When he saw Li Shujie sitting in the shop, a gleam in his eyes flashed, then quickly looked away. He looked at Wanfu beside him as if nothing had happened, and smiled even more enthusiastically.
This person is Zhang Hao’s father, the owner of Jinbaoxuan, Zhang Tieyun.
Zhang Tieyun took two quick steps forward and shook hands with Wanfu who was coming towards him.
"Brother Zhang, what brings you here? Come, come, sit down." Wanfu greeted and invited Zhang Tieyun to sit down at the table.
When Li Shujie saw Zhang Tieyun coming over, he stood up from his chair reflexively and subconsciously stepped aside, just like when he was still working at Jinbaoxuan.
This is a habit accumulated over the years and cannot be changed in a short time.
"I heard that you were moving to Gui City and wanted to sell your shop, so I came to take a look and bought your shop by the way, so that you can leave with peace of mind."
Zhang Tieyun directly stated the purpose of his visit. It didn't seem like he was going to buy a shop, but more like he was going to give alms.
Although there are many shops in the antique street, Jinbaoxuan is the most luxurious, largest and most powerful one among them. Naturally, it has a sense of superiority and speaks in an arrogant manner, with an attitude of a leader.
Wanfu has long been accustomed to Zhang Tieyun's rampant attitude.
The moment Zhang Tieyun appeared, Wanfu had already guessed the purpose of Zhang Tieyun's visit.
To be honest, he really didn't want to sell the shop to Zhang Tieyun.
He glanced at Li Shujie cautiously, then said to Zhang Tieyun in embarrassment, "Brother Zhang, I'm so sorry, but I already have a buyer for this shop."
"Who?" Zhang Tieyun raised his eyebrows and glared at Li Shujie standing beside him. "Could it be Shujie? Hahaha... He can't afford so much money."
Li Shujie was suddenly called by Zhang Tieyun. His palms were sweating with nervousness. He didn't even dare to look in Zhang Tieyun's direction, let alone stand up and speak.
Seeing how scared Li Shujie was of Zhang Tieyun, Wanfu shook his head helplessly and spoke up to defend Li Shujie, saying, "It's Shujie's new boss who wants to buy my shop, and I've already agreed."
As he spoke, he picked up the paper on the table and said, "Look, we are about to sign the contract!"
Zhang Tieyun glanced at the contract gloomily and repeated in a low voice: "New owner?"
His ferocious eyes swept from Wanfu's face to Li Shujie's. Suddenly, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he laughed sarcastically: "Shujie, you're really popular! You just left our Jinbaoxuan and you immediately found a new employer. If someone didn't know, they would think you were a traitor!"
This means that when Li Shujie was working at Jinbaoxuan, he had already started looking for his next employer.
If it were someone else, it wouldn't matter if they were told that.
But when Li Shujie couldn't find a job, Zhang Tieyun gave Li Shujie a job and helped Li Shujie get promoted all the way until he eventually became the store manager of Jinbaoxuan. It can be said that Zhang Tieyun was very kind to Li Shujie.
Then Li Shujie's behavior would be seen as ungrateful in the eyes of outsiders.
"I didn't." Li Shujie retorted.
"Why not? Didn't you find a new employer right after leaving Jinbaoxuan?"
“…”
Wanfu saw that Li Shujie was speechless after being criticized by Zhang Tieyun. He was obviously aggrieved but couldn't say anything. He felt really unfair for Li Shujie.
He pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Zhang, this isn't Shujie's fault. If your son hadn't expelled Shujie and had him beaten up, he wouldn't have been snatched away by someone else!"
