Chapter 51 Tiger waited for a very, very long time…
Tiger had been waiting for a long, long time. It had been sleeping soundly in its soft nest when it suddenly heard someone call its name. Its ears immediately perked up, and it looked up at Shen Lang.
Shen Lang stood at the door: "Tiger, let's go."
Tiger picked up the leash again and ran happily to Shen Lang.
Shen Lang put on the leash, opened the door, and led Hu Zi out.
He was feeling refreshed and energetic, able to run three kilometers with Tiger without even breaking a sweat.
Jiang Can, on the other hand, was completely exhausted. Lying in the soft quilt, she didn't want to move a single finger and fell asleep almost instantly with her eyes closed.
After running around with Hu Zi for a while, Shen Lang took a shower when he got back, and then happily went to sleep with his beautiful wife in his arms.
The 21st day of the twelfth lunar month.
The warm sun shone through the gaps in the curtains, illuminating the room and Jiang Can's face. She turned over, unwilling to get out of bed.
I stayed up until late last night, and now I feel sore and weak, I haven't had enough sleep.
She drank some wine yesterday, but she wasn't drunk. She knows everything that happened.
That's just too...unrestrained.
Shen Lang woke up as well, pulled her into his arms, and was satisfied to be able to hold his wife after waking up.
The two lingered in bed for a while, but Jiang Can worried that if they didn't get up soon, they might not be able to get up at all. Although she was a little tired, she still resolutely got out of bed.
While getting dressed, she saw her silk high-slit nightgown crumpled up on the floor, torn in several places, along with large stockings next to it. She instantly remembered what happened last night, and her cheeks turned bright red. She picked it up and threw it in the trash can.
Shen Lang looked over and thought of yesterday. Sigh, he felt he hadn't bought enough clothes.
I'll be more careful next time and won't tear it...
Jiang Can looked at the treasures in the wooden box again and found two more property certificates. When he opened them, he found a warehouse on the outskirts of Liao County and a mountain!
Shen Lang: "This is a small warehouse of a cotton mill, with two acres of land and a mountain next to it, planted with orchards. I liked the look of it, so I bought the mountain too. If your hot pot restaurant wants to expand its market and set up a food factory to produce hot pot base, various meatballs, dried meat, etc., you can build the factory here. There is enough space, and it's not too remote, so it's very suitable. If you don't have that plan, just keep the land for now; you definitely won't lose money."
Jiang Can pondered Shen Lang's words repeatedly, growing more and more aroused! She hugged Shen Lang and gave him a big kiss, "I'll think about it."
We need to investigate the market situation, see what similar foods are available, and also discuss it with Xu Rao.
Jiang Can had something on his mind and couldn't wait to go to the Flaming Mountain Hot Pot Restaurant to do some research with Xu Rao, but he had to have breakfast first.
Jiang Can went to the kitchen to cook when someone knocked on the door. Shen Lang went to open it and saw Xu Rao.
After a long time, Xu Rao looked even more beautiful than before. Her hair was permed into big waves and dyed burgundy. She wore makeup, bright red lipstick, a woolen coat, and high-heeled boots.
She swayed as she walked in and immediately hugged Jiang Can: "My God of Wealth, you're finally back."
Jiang Can was a little dumbfounded. "Aren't you cold?"
Xu Rao: "I'm not cold! Can Can, you're a big star now, why are you still so plain? I'll take you to get your hair permed later."
Shen Lang complained, "No wonder it's cold."
Xu Rao: "It's not cold at all!" She couldn't help but shiver. Hmm, it was all fake cold.
Jiang Can touched her hand, speechless. "Your hand is like an ice pop. Ah Lang, make a cup of brown sugar water with two slices of ginger." He then asked Xu Rao if she had eaten.
Xu Rao felt so comfortable from Jiang Can's warm hands. She said, "I haven't eaten yet. I just came here to freeload! I just rode my motorcycle here, and my hands are a little cold, but I'm not cold at all."
