"You...you! You are rebelling!" Lu Jian was so angry that he was incoherent.
He was not a broad-minded person. The reason why he could be kind and servile in front of those powerful guests was simply because he could not afford to offend the real power behind them.
Because he also understood that although he could use the tiger's skin and wave the banner, once he really touched someone he shouldn't have touched, his few "connections" would not protect him at all, and would even cut off ties immediately.
But that's human nature. Being flattered by a few shop assistants, and with the customers, even if they were noble ladies, being concerned about their reputation and upbringing, they wouldn't make things difficult for a small shopkeeper. This made Shopkeeper Lu gradually forget himself and become arrogant.
In addition, during this period of time, seeing a group of rich people fighting over a bottle of food, Shopkeeper Lu developed an inexplicable sense of superiority. Looking at the ugly appearance of those people, he seemed to be able to stand apart from everyone else and completely forget that, after all, he was just a "branch shopkeeper" and the goods, or even the store itself, did not belong to him.
So now, a young girl who looked ordinary in clothes actually spoke so rudely to him. Shopkeeper Lu, who had not suffered such "injustice" for a long time, naturally could not stand it and could not help but shout: "Go, kick these two girls out!"
Shopkeeper Lu was shouting at the young man next to him.
He was called a "young" clerk simply because he looked younger than Shopkeeper Lu, who was in his thirties or forties.
But probably because they wanted to hire someone who was willing to work hard, this guy was actually quite strong, and although he was not very tall, he was still a strong young man.
The clerk was already very upset because he had subconsciously ignored the shopkeeper's words. Now that he saw the shopkeeper had given him an order, he naturally perked up and drove Su Qingluan and Yaoguang away in a rough voice.
From the moment Su Qingluan started to challenge Manager Lu, she had already quietly started to move slowly towards Yaoguang - she knew that she was just a newbie in terms of fighting power, and although she could make sarcastic remarks, she couldn't get herself involved.
Although she had not witnessed Yaoguang's skills directly, she believed in Mu Xingzhi's selection criteria - ordinary people would not be worthy of his attention.
So after taunting, seeing that the opponent was about to go berserk, Su Qingluan immediately dodged and returned to the safe zone - specifically behind Yaoguang.
So when the guy rushed towards the two of them, Su Qingluan retreated and avoided the opponent's frontal "attack". And at this time, Yaoguang moved - although only her legs moved.
Su Qingluan didn't even see how she kicked out. She only felt a light blue shadow flash by, and Yaoguang had already retracted her leg and put it down. The guy who was a little aggressive a moment ago had already flown out.
Fly... out...
What surprised Su Qingluan even more was that Yaoguang was sitting, which made it more difficult for her to exert force. But even so, she still sent the opponent flying at least three meters away.
After all, he is a big man weighing over 100 pounds!
Su Qingluan praised in her heart: Yaoguang, so awesome! And it was obvious from just this one kick that in terms of martial arts alone, Yaoguang was completely superior to Liu Yunniang.
For a moment, Su Qingluan thought of poaching, but this was obviously not realistic, so Su Qingluan wondered whether she should let Liu Yunniang find an opportunity to steal her skills or something.
Just as her thoughts were wandering, a loud noise brought Su Qingluan back to her senses. She turned her head and saw that Yaoguang had stood up from her chair, and Shopkeeper Lu... Shopkeeper Lu's head was stuck under the chair!
Moreover, because there were two low horizontal beams on the left and right sides of the chair, it was just enough for a person to lie down underneath without being able to move at all. Yaoguang's leg strength was evident from the fact that she kicked an adult away with one kick just now. So even if the shopkeeper struggled desperately, the chair was still firmly stuck to him, preventing him from breaking free.
At this time, the boy outside the door who was originally responsible for handing out signs and the person in charge of cleaning at the back probably heard the noise in the front hall, so one walked in from the backyard and the other knocked on the door desperately.
Su Qingluan was not worried about the old man sweeping the floor behind her - after all, he was trembling even when he walked, and when he saw the situation in the shop in front, he was so scared that he rolled and crawled away to hide. He posed no threat.
But the person knocking on the door outside needs to be dealt with.
So she first asked the guy who was kicked away by Yaoguang: "Do you have any hemp rope here?"
At this time, the clerk number one no longer had any pride and said with a sad face, "Auntie, the valuables in our store are all over there. Please do as you please, but don't hurt our shopkeeper..."
Su Qingluan sneered: "I'm here to deal with unscrupulous businessmen and clean up the house, why do I need money? If I really take the money, can I explain it clearly?" Of course, in fact, it is possible to explain it clearly. After all, in a sense, all the property in the store belongs to Su Qingluan. After all, even the Xie family is just a "distributor agent", and Su Qingluan is the real "owner".
Clerk No. 1 didn't pay attention to what the four words "clean up the house" meant in her words, but the shopkeeper had struggled for a while and now he was exhausted and quiet. When he heard Su Qingluan's words at this time, for some reason, a trace of uneasiness flashed through his heart.
Su Qingluan and Yaoguang worked together to tie Manager Lu to a chair and asked waiter No. 1 to open the door.
At this point, how could Buddy No. 1 dare to disobey? He quickly bolted the door with a bitter face.
As soon as the bolt was opened, the people outside rushed in. It was the waiter No. 2 who was in charge of handing out the cards, and the waiter No. 3 who was in charge of collecting money.
Neither of them was old and blind. When they saw the shopkeeper tied up, one of them immediately turned and ran: "Help, we've been robbed!"
Yaoguang looked at Su Qingluan: "Do you want to chase her?"
Su Qingluan shrugged. "I originally wanted to ask the officers and soldiers to come over and discuss how to deal with this matter. Although the methods are different, it is still considered as 'reporting to the authorities', right?"
Guy No. 1 was confused when he saw that these two men were not only not in a hurry at all, but were even talking calmly as if they were discussing "where to go for a walk today": Are robbers so arrogant nowadays?
Since someone had reported the matter to the authorities, and this happened right under the imperial city wall, naturally soldiers and officers would come to inquire.
Su Qingluan had seen soldiers patrolling the city on the streets, but the distance was quite far. When she got closer and compared them with each other, she still felt that the soldiers in her previous life were more handsome - after all, they all had physical examinations and screenings before joining the army.
The leader walked up to Su Qingluan and Yaoguang and shouted, "Someone has called the police. Is it true that you two committed a crime in someone else's shop?"
Su Qingluan acted very innocently: "Someone else's shop? This is obviously my own shop. I was in my own shop and was about to tie up the manager who was profiting from both sides and send him to the authorities. How come we are the ones committing the crime?" Su Qingluan pointed to her face, "We have the faces of good citizens!"
