Everyone was shocked when they saw it.
One of the men had his head blown off by Xiang Yu with a single punch.
"Murder! Go report it to the authorities immediately!"
"Don't let him get away."
"How dare you come to Master Gao's grain store to commit violence and injure people? I think you're tired of living."
Xiang Yu: "Who said I was going to run away? Since I've come to sell grain in your grain shop, I had no intention of running away."
Xiang Yu picked up the two broken carrying poles from the ground and charged straight at them, swinging them with great force.
The shop assistants at the grain store were no match for Xiang Yu.
They were basically defeated in a single encounter.
A few seconds later.
All the men were lying on the ground.
Xiang Yu struck with extreme force.
He was relatively restrained in his actions today; otherwise, these people in front of him would have been dead.
On the battlefield, Xiang Yu led 800 soldiers from Jiangdong and fought his way in and out of Zhang Han's 600,000-strong army seven times.
Even when surrounded, Xiang Yu led a few dozen men to face Liu Bang's ambush from all sides and charged all the way to the riverbank.
This man, with his immense strength and unparalleled spirit, was not someone these men could handle.
Xiang Yu walked up to the shopkeeper and slid him up from the ground: "You have to take this grain today, whether you like it or not, or I'll burn this whole grain shop down."
Xiang Yu grabbed the shopkeeper by the hair and lifted him into the air.
"Hero, spare me! Hero, spare me! I can't make the decision on this matter."
“I told you, this grain store is run by the county magistrate. I have no right to make decisions.”
"You ungrateful bastard! Since you can't be in charge or make decisions, what use are you?"
Xiang Yu picked up the shopkeeper, intending to throw him to the ground.
"Hero, spare my life! Hero, spare my life! If you spare my life, I'll take it right now!"
Xiang Yu then threw the shopkeeper to the ground.
"My lord's idea is that one pound of grain costs one tael of silver, and beef and mutton cost two taels of silver per pound."
"Hero, your grain is too expensive!" Before the shopkeeper could finish speaking, Xiang Yu slapped him hard across the face, knocking him unconscious.
He glanced at the shopkeeper's gesture, and the waiter next to him woke the shopkeeper up.
The waiter next to him poured half a bucket of cold water over the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper screamed and woke up.
"Sure, sure, I'll take your price." The shopkeeper covered his face and spat out a dozen teeth.
"That was the price my lord set earlier, but you bastard's performance didn't satisfy me. So the price will have to be doubled."
The shopkeeper's eyes widened: "Good sir, how can you raise prices like this?"
"Then double it again."
As soon as Xiang Yu finished speaking, the shopkeeper nodded repeatedly.
The shopkeeper knew that if he didn't agree, Xiang Yu would have to raise the price.
He really won't be able to handle it by then.
"Alright, alright, I'll exchange the silver for you right now. We'll buy the beef and mutton at four taels of silver per catty, or eight taels of silver per catty."
The shopkeeper also knew that a true man can bend and stretch.
A moment of patience brings calm, a step back opens up a vast expanse.
It's not too late to deal with Xiang Yu later, once all the county officials have arrived.
"Stop dawdling and hurry up," Xiang Yu urged impatiently.
"Good man, we need to weigh your grain. We need to know how many kilograms it is."
Xiang Yu clenched his fists so tightly they cracked: "My lord has ordered 1,800 catties of wheat flour, 2,000 catties of rice, and 500 catties of beef and mutton."
According to the price Xiang Yu quoted, the grain shop would have to pay tens of thousands of taels of silver.
"Good sir, our grain store really can't come up with that much money." The shopkeeper covered his face as soon as he finished speaking.
"Are you here to make fun of me?"
The shopkeeper quickly shook his head.
"Hero, please calm down. I'll think of a way right now."
Just then, a large crowd of onlookers gathered at the entrance.
Everyone knew that the largest grain stores in the town were all owned by the county magistrate, Gao Ming.
Since the famine began.
The prices of grain in these grain stores have been rising again and again.
Even if ordinary people were to sell everything they own, they still couldn't buy more than a few kilograms of rice.
Seeing Xiang Yu fighting in the grain store, many onlookers applauded and cheered.
"A hero should not let the shopkeeper and his employees of this grain store go."
"They are a bunch of blood-sucking bastards."
“These scoundrels are driving up grain prices. People have money but can’t buy grain, and many have starved to death.”
"A true hero should not let these people go."
Although Xiang Yu was a reckless man, he was also a person with a strong sense of justice.
When Xiang Yu heard what the onlookers said, and looked at them, he saw that they were all dressed in tattered clothes and were emaciated.
He immediately became furious.
"I don't have time to waste with you. Hand over the money first. I'll go to your county office later to settle accounts with your magistrate."
“In broad daylight, under the clear sky, a local official, instead of standing up for the people, ended up engaging in business dealings.”
What use are such corrupt officials if they aren't executed?
At that moment, Jiang Tian, who was shopping, suddenly heard a series of system notification sounds.
[Ding! Wang Huabao, the owner of Gaoji Grain Store, has +1212 rage points.]
[Ding, Wang Tianyou, the owner of Gaoji Grain Store, has increased his anger by 1112.]