Shen Lang was speechless. Riding a motorcycle in the dead of winter wearing a woolen coat, how come you didn't freeze to death? He went to the kitchen to get a cup and made Xu Rao a cup of brown sugar water first.
Jiang Can rubbed her hands together: "Oh my, you bought a motorcycle? Congratulations!"
Xu Rao: "It's not as good as the factory director's wife's family, they can drive a car. I'll buy a motorcycle first."
Jiang Can: "..."
Yes, she is now the factory director's wife. Shen Lang is the factory director of Chaomei Cotton Mill.
Shen Lang handed the enamel mug to Xu Rao.
Xu Rao looked flattered and said, "Oh dear, how could I trouble Director Shen to pour me some water?" However, she took the cup very quickly, held the hot water cup, and took a small sip of brown sugar water, which finally warmed her up a bit.
Shen Lang went to the kitchen to check on the pots and pans.
Jiang Can said to Xu Rao, "What's the point of being the factory director's wife? It's not as good as being the factory director. Boss Xu, do you want to be the factory director?"
Xu Rao: "!!! Tell me more?"
Jiang Can told Xu Rao about the food factory, and Xu Rao slammed her hand on the table, "I think it's a good idea! After you've eaten, let's go to the market and see what good food they have. I often see my cousin asking me for money to buy Wahaha, Tang Seng meat, hawthorn candy, jelly, elixirs and the like. I also love spicy strips, just as much as the chicken feet and spicy duck heads in our shop."
The two discussed it for a long time, but ultimately came up with no clues. This was mainly because their understanding of the subject was indeed limited, and they needed to go out and see for themselves, preferably by visiting a food factory.
Xu Rao handed two ledgers to Jiang Can: "These are the ledgers for the head office and branch offices for the past few months. Take a look."
Jiang Can took the ledger and first looked at the profits of the Flaming Mountain branch.
The Flaming Mountain branch had a turnover of 80,000 yuan and a net profit of 63,000 yuan in November. The turnover in December was not much different from that in November, with a daily turnover of almost 2,600 yuan. However, in January, the daily turnover dropped to around 2,000 yuan, and occasionally even less than 2,000 yuan.
It is evident that this was influenced by the Flaming Mountain flagship store.
Xu Rao: "The main store has better decoration and a wider variety of dishes, which has indeed drawn away some of the customers from the branches. In addition, the main store has private rooms, which are the favorite place for young people to eat and drink."
The head office's accounts look very good, with daily turnover reaching 4,000 yuan. In the past few days, with the Chinese New Year approaching, many people who went out to work have returned, and daily turnover is approaching 5,000 yuan.
Xu Rao took out an envelope from her bag. It was so bulging it looked like it was about to burst. She said, "This is the branch's profit sharing for November and December. It's a total of 38,000 yuan. Please count it."
Jiang Can happily received the money and counted it; it was exactly 38,000 yuan, no more, no less.
She signed the profit-sharing slip, indicating that she had received the money.
Shen Lang also brought out a bowl of pork rib noodles, one large bowl for each person, sprinkled with cilantro and scallions, making it very appetizing.
Jiang Can put the money in the drawer, washed his hands, and ate his meal.
The bowl was full of pork ribs. After finishing the noodles, they gnawed on the meat with gusto, and finally gave all the bones to Tiger, who was already full.
Xu Rao: "Come on, I'll take you to see the shop." Jiang Can put on a down jacket, scarf, and hat, then took a long beige down jacket and forced it on Xu Rao, also tying a large red scarf and hat around her neck.
Xu Rao stubbornly insisted, "I'm not cold, I won't wear it. This hat is messing up my hairstyle."
Jiang Can ignored her and took her hand, saying, "Of course it's not cold inside, the heating is so strong. Let's go, I'm sweating." As they left, he told Shen Lang, "Remember to walk Tiger later, I'm going to check on the shop."
She spent two months on the film set, and now she has no idea what the situation is like in the store.
Shen Lang was just dumped by his beautiful wife! He was planning to take her to the movies today!
