Chapter 511 The situation is reversed?
"How is that possible?" Hu Xiner listened to the scolding outside, not only did she not feel annoyed at all, but she looked full of confidence.
Zhao Si thought she was unaware of the current situation and said angrily, "This isn't the capital. We don't have the support of the Princess's Mansion behind us! If my reputation as a dishonest businessman gets out, I'll have no place in Qingzhou anymore!"
He was now regretting it so much that his intestines were turning green: "I shouldn't have asked you to help me open the store. If I had known this would happen, I would have just run my own small business honestly!"
"Your previous pirated comics are also called your duty?" Hu Xiner raised her eyebrows.
"You know shit!" Zhao Si looked at the shop in front of him. This was a prosperous shop that he had rented after spending countless efforts and thoughts. He planned to make a lot of money in one go.
He pointed at the wall, feeling grief-stricken. "Look at the furnishings around here. Everything was made according to your specifications. I obeyed you in every way. I built the printing press and worked overtime to get the new book printed. But what about you? How did you repay me?!"
As he said this, he didn't know where he got the strength from, but he stood up by holding the door, looking at Hu Xiner with a very fierce look.
Hu Xin'er's heart skipped a beat when he looked at her, fearing that he would do something stupid. "Hey, don't be so anxious, I still have something to say."
"What else is there to say?!" Zhao Si roared, his eyes red, and he looked like a beast cornered.
"Actually..." Hu Xiner felt a little sorry for him when she saw him like this. She had actually made all the plans a long time ago, but she just didn't tell Zhao Si in advance.
But no one expected that just a short while would cause such a huge blow to Zhao Si.
Before she could speak, Zhao Si interrupted her.
He laughed bitterly and said, "Are you trying to tell me that a man who wants to make a comeback still has a chance? Pah, people like you who were born into wealth, how can you understand the hardships we go through to make money?"
"That's not what I meant." Hu Xiner hurriedly explained, but at this time Zhao Si could no longer listen to anyone.
The insults from outside poured in like a flood, constantly drilling into his ears. He finally couldn't hold back his sobs, occasionally letting out a few desperate roars: "Do you know how difficult it is for someone to start from scratch? Yes, I am a profiteer, selling shoddy comics, but that money was also earned by my own hard work, going from street to street!"
He suddenly raised his head. "But now they're all ruined by you! Originally, there was still a chance that my thousand comics would sell, but after what happened today, who would buy my comics again?"
Hu Xin'er's expression changed from regret and anxiety to calmness and helplessness: "Are you done?"
Zhao Si roared, "No! I'm telling you, don't think you can get out of this. Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. I have 100 ways to make you lose your reputation and die without a burial place!"
Hu Xin'er chuckled and said, "Since you don't have any, then just talk slowly and carefully. We can talk about turning the comic book shop around next time!"
"What do you mean?" Zhao Si was about to curse, but he took it back.
His eyes suddenly lit up with surprise, and he trotted over to Hu Xin'er. "Do you have a plan? Yes, your attitude was off from the start, as if you'd anticipated this situation. You planned all this yourself, didn't you?"
"Does it matter? Anyway, what you want to do now is to vent your emotions." Hu Xin'er patted his head. "Come on, tell me how many ways you have to make me die without a burial place?"
Zhao Si thought, this woman is beautiful, but how feasible are her ideas? He had previously chosen her based entirely on his intuition, but now he regretted it deeply.
However, at this time, we can only try our best to save the situation.
He smiled eagerly and flatteringly at Hu Xin'er, "Good sister, I'm just a child and don't know much. Everything I said just now was just angry words and jokes. Can you please forgive me?"
"Does it matter whether I forgive you or not?" Hu Xin'er glanced at him. "Some people, when they need you, they call you 'sister' and when they don't, they start cursing. They really have two faces."
"Sister~" Zhao Si dragged out the last word and pestered her for advice.
Those people outside who were throwing rotten vegetable leaves were getting tired, and the sound of the leaves hitting the door gradually became quieter.
Hu Xiner took out the oil-paper umbrella that she had prepared long ago and pushed open the door.
"Crackle!" Vegetable leaves fell on her oil-paper umbrella one after another. The oil-paper umbrella, which was originally printed with flowers, suddenly became dirty and accompanied by a faint stench.
The crowd gradually became restless.
What everyone saw was that it was just a woman who was pregnant. She stopped throwing the vegetable leaves for a moment.
Someone yelled at Zhao Si, "Zhao Si, you actually let a pregnant woman come out to block the knife for you, are you still a man?"
Everyone immediately hated the shameless Zhao Si even more.
Someone even said to Hu Xin'er, "Madam, please stop aiding and abetting the evil. Do you have any leverage over Zhao Si? Tell us and we'll all help you! Right, everyone?"
Hu Xin'er pulled out a simple loudspeaker from behind her and shouted, "Everyone, please listen to me!"
At the same time, several servants appeared and quickly moved things out of the shop.
Everyone was discussing: "What is this going to do?"
"I don't know. What is that thing in that girl's hand? Could it be a hidden weapon?"
"Zhao Si wouldn't be so crazy as to use hidden weapons against us, right?"
The crowd all took a step back, feeling surprised, unfamiliar and frightened by the new object in Hu Xiner's hand.
Hu Xin'er ignored everyone's questions and interruptions, and instead shouted, "Everyone, I'm the new owner of Muxin Comics Shop, and I'm also Zhao Si's sister. He was ignorant and made many mistakes in the past. I apologize to everyone here!"
Everyone was stunned. Where did Zhao Si get another sister from?
Someone shouted, "Don't try to scare me! This guy has never had a sister."
"Humph, Zhao Si is such a cunning brat! He's clearly trying to push a pregnant woman like you out to block the attack so he can escape. Don't listen to this woman!"
Seeing that the crowd that had just calmed down was about to return to chaos, Hu Xiner calmed down and launched the first major benefit of the day.
She shouted, "Fellow villagers, from today on, our Mu Xin Comics Shop will no longer sell inferior goods!"
