in a daze, "The situation is urgent today. I'm going to take my grandfather to the hospital first. I'll come back to you tomorrow and ask you to pay for my grandfather's medical expenses and living expenses. Don't even think about running away, and don't even think about refusing to pay! I have many subordinates under my command. If you run away, even if you run to the farthest corners of the world, I will find you one by one!"
After saying that, the man in the gray shirt left.
The tenants were all stunned, unable to understand how they had gotten into this situation. They looked at each other, their eyes filled with complex thoughts.
Their attention was drawn to this incident, and they didn't notice that Ye Fuyue had disappeared long ago.
The next day at noon, when Ye Fuyue leisurely strolled into the shop, it was already empty. Not only had all the tenants disappeared, but even their daily necessities had almost been moved away.
The man in the gray shirt and the old man walked in, and the four people from yesterday followed in.
The old man walked steadily and his legs were nimble, and there was no sign that his legs were broken at all.
"Comrade Ye, the tenants all moved out last night," the man in the gray shirt said to Ye Fuyue in a flattering tone. "My brothers and I were watching this place last night. The tenants moved out overnight, fearing I'd actually come to their door with my brothers to demand payment today. Your idea is brilliant."
The old man also agreed in a flattering way: "Yes, I acted exactly like it yesterday."
Ye Fuyue smiled at them and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
She took some money out of her pocket and handed it to the man in the gray shirt: "This is what we agreed on before."
The man in the gray shirt took the money with a smile, counted it, and made sure the amount was correct. He smiled flatteringly at Ye Fuyue, "Thank you, Comrade Ye. If those tenants come back again, just ask Brother Yao to find me and I'll drive them out for you!"
"Okay." Ye Fuyue nodded with a smile.
The man in the gray shirt waved at her and left with the five people.
The man in the gray shirt was someone she had Shen Yao find. And the five people were someone the man in the gray shirt found. As for whether the old man was really the man in the gray shirt's grandfather, Ye Fuyue didn't know and hadn't asked.
Her cooperation with the man in the gray shirt was simple: she needed him to find someone to help her evict all the tenants and prevent them from returning. Ideally, he could find a few young men and a few elderly people to blackmail the tenants.
The man in the gray shirt was usually a gangster. He quickly understood Ye Fuyue's meaning and found these five people to act out the scene from yesterday with him. Sure enough, the group of tenants were scared and moved out overnight.
Ye Fuyue looked around the empty shop and smiled with satisfaction.
Now she can plan her shop well.
Ye Fuyue also told Zhong Lan and Cui Li about her purchase of the shop.
Cui Li said in surprise, "You mean, we don't have to hawk our wares on the street anymore, we'll have a shop?"
"Yes." Ye Fuyue nodded with a smile. "From now on, you won't have to work so hard carrying a basket of buns and peanut butter everywhere. However, after you open a shop, you will have other hardships."
"Other hardships?" Zhong Lan asked doubtfully.
"My initial consideration is that with a shop, we will be able to sell more types of buns and drinks. With so many varieties, you will definitely have to get up early in the morning to prepare, which may not be much easier than selling buns on a bicycle." Ye Fuyue said.
"That's no problem." Zhong Lan said, "If you want to make money, there's no easy way."
Cui Li nodded in agreement.
Ye Fuyue continued with a smile, "Our shop probably won't open until June or July. During this time, we can decide on the types of buns and drinks we want to sell."
"Also, there are three rooms behind the shop. If the shop becomes successful, I plan to let you move in there. That way, even if you have to get up early to prepare for the store, you can still take care of the children."
"No problem." Zhong Lan and Cui Li had no objection.
For them, it doesn't matter where they live, as long as it is convenient for taking care of their children and does not affect their income.
What Ye Fuyue provided them was undoubtedly the best solution.
"When the time comes, we will still pay your rent as we do now," said Cui Li.
"Okay." Ye Fuyue nodded: "The rent will be the same as before."
Ye Fuyue, Zhong Lan and Cui Li chatted for a while about the recent sales of buns and peanut cheese, and then went back.
Before leaving, she told Zhong Lan and Cui Li as usual: "Remember to lock the doors and windows at night."
"Okay~" Zhong Lan and Cui Li responded with a smile.
Yao Zao'er, Lai Bao, and Huan Di all said to Ye Fuyue in childish voices, "Aunt Fuyue, be careful on the road."
"Okay~" Ye Fuyue's heart melted a little, and she showed them a bright smile.
After Ye Fuyue left, Zhong Lan and Cui Li were busy preparing dinner.
Cui Li suddenly sighed, "Two years ago, I never imagined I would be living the life I have now, earning my own living to support myself and my two children, and even having a small savings."
She continued, "My family treated me badly. They thought I was a girl and would eventually marry someone else. Before I got married, I did a lot of the housework, but I was always the one who ate the least. When I reached marriageable age, my parents only wanted to sell me for a good price to save money for my brothers to get wives."
"After marrying into the Liang family, I knew what kind of people they were. I only thought about how to make my life better in the Liang family. I never thought that if I got divorced and didn't rely on any man or my in-laws, I could live a better life."
Zhong Lan smiled and said, "I'm the same way. I never thought I could not only support myself but also my children."
"Fu Yue is really our benefactor. If she hadn't taken us to sell buns and peanut butter, we might still be enduring in the slum now." Cui Li said with a smile.
"Yeah." Zhong Lan also laughed.
After dinner, the two played with the children for a while, prepared the buns and peanut butter to be sold tomorrow, and then went to bed.
Before going to bed, both of them checked the house inside and out and made sure that the doors and windows were locked before they felt at ease.
Selling buns during the day is not easy, and they both fell asleep soon after.