Jiang Can patted Hu Zi's head again: "Good boy, I'll walk you tonight, and Shen Lang will walk you later."
Tiger licked her hand, wagged its tail and watched her leave. After the gate closed, it looked at Shen Lang with disappointment, then bit the leash, carried the dog over, and waited for Shen Lang.
Shen Lang: "Idiot!"
Xu Rao and Jiang Can went downstairs hand in hand. As soon as they stepped out of the building, they felt a cool breeze. Xu Rao didn't feel cold, though; the down jacket was really warm and the scarf and hat were really windproof.
This down jacket is so warm that you don't want to take it off once you put it on.
Why is it so warm?
A flashy motorcycle was parked downstairs in the apartment building, its red and black color scheme was incredibly cool! Xu Rao walked over, patted the motorcycle, and said, "How about it? Not bad, right?"
Jiang Can nodded: "Handsome!"
Xu Rao also thought it looked cool, but being so covered up, it wasn't cool enough to ride a motorcycle. She stepped on and called Jiang Can to get on.
Jiang Can sat in the back, holding Xu Rao's waist. After they were settled, the motorcycle shot off with a whoosh.
Jiang Can leaned back instinctively and quickly shouted, "Slow down!"
Xu Rao: "Don't worry, I'm very good at riding a bike!"
First, I went to the commercial buildings downstairs in Ruyi City. Several stores had already opened there, selling food and clothes. One storefront on the left side of the entrance had a sign that read "Hongyun Supermarket".
This is a residential property that Shen Lang and Jiang Can bought, with plans to open a supermarket there.
Shen Lang also set it up and now he's hired people to look after the shop.
Jiang Can and Xu Rao got off the motorcycle and went inside, just in time to see a young couple coming out carrying a bag of things.
Jiang Can and Xu Rao walked into the store. The store was quite cold as the heating was off. A young man in his early twenties wearing a cotton-padded coat stood behind the counter and greeted them with a smile, "Ladies, what do you need? We have everything you need in our store, from food and drinks to daily necessities."
Jiang Can: "I want to buy some snacks." She looked around the supermarket. It was very clean. A row of cabinets near the entrance was full of food, including various canned goods, instant noodles, Wahaha (a popular Chinese beverage brand), jelly, hawthorn candy, and a small amount of fruits that could be stored, such as apples, bananas, and oranges. They even had chicken feet and duck parts.
The young man smiled and said, "Look at these chicken feet and duck parts, ladies. They're from a big restaurant. We only have this much each day, and once they're sold out, they're gone. They're fresh and delicious." He then handed two small chicken feet to Jiang Can and Xu Rao to try.
Jiang Can tasted it and found it to be fresh, so he bought five yuan's worth.
The shelves opposite mainly sell daily necessities such as rice, flour, cooking oil, soy sauce, vinegar, and sugar. A middle-aged woman was watching the counter and knitting a sweater. When she saw Jiang Can come over, she put the sweater on a chair on the floor and asked with a smile, "Young lady, what do you need?"
Jiang Can looked around for a while but didn't ask for anything. The aunt still smiled and said, "Come again if you need anything."
Since the two came in, quite a few more customers have arrived, and most of them have bought quite a lot of things. Both waiters were very nice, especially the young man, whose words were as sweet as honey.
As the two left the supermarket, Xu Rao exclaimed, "Your supermarket is doing quite well. The storefront is impressive!" She couldn't help but praise, "Can Can, your man is truly amazing! He can do anything! He can run a large factory, and he's even managed to make this small supermarket look quite successful!"
Jiang Can nodded: "I also think A Lang is amazing. It was A Lang who reminded me to open a food factory. There aren't many kinds of snacks right now, he's very capable!"
Xu Rao: "Of course we can. People often ask us if we sell hot pot base and various kinds of meatballs. As long as there is a place to buy them, we will definitely not have trouble selling them."
By the time the two arrived at the Flaming Mountain Hot Pot restaurant, it was already past ten o'clock.
