Chapter 55: Competitors Emerge, Macburg



"Pah! I must have been out of my mind to hire you!"

The bald, middle-aged man being shoved by Manager Ma looked furious. He clenched his fists, seemingly wanting to punch Manager Ma, but ultimately held back.

"Heh, you're not convinced?"

"You're a loser. Take the money and get out of here before I lose my temper."

"If you piss me off, I'll make sure your wife loses her job, you believe me?"

"I'm leaving! I'm leaving!"

The bald middle-aged man's expression suddenly changed. He was about to take the 5 yuan from Manager Ma's hand, but unexpectedly, Manager Ma threw the 5 yuan on the ground.

The bald middle-aged man clenched his fists even tighter. He took a few deep breaths, but finally managed to hold back. He picked up the item from the ground and left without looking back.

"That's interesting."

Having witnessed the whole process, Lin Yifeng waited for Manager Ma to return to the courtyard before quietly following the bald middle-aged man.

...

"A dead end!"

Lin Yifeng caught up with the bald middle-aged man at a corner. The bald middle-aged man turned his head, and when he saw that it was Lin Yifeng chasing after him, his face instantly turned gloomy.

"What the hell are you doing chasing after me, you son of a bitch? I've already left Wallace with my men, and you're still coming after me? Are you looking for death?"

The bald middle-aged man resembled an angry old dog, not daring to bare his teeth at Manager Ma, but daring to grin at Lin Yifeng.

Lin Yifeng wasn't angry. He smiled, took out a 20-yuan note, and waved it: "The money that Manager Ma is unwilling to give you, I can give you."

"You just need to answer a few questions for me."

The bald middle-aged man fell silent for a moment. He looked at the money in Lin Yifeng's hand, then peered around the corner onto another street to see if anyone was around.

It was 2:30 pm. The villagers were either at work or in the fields, and the streets were deserted, not even a dog in sight.

Once he was sure Manager Ma wasn't behind him, the bald middle-aged man took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Ask away."

"Who is Manager Ma? Which factory does he work for? Why did he ask you to work with Wallace?"

The bald middle-aged man remained silent for a few seconds before slowly explaining the reason to Lin Yifeng.

"Manager Ma works at the meat processing plant, and the plant is planning to open a fried chicken and burger shop called McBurney."

Meat processing plant?

Fried chicken burgers?

Lin Yifeng narrowed his eyes slightly. He first handed twenty yuan to the bald middle-aged man. When the bald middle-aged man took the money and turned to leave, Lin Yifeng took out another fifty yuan.

“Tell me everything you know about the meat processing plant, and everything you know about the fried chicken burgers and Manager Ma.”

"This fifty yuan is yours!"

The 50 yuan made the bald middle-aged man's breathing quicken.

He made his mother take pills and endured excruciating pain to cause trouble at Wallace's, all for that fifty dollars.

Now, all he has to do is tell the boy in front of him some things about the meat processing plant, and he can get fifty yuan.

The bald middle-aged man took another deep breath, then peered over the corner onto another street. After looking around, he led Lin Yifeng behind a hidden tree and spoke.
