"Why don't you run away? I'll stop this old man for you this time."
However, Lin Zhou was left speechless, both amused and exasperated by these words.
He just doesn't understand, he's only selling tea eggs!
Why is he running?
Even if it's a little expensive.
But the things that passed through his hands were at least good value for money.
Besides, these tea eggs are clearly priced...
Lin Zhou wanted to say a few words.
But he quickly shook his head with a wry smile.
"Forget it, forget it, let's wait for the police to arrive before we talk about it."
Even if it's just a regular tea egg.
Could it be that just because it was a little expensive, I'd end up in jail?
Of all the people out there, Uncle Ding was the most helpless.
He just drives a car...
How did it end up like this?
They saw the old man blocking the doorway, glaring at them menacingly.
Uncle Ding finally understood.
have to.
The departure time today will definitely be later than usual.
Fortunately, this was a town bus.
There are basically no set departure times.
It doesn't matter if it's a little earlier or a little later.
There were some other passengers on the bus, though.
They were all elderly men and women.
He also commented on what had just happened.
"You're definitely a bit dark-skinned, young man."
"Exactly! Where can you sell tea eggs for such an exorbitant price!"
"Even if you took this abroad, it wouldn't sell for this much, would it?"
"Could it be that these tea eggs are imported?"
Lin Zhou: "..."
Lin Zhou didn't react much, but the old man became even more excited by the voices of support.
Let's not say they're full of fighting spirit.
At least for this moment, he was righteous and awe-inspiring.
His eyes widened considerably.
Fortunately, this situation did not last long.
Before long, a whooshing sound came from outside.
Shortly after, a police car pulled up in front of the shuttle bus.
Two policemen got out of the car.
The police officer had just walked toward the shuttle bus.
The old man was extremely excited.
"I called the police! I shook the person!"
Upon hearing this, the policeman's lips twitched slightly, and he quickly got into his car.
He started talking as soon as he got in the car.
"What happened?"
Upon hearing this, the old man...
He immediately pointed at Lin Zhou and recounted what had just happened.
They even added fuel to the fire during the process.
"It's so dark! It's so dark! Even on the first day of the Lunar New Year, it's not this dark! It's lucky that I ran into them. If it were anyone else, they wouldn't even ask and would just take the tea eggs first. Then they would ask someone for ten yuan later. That would be terrible!"
"If he dares to sell it for ten yuan today, he'll dare to sell it for a hundred tomorrow! The day after tomorrow, he'll dare to sell it for a thousand, and the day after that..."
Lin Zhou once again.
"..."
He felt that what the old man was saying wasn't just selling tea eggs, but making profits on a tangible basis.
Fortunately, even the police officers nearby couldn't stand it anymore.
He quickly waved his hand.
He already knew roughly what had happened before he arrived, based on the old man's explanation and the few words spoken by the other people in the car.
The police officer already had a general idea of what was going on.
Then he walked up to Lin Zhou.
I couldn't help but say.
"You're charging ten yuan for these tea eggs? That's a bit expensive! This isn't how you do business..."
Hearing this, Lin Zhou said helplessly.
"I clearly stated my price, it wasn't like I was forcing anyone to buy or sell! Who knew this old man would call the police? Don't you think I'm being wronged?"
The policeman in front of him nodded upon hearing this.
He asked in an instant.
"There was absolutely no forced sale?"
Lin Zhou quickly waved his hand.
"That's not true at all!"
The policeman said.
"As long as there's no forced buying or selling! Forced buying and selling is illegal..."
After a pause, the policeman continued.
"But the price of your tea eggs is outrageous. How much do regular tea eggs cost? You didn't force anyone to buy them, but in most people's eyes, how much do tea eggs cost? If someone buys one from you without asking, how can you charge them ten yuan? That doesn't make sense."
"that is!"
The old man chimed in from the side.
He looked indignant.
Lin Zhou, feeling helpless, spoke up.
"So, when this old man asked, I told him the price first! I didn't just hand him the tea eggs right away! And although my tea eggs are expensive, they're definitely worth the price; ten yuan each is actually a bargain for me..."
The policeman nodded slightly as he listened to Lin Zhou's words.
It's reasonable to discuss the price first and then offer the tea eggs.
This prevents others from unknowingly spending money unnecessarily.
But then Lin Zhou said...
What kind of tea egg costs ten yuan and is considered a great deal?
"You think ten yuan is cheap?"
The police officer in front of him was a little unhappy.
He reached into his wallet, pulled out ten yuan, and handed it to Lin Zhou.
He spoke at the same time.
"Ten yuan and you think it's a great deal? Okay, give me one! Let's see if it's the same as what you said!"
He was determined that if this wasn't worth every penny, he would make sure to get Lin Zhou into the police station for a verbal reprimand!