Jiang Can followed Xu Rao into the hot pot restaurant. As soon as they entered, a young girl at the door greeted them with a smile, "Sister Xu, Sister Jiang."
This waiter was transferred from the Flaming Mountain branch; his name is Liu Shuangxi, and he is now the manager of the Flaming Mountain main store.
It was only a little past ten o'clock, and there were already two tables of customers eating in the lobby on the first floor. They were all stylishly dressed young people.
The restaurant was very warm. Xu Rao and Jiang Can took off their coats, scarves, and hats. Liu Shuangxi took the coats and hung them on the clothes rack behind the cashier.
The decor is beautiful and comfortable. The chairs are all sofa chairs, soft and with backrests. The chairs can be flipped up to put clothes and bags inside.
Imagine having a meal with friends, chatting and eating hot pot while leaning back in your chairs – it sounds so wonderful.
As for the tableware, needless to say, it was all selected by Xu Rao after comparing prices from several stores. It is very popular among young people, with cartoon cups, small bowls and plates that are very playful.
Jiang Can followed Xu Rao upstairs to the second floor and went to see the private rooms. The largest private room could seat twelve people, and the smaller private room could seat six people.
Of course, if you squeeze in, you can definitely seat more people.
Xu Rao led Jiang Can into the largest private room, 'Ronghua Hall': "These days, the private rooms are basically booked in advance. The hotel will reserve two rooms for regular customers. This room is hard to book; it's already booked until the second day of the Lunar New Year."
In addition to the 'Ronghua Hall', there are also the Jixiang Hall, Ruyi Hall, Gongcheng Hall, Fulu Hall, Fugui Hall, Huahao Hall, and Yueyuan Hall.
Basically, I just choose names that sound good.
The room was beautiful and exceptionally clean.
Xu Rao said with a smile, "The sanitation here is all done according to Sister Peng's requirements. Everyone wants to snatch Sister Peng away to be the sanitation manager."
Sister Peng at Jiangji Restaurant is truly a clean person and cannot tolerate even the slightest bit of dirt.
Finally, I checked out the kitchen, which is the most important part. Whether a restaurant is doing well or not depends entirely on this. If the food isn't good, no matter how nice the decor is, no one will come to eat.
Xu Rao kept a very strict eye on this aspect. Cleanliness and hygiene were the most basic requirements. The ingredients were provided by Xia Wen and Liu Anqi, ensuring that the best batch was given priority to Huoyanshan.
Finally, Jiang Can and Xu Rao sat down at a table by the window downstairs, and Jiang Can had to try the food.
There were already eight tables occupied downstairs. The hot pot restaurant was bustling with activity, steam rising and filling the air with the aroma of spicy and savory flavors. Jiang Can even felt a little hungry.
The two ordered a spicy hot pot and a lot of other dishes, all of which were half portions.
If there are only a few people and they have small appetites, they can order half portions.
Jiang Can praised Xu Rao for being so capable of running the restaurant so well, to which she replied, "I'm really making money while lying down."
Xu Rao shook her head: "Can Can, many people can do what I do. But people come here to eat hot pot because of the taste! All the flavors are brought by you. Our broth is better than others, our secret-recipe meat is a must-order at every table, and we are often asked if we can sell our various meatballs separately. Everyone loves our spicy and sour chicken feet and various side dishes."
Jiang Can: "Then I'll continue researching the dishes."
Xu Rao: "I will manage it well."
The two laughed together and said, "Let's get rich together!"
There were a lot of people around, so after a while, the copper stove was brought out first, and then the waiters brought out various dishes one after another.
You can get your own hot pot ingredients at the condiment station. Common seasonings are available, such as peanut sauce, sesame paste, chili sauce, crushed sesame and peanuts, minced garlic, cilantro, chopped green onions, oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar. Mix and match as you like.
Jiang Can mixed one portion for himself and one portion for Xu Rao.
Xu Rao tasted the sauce and exclaimed in surprise, "The sauce you made is even better than the one I make myself!"
