"No, this is not right!"
Old Wang ran over in a panic, grabbed Manager Zhang's wrist, snatched the banknote from him, and said excitedly.
"You can't give it to her! The 1,500 taels of silver in here are mine. They're what Shopkeeper Zhang just borrowed from me. This is the money I need to buy the land."
As he spoke, he did not forget to bow in the direction of Master Kong.
"Mr. Kong, I'm not giving you face. Money is my life. Please don't blame me."
Seeing that Mr. Wang was so anxious that he almost peed his pants, Manager Zhang rolled his eyes at him.
He was not in a hurry to snatch the banknotes back because he knew that since Mr. Kong had shown up, Mr. Wang would not be able to take the money away even if he worked himself to death.
He denied it coldly.
"When did I ever ask you for money? It was you who wanted to dampen their spirits and volunteered to gamble. You lost the 1,500 taels to her, and it has nothing to do with me."
Old Wang didn't expect that Manager Zhang would turn against him. He was so angry that he couldn't speak clearly and pointed at Manager Zhang and said.
"You...you...you're bullshit! You were the one who borrowed the money from me just now. So many people saw it. It's no use for you to deny it. Everyone can vouch for me."
Shopkeeper Zhang was not at all panicked. He looked around and asked loudly.
"Who can prove that I borrowed the money from him? Is there anyone?"
He didn't give anyone a chance to speak and continued.
"Think carefully! You need evidence to testify. Did you hear me borrow money from him, or did you see me write him an IOU? If there's nothing, then don't get involved. You'll only end up getting yourself into trouble and ruining the relationship."
There was a clear threat in Manager Zhang's tone.
After these words were spoken, even those who were eager to testify for Mr. Wang backed off.
At that time, Manager Zhang and Mr. Wang were talking in a very low voice, and they indeed did not hear Manager Zhang mention that he wanted to borrow money from Mr. Wang. Even if someone speculated that Manager Zhang had borrowed money from Mr. Wang, it would be useless without evidence.
What's more, most people just want to watch the fun and don't want to get involved at all, so as not to get into trouble.
After saying this, Shopkeeper Zhang patted Mr. Wang on the shoulder fearlessly.
"Mr. Wang, don't forget that I still know your little secret. It won't do you any good to break up with you."
Both secrets and money are important.
Seeing that no one could testify for him, Mr. Wang looked to Mr. Kong for help.
He rushed over and knelt down in front of Mr. Kong, holding Mr. Kong's thigh and said.
"Master Kong, this money was really borrowed from me by Shopkeeper Zhang. I have no other options now. Only you can help me. Please help me make the decision."
Mr. Kong snorted coldly.
"You remember me now? If it weren't for you, would there have been such a big mess today? You two have disgraced the entire county. I don't care about your business. Give them the money first, and you can solve your own business after this is over."
It's over, Mr. Kong doesn't care about him anymore.
His heart suddenly turned cold.
He knew that no one could help him or save him now.
At this moment, he had completely lost his previous aggressive mood and desire to teach others a lesson.
There was only one sentence left in his mind.
The money was gone, and he was finished.
He didn't have time to think about it and made a decision immediately.
He roared.
"Manager Zhang, you bastard, you even lied to me. I'm going to fight you!"
He pretended to fight, rushed forward and shoved the shopkeeper Zhang hard, cursing.
In fact, he wanted to take advantage of the fact that Manager Zhang was unstable and everyone's attention was on him to escape.
At this moment, many people subconsciously went to help Shopkeeper Zhang. He quickly put the banknotes in his pocket, turned around, pushed through the crowd and prepared to run.
No matter what, he just wanted to run away with the money first, and he couldn't think about anything else.
However, ideals are full and reality is skinny.
At this moment, someone suddenly grabbed his collar from behind.
Suddenly, I felt suffocated.
"Hmm."
Who is it, so fast?
He was caught before he could even start running.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yunfei's voice reached his ears. The voice seemed to come from hell, and it made his back feel cold.
"It's already this late and you still dare to run?"
The answer is that he doesn't dare, but the problem is that he can't think of any other way except running.
Old Wang wanted to beg Xiao Yunfei to let him go, but his neck was strangled by his clothes and he couldn't speak at all. He could only whimper in pain.
"Wuwuwu, I was wrong, please let me go, I haven't lived enough."
In fact, not only Xiao Yunfei was staring at Old Wang, but Mr. Kong's men were also staring at Old Wang. Just now when Old Wang was about to run away, Mr. Kong's men also took action, but their actions were not as fast as Xiao Yunfei's.
At this moment, Master Kong saw that Old Wang's face turned blue and purple, and he was about to suffocate to death. He walked to Xiao Yunfei, patted Xiao Yunfei's arm and tried to persuade him.
"Alright young man, let him go first. This is not something that will cause any loss of life."
Xiao Yunfei glanced at Mr. Kong out of the corner of his eye, then let go of his hand without warning.
After being freed from his restraints, Mr. Wang fell to the ground like an autumn leaf. He lay on the ground with his eyes wide open, covering his neck and breathing heavily.
Mr. Kong bent down and took out four thousand taels of silver from Mr. Wang's pocket. He smoothed out the silver that had become a little wrinkled during the struggle and handed it to Xiao Yunfei.
"Young man, take these four thousand taels of silver."
Xiao Yunfei didn't know where the other party came from. He took the money and put it in his pocket, his attitude polite yet distant.
"Thank you, Master Kong, for helping to stabilize the situation just now."
"These are all minor matters. You don't have to worry about them. To be honest, I have high hopes for you two. I wonder if I could invite you and your family to my house later."
Xiao Yunfei didn't know what Mr. Kong wanted to do by inviting him to his home, but judging from the current situation, it might not be a good idea if he didn't agree.
Mr. Kong seems to have some power in the local area. If the other party wants to do something bad to him, he is now on someone else's territory, and there is no difference between going to his home and staying in this store.
Of course, if the other party is really interested in making friends with him, that would be even better. More connections mean more paths, and there is no harm in having more friends.
So he nodded and said.
"Of course, it's my pleasure. Let me take care of things here for now."
When Mr. Kong saw that Xiao Yunfei agreed, he nodded with satisfaction, raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation, asking Xiao Yunfei to do as he pleased.
"Well, it's time to end this farce. I'm here to settle the score with you."
Xiao Yunfei was full of vigor. As he spoke, he walked up to Manager Zhang and Old Wang, and casually picked up a chair and placed it in front of them.
Just when everyone thought he was going to sit down, Xiao Yunfei winked at Su Miaomiao beside him, his voice low and gentle.
"Wife, you must be exhausted. Please sit here."
Su Miaomiao was indeed a little tired.
So she showed her affection in public, and Xiao Yunfei took her hand and helped her sit steadily on the chair.
Xiao Yunfei stood beside Su Miaomiao and asked as he looked at the two people standing in front of him.
"Which of you two will go first?"
Manager Zhang and Mr. Wang looked at each other and were displeased with each other.