Jiang Can: "I'll make a recipe and post it here later."
The two ate meat first. Jiang Can hadn't eaten it for two months and missed the taste! The secret-recipe beef slices coated in butter were dipped in the sauce and then put into their mouths. They couldn't get enough of it.
The beef balls are chewy and bouncy; one bite and they're bursting with juicy goodness.
The shrimp paste is incredibly satisfying, with a mouthful of fresh and sweet shrimp meat.
Jiang Can tried all the dishes, finding them delicious and fresh, thoroughly satisfying his cravings, and kept praising how delicious they were.
She praised it as delicious, which shows she was genuinely satisfied.
Xu Rao was also very happy and ate happily.
Outside, there was a rumbling noise. Four young men on motorcycles stopped at the entrance, each with a stylishly dressed young woman on the back. They got off the motorcycles and walked into the store.
Liu Shuangxi greeted them warmly: "Young Master Liu, Young Master Zhang, Young Master Zhou, Young Master Jiang, please come upstairs."
The four young masters were dressed in leather jackets and coats, paired with jeans and leather shoes. Their ankles were slightly exposed, suggesting they weren't even wearing thermal underwear. Their shirts were also thin, revealing the bright watches on their wrists.
One of the young men, wearing a long gown, rolled up his sleeves and looked at his large gold watch: "It's past eleven o'clock, no wonder I'm so hungry!" He moved closer to Xu Rao and put his hand on the back of the chair behind her: "Ms. Xu, having dinner with friends? What's your sister's name? She's really pretty."
Xu Rao laughed, "Young Master Zhou's gold watch is so extravagant! It makes this restaurant look even more magnificent." She pointed to Jiang Can and introduced her, "This is my sister, Jiang Can, who is also the owner of the restaurant. Go eat if you're hungry, we've reserved a private room for you."
Zhou Shao snapped his fingers: "The owners of Flaming Mountain are all so beautiful! Let's go up there." He even winked at Jiang Can.
A group of people chatted and laughed as they went upstairs.
Xu Rao whispered, "These young masters are all rich second-generation heirs who have benefited from land expropriation. They've contributed a lot to our revenue, with each meal costing between five hundred and a thousand."
A bunch of rich kids who love to spend money after their land was demolished—the more the merrier! We're giving them all our money.
Jiang Can laughed: "No wonder you're not afraid of the cold! So you're not afraid of the cold even when riding a motorcycle. I've seen young girls riding motorcycles who aren't afraid of the cold either."
Xu Rao: "..."
Only those who are cold know how cold it is; the lips of this group of people were all frozen purple.
As the number of guests increased, some people wanted private rooms but hadn't booked in advance, so they had to eat downstairs.
A man wearing a large gold chain was embracing a woman, with five or six other men beside them. They were making a fuss about wanting a private room and didn't want to sit on the first floor.
If he had come earlier, there would still be a private room available. But now it's completely full. The private rooms are just starting to fill up, and the earliest table to start eating has only just begun. The turnover rate in the private rooms is even lower, so you can basically eat until mid-afternoon.
Liu Shuangxi came over with a smile to comfort the man, and a few words were enough to make the man with the big gold chain happy. He said he would call ahead next time he came.
By 12:30, a queue had already formed outside.
Because it was winter and quite cold, a shed was set up outside. Inside the shed, there was a coal stove, and peanuts, melon seeds, tea, and playing cards were provided. Everyone was willing to wait.
Jiang Can and Xu Rao had finished eating and gave up their seats for the other guests, sitting at the cashier to chat.
A woman in her thirties walked in, her belly protruding; she looked to be five or six months pregnant. The waiter greeted her with a smile: "Ma'am, how many are in your party?"
The pregnant woman smiled and said, "My husband is over there, I'll go find him." She walked a short distance forward and came to a round table against the wall on the first floor, the same table where the man with the big gold chain had just asked for a private room.
The man with the big gold chain was enraged when he saw the pregnant woman. He slapped her across the face, and she staggered a few steps, almost falling.
She clutched her stomach and cried, "Old Liang, drink less! You just bought a motorcycle, you can't drink while riding one." Then she said to the others, "Don't try to persuade Old Liang to drink. What will we do if something happens to him?"
The man with the big gold chain got even angrier, picked up his glass and downed it in one gulp, yelling, "Damn it, get out of here!"
The woman beside him continued pouring wine in a coquettish voice: "Sister-in-law, you're such a busybody. Brother Liang comes out drinking, and you don't let him enjoy himself. Brother Liang is so capable, he can drive a motorcycle with his eyes closed."
The pregnant woman sobbed, "Old Liang, I beg you, please don't drink it anymore."
The waiter couldn't stand it and tried to pull the pregnant woman away, but she refused. The waiter then brought her a plastic stool and made her a cup of brown sugar and egg tea.
She was pregnant in the freezing cold.
The man with the thick gold chain glared at the waitress and scolded her for being nosy.
The waiter quickly ran over and said a few words to Liu Shuangxi, who nodded and said, "Go ahead and get busy."
After the pregnant woman drank the egg tea, she was repeatedly advised not to drink alcohol, as it is bad for her health. She was told to eat more instead.
But the people at the table wouldn't listen to her at all; the more she tried to persuade them, the more they drank.
The pregnant woman pleaded tearfully, "Old Liang, please don't ride your motorcycle after drinking."
Old Liang was furious. He kicked the pregnant woman, who fell to the ground, clutching her stomach and crying, "Old Liang, don't ride your motorcycle anymore. I'll push it home for you."
Old Liang was furious and immediately smashed a bottle of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor): "Damn it, I can't even enjoy a meal. Today I'm going to ride my motorcycle. Get lost, brothers, let's keep drinking."
The waiter came over again to help the pregnant woman up and move her to one side, but she wouldn't cooperate and couldn't be pulled away at all.
What kind of mess is this?
The people eating nearby were also very angry. He was out eating and drinking with his mistress while his wife was pregnant, and he still dared to do this.
Liu Shuangxi sidled up to Jiang Can and Xu Rao and whispered gossip: "Their house isn't far from theirs; they're also from a demolition compensation program. Now they run a clothing store, all run by women. This woman has a daughter, and everyone says her belly is round, so it must be another girl. That guy surnamed Liang is a scoundrel; he beats his wife every day and wants her to abort the child. This woman is stubborn; she manages the family business. Recently, she's worried that Liang bought a motorcycle, fearing something might happen to him, so she follows him around every day, preventing him from drinking or riding the motorcycle while drunk."
Jiang Can felt something was off.
This isn't advising you to drink less, it's advising you to drink more!
Drunk driving a motorcycle?
This is incredibly foolish!
Don't drag their restaurant down with you.
Jiang Can: "Shuangxi, that table, don't give them any more alcohol. Just say they're out of drinks and advise them that it's not safe to ride a motorcycle while drinking."
Xu Rao looked at Jiang Can, seemingly lost in thought.
When the group of people with the big gold chain ordered Erguotou again, Liu Shuangxi went over to greet them and said that there was no more alcohol.
The man with the big gold chain immediately flew into a rage, pointing at the counter and yelling, "That whole counter of liquor, and you're saying there's no liquor left? Who do you think you are?" He was about to flip the table.
Liu Shuangxi's face immediately turned cold. "If you flip the table, I'll have to send you to the police station." She clapped her hands, and seven or eight male waiters ran over. Each of them was over 1.8 meters tall and looked like they could fight.
The guy with the big gold chain was furious, but he calmed down; he was a bully who preyed on the weak.
Liu Shuangxi then advised, "It's not safe to ride a motorcycle after drinking. We really don't have any more alcohol in the store today."
The pregnant woman also cried and pleaded, "Old Liang, please don't drink today, and please don't go drinking at other people's houses."
The man with the big gold chain yelled, "Fuck your mother, get lost!" He even raised his foot to kick the man.
The two waiters quickly pulled the pregnant woman away, and the man with the big gold chain kicked the plastic stool, smashing it to pieces.
That shows how hard he used his strength.
The guy with the big gold chain: "Check, please! I'm going somewhere else to drink, I'm never coming back to this lousy place again."
The mistress clung to the man's arm, her chest rubbing against his arm: "Brother Liang, we're never coming here again!"
After paying, the group stormed off in a huff.
They didn't even bother with the leftover dishes, and there were still several meat dishes untouched.
The waitress asked, "Would you like it to go?"
The pregnant woman shook her head, clutching her stomach, and followed behind the group of men with thick gold chains. The waiter stopped her again, saying, "Please don't follow them, be careful of your stomach."
The pregnant woman shook her head with tears in her eyes, but still followed them out.
The group hadn't had enough to drink. The man with the gold chain got on his motorcycle, his mistress sat behind him, and the man with the gold chain put her arm around his waist. The man with the gold chain rode the motorcycle to a barbecue restaurant ahead.
The others followed on their bicycles.
The pregnant woman was running behind, looking particularly pitiful.
Liu Shuangxi reassured the other guests, "I'm really sorry for affecting everyone's dining experience. Flame Mountain will provide each table with a complimentary serving of spicy chicken feet."
Everyone was very happy.
A middle-aged man at the next table chuckled and asked, "Manager Liu, can we have some more drinks for our table?"
Liu Shuangxi said, "Director Chen came by car, of course he can drink. Would you like a few more bottles?" She smiled and livened up the atmosphere, making the restaurant lively again.
This table was quickly cleared up, and another table of guests was invited in.
By 3 p.m., the first floor had quieted down, with only one or two tables of people still eating and chatting.
Jiang Can and Xu Rao were also preparing to leave. Jiang Can still had to check on the situation at Jiang's Restaurant. Before leaving, he instructed Liu Shuangxi, "If that customer surnamed Liang comes again, don't sell him any more wine."
Liu Shuangxi didn't quite understand, but she nodded and said, "Don't worry, Sister Jiang, I've got it." She brought over the two bosses' clothes. Before Jiang Can and Xu Rao had even finished dressing, they heard a loud 'bang' outside, followed by screams.
The waiter on the first floor peeked out, and what he saw shocked him. He screamed, "Someone's dead!"
Jiang Can's heart skipped a beat; his first thought was that something had happened to the big gold chain!
A crowd had already gathered at the intersection. Jiang Can and Xu Rao also went over to see what was happening. The loud noise was the sound of a motorcycle hitting a roadside utility pole.
The motorcycles are now scattered, and a woman covered in blood has fallen five or six meters away, her face scraped raw. She is struggling, crying out, "Help! Help!"
Seven or eight meters away lay a fat man covered in blood, his neck twisted and bent beneath him.
A pregnant woman ran out of the barbecue restaurant, crying as she ran. She tripped once and was helped up, but continued running forward, throwing herself onto the fat man. "Old Liang, Old Liang, wake up! What will I do if you leave! Quick, take Old Liang to the hospital! Old Liang, your head, your head..."
She wept bitterly, shaking the man with the big gold chain by the shoulder. His head, like cartilage, swayed back and forth, spurting blood everywhere. She tried to cover the man's neck, crying, "Old Liang."
Everyone was moved to tears.
That's terrible.
He's in such a state, he must be dead.
The pregnant woman hugged the man with the thick gold chain and wept bitterly, almost fainting from crying. Suddenly, she went berserk, picked up a wooden stick from the roadside, and hurled it at the men, yelling, "It's all your fault! You killed Lao Liang! If you hadn't pressured him to drink, Lao Liang wouldn't have died! I hate you! I hate you!"
The men were also drunk, and when they were hit, they covered their heads and ran away, not daring to fight back at all.
They killed Brother Liang, and they were all trembling with fear.
The mistress lay on the ground, panting, "Help me, help me."
The sound grew weaker and weaker, indicating that more air was being taken in than being exhaled.
